NEW YORK TINES OPINION.
Carries Account of Frictions in the
Cabinet Of President Wilson.

NEW YORK, April 25.-The Times
prints the following dispatch from
Washington today:
"At the moment when President
Wilson, anxious and hurried, is bend
ing every effort to avoid real war with
Mexico, persistent reports are in cir
tCulation of dissension among his adj
visers. Without attaching any par
ticular significance to the circum-
stances. The secretary of state is op-
posed to taking vigorous military
measures to meet the situation produc-
ed by the demand that Huerta salute
the Stars and Stripes. and the secre-
tary of war believes in following Gro
yer Cleveland's maxim that a condi-
ton and not theory confronts us.
''The fact stands out boldly that the
administration Mexican undertaking
has grown to the proportions of great
national crisis In the face of the crit
ment that leaves it merely question

there shall be war in formal accept.
ance of the term, between the United
States and Mexico. Differences of
opinion in the cabinet are of marked
significance.
Serious Disagreement.
nothing to lead to the belief that these
differences will bring any designations
from the cabinet, but it is evident that
a serious disagreement has come about
among president Wilson's intimate Of

Army and navy officials with their
close study of the Mexican situation
to back their judgment, insist that
landing of the United States marines
and bluejackets at Vera Cruz has de-
veloped into a big military problem
that must be handled with an iron
hand.
'Mr Garrison, secretary of war, is
supporting them. On the other side
is Mr. Bryan, secretary of state. Mr.

gin a survey of the alleys of the city

dinance pertaining to the care of al
leys rigidly enforced. People whose
manure boxes are not covered to keep
out flies and water will be notified
that they are violating the ordinance
and will be prosecuted unless the re-
uuired Improvement is made prompt
ly.
The placing of trash and garbage
in the proper kind of receptacle will
also be required.
There is one feature of the social
ed anti-fly ordinance which should be
remedied," said Mayor Robbins today.
THAT is the provision which requires
the dumping of ashes on alley road
ways so they can be collected easier
Such disposal of ashes permits them
oil tho allows kaPn-
ing them Uttered constantly, and also
providing a dangerous fire risk Live
Goals in these ash heaps might be
blown on some house and bad fire

i place ashes in metal lined recepta-
cles."

MEXICO City. April "a. (via Lon
don, April 25.)-Senor Huerta is still
in control in the Mexican capital, but
outbreaks continue.
Three Americans have been wound
ed, but SO far as can be learned none
has been killed.
Thirty-five Mexican rioters who
were arrested by rurals, have been
executed. The death sentence was
imposed upon these men by special
decree from Huerta, not so much be-
cause they showed anti-foreign hos
tility, as because they took advantage
of the present feverish state of pub
lie mind to make an anti-Huerta man
Hesitation.
Foreigners have gathered in the
concentration zone.
Seek Foreign Protection.
Some Americans have sought pro-
lection of British and French flags.
OF all the anti-American agitators
the most radical is Jorge Huerta, son
of the dictator. The younger Huerta
had just been married and he rushed
from the altar in his wedding finery,
to harangue mob.
There was a meeting of the foreign
ENJOYS at the British legation during
the morning, at which Sir Lionel Car
den presided. Steps were taken to
provide for the safety of the foreign
ers in the event that the rabble of
the city should get beyond control
So long as General Huerta lives it is
believed that the army will remain
loyal and will be able to cope with
any disorder, but should the dictator's
enemies resort to assassination, dis
order would be sure to follow.
Fear Sunday.
Sunday is viewed with dread by
foreigners remaining in the city 1t

Many of the railroad stations near

Good Work on Trail

De Smet Independent: The Hand
county authorities are entitled to
compliments for the way they are
building the Black and Yellow trail
across that county. 1t is true that
the section from Miller west to Rec
Heights needs repairs, but still it
IS a good road. From st. Lawrence
east to a point north of Vayland,
thence south about four miles, about
ten miles in all. has been graded
this fall. And when we say grad
ed" we mean it. The road is not
left in a condition that makes it
impossible and that will hold every
drop of water that falls upon it.
The grade is wide and we'll rounded
and there are no chucks of sod or
stones left on the surface. 1t is a
good job of dirt road building as
can be found anywhere. With a
little repairing west of Miller. Hand
county will nave the best section OF
the Blank and Yellow trail in tins
state.
