WASHINGTON. Feb. 17.-President
elect Wilson's new book which is en-
titled THE New Freedom" and which
made its appearance today, excited
much interest among representatives
and senators.
Democrats generally, who were ask
ed for an expression of opinion declar-
ed in carefully qualified phrases, they
believed the president-elect had taken
exactly the right stand on most of the
political questions of the day.
Some of the Progressives questioned
the propriety of Wilson's utterances
regarding Theodore Roosevelt, saying
it would have been much better had
Wilson omitted mention Of Roosevelt.
The most discussed phase of the
Wilson declaration was his comment
on the money trust.
"It is ridiculous to assert" said Re
preventative ]. Hompton Moore. OF
Philadelphia, that just because some
man or group of men are unable TO
, finance a particular project that all
the money is in control of a money
trust. It is patent that the owner.
ship OF all the money in the world by
single individual or a number of in
dividuals is impossible. OF course
il improper methods have been used
/ in manipulation of the machinery OF
credit. government method could be
resorted to with good effect. ! think
Mr.. Wilson should be careful to avoid
the errors that many other persons
have made in talking about this sub
ject."
Agrees With Wilson.
when Mr. Wilson says there is a
monopoly of credit in this country
said Representative Stevens of Ne
braska. "he is stating a fact that hal
been well demonstrated in the recent
investigation. IL / were given un
limited credit I would soon own the
world. take IL the new president
will see the evils Of the concentration
of wealth that has been going on ant
avert a serious danger TO the country.
Representative Lafferty of Oregon
declared Wilson's remarks relative {,
Roosevelt savored of the campaign
personalities and he did not thinl
Wilson should put in book form de
cfarations that might not receive am
pie consideration outside of tim,
when political activity was at feve
heat.
However" said Mr.. Lafferty, "Wil
sons criticisms of Roosevelt will no
be taken seriously. The statemen
that the colonel is in favor of Legal
ICED monopoly and all that is SO at
surd that nobody ought to be deceive,
by It. To say that Roosevelt subord
mates the workingmen of the countr
to monopoly is absolutely ridiculous
The people whose cause the colone
has been championing know bette
than that"

REPORT FROM WILSON.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 17.-Ambassa.
dor Wilson today informed the state
department that heavy fighting contin.
ues in Mexico City but that it was i'm
possible to obtain details without send
ing men outside the confines of the
embassy, and this was too dangerous
President Madero assured the state
department that communication be-
tween the American embassy and the
white house will be kept open and
would not be subject to censorship,
but that a strict censorship would be
exercised over all press dispatches and
that nothing would be permitted to go
through which might initiate against
the good of Mexico or her govern
ment-"
The state department announced
that it will be the policy OF the admin

The body of a man believed to be
that of John Barker of Connersville,
was found on the c. & o. railroad
tracks, one mile southeast OF the
Wernle Orphans Home this morning.
The coroner believes the man conf
mitted suicide.
The skull Of the man was lying at
the place where the fatality is beliey-
ed to have occurred, when found by
the coroner, although the rest of the
body was lying thirty feet from the
scene, where it had been dragged by
the train.
It is not known who found the body
and reported the matter to the coron-
er, although the informant Is believed
to have been one of the employees of
the G. & O. railroad.
Coroner Pierce was notified of the
fatality at seven o'clock this morning
and Immediately investigated. The
body was reported to be in the neigh
borhood of Boston and it took more
than an hour to find the place where
Barker was killed.
Blood on Tracks.
The blood on the tracks proved to
be fresh and 1t is believed the victim
was killed at comparatively early
hour this morning. The theory of sui
eide on the part of the coroner Is due
.-to-the fact that the mans coat and hat
were lying on the ground several feet
from where the body was found. The
head, which had been severed, was ly-
ing to the north of the body which
would indicate that the train which
killed him was scuth-bound.
1t is possible that the man was
murdered. According to the coroner
the man must have thrown himself on
the tracks in front of a southbound
train. The back of his skull was
caved in.
Letter Was Found.
The sum of 1895 was found on his
person. A notice that his taxes were
delinquent was the only paper found
in his clothes. The notice was sent
to him from the office of the county
treasurer of Fayette county and was
addressed to John Barker, 1915 Cen
trail avenue, Connersville, Ind" II the
letter does not belong to the dead
man, it is not known how his identity
can be traced.
Coroner Pierce attempted to tele
phone to relatives of Barker in Con
nersville, although he was unable te
locate them up to a late hour this aft
ernoon.
A tramp resembling the descrip
tion of Barker was seen to board ths
fast southbound C. & o. freight trair
this morning when it left this city a
5:21. The man was riding "bline
baggage according to the person
who saw him get on the train If tn,
train slackened speed before it lef
the city Barker may have jumped
off. Another theory is that the maj
was injured by falling off the trail
near where he was killed.

Rebels Reply Vigorously and
Blood Flows for the Ninth
Day in Mexico City Bat
tie.
FOREIGNERS LEAVE
THE BLOODY CITY
Rebels Supply of Provisions
Is Running Low and They
Are Butchering Dead
Horses Now.
tNational News Association,

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 17.-With the
opposing forces holding their respec-
tive positions the ninth day of the bat.t
tie of Mexico City began today with
brisk bombardment of the two
strongholds.
Shortly before o'clock Diar's rebel
artillery opened fire on the national
palace and soon the guns of Madero's
batteries were booming in reply.
Machine guns and small arms added
their rattle to the steady thunder OF
the cannon. Shell-scarred. blood-stain-
ed Mexico City was given no promise
of peace with the beginning of the
new week. On the contrary indications
were that fighting would continue sew
eral days longer IL the rebels were not
driven out by starvation or Madero's
troops went back on him.
Get Range On Palace.
BY 1880 the cannonade had become
general and shells and missiles were
dropping about the national palace and
bullets were falling like hail every
where. Rebel gunners apparently had
the exact range OF the palace and
shells were exploding in the court
yard and above the roof.
Hundreds of foreigners including
many Americans had taken advantage
of the short truce Sunday and fed
still in jeopardy. II the truce had
gone it's limit few. IL any of the for
eigners would have been exposed to.
day.
Special prayers were offered In
nearly all the churches while clouds
of battle smoke were rolling up from
the plaza where the gunners were
working their artillery. The federals
worked their guns vigorously while
the fire Of the rebels seemed slower.
! The casualties up to date were plae.
ed as high as 5000 killed and wounded
while more conservative estimates
placed the figure at 500. Both Madero
and Diaz were living up to their agree
ment today to try to keep from kill
ling foreigners. The American EN-.
bassy was out of the line of fire az
the federal cannon had been removed
from proximity to the British lega'
ton.
A party of rebels left the arsenal
this forenoon and dragged several
carcasses of dead horses into an Inn
lprovised abbation. where they were
lquartered an dthe meat distributed ia
the soldiers. This confirms Madero's
declaration that the rebels provision
lsupply was very low. Many OF the
carcasses had been exposed to the ho'
sunshine for several days.
