A TOO
BILL TO REGULATE
BECOMES A LAW
SAI.KXr, Veil. 22. - lteprchcnlntivj
Cnrkin'N bill to regulate the bunines
of commihhiiMi inoix-luints, after bein
killed by no unfavorable vote in thu
hcnutc when homo of its friends were
absent, was rcconxidered and the bill
was passed by tho decisive xotc of 21
to d but only after tho most stren
uous fiuht of tho session.
Tho effort to defeat reconsidera
tion clime from Senator llert Karrel
of Portland, himself a comiuifsioii
merchant, who, together with some
of tho Front street commission nior
clinuts of Portland, had opposed the
bill in the senate committee. Tho sen
ate was held for in or half an hour
on a call of (he hoiihc to brim; in lite
nhxctit members, mid no business was
transacted of any kind.
This is tho culmination of a fight
that Itntt been put up by the commis
sion men of Portland for the patt
three sessions, in which, until yester
day, Ihoy havo always been success
ful. Two years n-o Senator Siuott,
(now congressman), passed a com
mission merchants' bill in Iho senate,
but tho bill was lost and was not
found until six days after tho scjmoii
adjourned when the clerk found it in
a hunch of dead hills; too Into, and
tiio commission inerelinntu escaped.
This session Senator Hagsdalo in
troduced ft hill; but, nltliough it was
referred to. (ho committee of whioh ho
was chairmnn, it wits found impos
sible to overcome Iho influence of tho
Portland commission men who were
spending money freely to defeat it;
nnd tho bill failed to get out of tho
committee. They wero almost ruo
eesHful in killing tho Catkin bill until
Speukor McArlhur and President Ma
lnrkey enmo to tho aid of tho bill on
recottRidoratiou and tho opposition
gave in.

MKXICO CITY. Feb. 22.Kenlizn
tioii thnt provisional President
lluerta intends to rule over tho re
public with an iron hund wns brought
borne to resident of the cupital to-
day wheu they awakened to find
trooM bivouaced about the streets
und around the national palace. No
explanation wns given for this snd
den move, which it is feared forevnsU
more bloodnbed before trniiquility is
restored.
UiiCTtn Alarmed
General Huertn isnlnrmcd over re
port that nine states have renounced
his government, and be issued orders
todny for the entire federal nnny to
prejKire for nny emergency. Tho
most serious revolt threatened, nnd
the one lluerta most fears, is the new
revolution headed by General Ambro
sia Figueroa, injcetor general of
rurntes. Figueroa has renounced
Huertn and is'now safd to bo Tn Guer
rero with. 10,000 well-armed and well
provisioned troop4:, prepared to
march on the capital.
Itosidouts of the city ure admitted
ly uneasy, nnd, for the first time
since Huertn took up the reins of the
government, were skeptical over his
promise that the task of pacification
would prove simple and short.
Oroico Kipected Soon
General Pascual Orozco is expect
ed to arrive here soon. It is expected
he will espouse the new administra
tion's cause, but General Inec Sulaz.tr
perhaps the second strongest rcbet
leader in northern Mexico, will, it is
believed, flatly refuse to support any
government which has the nppearnnco
of the old regime.
Ileuorts that Juan Sanchez Azenna,
private secretary to former President
Modem, was shot to' death under the
"fugitive taw" were officially denied
today. When Azcoua was captured,
it was said, he carried a bill of ex
change on a Paris bank for 0,000,000
pesos. His arrest occurred at Apizaco
while fleeiutr from the "apital.
Madero's Kate Uncertain
Depite efforts by President Tuft
to save Francisco Madero from exe
cution, Senoru Madero was apprehen
sive toduy over the fato of her hus
bnnd. She was closeted with tlte for
mer presidcut for an hour yesterday
and left the guard house in tears.
Reports received here today say
that Porfirio Diaz will return to
Mexico City April 2. His friends plan
to celebrate his return with n fete
unequalled in the history of the city.
F.ucmie of tho deposed preldent
are urging Huerta to execute Mudero.
suying he is u menace to peace. His
guards sav Mudero is calmer today,
believing that the government will not
dure order his execution in tho face
of the American government's oppo
hition. Senoru Mudero has gone into
seclusion.
Americans gathered hero today nt
tho United States embassy and
mnrehed to George Washington's
monument whereon they placed n
wreath.

the legislature when the measures aro

nor has flvo days from the time bills
are received to approve, file or veto.
Until they aro received, the five day

Tho opposition leaders, generally

RESULT OF PLOT
KL PASO, Texas, Feb. 22. Fran
cisco I. Mudero, deposed president, of
Mcxicq, is marked for dcuth as the
result of u conspiracy, secretly sanc
tioned by government officials, ac
cording to dispatches received hero
today from Mexico City. ,
Mudero, the dispatches said, will bo
ussasMiiuted before be can leave th'J
republic nlthoui'h ho will be given the
formality of a trial. Present plans,
it is alleged, call for the former preoi
dent to be acquitted of the crimes
with which he is ehurged to sntisfy
the United Slates government. Then
the conspirators plan to kill Madero
in such a way thnt the crime wilt bo
charged either to popular anger or to
an individual rebel.
Volunteers at the gitrrisou at

anus and aro guurded toduy by regu
