Thomas A. Edison, who has an ex-

Aeolian harp, was discussing the great

in astonishment. Every time, It
seemed. he could stop that finger cor
rectly within ne-thousandth of an
inch. That's what he had to do in or
der to make the right note. And I
concluded that he and his fellows were
in some way superior to all other
kinds of people in the matter of judg-
ing distances.
But know better now. After long
and careful observation, I have dis
covered the truth. Those fellows shoot
their fingers up and down with an air
of great confidence, but they never
know exactly where the fingers will
stop. Like any other human being.
they guess at 1t. Then, just as the
note is begun by the scraping of the
bow, their trained ears catch the de-
feet. and they readjust their fingers.
Consequently, although the public
doesn't know 1t. the great violin
geniuses in the world fill their work

Vergara Was Lured to
Mexican Side and Shot
By Associated Press

Washington, d. c., March 9.-Eu-
dence gathered by American Consul
Garrett and Texas authorities to prove
that Clemente Vergara, an American
citizen, was lured into Mexico from his
home in Texas and subsequently ex-
ecuted by troops of the Huerta gov
ernment, injected another serious as
pect into the Mexican situation to-day.
Senators had prepared to debate
the conditions that had arisen for the
protection of foreigners as result of
the recent execution by Mexican con-
stitutionalists at Juarez of William s.
Benton, British subject, and to-day's
news. it was pointed out, served to
emphasize that both factions in the
Southern republic had been offenders
in this respect.

denied. Captain Sanders was one of

the body could be found at desig-
mated place. The other two were
American Consul Garrett, of Nuevo
Laredo, Mexico, and Deputy Sheriff
Petty. They went to the scene osten-
sibly to secure further information on
the Vergara case, but admitted later
that they had been told that the body
had been returned. Who were their
informants was one of numerous ques-
uons each official in turn refused to
answer. They did say, however. that
neither United States or State officials
had any part in the actual trip into
Mexico. -
Employees Suspected
Later rumors said former employees
OF the Fergara ranch, chatting at the
delay In securing the body for proper
interment by the family had taken
matters into their own hands.

might have taken this method of re-
turning Vergara's body to the United

belief late last night that they did not

Mexican Leads Party
Despite the mystery as to who was
resp "nsible for the return of the
body there seemed little doubt as to
the actual facts of the recovery of the
body. There were only nine men in
the party who gathered on the river

point where Vergara was alleged to
have been seized February Is by Cap

was consigned to the waiting officials
No Permission Granted
The party had no permission from
Mexican authorities to make the trip
and secure the body and Consul Gar
rett said last night he had never re-
quested permission from the Federals
to have this done. What complica-
uons, II any, might result from the
trip into foreign territory, apparently
caused no uneasiness among Vergara s
friends, who pointed out the peaceful
character of the party.
