FLAG THAT TRIPPED
ASSASSIN SHOWN
Booths Foot Caught In II as He
Leaped from Lincoln Box
and Broke Ankle.
From The Tribune Bur.,u.l

Washington, April 14.-Faded with
age, a silk American flag hangs in the
main corridor Of the Treasury Depart
ment. Fifty years ago tonight II was
draped on the Lincoln box in Ford's
Theatre, in Tenth Street. John Wilkes
Booth tripped over II and broke his
ankle as he fled after shooting the
President.
The flag had been used a few days
before as a decoration at the eelebra-
ton of the fall Of Richmond and the
surrender Of Lee. II was thought ap-
propriate that it should designate the
proscenium box occupied by Lincoln,
and il was fastened across the rail just
above the stage.
Booth had secretly made his way ia
the rear Of the Presidents chair. He
fired the fatal shot and then leaped
from the rail Of the box to the stage
As he jumped his spur caught in the
flag, and he landed on the stage with
a broken ankle.
Then began the flight through Prince
George and Charles counties, Md. ia
Virginia, with the patrols OF Union
soldiers at the heels of Booth and his
co-conspirator, David Herold. to the
barnyard where Herold surrendered
and Booth, fighting to the last. was
mortally wounded by Sergeant Boston
Corbett.
The broken bone greatly delayed IN,
fugitive. In the barn where he had
sought refuge he was hobbling about
with an improvised crutch. His pur'
suers believed that had Booth not met

tragica began, and ended in the down
fall and death of Madero, and Huerta
took over the reins of government IN
his rough, masterful hands.
"Constitucionalista" Born.
Carranza saw his chance. Blinded by
ambition and jealousy of Huerta. he
took the plunge, and in a telegram full
of canting hypocrisy, which hlled the
breast of every honest Mexican with
disgust, he refused to recognize the
"usurpation" of Huerta. and began the
movement which has since been known
as "Constituconalista" (shade of the
sacred nameD.

soul who hates the dull mOnotony OF

difficulty in gathering about MIN IN the
north the refuse of society, and the

President Wilson, doubtless blinded
by the glamour of the word "consutu-
tionaist," took Carranza 10 his breast

sympathizer and friend and ;he Mex

NEWL YWEDS WORRIED
Licenses Issued at Haverstraw
Said To Be Illegal.

Haverstraw, the state examiners who
have been digging into its town &C
counts discovered yesterday, has no
town clerk. Since "Bill" Cleary quit
the Office on Juy % when he shot his
son-in-law, Eugene Newman dead there,
Ambrose Cleary, his bro her, has been
acting illegally in his place. The an
nouncement began to worry newly
married couples in the village yester-
day.
Members of the Haverstraw Tax
payers Association were informed yes
terday that Examiners Calhoun and
Sachs found that Ambrose Cleary never
properly qualified and did not file
bond. So Haverstraw Is now without
town clerk and any couples who got a
marriage license there since the day OF
the murder, it is commended, are not
legally married.
Information has also reached the
Taxpayers Association that Deputy
State Controller Warren Lee, formerly
an Assistant District Attorney in
Brooklyn, has declared he was going
to see to the prescott IN Of William
V. Cleary for alleged Irregularities in
his town accounts.

Ry JOHN +. BARRY.

Since my arrival in the United States
a few days ago, swhat has most I'M
pressed me is the extraordinary lgno-
rance prevailing in regard to conditions
in Mexico and the general apathy or,
rather, entire lack of interest-of the
American press and people in regard
to what is bound 20 become, IN the
course of a very few weeks, the most
vital problem which will confront the
United States.
This is borne out in striking man
ner by the recent publication OF
Vera Cruz dispatch, giving an outline
of an interview with General Csrranza.
That Carranzs had the etfrontery TO
make such a ridiculous statement that
peace will be in sight In Mexico IN
another three months is not surprls-
ing, however. when we consider some
of his other statements.
Calls Carranzs a BLUM.
Csrranza is perhaps the greatest
bluff" in the Mexican revolution. Since
the day he took up arms and called his
movement "Constitucionalista" IN or
der to win the sympathy Of the Ameri-
can President and people, every for
eigner in Mexico knew why he revolted
and how much constitutionallsm there
was in his subsequent actions down 10
to-day, when he issues statements that
he will restore peace" or will give
guarantees TO all foreigners who will
move from the unsettled parts Of the
country to the regions under MS CON
troll"
When Madero WAS still in power
Carranza was Governor Of the State OF
Nuevo Leon. Large sums Of money
were sent to him 10y the President with
which to form a state militia for the
purpose of supporting the Maderista
cause in the troubled times which Ma
dero saw were ahead Of him.
Don Venustiano put the money he
received in his pocket, and no state
militia was organized. diplomatic re-
lations" between the President and the
state Governor were suspended, and
the Governor hastily set about the for

OF disposing of their enemies, but they
have done il in a quiet, underhanded
manner. There is no fundamental diff
ference between Carranza and Huerta
in their methods, but there is vast
difference between the men.
Huerta was a MAN-and it requires
nerve to be a Mexican President. Car
rama is a weakling and coward. who
has remained all through the revolu-
ton in the safest place he could find,
far from the din of battle. His own
men despise him, his orders are obeyed
or not as il suits the within or interest
of his chiefs.
No better illustration OF the respect
and enthusiasm which his men have
for him can be had than the eXtraordi-
nary manner in which the Carranzista
cause has crumbled since the fall OF
Huerta-who was driven from power
solely BY the active opposition OF Presi-
dent Wilson. which eliminated in the
seizure of the port OF Vera Cruz last
April.
Carranza's promises" Ridiculous.
Taking it that Obregon and his men
are loyal, CarranZa controls less than
one-sevcnth Of the republic This being
the case. II is obviously ridiculous for
Carranza to tell the American press
that in three months the danger will
be over"
Carranza says in his interview: I'm
tervention means years of warfare.

dominated by others" Ask any man

Of this. and he will tell you Of he is
