Musser was the only witness to the
killing of Strubel Recently he identi-
fed John Weir as the slayer, but
Weir was tried and acquitted. The
article in the Strike Bulletin followed,
in which there were thinly yelled ac-
cusatioRS which Musser resented.
When the men met yesterday after
noon there was a fist fight, bystandCrs
parted them. but no sooner had this
been done than Person whipped out
an automatic and emptied the seven
shots into the body of Musser.
Musser died 20 minutes sfter being
shot Seven steel bullets had taken
effect, two passing through the body.
Person was placed in the county
jail, but last night WAS taken out of
the city to escape mob violence. Mayor
George s IIdmOnsOn ordered all sa-
looms closed at 4 o'clock and appoint
ed extra police to patrol the town.

 The administration considers that Huerta having been declared in the Gamboa note ineligible to succeed himself as provisional president will not be a candidate i'll the approach ing elections, and the American gov ernment is prepared at any time to resume the negotiations through Mir. Lind on this basis. Mir Lind has been given the views of the admins tration in telegrams sent to him by Secretary Bryan during the last "A hours. but has no instructions to take further steps unless the Huerta of ficials are prepared specifically to

BELIEVED HE WILL SUPPORT CANDIDACY OF GEN. FELIX
 DlAz FOR PRESIDENT.
DIAz HAS BEEN RECALLED
Ordered to Return From Europe at Once-Washingto Administration Thinks no Reply is Necessary to Huerta's Message.

Mexico City. Sept 1S.-lnstruc.ions have been sent by President Huerta to Gen, Felix Diaz, who now is in Europe, to return Immediately to Mexico It is ordered that he sail within few days
 This fact is learned on high au. thority and i. is regarded here as in- dicatng that General Huarta intends to abide by the pact signed at the American embassy last February to place no obstacle in the path of Gen eral Diaz in his candidacy for the presidency
 |. is considered probable that Gen eral Huerta will throw his influence to Diaz, which would practically in sure his election.
 The partisans of Diaz have not ceased to labor in his behalf and as sert that they have organized up- wards of 5000 clubs" throughout the republic Up to the present, General Diaz is he only candidate in the field.
 The Catholic party, which is the only big organization likely to put forward a candidate in opposition, held a convention several weeks ago and adjourned without naming a can didate The leaders of that party have called another convention for next Sunday It is no secret that they favor Huerta and in the pre- vious convention they decided to sup port the president should he again become candidate General Huerta however, has given no indication of such intention.
 Much comment has been caused by the selection by President Huer-a of Eduardo HamariZ, one of the most prominent among the younger lead CTS of the Catholic party, for the portfolio of public instruction in his cabinet, vacated by Jose Maria Lo- zano who has been transferred to .he department of communication and public works. Tamariz has never held an important public office, al though for several years he has been identified closely with political af- fairs.
  recently agreed to finance the admin is.ration to the extent of 12,0000 900 to 15,OO0,000 pesos have declined to offer any hope of assistance dating beyond the coming elections.
 General Trevino, who was selected by General Huerta to head the mili- tary court. has declined the post, giv ing as his reason ill-health and his advanced age. It is expected tha+ he will remain in the capital for the present.
 Such newspapers as commented on the presidents message have voiced mild approval of it, none of them at taching particular significance to any portion.
 There were no disturbances on in dependence day in any part of the republic.
