MONTEREY NEXT OBJECTIVE POINT Villa Expects Little Resist- ance Will Be Offered. EXPULSION OF SPANIARDS Rebel Commander Insists He Was Justified in Deporting the Six Hun- dred Persons Now En Route From Torreon to Juarez. Torreon, April 8—While messages are belng received from the com- manders of 8,000 Constitutionalists now operating between Torreon and Monterey and Saltillo, nothing has been made public as to whether or not General Refugia Velasco and his retreating federal army and the great cayalcade of civilian cientificos ac- companying the federals have been captured. General Pancho Villa, commander of the Constitutionalist army, said that Monterey would be the next city to be attacked and that he did not expect any such resistance from the federals as he met with-at Torreon. The refugee train, carrying 600 Spaniards, who were ordered deport- ed from this city by General Villa, has left Gomez Palacio and is due to arrive in Juarez Thursday morning. Villa insists he is right in his ex- pulsion of the Spaniards, on the ground that, unlike citizens of other foreign countries, the Spaniards not only exploit the native Mexicans, but also humiliate them whenever they can. CAROTHERS PRAISES VILLA American Consular Agent Reports on| Battle of Torreon. Kl Paso, April 8.—George C. Caro- thers, special representative of the state department of the United States with General Villa’'s army, who has arrived in El Paso from Torreon, filed his report of the recent two weeks’ battle resulting in the capture of Tor- reon by the Constitutionalist army to Secretary of State Bryan. Carothers is loud in his praise of General Villa both during the battle and since and says that General Vil- la’s handling of the situation, with the exception of the expulsion of 600 Spaniards from Torreon, has been all that could be desired by citizens of foreign countries. Rebels to Use Gulllotine. Juarez, Mex., April 8.—The guillo- tine has made its appearance in Mex- ico and a new form of execution, de- capitation, confronts the enemies of the Constitutionalists in the state of San Luis Potosi. Near Conception del Oro a homemade guillotine has been erected by rebel mechanics in the corps commanded by General Eu- laHo Gutierrez, who is in this' city conferring with Carranza. MUST UNDERGO OPERATION Militant Suffragette Who Slashed Fa mous Painting Released. London, April 8.—May Richardson, the militant suffragette who was sen- tenced to six months’ imprisonment on March 12 for damaging Velasquez “Rokeby Venus” in the nationl gal lery, was released from the Holloway jail to undergo an operation for ap pendicitis. The operation had been recommended by her own doctor last autumn. The authorities have granted her six weeks in which to recover from the operation, but will extend the pe: riod if the patient’s condition should make it necessary. Miss Richardson, who has:' served less than a month of her sentence, has promised to remain in a hospital or sanatorium until the expiration of her leave of absence. DUE TO MARITAL TROUBLE Paris Inspector of Police Kills Intb mate Friend. Paris, April 8.—Maurice Delacroix, an inspector of police, shot and killed his comrade and intimate friend, In spector Raymond Dupin, at police headquarters here.

The two officers met at headquarters as usual and after reporting to Chief Inspector Le Breton left his office together. As the two inspectors descended the stairs Delacroix, without warning, drew his revolver and ‘shot Dupin five times, killing him instantly. Delacroix then returned to the chiet inspector’s office and surrendered. STRIKERS ARE DISSATISFIEL Many Ohio Mine Workers Will Retury to Homes in Europe.

CRISIS IS _NEAR IN JAPAN Emplra in Confusion by Fallure of Premier to Form New Cabinet. Tokio, April 8.—The Japanese em: pire has been thrown into a condition of utter political confusion by the in- ability of Viscount Keigo Kiyoura to form a cabinet to replace that under! the premiership of Count Yamamoto. The viscount informed the ‘emperor that he had been compelled to give up the task entrusted to him. All the political groups as well as the navy have virtually gome on strike, - S - DELAYS NAMING FEDERAL BOARD President Has Made No Se- lect_ions as Yet. POLITICIANS ARE BARRED Executive Desires to Secure Two Bankers of Experience, Two Busi- ness Men With a Knowledge of Finance and One Economist. ‘Washington, April 8.—By the time final steps toward the réorganization ot the twelve federal reserve banks have been taken, which is expected to be within another month, President Wilson will send. to the senate the names of -five men, who, with the gecretary of the treasury and the comptroller of the currency, will com- pose the federal reserve board and put into operation the nation’s new currency system. The president to date has not de- termined on a single name. He has made no offers and really has not be- gun Individual consideration to any extent. He has before him data con- cerning a long list of men who have been recommended to him as worthy of places on the board. Few people, perhaps less than a halt dozen, know just what names are be- fore the president, but it is under stood that some of the biggest men in the country are on the list. One of the reasons for extreme secrecy is the uncertainty whether th.se whe eventually will be offered places on the board will accept. Would Mean Sacrifices. Some of the men being considered receive salaries of $25,000 and $30, 000 a year in their present positions in the financial and business world and would have to make sacrifices to take the salary of $12,000 allowed members of the board. The president has not made up his mind definitely on the character of the personnel of the board, but there is reason to believe that two men of banking experience, two men of the business world, with a knowledge of finance and recognized ability, and one economist will be named. One thing is certain, the men wha are on the president’s eligible list are not prominent in politics. Mr. Wil son has determined that political con siderations shall not weigh in his se lections. The president realizes the difficulty of his task and his friends are im- pressing upon him the necessity for making the first federal reserve board a standard for the future of the coun try’s financial .system. COUNTY SEEKS KIDNAPPER Men Who Deported Preacher May, Face Charge of Robbery. Denver, April 8.—An investigation into the kidnapping of Rev. Otis L. Spurgeon from his hotel in Denver Sunday night insituted by the authori. ties of Adams county, where he was beaten and turned loose, gave promise of interesting developments. It was intimated that the county authorities were searching for evidence that might result in the filing of criminal charges. It was said that a charge of kidnapping would lie in the county to which Spurgeon was taken and that information that money had been tak. en from the minister, if substantiated, would furnish a basis for a robbery charge. THREE PERSONS ARE KILLED Jump From Elevator When Operator Loses Control. New York, April 8.—Hysterical when the operator lost control of an elevator, causing it. to plunge up and down the shaft, two women and a man jumped to death and several were injured.

Washington, April 8.—Fifteen days of public hearings beginning April 9 on the Sims bill to repeal the Pan- ama tolls exemption were decided up- on by the senate canals committee. Administration supporters pressing for a minimum of delay in getting the Sims bill out of committee professed to be satisfied with the plan for fifteen days of hearings, provided added time was not reserved for consideration of the bill after hearings are over. The controversy continued to eclipse interest in all other business in the senate chamber. :+'+++++++++++++++ %+ NOTHING BUT PRAISE FOR : HEROIC DESERTER. * Paris, April 8—“The only " 4 punishment I should like to % see imposed is that he serve # France as he served Greece,” % was the announcement of At- : torney Alix at the courtmartial kS of John Corinthious, a Greek, who deserted from the foreign legion to fight for the land of his birth in the Balkan war.

PICKETING HELD UNLAWFUL Jutges Rule Against Waitre Chicago Strike, Chicago, April 7.—Picketing - by union waitresses in front of a restau- rant, against which a boycott has been declared, was declared unlawful by three judges of the circuit court, who ordered th- picketing stopped. At the same time it was ruled that the waitresses might continue to pub- lish notices “that the restaurant in question was nonunion, that it was unfair and that a strike was on agalinst it.” The decision said evidence submit- ted"by the waitresses showed that the Chicago Restaurant Keepers' associa. tion had agreed to boycott labor unions, but such a boycott was not unlawful.
