vELASCO KILLED
WHEN RANSOM
IS NOT PAID TO
THE zAPATISTAS
Brother Arrives Too
Late-Claimed to Be
Frenchman

Vera Cruz, July delay in the
payment Of ransom of 100000 Pc
SOS has resulted in the execution by
Zapatistas Of Juan Velasco, the man
ager Of a cotton manufacturing con-
Germ, who was taken prisoner near At
ixco, state of Puebla. according to
Velasco's brother. who left Vera Cruz
yesterday for the purpose of obtaining
his release, but returned tonight from
his unsuccessful mission. The prisoner
Velasco was compelled to send to the
officials of the company in Puebla
the demand for the ransom, and We
lasco's brother started out immediate
ly to aid him. He proceeded to Apiz-
AGO, near Puebla, where he was going
to get in touch with the Zapatistas
when he was informed that the cap
tive had already been killed
When he related the story to his
aged mother and sister they tainted.
The circumstances of the case have
been placed on record at the French
consulate, with the claim that We
lasco was a Frenchman, not a Span
lard, as was previously thought.

Bankruptcy Proceedings

Bankruptcy Proceedings
The following petitions in bankrupt
cy were filed in the United States
clerk of courts office Monday: George
A. Sleeves of Millinocket. Liabilities,
SS2.6s; no assets; w. c. Conary, at
torney; Guy S. Hawskey of Mars
Hill, liabilities. 9$51.13. no assets, N. s.

Capt. w. Dec. Moore Resigns
Capt. Walter Dec. Moore of Port
land, who has been quartermaster of
the Maine Coast Artillery Corps for
some time, has rendered his resigna-
ton to Col. Peterson and the same
has been accepted. The duties of the
position under the new military or
ganization amount to a combination of
quartermaster, commissary and pay
master, all rolled into one and It is
fair sort Of permanent job for even
busy man. Capt Moore has to do a
little in the life insurance business
also and he felt that he could not be
expected to put more time into the
military duties than he was putting
In. Hence not being willing to half do
his military work and leaving a lot
or details undone he decided that the
better way was to drop out Of the
position. 1t is probable that Lieut.
Robert c. Foster will take the posi-
ton. If this arrangement Is satisfac-
tory he will probably be commissioned
at once in order to take over the
property and attend to the duties of
a quartermaster at the annual en-
campment which will begin July is.

precaution and they did not make the

WARbURC MAY.
YET BE MEMBER
OF THE FEDERAL
RESERVE BOARD
Reported as Wavering
Under Urging by
President

washington, July with President
Wilson urging Paul M. Warburg, the
New York banker to reconsider his
request that his nomination as a men,
Der of the Federal Reserve Board be
withdrawn, 1t was reported tonight in
circles close to the White House that
MIR. Warburg was wavering and that
there was possibility of his chang
ing his mind.
During the Afternoon Mr.. Warburg
and the Presidents secretary, Mr..
Tumulty, talked over the telephone,
and Mr.. Warburg then expressed his
determination not to take the place.
Later President Wilson telegraphed
urging him strongly to reconsider his
decision.
Confirmation Probable
Despite opposition to Mr.. Warburg
in the Senate. friends of the President
have assured him that the New York
bankers nomination can be confirm
ed. The President himself is said to
believe he will have a hard time find
ing another man as familiar with for
eign banking conditions who will ac-
cept the place.
Members of the Senate banking COM
mittee We're inclined today to consid-
er that Mr.. Warburg would finally
eliminate himself by his telegram to
Chairman Hitchcock declining to ap-
pear and submit to questioning by the
committee. In this message, made pub
lie soon after the announcement from
the White House of the request for the
withdrawal of the nomination, Mr..
Waiburg said he felt the action of the
committee in holding up his appoint
ment- and one other, while three were
confirmed. would impair his usefulness
as 3 member of the Reserve Board.
1t was said at the Capitol If the NOM
nation were not withdrawn, the com.
nittee in all probability would insist
upon the appearance of the banker for
examination concerning his business
Affairs and those of his Arm, Kuhn,
Loeb & Co.
No action has ben taken by the
committee on the nomination of Thorn
as D. Jones of Chicago, who appear
eG yesterday to tell of his connection

Governor Haines and John A. Peters
Give Facts

ter, and he exercised appropriately his
ready wit in introducing Governor
Haines as the first speaker.
Governor Haines
The Governor was given a grand
big welcome and great applause. His
talk was largely extemporaneous He
declared the argument Is all with the
Republican party in the campaign.
Cur Democratic friends say it is a
matter of State issues. I think they
are afraid Of the tariff question" he
asserted. In the matter of State issues,
the Governor averred that the Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor is out
and out for license, but that 1t was not
the sentiment Of the people in this
State. 1T is dig in the back, they
have got 10 times the trouble we have
and they know it, there never was a
time when the Republican party and
principles are needed as today" said
the Governor.
Congressman Peters
Congressman Peters was the next
speaker He said: 1T is great pleas
uIe to me to meet this bunch of con-
stltuents, not because 1t is polite, but
because feel I am proud to represent
you. am proud to say that 1 repre-
sent the only pure Down East Yankee
people in this district" Mr.. Peters
said he believed the Republican party
