Terrible Ruffertnsr Cnnseil.
MEXICO CITY, Feb. 18 (By Courier
to Vera Crux, Feb. 18.) All the horrors
of a bombardment have been experienced
by the residents of thlas city for many
days and to those that might be expected
havo been added the effects of vicious
machine guns and rifle fire tn the street'!
at ft range some times less than ICQ
yards.
Scarcely a district of the capital has
escaped Injury. Over and through every
quarterat some time shells have torn and
screeched and exploded. Little round
shells from the automatic pompoms have
udded to the terror and destruction.
Hundreds of buildings attest by their
hole-marked sides and wrecked Interiors
the destructive qualities of modarn ar
tillery. How many have been kilted ot wounded.
Is a question none .can aneswer with any
exactitude. It Is doubtful whether even
the government records wiU ever reveal
the correct number.
Two )Ttioawint KUlffl.
From a source usually considered care
ful and conservative It has been stated
that the; number otfdcnd Is not less than
2,000, wtylo the JoJaI of the wounded
amounts to from 8,00010 10,000. The great
majority Vf these aro not soldiers, but'
men, women and children unable to es
cape the line of fire, This estimate was
made after hearing the reports of scores
of officers of the White and lied Cross
societies and o the hospitals.
It Is a welt known (act that detach
ments of fifty and 100 men have been
tlaughtcred liere and thero at various
times when caught In the narrow streets
and mowed down by the machine guns.
Carts piled high with bodies have been
seen to be driven past a certain point to
a spot In the outskirts ot the city, where
the bodies have been burned.
Every morning may be seen what ap
pear In the xone of the actual fight to be
piles ot burning rubbish, Theso heaps
are for the most part rubbish, but the
odor of burning flesh telts another story.
A practical, though gruesome, method
has been utilised In one place. The gns
escaping from a broken main has been
lighted and thsre In that steady flame
has been Improvised a crematory.

In the basement ot an apartment house

West Virginia Law
Makers Are Called
Before Grand Jury
CHAItLKSTOWN, W. Va.. Feb. 18
Members of the West Virginia legislature
testified today before the special grand
Jury investigating charges of allrgcd
bribery in connection with the United
Htates senatorial campaign, but there was
no word from tho grand Jury room as to
when a report might bo expected. Fail
ure of the Jury to report last night wh
taken to moan that the Investigation nad
gone much further than was generally
expected.
Interest centered on tho senatorial olec.
tlon. It was said at the state house tnat
supporters of IClklns, Edwards and Hun
bard, three of the leading republican can
didates, had determined that tho chotco
for senator should be mode In a state
wide primary, while tho friends of Isaac
T. Mann, the other leading candidate,
wero equally determined to hnvc the se
lection made in caucus tonight.
Thero aro only three moro days of life
left to tho legislature, and because of the
number of Important appropriation Mi's
to. be passed and the desire to redeem
campaign pledges In tho enactment of
progressive legislation It was said there
was little probability of tho legislature
Investigating the bribery charges at tnls
session. However, a, special session may
be called, and It that course Is adopted
Is was predicted the many mysteries
surrounding the entire matter will be laid
bare, as the legislature will have no
other business before It.
Charges against William Seymour Ed
wards, one otj'the republican candidates
tor United States senator, that he had
tried to 1 buy the voto' of a member of
the legislature were dismissed today by
Justice Gilchrist, before whom the war
rant for Edwards' arrest last week jvcs
sworn out.

WASHINGTON. Feb. lS.-8crretary
Knox told President Taft and tho cabinet
today that notwithstanding nil the fierce
fighting In tho city of Mexico, for tho
last eight days, thero had been no In
fraction of the rules of civilized warfare,
or of the principles of International law
as would Justify any Interference by tho
United State. The responsiveness of
both President Madero and General Diaz,
hn said, to tho suggestions of Ambas
sador Wilson. In tho capacity as dean
of the diplomatic corns In the Mexican
capital, have been so complete and satis
factory ns to Justify officials, In their
opinion, for the strictly noutral attitude
observed by the United States.
It was notod that yesterday tho federal
batteries which threatened to draw the
fire of the rebels upon the legation quar
ter were promptly removed by General
Huerta upon the. request of the ambassa
dor, who also has been given the largest
powers and freedom of movement In ex
tending old to Americans and other for
eigners within the fighting line.
Kuropenn Powers Approve.
Apparently the policy adopted by the
United States In dealing with tho Mexi
can situation has met with the unquali
fied approval of the European powers.
During the last week Secretary Knox
has talked with several of tho ambassa
dors. In no instance has there been a
disposition to criticise tho administra
tion for not Intervening.
It was declared by administration offi
cials today that thero was no Inconsist
ency between tho entertainment of this
purpose of nonintervention and tho steady
progress of tho movements of concentra
tion of ships, soldiers and marines for
the last twenty-four hours, and that
theno measures are not designed to meet
existing conditions In Mexico, but only
to guard against the possibility of unex
pected and graver conditions that might
place the safety ot foreigners In Mexico
quite oeyond the ability of the defacto
government of tho country to Insure
More Orders Probable.
It Is expected that ns a further de
velopment In tho program of prepared
ness there will be additional orders Issued
for the preparation for transportation of
at loast two moro cavalry regiments now
In Texas and several companies of coo-"t
artillery Intended to be used as Infantry
in the first stages of an expedition, and
later an garriBons for nny fortification
that might meet any possible demand for
naval force cither afloat or on shore on
short notice.
.tinny Mexicans Killed.
A largo number of Mexican fedprnla
have been killed during heavy fighting
In the vicinity of tho American ombassv
at Mexico City. Many bullets have en
tered tho embassy building, but only
light damage has been done.
Although federal firing was vltrorous
throughout yesterday, Ambassador Wil

that It had Inflicted anv damaire to th

to outer uuuaiDgs and many people wore
killed.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Feb. 18. -(Special.) Tho
senate this morning spent most of the
session in committee of tho whole, or
dering five bills for engrossment and
third Madlnir, recommitting two and
sending another to a special committee
consisting of Dodgo and Ileynolds to bo
fixed up so it would bo presentable. Tho
voting machine law was ordered repealed.
Tho bill which occupied mosct of the
time this morning wan a bill by Dodgp
regulating political advertising In news
papers. Tho bill makes It a misde
meanor to chargo a politician more for
advertising than Is charged tho common
everyday advertlsor. Dodge thought that
the bill ought to bo passed as a protec
tion to the man who might want to run
for office.
Mncfarland. also from Douglas, said
that tho press of the state was a public
Institution and should bo regulated. Ho
felt quite sure that If a corporation took
a full page advertisement and paid more
for It than tho regular rato It was liable
to Influence the polloy of tho editorial
page.
Placek of Saunders opposed the bill bo
causo he did not think tho legislature had
any right to step in and say what n news
paper publisher should charge for his own
space. If thoy wanted to charge a man
threo times for announcing his candidacy
for an office they ought to bo allowed to
do mi. He caused a laugh by saying:
'If tho nowspapcrs had charged some of
us senators so much that wo could not
havo afforded to run for tho senate It
would have been a good thing for us."
When a F. 178, a bill Introduced by
Hoagland of Lincoln, came up for dis
cussion, Placek of Saunders offered nn
amendment which did not mcft with th
approval of tho Lincoln county statesman
and ho suggested that If tho amendment
carried thnt It would ho well to substitute
tho namo of Placek as the author of the
bill. Placek was game and Immediately
milled to his nmendment that his own
name bo placed In substitution to that of
tho senator from Lincoln. Tho senate
saw tho Joke nnd Immediately endorsed
tho amendment unanimously, which prac
tically changed tho effect of the bill.

Luckily for the state the senato com

men wore happily near the scene when
the flro was discovered. Pulling their
coats they rushed to tho sceno and In a
short time the conflagration wns sub

( From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Fob. 1C. (Special.) Tho
Omaha water district bill fight is now
transferred from thesonate to the house
and Douglas senators are spending more
time than formerly with tho Sherlockos.
The point of difference between the
Douglas senators is that little word "Im
mediately" adjacent referring to whore
water not bought from Omaha may be
used. The senators agree that no persons
or corporation should be permllttcd to
sell water. Tho point Is the stock yards
company ban a water plant said to bo at
least one-half mile from Its yards. Under
tho amendment prepared by Mr. Howell
and adopted by tho senate It Is a ques
tion whether this company will be ablo
to pump Its own water. Senator Mnc
farland Is of the opinion It could, but
nevertheless ho wants that amendment
changed so It will not be necessary for
the company to havcto go to the courts
tn put lt rlcrhtn.
Macfarland Is preparing a letter tolthe
World-Herald in answer to an editorial
on the water qeustlon published In that
papor. Senator Macfarland says the edi
torial said tho stock yards was getting
water at actual cost of pumping by tho
city nnd yet further down In the article
It says tho city would lose so many thou
sand dollars If this company pumped Its
own water.
"That la not consistent," said Macfar
land.
"Besides, If tho old water company fur
nished the sotck yards water at 4 cents.
you can rest assured, It made money out
of It."
