CUBAN IN BIG

—
Former Birmingham Boy
Has Trouble With Alleged
Servian Soldiers
Hinton G. Clabaugh. chief of the bureau
of investigation of the department of
Justice, had a lively time in Chicago Fri
day night with Servians eti route to Can
ada to join the English forces. Clabaugh
will be remembered as a former Birming
ham boy who became prominent through
his prosecution of the Southern Whole
sale Grocers' association. He is a brother
of S. F. Clabaugh, postmaster at Tus
caloosa. The Chicago Tribune, after an
nouncing the receipt by the police of a
riot call, continues:
“Three patrol wagons loaded with re
serves swooped down on the Polk street
station. Six coaches standing on a track
under the train shed'were in an uproar
Twenty inspectors working under Hinton
O. Clabaugh. chief of the bureau of in
vestigation of the department of justice,
were having the battle of their lives.
“The coaches were fairly bursting with
shrieking, gesticulating, struggling Ser
vians. They fell over each other in the
aisles, battled with each other to reach
the doors, climbed and fell througli the
windows, and sprawl'd over the plat
forms.
“They picked themselves up to leap on
the United States deputy marshals like
so many rats. Some of the marshals were
knocked down and the men swarmed over
on top of them.
“Then the police waded in. They used
their clubs right and left, beating the men
slowly bark into the cars. Five of the
travelers, more belligerent than the rest,
were collared and hustled Into the patrol
wagon to be driven to cells. Finally the
police restored a semblance of order and
then learned where the Invading army
had come from.
“The travelers came from Pittsburg
over the Wabash and were on their way
to Canada to take boat for England. They
claimed to be reservists of the Servian
army, but Chief Clabaugh received word
that many of them were not.
“Accordingly, when the coaches rolled
into the Polk street station at 8:50. 20
deputy marshals were on hand to make
the proper investigation. The coaches
were uncoupled from the engine and the
deputies started through the cars.
"Instantly there was an uproar. They
leaped upon the marshals with yells that
would have made the blood of the Aus
trian army curdle. They shoved some of
the deputies out of the ears and then
followed up their advantage.
"A second riot broke out when Deputy
Marshal John II. Anderson put handcuff?
on one of the men who refused to answer
questions. The Servians got him down
but the police waded in and rescued
him.
“Chief Clabaugh. who also questioned
the men. was unable to find any evidence
to contradict the denial of the men that
they had enlisted. Federal officials in
Net* York, however, were informed by
wire to be on the lookout for the crowd.
♦ When the squad arrived there they were
taken into custody and after a severe
grilling the men were ordered held for
return to San Francisco.
“None of the deputies or officers was
seriously injured.”
DESPE E NEGRO
IS IN IN TOILS
Opelika, June 27.—(Special.)—Pomp
Dickerson, the negro who made a dur
ing and sensational escape from the Lee
county jail early last Monday morning
by the use of wooden keys which ho
fashioned with a pen knife, was re
captured this morning at 5:30 o'clock
by Deputy Sheriff Tobe Betts, Chief of
Police Buck Jones and a posse of citi
zens about five miles west of this place
at the home of Mitchell Merchant, who
was harboring him. By a piece of clever
detective work the escaped man had
been located at the home of the Mer
chant negro, but taking him without
the loss of life was another question,
as he was known to be armed and des
perate.

cinnati broke even in a double-header
today, Chicago taking the first game.

merman. came in the eighth and were
good for two runs.

Tribute to Mrs. Forney
To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
At her residence in Jacksonville, on
the 25th day of June, calmly fell
asleep in Jesus, Mrs. Mary Elizabeth
Forney, at the age of 92 years. The
deceased was a daughter of the late
Mr. and Mrs. Ira Whitaker, prominent
citizen of Troy, N. Y. She was born
at that place February 26, 1824, and
seminary. On September 24, 1849, she 1
seminary. On September 24, 1949, she
was married in Troy, N. Y., to the late
Joseph B. Forney, brother of the late
Generals William Henry and John H.
Forney of Jacksonville. She was one
cf the pioneers of this town and its
oldest inhabitant at the time of her
death and was known and loved by
everyone in the community. Having
known her well for 25 years, the
writer can truthfully say of her that
In his wide acquaintance of men and
women he has met none more noble
and lovely than she.
Through the heart agony of the civil
war and trying scenes of the recon
struction days, and the burden of the
after years, throughout her long pil
grimage, she was always the same
cheerful, practical, hopeful and help
ful "Mother In Israel." One of her
noblest traits was that she never spoke
ill of people—always tried to throw
oM upon troubled waters. She was one
cf that number described by the Mas
ter as especially blessed—"the peace
makers," She will ever be remembered
os a ministering angel to the suffer
ing and afflicted In life and for her
tender ministrations to the dying.
In all the relations of life, as wife,
mother, grandmother, friend and
church member, she was faithful, con
scientious, loyal and true; and in her
whole life she reflected “the tender
grace of a day that Is dead”—when
chivalry of knighthood and the gentle
Indefinable grace and womanliness ol
the south, wi|h Its hallowed traditions
of all that is sweetest, kindest and
most lovable In man or woman, shone
at its height with the halo of ante
bellum days.
As a gentle zephyr wafted from
Parndlse, she breathed upon us all a
sweet spirit of love and peace; an.
when She passed to that “rest thul
remaineth to the people of God," she
left a benediction upon her commun
ity In the beautiful example of a saint
ly life, and she left a void In the heart)
of her friends that cannot be filled.
And tier death was like her life
calm and peaceful, as some stately shit
with sails full set, that victoriouslj
weathering the storm, after a lotrf
voyage makes the haven of promts)
at last, in safety and peace.
She leaves a son and daughter
I-Ienry Forney of California, and Mrs
Sarah Forney Caldwell of Jacksonville
seven grandchildren, Mrs. J. Knoi
Fleming of Rlrmlngham. Mrs. Carl I.a'
r.nd Mrs. Kyle Elliott of Gadsden. Johr
Cnldwell and Misses Kate, Amelia an<
Avery Caldwell of Jacksonville, to
gether with a host of friends to mourl
her loss and cherish her memory am
strive to emulate her example. Th.
Impressive funeral service was hell
at St. Luke s Episcopal church at 10:31
a. in., Saturday. A profusion of beau
tlful flowers attested her many de
voted friends. W. T. ALLEN,

ROM NEVER MOVED
SO SAYREIS TOLD
Windsor, Vtv June 27.—President
Wilson and members of his family
out for an afternoon automobile ride,
became lost today in the foothills of
the Green mountains and for nearly
five hours were riding through dense
forests, up and down steep inclines,
part of the time in a driving rain.
The President was accompanied by
Mr. and Mrs. Francis B. 8ayre, Miss
Margaret Wilson, Miss Helen Wood
row Bones, Dr. Cary T. Grayson and
several secret service men. The chauf
feurs of the two cars carrying the
bridal party were from Washington
and the President knew the country as
well as anyone with him. At one place
Sayre leaned out and spoke to a
farmer.
“Where does this road go?" he in
r. hi red.
“I’ve been living here all my life
and it never went anywhere," replied
I the man, while the President tried to
preserve his gravity.
Gen. V. Huerta Arrested By
Federal Officers at El Paso
(Continued from Page One)
people, as a soldier shall be deemed guilty
of high misdemeanor and shall be fined
not more than $1000 and imprisoned not
more than three years.”
Another section, No. 5286, says:
“Every person who within the territory
or Jurisdiction of the United States, be
gins or sets on foot, or provides, or pre
pares the means for, any military expedi
tion or enterprise, to be carried on from
thence against the territory or dominions
of any foreign prince, or state, or any
colony, district, or people, with whom the
United States are at peace, shall be
deemed guilty of high misdemeanor and
shall be fined not exceeding $3000 and Im
prisoned not more than three years.”
Officials at the department of Justice re
fused to say under which statute General
Huerta and General Orozco had been held
but said this would be developed If for
mal arrests were made, a contingency de
pending upon the information contained
in the expected reports from the agents
of the department of Justice.
While the department here will keep
a close watch on the case, officials made
It clear that It was now' entirely in the
hands of United States Attorney Camp.
Upon him rests the responsibility of keep
ing the Mexicans under surveillance while
they are at liberty on bond.
Speculation was widespread in official
and diplomatic quarters as to the effect
of the arrest of Huerta on the political
j situation generally in Mexico. The Villa
and Carranza adherents regarded it as
contradicting reports that the American
government had lost its previously ex
pressed sympathy for the original con
stitutionalist movement and was now
ready to turn to those formerly in con
trol of Mexican politics. So far as the
state department is concerned, the ques
tions involved are concerned merely with
violations of neutrality. No officials
would admit that the desire of the Amer
ican government to prevent Genera!
Huerta from further complicating the sit
uation in Mexico had any bearing on the
arrests, but this was the interpretation
which Elizio Arrendondo, Washington
representative of Carranza, placed on it
in his statement issued tonight, saying:
CARRANZA OFFICIALS
PLEASED AT ARREST
“The detention of Victoriano Huerta.
Orozco and their accomplices at El Paso
is an act of justice on the part of the
T'nlted States government. The maze ol
machinations conducted in secrecy againsl
the peace of Mexico by well-known re
actionaries has culminated In this at
tempt at inaugurating a counter revo
lution. Tt gives President Wilson's ad
ministration an opportunity to express
definitely its adherence to the principles
of liberal and democratic government as
opposed to the government of the reac
tionary element. It has frustrated a sedi
tious plot.
“Huerta's aims are not the bettermenl
of the Mexican people but the gratlflca
tion ©f his own selfish ends. His move
ment Is headed by the same man w’hr
hears the guilt of the murders of Presi
dent Madero and Vice President Pin*
Raurez.”
Enrique C. Ulorente, Washington agen
of General Villa, also declared his grati
fieation that General Huerta had bee?
detained and reiterated that General An
geles was on friendly terms with Villt
and would return to the field after com
pleting a military mission to the Unite*
States.
While future steps in the policy whicl
President Wilson is formulating for i
solution of the Mexican problem will no
be decided until his return from Pornish
N. II., diplomatists familiar wMth the sit
uation took the view that the Washingtoi
government was unwilling in any event
uality to permit General Huerta and hi
associates to return to Mexican soi
through American territory.
