Possibility That Huerta May
Resist and War Will Be
Commenced.
I UNITED I'EESS LEADED WIBI.
Washington, Nov. 21. The Wash
ington administration today ordered
protection given to Daniel and Eva
risto Madero and other anti-Hueristas,
who took refuge in America's Vera
Cruz consulate.
It was reported that General Maaa,
Mexican military commander at Vera
Cruz, had demanded their surrender,
but this wag sot confirmed.
On the strength of Lord Co wd ray's
request that America protect the Brit
ish Pearson syndicate interests uear
Tuxpan, there seemed, a posibility that
United States marines would be landed,
but it was said ths would nqt neces
sarily be an act of war.
May Besist Marines.
It was rumored that President Huerta
lad ordered General Haas to resist an
American landing at Vera Cruz. It was
also rumored that ho had told Maas to !
lot the marines land if thoy liked.
A fuel famine was near in Mexico
City, business was prostrated, and
thousands were suffering from cold and
hunger.
Mexico's congress was scheduled to
consider the validity of the rocent elec
tion this afternoon. Many thought Hu
erta unlikely to have the lawmakers
grant the big concessions sought by
is
soarsons, the syndicate having
to make the English government stick
to an anti-AmerLan Mexican policy.
Caxranza Too Late.
Goneral Carranza was said to have
triod to reopen negotiations with Wil
liam Bayard Halo, but failed boeause
lie was so late about.
Thore was another entirely uncon
firmed report that the rebels had cap--turcd
Tanipico.
Joseph II. C'honto made a spoech
urging Americans to support President
Wilson's Mexican policy "through
thick and thin," and the president
wrote thanking him.
Taken on Battleship.
Vera Cruz, Mex., Nov. 21. Evarlsto
and Daniel Madero, brothers of tho late
President Madero, wore taken from the
United States eonstilnte on board tho
American battleship Rhode Island in
the harbor here today.
The two Madero brothers wero ac
companied by four relatives, also want
ed by the Mexican authorities.
The fugitives' transfer from the con
sulate to a plaeo of safety afloat was
in direct defiance of a domand from
the commander of the Mexican military
force at Voiti Cms for their surrender
to him.
There had been seme hints that force
might bo used in taking them from the
consulate, and it was not only out of
consideration for the Madoros' safoty,
but also to prevent such an incident,
which must mean an Immodinto interna
tional crisis, that it was deemed boot
to put tho refugee In an entirely safe
place. They will le held on board the
Rhode Island pending further Instruc
tion from Washington.
Tho supposition was that they would
be turned over to a merchant vessel st
sea.
Consul Canada personally accompa
nied the sextet from tho consulate to
tho battleship under escort of a detail
of fix American marines.
Tho Madoros wero arrested In Mon
terey some time ago, chargod with plot

Seattle Jurist Who Jailed
Many for Contempt Takes
Rap at Gompers.
THINKS IT NOT BRAVE
Says Defiant Statement Was Made Out
of Beach of Judges, One of Them
Being Dead.
CNIT1C6 PRESS LEASED WIBB.l
Sacramento, Cal., Nov. 21. The fol
lowing lotter, written by Superior Judge
John E. Humphries, of Seattle, who re
cently broke into the national limelight
because of his action in arresting and
jailing Seattle free speech advocates,
was recoived here today by the editor
of the Sacramento Star.
"I have a copy of your paper con
taining tho headline 'Gompers Throws
Down the Gauntlet to the Judge.'
, " 'He advises the delogates to; the
American Federation of Labor conven
tion to say anything they may have to
say about judges, though it may con
cern a Judge Humphries, a Judge Jof
frios or a Judge Wright.'
Says It Took Bold Men.
"Of course, it took a bold man to
make such a declaration. Firet, Gomp
ers was not within a mile of Judgo
Humphries when he made this declara
tion and as Judge Jeffries has been
dead for 250 years, there was not any
danger of his being disturbed on ac
count of the remarks made about him.
"Justice Wright was in Washington
City at the timo, and Gompers in Seat
tle, consequently there was no danger
of Justice Wright hearing his declaim
tion. ' " " v "1 ;; '
"It is further stated in the Star ar
ticle that Gompers 'nit the bell.'
Could Not Awaken Wright.
'Of course, he 'hit the boll,' but
when he hit tho bell it could not wake
old Judge Jeffries, who died 250 years
ago; it could not wake Wright, who
was at that time in Washington City,
and as it was more than a milo from
the court of Judge Humphries, and ho
did not hear it, and had no right to re
ply to it, or to be prosont, it did not af
feet him.
But it wns a bold doclarntion, any.
way, and the man should have great!
credit for his boldness and for his
wisdom, In attacking tho poor old dead
judgo, and the others who wore equal
ly beyond hearing of the attack."

the old registration is no longer any

over to the city authorities. Ono of the
arguments mado Is that tho Inst ruls

It makes registration a pro requslto to
