OWNERS OF WiLHELMINA
WILL BE ONLY LOSERS
Amount of the Loss VIII He Amount
of Demurrngc ChnrEcs-British
Position Set Forth

WASHINGTON, April 14.--Apparently
the only losers by the prolonged deten-
ton OF the American food ship Wilhcl-
nina. with her cargo at Falmouth, Eng
land. will be the owners of the ship,
and the loss will be the amount of
demurrage charges.
The British government has taken
the ground that the Wilhelmina was
free to sail at any moment after she
had arrived at Falmouth, February .
last IL she cared to discharge her car
go of foodstuifs. which the captain de-
clined to do. The British action In the
case is disclosed in communication
to the American embassy in London
by Sir Edward Grey, the British For
eign Minister.
Ills Majesty's government shares the
desire of the United States government
for the immediate settlement Of the
case" says the communication. "This
American ship called at Falmouth OF
her own accord on February Q, and her
cargo was detained as prize on Feb
ruary IL. The writ instituting prize
court proceedings was issued on Febru-
airy 81, and claimed that the cargo
should be condemned as contraband Of
war.
mo proceedings were taken or even
threatened against the ship herself. and
In the ordinary course the cargo would
have been unloaded when seized so that
the ship would be free to leave. The
owners OF the cargo. however, have
throughout objected to the discharge Of
the cargo. and II is because Of this oh
lection that the ship Is still at Fall
mouth with the cargo OH board.

HEERTA QUOTED AS SAYING

| Especial to The Times Dispatch.l
NEW YORK, April 14.-"I am going
back TO Mexico. If the people desire me
for President I will not fail them."z
This quotation, purportinE to come
to Frank l. Cohen, former master OF
public works in Glasgow. from General
Nictoriano Huerta, tonight, caused an
explosion of Deppery Spanish In the
twelve-room suite occupied by the for
mer dictator and his staff in the Hotel

Cohen, who is now a dilletante Jour
nalist. further alleged that the general
told him that neither life nor property
has any value In Mexico" and that there
are 500 clamorous aspirants for the
presidency, mot one of whom is honest
or worthy of office"
Huerta did not deny that the quota =
lions represent his present feelings. He
did deny. however, that he had given
Cohen permission to publish an inter-
view gained while accompanying the
general on tour Of broadway.
Mr.. Cohen cannot show an interview
signed by General Huerta. which Is the
only proof OF authenticity" exploded
Abraham u. Rather. the Mexican eXile's
| Interpreter. General Huerta will not
talk officially for publication until Fri
day morning"
to-day in the local Mexican muddlc.
Chief of these was the declaration by
Felix Diaz that alliance between him
self and Huerta is impossible. Diaz,
who has been flying, pack and forth
between this city, New Orleans and San
Antonio, nursing his own Presidential
boom, characterized Huerta as a "ban-
dit and thief"
"Hucrta was practically expelled
from Spain," declared his former CO.
conspirator. Everywhere he went he
was Kissed. In Spain they knew that
he looted the treasury. In one bank
alone in Madrid he deposited %. 900. 900
francs. I will ally myself with any
man who is honestly working for the
good of Mexico. but will have nothing
to do with Huerto"

National Labor Party
May Be Outcome of
Danbury Hatters' Case

In last weeks issue of the Worcester
tMiss.) Labor News, Editor Freeman NJ
Saltus has the following sage comment
upon the Danbury Hatters case:
The dreams Of those who have for
years wished that a labor party might
be formed in this country may be real
lied, according to Cornelius Leblanc, who
says that the labor movement in this
country is undergoing just such an ex
perience as did labor in England as
the result of the great railway work
crs' strike and from which sprung the
celebrated Taff-VaIe decision.
I'm England. as is the case in Dan
bury. the homes OF hundreds of railroad
men were seized aud the treasures OF
the unions We're mulcted to satisfy judg
ments which favored railroad magnates.
But, the lords of England and the
owners of railroads, as well as the dig
nified judges, who gloated over the de-
feat administered to labor, never dreamed
that they had caused the workers to
think-and that thought was put into
execution in the form of labor party,
which in short time was effective
enough to make the aristocratic ! iun-
derers reverse themselves and forever
put an end to union treasury plumber
ing in England.
''Mr. Lehane is not alone IN his belief
that the Danbury hatters judgment
may be cause for stirring American
workers to political action, as the New
York Globe in recent editorial pre-
dicted that the Danbury case is likely
to have important political effects.
TRADE unionists who are conversant
with the agitation which followed the
result of the Taff-Vale decision, and
who have watched the progress made by
the English Labor party since it was
formed, Is years ago, are in full accord
with the thought that should the United
States supreme court insist on selling
the Danbury workers homes to pay the
$280,O00 damages awarded to the ID. e.
Loewe concern, that the time will be
opportune for starting labor party.
"This, it is known, would be welcomed
with open arms in all large cities where
the workers are dissatisfied with the
present system of administering govern
mental and judicial affairs, and who be-
lieve the time has come for the workers
to assert themselves by using the full
limit of their political power"

facilitate sane development of our
land. With an increased crop diversi-
fication and intensified farming, not
only will the land support more people,
but the people actually living on the
land will do the work on it, without
having to call in thousands of landless
men to work for a month or two. The
experience OF certain districts in Califor-
mia has demonstrated that it is possible
for communities to coordinate agricul,

commission of immigration and housing.
As basis for the immediate practical
reforms that are suggested in the re-

part of the employer and the commun-

drawn number of American types, Sc

Of the play is almost farcical, but it is
carried off so well that the auditor for
gets all this in his desire to laugh. 1t
