DIGGS BLAMED HUSBAND’S AFFINITY Wife Told Caminetti He Was Cause of Trouble and Threatened Girls. Pan Francisco, Sept. 8.—Caminetti's testimony was brief. The government did not think it necessary to cross ex amine him. He told how O'Brien, a saloon keeper, had frightened him with an account of the anger shown by I. P. Diggs, Maury’s father: “These two girls and Caminetti are ruining my son,’’ O'Brien reported Diggs senior to have said. Shortly afterward Mrs. Diggs had called him at O’Brien’s on the tele phone. “I’m going to tell the girls’ parents and you know what they’ll do to you,” Mrs. Diggs had said. “I begged her not to talk that way on the telephone and asked permission to talk it over with her. She gave me permission and I went to see her that evening,” Caminetti said. What happened in the interview was told by Mrs. Diggs, who followed Cam inetti on the stand. "I told him,” she said, “that these girls were nothing but homebreakers and that I knew he was the cause of my husband’s being out so much. Caminetti just hung his head. “I told him I did not ever want to hear him speaking to Mr. Diggs again. I said I'd shoot Marsha Warrington like a dog if I ever saw her with my husband. I said 'I’m going to make those girls suffer just what I have suffered.’ ".He tried to make me promise to wait. I said I'll promise you nothing. Miss Warrington has come to my house. I’ve treated her like a lady. She has held my baby on her lap and she's just got to stop.’ "Caminetti said: All you've said Is true.’ ’’ Mrs. Diggs testimony, seemingly so damaging to the defendant, was in troduced in lin.e with the policy of the defense both in this and in the Diggs trial—to lay stress at any cost on the state of mind of the fugitives. Mrs. Diggs was not cross examined. ENVOY OF HUERTA COMING NORTH TO NEGOTIATE LOANS Washington. D. C., Sept. S.— That big financial interests in this country and abroad are working hard to bring about peace in Mexico, was learned today. American and Canadian bond holders of Mexican railroads will soon meet in New York to con sider restoring the rouds to good condition. Experts whb have been in Mexico will report that $75, 000,000 is needed to rehabilitate the properties. At the same time a syndicate of bankers is considering giving financial aid to Mexico. Of course, the giving of money to railroads or lending help to the Mexican government is contingent on Huerta quitting, on peace being restored and a new government coming in which this country can recognize. The facts as to finan cial activity became known today following the announcement that the Mexican government is send ing the financier Zamacona to this country. Washington, Sept. 6.—Manuel Do Zamacorfa e Inclan, former Mexican ambassador to the United States and until recently financial agent for the Mexican government in London, will endeavor to carry forward in Washing ton the negotiations between the Huer ta administration and the United States for a solution of the revolution ary problem. Senor Zamacona comes primarily to continue the negotiations begun with John Lind, but his ulti mate object is to obtain for the Mexi can government the loan which the United States declared in its second note it would encourage American bankers to float if the Huerta govern ment accepted the chief American pro posals. The administration here was sounded out as to the mission of Senor Zama cona and had not yet given its answer when the latter started from Vera Cruz yesterday. 11 __«_ 0-1 i. A..1 President Wilson and Secretary Bryan have adopted the attitude that the elimination of Victoriano Huerta from tlie presidential race in Mexico is assurred and that the first step to ward the establishment of peace has been accomplished. This was the authoritative declara tion of American officials, who also let it be known that oral assurances had been given Nelson O’Shaughnessy, charge d'affaires of the American em bassy. of Huerta’s inten tion not to be a candidate in the approaching elections. That the United States would con strue literally the argument in the sec ond note of Frederico Gamboa, Mexi can minister of foreign affairs, who pointed out at great length that a pro visional president in Mexico is ineligi ble to succeed himself; that an effort on the part of Huerta to eircuvent the constitution by resigning in advance of the elections in favor of another pro visional president would be regarded by the United States as a breach of faith before the world. Much stress was laid by the officials upon the withdrawal by Senor Gam boa in his second note of the original demand for recognition by the United States through the exchange of am bassadors. Will Receive Envoy. There seemed to be little doubt today in official circles that the Washington administration would receive Senor Zamaeona under certain conditions, as he is well known here and regarded as vne of the ablest of Mexicans. Senor Zamacona’s affiliations, how ever, have been with the financial in stead of the diplomatic side of the Mexican government. Some of the ?onstitutionalists in Washington look on him as the agent of the Cientifico, or financial group that for a long time rule I Mexico’s affairs. As he has be- u so little a participant in Mexican poli tics because of bis long absence abr rid, others are inclined to regard him as of a non-partisan disposition toward the present situation.

DAUGHTER OF PHIL SHERIDAN IS WIDOW Courted for 25 Years by Man Known in Sioux City—Hap piness Short Lived. Newark. Ohio, Sept. 8.-Twenty-five years of courtship and a hasty mar riage came to a sudden end yesterday when the bridegroom died of Bright’s disease. The bride-widow is a daugh ter of the late Gen. Phil Sheridan, hero of the civil war. She was married Wednesday to T. C. Wilson. A few hours after the ceremony he was stricken with convulsions and died. For 25 years Miss Sheridan has been postmistress at Somerset, a small town near this city. During all these years she has been courted by Wilson. The ceremony would have been performed long ago had it not been for religious differences. Miss Sheridan is a devout Catholic. The religious differences con tinued during all these years until re cently. Wilson was sick and wanted the ceremony performed. It was plan ned to go south at once for the benefit of Mr. Wilson’s health. Monday Miss Sheridan sent her resignation as postmistress to Wash ington and began preparations for her wedding. It. is understood she will re call her resignation at once. The case is of local interest because the late Mr. Wilson was a brother of Mrs. L. J. Randolph, 1723 Ross street. Mrs. Randolph has just left to attend the funeral. Mr. Wilson visited In Sioux City at his sister's home last summer. THIEVING GHOULS PLUNDER DEAD OF NEW HAVEN WRECK New Haven, Conn., Sept. 8.—That there were wholesale and disgraceful robberies from dead bodies at the rail road wreck at North Haven on Tues day morning, is declared by Coroner Mix in a report today to Chief of Police Smith, requesting him to apprehend the culprits. Coroner Mix said today during his inquest witnesses told of men cutting fingers off dead passengers to get rings and of persons searching clothing of injured passengers to secure money or valuables.

Other railroad men gave corrobora tive testimony and one of them told ot a man who with a piliow case went about picking up jewelry, purses and other articles of value. When others saw what he was doing they chased him across the fields, but he escaped. In today's investigation before the Interstate Commerce commission three witnesses testified that engineers of the New Haven railroad frequently pass danger signals of the “banjo” type in foggy weather without stop ping. It was further testified that the White Mountain express, the train which plunged into the Bar Harbor ex press, was barely saved from colliding with the Bar Harbor an hour before the North Haven disaster at a point between Springfield and Hartford.

The White Moun tain was making 52 miles an hour at Wallingford. An order to stop the White Mountain at Wallingford, which would have pre vented the wreck, was rescinded, it was brought out. Flagman Murray testified that he had gone back to place danger signals to protect l»is train, "as far as I could until I was recalled by my engineer’s whistle.” New Haven.. Conn., Sept. 5.—At tho opening of the federal investigation into the railroad wreck at North Hav en, Commissioner McChord ordered General Manager Bardo of the New Haven road to produce the minutes of all meetings of the New Haven direc tors since the Bridgeport wreck on July 12, 1911. They would show, he said, what ac tion had been taken toward the better ment of safety conditions Trainmen Not Informed. John g. Kelly, train dispatcher, had previously testified that weather con ditions on the morning of the wreck were “very foggy,” but that he had not considered it necessary to warn trains to reduce speed. Six trains passed over this stretch of track with in half an hour, he said. The White Mountain express made the fastest time of any of them, its time sheet showing an average speed of 52 miles an hour just before the express crashed into the Bar Harbor train. “Did any of the trains have any in i’* >rmation from you as to how close they were together?” asked Chief In spector Bel nap, of the Interstate Com merce commission. “No, I did not think they needed it,” replied the dispatcher. two Under Arrest.

C., Sept. 8,—Scenes of Jesolatlon mark virtually the entire North Carolina coast as the result of :ho hurricane that struck this section Wednesday night. Dispatches just mining in over makeshift lines of lomrnunicatlon indicate that the town jf Bell Haven was wiped off the map, while the town of Washington, N.
