VOL. LVI.—NO. 57 7, 1914 Tho Bulletin’s Circulation in Norwich is Double That of Any Other Paper, and BRYAN ASKED TO SAVE A MEXIGAN| Conder Invited by Prominent Resident to Use His Good Offices in Behalf of Luis Terrazas HIS FATHER UNABLE TO PAY RANSOM DEMANDED Villa Threatens to Execute Him Unless 500,000 Pesos Are Forthcoming by Sunday—Regarded as an Empty Threat in Some Quarters—Cabinet Discusses Carranza’s Atti- tude—Only Indirect Overtures From Felix Diaz. Bl Paso, Texas, March 6—The case of Luls Terrazas, whose iife has in effect been declared forfeited unless 500.000 pesos are forthcoming by Sun- day, was without change tonight. The ransom has not been paid, as General Luls Terrasas, father of the prisoner, claims that out of his vast fortune no such sum is available. An Appeal to Bryan. Felix Martinez, prominent political- I¥ in this section, is reported to have telegraphed Secretary Bryan inviting him te use his good offices In behalf of the younger Terrazas. Many friends of the latter declars that Vil- ia’s threat of taking his captive soutn with him, which is regarded by the father as a death sentence, is all hut empty, as with Luis alive he may be able to extort money from the family if any is left, while Luis dead would no longer be a weapon in his hands. Advantage in Holding Terrazas. Moreover, by keeping Luis prisoner, Villa may hope to control alleged po- litical activities of the aged father, who is accused by the rebels of financ- ing recent filibustering movements, particularly those of Jose Orozco and the Quevedo brothers. George C. Carothers returned today from Nogales, where he had a satis- factory interview with General Car- ranza, he said. He expects to leave for Chihuahua within a few days. CARRANZA DISCUSSED. Attitude of Rebel Chief Occupies At- tention of Cabinet. ‘Washingtdh, March 6—Although the American government intends to Sus- pend any further developments of its policy toward Mexico until the com- mission of Mexican constitutionalists now investigating the recent execu- tion of William 8. Benton, a British subject, has made a report, today’s cabinet meeting here developed a dis- cussion of the importance of the fu- ture attitude of General Carranza to- ward the United States. Should the Benton case remain un- acttled in the event the cause of the constitutionalists is triumphant, strong intimations are heard in officfal circles that Great Britain would refuse to recognize Carranza, if he were elected. It is aiso taken for granted by of- @cials that Great Britain might in- “.ence other Furopean nations to withhold recognition until reparation / is made for injury done to foreigners. The expected discussion of the Mex- ican situation in the open senate be- gan today with a speech by Senator Works, of California, republican, who arraigned the government's Mexican policy. His words brought no reply from administration senators. A Monday, Senator Fall of New Mexi co, republican, proposes to make public a mass of information which he has collected with regard to the Mexican situation, particularly the treatment of American citizens. Senator = Shively plans to reply defending the aftitude of the administration. Other senators are planning to speak if there is to be a free-for-all discussion. It was stated tonight that an effort might be made to go into executive session when the Mexican issue comes up, but if such an effort is made a roll call may be demanded, and some senators asserted that would mean an open_session. General Felix Diaz, who still is in- Washington has made indirect over- tures to get a hearing before the sen- ate foreign relations committee, but Senator Shively, acting chairman of the committee, said tonight no meet- ing of the committee for that purpose had been called as yet. COLQUITT’S REQUISITIONS. Texas Governor Recognizes Both Rebel and Federal Authority. Dallas, Texas, March 6.—Governor O. B. Colquftt of Texas will make reqi- sition on both federal and rebel author- ities in the states of Nuevo Leon and Coahuila, Mexico, for the return of the four men held responsible for the kid- napping of the missing American ranchman, Clemente Vergara. The governor made this announcement to- night, after he had received a telegram from Secretary of State Bryan, saying the question of requisition was one of justice and not of diplomacy, and con- cerned only local authorities, General Joaquin Maas, federal com- mander of the northern zone, noti- fied the governor yvesterday that he had ordered the arrests of the men wanted. Four Mexicans, including Captain Apolonio Rodriguez, have been charged with horse theft in Texas, on which the request for requisition is based. The alleged theft led to kidnapping of the owner of the stock, Vergara, and later to his alleged execution by the fed- erals, OPERATING EXPENSES REDUCED $154,740.

Boston, March 6.—The work that agricultural boards and_commissions have done for New England was described today by Elbert 5. Brigham, commissioner of agriculture of St. Al- bans, Vt, before the New England Federation for Rural Progress. Maine, he said, haes placed the en- forcement of the pure food law under its board; New Hampshire has devel- oped its summer boarder business; Massachusetts has developed its dairy bureau: Rhode Island has provided for exterminating the gypsy moth; Ver- mont has established a bureau of farm labor to supply help to the farmers when labor s most needed, F, B. Duffy, president of the Cen- nectieut Dairymen’s association, said that all agriculture in New England must be intensive. “It is of no use to tell the farmer to make two blades of grass grow wherg one did before,” he said, “if he knows that the transpor- tation interests are going to eat the extra blade of grass as soen as it grows,” He believed, however, that there was a better feeling between the farmer and the railroad than there has been in the past. “The best means of pro- tecting his interests is the agricultural society, through co-operation,” he add- ed, Bpeaking for the Natienal grange, L, H, Healey, secretary of the Con- necticut board of asriculture, said that the grange had been a great educa- tional influence and had made farm life happier and farm worl easier. In Massachusetts, he said, it had had a powerful influence in securing laws for better eonditions in milk produc- tion, in protecting birds and other ways. THAW’'S COUNSEL IS DISBARRED BY COURT.

INCOME TAX WILL PRODUCE $50,000,000 indications That Administration Will Realize Expectations, Washington, March 6.—The income tax law bids fair to live up to the expectations of the administration by producing about $50,000,000 annually in revenue paid by approximately 42 900 individuals.

From these individuals, it was under- stood, the government probably would collect more than $40,000,000, It has been the opinion among offi- cials that thousands of individuals would take advantage of the thirty days' extension of tlme granted in case of absence and sickness, and they expect the final figures to show at least 25,090 more reporting than were glven in the preliminary lists from collectors. Including the corporation tax as amended in the present law, it was es- timated that the annual revenue from this source would amount to about $85,000,000.
