900 CHILDREN SAVED
BY PERFECT DRILL
Fire Broke Out in South Manchester,
Conn, Schoolhouse, Destroyed That
and Wiped Out Seven Other
Structures.

South Manchester, Conn, Oct "a. -
Fire which started in a waste basket of
the ninth district school yesterday after
noon destroyed the building, a three
story pine structure, just after the 900
school children had marched out of fire
escape doors in perfect order. The
flames then swept to the public library
adjoining and thence to other buildings,
burning in all eight structures and dam
aging six Others. The estimated loss
is 100000.
The school house burned with astonish-
ing rapidity. If it had not been properly
equipped with fire escapes, heavy loss
of life probably would have resulted.
The 10000 volumes in the public IL
brary were saved and by an endless
chain, each person carrying armfuls of
books. With several buildings burning
simultaneously, help was summoned
from Hartford, and the fire apparatus
from that city aided in subduing the
fire which ragged nearly four hours before
being controlled.

MEXICAN REBELS
ATTACK MONTEREY
Federal Reinforcements Were Unable Il
Advance Because of Destruction
of Bridges.

Mexico City, Oct. pa rebel attack
on the city of Monterey began Wednes-
day night and was raging in the out
skirts at 10 o'clock yesterday morning,
when telegraphic communication was in
terrupted. At that hour the rebel forces
had occupied the railroad yard mile
from the city and with several cannon
and machine guns were bombarding the
federal Notifications.
The attack upon the city was made
from all sides and the fighting was Sc
we're. Federal reinforcements under Cen
Rubio Navarrete at Rampazos, 100 miles
north, were unable to proceed to Mon
terey, owing to the destruction of the
bridges.

WILL WAS SUSTAINED.
Disposition of Property Not Made Under
Undue Influence.

Burlington, Oct 24.-Tbe jury in the
case OF the contested viii of the late
Thomas Gushing, the contest of which
has been occupying Chttenden county
court most of week, brought in YER
dict late yesterday afternoon upholding
the will. ~-
Judge Stanton instructed the jurors
that the question OF the execution of the
will had not been raised and so need not
be considered. He told them that this
left two questions for them 70 pass
upon, whether or not Thomas Gushing
at the time of making the will was of
sound and disposing mind and memory.
and whether or not the will was in any
wav the result of undue influence
brought TO bear upon the old man by
the Sheas.
He said that in establishing Thomas
Cushings mental capacity the burden
of proving the facts was on the pro-
ponents. the parties seeking TO have the
win allowed He instructed that if
there was use of undue influence, the
contestants had the burden of proving
it, He said that it must appear that
undue influence was exerted upon the
act of making the win, if it was to have
any effect upon the case. Opportunity
alone, he said, was not proof of undue
influence.
Judge Stanton also impressed upon
the jury that if Mr.. Cushing had so de-
sired he need not have mentioned any of
his relatives in the will.

PRES. WILSON SILENT
REGARDING MEXICO
Likewise Other High Officials in Wash
ington Refused to Talk Except
Brief Statement by Sec Bryan.

Washington, ID. c., Oct. 24.-An at
mosphere of gravity and sombre silence
enveloped the Mexican situation here
last night not only with regard to the
dissatisfaction of the United States at
Great Britian's attitude but as to the
critical state of affairs in Mexico City
as the election of October 26 draws near.
There are no tangible developments,
but an incident of the day which official
Washington interpreted omniously was
President Wilson's fiat refusal to dis
cuss Mexico, or any phases of the prob
lem when he met the Washington cores
pondents in their usual semi-weekly con-
ference. The president always had dis
cussed informally and unofiicially mat
ters of international consequence, giving
the general statue of affairs. Yesterday
he asked to be excused.
Secretary Bryan showed equal reti-
eenee. The conclusion drawn generally
was that crisis was slowly approach
ing; that the arrival of Gen. Felix Diaz
appeared to complicate internal affairs
in Mexico, and that stern measures by
the Washington government would not
De suI piiSinE.
For the first time during the talk of
recess and adjournment of Congress, the
Mexican situation was injected as
reason for keeping the national legisla
ture in session and in administration
circles il was admitted that it was not
the currency problem alone which made
it advisable for members to stay in
The attitude of some of the admins
tration officials, hitherto strong advo-
Gates policy of moral suasion. was
decidedly pessimistic yesterday, and
they reluctantly admitted that the
United States government might take
drastic steps.
Persons close to the administration
say the policy of Great Britain has
created an embarrassing situation here,
with an ever-increasing tension 1t is
not unlikely that Ambassador Page and
tie British foreign office will discuss
Mexico until after the elections of Oc-
tober 20, as Sir Edward Grey was re-
ported as intimating that he would not
bind the British government to any
policy until after these elections,
