The teacher comes into contact with
the life of the student and. as our great
est JOY is derived from the conscious
ness of having benefited others, the
teacher rightly counts as part Of his
compensation the continuing pleasure to
be found in the knowledge that he Is
projecting his influence through future
generations. The heart plays as large
a part as the head in the teachers
work, because the heart Is an important
factor In every life and in the shaping
of the destiny of the race. / fear the

DRAMATIC SPEECH CAUSED
ANTI.HUERTA ARRESTS
Fateful Address Also Believed
to Have Brought Death
to Senator.

The San Antonio CTexas) Light" pub
fishes the first translation Of the address
which Senator Beisario Dominguez deliv-
cred in the Mexican Senate on September
30. This address resulted In the mystic
rious disappearance of Senator Dominguez
and in the Imprisonment of the anti
Huerta members of the Mexican Chamber
OF Deputies and the assumption by Huer-
Ia Of the functions OF the legislative as
well as the executive division OF the Mex
lean government.
A day or two after delivering this ad-
dress Senator Dominguez was accosted by
r policeman at his hotel. and that was
the last seen OF him. He simply disap-
peared, as he knew he would, for he
designates his address TO the Mexican
Senate as my last speech on earth" His
own note at the end OF his address ex-
plains why his speech has never been
published in full before. The few copies
extant have been carefully preserved and
the one "The Light" obtained is the only
one sent to the United States up to this

steamer MORO Castle, which had been
held by the Vera Cruz port authorities
| because of charges against her captain.
| had been released The department
had a report on the subject from Mr..
Lind, the Presidents representative in
Mexico, and Mr.. Bryan prepared mes
sage containing instructions for Mr..
Lind to follow if the vessel was not re-
leased.
The government viewed the holding
of the steamer MORO Castle and the
arrest Of her captain with great con-
Germ and was prepared to take the
most drastic action II the authorities
at Vera Cruz had not permitted the
vessel to proceed officials considered
that the authorities were deliberately
trying TO see how far they could go"
with the United States, and the gov
eminent here was prepared to show
them that they could not go very far.
The release Of the steamer headed on
what might have been a dangerous In
cident. 1t is believed that the admin
istration would have told the MORO
Castle to sail despite the orders OF the
authorities and would have protected
her departure with American warships.
Huerta's Statement Admired.
Huerta's long statement outlining his
policies and discussing the foreign re-
lations OF his country is regarded here
as most able document and the clear
est exposition Of his views yet issued.
His frank discussion Of the disaster Of
American intervention excites keen in
, terest.
Some Of Huerta's views illustrate
most aptly, in the opinion Of officials,
the damage done by the apparent dis
cord between the United States and
England This Is considered true Of
the passage which says that If the
United States failed to recognize the
constituted government of Mexico there
would be a crisis which might bring
the Washington government face 10
face with London, Paris and Berlin,
and which might lead to the setting
aside Of the Monroe Doctrine or the
appalling injustice of American inter
vention. He then goes on to tell Of the
evil Of American intervention, includ-
ing the loss of 10000 American lives.
1t is not believed here at all probable
that this government will pay any OFF,
cial attention to Huerta's statement.
Nine battieships OF the Atlantic feet
will sail tomorrow from Hampton
Roads for their Mediterranean cruise.
| according to original plans. They will
be in constant communication with the
powerful wireless station here at least
! until next Thursday. 1t was stated
| officially, however, that they would sail
without any orders. except to proceed
to their Mediterranean destinations.

Diaz refuses to come TO the capital be-
cause he is not sure Of Huerta's guaran-

eminent to his friends and supporters.
On the other hand. Huerta is now SAID

Whether Diaz comes to this capital or

Mexico City, Oct. 2i.-According 10 gov
eminent advices, the fighting to-day In
Monterey lasted from a. m. to . p. IN.
Encounters were at close quarters on the
outskirts and partly within the city.
General Eduardo Ocaranza and Ricardo
Pena arrived from Saltillo at noon with
800 men and artillery, and later General
Luis G.. Anaya from Hipolito with 1000
men and, artillery. The rebels then be-
gan to waver and at p. m. their rout
was complete
Generals Anaya and Pena pursued the
fleeing rebels with cavalry. The gov

terey has fallen into rebel hands. the
revolutionsts control In Torreon and
Monterey the two most important COM
mercial and strategic points OF Northern
Mexico. A Spanish capitalist having
large interests at Monterey admits that
the rebels have possessed themselves OF
the northern part of the city and that
the Federals are hampered by not being
able to turn their artillery upon them
without also destroying much valuable
| foreign property.
In the northern part OF Monterey are
situated important industrial establish
ments, including the smelter OF the Amer
lean Smelling and Refining Company, the
Monterey Steel and Iron Works, brew
cries and nail factory. These are not all
American concerns, but foreign capital is
Interested in all OF them.
National Railways officials say all tee-
graph lines leading out OF Monterey are
down. On the other hand. they think
that General Veasco may have got REIN
forcements into Monterey. They say the
railroad line from Saltillo to Monterey via
Paredon is in operation to within thirty
kilometres og Monterey, and that from
this point Velasco may have left the
train with his soldiers and by forced
marches reached the beleaguered city and
attacked the rebels in the rear.

Mexico City. Oct. A.-In a statement TO
the press to-day IL is said TO have come
TO the knowledge of President Huerta
that in some of the Mexican states his
friends purpose 20 support him for the
Presidency. This calls forth the follow
ing official statement:
The government cannot prevent the
provisional Presidents friends supporting
him. owing TO the lack Of time to. do so
before the elections are held. but while
the provisional President appreciates the
attitude OF his friends, he declares once

Two Interviews Held.

The first interview was in the early
| part of the week of October II. The
second was on Monday, when Sir Ed
ward Grey was informed of the pur-
pose Of America to protest against the
dictatorship OF Huerta.
The unfortunate part Of the affair is
| that the Foreign Office, under the in
| fuence of Lord Cowdray, sent no in
structions to Minister Garden, though
knowing the position OF America, but
allowed affairs to drift. 1t permitted
Sir Lionel rden to present his cre-
dentias Immediately following the
American protest, which was recog-
nized, as affairs developed, as tanta:
mount to a serious affront to America,
equivalent to saying t. Huerta, Never
mind the American protest. England
is behind you and will back you up
whatever you do"
Under these circumstances England
would welcome with open arms any
situation that would demand American
intervention and release England from
the ugly position in which she is now
placed. especially as the Foreign Of
flee is not really in favor OF Huerta.
on the contrary, II agrees with Presi-
dent Wilson and values far more high
" American friendship, but has been
driven into a corner by the powerful
pressure OF Lord Cowdray.
1t is felt here that the governments
action in permitting Minister Garden
to present his credentials when the
views OF Washington were so thor
oughly VII known. fully accounts for
the feeling in Washington and is i'm
possible 10 explain or excuse, but
Washington has shown every evidence
Of understanding the situation and CT
its desire 10 maintain friendly rela-
tions.
Contrary to reports here. Ambassa-
dor Page has received no instructions
for another visit TO Sir Edward Grey,
and has not seen Sir Edward since
Monday. There is no truth in the re-
ports of daily conferences, but it seems
to be the purpose of Washington to let
the affair pass unnoticed, with the
hope that II will be quickly forgotten,
and that there will be no break in the
friendship of England and America.

Foreign Office Would Welcome
Opportunity to Leave Mexican
Affairs to America.
RELIEVED At THE OUTLOOK
General Feeling That U. s. An
noyance at British Attitude
Is Justified--American
Friendship Desired.
IBy Cable TO The Tribune. ]

London, Oct. 25.-The latest develop
ments in the Mexican situation have
afforded great relief to the Foreign
Office, which had been devoutly hoping
that Huerta's warning and the hold
ing up of an American ship by Mex
lean guhboat would force American
intervention. Such an outcome would
have let England slip easily out of a
very unpleasant and ticklish position
as il would have left Mexican affairs
entirely in American hands without
question of the position of foreign pow
ers.
II is said to-day on high authority
that England never wanted TO recog-
nze Huerta in opposition to America,
but her hand was forced by the in
fluence Of Lord Cowdray, and now the
Foreign Office feels that it would be
impossible to recede without placing
England in a humilating position, i'm
possible TO accept only as last re-
sort. The mistake having been made,
the consequences must be accepted. but
the Foreign Office welcomes the posi-
bllity Of escape.
II was learned to-day that Ambas-
sador Page has had only two CONVEX
sations with Sir Edward Grey in the
last fortnight, both times by instruc-
tions from Washington 10 present the
views and intentions of President Will
son relative to Mexico. Both times
Mr. Page received long cable messages
from Washington giving in detail Pres
ident Wilson's views and the policy
America intended to adopt, with in
structions to. convey them to Sir Ed
ward Grey. In no sense were these
representations, but only information
given in the most friendly spirit and to
keep England fully informed Of Amer
lean intentions.

Huerta, however, has defined his
position to the world. In addition to
reading his promise to all the diplo-
mats he spoke personally to the Ameri-
can Charge d'Araires, asking him to as
sure Washington of his good faith.
Mr.. Bryan made this statement con-
| corning Huerta's programme:
The embassy informs us that at q
meeting at u o'clock yesterday Gen
! eral Huerta said to members Of the
| diplomatic corps and in the presence Of
his Cabinet that as he had reason to
| fear some OF his friends would propose
him as candidate for the Presidency
Of Mexico and vote for him at the COM
! ing election, he wished to make it
| known that such vote would be null
| jority of the votes cast his election
| would be null and void, and under no
circumstances would he accept a man.
| date from the people at this time
General Huerta tried to impress on
the diplomatic corps that he would not
| consider acceptance OF the Presidency,
not only because the constitution pro-
hlbited, but also because he had given
public promise to the contrary. He
earnestly desired that the information
be conveyed TO foreign governments at
Washington. After this he asked the
American Charge dAffaires to assure
this government of his good faith
Mr.. Bryan also said he had not heard
that the American consulate in Vera
Cruz had offered asylum 20 General
/ Felix Diaz. If the consul should take
such action, however. he would have
the support OF Washington.
