Indemnity for the Iom of life and property

out that the prigilrm need at this time
being to ee that no American aett le
nient In expoaed to danger from either fed
eral or rebel bullet.
Supplementing Its first representations In
ipfctud to the border situation the State de
partment today reoriented the Mexican rov
ernment to extend protection to the t'anal
development compnny, an American con
cern, whoee aupplies at Mexican, Irfjwer
California, according; to report received
here, ate threatened with destruction by
Insurftents. It Is on this plant that the
Imperial valley of California depends for
its water supply.
According to official Information here
there are between D00 and 700 federal sol
nlera In the neighborhood and It Is con
fidently expected the Mexican government
will order an adequate guard to the scene.
The disposition of the fifty Mexican fed
eral soldiers (three officers and forty-seven
men) who surrendered at the battle of
As.ua Prieta and who are "in charge-' of
the commanding officer of the American
forces at Douglas, Ariz., presents an In
tricate problem to the American govern
ment The question whether or not the men
should be held as prisoners Is being gen
erally discussed by officials here. The
general Impression seems to be that there
is ho statute under which the t'nited States
can hold the soldiers.
The question will probably remain In Its
present status until the Mexicans ask for
thfir rAeaxe. The American command
ing officer at Douglas has asked and re
ceived orders from the War department
fof full authority to provide rations and
everything necensary for the coitfort of
the Mexicans "In his Charge."
The situation at Douglas from an Amer
ican standpoint la extremely delicate, ac
cording to reports received by the War
department toSay, whlch declare that the
people of that town are strongly pro-Insurgent.
A strong patrol of American
soldiers lias been thrown along the bordel
lo preserve neutrality, but notwithstand
ing this, H Is asserted tl..l ome of the
people of Douglas have assisted the revo
lutionists with guns and ammunition at
places where they have been able to evade
the patrol.
During the fight at Augua Prieta on
Thursday the American troops and cus
toms officials confiscated thirteen rifles
that were on their way kcross the lln.
Men also were trying, the official advices
state, to cross the boundary.

to prevent any repetition of the Dougla

With rumors here of another conflict at
Agua Prieta, the preldent today ordered
. Ui Sixth cavalry regiment from Des

This step supplements the president's

that the Mexican government and the In
surgent commanders will heed warnings
from President Taft and as far as possi
ble choose their battle grounds with re
spect for the rights of a neutral pewer. No
reply has been received by the State de
partment to the representations made to
the Mexican governmenfln this connection,
but already assurance has been received
from the rebel commander at Agua Prieta.
Officials are loath to discuss the acute
situation that would arise In case an
American town Is again threatened. It is
made plain It would create a diplomatic
Incident that would be Immediately re
ferred to and dealt with by the president
directly.
As far as the customs situation at Agua
Prieta is concerned. Involving the question
of recognizing the control of the revolu
tionists, official Washington is awaiting
developments. The sub-treasury depart
ment telegraphed the collector of the
port of Douglas for a report of conditions
there and at Agua Prieta.
The International aspect of the case Is
receiving the close attention of the State
department. . The administration, It is

determining a line of policy.

SALOMONE WRITES TO POPE
Sicilian brigand Invokes th- Aid of
Pontiff to Mnke Two Priests
Keep Promise.' I
ROME, April 13-(Speclal Cablegram.) j
Salomone, the Sicilian brigand, who. with
two priests named Vasapoll, was acquitted
In 190ft of the murder of the mayor of
Parrafranca, Is awaiting trial for other
murders. He has written a letter to the
pope, explaining that the priests were
acquitted owing to his refusal to accuse
them falsely of having Instigated the
murder of the mayor. Out of gratitude
they promised him financial help to enable
him to defend himself at the forthcoming
trial, but this promise, ha says, they have
forgotten.
Salomone further Implores the pope for
pitv and help' and asks him to remind the
prltsts of their promise. He assures the
pope that he Is innocent, but destitute,
and asks his blessing.
The pontiff has communicated the letter
to the bishop of Piaxzo Armerlna. where
the priests reside, with Instructions that
they be compelled to redeem their promise
The pope also wrote to the chaplain of
the prison where Salomone Is confined
and asked him to bless the prisoner on his
bel ulf and encourage him to rely on Jus
tice, for. if innocent, he Is bound to be
acquitted.
Salomone Is popular In Sicily and his
Innocence Is not doubted. So great Is the
sympathy for him there that his trial Is
to take place in central Italy, as otherwise
he would certainly be acquitted. ,

GlTes From 25 to 85 Per Cent Profit
on Expense of KeeptnK
It I p.
Prof. Jules Aniar recently submitted to
the Academy of Medicine In Paris the re
sults of his study of the. man machine. He
proceeded upon the principle that a man
who eats liberally ought to recuperate In
weight every twenty-four hours.
If his weight lessens he works to excess.
If his weight Increases he has not expended
the maximum effort. A mar found that the
human machine gives a profit of 25 to
35 per cent on the expenditure; but that
the best artificial machine returns only 14
per cent.
It woulu seem from these experiments,
that man Is Indeed superior to all mechan
isms; with the very slight exception that
he always wastes energy during the first
five minutes of work before gaining hie
equilibrium.
It would seem that Monday's human la
bor Is the most Inferior and Tuesday's the
most superior, owing to the curious action
of Sunday as a day of rest; the Monday
lassitude of the FVench worklngman is
proverbial. And It la found that the work
man who does not rest gradually loses his
energy, and this Is now a subject of keen
interest among scientists.
The relation between fatigue and acci
dents receives much more attention In
Europe than here, as do all matters relat
ing to the conservation of human energy
and the safety of the worklngman. The
relation between fatigue and accidents has
Indeed been noted in practically all forms
of human energy. Bank clerks make most
of their mistakes late In the afternoon, and
this Is said to have had something to do
with the early closing of such Institutions.
Bankers, at any rate, have had the sense
to note that the mistakes of their em
ployes are likely to prove expenalve.-Die-

(From a Staff Correspondent )
EL PASO, Tex., April 11 (Special Corre
spondence. Three thousand people crowded
and cursed at a demonstration of sym
pathy for the Mexloan Insurrecto cause
and In appeal for Its recognition of bellig
erency by the t'nited States on the streets
of this city last night. Hacked by mounted
police and every officer in the city. Mayor
C. E. Kelly denied the right to parado
the street, but granted permission for
sprechea. L. Gutierrez de Lara, Mexican
socialist, author and orator, hatless, coat
less. , wearing a coarse flannel shirt, and
his hair disheveled in the soft southern
breeze, straight and dignified, like an In
dian chief, spoke and argued with the
crowd until crtea of "Viva Madero" ' and
"I'eath to Navarro" were heard on every
side. . His impassioned words kindled every
Insurrecto sympathizer. When the streets
were so - hopelessly, blocked that the
mounted polloe could do nothing De I.nra
announced he would make another speech
at another point. At this point the police
Interfered and amidst a hall of stones,
with De Lara resisting on the ground that
he waa entitled to free speech, the Mexican
agitator was dragged to Jail, while the
inflamed crewd yelled, "Viva, viva De
Lara."
All plans had been made for a great
street demonstration. Men carried huge
banners and American and Mexican flags.
A party of fifty Mexican children. In
various costumes, led by a girl In liberty
garb, carried a banner saying, "Jlake way
for the children." Pome emblems on the
banners were. "No Re-Klectlon," "Kqual
Ity," "Liberty" and "America, the Land
of Liberty" was Inscribed In loth English
and Spanish.
The right to hold a parade was denied
on the ground that It was not a socialistic
gathering, but one made up of revolution
ary firebrands.
Mayor Is Be!eged.
Mayor Kelly was In the center of the
turmoil In an automobile and was besieged
by socialists and Insurrectos who wanted
to hold the parade. After the mayor had
invited Lee Pollard, social stic candidate
for mayor, down an alley to settle their
differences a friend Introduced De I-ara,
who said. "I suppose you know me."
"We do not propose to have any trou
ble." he continued. "We have prepared
for a parade, and we want to hold It."
The mayor held firm. Someone then lit
red fire In several places and the light
showed the alze of the great crowd, rest
less, but peaceable.
After addresses had been made by two
men and one militant woman of the Emma
Goldman type De Lara arose In all his
glory. He was greeted by roll upoh roll
of cheers. He made a striking picture,
standing erect, with head thrown hack,
while a flickering crimson llge brought his
rugged features into sharp relief. When
he began to speak In deep throated ca
dences the crowd swayed before the magic
of his message like aheep before a storm.
Starting with politic care, De Lara wrapped
and Interwrapped Ideas upon Ideas, cleverly
and effectively,
"When I was here three years ago," he
began, "the Mexican people had not dared
to ralae their voice for liberty. Ah, what
a difference now. . We are not only, allowed
to meet and talk, but his honor, the mayor,
comes to heat1 us. " -
"The police surround us, but they are
all with us In their hearts. We want
belllgerancy, the right to fight as men. and
not to ba called bandits because we do so.
When Porflrlo Diaz was a revolutionist
he fought Ukl a bandit and worse "
De Lara Cioea to Jail.
"Mexico Is a friendly nation," Interrupted
an alderman, and no one doubted his word.
Then De Lara made the theatrical play
that landed him In jail. Thowlng out his
chest 'and extending hia arms In an attl-.
tude of. submission, he cried: "It I have
not free speech, take me to Jail. Take me
to Jail or let me finish what 1 have begun."
He was allowed to finish.
He told of the American revolution
against England, of the United States, of
the Texaa and Cuban belligerents, and how
Franca helped the United States against
England. "Why doea the United States
not now recognize the Mexican revolu
tionists?" he exclaimed.
"The law glvea me permission to speak
and I do not need to ask. Thank God,
speech la free. I will speak a little later
or be atopper by bruital force."
Descending from the table De Lara
started for the point where he Intended to
speak, when he was stopped by the chief
of police. The chief told him he must not
speak again as he was only harming hla
cause.
"But I am going to apeak," said De Lara.
"You are not," growled (he chief.
"I am," replied De Lara, "and you might
aa well arrest me now."
He was placed under arrest and three
officers on either side of him escorted him
to the 'bull pen" of the Jail while the
crowd yelled, "Viva, viva Da Lara," and
threw stones at the policemen. -
After Da Lara, had been thrown Into
durance vile mora than-100 Mexican women
marched to the 'Jail and demanded hla re
lease. This waa denied and the women
left tha Jail In orderly fashion.
The crowd etlll bung about the Jail' and
from time to time soma patriot would get
up and speak .a few words before the
mounted police could cr.arge down the
street like Russian Cossacks and dispel

WASHINGTON. April 15. - Sweeping
powers are conferred upon the chairmen
