HOME CAPITALS NOTIFIED Britain, France and Spain Chiefly Concerned; Carranza General De nies lie Executed Prisoners and Women Camp Followers. WASHINGTON, April 16. All the mBassies and legations in Washington representing- countries which have con siderable interest in Mexico have re ceived from the international commit tee of Mexico City, it was learned Thurs day, affidavits testifying to the exist ence of conditions of anarchy in Mex ico, and reciting1 specific cases of abuse of foreign residents. Most of the affidavits are directed to the British, French and Spanish embassies. Examination at some of the embassies has disclosed the fact that in many cases the allegations have been confirmed by advices already re ceived from Mexico City. Consequently the diplomats have deemed the affi davits worthy of immediate transmittal to their home governments. Full Corroboration Obtained. In at least- one case, also, copies of the papers, where allegations have been confirmed by the embassy's advices, have been laid before the State Depart ment as a matter of information. Secretary Bryan said some time ago that ho had been informed by some agencies in Mexico City that these documents were in transit to Washing ton and that they exaggerated the actual conditions in many cases. Therefore, the embassies have been careful to make sure that such of the communications as were submitted to the State Department were fully cor roborated by reports from their own diplomatic agencies and consuls in Mexico. Kxecntion of Prinonera Denied. Serme of the affidavits relating to the mistreatment of foreign women and tho .robbing and beating of foreigners were made public recently at El Paso, Tex., on the arrival at that place of the agent of the international com mittee. The Carranza agency here gave out n statement tonight saying General Herrera 'had telegraphed from Nuevo Laredo a denial of reports that he had executed prisoners and women camp followers after the recent battle at Huisaehito. The only man executed, the statement said. was Narciso Romero, who was condemned for hav ing set fire to the town of Candela. Herrera Review 4 (MM) Men.

Only One Slight iialn In Carpathian C'ampnlfcn I Reported by Petro srad War Office. LONDON'. April 16. Failure of the Russian attempt to invade Hungary was announced Thursday by the German War Office. Tho statement Is made that the effort of the Russian army from JPrze mysl to force the Lupkow and East JDukla passes was not- snccessful, and that its attacks at several points along this front resulted in defeat with heavy losses. In consequence, it is said, the attacking power of the Russians has lessened visibly. Although official reports from 1'etro ffrad concede no surli reverses, they indicate the Russian advance has been brought virtually to a halt. The Kns ttian War Office says "Blight progresff' was made near Uzsok Pass and a counter attack at Koziowa by the Aus-tro-Gernian forces failed. - The German report, speaking of the Koziowa fight, asserts the Russians were repulsed with large losses. The following Austrian official com munication was issued today: "In West Galicia near Ciezkowice, on the Biala. a Russian attack made early on the morning of the 14th failed. "On the heights on both sides of Wysockie, on the Stry, strong Russian forces attacked our positions, but were repulsed after severe fighting. In a counter-attack we captured an im portant height, taking three officers and 661 men prisoners. "In tho remainder of the Car pathians, except In some sectors, there were only artillery engagements." The official communication issued by the Russian War Office tonight says: "At Ossowetz Wednesday the enemy ineffectually attempted an advance on the Russian position "In the direction of Miawa, we were successful in outpost fighting. "On the left bank of the Bzura, Rus sian. outposts occupied Koundtzen in the Sochaczew region. "In the Carpathians the Russians ad vanced slightly in the region north of Uzsok Pws, where 200 prisoners were taken. . Vhe enemy's attacks on the heights of Semuth and Volosate. near Tamorow and to the South of Koziouwka were successfully repelled." I50MEKO SAYS "ALL HUMBUG' Carranza Minister to Japan Says Huerta Is Responsible. SEATTLE, Wash., Aprrl 16. "That's all humbug,'"' said Colonel M. Perez Romero, recently appointed - Carranza minister to Japan, and brother of Mrs. Francisco- iladero, widow of the late President of Mexico, last night, when shown a copy of General Huerta's state ment disclaiming responsibility for the death of Mr. Madero. ' "Laying aside the fact that he got into power by treason, and disregarding the question of who actually shot Presi dent Madero, the fact remains, said Colonel Romero, "that General Huerta was in power and could command the armed foroes of the country. President Madero was his prisoner, and while in his power was assassinated. How Huerta can attempt to evade responsi bility for his death is inconceivable. "I was an eyewitness to all the hap penings of those tragic days except for seven hours from 10 o'clock at night until 5 o'clock - in the morning, when Mr. Madero was killed At -5 o'clock 1 traced the automobile to the peniten tiary and there saw pools of blood be hind the prison and was told by per sons coming away that there the Presi dent had been shot by the soldiers. "These facts have all been gone over time and again. It is useless for Gen eral Huerta to disclaim responsibility. He swore to support the Madero gov ernment. He committed treason to overthrow that government. These are facts. His statement is scarcely worth discussion." . Colonel 'Romero left Vera Cruz a month ago, visiting the Carranza lega tions in Cuba and Canada before coming to Seattle, where he arrived today. He will sail tomorrow on the Japanese liner Shidzuoka Maru for Japan, to take up his diplomatic duties. He expects to remain' there indefinitely. Colonel Romero said the constitution alists were not worrying about General Huerta's presence in the United States. "We do not look for any further trouble from him," he said. "He is wise enough to keep out of Mexico." CHAMBER TAKES ACTION CONSTITUTION RATIFIED BY TIN AN . IMOlS VOTE OF MEMBERS.

Munly- Dr. Sommer asked Superintendent Alderman what person ill Mr. Alder man's office had said that Dr. Som mer's opposition to Mrs. H. B.

"There must bo some person in your office who is saying these things," de clared Dr. Sommer. "I did not know whether or not Mrs. Blough was in the schools until I -heard this report." "Such a statement never canTe from our office," said the Superintendent.

"FAUST" IS TRIUMPH FOR OPERA SINGERS Olinto Lombardi Scores as Mephistofele, Playing His Part Exceptionally. OTHERS OF CAST GREAT Ingar Meets Every Need in Vocal or Dramatic Effect, as Do All Others at Performance Be fore Baker Audience. "FAUST." Italian Grand Opera in live Acts br Charles Gounod, and Presented at the Baker Theater. Faust G. Insar Mephistofele O. Lombardi Valentine v.- F- Bennyan Wagner U. Rovore Marguerita Tina Schinetti Siebel Luiea Cecchetll Martha Edith Mackie A sardonic, sneering, cynical, cruel, laughing devil! His name is Mephistofele, and he is the star of "Faust." The part was played and sung by Olinto Lombardi. bass, last night, on the stage of the Baker Theater, during a rendition of the opera, and so mag nificent was the portrayal it was one of the best witnessed in this city in recent years. Indeed, it would be dif ficult to name one basso in America who sings and plays Mephistofele with more compelling finish and artis tic effect than Lombardi. Such a well balanced part grips hold of the imagi nation and refuses to be shut out. Al! the other artists also did splendid work, and altogether the presentation of "Faust" is the best so far given in this city by the Italian Grand Opera Company. Ingar's' Worlc Ipressive. Ingar, tenor, made an impressive Faust, and his well-placed, sweet, ring ing voice was heard to splendid ad vantage. It did not matter if the call came from stirring dramatic effect, where one might try conclusions to drown out the playing of the orchestra, but Ingar refused to strain his voice or "force" it. It had always the same agreeable quality, the same even flow of "bel canto." Even in the first duet with Mephistofele. Ingar was not hurrieS or seized with a desire to "drown out" the basso. Ingar re mained, within his place on the stage and was the artist. His singing ot "Salva Dimora" was thrilling. Lombardi was almost terrifying in his -sneering cynicism in the scene where the villagers disarm his magic on them. He bent his supple sword double, and literally seemed to grind it with his teeth. Lombardi was an ardent, experienced sweetheart of Martha and hereby by his byplay was most amusing. .His immense voice wt.s like the sound of a big stop in a pite organ. His makeup cock'scomb and all is worth seeing; Hisdrinking song, "Iio Dell," was superb. Soldier' Character Well Token. Bennyan, as "Valentine," brother of "Margnerita" made a fine-looking sol dier, and was convincing and natural. His opening solo was sung with spirit und his swan song, after the duel with faust, was compelling in its repressed dignity. Madame Schinetti. lyric soprano, who has sung at La Scala, Milan, made a satisfactory and sweet, trusting Marguerita. She looked the shy, simple, pastoral German maiden, dressed in blue and white and with her fair hair like a crown. Schinetti sang the famous "Jewel Song" with fine effect, and her voice is sweet, clear and well placed. Ideally, she is a good-looking Margue rita and has the slight, well-proportioned physique necessary to play the part. Madame Cecchettl Spirited. It is curious that opera companies Invariably play the part of Siebel, the rustic sweetheart or Marguerita, with a contralto wearing male attire and rarely with a tenor. Madame Cecchetti made an impressive feiebel, and sang the part with spirit and good judgment. The part of Martha was presented with a good deal of quiet humor by Miss Mackie. She gave valuable sup port ot Lomoarai, in the garden seen Rovere made a satisfactory Wagner. The opera was well staged, and the scenery admirable. The garden scene was impressive, and the bush, blazing with electric lights, helped the night effect. In the last scene good taste was used. Faust, Marguerita and Mephistofele sang the impressive trio together, and at its conclusion, whei the maiden passes away from the ef fects of what poets call a broken heart, Faust kneels, while his santanic ma jesty is awed by the heavenly vision where erring Marguerita is forgiven This is a saner ending than Mephistofele taking' Faust as his lawful prey and vanishing with him amid cheap rej fire. The orchestra played with much suc cess and afforded the singers every Inspiration. 4 RESCUED FROM STORM Men on Ship 16 Hours in Gale With All Bearings Lost. ATLANTIC CITY: April 5. Douglas H. Adams, principal of the Winchester Boys' School, Longport. and formerly of Harvard College; Bradford Smith, Haverford: Henry Fell, of Philadelphia, and Bayard Jardine. of Atlantic City, reached here after 16 hours on Barne gat Bay -in a small cruiser. The party was overtaken by . a storm which swept the Jersey coast. When bear ings were lost in the terrific gale, the wayfarers anchored rather than take chances of being swept to sea. In, the midst of the gale the cruiser was discovered -by Bert Ridgway, a fisherman, on his way home. Ridgway summoned the coast guards from Har vey Cedars station to- help in saving the boat. NOTES TO KEEP YOU BUSY About Watts, Amperes, Ohms, Ergs, Joules and Dynes.' "Brooklyn, N. Y., Standard-Union. The rate for electricity in Manhat tan has just been reduced from 10 to 8 cents per kilowatt hour. If one not versed in technical terms asks what a kilowatt hourIs he will be told that it Is a unit of energy equal to that done by one kilowat acting for one hour, or. in other words, it is the equivalent of 1.34 horse-power working an hour. It is also generally known that a kilo watt is a thousand watts. But what may a watt be? This takes its name from James Wata the Scotch inventor, and represents work done at the rate of one joule a second or in an, electric current by one ampere under the pressure of one volt. One horse-power is 746 watts, . The latter two terms are better known than the former. The volt is the unit of electromotive force, or that force which applied to a conductor with a resistance of one ohm will pro duce a current of one ampere. An am pere, which term preserves the name of a French electrician, is the prac tical unit"" of electrical current. An ohm, from a German scientist of that name, is the practical unit of electrical resistance. , To revert now to the joule, which should be pronounced as "ou" in our, but in this country is usually called "jooI.",ls derived from the surname of an English physicist. This is a unit of energy equal to 10.7 ergs. An erg in its turn represents the amount of work performed by a dyne working through a distance of one centimeter, or two fifths of an inch. A. dyne is a unit of force, which, acting on a gram for a second, gives it a velocity of a centi meter a second, the equivalent of the j torce exertea Dy a milligram weignt under the influence of gravity. In the -electrical vocabulary the nuanfitv nf elen.trleitv (VknvvvpH i r nna seennri hv the current nrnHmAH r,v an I electromotive force of one volt acting in a circuit, with a resistance of one ohm is termed a coulomb, from a French electrician of that name. It was formerly called a weber from a German professor, and is also termed a maxwell from an English physicist; unlike the examinations in the school system here called Maxwells from the superintendent of education, a former resident of Brooklyn, now living in Flushing. PARENTS ARE BLAMED DEUXftVEXCV EXPLAIXEU TO WIS CONSIST CtlB BY MR. CATIONS. Committee Named to Arrange for Fes tival Booth Plans for County Entertainment Are Laid. "T'aek of delinquent children and broken home is the faulty marriage tie," said Judge W. X. Gatens before the members of the Wisconsin Society in Cotillion hall Thursday night. "Men and women must realize the seriousness of the marriage vow before it Is taken. It Is the borne where the father and mother fight like "cat and! dog that turns out the delinquent child. The parents must work together or the child will pay the penalty." Judge Gatens' address was heard by 200 members of the society. A committee was appointed to ar range a booth for the Wisconsin head quarters during the Rose Festival. A - Wisconsin day next Summer was planned for, all former residents of Wisconsin in the county to participate in a clam bake. The musical programme included: Vocal selection, "O Sweet With Flowers" (Del Riego), by Miss Hazel Bradford; duet. "Flow Gently Deva" (Parry), Miss Bradford and Dr. Clem ent B. Shaw; duet.

DARK TOWN PLAN FOILED Engineer at Power Plant Refuses to Pull Switches at Command. HACK ENS ACK, Is. J.. April '12. Three masked men knocked on the door of the electric light plant at Park Ridge early one morning and when it was opened by Engineer Kdward Griesch they shoved their way in and backed him up against the wall at the point of a pistol. , "Say, young fellow, turn off all the lights in town a while," one of them said. We've got a little work to do." Griesch, who is 23 years old, gasped a bit and blurted out: "You go to hell!". "That so? Well, "we'll give you ten minutes to make up your mind." "Then," said Griesch afterward, "they went through my clothes and got $9.60, while one of the men disconnected the telephone wires. Next they rummaged through the closet and found J360. my savings, which I had in my coat. When the ten minutes was up they seemed undecided what next to do. but I had made up my mind that I'd let them feed me to the dynamo before I'd pull those switches. They waited 15 minutes and then knocked me down and tied me up with strips of tarpaulin. A gag was stuck in my mouth and they left me alone while they went over and looked at the switches. They cursed me because I wouldn t tell them which ones to pull but they seemed afraid to touch them." After fussintr around half an hour the three men went out. Griesch Anally rui rin or ine gag ami men my on the floor until 6:30 o'clock. Superintendent M. Vernon Smith looked out of his win dow about th-in and saw that the lights were still b lrni.ig. He tried to get the plant by telephone, but could not, and while he was trvinjr Frank English went in und found Griesch trussed. The engineer could not give a-de scription of the men because of the handkerchiefs thiy wore over the lower parts of their faces. They seemed to be strangers In town, because they asked him for directions how to reach the two hotels and the tax collector's orriee.
