ment for Murder in
Lesser Degree.

once Carman in all probability will
know by noon to-morrow whethi
?mm on the rhar?.. o
inc shot Mr?. Louise Bajley 01 w
she i? t.i leave Mine?la jail ;. free

r.. night Di * riel "ittori
said he expected the grand jury to bs
ready to report its finding befon
bou;-, a.^,i hi di ni hu indictmei i
will be returned. He has said sa much
to hia saaociates an.] intimai?, friends.
In Freepoii and M?nenla the belief
i? pcncral that Mrs. Carman will be
indice?;. Her indictment was practi?
cally admitted by Dr Csrman, quali
tied, however, by the proviso that it
would result if he i- nol sllowed to
testify before the prand jury.
But ' ?.* considered p.'
that Mu, 1'srmsii will be indicted for
murder in the first degree. The cener.il
opinion ?a that the indictment will
charge her either with murder in the
? ! degree or first degi. e
, slaughter.
From those who should know comes
the statement that the juror? are di?
vided in their own minds as to how
serious a charge .should be mad?*
against her, and there is pood reason
to b.lieve that an indictment, if re?
turned, will be in the nature of a com?
promise.
'the Tribune'? corrr-pondent can ?ay
that the District Attorney, while con?
vinced that Mrs. Carman fired the latal
bullet, doe? not believe there was any
premeditation about the act. Mr.
Smith bas a preat deal of sympathy for
her, and would be well satisfied with an
indictment charpir.p murder in a lesser
?
Stale Sprint.*? Surprise.
The prosecu'ion sprang the second of
a series of surprises yesterday when it
put Frank ?'. Farrell before th" .:
jury, a witness whose r?.al story hardly
had been more than guessed at bi
Farrell's account of what he saw on
the nipht Mr.-. Bailey was killed cor?
roborated in every detail where 'he
my touched the story told yes?
terday by Cells Coleman. In the opin?
ion of the District Attorney, it clinched
beyond possible doubt the indictment.
Farrell made a pood witness, and
when be left the jury room Mr. Smith
turned loose his third surprise for the
defence. It came in hi? announcement
? ning witnesses. He aaid ? ?
wood T. Bardes, whose testimony
inquest practically caused Mr I n
man's arrest, would not be called. He
further asserted he would no' cull Mrs.
Ids Powell, Mrs. Carman's sister, nor
Elizabeth Carman, her daughter, nor
Mr. and Mrs. I'latt Conklin, her mother
and father.
Mr. Smith struck a ?*.ill harder blow
at the defence or, at least, it was con?
sidered a? such by them by stating
that Mrs. (arman herself would not be
permitted to testify before the grand
jury.
The best that Mr. Smith could be
persuaded to do by her counsel was to
say he would not object strongly to
Mr Caiman going before the jury to?
morrow and making a statement II?
will not permit her to be ?worn; he
will not a?k her a single question; he
will not, if he can prevent it. permit a
juror to question her. She mav mak*?
or read any statement ?h? pleases, but
r.othinp more. That is hia ultimatum.
Defence Lets Hard Bl?m.
Mr. Levy, counsel for Mr?. Carman
and Dr. Carman, at once began to ce??
ir? their effort? upon gcttinp Mrs. Car?
man before the grand jury. She h I
prepared a petition in her cell
the jurors to let her appear before
them. IK wat rushed over to th?
prand jury room. It was lead by the
grand jury and a' ..* EC became a centre
heated debate Some jurors
thought the offer should be accepted
that she ahould be questioned by the
District Attorney and themselvc
Mr. Smith argued that if th; ua
permitted there would be a grave m ic
lion a. i?. whether he would not ob?

EX-DICTATOR'S HAVEN UNKNOWN
Vivas for Him When Resignation Is Read to Deputies?
Entire Cabinet Resigns?Blanquet and Ex-Ministers
in Fleeing Party Guarded by Troops.
? .
Mexico City. July 15.?Krancisco Carbajal 15 Provisional
President of Mexico.
General Muerta. General felanquct and the ex-ministers of
Public Instruction and Communications, vvith other officials and
friends of the Huerta adminitsration, left the city late to-night,
boarding a train on the Mexican Railway a few miles beyond the
city, tt was thought they are bound for Puerto Mexico.
The party has the option of several destinations, and the exact
point for which they are bound is being kept secret.
The resignation of Victoriano Huerta, expectantly awaited
since last week, was read to the Chamber of Deputies at 5 p. m.
and referred to a committee, adjournment being taken to await
its report.
The Chamber resumed its session at 5:30 o'clock, when Sec?
retary Guasque read the committee's report recommending that
Huerta's resignation he accepted and that Francisco Carbajal,
Minister of Foreign Affairs, be summoned to take the oath of
office as Huerta's successor to the Provisional Presidency. The
bill was put to vote as a whole and carried by 121 ayes against
17 noes.
The first official announcement of the coming resignation de?
clared "that, actuated by highest motives of patriotism and com?
plying with supreme duty to his country, President Huerta will
send his resignation to Congress at 4 o'clock this afternoon."
The transfer of executive power was effected without dis?
order and comparatively, little excitement. Huerta did not appear
in person, but presented his resignation through the Department
of Foreign Relations.
Nevertheless, his name was acclaimed when his reasons for
giving up the office to which he had clung so tenaciously were
read. From the galleries, filled with spectators, and from the
Deputies themselves on the floor of the Chamber came shouts of
"Viva Huerta!" when his few adherents argued against acceptance
of his resignation and defended his administration.
Carbajal, clad in evening dress and calm and self-possessed
in demeanor, was sworn into the office of Provisional President
at 7:20. He. too. was greeted with vivas, although the attituri??
of the populace was marked by sobriety and the presence of the
soldiers guarding the streets, the Chamber of Deputies and the
National Palace seemed unnecessary.
Immediately after being sworn in President Carbajal was
escorted to the National Palace by troops, crowds in the streets
cheerintr him.
"I'LL NOT SPARE
HIM," SAYS VflJJ
Chief Declares if HuerU
Falls Into His Hands Exe?
cution Will Be Instant.
El Taso. Tex . July 15. "If \
toriano Huerta fnlls into my hands
?rill execute him ?viihoni rarl.
'??id General Francisco Villa to-night
in rtply to a question from the Trio
une correspondent,
"That ii ? matter that is in th?
hands of ?ho supreme chief," laid
Villa, when to!.I that Carranza ha.J
given assurances regarding ?he spar?
ing of ?he life of prisoners if Mexico
City ?? surrendered ??> the Constitu?
tionalists "If Huerta is made B nr; -
oner or surrenders," Villa con)
"I presume that he will he given a
trial, That is also a matter that the
chie;' nn.l 'he military , hiefs will have
to dec!?'. 1 can speak onlv for my?
self. 1 would not spare Huerta if he
fell into my hands a prisoner or other?
wise."
Asked what ??ill he the fate of Fed?

i.mis and remain in Mexico ( ity, Villa
answered ;
"Inlets they na\e had connection

of the pa?t they ??ill not >>e molested
??o far as I am concerned. If they
were connected with the bloody deeds
of Huerta in his main .i lassinationi
they will have to pay the penalty"
The sudden hut not unexpected turn
of affairs at the national capital led to
??peculation regarding ?vhat troops of
the Constitutionalists \?ould he the
to ent( r Mexiee City. The forces
under General Aguilar and Obregon
are neare t the coal of the (arnm/a
