GETS PEEVED
OBJECTS TO APPOINTMENTS BY
GEN. cARRANZA IN NEW
MILITARY ZONE.
50 HE QUITS THE REBEL ARMY
Chihuahua City, Juarez and Torreon
Offices Taken by Villas Men
Custom House and Treasury Also
in Charge of His Men.

Ell Paso.-General Villa, through his
agents here, issued a general denial
Wednesday that there had been any
split between himself and General Car
ANA. He said that the arrest of the
Carranza officials at Juarez had been
the result Of a Misrepresentation of
orders on the part of Colonel Tomas
Ornelas, in charge of the Juarez gar
rison.
The First Report.
Eel Paso, Texas.-General Villa has
rendered his resignation to General
Carranza. To Villas message the con-
s~titutionalist commander in chief re-
piled, asking who would succeed him.
General Villa ordered all command
ers of garrisons throughout the terri
tory he controls to report at once at
Torreon.
Carranza's offices at Juarez were
confiscated by Villa supporters Tues
day. Similar c~onfiscations are anthem
tically reported to have taken place at
Chihuahua City and at Torreon, where
Villa remained. This places the en-
tire northern part of Mexico in the
power of Villas military leaders.
The customs house and the treasury
department at Juarez has been con
fiscated by Villas officers.
Although Villas persistent military
| successes had occasioned speculation
regarding his relations with Carranza,
the matter did not receive serious con-
s%ideration until the appointment by
Carranza of General Panfilio Natera
as commander of a newly created mill.

Curious Old Sect.

There is a sect in Holland known
as the Labadists, among whose mem
bers the use of mirrors is strictly pro-
hibited. Their founder, Jean de La

minister. attracted many followers,
and now they are found only in a
few remote villages Of Friesland.

clasps and perfectly p~reternatural
neatness. are very interesting to see."

Along the road toward the ranch
buildings plodded two dusty pedes-

thickly in sweaters, the other a fet
man who rolled heavily, and paused
now and then to mop his purple face.
Both were dripping as If from an i'm
m%ersion, while the air about the latter
vibrated with heat waves. They both
stumbled as they walked, and 1t was
only by the strongest effort of will
that they propelled themselves. AS
they neared the corner Of the big, low
lying ranch-house, already rejecting
the hot glare of the morning sun, a
mans clear tenor voice came to them.

Decision Alleges That Golf Was Un-

Becker.

New York.-The conviction of For
mer Police Lieutenant Charles Becker
of the murder of the gambler, Her.
man Rosenthal, was annulled by the
courts of appeals at Albany, the high
est court in the state. He is entitled to
new trial, but it seemed probable
that he might go free without facing
a second ordeal. It was made known
that District Attorney Charles S.
Whitman believes that under the pre-
vailing opinion handed down by the
court, conviction a. second time will
be impossible.
Appeals taken by the four gunner,
"Whitey' Lewis, Lefty Louie" "Gyp
the Blood" and ''Dago Frank" con-
victed as actual murderers of Rosen-
thai, and whom Becker was accused
of having instigated to commit the
crime, were not sustained and they
will have to die in the electric chair,
probably in March, except in the
event of executive clemency.

WEST IS NAMED SENATOR
APPOINTEE ONE OF BEST KNOWN
MEN OF SOUTHERN
GEORGIA.
Has Been Prominently Identified
With Politics in the State for
Many Years.

Acknowledgement Slaton appointed
William Stanley West of Valdosta, one
of the best known, men in the state,
to fill the unexpired term of the late
Senator A. O. Bacon, whose death &C.
Cured in Washington, February IA.
Governor Slaton did not write any
formal announcement. He merely
walked out into the reception room,
saw that the newspapers were all rep
resented and spoke one word:
"West!"
In an instant the news travelled
throughout the capitol and was flashed
to all parts of the city and state.
Commenting on the appointment,
Governor Slaton said:
cit was only a moment ago that
came to a definite decision. Any time
up to five minutes ago I was free to
change my mind. I had told no one
of my intention"
When seen after the statement had
been made at the capitol that the gov
ernor had appointed him, Mr.. West
said:
Il have been in Atlanta for several
days, but have not obtruded myself
upon the governor. After the burial
of Senator Bacon my friends not only
from all parts of south Georgia, but
throughout the state, notified me that
they would present my claims to the
governor. Many of them asked me to
meet them in Atlanta for conference
on the situation and have been here
for few days with that end in view
William Stanley West, the oldest
West, is leading member of the
Lowndes county bar, with residence
and office in the city of Valdosta. He
was born in Marion county, Georgia,
August % ,1849; was educated in Mer-
Ger university, where he graduated
with the degree of bachelor of arts,
subsequently, receiving the degree of
master of arts from the same institu-
ton, completing his education when
he was 33 years of age. While stu
dent there he was honored with the
presidency of the Ciceronian Literary
society and was anniversarian of that
society in 1880.
From 1892 to 1897 he served as a
member of the lower house of the state
legislature, and in 1898-99 was a mem
Der of the state senate. In 1900 he
declined return to the lower house,
but was elected to that body in 1902
and served until 1904 In 19O5-O6 he
was again returned to the state SEN
ate without opposition, and was then
elected president of that body. In 1908
he was sent as a delegate at large
from the state of Georgia to the ma
tional Democratic convention, held at
Denver, Col
