The Scene of the Tampico Insult.

Tampico dispatches tell of the out
RACES committed in that city by the
constitutionalists They have demanded
ransom money from all foreigners
Americans alone excepted The Spanish
residents are, as always, mulcted most
heavily. In terror of the rebel army
they are making every attempt to pay
The only exception among the foreigners
is the German consul, who curtly refused
Gen. Gonzales demand for 100000 pesos,
saying Germany will protect her sub
iects without the payment of a single
peso"
Meanwhile Tampieo is facing the hor-
rors of war. Smallpox has broken out.
Typhoid is becoming endemic. One of
the largest water mains has been wreck
ed by rebel shells and water that is'safe
to drink costs extravagantlv. The fed
eral svmpathizers who remain behind
have been treated with great iuhuman-
ity. The richer among them have been
held for ransom with the alternative of
execution if they fail TO produce the
money The poorer inhabita.Its are pill
laged outright.
Tampico merely re-eehoes the stories
of rebel invasion elsewhere. But the
pathos of the situation is emphasized by
the recent withdrawal of our fleet. We
took Vera Cruz from the federals and
have established order and healthfulness
there. We abandoned Tampico to the
'constitutiOnalists" with the inevitable
results And we could take Tampico
from our rebel friends and hold it with
ont affecting the CHANCES of mediation.
Rut the administration has set its face
only against the federals.-Bo Boston Herald.

New Haven. Conn, June 2.-Conster-
nation has seized many occupants of
public office in this state, high and low,
because OF seemingly well authenticat-
ed report that the interstate commerce
commission purposes to reveal the man
ner in which the New Haven road per-
suaded the legislature to ball< the par
alleling project OF the Hartford & Con-
necticut Western railroad Ii years ago
1t is said the New Haven spent nearly
Sl00O,000 to prevent the Hartford &
Connecticut Western from closing gap
200 feet long in its line between Hart
ford and Springfield, Mass. Most of this
money, it is said, went into the pockets
of legislators and of legislative agents

bulk of the money during the bitter con-
fliet between the two railroads which
ragged in the capitol at Hartford for five
months. Opposite the name of each re-
ported recipient in the accusing record,
it is said, is the amount he is alleged to
have received.
1t is believed that the interstate com
merce commission, while it is stripped
for action on the New Ravens affairs,
will seek to lay bare this now historic
transaction, and that it surely will un-
cover the list and find corroborating cir.
cumstances that will give it a terrible

OF such an outcome that is sending shud-
ders down the spines of many SNUG and
trim men who are received and respected
everywhere and who occupy high public
and private positions with apparent pro-
priety.
OF course, no one can be prosecuted
for having been party to it inasmuch

Senate Acts on N. Y. C. Inquiry.

Washington, June BY a vote of
30 TO 90 the Senate yesterday referred
to the interstate commerce committee
the Norris resolution asking the attorney
general to state if the New York Cen
trail lines constitute combination in
violation of the Sherman antitrust law
and if he intends to proceed against it,
The effect of sending the Norris reso-
luton to the interstate commerce COM
mittee is to delay action. Senator Nor
ris objected to that course. Other SEN
ators, some of them Democratic leaders,
objected to calling upon the attorney
general to disclose his intentions in a
matter which might be the subject of
litigation.

Any breaking out or irritation on the

He informs us that bold-sulphur in

support from the radicals of both sides,
who are in the minority. The action of
the Senate is direct blow at Chief
Counsel Folk. The first Norris resolu-
ton relating to the New Haven road
was sent to a committee in the same
way, but the understanding then was
that it would be reported out and passed,
with some notifications. No such UNI

for sentiment has changed meantime,
partly through the unlimited zeal of Mr..
Folk, and the resolution may receive no
further attention this session.

APPLY SULPHUR IF SKIN BREAKS OUT
SULPHUR DRIES UP ECZEMA
USE LIKE COLD CREAM TO STOP ITCHING

and iniammatory skin affections.
While not always establishing perma-
nent cure, it never fails to subdue the
itching irritation and drive the eczema
away and it is often years later be-
fore any eruption again appears on the
skin. Those troubled should obtain at
any pharmacy an ounce of bold-sulphur
cream, which is applied to the affected
parts in the same manner as an ordi-
nary cold cream. 1t isn't unpleasant
and the prompt relief afforded partic-
ularly in itching eczema, proves very
welcome.

Neutral Zone Assured.

Washington, Feb. Establish ment of a neutral zone in which non combatants of Torreon and vicinity may find safety when Mexican fed erals and constitutionalists clash In the next great battle of the Mexican revolution, was assured today when Gen. Villa agreed to the plan.
 Gen. Huerta already had assented, with the stipulation that binding as surances that the zone would be re- spected by promise obtained from Villa. This idea originated with the state department at Washington, the result of expressions of apprehension from foreign embassies and legations here for the safety of their citizens Gen. Hugh L. Scott at Fort Bliss was charged to lay the matter before Gen. Vila. and he broached the sub- feet yesterday in a personal talk on the international border, which was followed up by a formal agreement today.
 Incidentally, it is understood Gen. Scott has been instrumental in n fluencing Gen Villa to adopt civilized methods of warfare and in advising him as to the proper method of treat ing prisoners of war and non-combat- ants The rebel reader is said to have shown himself amenable to sng' gestions
 Considering the location of Torreon in a rough and hilly country it has been found that to obtain a location of safety for non-combatonts it would be necessary to remove them some distance from the town IA location has been found at Tlahualilo about four or five miles from Torreon, and the site has been approved by mill tary experts. It is estimated that al least twenty-four hours time will be required to transfer the inhabitants to this place but from the leisurely man ner in which the campaign is devel opiag it is thought there will be am pie notice of a general engagement

KILLING REFERRED ID THE GRAND JURY
CoRONER'S JURY DID NOT BE LlEVE DILIGENCE WAS USED
 TO PREVENT ACCIDENT.
Crossing Was Not Fenced, and the Whistle Was Not Used, Testify Wit nesses, in Coroner's investigation.

That the death of Mrs. Lucy Jones, who was run over and killed by a switch engine in the yards of the Rock Island railroad Wednesday evening, was not wholly occasioned by her own negligence and that the Rock IsIand railroad was responsible in measure, was the finding of a cor oner's jury yesterday afternoon.
 The jury returned verdict that Mrs. Jones met her death by being run over and that the next grand jury should make full and complete in vestigation of the circumstances.
 It was testified that Mrs. Jones was walking along the tracks, and had a shawl over her head, but it was also testified that when the switch engine approached it did not blow the whistle nor ring the bell, though Engineer w. N. Mann states that he did ring the bell, but did not biow the whistle.
 It was also brought out that the right of way of the railroad was not fenced at this point and that had it been properly fenced, with gates, the woman would not have been tres passing on the tracks, A sort of con tributory negligence was discussed, but the jury thought it best to refer the whole matter to the next grand jury for fruther consideration.

O'Shaughnessy that Miron Is to be given a mission abroad
 Notwithstanding that Gen. Felix Diaz has sent word to his friends here that he has no intention af par ticipating in the rebellion, there are some who profess to have informa tion that he intends to join the con stitutionalists
 The agreement between Gen. Huer ta and Gen. Villa for the maintenance of neutral zone at Torreon is not as vital to foreigners as it would have been a few months ago, because in Torreon there are now not more than dozen Americans and only few more Spaniards. Gen. Huerta smiles when the pian is mentioned, as he professes to believe there will be no battle at TorFeon. He appears con. fdent his forces will check the reo- els outside the city and probably drive them back
 Gen. Velasco federal commander at Torreon, has strongly fortified the town.

For this reason Senator Cham berlain did not dwell upon that sub iect long, but offered an amendment to limit their scope.

 According to senators who heard the exchange the republican senator from New York interrupted Mir. O'Gor- man and rebuked him in strong terms. When MT.

Senator Root de clared he continues to resent MT O'Gorman's remarks despite his pro. testation.
 Senator John Sharp Williams. who also is a trustee of the Carnegie en- dowment, also resented the imputa- ton that the endowment had any sJr- reptitious motives, but he attempted to smooth the tempest by the declara- ton that Senator O'Gorman had spok- en impulsively.
 When quiet had been restored de bate on the general issues continued. Senator Poindexter spoke at length against all the treaties and in sup port of the Chamberlain amendment.
 It was agreed that no vote should be taken on account of the absence of senators who accompanied the body of the late Senator Bacon to Georgia and the subject will be resumed to- morrow.
