NO ENVOYS TO REBEL LEADER fttated at White Iloimc Hiiro? jfot . Sent in Border tn Dlicnin r the Situation tilth 1 Carrtiiisn, MEXICO CITY, Nov. 6.-The purposes of General liuerta were voiced this morn ing by a person who Is close to the pro visional president. The president Is de termined to reject all the demands set forth In the latest American communica tion and is resolved to scat tho congress jjust elected. If congress, however, declares the re cent presidential election null and void and makes arrangements Tor another elec tion, General Huerta would be disposed ko abide by this decision and submit to the people's choice ot a man who would weeupy the presidency until the autumn Of 1916. White House Announcement. WASHINGTON. Nov. 6. Word came lirora the White House today that no 'developments in the Mexican situation, good, bad or Indifferent, had followed the announcement of President Huerta that the United States wished him to resign. Those who had any doubt about the press dispatches from Mexico City de scribing tho last representations mode to General Huerta had the situation clarl Tied for them to an extent today by ad ministration officials. From the White House It became known that the views of the United States upon the recent election In Mexico were set forth In n cablegram to Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the charge d'affaires of the American em bassy at Mexico City. This cablegram contained certain "instructions." The nature of the instructions was not dl ivulged by the officials. It was recalled 'that when the negotiations began with I the Huerta government no f tonal note was presented but "Instructions" were Liven John LInd. n this way formal recognition of the liuerta government i "Was 'avoided. - Last Word Mar Not Maid. From the way White House officials discussed the situation, there existed no loubt In official circles tonight that the Instructions to Mr. O'Shaughnessy to convey the desires of the United States to General Huerta were substantially as outlined in dispatches from Mexico City last Monday, although the Stute depart ment dental that any "ultimatum" had been sent was regarded by many con ersant with the situation as lndtcatlr; that the United States government n its communication to Mr. O'Shaughnessy did not necessarily mean that It had said Its last word. It became evident at the White House that the president considered the elec tions of October 26 not only Invalid as to the vote on the presidency and vice ptesldency, but also as to the election of members of congress. The news dis patches indicated today General Huerta -would convene the newly elected congress and abide by Ha decision as to the le gality of the elections. This was gen erally looked upon hero as showing 'an Intention on the part of General Huerta to have the election, nullified while, he continued In power Indefinitely. The president made" It plain to callers he had no Intention at present "of placing the subject before congress, though he Is In close touch with the capltol through Chairman Bacon .of the stnate foreign relations committee. It Is not regarded as likely that tho president will make any move until he hears from General Huerta through Charge O'Shaughnessy. (Continued on Page Two.)

The name of Mendel Bellls, the man standing trial for the alleged murder of the Christian boy, Andrew Yushlnsky, In March, 1911, was barely mentioned In the closing speech of counse' for the prosecution today. This was rtmarked by those present In court as the same thing happened when counsel dellvcicd his opening speech on the in dictment. Toward the end of his address today, however, the prosecutor expressed his profound conviction that Bellls was guilty and remarked th the accused had been seen dragging young Yushlnsky toward the brick furnace, where Bellls was em ployed. He addedi "Mendel Bellls possibly was an excel lent father and avlrtuous man, who lived modestly and was certainly religious, but doer this" 1preClCRTethPtt9IWnt'' the perpetration by him of a crime which, from his standpoint, was not a crime? He regards himself as an expiatory vic tim of his co-rellsionlsts." Counsel for tho prosecution then dwelt on the subject of the clay found on young Tushinsky's clothing., which, he said, resembled that of the Boll near the stable where the prosecution believes tlu murder was committed and where Mrs. Beilis went to live, after the arrest of her husband. The stable was white washed before the visit of Krassovsky. the detective, and was burned down three days before the arrival ot the magis trate In charge of the preliminary inves tigation Counsel for the prosecution argued that the only medical and mental expert testi mony worthy of credence was that brought forward by the prosecution. He especially-mentioned Prof. Slborskl, who, he mild, "notwithstanding Illness and his Knowledge of the storm that would burst on him, had not feared to come Into court und testify that the crime had been com mitted by Jewish fanatics with the object of obtaining blood." Omaha Exchange Files Complaint Against Railroads WASHINGTON.

Through Joint rates not in ex cess of those to certain other named IKilnts are asked. The complaint filed with the lnterxtu.tr Commerce commission by the Omaha Grain exchange Is the direct outgrowth of a similar complaint filed two years ago. The grain exchange compluLns that the Northern Pacific and Chicago, Bur lington & Qulncy roads are charging more for grain to bo hauled from Mon tana to Omaha, Council Muffs and b'outh Omaha than to Minneapolis, the mileage being praotleally equal. The rates are for grain hauled from points west of Billings. American Squadron Passes Gibraltar GIBRALTAR. Nov. 6.

Incidentally numerous legal minds are discussing the poselblllty of making the rules a little more strict in regard to the actions ot a notary who Is supposed to know the person for whom he or she exe cutes a paper.

The party from Hunter, Kan., had been visiting relatives at Avoca, la., and were returning to their home. They were six miles out on the Dodge street road, across from the Rosenfeld Peona farm, when a huge touring car, traveling at a rapid rate, struck the smalt car contain ing Mrs. long and her party from be hind, hurling It clear from the road and up against a clump of trees.

MEETING HELD LAST EVENING Resolution Will Then Be Drawn by Friends of Thomas, ATTENDANCE IS NOW 4,100 This la he tiaricest Enrollment 4he Aseoclnllnn ISrer Knjnyed at Any Convention of the State Teachers. After resisting stubbornly all forenoon, yesterday, President James K, Deltell of the Nebraska Btate Teachers' association, melted a trifle Just before noon nnd ap pointed on his resolutions commtttoo two men who are known to have pro-Thomas leanings. They ato R. D. Morltx of Red Cloud and O. 11. Boweu ot West Point. To get a representation on the resolu tions committee Is what the Thomas fac tion has been fighting for since the open ing ot the convention. By this means they hope to have minority resolutions introduced Into the convention which are in some way to express displeasure at the way Dr. A. O. Thomas was dis missed from the hood of the Kearney normal by the State Normal board, of which State Superintendent Delcell la a member. The resolutions committee- appointed by Delrell Is as follows: A. 11. Water house, Fremont, chairman; First con gressional district, J. A. Doremus, Auburn; Second district, N. M. Graham, South Omaha; Thlld district, O. It. llowen, West Point! Fourth district, F A. Steck. David City; Fifth district, R. D. Morltz, Red Cloud; Sixth district, R, W, Pate, Alliance. This leaves the Thomas faction repre sented by two men on the resolutions committee as to five of the antl-Thomoa faction, All morning lenders of tho Thomas faction lobbied with President Deltell In the hope of getting a Thomai representation on the committee. Rvcn up to 10:30 or H o'clock the Thomas fac tion was dubious as to the possibility ol getting representation on the resolution committee. This would have meant that they would' have no chance t -get a pro Thomas reaolutlon before the convention' in the regular way that la through the resolution committee). C F. White of Camt.rldEii-qv-DaVli ot McCqoh onuV It, D. Morltx of Retf Cloud'' and others exerted every Influence In the hope bf getting Deltell to fclvo some of the Thomas faction a representation. They practically gavo Up In despair once when they could) get only the promise that Bowen of West Point might be appointed. This was not satisfactory to the Thomai faction, for although Bowen Inclines toward the Thomas faction, he did not seem disposed to make an actlre fight for Thomas resolutions. With the appointment, however, ot both Morltx and Bowen, the Thomas people are sure that these two committee mem bers wilt bring In a minority report that will favor Thomas, and thus get tho mat ter considered before the convention! The resolutions probably will not con tain the name of Dr. Thomas, as the teachers are anxious to make tho tight on the principle Involved and keep in the background as much as poaitblo any thing that would seem to make the fight center on Individuals. The resolutions are to be drawn up In language so general as to cover what will be referred to as ma chine politics In school affairs, that re sults in the summary dismissal without cauie of heads ot state ochools. The Kear ney affair and the recent Peru affair may be referred to In such language', but it la said to be very doubtful it the name of Dr. Thomas will appear in the wording of the resolutions.
