MESSAGEWARNS
NEWCONGRESS
Huerta Intimates He May Again
Force Dissolution.
THROUGH LINES OF TROOPS
Mexican Provisional President Ap
pears Before Lawmakers and
Reads His Message.
Mexico City, Nov. 21.—His face
showing none of the whimsical humor
which sometimes characterizes him
President Huerta appeared before the
new Mexican congress and read his
message.
It was nothing more than a terse
explanation of his motives for dis
solving the old congress, most of the
members of which are now in the
penitentiary accused of sedition.
The senate and chamber of depu
ties met in joint session and congress
was formally declared convened.
President Huerta came to the con
gress through lines of troops and the
small crowds which gathered were
not demonstrative.
The message General Huerta bor
to them was in its essence an aa
monition. The incident he related to
them of the dissolution of the
previous congress was one by which
It was intimated it might be a guid"
in their conduct as congressmen.
The reply of the speaker, Eduardo
Tamariz, was brief. Not all the con
gressmen were present. Twenty
seven of them put in an appearance
end most of these were members of
the Catholic party, to which Tamariz
belongs.
Huerta Receives Applause.
The president was applauded only
upon his arrival and departure, when
the members of congress and the
spectators arose to their feet and
added "vivas" to the handclapping.
One young deputy, more enthusiastic
than the rest, called for a cheer "for
the man who is maintaining the na
tional dignity.
The only country not represented
was the United States. Nelson
O'Shaughnessy, the charge d'affaires,
acting under instructions, was absent
from the session.
The charges of Cuba and Brazil
were reminded by Mr.-O'Shaughnessy
that their governments had not rec
ognized that of Huerta and suggested
that they remain away.
A technical violation of the law
created comment. General Huerta's
staff filed in wearing side arms. It
Is specifically provided that no arm
ed soldier shall ever appear on the
floor of the house and custom has or
dained that officers appearing in uni
form must do so with empty scab
bards.
Outside the building, throughout, a
Strong force of* soldiers guarded all
the approaches, patrols rode the
streets for several blocks around and
other troops were stationed further

SENDS WORD TO FLETCHER
Bryan Asks Admiral to Protect All
Oil Interests.
Washington, Nov. 21.—Secretary
Bryan requested the navy department
to cable instructions to Admiral
Fletcher at Vera Cruz to undertake
the protection of foreign as well as
American interests in oil on the east
coast of Mexico. He explained that a
request for the protection of the Brit
ish interests in the neighborhood of
Tuxpam and Tampico' had reached the
state department through the Ameri
can embassy in London.
Although the matter was treated at
the state and navy departments as of
small importance it was pointed out
that Admiral Fletcher may be con
fronted with quite a troublesome prob
lem.
REBELS CAPTURE VICTORIA
Take Capital of the Mexican State of
Tamaulipas.
Nogales, Sonora, Nov. 20.—That
the entire city of Victoria, capital of
the state of Tamaulipas, has been
captured by Mexican rebels, except a
convent in the outskirts, was the
word brought here.
The convent, in which is the rem
nant of the Victoria federal garrison,
is completely surrounded by rebels,
who intend to starve the defenders
out.

tral lines, resigned. The directorates
of the four railroad companies com
prising the New York Central sys
tem accepted his resignation. It will
become effective New Year's day. A
H. Smith, senior vice, president of the
lines, it is reported, will succeed him.
Mr. Brown is sixty years old and
has been in the railway service for
more than forty-four years. He has
been president of the New York Cen

IMPORTANT RATE
HEARING BEGINS
Eastern Lines Fighting to Raise
Freight Tariffs.
Washington, Nov. 24.—The inter
state commerce commission has be
gun a hearing, which probably will,
extend over several months, on the
proposed freight rate increases of ap
proximately 5 per cent filed Oct. lfi
last by railroads in the territory eas*
of the Mississippi river and north ot
the Ohio and Potomac rivers.
Although only the railroads in
classification territory included with
in the boundaries specified are direct
ly involved in the hearing actually
every railroad in the country is con
cerned.
Should the commission permit the
roads applying to increase rates the
same authority might be extended to
other carriers to increase rates on
all classes of freight on an average
of 5 per cent.
ANOTHER PRECEDENT BROKEN
on
No Reception at White House
New Year's Day.
Washington, Nov. 22.—President
Wilson has shattered a precedent of
more than 100 years' standing.
He announced that there would be
no public reception at the White
House on New Year's day.
For many years it has been cus
tomary for the president to stand in
the blue room from two to five hours
and shake hands with all who come
along. This will not be done this
year.
Instead, the president will go away
from Washington for a- "brief holi
day vacation," and will not be in the
White House on New Year's day.

Conservation Congress Acts on
Water Power Controt.
OPPOSES PRIVATE OWNERSHIP
Monopolistic Holding of Water Power
Is Denounced by Convention
at Washington.
Washington, Nov. 21.—Monopolis
tic control of water power in private
hands was denounced, with a declara
tion that no water power rights own
ed by the public should ever be re
iroved from public ownership, by the
National Conservation congress
which adjourned.
The climax of the water power
fight, which had agitated the con
gress for several days, came after
the committee on resolutions, to
which had been referred divergent
reports from the waterways commit
tee, submitted that the subject had
been taken from its hands by action
of .the convention in adopting gener
al principles upon which the water
ways committee agreed. No mention
of the majority or minority reports,
which differed as to state and federal
control of water power projects, was
made in the resolutions committee's
report.
When the report had been read
Gifford Pinchot, former chief forester
of the United States and father of
the minority waterways report in the
congress, moved as an amendment to
the resolutions report a declaration
of principles on waterway control,
similar to the ideas in the minority
report signed hy himself, former Sec
retary of War Henry L. Stimson and
Joseph N. Teal of Oregon.
Adopted by Overwhelming Vote.
This amendment was adopted by a
vote of 317 to 96 after one offered by
Representative Burnett of Alabama,
which injected into the resolution the
matter of state control of waterways
projects, had been defeated, 378 to
132.
The Pinchot amendment, which ap
peared after a stormy session, set
forth that monopolistic control of wa
ter power in private hands was swift
ly increasing in the United States,
"far more rapidly than public control
thereof," that increasing "concentra
tion of water power in some hands'
was accompanied by growing control
over the power consuming agencies,
the public service concerns of the
country.
The congress elected Charles Lath
rop Pack of Lakewood, N. J., as presi
dent to succeed himself Mrs. Emmons
Crocker, Fitchburg, Miss., vice presi
dent N. C. McLeod, Washington, D.

all nationalities set foot on the shores
of this country, according to figures
issued by the department of labor.
Of this army of immigrants 3,337

ABOUT THE STATE
News of Especial Interest to
Minnesota Readers.
RULING AFFECTS BIG TRACT
Interior Department Suspends Issuing
Patents for Swamp Lands to the
State of Minnesota.
A. A. Jones, first assistant secretary
of the interior, in a letter received by
Governor Eberhart notified the execu
tive that he has suspended the is
suance of further patents to the state
of Minnesota under the swamp land
grant of 1860.
This action involves 500,000 acres of
land claimed by the state and is a di
rect result of the protest filed with the
department by W. R. McKenzie of Be
midji and C. M. King of Deer River,
officers of the Northern Minnesota De
velopment league, against the issuance
of more patents until the legislature
adopts some definite reclamation pol
icy.
The protest alleged that the grant
expressly provided for the use of the
money derived from the sale of these
lands in draining and otherwise im
proving them. This, it was said, the
state has not done and instead has di
verted this money to school1 and-qhar
itable institutions, thereby breaking
its contract with the government.
Thus contention is sustained by Mr.
Jones in his letter to Governor Eber
hart He asks that the state submit
whether it has complied with the
terms of the swamp land grant and if
not what steps it proposes to take
looking to the performance of the trust
imposed upon it.
Governor Eberhart said he is sure
the state's title to the land will not
be questioned and that the suspension
simply means there will be a delay in
having the patents issued until the
state shall satisfy the department that
it is acting in good faith.
DEPUTY WARDEN RESIGNS
Failure to Shoot Escaping Prisoner
Said to Be Cause.
Robert M. Coles, deputy warden at
the new prison at Stillwater, and an
employe of the state since 1903,
re-an
signed suddenly after a disagreement
with Warden Henry Wolt'er. He was
succeeded at once by John J. Sullivan,
acting deputy at the old prison.
Coles' failure to shoot at a fleeing
convict, who had escaped from with
in the prison walls, is said to-have
been the cause of Wolfer's dis
pleasure. Harry Mont, alias Andrew
Montfort, a Mexican, was captured
by the deputy warden and a posse
of guards shortly after he had at
tacked one of the guards and made
his way outside the walls. Wolfer,
it is said, met Coles on his return to
the prison and demanded to know
why he did not shoot at the Mexican.
A quarrel ensued, according to re
port, and Coles furnished the sequel
by tendering his resignation, effec
tive immediately.

VALUED AT MANY MILLIONS
Rich Discovery of Iron Ore Near
Eveleth, Minn.
The discovery of high grade ore in
eighty-acre tract near Eveleth has
probably resulted in suddenly mak

treasurer Thomas D. O'Brien, former
justice of the supreme court, and E.
E. Smith, Governor Eberhart's po
litical manager.
The "strike" was made following
secret drilling that has been going
on for several weeks. It is believed
that the eighty acres Is filled with
ore and a conservative estimate will
place the value at no less than $10,
000,000 and may go ten times that
amount.

The following report has been go
ing the rounds in the daily press' of
the United States, but obviously lacks
credence:' "Report's that Grand Duch
ess Marie Pavlovna, first cousin of the
czar of Russia and wife of Prince
William, second son of King Gustav
of Sweden, was concerned in the re
cent espionage affair, which resulted
in the Russian military attache being
ordered to leave the country, have
been revived since it became known
that the marriage of Prince William
and the grand duchess is likely to be
dissolved. Rumors have been current
for a long time of disagreements be
tween the couple, who were married
in, St. Petersburg in 1908, when the
grand duchess, who is a daughter ot
Grand Duke Paul Alexandre!itch, ff-as
eighteen years of ttgs Her husband
is twenty-nine." But the Swedish pa
pers have an entirely different report,
viz., that the princess several weeks
ago departed for Capri, Italy, to Join
her mother-in-law, Queen Victoria of
Sweden, who is there spending the
fall and winter months for her health.
Alexander de Sawinsky whose name
also has been connected with the scan
dal, is still in Stockholm and stands
high in diplomatic circles there. The
whole thing appears to be nothing but
an absurd attempt to introduce un
pleasant gossip relative to court life
in Sweden and has, according to
Swedish papers, not the slightest

King Haakon attended a performance
at the National theater in Christiania
of one of Bjornson's pieces and dur
ing an intermission his majesty sum
moned the dramatist to his box to
congratulate him on his success.

not pronounced correctly.' And he
proceeded to show how, in his opin
ion, it ought to be pronounced. The
king laughed and said he would try
to remember Bjornson's hint when
using the word in the future.
