Many G-o From Torreon Dis

UNREST PBEVAILIWG-AMONG-
COAL MINERS
Torreon, Mex., July 15. Declaring
the belief that they can no longer en
joy proper guarantees in Mexico, 40
Spaniards who have been residents of
the Laguna district for several years
are leaving for the Argentine republic,
"where they believe a. prosperous future
is open to them.
Among those who have already de
parted is Flrmln Aldaz, a ranchman
of some means, of Coyote, where nu
merous disorders have occurred since
the signing of peace. Other ranchers
and clerks from San Pedro, Santa Te
resa and other parts of the Laguna
district are preparing for their de
parture. Victims of Outrages.
Spaniards have been the victims of
outrages since the close of the revolu
tion. In one assaulti at Santa Teresa
one man was killed and two wounded.
The men will engage in agriculture
largely, but some will enter commer
cial fields.
During the past two weeks consid
erable uneasiness has been felt among
the Spaniards in this section owing to
the printing of anonymous circulars in
the guise of mushroom periodicals
threatening the safety of the Spanish
colonies in Torreon and Gomez Palacio.
Rumors have also been current of an
impending attack on Spaniards, hut
these are not taken seriously. The
action of the emigrants was prompted
by -what has happened rather than the
consequences which might arise from
the circulation of these rumors,
Unrest Among Miners.
A decided feeling of unrest prevails
among thousands of coal miners em
ployed t at Rio Escondido, where the
men are effecting the reorganization of
a union intended to be stronger than
that which inaugurated the one day
strike at the mines two weeks ago.
Only three foreigners, two Scotchmen
and one Englishman, remain in .the
employ of the company besides the
Spanish clerks employed.
The men returned to, work in ail the
mines of the company- but Nos. 6 and
7 have since "been practically closed
t down and part of the forces sent to
No 2 and to the Ciudad Porf iria Diaz
mines.
It was at Bio Escondido that grave
disturbances followed the departure
from the station of Gen. Francisco Ma
dero on his way to Mexico City. The
trouble which arose at Agujita mines
was of short duration. Extra Maderist
forces are to be sent to some of the
coal mines on Sunday to preserve or

of the garrison at Agua Prieta, in

charge of that customs house would
mean their summary arrest.
The men were arrested upon repre

they represented the old regime and j
were favorable to Diaz. In fact, one
of the men is said to have remained
on the American side of the line
throughout the Recent rebellion, return

the difficulties and resuming his place
among the gendarmes fiscal.
Customs house officers of Agua Pri

half of the men and were arrested con
currently with them, have also been re

under arrest, were allowed the freedom
of the town, pending settlement of the
difficulty. They at once got busj- with

were received from Gen. Lomelin, of

WILSON WIRES TO

The Juarez hospitals have received
no support from any source for nearly
three weeks, nd the lnsurrecto sol

can government must support them or
they will take the money from the cus

plies which were necessary for the
care of the wounded insurrectos and the
sick of the city.
Merchants Refuse Credit.
Friday, several of the merchants
closed down on supplying the hospitals
with food and medicines, and the sol
diers in the Juarez garrison immediate
ly took up the matter. They called on
CoL Jas. L. Wilson, who has charge of
the hospitals, and asked for a state
ment of conditions In regard to the
maintenance of the hospitals.
The facts were laid before them and
they said that they would see that
the money was forthcoming to take
care of their wounded and sick com
rades, if they had to use force. They
declared that they would go to the
customs house and demand the money,
and if it was not' given to them, they
would take it by force from both the
banks and customs house.
Advi&es Madero.
Col. Wilson told the men not to take
any action until he made Francisco
I. Madero acquainted with conditions.
So Saturday morning he telegraphed
the- following message to Madero:
"Send u. 3500 pesos to pay bills.
Credit shut off. Soldiers know condi
tions and declare will take money
from customs house and banks if noth
ing isdone within 24 hours.
The message was signed by Col. Wil

ON REVOLT
Archbishop Ortiz Issues a
Warning to the Clergy to
Avoid Political Disputes.
SHOULD KEEP OUT
OF MEXICAN DISPUTE
Guadalajara, Mexico, July 15. At'
least one of the high ecclesiastics of
the Catholic church in Mexico does not
believe in the clergy mixing in poli
tics, notwithstanding the fact that
the National Catholic party has been
formed with, the object of gaining
greater freedom for the Catholic church
In this country Archbishop Ortiz, of
.this city, has issued a circular letter
litical question of the day. He says
"That priests of this diocese may
have a standard, fixed and certain, to
guide them in the attitude and conduct
they should observe in relation to the
political parties that have appeared
In connection with coming elections, j
ana principally in relation to tne Ja
tional Catholic party, we have deemed
it convenient to remind them of that
which was ordered by the plenary coun
cil of Latin-America, Nos. 656 and 657."
Bars Political Activity.
Then follows a quotation directing
priests to refrain from mixing in "po
litical questions and parties; from dis
cussing politics inside or outside the
church, and from showing favor to one
party more than another, except in the
event one party is openly hostile to
the Catholic religion.
Continuing, the archbishop says:
"From the above It Is deduced that
all priests are prdhlbited from taking
an active part In political parties, ana
it is our will that all comply with a
regulation so prudent.
"Do not call,, or preside at, political
reunions, accept any charge in connec
tion with them, nor treat of political
subjects in the pulpit, the confession
al or in religious as5f)ciatIons."
The National Catholic party is active
throughout the republic, and will have
candidates in the coming national and
state election?. Some Catholic priests
of this state have been accused by local
newspapers of working for the Catholic
party.
De Lara Called to Stage.
Chihuahua, Mexico, July 15. At the
meeting held at the Teatro de los He
roes to reply to the charge made by
Gutierrez de Lara, the socialist, that
tthe, church had been responsible for
all the revolutions that have taken
place in Mexico, one of the speakers, a
member of the staff of "El Monitor,"
as disarmed as he entered the build-
ing, his gun and ammunition being
taken from him.
The speakers, when they attempted
to present, evidence contrary to the
charges brought by de Lara, became
confused and were laughed at by the
audience. De Lara, who was present,
was cheered and forced to the stage

White's Alleged Loss of
$30,000 in the Corruption
Jackpot Is Taken Up.
TELLS OF VETO OF
CORPORATION BILL
Washington, D. O., July 15. Governor
Charles S. Deneen. of Illinois, who fig
gured in the Lorimer senatorial fight,
again testified today before the senate j
Lorimer committee
Governor Deneen said that before the
publication of tho alleged White con
fession, editor Kelley, of the Chicago
Tribune, sugested to him that a special
session of the legislature be called to
consider the Lorimer case. The witness
said that at a consul cation with his ad
visers, however, the conclusion was
reached that the investigating commit
tee would piobably consist of men who
are guilty and the special session was
not called.
The "Jackpot" Incident.
Representative White's reference in
hls alleged confession to the $30,000
loss to the corruption "jackpot" because
of the governor vetoing "one" bill was
taken up. Governor Deneen said he had
examined his vetoes 4 and "guessed"
White was referring to the "corpora
tion bill," revising the corporation laws
of the state. Governor Deneen said h&
vetoed it because it allowed "a barber
shop to incorporate and buy a rail
road." Many Callj Few Remembered.
The witness said a large number of
the leading lawyers of the state had
seen him in behalf of the bill.
"Did Mr. Bancroft, general counsel
of the International Harvester com
pany, see about not 'vetoing the bill?"
asked Mr. Hanecy. "
"I do not recall whether he called
before or after the bill was passed.'
The witness added that he did not
know whether Bancroft favored the
bill which was objectipnable to Deneen.
Touching on the election of Shurt
leff as speaker In the legislature which
elected Mr. Lorimer, Mr. Hancey asked i
it .ueneen ua.u not sam in me presence
of J. W. Ford, jr., and representative
D. D. Browneback that he "would -defeat
Shurtleff if it was necessary to
use all the patronage to do it."
Deneen 'Denies.
"I never did," replied ae governor, j
He added that Ford claimed at one con- j
versation that Deneen was using all the
patronage to that purpose.
Gov. Deneen denied that he had said
to representative Durfee when Durtee
announced to him that he "was going to
leave Hopkins "for Lorimer that Lori
mer would be elected and that the elec
tion would be satisfactory to him.
"I tried to prevent Durfee voting for
Lorimer," said the governor, "and
suggested to him that I probably would
have to call a special session of the
legislature in the fall to pass on water
way matters and in the meantime .the
senatorial candidates would fight the
matter out before the people."
The Noyes Conversation.
Conversations Goy. Deneen had with
Frank B. Xoyes, then publisher of the
Chicago RecordHeralO, were 'gone Tpto.
The -witness denied that Noyes had
said to him "that Lorimer was the only
Republican who could take, or con
sistently have the office of senator by
Democratic votes."
He also denied that Noyes had told
him "that if an attempt was made by
Lorimer to elect Shurtleff senator that
every vote the newspapers could con
trol would be thrown to Hopkins and
HoPkJ,ns uld b.e. ?leed-"
I do not recollect any such conver
sation and do not recall any conver
sation in which he claimed that he
could control any votes in the legisla
ture," added the governor.

j Edward Hines, the Chicago lumberman.
and Deneen on May 25, the day Lori
mer was elected war- dlscussea.
The ,H1hc Matter.
Attorney Hancey read an article in
the Chicago Tribune written by C. S.
Raymond from Springfield- on May 25.
In this reference was made to the report
that a telegram from president Taft
confirmatory of the telephone message, j
Influenced Lorimer s election.
4lMr. Raymond was not referring to
Mr. Hines's telephone conservation to

that," said the governor.
