RECOGNITION OF HUERTA
It Should Never Be Granted, Reader
Urges.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: In your editorial. Mexican Re-
Iations al Crisis" you criticise the Pres
dent for not having taken "a more reso-
lutte and decisive course" Well and good;
but your readers are left in the dark as TO
lust what decisive course" in your esti-
nation he should have taken in the prem
scs.
Among other things YOU say: I'm it's
unwillngness TO instantly condone' the
murder OF Madero and lin the de jure
recognition of it's beneficiary our govern
ment was unquestionably right
From the injection into this phrase
however, OF the qualifying adverb IN
stantly" one is led to infer that While
1t would have been wrong to have rec
oguiZed the traitor and murderer now
holding CD the reins OF government In
Mexico one month. say, after his ascen-
sion 10 power. the eight months interyen-
ing, contrdriwise, have suiiiced to rob his
treachcry OF its baseness, his murders Of
their wantonness and his despotism OF its
cruelty to such an extent as to justify at
this time extending to the Huerta regime
or its bastard offspring the hand of fell
owship hitherto justly withheld.
This Inference, though, may be some
roncous, az such "A position is hardly con-
gruous with your attitude as recently ex-
pressed, to wit. having declined to con-
done his crime az the murderer of men,
the United States Will not concur in his
assassination OF his country's constitu-
ton" But as the election now at hand is
in defiance of the Mexican constitution.
which, to use your own words. has al
ready been torn TO tatters." this Is ex-
actly what the United States would do
were 1t to recognize either Huerta or his
dummy.
AS look at il, Immediately upon his
elevation To office, before recognition had
been granted the Huerta regime by the
European nations the President should
have recognized Carranza and issued an
ultimatum calling for Huerta's abdication,
coupled with the threat to utilize the
armed forces at his command to that end
II necessary. But in delaying matters
until midsummer and announcing, con-
ttarlWlSe upon the departure or eN-GoV-
ernor Lind to treat. hat in hand. with the
traitor and assassin that Intervention was
not contemplated and that he would not
recognize Carranza either, the weakness
and inconsistency thus displayed by the
President, as you intimate, could but
lend encouragement to Huerta. with the
result that the negotiations were virtually
nullifed Of the force and effect they 9TH
erwise might have had.
However, as a result Of recent happen
ings south of the Rio Grande, the Presi-
dents backbone seems to be undergoing
the necessary stiffening process incident
to the PRONUNCIATION OF course not alone
resolute and decisive. but consistent as
well-glad to say! +. c. LOCKE.

DOES RABIES EXIST?
An Administrations Rejects the
Evidence Of Science.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The letter OF "Anti-Vivisectionist''
in The Tribune of Wednesday interested
me greatly, especially when so closely
followed by the news in Thursdays
Tribune that a death had resulted after
Pasteur treatment for hydrophobia. In
view OF these facts, the following passage
from the recent autobiography of Sir
Henry Smith, X. C. b., late Commissioner
of the City of London Police, may not be
without interest:
Years ago there was something like a
panic in London, hydrophobia having
claimed many victims. No one could
have worked harder than | did to dis
cover the victims in question. where they
lived and where they died; but l failed to
find one solitary case of either Illness or
death. / went to Bartholomew, and all

This amendment Is intended 10 help bring New
York State up to date in its for wOrkingmen
and their families
Amendment Number Three permits Kings County
to have two additional county judges. and in gen
eral provides that the Legislature may enact laws
increasing the number of county judges in any
county to a number not exceeding one for each
100000 inhabitants. Kings County needs additional
judges to take care of heavy court business
Amendment Number -Four permits the Legislature
to make laws sanctioning the building of water
storage reservoirs In the state forest preserve
which will food not more than 3 per cent of the
total area Of the forest preserve This stored water
may be used as n water supply for municipalities or
for generating power The cost of building the
reservoirs is TO he apportioned among the cities
and individuals benefited and the state is to re-
ceive adequate income for the benefits thus Gre
ated in the way Of water pply or water power
If the Legislature makes laws adequately protect
ing the states Interests this proposed change will
be wholesome It Will permit the utilization in
commerce of much very valuable power now run
ming to waste It will check disastrous spring floods
and produce an income for the state. 1t will be
no detrment to the forest preserve as about all
the land TO be flooded is unsightly and unhealthy
swamp land.
Voters are inclined 10 cast their ballots for can
didates and ignore the important matters involved
in changes in the states fundamental law. II Is
TO he hoped they will study these amendments care
fully and then vote for them.

Brown Denies "FlxInap

Flat denial was the answer OF At
torneyGencral Rufus +. Brown 90
the accusation of Harry X. Thaw that
he (Thaw) feared to stay in Vermont
because Jerome had the attorney-gen-
eral of the State fixed, when inter
viewed last night AT the Pavilion
hotel by reporter OF the Journal
The encouragement stated that
although he believed Mr. Jerome
brainy man and would be pleased to
meet him If his official duties ever
brought about an occasion for il, ne
has never seen or communicated viii.
that gentleman.
MIR. brown said the only New York
cMcial he had had any dealing with
in the Thaw case was eX-District At
torney Mack OF Duchess county, ~.
Y. who called on him a, his Office in
burlington while there to confer with
present District Attorney Conser o.
Duchess county in which Mat,ea-
wan asylum is located.
AT tina, time Attorney-General
Brown said 20 MIR. Mack that ii
Thaw came into Vermont, he didn't
think IL would be necessary to have
ans eX,radition papers; THAT the
keeper OF Madoawan institution had
a right 10 take Thaw wherever lie
could find him and return him to
th2 institution.
iie also said that he did not under
sake 70 speak for Governor Fictche
bu that he believed that ii the mat
cy came before the Governor, be was
competen, 10 attend TO his duties as
CHIEF executive.
The attorney-general said that the
keeper Of the institution az Mattea-
wan to which ThaW had been COM
mi,ed had the same righ, to the
custody of him ,ha, a parent has to
the custody of minor child or the
guardian of minor or insane per
son has 10 the person OF such ward.
ATTORNEY General Brown also be
lieves that the consensus of opinion
among lawyers will bear him out ia
,his belief. If this be true 10 seems
likely that Thaw will be apprehend-
ed whenever and wherever he is zee
leased upon writ or habeas corpus
OF by other legal procedure.
Ii Is also probable that had the
New York authorities and officials
been notified when Thaw was 20 De
deported in,o Vermont that they
would have been there and rushed
him back Immediately to Matteawan.
Attorney General Brown believes
Thaw a madman and Sn osoiist and
that 10 ne escapes Justice Inc will DE

Proved Accurate.

Away back at Easter time N.
Jacques Worth conf1ded to American
women his conviction that the three
TERED skirt would be popular this
season. M. Worth was quite right.
And now, not content with three tiers.
or flounces, or whatever you want to
call them, we are going to have four,
or five, or even more. A recent French
creation, for example, has no less
than nine Of these tiers" The CO.'S
tune is in white mousseline. and the
various stories" of the skirt are
finely plaitetd and finished with a
picot edge.
The top one is the deepest. extend.
ing from the waistline to below the
hips. The next one is about six
inches deep, and the successive ones
grow narrower and narrower, until
the ninth and last, which measures
only two inches in depth. The skirt
is lifted in front under a great dark
blue velvet rose at the waistline.
This makes 1t draw in around the
heels at the back and hike" up in
front to show the whole instep.
The waist has a flat fichu edged
with two plaitings, and double row
of these plaitings extends from the
front under the arms to simulate a
bolero. The sleeves are short and fin
ished with q plating Of the mousse
line. This costume is described, with
italics, as very much in the present
vogue.
