HUERTA READY TO
USE MAILED FIST
Provisional President Will Be
gin Vigorous Military Cam
paign Against Rebels.

Mexico City. March 4.-The firm and
energetic military rule promised by the
new Mexican government. under Pro-
visional President Huerta, probably
will be inaugurated this week. Hnerta
has had eight days of conference with
the various rebel chiefs or with coni-
missioners sent by them. The govern
ment is now disposed to consider as
ir~reconcillable all those rebels who con
tinue to delay definite recognition of
the new order of things.
The program of qualification, will, it
is said, be put to some severe tests.
A band of adherents of Zapata fired on
a federal troop train running from the
capital to Cuernavaca yesterday, and
go soldiers We're killed or wounded.
Similar bands of Zapatistas continue
committing raids in the federal dis
trict itself and in the state of More
los, indicating that some mountaineer
rebels to the south of the capital are
determined to keep up their irregular
warfare despite the negotiations be-
tween the government and the brother
of Zapata
Huerta Is Confident.
While the federal government ex-
pressed itself as sanguine of success
in the northern states, a lack of har-
mony between the various bands Of
rebels in that region was developed
on he arrival here of reports Of Orozco
and other chiefs.
Today and tomorrow are to be de-
voted to conferences between these
rebel representatives and ministers OF
war and interior. The railroads be-
tween the capital and the north are
still interrupted. There has been prac-
tically no mail from the United States
for Is days, except that brought by
steame to Vera Cruz.

cording to Luther Conant, jr., commits

the operations of the giant corporation.
submitted to President Taft Sunday.
The chief features of the Interna-
tional Harvester company's opera
tons" says Mr.. Conant. ARE the sub
stantial maintenance of its monopolis-
tic position in the harvesting machine
business. originally acquired through
combination. and its extensions on a
large scale into new lines OF the farm
machinery industry. The company has
been able to do this in part through the
acquisition of some of its chief rivals
In the harvesting machine business:
In part by using it's monopolistic adj
vantages in these harvesting machine
lines to force the sale of its new lines:
In part by certain Objectionable COM
petitive methods and especially through
Its exceptional command of capital, it
self the result of combination"
The harvester investigation was
made in response to a Senate reso1u-
ton passed several years ago. Recent
ly a request was made by representa-
tives Of the company thai the report
be withheld pending the outcome of the
antitrust suit. but President Taft de-
cided to make 1t public.
DENIAL BY MCCORMICK.
Chicago, March 4.-Cyrus III. McCor-
mick, president of the international
Harvester company, when advised of
the nature of the report Of the COM
missioner of corporations on the oper-
ating methods of the international
Harvester company, issued the follow
ing statement:
For the bureau of corporations to
make it's report at this time is mani
testify unfeir. 1t appear in the midst
of the government lawsuits and within
two days of the beginning of the evil
dence of the company. The bureau has
considered the governments evidence.
1t refuses to wait for the company's
evidence, which will disproye every
charge of misconduct which the bureau
makes
THE report rehearses old charges,
which it finds are mainly untrue, but
which it lacks the courage and eandor
u~nequivocally to deny"

cosSoN SAYS WEBB LAW
WILL PROVE or REL

VIZ -
Des Moines. Ia, March ATTORNEY
General Cosson. who is a warm sum
porter of the Webb bill passed by con-
gress over the presidents veto today
admits that the bin is not all that could
be wished for. He says. however. that
1t will be possible to stop some sales
of liquor which could not be reached
under state law.
The main point we gain in this
bill is that it permits us to seize liquor
which Is EN- route" he said. For in
stance. we have n case now on hand
where liquor which was consigned to a
lodge at Oslaloosa was seized at the
station on the ground that ii was be-
ing shipped to be used for Illegal pur-
poses. The law is not now clear as, to
whether we had a right In seize this
liquor. Under the Webb bin the liquor
would be. classed as an illegal ship
ment could be stopped at any point
after it was consigned. provided the
shipment was consigned to dry ter
ritory.'
The Webb bill will catch all clubs,
societies. lodges or parties to whom liq-
uor is shipped. provided these lodges
or clubs are in dry" territory. The
dispensing of liquors by such lodges
or clubs is contrary to law. hence the
liquor III illegally shipped and can be
seized under the Webb bill.
The bill does not prevent the ship
ment of liquor from any point outside
of Iowa to ny point in Iowa to a pri-
vate individual for his own home con
sumption. II will prevent such ship
ment to any person who expects to sell
the liquor.
