MEXICO CITY. oct. 27.-The presl-

been farce. From the meagre re-

Mexico City, it is judged here that not

the election valid. It is the general

were the troops.
It is conceded that General Felix

reasons for the apathy Of the voters.
In the first place il is agreed that the

military man of strength and prestige
None of the candidates satisfies this

Mexican people are not sufficiently

Sympathy, and Not Material
Advantage, Should Be Mo-
tive, He Says.

MOBILE. Ala. Oct. 27.-President
Wilson announced to the world today
that the governing motive of the
United States. in its relationships
with the countries of this hemis-
phere. would be morality and not
expediency."
az want to take this occasion to
say" he declared, that the United
States will not again seek to secure
one additional foot of territory by
conquest"
Phe President in speech before
the Southern Commercial Congress
delivered a yelled attack on what he
termed the material interests that
had Influenced the foreign policy OF
some governments in their relations
with the nations of Latin America.
ConcessionHires in Mexico.
Though Mr.. Wilson did not men
ton Mexico as the afflicted country,
he devoted his entire speech to a de-
scription of the degrading influences
which foreign concessionaires had had
upon the internal affairs of some OF
the Latin American countries.
With the Mexican situation upper
most in the Presidents mind at this
time his address was interpreted as
an arraignment of those financial in
fiuences which it has been charged
have secured in some cases recogni-
ton for the Huerta government.
Considers II Duty of U. s. to Aid.
The President declared that 1t
would be the duty of the United
States to assist the nations Of this
hemisphere In an emancipation"
from "the material interests of other
nations so that they might enjoy
constitutional liberty unrestrained.
The President spoke extempo-
raneously.

for the South, because the South has
the gift of speaking for herself. |
came here because / would speak OF
our present and prospective relations
with our neighbors to the South.
The future Is going to be very
different for this hemisphere from the
past. Those States lying to the South
which have always been our neigh
bors will be drawn close to each other
by common ties of understanding.
Interest does not tie nations to-
gether; it sometimes separates them.
But sympathy and understanding do
bind them together.

THREE INDICTED ON
MURDER CHARGES
September Grand Jury Dis
charged by Gummere After
Six Weeks of Service.

The first September grand jury
likewise the first grand jury to be
drawn under the new jury law, was
discharged from office today by Chiet
Justice William S. Gummere, the
twenty-three men having finished
their six weeks term of duty The
jury had no presentment to rake and
turned in fifty-one indictments.
In the indictments turned in were
three charging homicide. One was
against Angelo Ceceriello. who on
May 80 last is allaged to have muir
dered his bride of four months. Mrs.
Alvira Ceceriello, by hacking her head
almost to pieces with hatchet The
body was found in a vacant lot on
Chester avenue. Bloomfield, near
where the Ceceriellos lived Ceceriello
and his brother NincenZo We're ar
rested and charged with the crime.
A few days later a blood stained
hatchet was found near the scene of
the crime. On the hatchet was the
print of a bloody finger and on in
vestigation this was found to cores
pond with the print of the first fin
ger on the right hand of Angelo Ce-
cerciello, the husband. The brother
was then released on bail of $1,000 as
a material witness while the husband
was held on a charge of murder,
Charles Mack, a negro, who killed
his wife by crushing her skull with
an axe as she lay asleep in their
furnished room on Mulberry street on
July 18, also was indicted, as was Os-
car Bauer, charged with the death
of James J. Halligan. On April %
last, Bauer approached number OF
young men at Central and Norris av-
enues and asked one of their num-
ber for a match. Some words follow
ed and it is alleged that Bauer drew
a revolver and fired shot which
took effect in Halligans back. He
was taken to the City Hospital and
after apparently being well on the
road to recovery took a turn for the
worse and died on July 10. Bauer had
been held in jail on charge of
shooting, but when dalllgan died the
charge was changed to murder
The grand jury. it is known. consid-
cred the case of Nicholas Callan. Who
on Nav % last shot Charles Hinderer
during a row in front of a saloon at
Centre street and Division place. Hin
derer. with a party of friends, drove
to the saloon in the early hours OF
the morning in an automobile. The
party had several drinks and a row
arose between Callan. the bartender,
and the party over payment for the
drinks.
When the party left Callan is al
legged to have followed them to the
sidewalk and fired a shot after the
automobile as it sped away. The
shot took effect in Hinderer's back
and he died a couple of days later at
the City Hospital. 1t is understood
that the grand jury did not consider
the evidence against Callan eonclu-
siye enough to warrant either an in
dictment for murder or manslaugh-
ter

MALICIOUS GOSSIP
LEADS TO SUICIDE
Lawrence Young Ends Life Fol-
lowing Family Trouble Due
to Neighbors.

Malicious gossip of neighbors. 1t is
said. was the indirect cause for the
suicide of Lawrence Young, thirty
eight years old, clerk, in his home,
63 Somerset street. today.
He made previous attempts to take
his fife. One was thwarted by his
wife last night, and another by his
thirteen-year- son Joseph this
morning.
Mrs. Young heard a few months
ago that the neighbors were gossip
ing about her husbands fondness for
another woman. She taxed him with
the charges and he denied them. Sew
eral quarrels followed.
After q particularly bitter inter-
change of recriminations last night
Young said he intended to end it all
by killing himself. He took q box of
rat poison and put it in glass. Mrs.
Y Toung. took it away from him and
besought him to have some considera-
ton for his six children.
He was morose when he arose this
morning Joseph found him mixing
UP a new box full of rat poison in the
kitchen. The, boy called his mother.
who again frustrated her husbands s
act.
Young went out shortly afterward
and bought pure arsenic at a drug
store. When he returned he went to
bed, where he was found unconscious
by his wife at noon. She summoned
DIR. Louis Davidson, of 116 Spruce
street, and he notified the City Hos
pital. Young was dead before the
ambulance arrived.

neys representing the State of New
York, went to Rochester today to at
tend hearing before Governor Fellzer
at his home in that city on the ques-
ton of further continuance in the
Thaw extradition proceedings.
Thaw seeks delay of two weeks in
which to meet the Indictment returned
in New York county last week. The
New York lawyers are opposed to the
continuance.
The hearing was held at the Gov

the executive prevented his coming to
the State capital here.
Before leaving for Rochester. Thaw
issued a statement saying that he had
directed his New York lawyers to
Withdraw their application for him to
be admitted to bail in New York city.
He had taken this action, he said be-
cause the New York county indict-
ment against him is null and void, be-
cause Of his being legally insane In

about ready to take the standpatters

years chief lieutenant of Cannon, OBJ
tanned the passage Of an order to prinr

MANY HOGS DYING
IN HENRY COUNTY
King Brothers of South Moline
Say Disease Is Not Cholera,
However.

King brothers, farmers of South
Moline who claim TO have discovered
an effective cure for hog cholera,
have been appealed to by farmers
southwest of Geneseo who are losing
their swine by hundreds, and have
come to the conclusion that the dis
ease that is proving so fatal in Henry
county Is not cholera. but an affection
OF the lungs and that there Is no
known cure for it, Others who have
watched the symptoms Of the az
ficted animals say it is cholera, death
frequently following within "a hours
after the onset Of the disease.
This has been one of the worst sea-
sons ever known in many parts Of the
country for swine plague. Use of the
serum treatment is often impossible
because of inability to get serum.
