THE MEXICO SITUATION LAXATIVE FOR OLD
IN A CONDENSED FORM PEOPLE- H
H
D EVELOPMENTS in the past twenty-four Hours in revolt-seared
Mexico indicate that the ill-fated republic of Madero faces the most
menacing situation in many years' history of that country.
Bloody battle is being fought in the streets of Mexico City, and
anarchy reigns.
Americans are in peril.
American refugees arrive in Laredo, Texas, from Mexico City from
whence they fled to escape danger of the battle in the streets of the
Mexican capital.
Southern P-cific railroad notified to haw .168 cars ready to trans
port American troops rom San Antonio, Texas.
Taft orders 5,000 United States ‘roops to be in readiness to leave at
once to protect Americans.
Six American battleships, under command of two rear admirals, are
en route to Mexican waters.
American Minister Henry Wilson and the German ambassador have
demanded of Madero that the battle cease.
American clubs and hotels are directly in path of the fire from Mex
ican federal and rebel artillery.
The rebels have liberated 5,000 of the most desperate Mexican prison
ers from the old Belem jail.
The British legation is under fire.
. Two hundred Americans have taken refuge in El Paso from an uprising
in Chihuahua.
Rebels attempted to dynamite a train at Mochtezuma, but were cap
tured by federal guards.
The battle in the streets of Mexico City was resumed Wednesday morn
ing at 6:35 o’clock, after a night of looting.
Mexico City lias the appearance of a great armed camp, which is fast
becoming a battlefield with dead and dying.
Food supplies are almost at a prohibitive price.
The fronts of all stores are all boarded up and the buildings are closed.
The rebel forces are , s well armed as the troops of Madero, and ignore
thf. demands that their leader Diaz surrender.

ness for intervention.
The Seventeenth infantry at McPherson wiil 'be among those who

What glasses are to weak
eyes, Cascarets are to weak
bowels-Try a 10-cent box
TAFT ORDERS 5,000
TO
Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they suf
fer from constipation. The condition
Is perfectly natural. It is just as nat
ural as it is for old people to walk
slowly. For age is never so active as
youth. The muscles are less elastic.
And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets. One
might as well refuse to aid weak eyes
with glasses as to neglect this gentle
aid to weak bowels. The bowels must
be kept active. This is important at all
ages, but never so much as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip the bowels
Into activity. But a lash can't be used
every day What the bowels of the old
need is a gentle and natural tonic. One
that can be constantly used without
harm. The only such tonic is Cascarets
and they cost only 10 cents per box at
any drug store. They work while you
sleep.—(Advertisement.)

CHICAGO, Feb. 11.—Prosecution of
the Chicago board of trade for violation
of the Sherman anti-trust law in fix-
in the price of foodstuffs has been or
dered by Attorney General Wickersham,
according to the Tribune today.
It is said f the' proceedings will be
instituted in a bill in equity to be filed
in the federal district court here today
or tomorrow.
The big grain exchange is to be ar
raigned for fixing what is known as the
“call’’ price of grain each day at the
close of trading. Under a rule of the
board no broker is permitted to deal in
grain at any but the “call” price from
the closing of the exchange on one day
till the opening of trading ■ the next
day.
The result of this rule is-the fixing
of the price of grain during a period
of about twenty-one hours each day.
Only during about three hours of trad
ing is the price subject to fluctuations.
The penalty for violation of this rule
by any broker is suspension or expul
sion. The consequence is, violations are
few.

CHARLESTON. W. Va., Feb. 12.—
With marked money in their pockets, al
leged to be the price of their votes in
tlie United • States # senatorial contest,
i which is causing a deadlock in the leg-
jislafcure, four members of the house
| of delegates and one member of the
i senate of West Virginia were arrested'
jin & otel here late yesterday afternoon
I by Sheriff Bonner Hill in the presence 1
I of the public prosecutor, Thomas C.
Townsend. They were taken before
Justice of the .Peace C. W. Dering,
where they each waived a hearing and;
were held in $5,000 bond. The accused '
men are Representatives U. S. G. ■
Rhodes, Dr. II. F.. Asbury, David E.
Hill, Rath Duff and Senator B. A.
Smith.
Ever since the legislature assembled j
there have been rumors that money was
being used to influence members of
both houses in the interest of some one
of the senatorial candidates, but the
stories were not supported by. tangible
evidence and the entire matter was
passed as an ordinary feature of a
hard fought political battle.
$50,000 FOR VOTES.
Recently, however, Rhodes is alleged
to have said, according to the prosecu
tor. that for something over $50,000 he
could change six votes in the two
houses. Acting on this report, it is
stated. Prosecutor Townsend employed
detectives.
They had been watching the balloting
for several weeks and were in close
touch with the situation. After the
arrests, it was said, arrangements had
been made for the change in voting
this week. As reported, It was to start
with a change of a vote or two the first
day, followed by other changes until
the necessary number had been won
over.
Part of the program was carried out,
and yesterday was arranged as ‘pay
day.’ The men were called to a ho
tel and, it is charged, they were there
paid with marked bills. In an ad
joining room Prosecutor Townsend and
Sheriff Hill awaited the signal that was
to lay bare the alleged bribery. They
had only a few minutes to wait, for,
the transaction over, the door was
opened and the men invited to enter.
