Juarez, Mex., April 7.—The guill 4ine has made its appearance in Me: ico, and a new form of execution con- fronts the enemies of the constitution- alists in San Luis Potosi, it was learned today. At Conception Del Oro., a home-made guillotine been erected. It was built by mechanics in the corps commanded by s General Eulalio Gutierrez, who Is now in this city conferring with Car- ranza.

General Gutierrez says he will leave Juarez in two or three days to re- sume his campaign against San Luis J Potosi. “My outposts are within eight kilometers of the capital of that state, and I expect to capture the place this time. Fourteen thousand men are under arms in the state and I can send them all against the city. And when I have taken it I hope to find my sister and her family. If they have been mistreated the guillotine is ready for action.” News Is False. 5 Mevico, City, April 7—aAll the news- -papers in Mexico City todgy publish a Washington despatch relating that Rear Admiral Frank Fletcher has ad- vised the state department that the news circulated of the fall of the city of Torreon is false. The El Diario today says: “From an , international point of view President Wilson’s policy toward Mexico has suffered ‘a blow which not only in the United States but in Europe has had a. cruel ring for the good name of American diplomaey.” Revenge Is Cause. Desire for revenge is. responsible for the appearance of the guillotine in Mexico.

ELECTION CLOSELY CORTESTED Mayor Cheney’s Friends: Claim His Re-setio3 by Large . Majarity. Hartford, April 7.—This city. is ex- periencing its. annusl munieipal elec- tion today and it is the warmest and most closely contested that Hartford has ever. known, particularly relation to the mayoralty. Party feel- ing ran high among the democrats in the selection of an nominee for mayor and it has increased steadily since. Indications are.that the largest vote ever polled at a city election will be shown when the polls close at 5 o’clock. Friends of Mayor Cheney, renomi- nated by the republicans, claim his re-election at figures ranging from 150 up to 800 and the managers of the campaign of Joseph H. Lawler, democrat, seem just as confidént that it will go his way. Two years ago Cheney won by 649. Vote Very Heavy. The polls opened at 6 a. m., and between that hour and 8 o’clock about one-quarter of the total registration, which is approximately 20,000, had voted. At 10 a. m. the count on the machines in the ten wards showed that nearly a third of the voters had turned out. There was another rush between 12 and 1 o’clock from the shops and offices. The court of com- mon council is now democratic and only a landslide would change its complexion. ‘Women have turned out in force to vote on school questions. The socialists are expected to show some gain as the result of an aggres- sive campaign of the past two or three months, s - Trouble in Second. For the most part there was little trouble, but early in .the day the sec- ond ward polling place was the scene of a mixup in which Councilman Wil- liam Raphael, and members of the board of selectmen were escorted out- side by a policeman at the request of the moderator, who asserted that they attempted to interfere with him and dictate to him. More than 150 automobiles were used by both parties in getting out the vote. REPUBLICAN CAUCUS 10 BE STORM CENTER (Continued from First Page.)’ of No. 7 Trinity street, J. W, Mills of No, 216 South Main street. Democratic Convention. At the democratic convention the nomination for mayor will most likely be tendered to Mayor Joseph M. Hal- loran, William F. Troy and Council- man Harry Collins will contest for the nomination of tax collector. 1In all probability the party will endbrse Frederick S. Chamberlain and Han- ford L. Curtis for city treasurer and comptroller respectively, as these of- ficials will be renominated by the're- publican party. It is predicted that Dr. J. S. Martin will be renominated for the schoal committee. Attorney H. P. Roche is considered the most likely candidate for the other position on the school committee. Denis Riordan, the pres- ent incumbent, has decided not to run again on account of ill health and, it is said, Dr. D, W. O’Connell and James T. Connor, democratic town committeeman from the fourth ward, have withdrawn from the race. K. B. Alling, who returned = yesterday from a trip to Florida, will probably be named as the candidate for city clerk: The convention will open at 8 o'clock. Chairman W. F. Delaney will call the convention to order and will then take a seat as a delegate, having re- ceived the proxy of T. W, O'Connor, a delegate from the first ward, who has been called away to Baltimore on a business trip. After the convention the delegates will dine at J. J. Walsh's restaurant as the guests of Mayor Halloran. The Herald will bulletin the returns | from the republican caucus and the democratic convention in its window.

Washington, April 7.—Fifteen days | of public hearings beginning | April 9, on the Sims bill to repeal the Panama tolls exemption, were decid- ed upon today by the senate canals committee. Senator Brandegee, republican, cast the only vote against the hear- ings, saying he did so because he be- lieved the committee’s action would have no ‘weight. He urged that the repeal bill be returned to the senate without any report, and that the fight be transferred to the floor. : Adjourn Till Thursday. i The committee adjourned until | Thursday with the understanding | that the authors of various bills and 1esolutions on the subject will then be heard, pending the arrival of wit- nesses from New Orleans and the Pacific coast. Then senate adopted Senator Brandegee’s resolution calling upon the state department for “all infor- mation, correspondence and records” bearing on the negotiations for the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, and the inter- pretation of that treaty. First Vote Taken. By a vote of 35 to 27, the first taken in the senate on the Panama tolls exemption controversy Senator | Poindexter’s resolution asking Presi- dent Wilson for an explanation of the language of his repeal message was referred to the foreign relations committee. Urging passage of the Poindexter resolution, Senator Lip- pitt, republican, declared he was'un- decided how he would vote on th repeal bill. He said: 5 “I have not found any man any- where who understands what in the world the language means,” he said. COMMONS 356 T0 276 FOR HOME RULE BILL Passed to Second Reading Third Timg by Majority of 80 Votes. | London, April 7.—The second read- ing of the Home Rule for Ireland bill was carried in the House of Commons last pight by a majority of elghty, the vcte being passed 356 to 276. The bill has therefore passed its most crucial stage in three successive sessions, as required by the Parliament act. An interval of some weeks will now elapse but the bill will reach tha House of Lords early in May, and ought to be on the statute books by June. The tone of the closing debate was distinctly ‘conciliatory. John Red- mond, the Nationalist leader, declared he would g0 a long distance in the di. recton of giving increased representa- tion to the Unionists in the Irish Par- liament, - especially in. the south and west, for the sake of a settlement, in regard to which, he said, the eleventh hour had not vet passed. In Sir Edward Carson’s speech, Sir John Simon, the attorney general, said he recognized a great and signifi- cant advance. The offer of the gov- ernment respecting Ulster, Sir John said, was still open. Bonar Law, the opposition leader, offered to consent to the bill as amended by the Ulster proposals if it were approved at a general election. Further, he expressed his willingness to renew the ‘““‘conversations” with the government if it desired. But though the atmosphere of the debate was calm, it cannot be said that any great progress was made toward a settlement. The suggested way- to peace by Federalism received scanty support, and all the other va- rious plans for conciliation were again canvassed, Yet no bargain was struck. 1 CONDITION IMPROVED.
