TROUBLE GETTING
MADERO'S INSURANCE

Mexico City, Feb. 26-Cvia Galveston)
The Huerta government may have to
render to the United States govern
ment an account and an explanation
of the killing of Francisco L. Madero,
should an Insurance company success
fully carry out it's plan.
The deposed president of Mexico,
who was shot down near the peni-
tentiary in an alleged fight between
federals and Maderists, carried heavy
life insurance and the surviving Ma
deros have demanded payment on the
policy of which Senorita Madero is
beneficiary. 1t was learned, today, that
the insurance company, an institu-
ton of the United States, would ask
the state department to demand an
explanation from Mexico and that pos
sibly an effort would be made by the
company to collect an indemnity.
There was no confirmation of the
rumor current here, last night, that
Emilio, brother of Francisco Madero,
had been shot near Monterey. A
story and said Emilio Madero was un-
harmed. Emilio and RaouI Madero,
brothers of the slain president, live at
San Pedro and they have, unsuceess-
fully tried to foment a revolution.
When ETnesto Madero, Francisco I.
Madero, Sr., Sonora Madero, the
Senorita Madero, and the widow of
Pine Suarez, left Vera Cruz for Ha-
vana aboard the Cuban warship Cuba,
it was learned, today, they were ac-
companied by Cuban Minister De
Riva, who, it was reported would ask
his government to recall him.
The Cuban minister was outspoken
in his condemnation of the killing of
Madero and Suarez and left the Cuban
legation in charge of the secretary
saying he hoped never to return.
Marco Mendez, formerly director of
te1egraphs, today, was said to be try
ing but with little success, to or
ganize a strike Of operators through
out Mexico.
Provisional President Huerta will
try to persuade Rudo1pho Reyes and
Minister Granados In retain their po-
sitions in his cabinet until affairs are
more settled. Reyes is said to be con-
temp1ating resignation from the port
folio of justice to further his own
campaign, for the presidency while
Minister Granados of the interior,
wants to get out because he is not at
all in accord with the Diaz-Huerta
policies

HUERTA THE RIGHT MAN
AS MEXICAN PRESIDENT,
SAYS ARMS EXPERT HERE
REBEL ZAPATA TO
SIGN PEACE PACT

Mexico City, Feb. 26.-Whether the
Huerta government will have the task
of subduing the rebels under General
Emiliano Zapata. or that leader will
peacefully accept the new admins
tration will likely be settled, today.
Napata is enroute here, today, to sign
a peace agreement, according to re-
ports given out by the government.
Should Zapata agree to support
Huerta. it is conceded that great
step will have been taken toward paci-
fication as he has been the most per
sistent and destructive fighter during
the last two years. 1t is believed that,
as a. federal officer, Zapata would be
able to disperse other rebels in the
south.
Once Zapata is in, Mexico City, it is
considered certain here that his reign
as a. rebel leader, will be ended. He
has been most insistent as to the re-
distribution of lands promised by the
late Madero and is expected to make
like demands on the new government
Should he refuse to accept Huerta's
terms, however, he would probably be
abruptly arrested and very likely shot.
Although a report as to the f1nan-
cial standing of Mexico, today, show
ed less than 100000 pesos left in the
treasury by Madero, the new govern
ment will not suffer from a lack of
funds. Offers of big loans, said to
been received from New York sources.
Huerta was forced to admit, today.
that the rebel activity during the last
few days has been of a serious nature,
when large bodies of troops were sent
out to repair and guard all railroads.
Mexico City is now cut off from rail
communication in all directions ex-
cept toward Vera Cruz, owing to de-
struction of the lines by rebels
Eufenio zapata, brother of the
rebel chief, reported to be on his way
here, today, declared himself COVER
nor of the state of Morelos and estah
lished his capital at Cuautla. 1t was
stated that Cosio Robelo5 commander
of the rura1es who escaped with 40
men, had induced Eufennio to declare
himself against the new government.
Troops left, today, to engage the
Zapatista and Robe1o forces but it
was stated this fou1d have no effect on
dealings between Huerta and Emilio
Zapata. e. Z.

NIGHT ENGINEER OF
lOCOMOBILE co. is
HELD FOR Theft
Charged With Purloining
Tools From Plant Valued
at Upwards of $1OO

Dragged from his bed of a High
street oIdging house, Edward Depew.
formerly employed as night engineer
at the works of the Locomobi1e Com
pany is today in a cell at police head
quarters charged with the theft of
tools from his employers, valued at
over 800. 1t is believed that a con-
fession of thefts covering a period of
six months has been made to detec-
tives engaged upon the case, and a box
of valuable instruments were today
taken from his apartment where they
were hidden in various places about
the room. A quantity of pawn tickets
in his possession is being investigated
at the various pawn shops with the
who when Informed that small tools be-
instruments for which they were is
sued.
Depew who has lived in Bridgeport
for six years past is well known and
heretofore has always borne a good
reputation. The arrest came as a
great surprise to the people with
whom he lived
tive work of Sergeant George Fox,
who when informed that small tools be-
longing to various workmen had been
missing established a close connection
with his man at the plant and OBJ
serving his actions and frequent trips
to pawn shops finally secured evidence
which it is said the prisoner could
not deny.
Among those most glad to recover
their property will be the owner of a
motor boat whistle, who had constant
ly complained of its loss to the very
man who had it in his room.

MANY REPUBLICANS

in Connection With Bill
Seeking Investigation
(By Our stan Corres.J

Hartford, Feb. 26.-Representatfvs
Lynn w Wilson Of Bridgeport called
House Bill No. 35, providing for an
investigation of the New Haven road
in the House today, for the purpose
of laying in u bill of particulars es-
tablishing a prir1a facie case for in
vestigat ton.
the table was taken, standing. and the
Republicans mostly voted against rfs
procedure and the Democrats III gen
eraI supporting it.
The vote to take from the table was
lost by 1O7 to so.
Mr.. Wilson then took the floor IN
question of personal privilege and
said that the House had been guilty
of unconscious bad faith IN dealing
with the member from Bridgeport.
that the resolution had been offered
on Feb. when there was not a
quorum in the House and that IL was
within the power of the member from
Bridgeport then to adjourn the House.
In consideration of these facts per
mission had been given him to lay 81
a bill of particulars explaining the
reasons why there should be an in
vestigation. But the House, BY it's
action of today, had deprived him Of
that privilege. He then made a mo-
ton that the bill of particulars be
received and that it be allowed to lie
calling for the investigation, and that
both bills be printed in the journal
In speaking to this resolution, ne
said:
my reasons for asking this fnvestl-
cation are that the managers Of the
steam road property Of the New Ha-
ven road are stripping it of its value
and robbing it by legal trick and de-
vice for the benefit Of trolley road and
steamship insiders Evidence also
shows that the New Haven company
by legal trick and device is paying TO
this state many hundreds Of thousands
of dollars less taxes than It ought in
justice to pay. I cannot conceive that
any honorable member Of this Houze
can vote against having laid before
you matters which will show whether
} there ought to be an investigation into
this subject or not
The House then received the bill %
particulars and it was ordered print
ed in the journal of the House along
with the resolution for investigation
This was the result that Representa-
tive Wilson sought.
One feature of the occasion was the
lack of Willingness on the part Of the
members to go upon record with re-
spect to the motion. This was evident
by the fact that not enough members
to call for a yea and nay vote stood
one-fifth of the members to call for
the vote,
The bill calling for the invessfga-
ton, with its accompanying bill OF
particulars now lies upon the table.
until such time as the House sees fit
to consider it.. Mr.. Wilson win likely
call it from the table shortly
Here is Mr.. Wilson's bill OF partf-

Militant Leader Faces Maxi

Penal SeEVIfude

Epsom,. Eng, Feb. 26-Acting az her
own counsel and conducting her de-
Tense unassisted, Mrs. Emmeline
Pankhurst, leader of the militant suf-
fragettes, today, was held for trial at
the Guilford Summer Assizes, charg-
ed with instigating the bomb expIo-
sion that partly wrecked the new
home being built for Chancellor of
the Exchequer David Lloyd-George at
Walton Heath.
Mrs. Pankhurst faces a maximum
punishment of ii years penal servi-
tude If convicted.
1t was assumed that the militant
leader is being prosecuted at least
with the full consent of the King, if
not at his suggestion, for her arrest
took place in her KnightSbridge flat
Immediately after a conference of
aome Secretary Kenna, with King
George.
The suffragette leader was held di-
rectly on her speech at Cardiff, Wales,
on the day after the Lloyd-George
explosion, in which she said she as
sumed full responsibility for the
bomb Her speech was read verbati
to the 10 magistrates who sat on her
case, today, in the. Surrey County
court.
Mrs. Painkhurst cross-examined the
witnesses for the Crown ana had sew
era1 sharp exchanges with Prosecutor
Bodktn and the magistrates, especi-
ally with Sir William Vincent, who
presided. At the close of the prosecu-
tions evidence, Mrs Pankhurst an
nounced that she would reserve her
defense and called no witnesses.
Mrs. Pankhurst was sent to prison
after her hearing because she refus-
ed to reiterate her pledge of good be-
havior given yesterday. The court

Prosecutor Bodkins outlined the
case. "a more abOminab1e and cruel

said, stShe instigated a general war

accessory to the crime is equally
guilty with the actual perpetrators
Bodkin then read at length and
caustically commented upon several OF
Mrs. PanEhurst's most bitter speech
es, especially calling attention to her
viru1ent attacks on Chancellor Lloyd
George.
In conclusion, Bodkin again quoted
from Mrs Pankhurst's Cardiff speech
in which she assumed the responsi-
bilfty for the Walton Heath explosion,
and demanded her commitment for
trial at the Assizes.
Detailed evidence by nefghbors and
workmen then was introduced, des-

.HIKERS CALL ON
CARDINAL GIBBONS
Salutes Them as Modern JOans
of Arc and Gives Army
His Blessing

Baltimore, Feb. 26-The reunited
ranks of the suffragist hfkers started
out yesterday to see something of
Baltimore. The first move was made
on the house of Cardinal Gibbons
Leaving a large number of small boys
at the door, the members of the army
walked into the Cardinals residence
There had been some doubt as to
whether His Enfnence would coun-
tenance such an informal visit. These
doubts were instantly brushed aside
by the welcome they received. The
Cardinal walked in, smiling and the
army with General Rosalie Jones
and Miss Freeman at its head, Gag
erly entered the audience chamber.
The Cardinal seated himself and ask
ed the hikers to take chairs. The Of
fer was declined, as "GeneraP' Jones
says she can talk better on her feet.
1--WE come.,' said the General a
little vibration of excitement in her
tone, "to pay our respects to you and
ask you that you accept this little
suffrage flag as mementO-"
The Cardinal looked at the flag and
smiled dubious smile eff I accept
it, he said at last, ''will it commit
me to the cause of woman's suf-
frage?'
mot at ALL" answered the t'Gener-
all And with this understanding he
reached out hand and the little
yellow pennant was placed in it,
e'It is wonderful he said, that
you women could have done what you
have The hearts of our men must
be harder than the stones of the road
over which your feet have travelled
if they do not give a sympathetic
hearing to your cause when you have
reached Washington"
AS the members of the army pass
ed out the Cardinal shook hands with
each one and said: God bless you.
You are modern Joans of Arc
When they were out on the sidewalk
again Miss Freeman turned to Gen
eral'' Jones. 'Rosalie,' she said, cit
was all I could do to keep from kiss
ing him.
Miss Freeman, be it understood, is
an ardent militant. Furthermore, she
is an English militant. She has
thrown her brick at Premier Asquith;
she has broken her window in the
House of Parliament; she has scratch

FIVE PICKED IN
WILSON CABINET
Bryan, M'Adoo, Brandeis,
Bur1eson and Daniels
Have Accepted
Congressman Palmer Re
fuses War Portfolio Be-
cause He's a Quaker

Washington, Feb. 26-Five members
of President-e1ec Wilson's cabinet are
definitely selected and two men to
whom places have been offered have
declined them.
Those who declined were Represent
ative A. Mitchell Palmer, who refused
to be secretary of war because he is
a quaker, and Mayor Newton D.
Baker, of Cleveland, o., who refused
because he said he wanted to stay in
Cleveland and work out progressive
reforms there.
It is believed Palmer would have
accepted the attorney generalship or
the fsecretarysfip of the treasury but
neither of these posts was offered
him. While his religious scruples are
accepted as partially responsible for
his declination of t9e war portfolio, it
is thought that he also believed his
chances for political advancen ent
would be better by staying in the
House, where he occupies an infuen-
tial position.
The five men definitely selected are:
w. ]. Bryan, secretary of state;
William G. McAdoo, secretary of the
treasury; Louis D. Brandefs. attorney
general; Albert s. BurIeson Repre-
sentative from Texas, postmaster
general; Josephus Daniels, of North
Caroline, secretary of the navy.
This Information, both as to the
declinations and the five acceptances,
came in such a way that its reliabiI-
ity cannot be questioned. The only
hesitancy pertains to Brandeis but it
is almost negligible. All sorts of
rumors of other definite, probable and
possible appointments are in circula-
ton here, today. but their reliability
is very doubtful while the source of
the information as to Bryan, McAdoo,
Burleson, Daniels, Palmer and Baker
is so direct as to leave no doubt as
to it's authenticity.

NO FARE TILL
He GETS SEAT,
SAYS JUDS0N

There was a report in circulation to-
day that States Attorney stiles Jud-
son had refused to pay his fare on a
trolley car last night because he was
unable to obtain a seat.
1t was stated that Attorney Judson
boarded a. Stratford car and found it
loaded to the guards.
When the conductor pushed his way
through the throng to collect the
nickels, Attorney Judson who was
compelled to stand, refused to pay.
The conductor then declared the pas
senger would have to get off.
He was not aware of Attorney Jud-
sons identity, however, and when told
that the passenger was the states at
torney the conductor decided to pro-
ceed cautiously.
He telephoned to the company's Of
flee for instructions and was told to
take the passengers name and ad-
dress. He did this and the car pro-
ceeded on its way. Later when the
ranks of the commuters had thinned
out somewhat, Attorney Judson was
able to get a seat He then offered
his fare to the conductor.
When seen this morning and asked
regarding the truth of the alleged
dispute, Attorney Judson said, ''The
facts in the matter are simply these.
1 refused to pay my fare because the
car was so crowded I couldn't get a
seat. Later when 1 obtained a seat
offered my fare to the conductor but
he declined to take it. That's all
there is to the story
