The expulsion from Torreon by the
triumphant Mexican Revolutionists

II may lead to serious complications.
The expulsion is incompatible with

the laws of civilized warfare. The
whom were born In Mexico, have ben
non-combatants and are. therefore,
entitled to protection from the con.
querers. Many Mexicans have pro-
fessed to hate the Spaniards since
the expulsion of the Spanish rulers,
and until comparatively recent years

the balcony of the National Palace

But the Spaniards In Mexico in these
days are a peaceable and providanI
part of the population, not numerous
enough to exert any appreciate polit
ical influence and there is no excuse
whatever for Villas ill-treatment o,
them except his knowledge that they
disapprove of him and his methods.
In this they differ very little from
most of the foreign residents of the
country. Suppose Villa should ban
ish the English French or German
residents and confiscate their prop
erty? OF course Spain will make
formal protest against this treatment
of her people, and 1t is not likely
that the United States Government
can avoid taking notice of the matter
officially.
Meanwhile we are forced to prov

to 700 newcomers in Southern Texas,

Ant Colonies.

An ant nest or colony arises from
eggs laid by one or more queens"
The developing young are tended by
the sexless ueuters. or workers" The
maggots. or larval ants. are fed by
them. often nourished out of the
nurses mouths. and are as carefully
watched In respect of the temperature
and other conditions of the nurseries
as are infantile human beings. When
full development occurs the pupae
change into ants. which are either
winged or winGless. The latter are the
"neuters." or workers. They may de-
velop big jaws and appear as the SOL
diers" of the colony. Those which are
winged are the founders of new colo
MES. They are of both sexes, and they
produce the eggs whence the new gen.
erations will be evolved.

HUtRIA TAKES HIS
TIME TO FIRE
THAT SALUTE
Washington Waiting for TIdlngs
from Tamplco
JOHN LIND HAS ARRIVED
Special Representative confers with
President Wilson and Secretary
State Bryan

Washington, April 13-Upon wheth
er the commander OF the IIuerta fore
es at Tampico salutes the American
flag in apology for the arrest of Amer
lean marines last Thursday. depends
immediate developments in the Mexi-
can situation.
President Wilson declared unoffi-
cially today that he expected the fed
eral commander at Tamplco to fire a
salu to the Stars and Stripes. as de-
manded by Rear Admiral Mayo, and
he spoke with confidence that impli-
ID insistenoe. The navy department
was still unadyised tonight as to
whether the salute had been fred. II
Is understood that instructions have
been sent TO Charge dAffalre
o Shaghnessy to represent TO the
Huerta government the feeling of the
administration here over the affront
but there has been on announcement
On the subject.
The presence In Washington of
John Lind, President Wilson's person
Il representative in Mexico for the
asst eight months, gave the Washing
on government an adviser with spec
al knowledge of the military situa-
ION in Tampico. Mr.. Lind reached
ere from Vera Cruz aboard the pres
Dental yacht Mayhower early today.
md spent several hours with Secre-
,ary Bryan. Tomorrow he win see
resident Wilson. accompanied by
secretary Bryan for an hour just be-
ore the cabinet meeting Au.horia-
lively. it is stated that Mr.. Lind's re-
lorts on the general situation were
o comprehensive and complete that
he really did not have to come to
Washington to supplement them.
Mr.. Lind himself was uncommuni-
;ative, saying that he merely had
sought a vacation and was at the or
iers of the government.
Direct communication between
rampico and the cable end OF Vera
Cruz, which is the only means where
~ news Of Tampico can reach Wash
ngton, can only be had by wireless.
Owing to the prevalence of storms
his communication has been exceed
lngly difficult and slow.
The Huerta government itself, II is
understood, has been Obliged TO COM
nunicate with Tampico by message
ent on steamers. II it becomes
necessary for General Huerta to send
Instructions TO the federal command
er at Tampico in a very limited
time he might have to use the radio
outfits Of the American battleships,
even in dealing with a subject so del.
icate as the demand for salute.
Administration officials are hoping
that the salute will be fired and the
incident closed. Their optimism is
such that Secretary Bryan, who has
been in i'll health Is planning to go
tomorrow to Miami, for a rest. while
President Wilson will leave here
again Thursday night for White Sui
phuf Springs, w. Va, to bring Mrs.
Wilson back to Washington.

Mix a scant pint of -four that has been
sifted with two rounding teaspoonfuls
of baking powder. making paste that
is soft. Stand the bowl containing 1t
on the ice until 1t is very cold and then
roll 1t out and fry before 1t loses its
shape. The idea is to make the paste
a little softer than can be rolled before
1t is stiff with cold and to use as little
-four as possible. The doughnuts should
be turned continually while they are

rival here from Sing Sing Prison this
afternoon:
About s o'clock on Sunday night
Rosenberg asked me TO save Frank,
saying he had nothing 10 do with the
shooting. He was not there went
over and asked Frank why he did not
tell the truth. He replied that he
knew what was going on. but was
not there when the shooting took
place.
Il advised him 20 tel the whole

would kill his brother. asked
whom he meant by they. He re-
piled that there were fifty men in
New York he could name. He said,

made the following, among other
statements. in the presence OF my.
self, the Principal Keeper. the chap

urged him TO tell the whole truth. He
hesitated and said:
al don't want to make any state
ment for the public. do not fear
for myself, but do fear for you
His sister replied, Don't have
any fear for us: we will take care of
ourselves; God will protect us
His mother and sister continued
to urge him TO tell the truth. He
said:

He mentioned several raids on

story Shapiro told to Deputy Com
missioner Dougherty was true. He
said:

New York, April 14.-"Dago
Franks" confession. made within
less than two hours of his death, will
not be permitted TO interfere in any
way with preparations for the second
trial of ex-police Lieut. Charles Beck
er for the murder Of Herman Rosen-
thai, District Attorney Whitman an
nounced yesterday. But Becker's
friends are holding that the confess
sion If admitted will amount to an ex-
culpation of the ex-policeman as the
instigator of the Rosenthal murder,
and furthermore they declare that
shows the worthlessness of the testi-
mony given on the Becker trial by
Rose, Weber and Vallon, the confess
ed leaders in the conspiracy to put
Rosenthal out of the way.
On the other hand, District Alto,
ney Whitman does not consider the
confession as vital to the case, either
from the standpoint of the defense or
of the prosecution. In the confession
"Dago Frank" says that he was not
at the scene of the crime when it
was committed, and his denunciation
of WALTON as one of the three men
who fred te the gambler becomes
hearsay evidence. 1t is, therefore.
held inadmissable either in the de-
Tense of Becker or in the prosecution
of WALTON as on of the actual murder
erg.

NO TAX ON REBUILT YACHTS.

New York, April S.-If millionaires
buy yachts in other countries and have
them rebuilt in this country, they can
not be forced to pay the American tax
on foreign vessels.

Appeals in the case of the private yacht
Allita. formerly owned by J. Pierpont
Morgan, later by Henry NJ. Flagler.
and at present by the Investors and
Traders Realty Company. who obtained
1t from Flagler on a land deal.
The tax is 81 per gross ton against
foreign-built ships.
