Puis Journals Intimate That the
United States is Afraid to In

Policy Criticised
ECHO DE PARIS HAS
KNOCK FOR BRYAN
Undertakes Task of Explaining
American Conditions for the
Benefit of Secretary
P4RSS, Nov. 11.—That Japan Is
backing Mexico In her belligerent at
titude towards the United Hiates and
that the latter country Is “afraid of
Mexico” are some of the intimations
constantly finding expression here.
•‘The Stars and Stripes triumphed
over Spain In Cuba a few years ago,”
Alcoste declared in “La Patrlo,” but
to lick Mexico would be a horse of
mother color. Dollars don’t count:
ofleers and men are necessary and
tboee the united States haven’t
got. To think of even matching Mex
ico, much leas conquering her, un
der present conditions would be pure
folly, especially If what is said be
true, that Japan stands back of Mex
ico.”
Americans living in Psris find it
hard to understand the attitude of the
French press on the American policy
in Mexico unless they accept the ex
planation given by the Mexican con
stitutionalists here who assert that
the Huerta government has spent
9300,000 to create in the newspapers
anti-American articles. They point
out that Japan had the sympathy of
Europe when she immediately threat
ened war on China because three Jap
anese were killed st Nanking In the
i lash between government troops and
rebels, yet Americans have beCn In
sulted. killed and mistreated all over
a lon* period In Mexico. Oeraldo
Murillo, editor of “The Mexican Revo
lutloa” printed here as the organ of
tkh constitutionalists, told the corre
spondent: “It (s only fair to .say that
President Wilson has shown repark
aWe forebearance. Had Mexleohsea
lit Barone the great powers of the old
WOP»< vftfcUd hhva- Intervened long
ago*" iays the "Bcho de ono
tt the most serious of. the French
mbrnlng papers:
“President Wilson has declared that
he le ‘unalterably opposed to aay gov
ernment In Mexico irregularly estab
lished’ by ambitious politicians. Why
has the new president so declared
himself? His declaration really means
that Mexico is to be turned over to
anarchy or else is to suffer from the j
unfriendliness of the United States. |
Is President Wilson merely ignorant,
of American conditions? On the part j
of his secretary of state, M. Bryan,
all the Ignorances are possible.
“All’ hypothese are permissible, but ]
this ts certain: All roads In the Unit
ed States lead to Intervention. Strong-|
er than the words of politicians is an;
»rrest stable force inclining the United
States toward the absorption of Mex
ico and Central America.”

PITTSBURGH, Pa„ Nov. 11.—
Lashed today by a.50-mlle gale this
city was the jumping off place for
the tail end of the big storm, accord
ing to weather officials here. The
snow stopped falling when it had
piled up 15 Inches, but more snow
late today was the forecast.
Washington. Pa.. 30 miles southwest
of this city, felt the tuil fury of the
storm. Thero a howling gale swept
the snow into drifts 15 and 20 feet
high, blew down telephone and tele
graph poles, caused at least one death
and much .suffering. Two trains with
a total of 300 passengers were stalled
there. Aboard one of them on the
Washington A Waynesburg line was
United Slates Senator Cummins, of
lowa. Returning presumably from a
Visit to his old home at Waynesburg,
ho was caught in a deep cut with 100
others. After the entire party, from
the Senator to two foreign laborers,
had shoveled snow for hours to keep
warm, four heavy wagons from the
Wildam Coursin farm got through the
drifts and took them to shelter.
The other train, with 200 pas
sengers, was still stalled early today.
Prospects for digging it out of the
drift before noon were slight, rail
road officials declared. Two engines
sent to its assistance were derailed
and blocked the tracks.
Numerous reports of trains off the
tracks and burled ' in snow drifts
reached this city.
Three trains on the Cleveland &
Pittsburgh railrond snowed in north
of Akron. Ohio, with 400 passengers,
were cleared this morning for Pitts
burgh after a holdup of more than
12 hours.
The total fall was 16 1-2 Inches.
Snowbound trains en route to Wheel
ing were said to have been cleared,

to elrht hours late. Thousands were

PALMA SHOOTING

SUSPECTS WHO FIGURED
THEN ARE ARRBBTKD
»■
' Former Detective Shot in Office
Through Window—Has Bare
Chance to Live
Gerdlnand Palma, king of Detroit’s
Little Italy, former detective, then
padrone, or employer of contract la
bor, and later proprietor of two
banks, steamship ticket agejU. and
Importer of Italian delicacies, was al*
j moat riddled with leaden slugs from
ja sawed-off shotgun, placed
the window of his banking house at
1 No. 368 Monroe-ave., shortly after 6
o'clock, Monday evening.
'Eleven of the slugs entered his
breast, two struck him in the neck,
one iu the chin, and five pierced his
left hand.
Palma, as is characteristic of Ital
ians who figure in gun play, told the
detectives who were rushed to the
scene .that he did not know who shot
him, but the five wounds in his left
hand are significant. They tell a story
of a face at the window, of a leveled
shotgun, of. perhaps, a call, to make
the padrone turn' round and receive
the leaden hail.
Palma gald that the man waited un
til he turned around, y The riddled
left hand indicates a fokf knowledge
of this hail of lead, and of the intui
tive action of raising a hand in a vain
. act of protection.
i But Palma says that he does not
know who shot him.
Dozens of Italians, shot down in
| the street, in gambling rooms, at the
.doors of their,own homes, have said
'the same thing. If they recovered,
| there were more shootings, and the
i police would remark. “A sequel to
affair over on Blank-st.“
Even while Palma was a detective
of the central bureau, he was a king
among the Italians. They told their
secrets to him. if to anvone. They
would shake their heads if questioned
bv another nolice officer. “I talk to
Ml«'i Palm.” they would say.
Police declare that the Palma
shooting Is a sequel: nerhaps to many
j affairs, almost certainly to one. That
! one Is the shooting affray at Fort and
Hastlmrs-sts., when three Italians In
a covered motor car, patrolled the
••or ner until the Italian they “want*

dience of Bitter Fight for
Cause in Britain
Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, a fraU,
motherly-looking woman, beid the
wrapt attention of n large audience
In the Light Guard armory, for two
hours, Monday night. Those who saw
and heard for the first time that wo
man. known throughout the world as
the lender of the militant suffragists
in England, and at whose word wom
en became law-breakers and destruo
tioniata, were surprised.
“So that le Mrs. Pankhurst,” waa a
remark that was repeated again and
again while the armory wae filling
up with men and women. Dressed in
a simple black gown, the little wo
man ant at the speakers’ table on the
platform and calmly returned the
gase qf the spectators. At her Lett
sat Map. Clara B. Arthur, chairman
of the meeting, and the Rev. Eugene
R. Shippeu, who delivered the intro
ductory address. Th eaudlencs that
listened patiently and attentively to
word that Mrs. Pankhurst had
.to say, wae composed of men and
women of nil classes. Women tn cost*
ly silks and furs rubbed with
shop girls, and many professional asm
as well at those ojf tffffrttborlng
classes were fin the audleaoe.
i«rs. Pankhurst was given a hearty
welcome when ehe mounted the pin*
form. One man, white-haired end
wearing nose glasses, essayed to lead
a cheer. He was flanked by two wom
en who apparently were enthusiastic
suffragists. • Encouraged by their
glove patter, the elderly man gave
two “hurrahs,” then his face redden
ed and he sat back In his chair, con
tenting himself with hand-clapping
like the rest.
! On the poorly lighted stage and
against that background of horrible,
blurry red —the old red curtain that
has hung behind the stage elnce the
day the armory waa built —it waa
difficult for the people In the audi
ence to study the face of the famous
militant leader.
In repose, Mrs. Hank burst’* face
looked hard and marked by lines of
determination rather than gentleness.
It was only after ehe began to tell ot
the struggle for equal suffrage that
Is going on in Britain, that radiant
smiles Illuminated her face, and the
harsh lines were erased. Her mag
netic personality was at once felt, and
to the American sympathiser It was
easy to conceive how this little grey*
haired—woman, with the winsome
smile and the gentle voice, could
urge hundreds of women on to deeds
that would test the courage of* a
knight of old.
Mrs. Pankhurst possesses a won
derful voice. It ie not musical, nor
is it metallic in tone. She speaks in
a comparatively low, well-modulated
voice, but every word rings as clearly
as a bell. She seldom raises or in
flects her voice, using her hands for
/ill expression of emotion. In her
talk, when she wanted to emphaalke
a point, she brought her right hand,
clenched, down upon her open left
palm like a trip-hammer. She spoke
