For sale by Beaton Drug Co.-Advertlss-ment NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 2.-Hmmanuel Cadtlllo Brlto, former governor of the, Mexican state of Campeche, was ar rested hcrctoday by federal authorities and held without ball, preferred by the existing Mexican authorities. A telegram purporting to have come from Attorney General Mollcynolds, va rlously declared a fake nnd genuine. In which It was requested that Brlto be ar rested, was the medium through which detectives say It G. Mathews, special ngont of tho Department of Justice; J, L. Mott, his assistant and Ernest Fer nandez, tho Carranclsta envoy, got Brlto to pay to Mathews 1500 on tho pretenco that Brlto would bo protected from ar rest StnrUeil Money Found.

It was not announced whether the government would take hold of the case or whether tho accused men would be given a hearing before a state court The men have not been allowed to give bonds. Femandex was minister from Mexico to Honduras under tho Madero administration. Brlto admitted he killed two representa tives of Huerto, who, he said, were try ing to arrest him Illegally during the re cent revolution. The former Mexican governor's appre hension came close on the heels of charges of blackmail, which resulted late last night in the arrest of two United States Department of Justice agents and representative of tho Carranza branch of Mexican revolutionist in Now Orleans. It wan charged that R. G. MatAews and J. L. Mott accepted tMW In marked bills from Brlto to protect him from arrest, the af fair having been arranged by Ernesto Fernandez, who claims to bo connected with Governor Carranza. Ilrlto Telia Story. Brito was arraigned beforo Unntted States Commlssloer Browne. He pleaded not guilty and was sent to the parish prison without ball. I Brlto declared that when the Huerta 'agents made an attempt to arrest him In Mexico ho knew their action would be followed by his death, probably under the notorious fugitive law. IIo resisted, drawing his sword. 'The Huerta agents took the sword from him and slapped him with It Thereupon, Brlto says, he drew his revolver and killed , the two mon. This was In wartime, however, and they were his enemies. This he said would be his defense In resisting deporta tion. No neqnest for Arrest. WASHINGTON, Aug. 2. State depart ment officials disclaimed today having any request from the Huerta government for Brlto's arrest The Department of Justice on a direct representation, how ever, ordered the arrest and the Huerta government If it expects .to -extradite Brito, now will have forty days In which to present Its formal case, Nothing of the merits of tho charge on which Brito Ib held is known here. Immediately on receipt of advices of the arrest of the Department of Juatlco officials in New Orleans, charged with blackmail, A. Bruce Btelaskl, chief of tho bureau of Investigation, today dispatched a special agent to Investigate. J, L. Mott, also under arrest, Is employed to watch shipments of arms and ammunition de signed for Mexico. The Department of Justice will take no action until the spe cial agent sent to Now Orleans to In vestigate has made a report Thirty Men Killed by Explosion of Gas at Pottsville, Pa.

Ambassador Wilson Has Pocket Picked NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-Henry I.ano Wil son, United States ambassador to Mexico, was the vlctom of pickpockets who se cured his wallet containing tlfS, white the ambassador was escorting two women friends to a Long Island train In Penn sylvania station yestorday, it was learned today. News of Mr. Wilson's loss became pub lic when railroad detectives, who had re ceived the ambassadors complaint had consulted with detectives from police headquarters. All parties were reticent regarding the details, but it was said that the ambassador was not greatly concerned over the Incident He had arrived from Washington during tho afternoon and af ter luncheon with a party of friends he had undertaken to escort two women In the party to the Long Island train. A large crowd passed about the gates and there was a scramblo for the train, during which tho plckpochets were evidently At work. It was not until after he had bid den his friends goodbye that Mr. Wilson discovered his loss. Thtre is no Intimation that the theft was the work of any one seeking secret papers In the ambassador's possession, but that it was simply an ordinary case of pocket picking. Ambassador Wilson today said the stolen wallet contained no offlolul papers. "I lost merely my purse." he dcolared, "and some visiting cards. The Incident Is so trivial as to be hardly worth mentioning." PROTECTORATE PLAN REJECTED BY SENATE (Continued from Page One.) "The grant by Nicaragua to the United State of a perpetual and exclusive right to build a oanal across Nicaragua, A nlnety-nlne-year lease on a naval baso site on Fonseca bay and a ninety-nlno-year lease on the Corn Island In tho Carrlbean sea. The payment by tho United States to Nicaragua of 13.000.000 tn return for these concessions. Those terms are Identical with those of the treaty as originally proposed by Sec tary Bryan, beforo ho decided to odd the amendment by which an American pro tectorate would havo been established. Tho senato committee did not definitely settle the question of future protectorates In Central America, however. It Is understood that the administration Is willing to withdraw the suggestion for the present to secure an early ratification of tho Nlcaraguan compact Ilornli I.enda Opposition. Strong opposition was led In the com mittee today by Senators Borah, Clark of Arkansas, Williams nnd others, who were opposed to any action by the United States toward tha exercise of sovereign authority 4n the Central Ameri can countries. Other senators of the committee de fended tho policy with equal vigor. A voto waa proposed to settle tho ques tion, but some senators of tho commit too refused to register a final decision at tho present time and tho proposal for a voto was withdrawn.

NO CAUSE FOR ALARM, BRYAN (Continued from Page One.) ministration's plan for deaUng with the Mexican problem. Means Non-Interference. Far from beltur regarded ary to interventlon-whlch President Wil son noa told friends on various occasions Is out of the question the request for funds Is really thought to be the fore runner of a policy of non-interference. From the first the president haa bo lleved that In crises in turbulent re publics tho single sollcltuae of the Amer ican government should bo the protec tion of lives and property. Should tha administration here adopt a policy ot non-lnterferenco it might bo well to re frain from action with respect to the destruction of property on the ground that claims for damages would, under ltternational law, eventually, cover loss'ji. The chief consideration has always been nnd will be caring for the lives of Amer icans and foreigners. In any crisis Amer icans of means on warning would bt able to flee the. country, but dangers always havo beset those who. througn lack of funds, could not make the Journey promptly. To meet sucn an emergency, the present request for an appropriation is directed. Precautionary Measure Only,,S The administration, while honrm th.t peace negotiations may bring the two' ucuons to a suspension of hostilltios, realizes that with the resignation ot Huerta or any other political change, Americans may become alarmed, aud th desire to obtain funds with which to caro for those who may be anxious to leave Mexico Is a precautionary measure. Secretory Bryan's request will corns up at tho first meeting of the house appro priation committee next week. Chair man Flood of foreign affairs committee said today he believed tho committee would vote to Include the 3100,000 appro priation in the deficiency bill. "We at least owe It to the stranded Americans In Mexico to provide means for their return In these turbulent times." said Mr. Flood. The senate foreign relations committee next Wednesday will meet to hear the views of various Mexicans, who havo been making headquarters in Washing ton slnco the constitutionalist revolution began. The matter was arranged to give a hearing to General Eduardo Hay, former speaker of tho Mexican house of deputies and a prominent constitutionalist leader. President Wilson today nominated Henry F.

Some Persons "Flinch" When Truth Hurts Them If any man is ablo to convince mo and show mo that I do not think or net right, X will gladly change, for I seek tho truth, by which no man was over In jured." 31rcus AurolitiB, Roman Emperor. 1 Somo shrink and try to close their eyes and ears to the haunting fact that the little 2YZ grains of Oaf. feine in every average cup of coffee is the demon whih relentlessly pursues and starts various ailments, such as biliousness, headache, nervousness, sleeplessness, bowel trouble, hearj; failure and a long string, of aches and ails, taking one form in one person and jinother in another. The effect of repeated doses of coffee, on those, who are susceptible to caffeine poisoning, is so .com plex that it is difficult to foretell where its hurt will be most serious; in Heart, Head, Eyes, Nerves or where. The stroke of trouble will come somewhere if the daily doses are. persisted in. Of course if anyone prefers to treat his body in that way it is useless to suggest relief. Let him "follow tho trail" until badly wounded. ,,j Some go so far they can't get back to health. Others quit tho foolish, losing game beforo fixed 1 chronic disease sets in. There is a mighty army of sensible ones, however, who have bravely tested the truth with their own bod ies to see whether or not it was the truth that coffee caused their ailments. It's an easy test. Quit coffee absolutely for 10 days. Take Postum hot and well-made and keep track of the change toward health day by day. It's tho most exquisite pleasure in tho world to be perfectly well with all the delicate and beautifully ad J. justed machinery of the body working in harmony, not ' interfered with by drugs, one of the most insidious and deceptive of which is caffeine in coffee. . This is Truth. Meet it bravely with head up and a hearty hand clasp. Truth thus made welcome will prove your best friend. Theso are facts without regard to our own opinion, or to whether or not you use Postum. However it is well to consider that famous food drink because it supplies a hot beverage of the deep seal-brown color of coffee, which turns to the rich golden-brown when cream is added. It has a snappy fluvor much like tho old-time real Java, but there is no "sting" in it, no caffeine or other dmg of any sort. It is skillfully manufactured of wheat apd a trace of New Orleans molasses. . It comes in two forms. One called Regular Postum, must bo boiled full 15 minutes. The other, Instant Postum, is in powder form and a level teaspoonful in a cup of hot water makes tho beverage instantly. Grocers keep both kinds. "There's a Reason" for POSTUM s
