M|LEY BILL. ADOPTED.
HOUSE PASSES PRIMARY RE.
FORM MEASURE BY SMALL
MAJORITY.
The Responsibility Of Defeating the
Movement to Purge The Primary Of
Fraud and Corruption is Now Put
Up to the Senate and Governor
BleaSc.

Columbia, Feb. 1S.-Leading in
what appeared to be forlorn hope,
the advocates of Primary Reform
legislation this morning put through
the house, by IL vote OF 57 to 81, the
Milcy bill to safeguard primary cleo
tions. Unlike the Senate Primary
Reform Bill, which the House killed
by one vote last night, the Miley
bill does not request duplicate regis
tration of voters in primary elections
but does require that voters apply in
person for registration. 1t creates
the county office Of supervisor of
prirlary registration, requires him to
attend at least two days in each town
ship and provides for review of the
books of primary registration by the
county executive committee ten days
before a primary.
The passage Of the bill was due in
q large measure to the fact that Char
lesion county was exempted from its
provisions; then too about four mem
bers Of the House, known to advocate
primary reform, were in their seats
today, who were absent last night.
Unless the Senate agrees to substi-
tute the Miley bill for the bill drawn
up by its special committee, which
the House rejected last night, there
viii be no chance OF primary reform
legislation by the General Assembly.
IL the Governor keeps his promise to
veto any primary reform act it seems
probable that the house will not be
able to master the two thirds ma
jority necessary to pass the act over
his veto. Anyhow, should the sem
ate agree to the Miley bill and pass
it, the burden OF blocking, primaSX
reform will be placed squarely on
the governor.

RETURN BANDITS TO MENICO.
Believed Probable That Castillo and
His Followers. Will Have Short
Shrifc.

Washington, Feb. 17.-Consdera :
ton has been given by officials here
TO the question of what should be done
with the bandit leader Castillo. As
the tGnrtl disaster occurred in Mex
leo, no crime can be charged against
the bandits in the United states, and
tonight it was regarded as certain that
they would be returned to Mexico.
How to accomplish this has not
been decided. United states immi-
gration authorities might dcport the
prisoners as undesirable aliens and
this probably would result in their
immediate capture 10y Gen. Villa. who
has announced his intention of exc
cutting them publicly at Juarez. \

intention is to Underwrite Mergers
Shares i'm Western Union Company
to Those WHO Have Stock in Par

New York, Feb. 16.-For the pur-
pose of underwriting Western Union
Telegraph company stock to the
amount of about $30,OOO,OOO, now
owned by the American Telephone
and Telegraph company, syndicate,
at the head Of which is Kuhn, Loeb &,
Co., have been formed, according to
announcement made tonight. Details
of the underwriting plan have not as
yet been made public, but it is un-
derstOod that it is designated 10 car
ry out the agreement reached recent
ly between the federal department of
justice and the American Telephone
and Telegraph company, providing
for the segregation Of the interests
of the Western Union and the Amer

pany. 1t is. the intention Of the syndi-
cate to underwrite the stock to pres
ent shareholders of the Western

1t is said that on October 21, 1911,
the American Telephone and Tele-
graph company owned $2O,657, 200
worth of Western Union stock Of a
total Of s90,OOO,OOO then outstanding.
Due to the fact that the stock Of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
company was voted on in block, this
one-thrd holding gave the company
control over the Western Union, it was
charged by the government The
stock in question was acquired by the
telephone company through purchase
of the Gould, Sage and Morosini hold
The American Telephone and Tele.
graph company was under investiga-
ton by the department Of Justice for
a number Of years, it being charged
zby the various Independent telephone
interests that the trunk lines OF the
combination were closed to them and
competition stifled.
The Mackay companies complained
of unfair treatment in the matter OF

QUARANTINE CAUSES SHOCK.

impression in Newberry is That
Laurens Wanted TO Avoid Carnival
Show and Not Due to Smallpox Sit
uatiOn.

Newberry, Feb. 1G.-The special in
the News and Courier this morning
from Laurens that Lau had quar-
antined against Ne ! created
some surprise here = lere are a
number of cases Q g llpox in New
berry and in the ty, as there are
all over South a. ma, but there is
no epidemic 3 e disease and all
cases in the = 'e under quarantine.
Nothing ha @ n published about it
because i = generally understood
that the Ase is scattered all over
the Sta o be exact, Health officer
Adams 81 that there are at present
fourteen cases in the city, and that
all on the edge of the city limits All
the cases are among negroes except
three. Since the 18th Of January,
1913, there have been sixty-nine cases
in the city and no deaths. The peo-
pie are being vaccinated and the trus-
tees have been rigidly enforcing the
rule as to school children and none
are admitted to public schools who
cannot give evidence Of successful
vaccination.
The general opinion here is that
Laurns wanted to keep carnival
company from that place this week
and the quarantine was put on as an
excuse to keep the shows away. The
fourteen cases now in this city are
convalescent and will be discharged
from quarantine this week.
There are a number of cases in the
county, but just to what extent the
disease prevails it is impossible to as
certain. In the township in which
Prosperity is located it was stated
some time ago that q school election
had been called off on account of the
prevalence of smallpox. The county
superintendent of education states
that about IS per cent of the school
children had been vaccinated
The sentiment here is that there
seems to be no special reason for Lau-
rens to quarantine against Newberry
as to smallpox any more than against
any other section of the State. In
fact, If quarantine is to be enforced
against communities in which the dis
ease exists Laurcns will probably be
, a community all to herself. and the
Information here is that even that
city IS not now immune from the dis
ease. The carnival which was here
has left and it is understood that it
started from here to Clinton.
Action Commended.
Laurcns, Feb. 16.-The city board
Of health today received q message
from j. Adam Hayne, of the State
department OF health, commencing
the action taken yesterday in estab-
iishing quarantine against Newber-
ry county because of the prevalence
OF smallpox in that section. DR..
Hayne assured the local board that he
would back it UP in the position taken
as it was The proper step.
At a meeting OF the board this af-
ternoon an order was authorized
making vaccination compulsory in the
city, the order going into effect at
once.

AMERICANS CAPTURE CASTILLO.
BANDIT AND SIX OF MEN TAKEN
BIZ TROOPS.
lip From Mccormick Leads to Ar
rest of PcrpctratOr of Cumbre HOr-
rOr-IIad DctOured to American
Side.

Ii IaSO, IeXaS, FEB. 17.-MaXimO
Castillo, the Mexican bandit charged
with responsibility for the Cumbre
tunnel disaster in which ten Ameri
cans and IL others lost their lives, was
captured today, 3S miles south OF Ha-
chita, n. NJ, by American troops.
The information was conveyed to-
day to Gen. Hugh l.. Scott, comman-
dant at Fort Bliss, in an official tele-
gram from Capt. White, Ninth United
States cavalry.
With the bandit were six Of his fol-
lowers, who, according to Capt.
Whites brief dispatch, surrendered
without a fight. They will be brought
here.
Castillo, to avoid q range of moun-
tains on the Mexican side, made q de-
tour which brought him into Amer
lean territory. Capt. White was on
the watch, having received informa-
ton yesterday from Walter McCor-
mick. American manager of Las Pal
Omas ranch, on the Mexican side, that
the much wanted man was in the vi
cinity.
Whether the prisoner shall be sur
'rendered to the rebels is o legal ques-
ton which remains to be settled Ii
this is done there is no doubt that
he will be executed for the Cumbre
disaster. He is not charged with any
crime on this side.
Castillo set fire to q freight train
in the Cumbre tunnel two weeks ago.
| The cars were burning when a pas
senger train crashed into it, and every
life aboard was lost. The tunnel still
is burning.
n special to The Times from Ha-
chita, y. NJ, says the capture was
made by Lieut.. Rothwell of Troop A
It containues:
THE band OF outlaws, under heavy
guard, is marching overland to Ha-
chita and should arrive about mid
night. Charles Mellow, a. prominent
rancher who knows Castillo, identi-
fed them and the latter made no at
tempt TO deny it.
Capt. White will ask that Castillo
and Capt. Emelio Garcia, a member
{ Of thc band previously captured, be
transported Immediately TO FL Paso
as the number of soldiers on duty
here is limited"
Previous reports of Castillos cap
ture, made to Gen. Villa, proved un-
true. The latter tonight expressed his
qualification at the capture. Gen.
Scott was no less jubilant.
Castillo's capture was OF peculiar in
terest to W. B. Ioxby, an American,
now in this city. Castillo and his
bandit force threatened RoXby with
death il he did not pay n ransom for
his liberty after he was captured Feb
ruary west of San Pedro, Chihuahua.
ROXby, who is manager of the Urm-
paid $1,000 to the bandits. He WAS
forced to go to the headquarters Of
Urmston ranch, several miles distant,
and write out u check for the amount.
Castillo sent a guard with him to in
sure the receipt Of the check. Then
he was forced to write q letter to the
City National bank, at I'll Paso, order
ing the payment OF the check to a
representative of Castillo. The check
has not been presented.
