SHOOTS IN POCKET.
Friend Hits Pal With Stick, Dischars-
ing Pistol.

As Deputy Sheriff Sanders was g.
coring Judge Hayne F. Rice OF Aiken,
presiding over circuit court at An
derson, through the court house to q
hotel for dinner recess Thursday, q
friend struck the officer with = stick,
causing the officers pistol to be dis
charged. The bullet tore the seat Of
Sanders trousers, struck the tiled
floor, glanced and buried itself in a
window jam. The incident caused
some excitement as the corridor Of
the court house was crowded at the
time. While Deputy Sanders was re-
monstrating with the man who dealt
the blow Judge Rice remarked char
acteristically that the man "had act
ed very foolishly". The bullet harm
ed no one. The blow causing the dis
charge Of the pistol was dealt in a
friendly way and the man dealing the
blow was as much surprised as any
body when the pistol fired.

leo by the United States and other
nations there has been much discus
sion. both at Washington and abroad
since the election Sunday under su-
pervision Of the Huerta provisional
government.
President Wilson, In two public
speeches, has outlined general pol
Icy Of cooperation with all Latin
American nations, and from France
and England have come assurances
Of q desire to cooperate with the
United States upon soHe concerted
effort to restore peace and good goV-
ernment In Mexico. Germany, which
recently sent war vessel to Me1i-
can waters, now has siEnified de-
sire to enter such . cooperative
peace-making enterprise.
That all the foreign nations are
looking to the United States to take
the Initiative Is certain, and the sit
uation presented makes It imperative
that this government submit q plan.
There is much speculation as to what
is to be proposed, but it is declared
to be certain that whatever the plan,
it will demand the elimination of
Huerta and the government which
arose after the revolt against Nadero,
and provide for q Mexican constitu-
tional election which can be recog-
nized by tho United States.
With Great Britain, Germany and
France Joining the United States in
a demand for Huerta's resignation,
and for o free and fair election, it
has been asserted confidently by high
officials at Washington that Huerta
would yield and that new govern
ment could be established without in
tervention. This would necessitate a
cessation Of all hostilities and coop
Grafton on the part Of Mexican revo-
lutionists.
The sincerity Of France was shown
when she requested the sending OF a :
ship to the Pacific to protect her ns-
tiyes in San Ignecio. Sinaloa.

DEATH OR INSANITY.
Philadelphia Policeman Has to Make
Choice.

Bartholomew Regan, Philedel-
phia policeman, has been called upon
to decide between death and insan-
ity. He mas chosen the latter. and Is
now in his home in the Quaker City,
awaiting the time when the intense
pains from which he suffers. and
which can not be cured, shall break
down his reason.
Regan's trouble, which offers him
no choice save either the tomb or q
padded cell, began six months ago
when he was shot in the head by an
Italian whom he was trying to arrest.
At first the injured mans condition
was so critical that It was impossible
to remove the bullet and It was al
lowed to remain, physicians hoping
1t would work nearer the surface,
where it could be removed.
But the bullet In travelling the 9TH
or way, and the resulting pressure on
the mans brain causes tho most in
tense pains. It would seem q simple
matter to remove it, but the c1ty's
most prominent men Of medicine,
called IN consultation, agreed that 1t
would mean instant death for Resan
were an operation to remove the
leader missile undertaken. On tho
other hand. tho physicians agreed
that the intense pain Il is causing
must eventually drive the man In
sane.
The nature of his case was explain
ed to the sufferer. but tho best they
could offer him was either death OF
insanity. The brave policeman heard
tho verdict with the utmost calm
ness. Then on the advice Of the ply
eicians, Regan went to his homo,
there to endure the sutferinss as best
he can until it shall break down his
reason.
ReEan suffers the most excrueiat-
Ing pains when any one speaks above
whisper in his presence. The noise
of the street drive him to distrac-
tion. He declares that at times his
head feels as If a triphammer was in
active operation there. This. the
physicians explain, is the result Of
the bullet. having broken away the
bones of the skull, now presses upon
the brain itself, 80 that every nerve
vibration. no matter how faint. and
every beat Of pulse In the tiniest OF
blood vessels causes the agony.
Policeman Regan Is brave man.
even II insanity is his inevitable end.
but he occasionally laments the fact
that he did not choose death.

Britain, Germany and France, have
agreed to adopt no new policy To-
ward Mexico until the government Of
the United States can submit for their
consideration a definite plan for the
future treatment Of the revolution
torn republic in Central America.
That q request OF the Powers to
await q proposal regarding Mexico
from this government had been
made, and that the three great Euro
pean nations had yielded to the re-
quest, was announced late Tuesday
by Secretary Bryan.
President Wilson was en- route to
Washington from the South when the
announcement was made, and the
Secretary Of State did not indicate
what would be the nature Of the con-
templated negotiations with the fore
going governments. The President
arrived at Washington late Tuesday
night and planned to confer with Mr..
Bryan.
When the note to the Powers is
to be presented has not been deter
mined, but the belief prevails that
reasonable time will be given tor the
announcement from the Huerta gov
ernment in Mexico, Of the result OF
last Sundays election for new gov
ernment.
That this announcement will be
that the election Of new President
had failed, because of the insufficient
cy Of the vote, still is the expectation
Of officials at Washington and 1t IL
believed President Wilson and his ad-
visers are proceeding On the theory
that some concerted movement must
be made by the governments inter-
ested in Mexico to rid that nation Of
the domination of Gen. Huerta.
Though interest In this develop
ment overshadowed all else in O
cial circles at Washington, the fight
of Gen. Felix Diaz from Vera Cruz
to refuge on the American gunboat
Wheeling was much discussed. and
Tuesday night Rear Admiral Fletch-
er was notified by Secretary Bryan
that political refugees can bs shield
ed only temporarily.
Admiral Fletcher, who is in COM
mand Of the American ships in Mex
lean waters, notified the Washington
government early in the day that
Diaz, with two Mexican companions
and an American newspaper man.
had been granted the right Of asylum
on tho Wheeling after pleading that
their lives were endangered. The
admiral asked for instructions as to
their disposition.
The State department first instruct
cd him to inquire Of Mexican refu-
gees where they wished to 80. Later
tho department notified the admiral
that within a reasonable time they
must be transferred from tho Ameri- |
can war vessel. They may be placed
aboard q commercial liner bound for
Havana or New York, as they choose.
It was believed that Diaz and his
friends would ask to be placed
aboard an American-bound ship and
that until such disposition could be
made Of them, Admiral Fletcher
would permit them to remain aboard
one of the United States ships in
Mexican waters.
As to tha future treatment Q? Neg

day.

At the close Of the Mexican cleo
tions Sunday the indications were
that not sufficient votes had been
cast In Mexico to constitute q legal
choice for the presidency to succeed
Gen. Huerta. No oficial announce
msnt was made Sunday night, but 1t
vas unon1cially estimated that less
than 1o.oee of the, $4,000 eligible
voters in tho republic went to the
polls. It would be no surprise If
Congress. the members Of which also
we're voted for Sunday, declared the
election void when that body is or
gani9ed and rsvises the returns.
The leaders Of tbs Catholic party
claimed q long lead. although they
were unable to estimate the number
Of votes polled for their candidates,
Federico Gamboa and Gen. Rascon.
II this claim is correct, 1t Is general
ly thought that Gen. Felix Dias and
Senior Requena are second. The Lib
sral candidate. Manuel Calero and
Flores Aagon, had no printed tickets
at tho pollings placee. their constitu-
snts being obliged to write their
names on blank ballots. President
Huerta did not vote. He spent the
day at his suburban homo.
a decree was issued BY Gen. Huer-
ia Monday increasing tho army from
$4,000 men. its alleged present num-
bsr, to 10000. Since the Deputies
and Senators are not subject to the
election provisions governing the
presidential elections, 1t Is said that
tho choice for Congress Is assured.
II is assumed that the Catholic party
will have q majority in both Chamber
and Senate.
The elections promised by the Pro-
visional President, Cen. Huerta, were
held and there was no semblance Of
disorder IN any quarter Of the city.
