CONSPIRACY TO
INCITE REVOLUTION
Is the Charge Against Him = Former
Mexican Dictator Provides $4,000
Bail and Hearing Will Be Held
Thursday-Orozco Also Held.

Ell PASO, Texas, June 2S.-Charges of
to incite revolution against
a friendly country We're filed yesterday
against Gen. Victoriano Huerta, ex-presi-
dent of Mexico, who was placed under ar
rest at Newman, n. NJ, by federal off
ers
Similar charges were filed against Gen.
Pascual Orozco, who was arrested at the
same time Huerta was released on a
$4,000 bond. Orozso's bail was fixed at
81 800 and he also was released
After the formal charges issued on in
structions from the United States district
attorney at San Antonio had been filed,
the accused were taken before George
Oliver, United States commissioner, and
their bond approved and their hearing
fixed for Thursday, July 1. Surety was
furnished by Isaac and Frank Alderette,
May Moye and Rudolfo Cruz.
Gen Huerta was driven to the home of
his daughter, Mrs. Luis Fuentes Orozeo
was taken to the home of friends.
Gen Huerta, his son Victor and a sec
rotary were taken from an FL Paso &
Southwestern train at Newman, 10 miles
northeast Of here, at yesterday morning
by special agents of the department of
American cavalry.
Gen. Orozco and Maj. Luis Fuentes, who
had preceded the American officials to
| Newman and had their automobiles wait
| ing in the hills nearby preparatory, it was
believed, to dash into Mexico, were also
taken into custody, but Fuentes, who is a
son-inIaw of Huerta, was later released
There is every indication that the
American officials thwarted the outbreak
of revolutionary activities especially at
| Juarez, where a mutiny has long been
feared. At the hour when Huerta's train
reached Newman, bugles rang out from
the Cuartols and outposts around Juarez
| The garrison came under arms and was
| apparently awaiting some development
There was considerable excitement in The
Mexican town which later subsidized.
When Huerta was taken from the train
at Newman he stepped down between files
| of arnied American soldiers Catching
sight of the American cavarymen, the
/ former Mexican dictator made slight ex
clamation in Spanish and then, grinnns
broadly, said in hating English; aha
American soldiers to greet me- That j.
very nice, very nice. Efficient watching
waiting"
Huerta and Orozco were brought to THU
city in automobiles under guard They
were detained about an hour after arriv
ing here, and were released when bail haC
been furnished and arrangements made 70

THINKS MACHINE GUNS
WILL DISPLACE RIFLES
Germans Say the Infantry of the Flu
ture Will Be Armed with Rapid
Fire Guns.

ROTTERDAM, June 10 Correspond
ence of The Associated Press) Military
experts here think it probable the pres
ent war will see the end of the rifle as
the principal weapon of infantry.
According to German agents in Hol-
land, the German army is rapidly substi-
tuting men with machine guns in place of
rifles. Infantry so armed, and protected
by concrete works and wire entangle-
ments, can hold off forces far superior to
them in numbers The tendency is to
bring up main forces of infantry only in
emergencies.
At the beginning of the war Germany
was credited with having 10000 machine
guns. Notwithstanding the loss of the
main of these weapons, the factories have
been working day and night, and it is now
asserted that there are 100000 of them
IN use.
A German agent in Rotterdam said:
Military science develops so rapidly in
times of actual war that the weapon of
today is soon discarded and something bet
ter taken up. The greatest asset Germany
possesses is her ability to see ahead and
make today the weapon of tomorrow
with the enemy the rifle is a sort of
fetch The English are highly elated be-
cause the war has shown that their men
can shoot straighter and quicker than the
Germans. There is little cause for tri-
umph in this A large part of the time
spent in training their troops is spent in
teaching them the construction and use of
the rifle, while our men are being taught
how to handle and serve the machine gun.
''The present war will see the end of
many things, as it has seen the birth of
many things, and although the rife may
not disappear before peace is signed, its
doom as the principal arm of infantry is
sounded.
''Where is there any sound argument
against the gradual substitution of the
light machine gun for the rifle? After all,
Maxim is merely an improved automatic
rifle with water jacket. A man who
could fire a kicking gun of the period of
1915 could fire. and carry a Maxim with
less effort. Are we not told that in the
old days the concentrated fire on one. side
of an English square emptied less than a
score of French saddles at effective range?
One modern machine gun would have
wiped out the whole squadron.
| 'In modern warfare, and particularly in
trench warfare, the soldier who can fire a
hundred shots to his opponents five has
ninety-fve chances of coming out I'M
scathed The German soldier prefers the
machine gun to the rifle; it enables them
| to sit down comfortably and squirt death

PRESIDENTS PARTY LOST.
Travelled Five Hours Over Little Used
Vermont Roads.

CORNISH, n. H., June %. = .Presi-
dent Wilson and members of his fam
ly, out for an afternoon automobile
ride, became lost yesterday in the foot
hills of the Green Mountains near
Windsor, and for nearly FIVE hours were
riding through dense forests, M and
down steep inclines, part of the time in
"a driving rain. The drive took the
presidential party over roads seldom
travelled by automobiles, and the way at
times narrowed to mere cow paths and
mountain trails. Woodstock was the OBJ

dent knew the country at least as well
as any one with him. Apparently he

tlrely the cares of office he left behind
him for brief vacation. Several time.
the automobile was driven into blinf
| roadways and had to be backed in or
der to proceed on its way. In one
place the machine plowed down steer
hill in mud up to the hubs and in 9th
ers it ran beside ravines with mountain
Istreams far below. The chauffeur is :
Icareful driver, however, and at no tim,
was the party in any danger.

CITY HAS LOST
TRACK OF TRUCK
WAS TO HAVE BEEN HERE
MONTH AGO. BUT HAS NOT
YET SHOWED UP-BE DEMON
sTRATED BEFORE ACCEPTED

Although the lately purchased pow
er fire truck was to have been shipped
a month ago, nothing in the shape of
advices has yet been received here,
according to statements at the city
hall yesterday. Mayor Greenhut said
that, when the truck arrives, there
viii be a payment Of $500 due on
it, and he is not anxious that it show
up, at least for the present, although
a demonstration is in the contract
before the city is supposed to accept
it.
There is no especial hurry for the
truck to reach here, and the indica-
tons are that it will not be ready
for local service until the city bonds
are sold and the modern truck home
is erected, a contract for the same
having already been signed.
In the meantime the utmost care
is being given the horses in the fire
department. The animals always get
the best of attention, but at present
they are perhaps a little more atten-
lively looked after, for the reason
that the department does not antici-
pate needing any additional horses,
the power truck being expected to
take the place of from two to half a
dozen.
