A GREWSOME PLEA
for PROinnrnox.
Auburn, Wash., Nov. 10.
The people of this city are re
covering from the shock of a
grewsome plea for prohibition.
During the election, H. N. Con
nell, a local undertaker and
leader of the prohibitionists,
propped up two coffins In his
shop window near the polling
booth In which were two men
dead. Over the coffins was a
placard saying "These men died
of drink." Auburn went wet
nevertheless.
I
E
Rome, Nov. 10. The application of.
Count Honl Do CiiHtelliuie of Frunce
for Papal confirmation of his civil di
vorce from Anna Gould was received
today at the Vatican. It Is reported
tho step Is preliminary to part of
Bonl's plan to marry Anne Morgan, j
daughter of the American money kins.
It was reported unofficially that his
application is based on the ground
that the Castellane-Uould marriage
was Illegal ecclesiastically since the
bishop of the diocese In which it was
performed was not notified. It is
understood high Vatican officials are ',
boosting for Count Bonl and are tak- ;
Ing steps to secure favorable action
from Pope Pius. !

at tho special election In Washington

Charleston, S. G, Xov. 10. Presi
dent Taft boarded the battleship Ten
nessee today and at high tide the
big war vessel, accompanied by the
cruiser Montana as a convoy, sailed
out of the harbor with the canal zone
as lis destination. President Taft Is
making the trip to the isthmus to ob
tain information on which to make
his recommendations to congress for
legislation regarding the canal.
One of the most Important ques
tions to be decided by the president
'relates to the force of erovernment he
i ' - "
will recommend that congress should
adopt for the canal zone. Colonel
Goethals, the chief engineer, has rec.'
ommended that a military govern
ment for the entire zone -be adopted,
instead or the present system of gov
ernment by executive order.
Congress will also have Its atten-
tion called to the establishment of a
toll rate over the canal. This is an
Important question, as on Its solution
depends largely whether many steam
ship companies will use the canal or
transfer earsroes bv rail over thp Te

les now do.
The president will also consider the
question of the fortification of the ca
nal zone. It Is practically certain that
he will repeat his recommendation
for gn appropriation of $2,000,000
for this purpose.

NEW YORK COAL
DRIVERS STRIKE
New York, Xov. 10. Union drivers
of coal wagons struck today, and be
fore nightfall it is confidently ex
pected that Xew York and vicinity
will be in the throes of the bigtst
general teamsters strike In her his
tory. A call was issued for a mass
meeting of all the unions for tonight.
A fuel famine already threatens the
city. The strike turned favorable to
the strikers today when Mayor Gay
nor ruled all unlicensed drivers will
be arrested. The police seized a num
ber of express wagons and took the
unlicensed drivers to Jail.
The express companies met this
move with an application for 300 li
censes to be distributed by them am
ong such drivers as they may be able
to employ. This was countered by
State Labor Commissioner Williams
who announced he would take a hand
in the case unless the companies ar
bitrated. Williams stated he would
evoke the state law permitting him
to examine the books of the compan
ies to determine their ability to pay
Increased wages if they continued to
show a disposition to ignore the pub
lic's demand for a settlement of the
strike. If a general strike is called
every kind of wagon from taxicabs to
garbage wagons will be affected.

COMMITTEE INVESTIGATES
TO ASCERTAIN REASON
Ship Subsidy Question Will Also be
Gone Into Intimated Foreign Ship
ping Interests are Responsible for
I-ack of Marine.
New York. Xov. 10. The commit
tee which is investigating the mer
chant marine and ship subsidy ques
tions, with a view to reporting to
congress next month, began a new-
probing In New Tork today. Friends
and foes of the merchant marine pro
ject are becoming bitter In their
charges and counter-charges, and the
committee Is likely to receive some
sensational testimony.
At the present time, it was pointed
out today, approximately ninety per
cent or $3,150,000,000 of the annual
foreign trade of the United States is
carried in foreign bottoms. This bus
iness, it is alleged, means that $300 -000,000
Is taken out of the country
each year for foreign freights. Eng
land and Germany get the bulk of this
tribute. Advocates of an American
ship subsidy assert that the foreign
steamship interests are actively op
posing such a measure and have'spent
millions of dollars ln preventing Its
passage. A number of congressmen,
it is hinted today, have become pos
sessed of considerable stock In for
eign steamship companies, and they
may be summoned to appear before
the committee to explain the matter.
Opponents of a ship subsidy, on the
other hand, declare that great Amer
ican financial Interests are back of
the movement to 'develop the mer
chant marine of the nation." and that
a subsidy, while taking millions out
of the people's treasury, would work
no public good, but would onlv add
to the wealth of the captains of in
dustry who are now so patriotically
demanding that congress aid In their
projects.
rREPENT "FROM! CAVE
LIFE TO CTTY LIFE"
Boston, Nov. 10. Real full-blood
Injuns will participate In the first
presentation tonight of the spectacle
rTom Cave Life to City Life," by
way of illustrating the vnst differ
ence that exists between the painted
savage and the Boston highbrow. The
dramatic pageant Is a feature of t'.ie
"civic advance campaign" planned
by the Boston-1916 organization, and
will serve as a fitting Inaugural for
the movement which has for Its ob
ject the spreading of the name and
fame of Boston. The pageant will he
staged In the Arena and will be re
peated three nights. Thirty Iroquois
Indians have been secured to Illus
trate the primitive life that existed
In the wigwams and tepees which
once occupied the site of the city of
beans and culture. A'nother elaborate
scene, In which 250 men and women
will participate, will reproduce a re
ception by Governor Wentworth dur
ing colonial times. This antique so
cial affair will end with the minuet
and other old fashioned dances.
Mayors of all the cities of New
England have been asked to co-operate
In tle "civic advance campaign"
and many of them will be the guests
of Boston-IMS at a meeting to con
sider problems In practical municipal
administration.

Mexico. Nov. 10. Troops are
guarding the streets of this city to
day following the riots of yesterday
and last night in which the Ameri

demonstration made against the Am

of whom were Americans, are report
ed killed, but these reports are un
confirmed. Three Mexicans were kill

the mob. The American ambassador
has demanded protection for the Am

murder of an American woman.

San Antonio, No. 10. Mexican
revolutionary leaders today state
that Mexico is In the hands of a i in
cipient revolution and that the out
break against Americans was merely
a blind to give the revolutionists a
chance to get their forces together.
According to private advices receiv
ed here from Mexico city, the troops
are really guarding the city against
the revolutionists. Revolutionists
here claim they have authentic infor
mation that two Americans, one a
school girl, and the second a young
man, were killed. The girl was struck
on the head by a rock hurled through
a street car window by a rioter. The
Rodenguese Incident Is looked upon
merely as a pretense for an outbreak.
