It was asserted that Villa Would have his entire armed strength before Zacatecas and begin an attack | with himsel* in supreme command ‘mot later than Sunday. Villa will supersede Gen. Panofit Natera. Whether Villa intends to seize command rogardiess of Gen, Carranza's wishes or acts with Car- Fanza’s consent is not publicly known, but the inference is that Carranza Bas agreed to this plan. Gen. Natera fs expected to report to Villa bim- ‘self during the campaign. * During the past few days Villa has j@ank the steamship Empress of ire- jthe loss of more than a thousand Teceived large quantities of arma and | ammunition, presumably from a sup- ply landed at Tampico from the steamer Antilla. If that be true, it fm evidence that Carranza and Villa cannot now be very far apart. The ammunition must have come through Carransa’s territory and the “First | Chief" could readily have stopped it had he deemed it necessary. A telegram from a friend of Villa, went to-day from Torreon says: “For vhe advancement of the Constitutionalist eause and the betterment ef the public service threughout the territery under thie eentre!

QUEBEC, June 18—C Haight | of counsel for the owners of the; collier Storstad, which rammed apd| land in the &t. Lawrence River with lives, to-day startled the commis-| sion which is investigating the dis- aster with a statement that word had reached him that on the night of the disaster the steering gear of | the Empress was disabled. He bad been so informed, he said, by Quartermaster Golway of the Em- press, who was about to depart ‘for england. Lord Mersey, chairman of the Court of Inquiry, immediately took a hand in the proceedings and It was sald that Golway would be called as a witness. Golway was on the bridge at the time of the accident and, ac- cording to Haight's statement, sald the Empress's gear was jammed. Capt. Kendall ef the Empress, called to the stand, repudiated Gol- way's story, as did Chief Engineor jon. Capt. Walsh, marine superintendent of the Canadian Pacific Railwa owners of the Empress, denied that | eny attempts had been made to get | Golway out of the country in order to prevent him giving testimony. Haight, addressing the court, said: “Last night a man called me on the ‘phone and said that he was a quartermaster of the Empresa and wanted to see me. I asked him if he was a witness and he said he was not. I hesitated a little and then I told him to come up to the hotel. “I sent for my partner in the case and we heard the story, He said that on the night previous to the accident he had been at the wheel and that the ship had refused to answer her wheel for five minutes and that she had almost run down another ship. He eaid that the C. P. R. wanted to eend him home to Bngland on the C.F... hip Montreal. He showed a letter to the captain of the ship | signed by’ Walsh, Marine Super- Intendent of company, asking that he be signed on and taken home as he was @ survivor of the Empress crew.” “Who ie this man?” asked Lord Mersey. “His name is Golway und he ie at the Neptune Inn,’ “I advine that you wet him out of ‘The references to the steering gear came out while Haight was cross ‘examining William Sampson, the chief engineer of the Empress. “Did you hear before arriving here on the last trip up the river that there was a sheer on your vessel 4} Haight.

Far-seeing landiords are waking up to the realization of New York City’s woeful lack of play space for cbil- dren. A contract was made yester- day by the Hendrik Hudson Apart- ments, Riverside Drive and One Hun- dred and Tenth street, for a fully equipped playground on its roof, to ta the first of its kind in the metropolis, Similar ones are under way on the roofs of the Astor Hotel and the Van- derbilt Hotel. The designer of these playgrounds is a woman, Mrs. Helen Eaton Speer, a mother of several chil- dren, who originated the successful Mother Goose Vanderbilt Hotel play- room. She is an advocate of the Montessori School for Children. When I spoke to Mr, Austin 3. Babcock, President of the company owning the Hendrik Hudson, he said: “When The Evening Werld campaign was launched for p! grounds and the roofe of apart- PANIC ON STEAMER | FOLLOWING COLLISION: LIFEBOATS READY Continaed from First Page.) nal was sounding all the time.

M. von Schilling of Hampton, Va., who wan on deck when the vessels gtruck, sald: “I was in the smoking saloon when I heard two biasts of a whistle on the starboard side of the Kaiser Wilhelm II. I immediately went on deck. Our vessel was. blowing signal blasts, I heard two more blasts a little closer ‘and then about 200 yards off saw the dim outline of the steamer coming out of the fog. “I could see instantly that the vessel was bound to hit us, and as she wae heading for the spot where I | was standing I ran. “Bhe struck us amidships and I Giatinctly saw the bowa of the Ince- | more crumple up while the men on) her deck were thrown t by the force of the impact.

The life- boats had been cleared and were ready for lowering within ten min- utes, “The firat and second class pase- engera remained quite calm, but there was considerable commotion among the steerage passengers, who bad been provided with lifebelts. “We expected to have to take to the boats, as the impact was so great | that serious damage seemed certain, he Kaiser Wilhelm IT. stopped for half an hour after the collision while the Incemore slipped back into the fog and we did not see her in.

Firat of all, she refused to ride in the prison van, so Deputy Sheriffs Jacobs and Miller walked her the several blocks from the Tombs. At Headquarters she flatiy refused to have her pieture taken, although after some twenty minutes she con- sented, telling Capt. “Jimmy” Dunn, however, that she did so under pro- teat and wanted the British Ambag- sador notified of the indignity. “I warn you that this will be the over here,” she added, pointing to “Vred" Swirz. “You're the biggest man in the room, and I'll show you how I can throw you over my head by Jiu-jitau.” ¢Swirz dodged and at last the pic- turea were taken, but when she had put her fingers on the ink pad for her finger print records Mra.

BORDEN LIGHTLY ACCEPTS WIFE'S DIVORCE PAPERS ‘itwaie Mie D Milk Dealer Will Not Go to California to Defend Suit. Gail Borden, millionaire son of the founder of the Borden condensed milk companies, was served with divorce papers to-day in the office of his at-| torney, Willlam Chadbourne, The summons and complaint were for- warded from Los Angeles by Edwin A. Meserve, attorney for Mrs. Helen M. | Borden, who sues for divorce on the ground of desertion. Borden received Deputy Sheriff Julius Watson, who brought the papers to Mr, Chadbourne, in his most affable manner. “Only divorce papers?” asked the millionaire. “Why, it could be much worse. I am very much pleased at bot being arrested by the sheriff. One could be arrested for far worse things than being the defendant in this euit. You may go now, Mr. Sheriff,” added | Mr. Borden, smilingly. “But as you shut the door gently behind you, you may take the message that I will not be on hand in California to defend this suit, Unfortunately, I sail for Europe to-morrow, Goodby.” The deputy communicated Mr, Bor- den’a message to his chief and the message will be incorporated in letter to-day notifying Mra, Bord attorneys that the papers were per- sonally srved. Mrs. Borden obtained aration from her husband some time ago. The marital differences of the Bor- dens were aired somewhat on the oc- casion of the disappearance of their daughter, Ramona Borden, trom a New Jersey boarding school. The father thought his child had been kidnapped, and for some time a vig- orous search was made. Miss Borden was finally located in Boston, where| she went with a woman friend of Mrs, Borden, Poker Chi jor Money in Mexico.
