VOTING MACHINES TOO
SHORT FOR CANDIDATES
DemOCracy's Turnout Forces Use of
Two Rows and Starts In
junction Talk.

RumblingS OF a possible injunction
suit and considerable dissatisfaction
was heard Friday when il was learned
that on account OF the nur>~er OF
democratic candidates for county and
township offices il would be necessary
TO use two rows. instead of one, as
usual in order 10 get all names on
the voting machines 1t was pro-
posed 10 restrain the board Of election
commissioners from having the bal
lots printed for machine use. and in
cidentally. secure a mandate, If pos
sible. requiring them TO print the old
fashioned Australian ballots instead
The claim is that dropping the
names OF a part of the candidates to
the lower row. places them at a disad-
vantage, the complaint being taken
up by prOgressives and republicans as
well as democrats where there are
contests, and a portion OF them must
drop down. The progressives and re-
publicans are complaining, because.
they say. so far as they are concerned
they could ali run on one row. if
making room for the democrats did
not prohibit.
The matter was Pretty we'll ironed
out during the forenoon. however, and
though some dissatisfaction remains.

DETROIT, Mich, May 15.-With a
force that demolished the one-stOry
plant and shook the neighborhoOd, a
retort of sulphuric acid blew up in the
works of the Mexican Crude Rubber
company at Solvay and Mackie avs,
this morning at 10 o'clock. Thirteen
workmen are known TO be dead and
Il injured. Five of the latter are be-
lieved to be in a serious condition.
The superintendent OF the plant says
over % men were in the plant and
only eleven have been accounted for
So terrific was the force of the blast
that at least one man was blown
clear out Of the building. The bodies
OF several of the victims are so badly
burned as to be unrecOgniZable.
The exact cause of the explosion is
not known.
Coroner Rothacher has started an
investigation of the accident. Just
what caused the acid 10 explode will
probably never be known. The Mex
ican Crude Rubber company manu-
featured an imitation leather made of
rubber, shellac and other materials
spread over cotton fabric The plant
was a one-story cement building. This
was practically demolished by the ex-
plosion and windows of buildings sew
eral blocks away were smashed.

VALLON'S STORY
PUNCTURED BY
TRADICT|ONS

NEW YORK. May 15.-Harry Val
lon, whose testimony is relied upon
in great measure by Dist. Atty. Whit
man To convict ex-Lieut. Charles
Becker of the murder of Herman
Rosenthal, was trapped into many
important contradictions by Atty.
MantOn. counsel for the defense, to-
day. The crosS-eXamination Of Val
lon. following his direct testimony in
which he had corroborated in most
points the stories told by Bald Jack
Rose and Bridge" Webber, was the
most satisfactory inning that the de-
fense has yet had.
NallOn on croSs-examination not
only cOntradicted testimony that ne
had given at the first trial, but he
also cOntradicted testimony that Web
Der had given on the stand yesterday.
Mrs. Herman RosenthaI viii be
called by the state as one of the wit
nesses against Becker 1t became
known today that through her testi-
mOny Dist. Atty. Whitman expects 10
prove the close business" relations
that existed between Becker and
ROsenthal and that her story will be
a corrObOration of the tale OF Bald
Jack Rose as TO the quarrel and
break between the two men.
Sam Schepps Next.
The next witness on the states list
was Sam Schepps. whose partieipa-
ton in the trial resulted in Becker's
first conviction being overrUled by
the court Of appeals Then viii come
other witnesses To corroDorate details
of the murder plot story
In the meantime Atty MantOn
counsel for the defense. is strength
ening his lines TO put Becker on the
stand and throw the whole onus Of
the ROsenthal murder upon Rose. He
has already esta blished the basis for
such defense by showing through
Roses own testimony and that OF
Weber that the bald-headed gambler
and ROsenthal were on terms OF
enmity.
Relations between the counsel in
the case are becoming more strained
daily. Justice Seabury has smother
ed many outbreaks. but Atty MantOn
shows bitter feeling against Dist
Atty. Whitman and at every session
accuses him OF coaching the witness
es. Observers Of the trial predicted
today that before il was over, there
would be a sensational clash.

HUERTA FACING
MUTINY IN ARMY
At CAPITAL CITY
By THOMAS II. COATES
staff

VERA CRUZ. May 15.-PreSident
Huerta's dictatorship is drawing TO a
stormy and tragic close. Reports re-
ceived here state that the federal
short distance from the center of the
city, have mutinied and that the reb-
els under Gen. Zapata have attacked
Huertas 5 troops at Tlalpam, only u
miles from the national palace. These
reports indicate that the dictator may
fall even before the cOnstitutionalists
bring their artillery to bear on the
capital. In this case there is likely
to be complete anarchy in Mexico
City. a condition that may result in
wholesale murder of foreigners
Persons arriving here today from
Mexico City picture terrible cOndi-
tions in the capital.
Nearly 5000 wounded soldiers have
been taken there from battlefields
where the federals were defeated by
the ConstitutiOnalists The wounded
soldiers were dumped like cattle into
freight cars with a little mOuldy
straw for a bed. They reserved no
medical attention on the way and
very little after they reached here as
surgeons are scarce and medical sup
plies at low ebb.
Food and Water Lacking.
Food was lacking as we'll as water
ing of starvation was added To the
pain of gunshot wounds Soon the
rotting straw was damp with matted
blood.
Some of the soldiers tried to bear
their pain stOically. one refugee told
OF seeing a soldier who had amputated
his own leg with dirty rusty pen
knife. Gangrene naturally followed.
The Mexican generals treated their
wounded with absolute indifference.
one general stabbed his horse in a
box car filed with wounded
Buildings were transformed into
hospitals here hut aside from afford
ing shelter they did little else for
the sick federals.
A report is current i'm the capital
that Jose LOZanO. minister of public
works. and Querido Moheno. minister
of commerce. compiled a list of Amer
lean property 10 be blown up. Gen.
Huerta is said 10 have added to it the
residences OF a number of Americans.
The plan 10 destroy the property was
foiled by Eduardo Iturbide. governor
of the federal district. who objected
So strongly that il was abandoned
