tions of southwestern and central Ok

RIGID ORDER ISSUED.
Madero Declares Coal to Be Contra
band of War.
El Paso , Tex. An order which if
rigidly adhered to will entail serious
consequences to all industries of
northern Mexico , has been issued by
President Madero , and was served on
General Manager Ferris , of the Mexi
co Northwestern railway.
The order , which declares coal to
be contraband of war , and which de
mands that the railroads decline to
handle a "single lump" of it , was re
ceived by the Mexican consul and by
him > given to Mr. Ferris. It is said
President Matero also has notified the
government at Washington.
The Mexico Northwestern , which
runs from El Paso through Juarez ,
Pearson and Madera to Chihuahua , is
the only line now operating through
Chihuahua which has a terminus in
El Paso.
The Mexican Central is under rebel
control and its northern terminus is
at Juarez. Much of the coal which
has been brought in for the use of the
smelters and other industries is said
to have fallen into the hands of the
rebels , who have used it to run trains
and for other purposes. It is said that
many of the largest industries of the
state of Chihuahua will have to close
within two weeks if new supplies of
fuel are not forthcoming.
Debts Will Be Liquidated.
Chicago. Steps toward the liquida
tion of the obligations of the Wabash
Railroad company were taken when
Federal Judge Geo. A. Carpenter en
tered an order directing the receivers
to raise $1,500,000. The money will be
raised by means of certificates of in
debtedness and will be utilized in the
settlement of interest on bonded debts
and other obligations.

ular Republicans controlled the Iowa
state convention last Wednesday by
a vote ot 761 to 720 , and elected dele-
gates-at-large to the national conven
tion , instructed them for Talt and took
revenge for the rebuff of two years
ago to the president by refusing to
mention the name of Senator A. B.
Cummins in the resolutions.
But two roll calls were taken , one

other on resolutions. The insurgents
offered a minority resolution report

ty , George D. Perkins of Sioux City ,
Luther Brewer of Cedar Rapids and
James Bryan of Creston , the latter be
ing the former secretary of ex-Con
gressman William P. Hepburn , and
the proxy may be given to the latter.
Iowa now sends to the national con
vention 16 votes for Taft and ten for
Cummins.
At a meeting of the delegates , Col.
William G. Dews of Cedar Rapids ,
Fifth district , was named chairman of
the delegation , and United States Marshal -
shal Clark of Ottumwa , Sixth district ,
sergeant-at-arms.
The address of the temporary chair
man , insurgent , was an appeal for
harmony. It was the Taft men's day
and they ruled after the method
taught them by the Insurgents. John
Adams of Dubuque , state manager for
Taft , will be made the national committeeman -
mitteeman from Iowa >

the state delegates to the national con
vention. With considerable more than
half the state heard from the vote is

hundred of the 290 cities and towns

head of cattle and hidden the money.
Desperadoes came to his hacienda
and demanded money. Failing to get
(
it they beheaded him with machetes ,
herded his cattle together and drove
them away. There are many in-
stances like this. i
"We lived where eleven American
families had founded the town of San-
burn. All eleven families left because
we were afraid to remain longer ,
knowing we would all be killed or
tortured. "

Mr. Shay , one of my neighbors , about
a week before I left the settlement , "
said Mr. McGee , "and demanded
money and guns. Being refused , Jiey
took Mrs. Shay , tied her down and
began beating her feet. Mr. Shay and
his son , to stop the torture , gave four
guns and $800 to the desperadoes ,
who left the place. At the hospital In
Mexico City it was foand that nearly
every bone in Mrs. Shay's feet had
been broken.
"What is true of the Shay family
has been true of scores of other
Americans. The bandits are every
where.
"Many Americans believe the Ma-
dero military forces so dislike the I
j
Americans that they would rather per
mit the brigandage than try to stop it.
Whenever rurales are near the ban-
flits disperse , but there is rarely a
shot fired. "

Ex-President's Dissolution
- Letter Concerning
solution of Trust Read : Do Not
File Suit Until Later.
Washington , April 26. The senate
received on Wednesday , in response tea
a resolution , photographic copies from
the official records of the department
of justice and the department of com
merce and labor of correspondence
which refuted certain statements
which Colonel Roosevelt has made in
reply to charges made by Representa
tive Gardner of Massachusetts. The
correspondence shows that Colonel
Roosevelt while president in 1907 di
rected Attorney General Bonaparte
not to file suit against the Interna
tional Harvester company until he re
ceived further instructions from him.
This action was taken by Colonel
Roosevelt after conferring with George
W. Perkins.
The senate adopted early In the day
a resolution offered by Senator John
son of Alabama , Democrat , calling for
the correspondence. The attorney
general submitted the photographic
copies within three hours.
Aside from the instructions from
Colonel Roosevelt , which forbade pros
ecution pending a conference between
Attorney General Bonaparte and Her
bert Knox Smith , chief of the bureau
of corporations , and Mr. Perkins , the
most striking feature of the corre
spondence is the report subsequently
made to the president by Mr. Smith.
In it , as all through the correspond
ence , emphasis is given to the desire
of the International Harvester com
pany to bring itself within the law.

ALL OVER NEBRASKA.
Winter Wheat in Fair Condition.
Douglas County. Farmers of Ne
braska , who have planted winter
wheat and which is affected by the
cracking of the ground should not be
too fast to plow it under" , says Prof.
C. W. Puglsey of the Nebraska Experi
ment Station. Prof. Puglsey has auth
orized the Publicity Bureau of the
Commercial club of Omaha to spread
the information throughout the state
that the condition of the ground is not
as critical as seme might think. How
ever , he advises the rolling of the
grund. with a corrugated roller , if pos
sible.
Not only will this procedure increase
the yield but it will prevent loss from
crocking of the ground wherever such
condition exists. Winter wheat is in
fairly good condition , he says. How
ever , it can be much improved by a lit
tle judicious rolling. But he insists
that the farmers should not be too
quick to plow wheat under , which ,
looks as if it might be damaged by the
cracking and baking of the ground ,
which has resulted from the excessive
snows of the winter.

preacher named. His father is dead
and Rev. Mr. Lewis and his present
wife have been married for some
twelve years. There is no relationship
between the bride and groom , and yet
they have been members of the same
famil } ' . Rev. Mr. Lewis by marriage ,
is his own daughter's father-in-law. He
la also her stepfather.

ing to happen the steamship Titanic
