MARY BAKER AGAIN
PUTS Off WEDDING
Announcement Follows Young
Brides Sudden Cancellation
of Trip to London.
Rr International News Service.

PARIS, May 27.-The wedding Of
Miss Mary Landon Baker and AL
lister Mccormick. members OF two
rich and prominent Chicago families,
which was to have taken place in
England next month, has been post
poned until September, 1t was
learned this afternoon, after Miss
Baker had suddenly Cancelled her
plans to go to London.
The wedding. II it takes place.
probably will be in London.
On two previous occasions the
nuptials were balked because the
bride failed to show up at the
church.
Mccormick angrlly denied that he
and Miss Baker had quarreled.
The report that we have quar-
relied is false, and it has angered
me-" said young Mccormick with
emphasis. "I agreed to the post
ponement in Chicago following a
breakdown Of Miss Bakers health.
Mary Is going to England, maybe
on Tuesday. am going to follow
in a weeks time. We shall spend
as much time together in London
as we have in Paris.
There is going to be a big we'd
ding in September, after which we
shall live happily ever afterward."
Friends of Miss Baker heard
earlier in the day that the London
trip had been postponed a fort
night.
Mccormick finally cleared up the
mystery why the postponement
came about after the tickets had
been bought and all travelling
reservations arranged.
THE solution is simple" said he.
MARY wanted a hat to match her
latest Paris gown, and she said she
would not go to London until she
found such a hat, no matter IL 1t
took forever"

Capital Doubts New
Revolt by Felix Diaz

Rumors that Felix Diaz, nephew
of the late Porfirio Diaz, is about to
cross from the United States into
Mexico with q number of former Car.
ranza generals and attempt the over
throw of the Obregon government
were deprecated in official circles
here last night.
Diaz recently visited New York and
to obtain financial backing
for a revolution from a number OF
American companies with large in
terests in Mexico. but he Is believed
to have met with little success. and
1t is thought any attempt he might
be able to make against Obregon
would be easily crushed.

Operative.
BANKER NOW IN BOSTON
Attorney General Issues State
ment Giving Facts in
Pardon Case.

Federal District Attorney Harris,
at Boston, had orders last night
from the Department of Justice
to take prompt and effective
measures to prevent Charles w.
Morse, under indictment for con-
spiracy to defraud- the, Govern
ment, from leaving the country.
1t had been reported here that
Morse contemplated sailing from
Boston to Halifax, but il he
should attempt to leave he would
be arrested and held pending or
ders from the Attorney General.
Notified of Sailing.
The department was notified Just
before noon that Morse was planning
to sail for Halifax on a vessel of the
National Steamship Line.
The operative who communicated
this information by long distance tel
ephone has had Morse under con.
stant surveillance. He was instruct
ed to communicate with the Federal
attorney at Boston, and, IL necessary
to prevent Morse from sailing, to
obtain a warrant and have the United
States marshal serve it.
Morse is understood to have come
from his home in Maine to Boston
Friday night. He held a conference
in Boston with his two sons. It is
understood that the trio planned TO
leave the Jurisdiction Of the United
States courts at the same time. In
structions were to arrest all three il
necessary to prevent their departure.
In an effort to silence Senatorial
critics who have bombarded him con-
stantly during the past few weeks
for his connection with the release
OF Charles w. Morse, New York
financier, from the Atlanta Federal
prison. Attorney General Daugherty
last night made public all the rec
ords in the Department of Justice
bearing upon the communication Of
Morses sentence by President Taft.
Evades Caraway Charge.
Daugherty made no direct replies
to charges Of Senator Caraway Dem.)
Of Arkansas. that the release of
Morse was obtained through Illegal
means and that he received a large
sum of money for his assistance
in getting the New York banker out
Of prison on the ground that he was
seriously Ill.
80 much misinformation has re.
Gently been made public with respect
to the Morse case" the Attorney
General said, that 1t will, perhaps,
be of public interest to have at this
time a resume of the various pro-
ceedings."
Daugherty declared the Depart
ment of Justice records show that
Morse was released from Atlanta upon
the recommendation Of Attorney
General wickersham, who based his
recommendation on the report Of a
board or reputable physicians, IN
cluding army surgeons. This report
indicated, Daugherty said, that Morse
was suffering from a serious illness.
Despite widespread sympathy" for
Morse prior to his release. which re-
suited In a flood of messages urging
Communication OF the bankers SEN
tence. Daugherty said President Taft
was moved only by the report Of the
physicians on Morse's physical con.
dition.
The record made public by the
Attorney General was a very ma

CHARLES TOWN, w. Va, May
27.-William Blizzard, alleged
generalissimo of the miners
army which marched upon Logan
county last summer and fought
with deputy sheriffs until Federal
troops were called out, was
acquitted by a jury in circuit
court here tonight Of treason
against the State of West Vir-
ginia.
Verdict Is Popular.
The jury was s.ven the case at
3:27 o'clock this afternoon. Six
hours and ten minutes was consum-
ed in attempting to arrive at a YER
dict, two hours Of which was taken
out for dinner.
Peaceful Charles Town broke into
a riot Of noise. The pandemonium
which answered the verdict: I'VE
find for the defendant" extended
outside the court room.
Blizzard was given a wonderful
reception as he emerged from the
little red court house, scene OF a
similar trial sixty-three years ago.
The jurors as they left the scene
Of their labors which extended over
a month, were likewise cheered.
The little red courthouse is the
identical spot where John Brown.
famous abolitionist. was convicted
Of treason si1ty-three years ago.
Residents Of peaceful Charles Town,
which has been conspicuous in his
tory since colonial days, flooded
the courthouse tonight to await the
second treason trial verdict ever re-
turned in calm, quiet jefferson
county.
After the jury had once reported
its inability to reach a verdict and
court was recessed for dinner, a
report emanating from official
sources had the jury ten to two for
acquittal.
When the jurymen filed out, an
over-crowded courtroom in which
women predominated. Immediately
broke into a buzz Of conversation.
Blizzard seemed least concerned of
the big assemblage. He had in his
lap his five-year-old son, asleep
most of the first hour Of the jury's
deliberations.
Blizzard Is Calm.
His wife, her little girl clasped
close to her, frequently lifted a
dampened handkerchief to her red
dened eyes In which the tears con-
stantly welled.
Next to Mrs. Blizzard, sat Biz
yards sixty .year-old mother. q thin,
spectacled little woman, a wisp Of
gray creeping through her once
blond hair which stood out con-
spicuousiy against the background
of black clothing. Mrs. Billiards.
mother completed the family circle
As time wore on with no report
from the jury. Blizzard went to an
ante.room and conversed with
friends. His little boy and girl
playfuny edged their way about
the crowd which filled every avail.
able nook.
After an hour had elapsed q
ripple Of excitement spread through
the courtroom. A verdict was ex-
pected. but the jury asked for a
copy Of Judge Woods instructions.
which would shape the verdict and
