In pursuance of their vote to strike unless their demand for an eight-hour day was granted the men went to the mills, started the fires, then walked out. The strikers number about 450. Should the strike be long continued it is believed the mills, employing 25,000 operatives, would be forced to shut down, owing to the law which prohibits the operation of a manufac- turing establishment for more than one week without licensed firemen. The firemen have heretofore worked twelve hours a day and seven hours a week. Before voting to strike the union rejected the compromise offer from the manufacturers of a sixty- hour week with two days off in seven.

Pittsburg, Nov. 18.—Factories, mills and business houses along the rivers escaped damage from the sudden rise in the Allegheny river and are pre- pared to combat the fiood in the Mo- nongahela, now at its highest point. Heavy snowfall in the mountainous section of West Virginia, followed by an unusually heavy rainfall, has caused the greatest flood in twenty-five years on the upper Monongahela. Weston and Grafton, W. Va, report streets inundated. Railroad tracks and business streets in Fayette, Pa, are under water. Flat boats were used at Weston to convey the bodies of Charles Ward and fiis son George to the cemetery. Father and son were drowned. Sufficient warning of the flood in the Monongahela has been sent to all points by the weather bureau and lit- tle damage is expected to result even should the predicted stage be exceed- ed. Thieves Get $20,000 In Gold. Paris, Nov. 18.—Clever thteves suc- ceeded in extracting ingots of gold valued at $20,000 from a consignment of $1,000,000 while it was on the way from Constantinople to Paris last week. The gold was sent by the Im- perial Ottoman bank of Constantinople to the Ottoman bank here in forty cases, ir~* bound and sealed.

FUTURE IS UNCERTAIN ‘ Whether United States Embassy Is to | Remain or Be Immediately With- drawn Appears to Be Unknown to| Even the American Charge. Mexico City, Nov. 18.—The report is current that General Huerta intends to resign on the convening of congress in regular session on Thursday. It | was based on the alleged declaration of a member of the new chamber of deputies. None of the newspapers, whether published in English or Spanish, pub- lished more than the briefest dis- patches touching the situation. In none was indication given of the in- tentions of Washington toward Mexi- co. Whether the United States embas- sy is to remain or be immediately withdrawn appears to be a matter of which Nelson O’Shaughnessy, the American charge d'affaires, himself is uncertain. The staff of the embassy is ready to leave at a moment’s no- tice. There was, considerable gossip in political circles of further changes in the Mexican cabinet. General Rure- liano Blanquet, the minister of war, is said to have had a misunderstand- ing with President Huerta which may cause him to leave his post. With the departure of Manuel Gar- za Aldape, late minister of the inte- rior, foreigners here feel that the cabi- net has lost one of its most level headed members, an official whose moderation could be depended upon. His successor has not yet been chosen. HUERTA IS GOING AHEAD Considers Correspondence With the United States at an End. Mexico City, Nov. 18.—General Hu- erta regards his part in the recent ex- change of communications with the United States as finished. He ex- pects to find no difficulty in consum- mating his plan to bring his new con- gress to full organization shortly and he continues planning his military campaigns and carrying out his poli- cies of pacification. What further move may be taken, at Washington is a question which neither the Mexicans nor the foreigners here find an easy one to answer, but there is noticeably an increasing ex- pression of opinion that the United States would continue her “hands off” policy. This was not a predomi- nating belief, but those who expressed it pointed out that there was an ele- ment at Washington which would be contented to see the federals and Constitutionalists play their own game to the finish, the recent taking . of Juarez by the rebel forces being cited @s perhaps an encouragement of such a disposition at Washington. It is reported unofficially that Chi- huahua has been captured. The war department, however, has little in- fcrmation regarding the military oper- ations, especially those in the North, in which the rebels are said to be victorious. The situation about Tux- pam, the center of the oil industry, ie described as acute. The rebels are urging the foreigners to cap their wells and leave them, as the rebels don’t propose to leave an unrestricted supply of fuel oil for the railroads nor to enable the government to derive revenue from that source. The exodus of foreigners, especially Americans, continues. The trains to Vera Cruz are jammed. It is assert- ed at the American embassy that no new instructions have beep received. REFUGEES IN MEXICO CITY Many Foreigners Reach Capital From the Interior. Mexico City, Nov. 18.—Many Ameri- can citizens reaching here from small- er towns in the interior of Mexico de- clare that the situation has reached its most acute stage. A number of business concerns here, whose head- quarters are abroad, have received cabled instructions to send the women and children of their employés out of the federal capital. All the ministers of foreign coun- tries are still here and it is not antici- pated that any of them will leave their posts even in case of interven- tion. Admiral von Hintz, the German min- ister, declares that he believes there is no reason for anxiety. “A plan is being considered,” he said, “by which armed intervention will most surely be avoided.” President Wilson Hopeful. Washington, Nov. 18.—President Wilson does not regard the Mexican situation as requiring the closing of the American embassy. Discussing reports to that effect he said Charge O'Shaughnessy neither had been giv- en his passports nor had been told to come back. While details as to per- sons had changed, yet the main cir- cumstances emained substantially the same as when the president previous- ly expressed a favorable view of the situation. yIEW WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 49, 1913 Said Bulgarian Ruler Intends to Abdicate. ing to well informed circles in Coburg and Berlin, that his abdication of the throne in favor of his son is possible and even probable. The king is residing incognito at the palace in Coburg. He spent the morning in prayer at the graves of his ancestors. Austrian statesmen are doing their utmost to prevent his proposed sur- render of the throne, because they consider Crown Prince Boris likely to be influenced by the element friendly to Russia. King Ferdinand at the same time is receiving little encouragement in Ger- many. Emperor William and the German government have expressed themselves as openly friendly to Greece. It is understood that when King Ferdinand expressed a desire to come to Berlin he was given an in- timation that such a visit would be useless. REBELS CONTINUE T0 SHOOT PRISONERS Federals Taken at Juarez Ex- ecuted by Captors, El Paso, Tex., Nov. 18—The execu- tion of federal prisoners begun by “Pancho” Villa when he captured the city of Juarez is not ended. According to Villa’s lieutenants many more federal officers and sol- diers of the federal volunteer army will face firing squads. Only the lives of enlisted men in the federal regu- lars will be spared, and then only on condition that they take the oath to support the Constitutionalist cause and enlist in the rebel ranks. The most important executions were those of Juan Cordova, chief of the Juarez secret police, and Pablo Ebave, a police official. These were peculiarly atrocious. Neither of the men was blindfolded, according to wit- nesses, and both were marched to the ceremony, where open graves had been dug. The men stood at one end of the graves and when rebel soldiers fired the bodies fell into the holes and were immediately covered up almost before life had ceased. i Ebave’s wife pleaded piteously with Villa to spare her husband’s life, but he refused. To Rescue German Fugitives. Berlin, Nov. 18.—Adminal Paul von Hintz, the German minister in Mexi- co, has ordered the cruiser Nuernberg, now on the Pacific coast of Mexico, to proceed to San Blas and take on board | any German fugitives from the city of Tepic, now threatened by insurgents. Private steamers are to be chartered if the Nuernberg is unable to reach San Bias in time. EEEEEEEE EEE EEE EES TRIES FOUR METHODS OF ENDING LIFE, San Francisco, Nov. 18.— Starving, drowning, shooting and an attempt to throw him- self under the wheels of a street car were the four meth- ods adopted by Francis Bud- beus, a German youth, to end his life here. In all he was unsuccessful. He is now be- hind the bars pending investi- gation as to his sanity. EPEEEEEEEE EE EEED $500,000 for Hog Cholera. Washington, Nov. 18.—Senator Poin- erene has introduced a bill to appro- priate $500,000 for combating the hog cholera. He declared that the loss from that disease this year would ag- $50,000,000.

Acting Majority Leader Johnson of Kentucky said he had received renewed assurances from Minority Leader Mann that the lat- ter would no longer insist upon the daily roll call on motions to adjourn. When the Democrats declined to allow the house to recess or to take up routine business Mr. Mann started out to show in the record that the Democrats were not “on the job.” As a result every day the Democrats found it necessary to call the roll in order to adjourn the house. _ __.. ate MRS. EMMA KAUFMANN DEAD Principal in Two Trials for Murder of Her Domestic. Sioux Falls, 8S. D., Nov. 18.—Mrs. Emma Kaufmann, principal in two sen- sational trials for the murder of Miss Agnes Polreis, her domestic, died at the family residence here. Death fol- lowed a general breakdown that be- gan some months ago. Mrs. Kaufmann was arrested in June, 1906, on the charge of having caused the death of her sixteen-year- old domestic by a series of cruelties.
