Rcman Senate.

The Roman senate was a judicial and legislative body and for several centuries numbered 300 men, carefully selected from the patriclans. The ma Iority of votes decided a question, and the order in which the senators spoke rnd voted was determined by their rank. Their decisions, called senatus cousuIta. were the supreme law of the republic. from which, of course, there was no appeal After the establish mcnt Of the empire the character of the senate was greatly lowered, and at last lt became simply the tool of the emperor, to do his bidding regardless of the conscqucnces.-New York Amer iCan.

Informed That United States Looks With Amazement
 and Adherence Upon His Course
HAS ASSUMED LEGISLATIVE POWERS IN MEXICO
Communications From President Wilson and Secretary Bryan Delivered by Charge O'Shaughnessy-For Govern. mens Notified of Action Taken-ast Diplomatic Effort of Adnnistraton-Depute to be Tried for Sedition

Washington, Oct 14.-The United states government today informed Pro- y1sional President Victoriano Huerta that it looked with abhorrence and amazement upon his assumption of both executive and legislative powers in Mexico, and that in view of his course could not regard as constitu- tional the lections planned for Octo- Der 26.
 Two notes, the one strongly phrased and written by Secretary Bryan, in quiring about the safety of the impris- oned members of the Mexican congress and the other drawn in forceful Ian guage by President Wilson himself, are said to constitute practically the last efforts of the Washington government to deal with the Huerta authorities by diplomatic means, unless there Is a decided change of spirit on the part of the officials in Mexico City.
 Hope of Constitutional Election Aban-
 doned.
 The negotiations through John Lind had progressed to the point where the state department accepted the endorse ment of Frederico Gamboa for the presidency as meaning the elimination of Huerta, and where it was confident ly hoped that a fair and free election would be held on October 26 Now, however, President Wilson has made it clear that the Washington government had with the events of the last few days-ths Imprisonment of the depu- ties and the establishment of q dicta- torship by Huerta-lost all hope of seeing a constitutional election held by the Huerta regime.
 All Foreign Governments Notified.
 The steps taken by the United States were formally communicated to all for eisn governments. No further negotia- tions are planned through diplomatic channels. and it would not be surpris- ing If John Lind, who has been waiting at Vera Cruz to observe the manner Tn which the Huerta officials carried out their promises. should return to the United States at once.
 Huerta's decree proclafming himseIf as in charge of the departments of 1n- terfor. administration, finance and war, were received here today and the text

THE NEW HAVEN FIRE
 ESCAPES INADEQUATE.
Startling Situation Disclosed as Result
 of Investigation.

New Haven. Oct. 14-That New Ha- ven presents a startling situation III the matter of inadequate fire escapes in the tenement section, is charged in the report of the civic federation on housing conditions in the city, just made public The report says that many wooden fire escapes are sull maintained.
 Out of total of 77 buildings said the report in which fire escapes were provided, P were found to be seriously deficient. ''The prevailing 'acrobauc fire escape" the report continues s'which consists of a ladder running vertically from the top of the, building with bars by which persons in case of fire may by going hand over hand reach the ladders, are so preposterous- ly inadequate as to be real menace in case of fire where older persons, or persons with children or luggage in their arms might attempt to use them
 ''In one case in a building of three stories not only are there no fire es- capes but no means of ingress or eXis except by a bridge leading into an other tenement on the same lot In another case in a five story building which is located on a corner, the nfe escapes which are constructed of iron, with wooden platforms, present an interesting condition. The platforms are used for storage pt poses and the wood of which they are composed oW- ing to oampaess and lack of sunshine, have become so decayed as 10 make them dangerous
 The report says that the conges- ton in the tenement district Is found to be extreme and figures out that there were 2S4 persons for every loo rooms,

given out at the state department. The documents were read at today's cab met meeting, and members of the cab- met expressed themselves as astonish. ca at the audacfty of General Huerta.
 Cabinet Approves Communications.
 They were apprised by President WiI- son of the nature of the two counrnlni- cations sent to General Huerta through Charge O'Shaughnessy and all voiced approval of the vigorous representa- ttons. The cabinet meeting was about to adjourn when press despatches an nounced that Senor Querido Moheno. Mexican minister of foreign affairs, had characterized the American communi- cations as "intemperate"
 Official Washington tonight awaited the formal reply being drafted by the Huerta administration. Charge O'ShaughneSSy reported that he had conveyed both communications and had been assured with respect to the imprisoned deputies that no violence would be done them, but that they would be tried for sedition.
 Huerta Regime UndeserVinq.
 It is the second note of the Ameri- can government, which is said to be only 150 words in length, practically breaking off negotiations with Huerta, which is believed to have prompted Forelgn Minister Moheno's description ''intemperate." Administration officials hold that with most of the members of the Mexican congress in jail, Q prom inent member of congress who dared to speak adversely to the Huerta ad- ministration still mysterfously conceal ed and the congress dissolved, it is impossible for the civilized world to believe that the Huerta group was cap- able of establishing and maintaining constitutional authority in the south eri republic They also feel that thu HuePta officials are no longer deserv- ing of such diplomatic relations as have hitherto existed.
 As yet there is no concrete evidence that the Washington administration intends to use drastic measures The White House has discouraged the heads of the army and navy from talk ing any steps that would give an alarTniSt impression.
