blood squirting from his mouth, Mr.
Polk was taken into an antechamber
In the city hall and afterwards to the
New York hospital, where 1t was said
that the wound would not prove
fatal
Mohoney shot at the mayor, he de-
clared in the course of a disjointed
statement, because he felt aggrieved
at the city executives "extravagant

incensed at being turned back from
the door of the mayors room in the
city hall on two occasions this week
when he came to apply for munich

Mahoney fired only one shot at the
mayor and his party. Before he could
fire second, he was overpowered by
Detective George Neun, who in the
capacity Of chauffeur was adjusting
robes about the men in the automo-
bile, and the revolver was wrenched
out of Mahoney's hand. The mayor
sat in the middle OF the back seat

latter was seated.
To bystanders the sound of the re-
yolver shot and the sight of the aged
man who did the shooting. sprawled
upon the pavement as he was borne
down by the onslaught of Detective
Neun, seemed almost simultaneous.
The prisoner was taken to police
headquarters, where he underwent a
searching examination before Police

led out of the trafic police station
into the ambulance that brought him
to police headquarters the crowd
lunged toward him, menacing and
loud-voiced, but was driven back by
the police.

honey appeared to be agitated most
by the late issue of city bonds and
the attempt to get Colonel George w.

that he was born in Ireland, had
worked in Pittsburg and New Or

The most disgusting dose in the world
can be made quite bearable If you first
eat strong peppermint and then hold,
your nose while you drain the glass.r
containing the medicine. The pepper
mint dulls the sense of taste, and the
nose holding stops you from getting,

nose eat biscuit. which will remove
any drops that may cling to your lips
and so put an end to the whole thing.

A Sewing Hint.

You need not stoop for hours when,
sewing hem or seam. Sit in a low
chair or on a stool. Pin one end of the
seam to something high, such as the
head of the sofa. Then you will be,
able to keep your work tight and travel
down it by means Of moving your
chair a little. You will hold it as IL it
were in frame, and there will be no
more OF that tedious crouching work

further that his resignation has been
in the hands of Sir Lionel Garden,
the British minister, since last Friday
and that the minister is holding 1t as
a guaranty that the agreements of the
Mexican mediators at Niagara Falls
will be carried out.
The official notification to Admiral
Badger about the lifting of the block
ade amazed the Vera Cruzans, who
looked to see Huerta use the incident
to compel American Intervention and
thus defeat all the immediate pur'
poses of the rebels.
1t is the opinion here without Of
fetal confirmation that Huerta has
taken this action at the request of the
Mexican mediators at Niagara Falls
and perhaps on the advice of the for
eign diplomats at Mexico City.
General Funston has determined to
check the smuggling of arms and am
munition into Vera Cruz. A squad OF
soldiers made a raid on two business
houses, where 200 revolvers and some
ammunition we're found. All this they
promptly confiscated while the pro-
prietors were put under arrest. Mex
leans who are satisfied with the pres
ent administration told the officers.

Huerta Took Hint.

War Banquet formally announced
that the order for the blockading Of
Tampico has been countermanded
Notification to that effect has been
sent to the Mexican warships now
proceeding to that point.
Without saying so officially it was
intimated that President Huerta was
guided in his action by word received
from Niagara Falls. They first cabled
that 1t would end the A. b. C. media
tion plans and later came the cable
dispatch from the Spanish minister at
Washington that the United States
would not permit the blockade.

General Huerta Countermands Orders
to Blockade Tampico When He
Hears From Niagara Falls Mediators.

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 9.-Ths
three mediators have in their posses
sion a new and complete plan for the
settlement of the Mexican situation
which vas submitted to them by the
delegates of the United States.
This plan they have been carefully
perusing and it will probably occupy
almost all of their time today.
This new plan is a comprehensive
review OF all the vital points in the
Mexican situation. Nothing definite
has been given out regarding the new
note, but it was learned that the plan
contains a compromise offer through
which it is expected to bring Genera
Carranza into the conference.
Justice Lamar formally announced
that the Tampico incident had beer
satisfactorily settled. Shortly there
after the Mexican delegates issued "a
formal statement to the same effect.
In the latter note General Huerta' S
representatives explained that they
had made a formal protest to the
mediators after the sailing from New
York of the Antilla for Tampico. They
declare that the delay in the trans
mission of their cable messages to the
Mexican government alone was re-
sponsible for the misunderstanding.
Justice Lamar said of the confer.
ence with the mediators:
"The mediators have heretofore
submitted to us complete plan and
we have now submitted to them our
plan.
"Our counter proposition contains
not only the suggestions which we
make and upon which there has been
neither agreement nor disagreement
to the plan, but also the points upon
which we had already agreed. Some
Of the points suggested may have al
ready been discussed"

Rebels Again Take Shot.

In a carefully worded statement by
r. V. Pesquira, diplomatic agent In
Ell Paso, Tex, of the Constitutional
lists, the attitude of the rebels in re-
gard to mediation is outlined. Pes
quira says:
Mexico is entitled to clean up its
own backyard without undue interfer-
ence and without any infringement
upon its sovereignty by outsiders. The
internal affairs of Mexico should be
dealt with by impartial Mexicans who
have the welfare of their country at
heart and not by persons who have
by their past records shown that they
hold their selfish interests above the
interests of Mexico or by foreigners
who cannot possibly fully understand
the needs of our people"

Forty.one Republicans voted for the

because of their opposition to the labor
