MEANS HUERTA WILL
CONTINUE IN POWER
Few Votes Cast in General
Elections" for Presidency.

Mexico City, July 7.-Dictator HUI.
erta is leading in the farcial general
elections held Sunday for the presi.
dency.
1t will be weeks before all the re-
turns are in.
1t is considered a certainty that
the elections will be held invalid be-
cause of the small number of votes
and that Huerta will be again con
tinued by the Mexican congress as
provisional president"
The constitution provides for an
election throughout Mexico. The fed
erals control only a small part of the
republic, so the elections cannot be
legal. Moreover, in the sections con
trolled by the H~uertaistas, only a few
OF the voters Registered their will''
at the polls, according to advices here.

LORDS ADVANCE
HOME RULE BILL
Irish Measure Passes Second
Reading by Big Margin,

London. July THE house of lords
passed, 273 to 10, the second reading
Of the bill to amend the Irish home
rule bill.
That the house of lords would pass
the bill in order to amend it in com
mlttee was a foregone conclusion, but
there was surprise that only ten Idle
hards" could be found to vote for
Lord Willoughby de Broke's motion
for its rejection.
The Marquis of Crewe, in closing
the debate for the government, chal
lenged the opposition to guarantee
that there would be no civil war in
Ireland, even if the bill was amended
totally excluding Ulster.
For himself he did not hesitate tc
say that if John Redmond, the Irish
Nationalist leader; Sir Edward Car
son, the Ulster Unionist leader: Will
lam OBrien and two or three other
lrishmen could get together, it would
be a better augury for some perma
nent arrangement than any other kind
of a conference.

DEATH REMOVES
FAMOUS BR|T0N
Joseph Chamberlain Expires
After Long Illness.
STRONG FOR IMPERIALISM
His Policy as Premier Undoubtedly
Responsible for Great Britain's
War With the Beers.

London, July fright Honorable
Joseph Chamberlain, II of the most
commanding figures in British nation
al and international politics, is dead.
He succunbed after a protracted i'll
ness, The end was peaceful.
Mr.. Chamberlain's last public APP
.Dearance was at a garden party on
the grounds of his Birmingham home
May 6 last, when, with his wife and
Son, he received several hundred On
%stituents. Mr.. Chamberlain was
Wheeled out on the lawn in a chair
and appeared very emaciated and
feeble when he lifted his hat to
friends and n%eighbors in acknowl-
iedgment of their salutes.
Mr.. Chamberlain's death came as
an entire surprise, as the condition
at his health was not publicly known
ito be worse than at any time in the
past two or three years.
Mrs. Chamberlain was a daughter of
Nv. c. Endrott, secretary OF wal I'M
der President Cleveland.
"king of Birmingham"
Chamberlain was born in 1886 in
Birmingham, which he held political
,ly in the hollow of his hand. He was
known as the king of Birmingham"
All the seven parliamentary seats of
the great manufacturing city are held
by Chamberlain nominees and a poll
tician he opposed was simply wasting
time when he made the race.
The dead statesman started politi-
cal life as a Radical, but left Glad
stones party on the issue of home
rule for Ireland, to which he was OPP
posed. He held the highest posts un-
der Conservative administrations and
as secretary to the colonies from
1895 to 1902.
He went to great lengths to gain
his ends and was the most cordially
hated and loved political figure Of his
time.
His imperialistic policy, which led
to the South African war, was the
cause of assaults upon his person.
None of them were successful.

DESTROYS
TENEMENT HOUSE
Terrific Explosion Results in
-Four Deaths.
POLICE MAKE CHASTITY FIND
Believed Accident Occurred WhiIe
Bomb Was Being Prepared for
Use Against Rockefeller.

New York, July 6.-In the ruins OF
the Lexington avenue tenement house
wrecked by the premature explosion
of a powerful bomb which killed
Arthur Caron and three other persons
the authorities found evidence that
Caron's apartment was the center for
the distribution of inflammatory liter.
allure which was printed there and at
the time of the explosion it was APP
parently a bomb factory, filled with
the ingredients of death dealing mis-
siles.
A small printing press, revolution
airy pamphlets and circulars, an cleo
trio dynamo, two electric batteries,
cartridges and bits Of steel were
among the articles uncovered, which
tend, in the opinion of the police, to
show an anarchistic plot at assassina-
ton. That a demonstration, halted
by the bungling of some one who was
preparing an internal machine for it's
mission, was planned against the
Rockefeller family in Tarrytown is
the theory upon which the authorities
are working.
Faced Trial at Tarrytown.
Two of those killed in the wrecked
apartment were prominent agitators,
who were to be placed on trial at Tar
rytown on charges of disorderly con-
duct in connection with the campaign
Of demonstration inaugurated against
John ID. Rockefeller, Jr., as a protest
against his attitude in the Colorado
coal mine strike.
The body of the fourth victim of
the explosion was found. 1t was that
Of Charles Berg, known in l. w. w.
circles as the big Swede," an asso-
ciate of Caron. The other victims
were Charles Hanson and Mary Clas-
ton. The oma lived in an apart
ment next to the one occupied by
Caron and his associates.
A gruesome but suggestive piece of
evidence was a severed hand which
clutched pieces of wire made ready
for connections. The authorities be-
lieve that the owner of this hand was
in the act of making an electric con-
nection for one of the bombs and a
battery when the explosion occurred
and he was blown to pieces.
