Americana Fleeing From Scene of
Trouble KmbaHsiea Aid All
Foreigners in Flight.
City of, Mexico The strictest cen
sorship on all dispatches has been es
tablished in Mexico City.
Government officials took charge of
the cable offices shortly after 5 o'clock
Saturday night and discarded 'me
sai;es of correspondents to their pa
pers. Code messages and all mes
sages containing any expressions
whatever that might bo construed aa a
sign of the important happening in
the capital were confiscated.
Nevertheless several dispatches of a
somewhat detached nature escaped
censorship, and an early bulletin was
flashed through that the armistice, j
signed at 2 o clock Sunday morning-,
had been broken and thut both, sidea
were lighting aavagely.
J he Mexican government was un
able, however, to shut off the offlcia
diHpatches of the diplomatic repreaen
tutives, but as these are sent in ci
pher, there is considerable delay in
translation, and the fear is expressed
that many things may occur in the
Mexican capital detrimental to the
foreign residents before the exact sit
uuiion is learned oy the home govern
mcnta.
Brief diHpatches giving a general
idea of the situation prior to the fresh
outbreak of hostilities were passed but
the government apparently is deter
mined that not a word of the fighting
which has torn the city asunder for
eight days shall be communicated to
the outside world, if that can be pre
vented.

Washington, u. c. Hurried prep
arations were made Sunday in Mexico
City for the flight of American women
and children to the United States.
The American embassy staff and the
committee appointed by Ambassador
Wilson began assembling the women
and children at the embassy. Many
who hitherto had paid no heed to the
warning of the ambassador to leave
the city, now were eager to embrace
any measures which meant their de-
liverance from the panic which has
followed in the wake of a week'B dis
orders.
The easiest way, to safety is via
Vera Cruz, only a short distance by
rail. Once arrived there, the refugees
will have full protection pending the
continuance of their journey by steam
er to American soil.
While preparations for the flight of
the women and the younger members
of the American colony were going
forward, the work of removing all
foreigners Irom the danger zone was
begun and hundreds sought safety.

$700,000 Bank Shipment Taken
Cities Sacked.
San Luis Potosi, Mex. A passenger
train from Tampico, Mexico, was held
up at Las Tablas, a small station half
way to the coast, Dy a band of rebels
led by Cerillo Hermanos. The rebels
went through the express car and se
cured $700,000 in gold and bills which
was being transferred by the National
Bank of Monterey to Mexico City.
The rebels gave no heed to the
second class passengers, but robbed all
the first-class passengers of their arms
and money. Forty-two rebels entered
the train and 30 remained outside.
They proposed to burn the train and
had sprinkled the cars with petroleum,
but the urgent petition of Liccenado
Alfredo Munoz, who was a passenger
and who at one time had defended Her
manos in court, they desisted.
Americans arriving from Charcas, a
town 40 miles north of here, report the
rebels ransacking the town.
Wilson's Daughter Aids.
New York The Russell Sage foun
dation, through its department of rec
reation, has sent letters to the heads
of the various State Federations of
Women's Clubs urging them to begin
campaigns at once to secure legisla
tion authorizing the use of public
schools for social centers.
Misa Margaret Woodrow Wilson,
daughter of President-elect Wilson, is
interested in the movement and is as
sisting in the pereliminary work to
secure the use of all public school
buildings after school hours.
$30,000 in Bullion Lost.
San Francisco The $30,000 in gold
bullion in the safe of the river freight
er H. J. Corcoran, which was sunk re
cently in San Francisco bay in col'
hsion with the passenger steamer
Seminole, is lost. This was deter
mined when John Roach, a diver, ex
plored the capsized hull of the vessel.
The Corcoran drifted, bottom
through the Golden Gate, and
towed back to a wharf by a tug.
New York Judge Says City Has
Many Criminal Associations.
New York A "pickpocket trust,"
and other compact organizations of
criminals exist in this city's under
world, according to testimony of
Judge Swann, of the Court of General
Sessions, a witness before . the alder
manic committee investigating vice
conditions. Pickpockets dispose of
their loot at central "fences" after
being assigned to sections of the city
to ply their trade, and when they are
arrested they are ablejto get bail read
ily and lawyers to defend them. The
"trust" is run like any lawful busi
ness, he declared.
"Many strong associations of crim
inals exist, well organized and con
ducted for the purpose of theft," said
Judge Swann. "There are, however,
many different kinds of associations.
For instance, there is the blackmail
ing association."
To crush these "trusts" Judge
Swann advocated that city detectives
be divided into separate groups, nom
inally known as the homicide group,
bomb-throwing group, and so on.
Referring to the "pickpocket
trust," Judge Swann told of one mem
ber being assigned to Broadway and
Forty-sixth street for five years, rifl
ing pockets and pocketbooks of men
and women in the matinee crowds.
This member was arrested four times
and always the "trust," through its
representatives, came to his defense.

FIFTH DAY'S FIGIIT IS DRAW
Another American Woman Killed
by Flying Shells.
Mexico City Mrs. Greenfield, moth
er of Harry Greenfield, an employe of
the Mexican Light & Power company,
a Canadian corporation, was killed by
a shell in Victoria street during Fri
day's fighting. This makes three wo
men among the foreign victims of the
battle.
Mexico City Without decisive ad
vantage to either the government or
the rebel forces, the fifth day of fight
ing in the capital ended at nightfall
Friday. Firing was continued until
after sundown.
Presidet Madero himself said two
hours earlier that General Huerta
would renew his efforts for the sub
jugation of Diaz immediately and it
was authoritively stated that the gov
ernment forces were planning to take
the rebel positions by assault between
6 and 7 o'clock, but the day's opera
tions came to an end with the federals
only feebly on the aggressive.
It was another day of terror for
hundreds of thousands of non-combatants.
These included large numbers
of foreigners, who could find in no
part of the city a spot free from dan
ger.
PRINCETON GREETS WOMEN
Suffragist Marchers Stagger Into
Town Exhausted.
Princeton, N. J. The staccato yell
of Princeton univeristy, with the ap
pendage, "votes for women! votes
for women ! votes for women!" greet
ed the "army" of suffragists which is
marching to Washington, when it ar
rived here at 7 o'clock Friday night.
The women, 13 strong, had covered

rig and several of them were on the
point of exhaustion when the lights of
the university town twinkled a wel
come.
"General" Rosalie Jones, command

real hardship the day's walk exceeded
anything she had ever experienced.
Corporal" Martha Klatchen, who is

Mexico City Francisco I. Madero!
has been forced out of the presidency, j
He was arrested at the national palace
shortly before 3 o'clock Tuesday after- 1
noon by General Blanquet. Subse-;
quently he signed his resignation. !
General Victoriano Huerta, com-,
mander of the federal troops, was pro
claimed provisional president. j
About the time Madero was seized
by Blanquet, Gustavo Madero, his
brother, the ex-minister of finance, 1
was arrested by General Huerta, who '
was dining with him in a quiet restau- j
rant.
All members of the cabinet were
promptly placed under arrest with the
exception of Ernesto Madero, the un
cle of the presidentwho held the port
folio of finance. He was apprised of j
the intentions against the Madero gov
ernment and made his escape.
From the first it had been known
that General Blanquet was unwilling
to fight. His men were of the same
mind. He held complete command of
them, and it was not doubted they j
would follow him in any adventure,
which they did at the national palace.
The forces, numbering 1000 men, !
were sent to the palace, ostensibly to :
relieve the reserves there. The re
serves were sent into the field. j
An agreement" between Generals
Blanquet and Huerta was reported j
Monday night, but the first intimation
that Blanquet's men had of the new j
role they were to play was shortly be-1
fore the successful stroke was made, i
Blanquet drew his men up in order and
delivered a stirring speech. j
"This inhuman battle must end," j
he said. "The time has come when ;
some drastic means must be taken to J
stop a conflict in which father is kill- j
ing son and brother is fighting against j
brother; when non-combatants are ;
sharing the fate of war and all this :
because of the caprice of one man." !
Blanquet then' issued orders for the
arrest of the president and assigned a
detachment to that duty. Madero ,
soon was a prisoner in his own rooms.
One reason given for the attitude of
General Blanquet from the beginning 1
was the presence of his son in the !
ranks of Diaz.
The American ambassador and the
other foreign diplomats held a confer
ence at the American embassy to dis
cuss the re-establishment of order and
the further protection of foreign resi
dents. The Zocalo, the great plaza in front
of the palace, was feoon jammed with
a delirious crowd, with banners in
scribed "Peace" and "Liberty,"
shouting for Diaz, Huerta, Blanquet j
and Mondragon. j
The women members of the Madero j
family who were in Chapultepec Cas- j
tie were whisked away in an automo- j
bile by friends who had learned of the I
coup at the national palace. Tele- I
grams were immediately sent to the j
governors of the states notifying them !
of the proclamation of Huerta as pro-!
visional president, and also to the mil- j
itary commanders assuring them that :
general elections will be held.
GeneralH uerta made a speech from
the balcony of the palace to the
assembled crowds. He declared that
he had no personal ambition and an
nounced ihimself as military governor
and General Blanquet as military com
mander of the federal district.
It is fully believed that a definite
agreement will be reached between the
rebel forces and General Huerta. The
negotiations will be conducted through
the American embassy.
General Felipe Angeles, who refused
to support the new government, was
placed under arrest.
I
Women Judges Favored.
Chicago Eligibility of women to
the bench and simplification and mod
ernization of law and court procedure
were advocated by' ex-Municipal Judge
Cleland in addressing the Women's
Association of Commerce. "What we
need to promote justice is less refine
ment and more common sense in inter
preting the law," said the speaker.
"We need judges who are learned in
more than the law. I believe that
conditions would be greatly improved
by the election of women as judges
of our courts. "
Warship Strikes Reef.
Caimanera, Cuba The United
States battleship Arkansas ran on a
coral reef 400 yards west of Ceiba
reef at 6 o'clock Friday morning.
Later the warship slipped off the reef
and anchored. How seriously the
Arkansas was damaged has not vet
been ascertained, but water entered
some of her compartments. A sur
vey of the vessel was begun at once.
Taft Refers Liquor Bill.
Washington, D. C. President Taft
has referred the Webb bill regulating
the shipment of liquor into dry states
to Attorney General Wickersham and
Secretary MacVeagh. The fact that
the bill was sent to Mr. Wickersham
was taken to indicate that the presi
dent wanted an opinion on its consti
tutionality. He has told visitors re
cently that he expected to give the
bill much consideration before passing
final judgment upon it.
Long Walk Tests Shoes.
St. Louis Sergeant John M. Walsh,
United States army, has arrived at
Jefferson Barracks on foot, after a
7000-mile tramp, across the continent
and back, under orders, to test army
shoes. The sergeant left New York
April 10, 1912, and is returning from
California. Walsh is wearing the
fourth pair of shoes he is officially
testing.
