This fact is learned ON high au-

indicating that Gen. Huerta intends

place no obstacle in the path of
Gen. Diaz in his candidacy for the
presidency.
Ii is considered possible that Gen.
Huerta will throw his influence to
Diaz, which would practically insure
his election.

ceased to labor i'm his behalf, and
assert they have organized upward

and adjourned without acting. The
leaders of that party have called an
other convention for next Sunday.
II is no secret that they favor Huer-
Ia, and in the previous convention
they decided to support the Presi-
dent should he again become a can
didate. Gen. Huerta. however, has
given no indication of such inten-
tion.

Only Woman Railroad President
Is Reelected at Meeting Of
Her Stockholders.

Mrs. Jesse P. Williams, the only liv-
ing woman railroad president in the
United States, if not he entire world,
Saturday resumed her duties as pres
ident of the Georgia, Florida and Ala :
bama Railroad following her re-elec-
ton to that office at a meeting of the
stockholders at Bainbrihge Thursday.
Mrs. Williams resides at No. AIS
Peachtree street, where she lives and
maintains her private office. 1t was
here that she first gained experience
in such weighty matters when her
husband was the chief executive cf
the road before his death last Au-
gust Ffnanciers throughout the
country were shocked when they
learned then that the widow of the
president had been elected to his p0-
sition
Captain Williams left no will, and
Mrs. Williams came into complete
possession of property valued at more
than $10,000,000. OF this an amount
in excess of 100000 was in the form
of bonds in the Georgia, Florida and
Alabama, together with 80 per cent
of the stock in the road, which gives
her complete control of it. The road
maintains 200 miles of interstate
trackage and is operated entirely at
the discretion of its president.
All the other officers of the railroad
who served under Captain Williams
up to the time of his death were also
reelected.
