belief that the government so rec
ognized will faithfully execute it's du-
ties and observe the spirit of its
treaties. The recognition of a presi-
dent in Mexico by the United States
has an important moral influence
which, as you explained, is appre-
ciated at the capital of that republic.
1T aids to strengthen the power
and lengthen the tenure of the in
cumbent, and IT, as you say, the ex-
ample of the United States in that
regard Is one that other nations are
disposed to follow, such recognition
would not be without effect-both
upon the internal and external peace
of Mexico. You justly remark that
in fifty years there have been about
sixty changes of administration In
Mexico, and 1t may be added that
those administrations have been
longest lived that were most faithful
and friendly in the discharge of their
treaty obligations to the United
States"

Won RICHTHOFEN ATTACKS
AMERICAS MEXICAN POLICY

BERLIN, Aug. 26.-Whats he calls
Americas do nothing policy" is crit
icised today by Baron Hartmann Won
Riehthofen. formerly secretary of the
German embassy at Washington, later
charge d'affaires of the German lega-
ton at Mexico City, and now a mem
Der Of the Reichstag, in an article In
the Zeitung Am Mittag.
The baron demands that speedy
steps be taken to establish q perma-
nent government in Mexico This
he says. is possible by means of a
strict closing of the frontier, for rev.
olution would be impossible without
the importation of arms by filibusters
and Provisional President Huerta
would not find the necessary funds in
Europe to maintain his army If the
United tates would act even in this
negative way.
IF America is unwilling on moral
and other grounds to give this sup
port to Provisional President Huerta,
the government should announce 1t
openly, but should offer to his success
sor guarantees for the absolute clos
ing Of the frontier to both men and
arms"
General Huerta, the writer con-
cludes, is probably patriot enough to
retire under these conditions.

Maytorena today that the rebels of
Sinaloa had driven the federals from
all important points In the State, ex-
cepting Culiacan, the capital, and

PROGRESS|VES TO !
GIVE COLBY AID
Entire Militant Force of Party
Behind Him if He Is
Nominated.

If Everett Colby is successful at
the primaries for the Progressive
nomination for governor the entire
fighting force of the National Pro-
gressive party organization will come
into New Jersey in his behalf. This
was made known last night at the
Newark Colby Leagues smoker, at
the Continental Hotel.
To Offset the move of the Edmund
B. Osborne faction in putting up an
independent Assembly ticket, those
at the meeting decided to follow suit
by putting up candidates pledged to
Mr.. Colby. To make the selections
the following committee was APP
pointed: Charles Herbert Walker,
Charles Clifford Tinker, William II.
Smith and George NJ. Denny. This
committee will meet tonight.
The Outlook Hopeful.
Algernon II. Sweeney, chairman OF
the league, presided and stated that
the outlook was hopeful. He face
tiously referred to Mr.. Osborne as
DR.. Dulcamara. the quack physician
in the elixir of Love-" who, with
his bottle of elixir, was able. to cure
all ills.
Mr.. Colby said that people were
running up and down the State say
ing that he was silent on this or
other matters and therefore opposed
to 1t. "These people," he continued,
will say that L am in favor of muir
der because l have not said anything
on that subject; or again have said
nothing regarding the man beating
h tC Hurff fhnrnfnN~n II wet he fv,f r,x,
of such domestic eruptions."
Mr.. Colby accused the so-caIled
radical wing of the party in this
State of aspiring to things that could
not be accomplished in a generation.
I'VE need such dreamers," Mr. Colby
continued, but I for one want to
work in an organization that tackles
the first practical work on hand to
relieve the suffering of mankind"
His Remedial Plan.
That the abolition of trusts alone
did not bettA the conditions of prices
or wages, Mr. Colby asserted, but
that the only practical remedy lay in
a properly composed interstate COM
merce commission that saw to 1t
that secrecy was barred from
the transactions of these great COM
binations. Mr.. Colby also accused
his opponents of being inconsistent in
that they wanted one thing today and
another tomorrow, whereas the main
factor to achieve anything for the
benefit of the people rested on a
policy of continuity.
First Assistant Prosecutor Wilbur
A. Mott, the next speaker, denounced
as absolutely out of the question any
idea of getting together" There
can be only one way of getting to-
gether and that is If the others adopt
our platform principles"
Nathan Berger, who will be one OF
the men on the Colby Assembly
ticket, urged the men to go out and
hustle for Mr.. Colby. 1.-THE time has
come when we must stop convincing
ourselves that Mr.. Colby is the man
wanted" he said, land go out and
convince those who are still in
doubt" Others who made remarks
were Edgar HI. Bostock, of Nutley,
and William J. Smith, of West Or
ange.

GREGORY FORCES
KEEPING At WORK
Petitions for State Committee
man Are Being Circulated
in East Orange.

There is a rumor current in EaSt
Orange that the followers of Mayor
Julian A. Gregory, including a num-
Der of men who have been appointed
to office under the Gregory regime,
are busy obtaining signatures to the
Gregory petition for State committee
man and for the nominees in the vari-
Gus wards for county committeeman
desired by Gregory.
The mayor himself Is at Wilton,
Conn, at the present time. but from
the talk that is prevalent in East Or
ange his machine" Is apparently very
busy working for the mayors candi-
dates and attempting to discredit mis-
opponents.
Edmond A. Whittier, who has been
appointed the mayors manager in his
fight for the State Committee nomina-
tion;l Postmaster e. Tracy Lanter-
man, as well as a number of the city
officials, 1t is said, are frequently seen
with their heads together. and 1t is
evident that there is something in the
air. Mr. Whittier himself is a candi-
date for the County Committee in one
of the districts of the Third ward
and has had a petition in circulation
for a couple of weeks now, 1t is said
From pretty good authority 1t is
declared that City Assessor William
Day has beene specially active in be-
half of Mayor Gregory's candidacy
and in obtaining signatures for the
latter and his County Committee can
didates.
In one district it is said Mr.. Day
was asked II the petition was foI
MIR. Hart" meaning Charles N. Hart
who is at present member of the
County Committee from East Orange
and who was appointed a playground
commissioner under Gregory, but who
has recently broken with the latter.
To his questioner Mr.. Day Is said
to have replied that it was for Mayor
Gregory and that the latter was. out
against Hart.

WASHINGTON, Aug 26.-Investi-
cation of the lobby" proceeded to-
day before the special committees of
the Senate and House.
James A. Emery, counsel for the
National Association of Manufac-
turers. before the Senate committee
denied Martin M. Mulhall's allegations
that the manufacturers had at
tempted to pack congressional COM
mittees and pick leaders favorable to
legislation they were pressing.
Mulhall himself before the House
committee had a stormy session with
attorneys for Representative J. T.
McDermott. Mulhall declared he had
loaned at least $1,000 to McDermott.
IT can furnish the committee with
enough information about McDermott
SO that the people would tar and

without voice in their government, is
essentially a review of the mission of
John Lind and his negotiations with
the Huerta government.
The message cites as an almost
parallel precedent for the action Of
the administration today-the diff
eulties between President Hayes, in
overthrowing President Lerdo. sought
recognition from the United States.
Though foreign governments reeog
nized Diaz the United States waited a
year, not only until an election was
held, but until Ii was satisfied that
the government thereby set up could
guarantee international contracts.
The reference to this precedent led
to the belief that while 1t has hitherto
been supposed that Immediately fol-
lowing an election held by Huerta
recognition would be extended, the
likelihood was that the United States
would not extend the hand of friend
ship to the existing government or its
successor in Mexico for some time.
President Hayes, in 1877, saw fit to
order General Ord to the border with
power to cross into Mexico with
American troops to suppress maraud-
ing bands who were plundering the
property of Americans and retreating
across the Rio Grande. On that occa-
sion the federal government had been
lax In giving border residents protec-
ton, but as soon as troops were or
dered south. the Diaz government IN
dignantly announced that the en-
trance of any American soldiers into
Mexico would be regarded as an in
yasion and an act of war.
President Hayes's View.
The views of President Hayes as
expressed by Secretary Seward to
John w. Foster, American minister to
Mexico, and from which President
Wilson takes precedent for his policy
of today, were:
1.-THE government of the United
States In its dealings with the Mexi-
can republic has aimed to pursue not
merely a Just, but a generous and
friendly course. While earnest to
guard and protect the rights of its
own citizens and the safety of its
own territory, 1t does not seek to IN
tervene in political contests or
changes of administration.
1t is customary to accept and rec
ognize the results of popular choice
in Mexico and not to scrutinize closely
the regularity or irregularity of the
methods by which presidents are in
augurated. In the present case, 1t
waits before recognizing General Diaz
as the president of Mexico until 1t
shall be assured that his election Is
by the Mexican people, and
that his administration is possessed
of stability to endure and of dispo-
sition to comply with the rule of in
ternational comfy in the obligations
of treaties.
"Such recognition, IL afforded,
would imply something more than a
mere formal assent. 1t would imply

1908, after Thaw had killed STANFORD
White, and was now In the possession
of her lawyer, John Reilly, of this
CITY. Mr.. Reilly also had checks for
15.0oO-one of them for $1,000, bearing
Mrs. Mary Thaw's signature-none Of

CAM|NETT| CASE
GOES TO TRIAL
Question of Talesmen's Mar
rage Plays Same Part as
in Diggs Case.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 26.-The
second of the Diggs-Caminetti cases.
the trial of F. Drew Caminetti. who
Mann white slave act under which
his companion, Maury l. Diggs, was
convicted, was begun today in the
United States District Court before
Judge William C. Van Fleet.
The same witnesses who testified at
the trial of Diggs last week appeared
at the federal building, and, strug-
Cling through the crowd that had
gathered about the courtroom,
forced their way into the building,
shielding themselves as well as they
could from the battery of clicking
cameras trained upon them by news
paper photographers and representa-
tives of moving-picture concerns that
are making capital of the plight of
the youthful defendants and their
girl victims.
Corridors Crowded.
Hours before o'clock, when the
case was called the corridors outside
of the courtroom began to fill and
then the crowd overlooked to the
steps of the building and to the street.
The first forty-eigh places were
held at a premium. for 1t was known
that by edict of the court only that
number would be admitted.
Despite the fact that it was well
understood that no testimony would
be introduced today, as the time will
be given over to prospective jurors,
the crowd stayed on and among the
forty-eight at the head of the line
many were offered inducements of
various sorts to yield the- coveted
places.
Same Tactics Pursued.
The same methods that were pur-
sued In the examination of the tales
men at the Diggs trial were repeated
this morning. 1t was important both
to the defense and to the government
to learn whether talesmen under ex-
animation were married or single men
and whether they were men of
family.
The government, as was the case
at Diggs's trial, showed by the ques-
lions asked that 1t will seek to try
the case before a jury of men married
and with families.
Marsha Warrington and Lola Nor
ris were not in the courtroom, but
remained in an office nearby ready to
appear should their presence be de-
sired.
