CEN. HUERTA $ IN NO
 IMMEDIATE DANGER
Third Operation Performed On Mexican Warrior.
 Attended By Wife

Fl Paso Tex, January 4.-Gen Vic toriano Huerta was declared out of inn mediate danger late today by his phy- sician, following tapping operation to relieve him of fluid in the intestinal tract due to iaundice.
 The opera ton today, the third since Saturday, was performed without anaes- thetic, because of General Huerta's weak ened condition. That the patient is in a serious condition was conceded today by his physician, pr. NJ. P Schuster, al thought, when his attorney, Thomas Lea, mayor of Fl Paso, called previous to the operation today General Huerta was said to be as cheerful as usual
 The diagnosis upon which the operations have been performed have not been re- vealed by Dr. Schuster, although an opinion by consulting physician repre- senting Mayor Lea, indicated the patient was suffering from cancer of the gall bladder and possibly hardening of the liver. This opinion was rendered prior to any operation.
 A bulletin issued by Dr. Schuster was to the effect that General Huerta had been tapped to relieve him of fluid in the intestinal tract that this operation was more extensive than those performed heretofore and permitted draining of a larger area. The patient was much re- lieved and his temperature and pulse be- came normal, said the bulletin.
 General Huerta refuses the services of a trained nurse, insisting upon the at- tendance of his wife.

 One of the diplomatic dinners will be held January Ii and the other Jan- uary 2l.

 RECALL ELECTION IN ATLANTA TODAY
Voters Will Decide Whether Mayor Woodward and Five Police Com-
 missioners Shall Be Ousted

Atlanta, January 4.--Atlanta voters tomorrow will ballot at special elec- tion on the question of whether Mayor James c. Woodward and five mem bers of the board of police commission CTS shall be recalled. More than 12,- 900 voters have registered and both sides today claimed victory by a sub stantial majority. The polls will be open from a. m. to D. m
 The police commissioners whose re- call is asked are w. P. Fain, J. w. English, R. T. Pace, R. c. Clarke and A. R. King.
 The campaign for the recall of Mayor Woodward and his five asso- ciates was started as a result of the action of the police board in reducing Chief of Police James l.. Beavers to captaincy. Beavers was officially charged with insubordination in that, the police commissioners said, he was following the orders of some so-called reformers instead of the instructions issued by the board of police commits sioners. He refused to accept the re- duction and resigned. His friends as- serted that he had not been fairly treated.
 The election was called by a reso- lution of the city council after peti- tion signed by 25 per cent of the reg istered vote of the city had been pre- scented. Mayor Woodward vetoed the resolution and on it's being returned to the city council that body officially filed" it.
 After the council had acted finally on the resolution, opponents of the recall threatened court action This course finally was abandoned and the fight continued to efforts to win at the polls. Numerous mass meetings have been held and extensive use made of newspaper advertising by both sides.

Thomas W. Palmer, Jr., Is Speaker Before Pan American Congress
BIRMINGHAM MAN
 GIVES EXPOSITION OF MEXICAN LAWS
Finds That System Is Really More Scientific Than Ours, Though the Enforcement Is
 Inferior

Washington. January 4-(SpeciaL)- ator Bankhead, who visited Alabama as q representative of the administration for the purpose of urging peace in the interest of party among the rival political fac tions of the state returned to Washington this morning.
 "On the surface, at any rate" he said, there was peace in attendance on the meeting of the state executive committee. No disposition was shown to endanger the ticket on account of internal dissen- tion among the members
 There is little question but that dele- gation instructed for Wilson will repre- sent Alabama in St. Louis. But it is highly probable that instead of dividing honors among themselves, the prohibition ists and local 'optionist will struggle for control of the delegation. This is naturally to be regretted. but inasmuch as talk of dividing the honors was scarcely needed, we must make the best of the situation
 On arriving Senator Bankhead went into conference with political advisers of President Wilson.

FEDERAL AID FOR ROADS

Washington, January 4-(Special. )-Sen- ator Bankhead announced tonight that the highway engineers of Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland and possibly other states would confer with him tomorrow morning respecting the bill he has intro- duced providing for federal aid in the constructing of highways.
 The engineers of the country are work ing in support of the senator's bill, and are aiding him in securing its enactment by Congress. The author believes that ,Ihe measure will be successful in passage and is consequently greatly elated.
 There, is said to be for the first time a really good opportunity of securing the passage of a bill under the terms and provisions of which the federal govern ment will cooperate with the states fin the construction of good roads. | It is indicated that a suitable bill-either the Bankhead or the Shackelford meas ures-wil be enacted if the advocates will be satisfied with an appropriation Of S10, 0,006000. It has hitherto been suggested though not openly expressed, that $25000,- eco would be required for the prosecution of the work.
 The Shackelford bill provides that sum equal to that appropriated by the federal government must be raised by that state in which federal aid is expected; and that the money must be expended under the di- rection of the state highway commission CTS and the Secretary of the Department of Agriculture The Bankhead bill pro- vides that in arriving at the share of the general appropriation to be re$eived by each state, rural population must be the basis of division.
 Massachusetts, which has ouly per cent rural population, and New York only IS per cent, are preparing to register a kick against this provision But it is gem orally agreed that the chances of a satis- factory adjustment and the pamsage of q bill are unusually brighton, rather, for the first time, are bright.
