THE extent to which the tuberculosis

DEFENDS THE CIGARETTE.

New York. May 1S-In a letter to
Thomas A. Edison, the inventor, the
American Tobacco Company today re-
taliated to attacks made by Edison and
Henry Ford, the automobile manufac-
turer, against the use of cigarettes. Both
Ford and Edison have prohibited the use
of cigarettes by work-:en in their en-
ploy.
Pointing out that scientific facts are
all in favor of the cigarette" the to-
bacco company takes Ldison and Ford to
task for their attacks. which the letter
asserts are wholly unjustifed. The letter
states in part:
"If cigarette smoking is to be treated
fairly, you must admit that the subject
is one that can be discussed only as a
matter of personal taste. You may OF
may not like cigarettes. That is. of
course, the right of any man. But 1t is
hardly wise to use ones personal likes
and dislikes as a basis for declaring
that several million men are feeble
minded"

HUERTA WOULD QUIT,
REPORT FROM MEXICO

New York, May 1S-It was rumored
here today that Gen. Huerta had cabled
to his peace ENJOYS today authority to
present his resignation to the Argentine.
Brazil and Chile mediators under certain
conditions.
.'other than to admit that the ENJOYS
have ample power and instructions, I
cannot discuss the forthcoming confer
ence." said Senior Manuel Martinez del
Campo. the authorized spokesman for
the delegates.
One of Senor Emilio Rabasa's callers,
a man of hign standing in Mexico City,
told Of the receipt of the cable message
from President Huerta. Confirmation of
his statement was contained in this bull
letin from Washington:
Gen. Huerta has authorized the Mexi-
can mediation delegates to submit his
resignation in case such a coarse is found
necessary to a settlement in peace nego-
tiatfons. This was stated positively in
dispatches today from thoroughly
competent diplomatic source In Mexico
City, to one Of the foreign representa-
tives here, and confirms intimations
given by friends of the delegates today"
Senior Rabasa expressed the hope that
the conference would result in restoring
peace in Mexico. but he could not be
drawn into a discussion regarding the
poWtIs upOH by T1ueTtd-
Senior del Campo announced that the
envoys will leave for Canada at 6 o'clock
tomorrow evening in private car over
the New York Central
William ]. Flynn, chief OF the Secret
Service. and his assistants kept a close
guard Of the ENJOYS during the day. and
detectives were detailed by Commissioner
Woods to protect the Mexican delegates
The visitors expressed their apprecia-
ton, but made it clear that they wero
not in the least fearful of being harmed
In New York.
The ENJOYS would not discuss the dis
patches from Vera Cruz to the effect
that Huerta would surrender the Presi-
dency in exchange for loan of s49s.-
100000 by the United States. and that
before his retirement he would lease 20
the Washington government Magdalena
Bay for ninety-nine years at S,0o0.000
year. Senior del Campo smiled when he
read the dispatch, but offered no COM
ment. Other reports 10 the effect that
the wealthy land owners of Mexico were
anxious to force the retirement Of Huerta
were waved aside by the envoys.

BORN in ENGLAND, HE
SCORES TOLLS REPEAL
Senator Sutherland Calls Controversy
Question of Rights. Not
of Wisdom.
lie SUGGESTS ARBITRATION

But one speech on the tolls repeal
bill was made in the Senate yesterday
While the administration leader. Sena-
, tor Kern, will try to get vote on
Monday next on the bill. there Is appar-
emily no chance that he will be able to
get it. Senator Burton, of Ohio, is
scheduled for a speech today, while
Senators Gallinger and Root will fol-
low. Indications are that the vote will
occur late next week.
Senator Sutherland. of Utah, an op-
ponent of repeal, addressed the Senate
yesterday.
"The economic wisdom Of exempting
our ships engaged in the coastwise trade
is by no means free from doubt" said
Mr.. Sutherland. IF 1t were possible to
vote upon that question disassociated
from the graver question of our rights
under the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. l
should feel necessity of investigating
the subject more thoroughly than I have
thus far done. But as the matter is now
presented ! shall vote against the re-
peal. having my vote primarily upon
what / conceive to be the necessity OF
reasserting with emphasis the Amer
lean right under the treaty. leaving my
self free to consider the economic side
of the question whenever 1t may be de-
termined solely upon its merits.
III the IllstOIy VI IEcc SONcThhicit hO
such astounding proposition has ever be-
fore been presented to a great legisla-
tive body as this demand of the Presi-
dent that we shall reverse our action
without raising the question whether We
were right or wrong. To comply with
1t would be So utterly subversive of every
consideration of self-respect that even
those who intend to capitulate will raise
the question and make q pretense of
justifying their action upon defensible
ground before acceding to the Presidents
request"
Senator Sutherland, who is a native Of
England, took rather a vigorous anti
British attitude. ...
II had supposed that outside of England
there was very little feeling on the sub
ject," said Mr.. Sutherland. Certain 1t is
that no other country has concurred with
the English protest in any formal way.
The opinions Of Great Britain are not to
be ignored. but they are not to be obse-
quiously followed"
Senator Sutherland discussed an inter-
probation of the treaties and favored sub
mission of the controversy to arbitra-
ton.
He said the question could be safely
submitted to the consideration of a tri-
bunal composed exclusively Of English
judges. to our own Supreme Court, or to
a tribunal composed of an equal number
of American and English judges

The report OF the gardener of the

The vice regents announced that when
II becomes necessary to repave the piazza
of the east portico of the mansion, they
will be able to obtain stones which will
match the originals. For several years
the regents have been trying to learn at
what quarry the stones were obtained
for the mansion They have found a
quarry near whitehaven, England, at
which are stones identical to. IL not orig
inals of. the stones used In building the
mansion. They expect to order enough
stones to repave the piazza before the
announced closing of the quarry in a few
months.
