Was Active Last Year.
The board increased the number of
convictions last year over the year be-
fore, something like 400 per cent. The
license sales were increased over 80
per cent, and a great deal Of activity
IN law enforcement has been report
ed.
An interesting fact developed il dis
cussion. The expenses of the game
boards, the wardens and others inter
ested in the protection and the propa-
cation of game, Is borne entirely by the
shooters. The man who does not hunt
does not pay a cent. The resident who
hunts exclusively on his own land pays
nothing for game law enforcement
The shooters themselves support the
law enforcement with the 81 they pay
for the license, and seem we'll satisfied
with the proposition and do not think
those, who are in no way taxed fol
the enforcement of the game laws
should criticize very strongly.
Another matter brought out was tina
the shooters provide funds for enforc-
ing the game laws, paying the salaries
the rewards, and the expense Of the
prosecutions and the fines imposed &c
to the state school fund and help tc
educate the children of the state.

Few Shout Down With Huerta and 'Vva Carranza but Pt Promptly Intervene Former Dictator Congratuates His
 Successor, Francisco Carbajal
United States Will Not Rec. E
 0gnize New Head of Re- f E public Federal EnvOys
 to Arrange With Reb- els for Peaceful En- try Into Capital.

Mexico City, July 16.-The change in government whereby General Vic- toriano Huerta turned over the pro- visional presidency to Francisco Car bajal has been calmly received by the populace Besides the demon ,\skration made in honor of President Carbajal when he was leaving the chamber of deputies building after taking the oath, no other outbursts of importance have occurred. There were a few shouts in the streets of Down with Huerta," and Viva Car ranza,'' but the police promptly inter- vened.
 % General Huerta who remained in Nhe capital some hours after his res ignation, is in flight, probably on his way to Puerto Mexico to join his fam fly and friends who left for that port a day earlier. General Aurelio Blan- quet, his minister of war and strong adherent, went with Huerta when he left the city late last night. as did several other of his close friends. ' Huerta Congratulates Carbajal.
 Before leaving General Huerta went to the national palace where he con- graduated Carbajal who replied that he would do all in his power for the country's benefit. Later President 2 Carbaja1 conferred with the sub-sec- retaries of the different departments, %all the members of the Huerta cabinet having resigned. A new cabinet, it is expected will be named during to- day. The diplomatic corps has arr ranged to make a formal call on the new president on Friday.
 A significant incident in connection 4 with the change of government was the announcement that special com mittee had left the capital last night for Celaya to arrange with the con- , stitutionalist leaders for peaceful entry into the capital. General Huerta's resignation was sent to con-

FOUND STARVING, SAYS HE WILL END LIFE WITH ROPE
Unknown Insane Man, Con- fined at Town Home, Is
 a Mystery.

Charity department officials are anxious to locate relatives of a man twenty-one vars old who is insane at the town home and who gives his name as Frank Krotofsky, or Choso- ko. He is in violent mood and threatens to commit suicide by hang ing. On this account he is confined to a separate room and all articles with which he might end his life have been removed.
 Investigator Connolly of the charity department dropped into the office of the New Britain Charity Or ganization on West Main street Mon- day evening and found Krotofslxy there At that time Krotofsky showed signs of being only mildly insane. He said he was out of work and was starving, and he demonstrated that this was a fact by eating ravenously He said he had been in this country three months. but as he spoke Eng fish f1uent1y not much credence was give this statement Since being taken to the town home he has said that he has been in the United States for three years and once worked at the Stanley Works. An investigation at that plant has failed to identify him.
 Krotofsky has made several state ments regarding who he is, but all have been learned to be without foundation. He said he had a brother who formerly worked for Solomon Shurberg, but the authorities cannot find him. He also said he has $50 in d bank and that the handbook is in the possession of his brother. His statements are irrational and his con- dition appears to be growing worse. His suicide threats have alarmed the officials at the town home and every precaution is being taken to prevent him from ending his life.
 Superintendent A. J. Hart of the charity department would be pleased to receive any information which would lead to the Identification of the unknown

Hartford, July 16.-The plant of the Pope Manufacturing company in this city will close permanently on August 20, according to information siven by Receiver George Pope to Judge Marcus H. Holcomb in the su- perior court today. The statement was made at a hearing on :. nlot-or for an order to sell the personal prop erty of the company in Connecticut. The receiver told the court t!,at ir. his opinion more money could be se cured if the property was s6.ld in sm all lots to purchasers who desired s.me certain part of it.

 Following the acceptance of the res ignation, Francisco Carbajal was ap- pointed provisional president and he took the oath of office at the joint ses- sion of the senators and deputies two hours later. & A feature of the discussion in the chamber while the resignation of Gen. eral Huerta was pending was bitter attack on Americans and American politics by Deputy Musquiz Bfanco.

WILSON KEEPS UP
 FIGHT FOR JONES
White House Officials Deny That His Nomination Might Be Withdrawn
 from Senate.

Washington, July 16.-There was no let-up today in President Wilson's fight for the confirmation of Thomas D. Jones of Chicago for the federal reserve board. Limitations that the nomination might be withdrawn from the senate were vigorously denied by White House officials. Opponents of the confirmation were confident they could beat it; the administration still was hopeful of victory though by a slender majority.
 A letter endorsing MT. Jones, signed by twenty-two large busineHs con- cerns in Chicago, was made public today at the White House.
 Failure of the senate to confirm Thomas D. Jones and Paul M. War burg as members of the federal re- serve board within the next week may lead to complications which win seriously interfere with the final prep srations for launching the new bank ing system. The currency act speaks of the reserve board as a whole and bestows no powers on different indi- viduals on that board.
 The question has been raised whether the three members of the board confirmed by the senate have authority to go ahead with the work of setting the bank machinery in mo- tion or whether they must wait for the confirmation of the other two members. The question will become of pressing importance early next week. By that time it is expected tna, the election of directors of classes A and B of the federal reserve banks will have been made and the next step will be the election by the reserve board of directors of class c and the actual operating of these twelve institutions for business. Although no settlement of the ques- tion has been reached it is believed that the department will take the view that it is better to go ahead with the five members han to post pone the meeting of the reserve banks.

Americans Will Return.

Vera Cruz, July 16.-With the resig- nation of General Huerta from the provisional presidency there is every evidence among American. and other foreign refugees here of an immediate movement to return to the capital and points in the interior where aban- doned interests are awaiting attention.
 Many Americans who came to Vera Cruz during the general exodus and refused to proceed further pending some adjustment of the affairs of Mexico have expressed their intention of returning and many are making actual preparations to leave at once for their former homes. That the re- moval of General Huerta means per- nianent peace to Mexico is doubted in some quarters but it is generally be- lieved there will be at least period of relief from the menace of actual revolution.
 Leave for Interior.
 There has been during the last few days noticeable growth in the num- Der of English, Germans and better class of Mexicans leaving ove1. the gap toward the interior. Many of these are owners or managers of haciendas and mining properties who are going back hoping to be able to resume business or to repair damage to property occasioned by abandon nlent weeks ago. They will doubtless find themselves handicapped by the crippled state of commerce through Mexican gulf ports although there is still one German line of steamers ply ing regularly and bringing quantities of supplies for the interior which are entering through Puerto Mexico. There is also one American line whose steamers make the ports irregularIy.
 Ravages of the revolution will be removed by the probable resumption of oil shipments from the Tampico district and the consequent re-esta b. lishment of freight service, which has been practically abandoned for months because of the lack of fuel oil
 Freight Traffic Blocked.
 Since the American occupation very little freight has arrived here and most of that consigned to interior points is still in the customs ware houses.

MUCH DEPENDS ON
 DIRECTORS ACTION
New Haven Railroad Board Meeting in New York
 Today.

New Ork, July lO.-Ine threat ened suit under the Sherman law, the report of the interstate commerce Massachusetts, legislature permitting the sale of it's Boston and Maine stock with the provision that each stock certificate bear stipulation that the purchaser agree to sell it to the state of Massachusetts at any time, are the chief questions up for consideration today at the meeting of the board of directors of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad. Upon the action of the board rests, in all probability, the attitude of the de- partment of justice with reference to the filing of dissolution suit, the papers for which have been held in abeyance for several weeks by an agreement providing for a partial dis integration of the New Haven sys- tenn including the sale of the Boston and Maine stock control. On June 25 the board of directors adopted resolu- tions and issued a statement to the stockholders in which 1t was declared that it would be better to let the Sherman law prosecution proceed rather than submit to the terms of the Massachusetts law, which 1t was declared would make the Boston and Maine stock unstable on a fair basis.
 Attorney General McReynolds took the ground that objection to the Massachusetts law was not sufficient basis for the refusal of the New Haven to carry out it's agreement for a partial dissolution and intimated that he would file suit under the Sherman law if the directors persist ed in the stand they had taken. He gave the board until today, it is stat- ed, to file with the department ot justice a report showing that all steps had been taken to carry out the terms of the agreement, including provisions for the naming of trustees for the sale of the Boston and Maine stock. A statement bearing on the matters contained in the report of the 1n- terstate commerce commission also is expected today over the signature of James H. Hustis, president of the New Haven, who will probably pre- side at the meeting in the absence of Chairman Howard Elliott, now on vacation.
 No statement as to the plans of the company was forthcoming from its officers in this city previous to the meeting of the board which will be held late today.
 Prior to the meeting of the direct ors, which was set for 1.30 o'clock, reports as to the anticipated resigna- tion of William Rockefeller from the board were dispelled by announce ment from MT. Rockefeller that he intended not only to take part in to- days meeting, but would continue to serve as director. The effect of the announcement was to discredit a similar report that John l.. Billiard also was on the point of rendering his resignation.
 The question of a decided reduc- tion in the number of directors was among those to be discussed today. A recommendation to this effect was proposed by Lewis Cass Ledyard when he appeared before the interstate commerce commission.

MOVING PICTURES STOLEN.
Peculiar Theft Takes Place at Fox's
 Theater Box once.

One of the most peculiar cases of theft that has ever been reported to the police in this city occurred this morning when the manager. of Fox's theater complained that three reels of motion picture films had been stolen from the box office.
 What anyone could want with three reels of motion pictures Is more than the police can understand, but the management claims that the "movies'' have been moved away by foreign hands.
