MEXICO CITY, Feb. 22.-Franclsco I.
Madera ami Jose Pino Hiiares, tho deposed
president and vice president, respectively.
of the Mexican republic, were transferred
today from tlie national palace to the
penitentiary., A member of tho provisional
cabinet said that probably no dcclsldn an

days.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-About 4,009
soldiers were ordered today to Galveston.
adapted to tho embarkation of troops for
Mexico.
They are not under ciders to proceed
to Mexico, and It is the expectation and
tho hope of the administration tliut It will
not bo necessary to Issuo orders for such
a movement. Tho situation In that coun
try, however, Is regarded as sufficient to
warrant the concentration of a fore
strong enough to take possession of a sea
port and open tho way for an Invasion
of the country.
It will be for President Woodrow Wil
son to determine whether such an expedi
tion shall be dispatched, although, of
course, It Is assumed hb first will seek
thep?uidance of congress. Through trusted
agenta, though no directly, tho president
elect la understood to have expressed his
interest In the situation and has placed
himself In a position to acquire spcclflo
knowledge as to alt the details before he
cornea to Washington on Marcn a.
Up to today the War department
official had contended themselves witn
the issue of preliminary orders to two
brlgudca of troopB, the First brigade,
First division, in New York state, und
the Fltth brigade, Second division, in
the middle west
Would Save Delay In ISmerKeucy.
In the ordinary course, 1 1 would re
; qulr-rat-jlva U. clsht .dayjsv;and'.. perhaps
idrigerNt$tnV tfieso' divisions at one
ot the -u'lf ports, ready for embarka
tion, 'ifchaa been decided that this Is
a greater period of time than properly
can be allowed to elapse beforo dispatch
ing troops to Mexico, If a great emerg
ency should arise. Therefore, it was
with, the purpose of saving this time
that orders were issued today for the
cntralnmcnt of tho entire Fifth brigade,
Second division, for Galveston, tho troops
being under command of Brlgadlro Gen
eral Frederick A. Smith, and comprising
the Fourth, Seventh, Nineteenth nnd
Twenty-eighth regiment's of Infantrx; D
company. Second battalion 'of engineers,
field hospital No. 3, ambulance corps
No. 3 and one signal corps company
from Fort Leavenworth. The FouVth
Infantry Is located at Fort Crook, Neb,,
nnd Fort Snclllng, Minn.
A subsequent order attached to this
brigade three army pack trains, each of
sixty mules, one from Fort Oglethorpe,
Ga., ono from Fort Robinson, Neb., and
one from the Presidio of San Francisco.
Also to supply a sufficient force of
cavalry to protect tho flanks, and ro
connolter for the Infantry, an order was
dispatched to Major General Carter at
Chicago to send to Galveston tho Fourth,
or mountain battery of field artillery,
commanded by Colonel Alexander B.
Dyer, stationed at Fort D. A. nussell.
Wyo.
Other Troop Ileudr.
Orders wero also Issued to General Car
ter to prepare tho Fourth brigade, Sec
ond division, for transportation to Gal
veston, but not dispatch them. This com
prises tho Twenty-third. Twenty-sixth
and Twenty-seventh regiments of Infan
iry, commanded by Brigadier Genoral
Ramsay D. Potts.
Meanwhile tho First brigade, First di
vision, comprising th Third, Fifth and
Twenty-ninth regiments of Infantry,
commanded by Brigadier General Marion
P. Maus, with headquarters at Albany,
N. Y Is also held Under preparatory
orders.
The three army transports, Sumner,
Kllpatrlck and McCIellan, now en route
from Newport News for Galveston, where
they are due about Tuesday next, will
be Joined at that port by the army trani
port Meade, aa soon as that vessel has
discharged at Guantanamo the 1.300
marines it embarked at Philadelphia
early In the week. This Is believed to
afford ample transportation facilities, at
least for the Fifth brigade.

This represents probably all tho prepar

Tjmt the Western Puclflc Is anxious to

who passed through Omaha last evening"
en route from San Francisco to Ht. Louis.
"The Western Pacific Is a lame duck,"
suld Judge Lovctt.
"It has been a very unprofitable ven

who hold Its securities I believe they
would like to scll It to the Union Pacific.
They sea. that It tho present plan is
approved by the court and the Union
Paclflo acquires the Central Pacific all i
hopo of unlondlng tho Wetern Pacific. '
on the Union Paclflo will be gone.
"I believe It Is for that reason aiono
that they aro opposing the prcfent plan.
It Is slply an effort on the part of the
owners of the Western Pacific to use tho
California condition to further this ob
ject.
"The tracks and terminals in uluestion
belong to tho Central Paclflo and to the
Southern Pacific and the Western Pa
cific has not the shadow of right or title
to their use. ',
"I nm bound to believe, therefore, thoy
aro merely trying to get the California
Ralitoad commission to lmnoseMerms-aritf

defeat tho plan and thus leave the West

aparently, has little basis, slnco tho
Union Pacific and Central Pacific arn
natural connections and were built under

WHAT THE STATUTES PROVIDE
Nebraska Law Clear and Distinct
Covering the Offense.
MEDICAL SOCIETY; IS ADVISED
County Attorney Awnre of the Con
dition, hut Sn Nlrpn Tnlicii to
Head Off the "Doctor" lit
1 1 In (.'nurse.
In violation of the law of Ne
braska "Dootor" William Hornby,
SIO North Twentieth street, has
boen practicing medicine without a
license for threo years,
Tho county r.ttorney and the Doug
las County Medical socloty are well
awura of this situation.
Yet no step has been taken to en
force the law of tho stato against'
"Doctor" Hornby nor to protect tha
public aroinst him.
Why?
Tad there been rigid enforcement In
On-Lha of the state law prohibiting Hie
practice of medicine without U licence
IshUed by tho State Hoard of Health,
Doctor" William Hornby, 610 North
Twentieth Btrcet, p.scudo cancer con
qveror, would not have been able t-i
EVlndlc Walter Morso and his family but
of JIW or more. Had the law been en
forced it would have been Impossible for,
the "doctor" to tako easy money from
scores of victims by diagnosing their
troubles an cancer or embryonic cancer
and then "treating" them for fancy fees.
A reputable business man of Hgan. 3.
D. where "Doctor" Hornby used o
prey upon the unsophisticated, lias a.l
vl.ie.i The Heo that tho "dlstttigUlsned
specialist" never had a physician's li
cense; that ho played tho same fako cm
cef cure gumo In Denver; that his
brother, "Doctor" Henry Hornby, 'is
practicing tho same kind of a deal" with
ou: a license In Sioux Falls.
This man's statement and the ono of
his letter to The Beo throw a light of
trull- that Is far from pleasant upon the
statement of a Sioux Falls man who h-'is
participated In the Hombys' Ill-gotten
profits that tho "Hornby cancer euro
stood high nt Kgan.
La iv of ' NrhrnsUn.
The statute books ot Nebraska say
shall be Mnlawfui for. arty person
practice modlclno without a license
It
to
il:. certificate of .tho-Stuto Hoard -of Hi uJt'.i,
Th law requires Hint after having pro
em pit a license from the stato boatd
the person who proposes to practice mcd
lclno shall have his license registered and
recorded in the office of the county clerk
of tho county in which he intends to
practice.
The purpose of this statute is to pro
tect the public against Imposition ot
grafters and crooks, unscrupulous fol
lows, comparatively Ignorant ot medical
Hclence, who set themselves up as 'doc
tors" and specialists and prey upon tho
KUllcless and the unsuspecting; against
responsible pylons who think little
enough of human life and human well
being to tamper and tinker with human
bodies in order to make "easy money."
Before a man can procure a license to
practice medicine ho must show to tho
stato board of health that he is schooled
in medical -science, experienced and
skilled to some extent, In short that lie is
property 'qualified to tako tho responsi
bility of caring for nn afflicted person.
The law of Nebraska provides that uny
perso'n who practices medicine without a
license Is guilty of a misdemeanor, the
ponalty for which shall be n flno of not
less than 0 nor more thun $SO0.
llornhy'n Itcriinl Here.
For three years "Doctot" Hornby has
been practicing medicine without a lic
ense In Omaha. Tho records of tho state
hoard of health show that body never
granted him a license. Ills name does
not appear on the physicians' register In
the office of the county clerk.
When a man professes to bp a doctor
persons to whom the profession Is made
naturally conclude he Is a duly qualified
and licensed physician. "Doctor" Hornby
might say he Is a doctor in that tiny
person who professes to cure Is one, yet
ho knows full well that few persons
would place their health and lives In his
care If they knew ho never had qualified
before the state board of health.
Where He 1m Cnreful.
Though In conversation, In his advertis
ing pamphlets nnd in his testimonials he
calls himself "doctor," "Doctor" Hornby
lias been careful not to publicly proclaim
himself a regularly qualified and licensed
physician. In the telephone directory
I lie calln himself plain William Hornby.
In the city dlrwtory he appears as 'Will
iam Hornby, specialist."
When a representative of The Bee
asked him It he was a regularly licensed
physician and a medical school graduate,
he answered In the affirmative. Ho said
lie was a graduate of Rush Medical col
Ige, Chicago. In reply to Inquiry as to
tho truth of this statement, officials of
Rush Medical college declared no Will
iam Hornby ever was graduated from the
Institution, und they never heard of such
a person.

Mysterious Death
of Bride and Groom

OHM HKIt LAND, Md., Feb, 2:.-Tho
mystery of the death of Charles Twigg
and Grace Klosser In c room of tho
Ulosucr homo on tho lait day of Decem
ber, 1010, which was the eve of thu pro
posed marriage of tho couple, Is believed
to have been solved.
Mrs. Marshal Wluinn nmi Iipp nUinr
Mrs. Pearl Mungold, tho prefont occu-
pants of the liouso in which tho Twigg-
lSlotscr tragedy occurred, were overcome
yesterday by carbon monoxide gus. The
two woman were rescued by n neighbor,
who rushed in and dragged them to tha
open air, where they were resuscitated.
Tlie theory of the poisoned "kisse)''
was one of eovurai, theories advanced nt
the time of the double tragedy, but Mrs
Loulra K. Hlotser, mother of tho dead
girl, believed It was carbon mqnoxlde
gas that had killed tho two. The case of
tho two women yesterday Is regarded by
tlio authorities as substantiating her
belief.
In the old Klosser home pieces of brlcl;
had been placed In tlio chimney to
fesscn tlie draft. An accumulation of soot
had later completely closed the aperture
and Jlie gas had overcome the two
women. .
