often short rations," one old pensioner

Bed Ridden Man.

New York, March 5.-Dr. William
Seward Webb narrowly escaped death
yesterday in fire that for time
threatened to destroy his residence
at No. $50 Fifth avenue.
DR.. Webb, who was Ill in bed, was
carried out in policeman's arms.
Traffic Policeman Emil Spies was
at Fifth avenue and Fifty-third street
at $3.50 p. m. when he heard a cry
of fire and saw automobiles and pc
destrians stopping and all heads turn
ed toward the second story windows
of DR.. Webb's four story brownstone
and red brick residence. Flames were
sweeping through those windows and
up against the walls.
Spies ran up the stoop, rang the
bell and beat on the iron barred door
with his club, meantime blowing his
whistle. When the door was thrown
open the butler and half a dozen men
and women servants hurried out fol-
lowed by clouds Of smoke. All the
servants had been on the ground
floor without suspicion of danger.
Learning that DR.. Webb was i'll in
bed on the second floor, Spies ran
through the smoke filled hall, up the
stairs and to the bedroom where DR..
Webb was asleep. His room was rap
idly filling with smoke.
The policeman picked the sick man
up in his arms and carried and sup
ported him to the street, where he
was helped into the limousine OF a
friend who had been passing, when
the flames broke through the win
dows. DIR, Webb was driven imme-
diately to the home of his brother, ].

STUDENTS THREW SNUFF
Suffragette Leader Breaks Down and
Quits Her Job.

London, March 5.-Mrs. Emmeline
gettes. has broken down completely
She has cancelled all her engage
ments and has gone to the country
for rest. This announcement was
made at suffragette meeting at
Hampstead tonight where Mrs. Pank-
hurst was scheduled to speak.
Gen" Mrs. Flora Drummond took
her place.
Mrs. Drummond no sooner began
talking than group of students let
loose quantities of snuff, starting
everybody to sneezing. A lively
scrimmage ensued between the at
tendants and the disturbers. Chairs
were broken, blows were exchanged
and black eyes and bruises were
plentiful
During lull in the disorder, Mrs
Drummond advised all the municipal
electors TO vote against the London
county council progressive candi-
dates, az a protest against the con-
duct of John Burns, president of the
local government board who has
been denouncing the suffragettes as
tyrannical and their militant efforts
as blackguardism.
John Burns, spoke at a meeting at
Islington. While the guards were
ejecting two disturbing male supper
tiers of the suffragettes, Mr.. Burns

MIR. MeIIen Defended.

Edwin -Farnham Greene, president
of the National Association of Cot
ton Manufacturers, strongly support
ed the Mellen management of the
New Haven system in an address be-
fore the New England Dry Goods as
sociation at the Hotel Brunswick
recently.
Il am one of those who believe"
said Mr.. Greene, that there has
been altogether too much criticism
and too little help given to the rail-
roads in this section. / sincerely
believe that If the Boston and Maine
railroad had not gone to the New
Haven it might have gone to some
other road that would have taken 1t
further away. The Boston and Al
bany slipped away from us in a
night. The people of New England
have missed a golden opportunity in
not meeting the situation half way.
"a strong New England railroad
which controls the situation can die
tate terms and rates in spite of the
interstate commission to the dis
tinct advantage of New England. Mr..
Mellen and his associates, / believe,
are sincere in their efforts to bene-
fit New England. The Boston and
Maine and the New Haven are New
England railroads, and their sue
cess depends just as much on the
success of New England as your
business and my business do. 1t is
serious thing for New England to
have this present state of hostility
and criticism, when most of us would
be better off if we would try to do
something constructive instead of
destructive in the railroad situation"

NORTHERN MEXICO
SEETHES WITH
REVOLUTION
Sonora Province Will Fight for
independence
STRIFE ALONG THE BORDER
American Soldiers are Patrollin9
Boundary and There are Threats
of Clash.

Douglas, N. NJ, March 5.-Trains
from the south this afternoon
brought many refugees who reported
northern Sonora in a state OF COM
motion in preparation for general
campaign to make the border state
an Independent republic.
Private kilograms received here
from Mexico City say that Huerta
has appointed Manuel Mascarenas
provisional governor of Sonora with
orders to proceed to Hermosillo and
subdue the uprising there. Mes
sages from Hermosillo say that Gen.
Obregon has been appointed COM
mander of the constitutionalists in
rebellion against Mexico City govern
ment.
The former Maderistas continued
mobilization of troops at Colonia
Morelos, below this point. Rebels
camped 10 miles to the south declare
they will make an attack tomorrow
morning on Aqua Prieta, the Next
can border town opposite Douglas.
This was brought here late today by
a courier from the rebel camp where
OUV oCho.
iege and Cordova are located. De-
sertions have depleted the Augua
Prieta garrison to 100 men and Gen.
Ojeda finds it impossible to get help
from the interior.
In all 1900 men and machine guns
of the 9Th United States cavalry, who
have had two brushes with Mexican
troops over the line, are stretched
along the border tonight. By order
of the war department guard of the
negro troopers has been placed at
the Douglas water plant. This was
requested by the local residents.
Nearly all of the Mexican population
here are sympathizers with the new
Maderistas. e.
Col. Guilfoyle has received orders
from Washington only to return the
fire of the Mexicans over the line
when necessary to protect American
lives and to keep the patrol under
cover
