Wilson sa Mayor, together with a board
of city trustees who win carry out the
measures of municipal ownership on
which he campaigned and the large vote
that was accorded Thomas Booth, the
Socialist candidate for Mayor In Oak
land, are far from being a serious prob
lera politically. There are many angles
behind the election of WUson and the
vote that was given the Oaklander
which will explain In great measure the
seeming tendency of Caltfornlans toward
Socialism.
Interior dissension In the local party
councils In both of the cities named, with
the usual Jealousy thst extends In pure
ly municipal affairs. Is held accountable
to a certain degree; but more than that
is the report admitted even at Socialist
headquarters that the union la Dor people
of Alameda County, rather than form a
party of their own, have preferred to
amalgamate temporarily with the Social
ists. Socialists Claim Credit. N
This rote, combined with -those who
are dissatisfied, the Job-hunters and that
sure Dercentaxe of the people who are
against the government will account for
the vote that has grown in isaKiana
from COO for the Socialist candidate In
190, to 6927 In the advisory election re
cently held.
Socialists will, of course, deny this.

MIDDIES MAY FACE INQUIRY
Congre? Seems Prepared to Stake
Fight Over "Caste."
WASHINGTON. April S3. (Special)
Unless signs fall, a fine row Is in
prospect In Congress over the old ques
tion of caste In the Navy. The apology
Offered by the Navy Department as the
result of the recent Incident at the
Annapolis Academy has aggravated
rather than smoothed the situation In
certain circles, and champions of the
"common people" are duo to let them
selves be heard.
It Is the view of high officials that
an apology Is due Professor Beers, of
Tale, and his daughter, who was cut
off from participation In social events
at the Naval Academy after the mid
shipman who took her to one of the
hops had been reprimanded for ao
doing.
At m pinch high officials are likely
to defend the caste principle and there
the clash would come between . them
and the plain members of Congress,
who resent the placing ol official social
barriers against. a young womati who
by force of circumstances, la com
pelled to earn henowft living.

ington. A pill 23. Senators opposed to
the Canadian reciprocity bill are pre
paring to make a determined fight
against It after It has been reported
by tb Senate committee on finance.
They would starj. their fight In com
mittee but for the fact that a. majority
of that committee la believed to Btand
ready to report, without further Inves
tigation, and therefore the .phlef oppo
sition will be raised on the floor of
the Senate.
Possibly the committee will not be aa
precipitate In reporting the bill this
session as was the old finance co"m
mlttee last session, and It may ba that
gome members of the committee who
do not believe in reciprocity may
undertake to postpone the report. But
any opposition raised In committee will
only be dilatory, and the big struggle
will come when the bill Is before the
Senate.
Personal 'Appeals Mnde.
Not only are Senators In opposition
to the bill preparing to speak against
it, but already they are engaged In
missionary work among Senators who
are lukewarm and inclined to support
It merely because it is an Administra
tion measure. In this campaign that
Is going on outside the Senate cham
ber some of the strongest Republican
Senators are engaged, and earnest ap
peals are being made to all Senators
who are believed to be somewhat In
doubt as to the wisdom of ratifying the
trade agreement with Canada.
Rarely docs debate In either House
of Congress change many votes. The
public discussion merely affords Sen
ators and Representatives an oppor
tunity to express their own views, for
their own gratification and for the en
lightenment of 'the constituency at
home. It Is only when a subject la not
well understod that the opinions of
wiser men Influence the votes of those
who are not thoroughly Informed. But
It frequently happens that votes can
be made by personal appeals that could
never be secured through public de
bate. And knowing this fact, the op
ponents of Canadian reciprocity have
started their quiet campaign.
Able Speeches Expected.
No doubt there will be able speeches
In the Senate on both sides of the
Canadian reciprocity question, for It Is
a topic that has appealed strongly to
the deep thinkers and students of that
body, and most of them have been giv
ing much time to the collection or data
and the preparation .of arguments sus
taining their personal views. There

London Doctor Tells Why Stronger
Sex Would Di if He Wore
Ball Gown In Winter.
LONDON, 'April 23. (Special.) Why
can an apparently fragile woman wear
"pneumonia blouses" in the Arctic
Springs of the British Isles? Why can
she walk" about In the thinnest of shoes
and transparent stocks when the tem
perature is below the freezing point?
Why can she do these things and wear
an evening costume which would be
fatal to'the majority of men, and yet
suffer no harm?
These are the questions that have
puzzled the Dally Mirror. To solve
them it applied to "an experienced
doctor, who has studied the subject."
He had been puzzled by the same prob
lems. The scientist discovered that "women
have a special layer of fat all over
their bodies thicker than man's and
acquired when human kind dwelt In
caves and huts. In those days," he
argued, "men were able to keep them
selves warm by hunting and fighting.
Woman had to stay at home In the
cave to look after the baby and cook
her husband's dinner, whenever he
might .bring it In. Nature set to work
and gradually built up on woman a
special layer of projective fat."
FARM ELECTRICITY MADE
Walla Walla Tillers Find Gasoline
Dynamos Are Big- Aid.
WALLA WALLA, Wash. April 23.
(Special.) Electricity Is to play
great part in the farm life of the Wall
Walla Valley, according to ranchers o
this vicinity and engineers who are
engaged in the work of constructing
the plants. More than a dozen farmers
of the county near here are Installing
such plants, and will, develop the elec
trlclty for their own use.
It la cheaper, farmers assert, who
have tried It, to own a small electric
plant and to operate it by a gasoline
engine than to buy the power, and it
costs no more than half what the local
public companies are asking to gen
erate the power at home, they say.
, Many farmers have water power that
will enable them to generate all the
lectrlclty they need. Power-site hoi
ders. are lucky, for they are now plan
nlng to do all the chores by electricity
instead of by hand.

Wellesley Mathematician Honored

WELLES LET, Mass... April 23. (Spe
cial.) MIbs Clara E. Smith, Ph. D.. in
structor in mathematics at Wellesley
College, has been notified that she has
been elected as a fellow to. the Ameri
can Association for the Advancement of
Science. Miss Smith's election came
partly because of her solution of a prob
lem in mathematical science, a problem
which has perplexed mathematfeians for
nearly a century.
After several years of hard work she
discovered that Abel's theorems could
be used to do Bessel's problems In a
quicker and Bimpler manner than was
hitherto known. This discovery gave
mathematicians and physicists a labor
saving method which men of science can
fully appreciate.

be granted to members of the Madero
family, police commissioners, those

EL PASO. Tex., April 23. An armis
tice of five days, beginning. at noon
today, affecting the district between
Juarez and Chihuahua and west of the,
latter, was made effective today in an I
exchange of identical letters signed by
General Francisco L Madero, Jr., for
the rebels, and General Juan Navarro
for the government.
The truce provides there shall be no
movement of troops of either side dur
ing the next five days, and that nrovl-
sions aDd medicines may be brought to
either camp from the United States
without payment of duty. It Is noted
that Ojanlga, where a small federal
force fs besieged. Is not covered in the '
armistice, the lnsurrecto activity In
that district being largely Independent.
Other Settlements Expected.
It is expected that in tho event of
the settlement of tho rebellion in Chi
huahua, the situation at Ojanlga and
other scattered places throughout tha
republic will receive attention. Tha
moral effect of the cessation of hos
tilities in Chihuahua is regarded as
certain to make settlements In other
parts of the country.
It ' was known that a truce waa
agreeable to Madero and a telegram
from Mexico City Informed General
Madero that General Navarro had been
Instructed by President Diaz to enter.
into the agreement.

Concessions Are Discussed.
Tha concessions which tha govern

known to General Madero for two
weeks, ever since Frederico Moye, a
business man of Chihuahua, visited
General .Madero at Rancho Bustlllos.
They wera discussed In the meeting by
tha leaders and members of the peace
mission.
Those) present were Francisco Ma
dero, Sr., father of the rebel leader;
the latter's brothers, Alfonso, Gustavo
and Raoul Madero ; Pasqual Orozco,
the original field leader of the revolu
tionists; Par.cho Villa, ex-bandit and.
present staunch supporter of Madero;
Giuseppe Garibaldi, and General and
Senora Madero.
Scnora Advises Madero.
The last named is accredited a warm
supporter of taking Juarez and then
talking peace. She feels her husband
would ba In better position to talk '
peace from Juarez than from the hills'
around it. A representative of tha
Associated Press was with the peace
party, by Invitation, having been with
the lnsurrecto forces much of the time.
Much of the discussion was of a
