LARGEST AQUEDUCT
IN WORLD OPENED
Structure 155 Miles Long, Costing $780,,
100000, Brings Italian Provinces
Water from Apennines.

BARI, Italy, April 16 = Water from
the Apennines was distributed Tuesday
for the first time to the Provinces
of Bari, Foggia and Lecce through the
Apulia aqueduct, the largest in the
world, which was begun in 1895. More
than 100000 persons now are assured
of supply fresh from mountain
streams, brought through 1875 miles Of
pipe.
The territory served has suffered for
centuries from lack of an adequate sup
ply.
For the construction of the aqueduct,
the cost of which is estimated at $780,
100000 and upon which 1000 workmen
have been engaged nearly 10 years, the
course of the Sele river has been di-
verted
A collecting basin has been built at
its source, 1870 feet above the level of
the sea, whence the waters are con
veyed by tunnel for seven and one-half
miles, penetrating a watershed, and
then through the aqueduct, which is 155
miles long. While the most important
parts of the aqueduct have been com
pleted, it will take a year longer to fin
ish all the minor details.

GEN. HUERTA DENIES
HE KILLED MADERO
Declares He Knows Who Is Response
BILE But Is Keeping it as PRO
fessional Secret

NEW YORK, April -Vehemently
asserting that he had nothing to do
with the death of Francisco Madero.
Gen. Victorino Huerta, former provis-
ional president of Mexico, issued a
long signed statement last night, set
ting forth what he termed his side of
the Mexican question. General Huerta
declared that he knew who was respon-
sible for Madero s death, but that he
was keeping it as professional
secret.
Gen Huerta's s statement reviewed
the history of the Madero revolution
and his accession to the provisional
presidency, and concluded with the as
sertion that ''my country cannot be
conquered -
Sixteen millions of men, women and
Mexico would submit to an invader.
he asserted.
The heads of the Washington admin
istration, he declared, had not been
fair to Mexico, had been misled by
false statements, and if they had been
in Mexico for thirty days, they
would have changed their theoretical
erroneous ideas - Had it not been for
the embargo on the expectation of
arms from this country, Genearl Huert;e
indicated that his army would have
prevailed over those opposed to it.
The former provisional president re
iterated the assertion which he made
when he left Mexico last year-that
he had resigned only because he hoped
to bring peace to his country. He
pointed out that in the eight months
since that date the situation in Mexico
had become 8 too sad for me TO an
alyze deeply. -
Anarchy is too safe a word to call
it, he said. Mexico would eventually
be saved, but by a Mexican. Who
| that would be, he did not know.
General Huerta declined, in response
to questions, to give any inking as to
his future movements. He denied tho
| report that he would go to San An
tonic, Tex, or any cher point near the
| Mexican border.

AvIATORs THREW BOMBS.
Several Civilians, Including Children,
Killed or Wounded.

BERLIN, April 16. - The official
statement today is as follows: Near
Ostend and Nieuport some hostile de-
stroyers took part yesterday in artil-
lery firing, but were quickly silenced.
On the southern border of St. Eloi
we occupied two villages. South of the
Lorette fighting began again last night.
Between the Meuse and the Moselle
only artillery duels took place
The use of bombs developing asphyx-
iating gases and explosive infantry
cartridges by the French is daily be
coming more frequent. Aviators were
unusually active last night and yester-
day, as the weather was favorable.
Hostile aYiators threw bombs on
several places behind the German
front. At Greiburg several civilians
including children, were killed OF
wounded.
On the eastern front the situation
is unchanged.
In Russian Poland in the last few
days 1,040 Russians were taken prison
ers and seven machine guns were cap
tured.

FUTURE OF PARK
NOT DECIDED UPON
Samuel G. Brown Begins Work on Pa
vilion to Prevent Further Damage
When Ice Melts Away.

The management Of Island park has
engaged Samuel @. Brown to work on
the pavilion at the park which was
partially wrecked by the ice this win
ter. Mr.. Brown began work this
morning.
There are still huge cakes of ice
under the building, some of which are
partially supporting the structure. It
is the purpose of the owners to put in
such temporary supports as will pre-
vent further damage when the ice
melts, but no plans for permanent
work there have been made.
The baseball field is not so deeply
covered with debris as it was two
years ago, when the silt in some places
was eight inches deep and gullies were
washed in the outfeld. 1t is probable
the debris viii be removed before
work is stopped in order to prevent
undesirable weeds from taking root
there.
The future of the park is not yet de-
cided upon.

ANOTHER RAID
BY A|RSH|PS
Bombs Dropped in the Counties of Suffolk and
Essex EARLY This Morning Little Damage Re-
suited Dutch IncenSed Over Sinking of the
Steamer KatWyk

Another raid by German airships, the
third in as many days, was reported today
from London.
1t is said that German aeroplane
dropped bombs in Kent. This is the first
instance of a daylight attack by German
aviators flying over England.
Last night Zeppelin raids resulted in
considerable damage to property.
1t is announced officially in Berlin that
the airships making the first raid returned
in safety
Although no great battles are in pro-
gress with the exception of the protracted
struggle on the 115-mile front in the Car
pathians active operations are being un-
dcrtaken over increasing wide sections OF
both the eastern and western fronts.
In the east the Russians have taken up
the attack along the Warsaw front after
the long winter lull.
They claim the capture Of village
about 30 miles from the Polish capital
In the vicinity of Ossowetz fighting also
has been resumed.
Holland is deeply stirred by the sinking
of the Dutch steamer Katwyk, bearing a
cargo of corn consigned to the govern
ment of the Netherlands. The Dutch ma
rine ministry expressed the opinion that
the vessel was sunk by a German subma
rine.
The suggestion has been made that each
ship Of the allies sunk by the German
submarines be replaced by a vessel of cor
responding size from among the 27S YES
sell, detained in French ports,
Tic G.ench government mas taken tht
suggestion under consideration, although
it is explained that the consent Of Grea
Britain would be necessary.
Dispatches from the Italian fronte
say Italy now has 100000 soldiers full,
equipped. The people and governmen
still hope to avoid war.

Airships Took Part in Raid Early
This Morning.

least two Ieppelns were concerned in the
raid over the counties of Suffolk and rs
sex early this morning, but so far as
material damage is concerned the Ger

there was more than one. as attacks were
made within few minutes of each other
at places 20 miles apart
The first was on Maiden at 1920 a. IN.
After turning about the airship made an
attack on Heybridge some time later
The second attack was made between
1890 and 1245 a. m, on Southwald, on

THIRD AERIAL RAID
WITHIN SO HOURS

Missiles Used Seem to Be Of an In

their appearance over Herne bay to
the east of Canterbury and about 50
miles from London. Within few

the capital, dropping bombs on each
town. This is the third aerial attack
On the east of England in the last SO
hours. The two previous attacks were
made at night by Zeppelin airships.
This raid is being carried out by
aeroplanes. Aerial onslaughts have
not been limited to the Germans.
The French report bombardment en-
the imperial German headquarters in
retaliation for the Zeppelin assault on
Nancy.
a German wireless report credits to
a Swiss newspaper the statement that
French airmen have dropped bombs on
several German towns unprotected by
anti-air craft guns.
London no longer considers herself
immune from air raiders. 1t Is reeog-
nized also that even an aeroplane can
lombard a city.
1t would appear that the latest aie
raiders have used bombs of an incen-
diary rather than an explosive char
aeter.
On land operations the French claim
brillian successes north of the Arras
which completes the gains made near
there last month.

brilliant successes north of Arras

PARIS, July ell have just visited

Flanders to the Swiss frontier. French
officers of the general staff continually
watched over me as if l were a royal

whisked towards the front.
About an hour after sunrise We
reached a small village barely one
kilometer from the firing line. 1t had
been raining the day before and now
a heavy fog covered everything.
If at first we saw nothing, we heard
everything SO much more distinctly.
In the fog we could hear the deep
growing of the German heavy guns.
Now and then a shell from French
"Seventy-five" whizzed through the
which made me think of Caruso at his
best. Very soon we also heard the
voices of the mitrailleuses grinding
out their endless stream Of projectiles.
Now and then a heavy explosion of
an aerial torpedo which filled the air
with a sweet but disagreeable smell,
which t;ckled your throat and made
you cough, and through all these con-
fused noises came the barking of the
German "minenwerfers, or bomb
throwers, squatty apparatus which
placed in the bottom of a trench throw
bombs into the trenches of the
enemy opposite. I saw several OF
these which had been captured by the
French.
AS we waded through the muddy
fields, shell fell into a school which
had been made into a tea room for
French soldiers, who have taken a
strong liking to this English beverage.
The shell killed two men and wounded
five.
