ONE CAR IS RUN LESS
THAN A MILE

INDIANAPOLIS STREET CAR TIE UP IS SO
COMPLETE THAT ONLY ONE CAR IS
MOVED AND THAT IS SOON DESERTED
BY STRIKE BREAKERS.
J. F. FIELDER,
Democratic Candidate for Governor ef
New Jersey Elected by Over
22,000,
Indianapolis, Nov. 5.-The first
street car to be moved since the trac
tion employes strike was called Fri
day night, waB deserted in the streets
today after strike breakers had run it
less than a mile through a constant
hail of bricks. One strike breaker
was taken from the car badly hurt.
Four other strike breakers and a num
ber of patrolmen were less seriously
hurt by the downpour of missiles that
came from roofs and windows fr.om
the time the car left the barns until
it was abandoned. Conditions . be
came so dangerous for the strike
breakers that they lay down on the
floor of the car and after a few min
utes as a sign of surrender, threw the
controller and all their arms into the
street They were taken in charge by
strikers and policemen and later tak
en to jail. '
The car was almost Entirely '.Wreck
ed. When the car left the barns no
policemen were on it, but it was sur
rounded by patrolmen on foot and
mounted.
The conference which began early
in the day between the peace authori
ties, still was in session when the
rioting took place.
Thomas Carlton, the union chauf
feur who was shot during a fight at
the Louisiana street car barns late
Monday, died at the city hospital to
day. This makes the fourth death as
a result of the strike.
' Washington, D. C, Nov. 5. -Another
compromise currency plan, framed to
reconcile widely divergent views on
the administration currency bill, was
put forward today by Senator Reed
today in the senate banking commit
tee, when it resumed work.
Senator Reed proposed that twenty
four regional banks be created with
stock owned by banks and the banks
to elect a majority of directors. His
plan would provide that, instead of
keepiug seven per cent reserve in its
own vaults or in the regional banks
and five per cent in the regional bank,
each member bank should keep four
per cent in its vaults, four in the re
gional bank and four in a general
fund to be controlled by the federal
reserve board in Washington. The
plan seemed to meet considerable fa
vor. The committee expeciea 10 vuib
some today on the abstract proposi
tion of creating some sort of a central
gold reserve in Washiugton. The pro
posal to call a Democratic caucus was
making little headway.

CLUDES HIS ARGUMENT THIS AFTER

INDICTMENT IS
FOUND AGAINST
ROSWELL MAN
St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 5. Counsel
for defense in the government's suit
to dissolve the International Harves
ter company shortly before noon to
day concluded their final arguments
before the U. S. district court, and At
torney General McReynolds prepared
to sum up for the federal side begin
ning at. 2 o'clock.
John P. Wilson of Chicago, in con
cluding for the defense did not de-
maud acquittal but asked that the
court dismiss the case without preju
dice to either side, thus reserving to
the government the right to intervene
at any time in the future.
Attorney General McReynolds con
cluded his argument at 3 o'clock this
afternoon. He asked the court to en
ter an interlocutory decree declaring
the Harvester company a monopoly.
He then asked that when such decree
had been entered, the defendants be
given reasonable time to submit a
plan of reorganization.
Edgar A. Bancroft, of Chicago, gen
eral counsel for the Harvester com
pany, concluded his address with a
review of the trade conditions from
Washington, D. C, Nov. ". Tile
French ambassador here, M. Jusser
and, has received no instructions from
his government to take any steps to
ward mediation between the T'nited
Stales and Mexico, though the embas
sy would be the natural channel for
such steps.
If the French government were to
decide to use its good offices at this
stage, the usual procedure would be
for Ambassador .lusserand to sound
Secretary Bryan to learn first whether
such overtures would be favorably re
ceived. An inflexible determination of Pres
ident Wilson to accomplish the retire
ment of Huerta has been made known
to the powers watl enough to assure
that any proposal of mediation doubt
less would be based on that under
standing and would be shaped to
ward composing the situation in a way
that Huerta himself .might be dlis- j
posed to accept. Some officials fuel
that other steps may develop before a
tangible move might be made toward
mediation.
The scout cruiser Chester, at the
Philadelphia navy yard was ordered
today to prepare to sail for Vera Cruz
Immediately. The Chester is not a
heavy fighting ship but swift and val
uable for dispatch and scout duty. Of
lighter draft than the big warships
now at Vera Cruz, she will be able to
join the smaller craft In shore.
The Chester is the highest power
wireless ship in the navy. With her
apparatus, Washington and Vera Cruz
will be in direct touch constantly by
medium of the great wireless towers
at Arlington. The unofficial view is
that the Chester is being sent to Vera
Cruz principally as a means of instant
and official communication."'
Secretary Daniels explain) that
the dispatch of fhe Chester was part
of his plans to substitute cruisers for
tne heavier battleship In Mexican
wpters so that the laiter might resume
practice and maneuvers. The change,
he said, would be made gradually.
The Chester, on account of her light
draft, is especially adapted to service

tection of foreigners at Tampico or
other Mexican gulf ports, which can
not be closely approached by the larg

reach Vera Cruz by next Monday ev
ening of Tuesday morning.
Loading the Chester.
Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 5. After or
ders were received at the navy yard
for the Chester to sail the work of
loading her was begun. It was said
this afternoon that the ship will take
aboard 1,400 tons of coal, 2,000 rounds
of 3-inch shells and 500 rounds of fl
inch shells; also machine and field
guns. The Chester will have a crew
of 350 men.
No Epidemic at Guaymas.
San Diego, Cal., Nov. 5. There were !
no indications of an epidemic at Guay
mas when the American navy collier
Nan Shan left the Mexican port a
short time ago. The Nan Shan arrived
here today enroute to San Francisco
and Captain Prideaux reported that
the federals were in complete control
of the city when he departed. The
Nan Shan brought three American ref
ugees. Ready to Move.
Nogales, Ariz., Nov. 5. Officers
commanding the United States troops
on border patrol here received orders
today to prepare equipment for field

Chicago, 111., Nov. 5. Orders for
the transfer of the fifteenth cavalry to
El Paso, Texas, were modified today
so that the squadrons may arrive at
their destination on the same day. To
this end the troops at Fort Myer will
entrain next Monday; those at Fort
Sheridan on Tuesday and those at
Fort Leavenworth on Wednesday, No-

Verdict That Suits Is Found.
Mexico City, Mex., Nov. ij. Alien
lets declared today not responsible for
his act, Enrique Zepada, a close rela

and former governor of the federal
district, who while in office, entered
the Belem prison on March 27, last
aud caused the murder of Major
Gabriel Hernandez, a commandant of
rural guards, under the Madero ad
ministration.
Zepada took a squad of mounted po
lice to the prison where Hernandez
was a political prisoner, ordered him
out and had him riddled with bullets
by the police. Zepada then had fire
wood piled in (he prison court yard
and the body of Hernandez burned.
The report of the alienists has been
laken under advisement by the civil
judge, who, it Is expected, will liberate
Zepada. A former decision by the
alienists against Zepada was set aside
a month ago and a new inquiry was
ordered.
