ON POLICE DUTY
Five United States Warships
Ordered to Central America.
To Protect Property and Per-
sons in Case of War.

Washington, Feb. S.-Preparations
for rushing five United States men of
war to both coasts of Central America
to meet any emergency which may
arise from the brewing unrest there
went forward rapidly today. The gun
boat Annapolis with her crew of
jackieS augmented from the South
Dakota and Colorado started last
night from San Diego, Calf, for
Amapal, Honduras, to stand guard on
the Pacific side. The Nashville at
New Orleans is making ready for sea
and is expected to put out for Puerto
Cortes Honduras. on the Atlantic
side early Monday morning. The
cruiser Des MOines, now at Guantana-
mo, the Cuban naval station for coal
ing, has been ordered to Bluefield,
Nicaragua not later than Feb. IS.
The Denver, which has been standing
by distressed Americans threatened by
attack of rebels at Acapulco will put
from there in d day or two and drop
down to Acajutla, Salvador.
1t is practically decided these four
ships whose movements were decided
upon late yesterday after Washing
ton had received reports of possible
trouble in the Latin republics, will be
augmented by the gunboat Tacoma
now at Boston. Final orders for her
movement have not been issued but
are expected today.
From it's confidential sources in
Central America ominous and specula-
tive reports have been received of
juntas, of deposed dictators and revo-
lutionists meeting here and there
plotting to stir up trouble. While the
presence of American warships would
be principally intended to provide
refuge for Americans and other for
eign citizens there is no doubt that
marines and blue jackets might be
used in the interior if a situation
should arise paralle1ing that in Mica
ragua in the recent revolution when
American troops were called upon to
open the railroad and openly engaged
the rebels in battle.
There has been sharp criticism in
congress of this governments interfer-
ence in the Nicaraguan row. but it is
said President Taft and Secretary
Knox are firmly convinced of their
right to use American forces for the
protection of United States citizens
and property whenever a state of an
archy exists in Central America or
the established government fails to
do so.

Mr.. Curtis is the sickest appendicitis

closed when he swallowed a strong
solution. The man wos found working

months ago.
Although it was intended that only
liquids should be taken through the
tube, Week developed an appetite for
meats and vegetables and after mas
tlcating them successfully introduced
them into the stomach through the

Another point in his case is that the
physician has been able to observe the
stomach when absolutely empty, IN op-
portunity almost impossible to find
because of the mingling of saliva with
the juices of the stomach.

Is Facing an Angry Mob OF
Striking Miners.
ARMED WITH MODERN RIFLES
And Rapid Fire Gun, but Asks
for Troops.
Martial Law Prevails in the
Disturbed Region.

Charleston. Feb. S.-Gov. Glasscock,
Adjutant General D. D. Elliott and
other state officers awaited with anx-
iety today information from Mucklow
concerning the fate of Sheriff Bonner
Hill and 25 deputies, of Kanawha
county, reported to be facing an an
gry mob of striking miners in the little
mountain village.
With Sheriff Bonner Hill and his men
were Captain Guy Levy and mall
party of mine guards and it was their
belief that they could maintain their
position for an indefinite period They
are armed with modern rifles and a
rapid fire gun
Sheriff Hill asked the governor to-
day for troops but at the executive OIL
flee it was stated no action would he
taken until the details of last night S
rioting had been received here. Sig
nificance is attached to the fact that
two miles from the scene of last nlght
skirmish is located one of the largest
camps of striking miners in the Kama
Wha coal fields
Shooting from the train attacked on
the Chesapeake & Ohio railway dur
ing the night was in the direction of
the camp, and it was feared that II
any of the women and children had
been hurt the sheriff and MS men
would be unable to restrain the angry
men, as they Outnumbered the posse
ten to one, and are said to be well
armed.
The martial law proclamation un-
der which troops were sent into the
coal fields last year is still in force
The legislature is in session and it
was rumored here that the governor
would confer with some of the leaders
before answering the call of Sheriff
Hill for troops
Train Shot Up.
A Chesapeake & Ohio passenger
train was shot up last night; the town
of Mucklow, w. v, was riddled with
bullets and a physician, with a man
dying, driving through the district,
was fired upon. When the physician
arrived at a hospital the patient was
dead.

There is anxiety here as to their next

IT WAS PICTURE REEL.
And Not an Internal Machine That
Came to Hodges Office.

That internal machine" received by
Governor Hodges ten days ago was
not an internal machine, but a mega
tive reel of moving pictures taken
during the inaugural parade January
13. The mysterious tin box that has
alarm and worry ever since the missive
was received at the governors office,
was opened last night by Grant Har-
rington, private secretary to the gov
ernor.
A half dozen state house clerks
stood at a safe distance as Harrington
pried open the little tin box and Incl
dentally ruined good pair of state
house scissors. Sam Seaton, parole
and pardon clerk, was positive that
some wicked representative of the Red
Hand Or Malta interests had sent the
new Kansas governor a dose of nitro
glycerine and he failed to sleep nights
fearing that some of the clock work
attached to the machine would go
wrong and blow the state house over
into Wyandotte county. Then Har-
rington took an evening off, voIun-
teered to surrender his life in the in
tereSt of satisfying curiosity as to the
contents of the tin box and made the
discovery that the contents of that
box was only a greeting from a pic
ture film house whose representative
had come to Topeka to put Governor
Hodges and the inaugural parade in
the movies.
Harrington took the reel of pictures
to a local picture show house, but as
the reel was one of negatives instead
of positives the display was not very
hattering. However it gave good
idea of the inaugural parade and
showed where the movie man had in
duced the governor to pose on the
state house steps.

were so insistent that he was ex-
tremely worried about having sue
cumbed to ptomaine poisoning, and
visited the hospital Tuesday morning
to see what was wrong.
Better go to bed till you're feeling
better advised Dr. Freeman.
In the middle of the afternoon Mr..
Curtis pulse and temperature rose
alarmingly. An operation for appen-
dicitis was performed within the hour
by DR.. Freeman.
He has been seriously ill from that
time on,'' said DR.. Bischoff, gravely.
Mr.. Curtis has complained of ;ndi-
gestion for several years, and the doc
tors opine that the attacks were the
milder form of appendicitis. The
doctors are hopeful, but not encour-
aging. 1t is certain that the patient
could not have lived without the
operation, it is possible that he may
not live with it.
Every day he pulls through de-
clared DIR. Bischoff, gives him lit
tie better chance"

Hutchinson, Kan, Feb. S.-After
q driving 80 miles on the cold night. in

tax laws is legal Hawley owned Atch-
