MADRIZ MOT RECOGNIZED
(Continued From First Fag-)
gan his forward movement against the
Nicaragua by -the unanimous" vote of
Congress. The session was stormy, but
perfect unanimity seemed to exist with
regard to tho election of Madriz, and
when, official announcement was made
there were vociferous cheering and cries
of 'Viva Madriz!" "Viva L-eon!" "Down
with monopolies!" "Down with tyranny!"
"lMng live the constitution!"
Dr. Madriz will assume the Presidency
at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. He
made a brief speech, pleading for har
mony and co-operation, and pledged that
ho would rule for the citizens, granting
free elections, and substituting a policy
of equal opportunity for all.
The election of Dr. Madriz as chief ex
ecutive has been expected, for influential
delegate! mrong in hi favor have been
pouring into Managua from Leon. the
stronghold of the Liberals. Chinandenga
and Grenada.
Zelaya still exercise a strong power
here, and, while It has been brought to
his notice that Madriz is not looked upon
with favor by the Government of the
I'niteJ States, he still urges Madriz to
the front as his sniccessor in office.
It is known to both Zelaya and Madriz
that Kstrada, leader of the revolution
ists who are ready to do battle with the
government forces at Rama, is strongly
opposed to the new President, for It is
well understood that Kstrada himself aas
ambitions to fill the Presidential chair.
The hope Is cherished, however, that Dr.
Madriz. in his executive capacity, will
tn able to smooth out many of the rough
places and bring about such an amicable
condition among the people- themselves
that he will not be compelled to with
draw from office.
What Zelaya and his supporters most
feared was a rising in the departments
around Managua.' for in the last two
n-ovka th widespread denunciations of
the lYesident and . his administration
were verging on revolution.

Explorers' Club Will Say He Did Not
Climn Mount McKinley.
NEW YORK, Dec. 20. The disappear
ance of Dr. Frederick A. Cook is likely
to cost him dearly. The committee of
the Explorers' Club, .which for more than
two months, has been Investigating Dr.
Cook's reputed ascent of Mount .McKin
ley. in 1906, has completed the examina
tion. H. Marshall Saville, chairman, "does
not deny that the report will be unfavor
able. The doctor promised last October to
appear before the committee whenever
needed to explain points that might need
clearing up. He did not appear, and
when Professor Saville was asked tonight
if - the doctor's action had in any way
embarrassed the committee, he said:
"You may judge that for yourself. We
did not' expect Dr. Cook to come before
us. We Bxtended the invitation to him
as a matter of fairness and he did not
avail himself of It."
The report will be made public Friday.

Leader of Suffragists Says Slie Saw
Enough to Prove Nccessity
of Suffrage.
. NEW TORK. Dec. 20. Mi s. O. H. P.
Belmont, of Newport and New York, who
lias recently transferred her Interests
from society to suffrage, gave out a state
ment tonight of her impressions of the
justice meted out to unfortunate women
In the Night Court. Mrs. Belmont went
to Jefferson market court Saturday night.
Of her visit she eays:
In the six hours spent in court I eaw
enough to convince me beyond the small
ert doubt of the absolute necessity for
women's suffrage for the direct Influence
of women over Judges. Juries and police
men, over everything and Everybody con
nected with the so-called court of justice.
"A hundredfold was It impressed upon
me in the cases of the women of the
streets who were brought before the
judge. Every woman who sits compla
cently amidjit the comforts of her home,
or who moves with perfect freedom and
Independence In her own protected social
circles and says, 'I have all the rights I
want,' should spend one night In the Jef
ferson Market Oourt. She would then
know that there are other women who
have no rights which man or law or so
ciety recognises."

glass comprised the bulk of the loot
the burglars secured by cutting a

time of its discovery.
On the heels of the burglary In'' the
Tamlain home If. M. Esterly, S76 North
Twenty-first streets reported to the po
lice that his home had been entered In
the absence of the family las.t night.
The thieves. In their effort to discover

of the house topsy-turvy. Wearing ap
parel, clothing and expensive bric-a-brac
were taken by the marauders.
The burglars gained entrance through
the medium of skeleton keys. Mr. Rs

I. W. W. Members Barred From
County Support, Say Authorities.
-SPOKANE, Wash., Dec. 20.---(SpecIal.)
There is no room at the County Poor
Farm for a member of the I. W. W. or
ganization .to be maintained during the
Winter at county expense. At the of
fice of the County Commissioners this
morning there were several applica
tions for admission to the Poor Farm,
the majority of whom were members
of the red-flag society. Commissioner
Joe PhlNlps made the customary In
quiry as to who the men were, how
long they had been in Spokane and
where they came from. Some of the
applicants admitted that tliey had
reached Spokane by the brake-beam
route, and were promptly told by Mr.
Phillips that the chance to get out of
town that way was just as good, if not
better, than it was to get here.
"To avoid harboring at the Poor
Farm transients who drift in here for
the Winter after squandering their
Summer's earnings, the Commissioners
have adapted a new plan," stated Mr.
Phillips this-rtiorning. "A dependent
or indigent who applies tpr admission
to the poorhouse must have some ref
erence. He must show that he is ,. a
resident and not a floater or a hobo,
and must be Tecommended by some re
liable party.": 1
Police raided I. W. W. headquarters
today and broke up a meeting. Later
the speakers met near the rockpile
where their fellows were employed, and';

for free speech and take their turn
