P o lic y o f D iaz it A d o p te d in D e a lin g W ith E n e m ie s o f G ove rn m e n t — T r o o p s W a tc h B o rd e r. Fling W ashington, D. C.—The proposal for a children’s bureau in the d ep art m ent of commerce and labor to inves tig a te and rep o rt in all m atters affect ing the w elfare of children, was de bated in the senate w ithout action. Senator G allinger opposed the bill, contem plating an unw arranted in tru sion into p riv ate affairs. He discussed criticism s of the reports made by a child labor bureau a few years ago, and said th a t these reports revealed nothing worse than the “ turkey tr o t” dance in vogue in W ashington City. Mr. Heyburn attacked the bill as a discrim ination against the poor and Senator Overman branded it as un necessary. Senator Smith, of Georgia, made his maiden speech in support of the bill. He said it would be of v ast ben efit to children, w ithout in terferin g w ith sta te rights. Senator Bailey attrib u ted the b ill’s popularity to the influence of women, who, he said, should confine th eir a t tention to subjects outside the halls of legislation. “ The more a woman knows about the things she ought to know ,” he said, “ the less she knows about things we are doing h ere .” Senator Stone characterized the bill as inquisitorial and involving unlim ited expenditures. Senator Borah, author of the bill, said th a t the bureau was as much w arranted as many of the ex istin g governm ent offices. DEBEIS VICTORIOUS Oefeal Mexican Rurales and Lib erate Prisoners.

San Francisco— By an action filed in the Superior court here, a London newsboy became a co n testan t for a fortune. The suit, filed by Mrs. Am elia A. D ierks in behalf of E tienne Buillard, a lad whom she found selling papers in London two years ago, reveals the story of the boy’s abandonm ent in P aris, a fte r the death of his m other and the discovery, according to Mrs. D ierks th a t he is the grandson of the late Dennis Hayes, a w ealthy pioneer m ining man of C alifornia and th a t he was restored to his relativ es by the chance m eeting w ith his benefactress in London. The boy’s claim to a share in the H ayes estate of approxim ately $100,- 000 is entered in the su it ju s t filed. Mrs. D ierks found E tienne Buillard, then 12 years old, selling papers in London two years ago. “ You speak like an A m erican,” she said. “ My m other was an A m erican,” re plied the boy. “ She died and I have alm ost forgotten her, b ut she tau g h t me to ta lk .” The boy’s mem ories of his parents w ere vague, b ut Mrs. D ierks learned by investigation, she says, th a t his m other was A nnette Hays, daughter of Dennis Hayes, and th a t she had been m arried to E tienne Buillard, a supposedly w ealthy Frenchman, ag ain st her fa th e r’s wishes, and gone to P aris to live. F u rth e r inquiries re vealed the w hereabouts of an aunt, Mrs. Cecilia Laib, living in San F ran cisco, and E tienne was taken to her by Mrs. D ierks. The luxury of the Laib residence palled on th e boy and he le ft w ith in a week, going to the home of Mrs. D ierks, w ith whom he has since lived.
