PRESIDENT HUERTA HA8 TROOPS
ARREST DEPUTIES WHO
DEFY HIM.
ONE SENATOR IS MISSING
Disappears After Denouncing Execu
tlve and Colleagues Demand Na
tion's Chief Explain His Absence
Drastic Action Follows.
Mexico City, Mex., Oct. 13. Presl
dent Huerta had 110 members of the
chamber of deputies arrested on Fri
day and locked In the penitentiary for
signing resolutions of warning to him
as tho result of the disappearance on
Thursday night of Dr, Rellsaro Do
mlnguez, senator for Chiapas.
Five other deputies who sighed tho
resolution wero absent when a cordon
of troops waa thrown about the legis
lative building and several hundred
soldiers invaded tho chamber.
In anticipation of trouble heavy pa
trols of troops are on the streets.
The rapid flro guns which were
posted In tho interior courtB of the
palace in Fohruary aro again in place
and quantities of ammunition are at
hand.
The arrcstB followed a demand by
President Huerta that the chamber
withdraw tho resolution, which car
ried a threat that jthe deputies would
abandon the capitol owing to an al
leged lack of guarantees for their
jPersonal safety.
Senator Domlnguez made a speech
in the senate early In the month vio
lently attacking Huerta, saying that
not only had nothing been done dur
ing Huerta's regime toward pacifica
tion of tho country, but that tho pres
ent situation in the republic was in
finitely worse than before. He said
tho currency of Mexico had depre
ciated, fields had been neglected,
towns razed, and that famine threat
ened. He added that the situation
waB proof that the Mexican people
could not resign themselves to be gov
erned by Huerta.
The senator who thus attacked
Huerta disappeared mysteriously at
night.
Before the hour for the regular open
lng of tho session of the chamber at
four o'clock in tho afternoon the base
ment and root of the building had
been packed with troops. Scores of
police wero scattered through tho gal
lery. When tha deputies were In their
places the minister of the interior,
Manuel Garza Aldape, entered the
chamber. Simultaneously several hun
dred federal troops lined up In front
of tho building.
Senor Aldapo ascended the platform
and read the reply of President Huer
ta to the resolution warning him of
tho deputies' Intention to dlssolvo par
liament and hold their sessions else
where and demanding an Investiga
tion of the disappearance of Senator
Domlngues.
The reply said that President Huer
ta could do no less than consider the
resolution an act of unjustified ag
gression and transgression of the
rights of tho two other powers the
executive and the courts.
When tho arrests wero made a few
of tho leaders were placed In autorao-
' piles while tho other deputies were
taken to tho penitentiary In street
I cars.
Meanwhile similar demands to re
cant) had been made on members of
tho senate who had concurred In the
chamber's resolution.
A committee of senators called on
President Huerta nnd signified their
willingness to comply with his de
mands. Later tho senators formally
withdrew this action.

SENATORS HINT CONSPIRACY
Wilson Tells Callers Convention Views
Do Not Represent the Public Senti
ment Says Quick Action Is Need
ed to Aid Business Men.
Washington, Oct. 11. Now feelings
of confidence In the currency reform
bill wero felt on Thursday following a
concerted defense of the measure by
Democratic senators who donounced
the criticisms of tho bill made by bank
ers at the Boston convention of the
American Bankers' association and
against what was alleged to bo an or
ganized effort to hinder its considera
tion and passage.
A senate debate in which the bank
ers' criticisms came in for sharp an
swer from friends of tho bill on the
senate floor found its echo later In the
day when President Wilson mado
plain to callers his own view of tho
recent developments surrounding tho
bill.
The president let It be known that
ho did not think tho views of tho Bos
ton bankers' convention, ns they boro
on the currency bill now before tho
senate, represented tho general publio
sentiment of the country. In tho
president's view the attacks mado on
the blllby tho Boston conference rep
resented the activities of men whom
he believed to bo acting with sincerity,
but who as Individuals refused to
yield their position of control of the
country's financial system.
Tho expressions in the senate were
moi emphatic.
"I think this Boston meeting's obvi
ous purposo was to work up opposi
tion to this bill," said Senator Owen
"and either to force the bankors' view
or to delay or defeat this bill"
Senator Thomas talked of an "or
ganized conspiracy" to misrepresent
tho president and impede legislation;
Senator Overman declared tho Boston
conference did not reflect tho views of
the general public; and Senator Owen,
answering a question by his Demo
cratic colleagues, said ho believed
there was nn organized propaganda
against tho bill that found Its reflec
tion in tho Boston conference nnd in
the various state bankors' conven
tions which have adopted resolutions
criticising the currency measure.
No effort will bo mado to make tho
currency bill n party measure In tho
senate unless it becomes impossible
to get It through In nuy other way.
Tho president believes early action
on tho bill Is essential,

Wires are somewhat blackened
when thrust into a candle or acety

deposit of carbon. Bruno Tblemo of
Berlin places in the flame two copper
wlreB, ono about half an Inch nbovo
tho other. These wires aro electrodes
of a battery current, nnd tho carbon
on tho cathode or negatives quickly
forms a thick growth, branching out
Into tho flame. Tha greatest effect 1b
obtained with a current of 12 to 25
volts. Reversing tho current trans
fers tho carbon to the other wlro, nnd

a series of holes in a horizontal tube,
and n wire was passed through It
with a picco of wlro gauze suspended
above. By means of an electro-mag-netlo
relay the soot was automatically
shaken oft when It reached to the
gauze and short circuited tho current.
By introducing copper or other salts
between plato or wlro electrodes, me
tallic deposits wero obtained, similar

It Is said that the' striped barber
polo originated In those good old days
when every barber was supposed to
bo n surgeon. In days of old, when
knights were bold, cu'tB, contusions,
bruises and wounds wero not at all
Infrequent. Then It was part of tho
harbor's business to dress woundo.
Tho striped pole served to guldo the
unfortunate ono to tho nearest barber-surgeon.
Whether or not this skill
In BUrgery helped whon tho razor
slipped Is not stated In history.
Only recently has the barber polo
boon elplrlfiod By day It ro.volves
and"'by night It Is Illuminated' by a
small electric lamp. The electrlo or
revolving barber polo has for a mld
die section a glass cylinder that Is
two feet or more In height by about
eight Inchos In diameter, this section
being supported on an ornamental
base or on a tstout brass rod rising
from tho nldewalk. The glass section
of tho pole is surmounted by an or
namental cap.
Within the glass section of the pole
Is another cylinder mado of a thin,
light-weight, translucent material up
on which aro painted the traditional
spiral stripes of red, white and blue,
tho familiar Blgn ot the barber. This
Inner cylinder Is pivoted top and bot
tom and made to revolvo by means of
a tiny electric motor attached at tho,
top. Current Is carried to this motor
on a wlro leading from an electric
light fixture within the building and
up out of sight inside the polo's base.
Within tho inner cylinder of the elec
trlo revolving barber pole aro two In
candescent electrlo lights by which '
the polo can bo Illuminated at night.
