MEXICO ISSUES AN
ULTIMATUM TO U. S,
President Huerta Repudiates
American Plan for Peace
able Mediation.
Mexico City. Th Vnlted State
ftovernment has Iwn given what Is
regarded as an ultimatum by Presi
dent Huerta to recognise Mexico, or
sever all diplomatic relations, It is
officially stated, and Charge d'Affalrea
O'ShaughneKay van given his pass
ports. Senor I'rretla, minister of the In
terior, who on previous occasions has
been the spokesman for the adminis
tration, was the person chosen to
make the announcement.
The demand for recognition of Mexi
co was Included in the note replying
to Mr. Llnd's suggestion.
One official, in discussing the mat
ter, said that Mexico had reached the
point where she either must bow her
head in humiliation before the Vnited
States or adopt an attitude of defi
ance. The first contingency, he added,
was regarded as impossible.
The official said that Mexico fully
realized the gravity of her action and
the possibilities that might ensue in
case the United States refused to rec
ognize the republic.
Conservative authorities, however,
are unwilling to believe that even the
severance of diplomatic relations and
Mexico's defiant attitude would pro
voke the United States beyond for
bearance. WOULD BUILD ALASKA ROADS
Development of Coal Lands and Cheap
Transportation Needed.
Seattle, Wash. In his address at
the commercial club here Secretary
Lane declared it was one of the first
duties of the government to develop
Alaska.
"If the government were Justified
In spending $400,000,000 to Join the At
lantic and Pacific coasts with a canal,
why was it not as much obligated to
link to Itself with an outlying portion
of the United States by an expendi
ture of $40,000,000? The United States
built a dirt road across Pennsylvania
century ago, and dug a canal from
Lake Erie to the Hudson river."
The secretary declared himself not
only in favor of government construc
tion of an Alaskan railroad system,
but its operation, so that products
might be transported at reasonable
cost. He wished to see the coal lands
developed bo that they would benefit
all the people and not fall Into the
hands of a monopoly.

HARRY THAW MAKES
DASH FOR LIBERTY
llatteawan, X. Y. Harry K. Thaw,
the slayer of Stanford White, escaped
from the hospital for t lie criminal In
sane at 7:4."i Sunday morning. A dart
for liberty through an open gate, a
dash into the open door of u power
ful automobile that stood quivering
outside, and a flight like a rocket for
for the Connecticut state line. 30 miles
away, accomplished his escape, anil
the hospital authorities are certain
he is outside the stale. Once beyond
its boundaries, Thaw Is free. Only
long, perhaps years, of litigation can
bring him hack, and then only In one
event that he he adjudged Insane In
the state to which he-has fled.
The shades were drawn In the dor
mitories and the Inmates were getting
their second sleep when Thaw left his
room. The milkman's cart was rum
bling on the road outside as he walked
through the storeroom and Into the
outer court or yard of the asylum
grounds. A six-cylinder touring car,
black, and 60-horsepower, followed by
a limousine, also black, loafed lazily
along the road as the milkman drew
near the gate. Thaw, standing a few
feet away, apparently unconcerned,
waited until Barnum, attendant at the
gate, unlocked the gate and swung it
wide to let the milkman enter. As
Barnum stepped aside for the milkman
to drive Inside Thaw flashed past him
straight for one of the waiting cars.
