REGARD VERSIONS
GIVEN DOUBTFULLY
Not unnaturally great part of the
public regards the official versions
with doubt, having in mind the use
fo1 centuries of the notorious "ley
fuga," the unwritten law which is in
voked when the death of prison er
is desired. After its application there
is written on the records, Prisoner
shot trying to escape"
Sonora Madero, widow of the ex-
president, received the first definite
information of his dath from the Span
ish ministers, Senior Cologan Y Colog-
an. She already had heard reports that
something unusual and serious had
happened, but friends had endeavored
up to that time to prevent her from
learning the whole truth.
Soon afterward, accompanied by hei
brothe-, Jose Perez. and Mercedes Ma
dero. sister of Francisco. Sonora Ma
dero drove to the penitentary, but was
refused permission to see the body of her
husband. Sonora Suarez also was denied
admittance to the mortuary, where ply
sicians, in accordance with the law, were
performing autopsy.

EFFORT MADE TO
RECOVER BODIES

Madero's father and Rafael Hernandez,
former minister of the interior, and other
friends made efforts early in the day TO
recover the bodies, and 1t was said this
afternoon that the American ambassador,
Henry Lane Wilson, had interested him
self and secured the promise of Minister
De La Barra that the bodies should be
delivered to their families for burial
The tragedy occurred shortly after mid
night. Madero and Suarez, who had been
prisoners In the National palace since
their arrest on Tuesday last, were placed
IN an automobile, which was accompanied
by another car and escorted by 100 rurales
under the orders of Commandant Fran
cisco Cardenas and Col. Rafael Pimiento.
With instructions not to outdistance the
escort, the cars moved slowly. No incl
dent occurred until they had reached a
point near the penitentiary, when in
place the guards attention was attracted,
according to the official version, to a
group of persons following. Shots were
fred at the escort from the darkness. The
rui ales closed in and ordered the pris-
oners out of the car.
Thirty Of the guards surrounded the
prisoners, while the remainder dispersed
themselves to resist an attack About so
men, some afoot and some mounted, threw
themselves upon the detachment guarding
the cars and the exchange of shots lasted
20 minutes, when the attacking party fled.

HIS PAINFUL FoRGETFULNEss

A gentleman and official who is so
unfortunate as to forget an important
public duty is sure TO be commiserated
with by the general public; but if that
forgetfulness turns out to his political
and official advantage, there will be
those cruel enough TO doubt the good
faith of that forgetfulness and to say
that he done it apurpose. -
The case in mind is that Of President
Gomez of Venezuela Now that the
alleged Castro rebellion is over, Presi-
dent Gomez recollects that there is
something important that he ought to
have done, but that he did not do His
edIy be accentnated by the fact that he
is the beneficiary of his own forgetfnl-
ness. \ Congress was to have been elect
ed according to law in Venezuela in the
week Of September l4th. He should
have issued his proclamation for that
election. but he forgot TO do it, and
so a Congress was not elected. But
that Congress should have been elected.
and next spring it would have had the
duty of electing a President, perhaps
one who would have superseded Pres-
dent Gomez
But through his forgetfulness the
Congress was not elected. Therefore.
there VIII be no election Of President
in Venezuela next spring, and Gomez
will be obliged to continue ms Prcsi
dent until his memory gets better, and
he is able some time or other TO re-
member that new Congress is 10 be
elected upon his proclamation for such
| elect on.
The dismay, astonishment. and dis.
trcss of President Gomez at realizing
| this forgetfulness must be very keen
| indeed. But, Of course. he can plead
the cxactne and perilous duty that he
performed in supprcssiDg the insurrec-
tion OF Castro. IT will he remembered
that President Gomez took the field
himself for that purpose, There have
been vague accounts Of fjghtinu which
really did not seem TO amount to much.
and of the capture Of some military
commanders in rebellion. said to be in
the interest Of Castro; but Castro him
self has not been caught, and, so far
as is known, has not actually been in
Venezuela Mt all.
Under these circumstances. there arc
Venczuelans who have been suspicious
enough TO suggest that there was not

had rsadc no move, and that the al
legged instruction was merely a pay

is a Roosevelt paper, says. 1.-The pro.
cecdings were farcical. The average
member Of Il party had no chance to
express himself. The old conditions
prevailed Things had not been made
more difficult for the bosses On the
contrary, il appears that everything had
been made so much easier for the
bosses that the primary law might well
have been styled Il measure for the en-
dorscmcnt Of boss nominations. The
machine committees had designated -
candidates, and the candidates thus
designated were approved at the pri-
marics, without the slightest variation.
Thus, tho authority Of the 'organza
ton was immcasursbly strengthened.
What was 10 be the result Of the
primaries was just as we'll known before
the primaries were held as it was
afterwards.
Naturally, in this state Of affairs
there was small vote. The Associated
Press, giving report Of the result OF
the primaries, summed il up before fig
ures were returned by saying that the
! organization s candidates on all tickets
had been nominated 50 showing that
the man who wrote the dispatch for the
Associated Press had sly humor of his
own. that enabled him to bring out tho
farce Of the situation by putting tho
word Nominated in quotation marks
There was not the slightest effort tc
smash any strength of boss leadership
Not the slightest Indication appeared
| that any voter wished 10 take advan
tage Of the opportunity to escape from
boss rule. On the contrary, such voter!
as rallied to the polls gladly and readily
voted the machine tickets, aud so, ever
before any figures were announced, the
Associated Press was able TO say The
| organization s candidates that had beer
nominated - beforehand wore Ell
dorscd
But if there is no crystallization oil
public sentiment upon candidates, how
is any satisfactory nomination to bt
made? In this we do not refer to thu
proposition OF naming partisan candl
dates for the municipal election, which
| is generally obsolete But if there il
