SUCCESSOR TO
GEN. CARRANZA
STILL UNCHOSEN
Convention Adjourns Without
Action on First Chiefs Pro-
posed Resignation.

WASHINGTON, Oct 15.-Adjourn-
ment of the Mexican convention at
Aguas Calientes last night, without
acting upon the proposed resignation
Of General Carranza as first chief,
pending the arrival of additional
delegates representing Zapata, was
announced today in official dispatches
to the state department from Con-
sular Agents Carothers and Kanova
October 20 was tentatively agreed
upon as the date for reconvening the
convention.
In secret session yesterday the con-
vention agreed that its authority in
Mexico should be declared supreme
upon the arrival of the Zapatistas
The reports indicated that Carranza's S
resignation was not actually pre-
sented and would not be until the
convention reconvened.
Both Carothers and Kanova re-
ported that harmony reigned at the
close of the session.
Many Heated Debates.
Prior to the decision to defer final
action regarding Carranza, however.
there were many heated debates
which threatened to disrupt the con-
vention. The dispute was started by
a resolution introduced by Colonel
Eduardo Hay. providing that the con-
vention be declared supreme as 1t
stood
Villa delegates, according to the Of
fetal report, opposed this, urging that
Zapata should be fully represented at
the convention until any final action
was taken They threatened to leave
unless this course was followed.
Colonel Hay made speech, II was
said, in which he declared that the
leaders represented at the convention
should combine to put down any re-
bellion against the government final
ly set up by the convention. General
Obregon and General Angeles made
speeches counseling harmony.
Finally Colonel Hay withdrew his
resolution and introduced another
providing for the sending of an ur-
gent invitation to Zapata to send
delegates and the postponement of
action on the resignation of General
Carranza. In secret session it was
decided to declare the convention SOW
ereign, and this fact later was an
nounced in open session.
Administration leaders we're of the
opinion that the outcome of the con-
vention made it probable that all fac
tions in Mexico would be able to come
to an agreement, which would in
clude the suppression of minor dis
ccrdant elements

Freeholder Richard F. Malta ap-
Trades Council last night to explain
how he had became involved in
trouble with the trades board over the
letting of contract for a house in
Crane street. Mr.. Malta. who is a
candidate for reelection on the Re-
publican ticket. admitted that he had
made a mistake in letting the contract
to non-union builder. He said that
he was willing to make any repara-
ton possible
After the speech, which was fire.
quently interrupted by questions, the
council refused to rescind a resolution
in which it had declared that Mr..
Malta is unfair to union labor.

SEVEN AUSTRIAN
WARSH|PS FIRED
IN DOCK BY SPIES
Dreadnought, Just Ready for
Launching, and Six Torpedo
Boats Damaged in Trieste.
BY the United Press.

TRIESTE, via Havre. Oct. ia
new Austrian dreadnought just com
pleted, whose launching was sched-
uled for this afternoon at the gov
ernment shipbuilding yard, at Mon
falcone Bel Trieste, mysteriously
caught fire earlys today and was
damaged by the flames. Six new
torpedo boats were also found afiame,
and several were badly damaged be-
fore the fire was extinguished.
Fourteen hundred employees were
just starting the final days work on
the vessel, when the fire was dis
covered In several places on the
scaffolding and in the interior of the
hull. The rapidity with which the
flames spread gave rise to the re-
port here that the incendiaries had
covered the vessels timbers with oil.
The entire shipyard was under
military patrol today. The govern
ment is alarmed at the coup un-
doubtedly executed by spies.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.--The text OF
the correspondence which passed re-
Gently between General SHUTS, min
lister of defense OF the Union of South
Africa. and ex-General Beyers rele-
tive to the latter's resignation as
commandment general of the defense
forces, has been received here. 1t
throws few sidelights on the re-
bellion which has just been started
In the Union.
In letter following his letter OF
resignation, General Beyers expressed
surprise that the Parliament had
confirmed the governments resolu-
tlon to conquer German Southwest
Africa without any provocation
toward the Union from the Ger
mans" He expressed the belief that
the great majority of the Dutch
speaking people disapproved of the
action.
General Beyers said also the fact
that three ministers of the British
cabinet had resigned showed that
even in England there was strong
minority who could not be convinced
of the Righteousness of war against
Germany. 1T was said that war was
being waged against the barbarity
of the Germans. He said he had
forgiven but not forgotten all the
barbarities perpetrated during the
South African war. With very few
exceptions all farms-not to mention
many towns--were SO many LOU
vains."
Cable dispatches outlining the
pledge of Premier Botha that the
Union would remain loyal to Great
Britain have been published. Details
of q speech which he delivered in
Cape Town September 28 have just
been received In New York.
AS part of the British empire. Gen.
eral Botha said, South Africa also

the war. Neutrality for South Africa
he considered an utter lmpossibility.
If German warship came to Dur
ban and imposed a levy of five million
II would help very little to say South
Africa was neutral.
General Botha detailed his agree
ment with the imperial government
regarding the withdrawal of the inn
perial troops and the expedition to
German Southwest Africa. In ex-
horting South Africans to support
the government he said he had in
formation regarding the German am
bitions concerning South Africa
which would make their hair stand
on end. The fact of the matter was,
General Botha declared, that the
kaiser wanted to go down to pos
terity as a second Napoleon. Incl
dentally he wanted q place to which
to send Germany's surplus popuIa-
ton, and South Africa appealed to
him as suitable place. German
agents with their sedltious talk were
already doing a great deal of harm
In South Africa.
When the war broke out there
could be only one answer to the inn
peria1 governments request that the
union should take certain positions
In German Southwest Africa. Had
he refused that request he would
have been bound to resign. That
would have been the easiest course
but would 1t have been I'M the inter
ests of South Africa?
Referring to the military situation
in German Southwest Africa, Cen
eral Botha maintained that the Ger
mans first violated union territory,
but whether they did or not was be-
side the point The point was South
Africa was at war and must do it's
duty. General Botha sharply rebuked
those who mixed up soldering and
politics, and reminded the gathering
that the law provided how officers
who did not obey orders were to be
dealt with.

ASK REDUCTION
IN WATER RATES

Edward w. Bechtoldt and DR..
e. o. Cyphers, of the Belleyille
Town Council, and Henry w. Un-
derwood, auditor of accounts in
Belleville, appeared before the
Board of Works today to ask for
reduction in water rates. At
present Belleville is charged $11, 1886
for the mains and is paying four per
cent. interest on the debt to the city
of Newark, and in addition pays $50
per 100000 gallons for the water
used in that city.
They asked that the debt for the
mains be cancelled and the rate re-
duced to $50 per 100000 gallons.
Engineer Morris r. Sherrerd told
the Board of Works members that the
charge for the mains should not be
cancelled and the entire request was
taken under advlsement.

Government Officials Say Re-

PANAMA. Oct 1b.--A serious land
slide in the Culehra cut at a late
hour last night interrupted complete
ly all traffic through the Panama
canal. Several ships in the canal have
been unable to complete their pas
sage.
The official investigation disclosed
that the west side of the canal had
not been affected, as previously re-
ported. There was no slide at Con-
tractors Hill. The trouble occurred
on the east side of the canal north of
Gold Hill. A large mass of trap rock,
mixed with loose earth. sloughed into
the channel. There was no disturb
ance at Cucaracha.
Colonel Goethals said today that he
was unable to say when the channel
again would be navigable, but he
hoped within few days. An accu-
rate survey is being made to deter
mine the extent of the dredging nee
essary. The debris now virtually
fills the channel to the west bank,
and the bottom of the channel also
is being forced mp by the weight
along the east bank.
The slide began al late hour yes
terday afternoon and became serious
during the night, when the main
movement was observed.
Four vessels at Cristobal and two
at Balboa have been delayed awaiting
the opening of a new channel All
the available dredges already have
been put to work TO clear out the
waterway
WASHINGTON, Oct. t5.--News of
the landslide into Culebra cut caused
no alarm at the Isthmian Canal Com
mission offices. While regretting the
temporary closure of the canal, the
officials say this slide will have its
Conversations from an engineering
point of view, because ii will hasten
the final subsistence of the mobile
material in the cut, thereby insuring
the permanence of the waterway.
No official report of the slide had
reached the commission today II
| was recalled, however, that in al
most every reference to the Culebra
cut operations. Colonel Goethals haC
pointed out that the earth had moi
/ reached a state of equilibrium, ant
! that probably 1t would be necessary
to continue dredging operations there
for many months after the water
way was opened.
It was hoped that these earth move
ments would not be sufficiently ex-
tensive to Interfere with the naviga-
tion OF the canal though the chan
mel at some points In the cut, notably
at Gold Hill where the earth reached
its greatest height on the isthmus
would necessarily be considerably re-
duced in width for q while. How
ever. the rainy season which is sup
posed to have loosened the earth
doubtless hastened its movement In

quently assumed proportions beyond
