Madero s Supreme
Effort Today.

The fury Of the federal attack grew.
Madero had issued an official statement
TO the effect that the battle would con
Linue until the rebels We're reduced TO
submission, and he is apparently max
ing supreme effort to bring about a
decisive end to the engagement to-

turned on the arsenal. one shell 81
fenced a cannon, but it was quickly re-
placed by another.

GOES To POLICE
To GET DIVORCE

AtIanta's reputation as a divorce
mart got a rise today when Mrs. E.
Admos I daughter Of Romany and
CARRIED to look the part, walked into
the office Of the county police and de-
manded a decree against her husband
instanter. She said that he had eyes
for younger and fairer women.
T.. Admos, the errant husband came
with his wife to the police, but seemed
Indifferent to the entire proceedings.
He merely shrugged his shoulders when
the woman accused him of many
amours.
Mrs AdmOs took it for granted that
County Police Chief Rowan would turn
to his desk, write something in book
and hand her divorce decree. She in
timated that there was some sort of
hoax afoot when she was told to con-
suit a lawyer.
Relates Family Woes.
The wife related the family woes in
broken English while Admos stood by
and nodded approval at each sentence.
He even smiled when she told about
his fondness for the society of younger
women.
The woman said that they had mar
ried in Austria Hungary, in a village
near Budapest 20 years ago, and nad
come to the United States five years
later She said they had nine chill
dren.
Admos admitted that he was satisfied
with his present married state, but put
it that if his wife insisted upon a di-
vorce that he didn't care. Like the
woman he was surprised to learn tnat
the police were not in the business Of
granting divorces.

with.
At least, that is the way a great

are talking nowadays.

Gable Open to
The White House

WASHINGTON, Feb 17.-Ambassa-
DOR Wilson today informed the state
department that fighting was continu-
ing in Mexico City, but that it was i'm
possible to obtain any details or to
learn which side was gaining without
sending men outside the confines Of the
embassy. This has been found to be
dangerous.
President Madero, replying to the
state departments demand that COM
munication between the American en-
bassy at Mexico City and the white
house be kept open today, promised
that Ambassador Wilson's messages
would be hurried northward with the
least possible delay and would not be
subject to censorship by the Mexican
government. At the same time Madero
officially informed this government that
strict censorship would be exercised
over all press dispatches and that
nothing which might initiate against
the good of Mexico or her government"
would be permitted to so out of Mexico
City.
