MEXICO CITY, Noy. 15.—President
Madero scouts the idea that his gov-
ernment Is In danger of being over-
thrown by Reyes or any one else-
He admitted to a newspaper man
today that one of the many little in-
surrections now in progress was aimed
directly at the central government and
that it appeared to be in sympathy
with the VasQulta movement. He re-
ferred to that of Angelo Barrios, civil
engineer of Oaxaca, who now Is oper-
ating In the state of Oaxaca with not
more than 600 men, according to the
war department. The other uprisings
the president professes to believe are
entirely local In character.
"To put down all such uprisings as
that of Barrios I shall use the army
relentlessly," he said, 'and General
Egul Lis, w ho has been sent to Oaxaca
to wage war against this rebel, has
been given specific Instructions
to use his own judgment In sup-
pressing the movement. So far as the
other revolts are concerned, most of
them are due to local abuses. I am
going to see to it that the people of
the republic in all quarters have the
opportunity to elect their own oi-
ficials and, in short to get what you
Americans style a square deal."
Discussing the probability of a new
revolution directed by General Ber-
nardo Reyes, the president declared
that should It be started he believed
it would fall "because a revolution to
be successful must have behind It the
people."
"And," he added, "neither General
Reyes nor Vasquez Gomez can count
on the approval of a majority of the
people.

PEKIN, Nov. 16.—1:55 a. m.—
Yuan Shi. Kal has accepted the
premiership a>nd will assume office
probably today (Thursday). Yester-
dufy's official gazette, contained an
expresion of thanks from Yuan to the
throne for his appointment, but the
truth is that he did not undertake the
task without receiving guarantees
tha<t he would have practically a free
hand In conducting affairs while he
retained his official position.
The new prlmler yesterday received
several ministers Including the United
States minister to China, William J
Calhoun, who only recently returned
here. In conversation with a foreign-
er, Yuan Shi Kul said he intended to
form a cabinet immediately and en-
deavor to carry on the government
by gaining the support of as many
provinces as possible, allowing the
remainder to retain their Independ-
ence for the time being. It would
be his endeavor also gradually to win
back their allegiance to the throne
Another Important development In
the capital was the Issuance of an
edict yesterday ordering Hsi Liang,
formerly viceroy of Manchuria, to as
sume command at Jehol, where the
summer residence of the emperor li
situated, In place of Pu Ting, the
Tartar general. This appointmen!
had led to the belief in certain quar-
ters that the court may retire
Jehol, leaving Yuan Shi Kal as chief
executive until the opportunity ar-
rives for the court to reassume a
measure of authority.
The New President.
San Pao Chi, viceroy of Shantung
has been elected president of the re-
public which has been proclaimed ii
that province. His acceptance of this
office is in accordance with teh gov-
ernment's advice. Several otnei
viceroys have gone with the people,
in hope of influencing the provinces
later to renew their allegiance. The
provincial assembly of Chi LI has
"adopted a memorial to the throne In
favor of the establishment of a re-
public with Yuan Shi Kal as presi-
dent.
W'u Ting Fang, secretary of foreign
affairs In the provincial government
of Shanghai and other noted reform-
ers have sent a telegram to the
American charge here asking the
good officers of the United States in
connection with the delivery of a de-
mand for abdication of the regent,
Informing him that further conflicts
between the Imperials and the people
will cause needless bloodshed. If his
majesty abdicates we shall endeavor
to afford safety to the court and pro-
tection to the empore."
C. F. Tate Convicted of Man-
slaughter at
Poteau.
THE BIG SALE
POTEAU, Okla., Nov. 15.—(Spe-
cial)—Monday evening at nine
o'clock the murder case of C. F.
Tate, of Heavener, was completed
and Tate was found guilty of man-
slaughter In the first degree by the
Jury, and the punishment was left to
the court, but so far the Judge lias
not yet passed sentence.
Tate, It will be recalled, after a
disagreement about a former partner-
ship, so seriously wounded Fred Oar-
rett with a club, at Heavener, this
county, last summer, that he died a
short time after, from the wounds.
There was a brilliant array of legal
talent on both sides and the case was
hard fought, Judge Freeling, of
Shawnee, assisting dn the prosecu-
tion.
The Important case of Tuesday was
that of Everett Arnold, a young man
charged with the murder of his
seventeen year old wife lost Septem-
ber, at Pocola.
A Wife Murder Case.
Dave Bray, an uncle of young Ar-
nold, was first arrested for the crime,
but at his preliminary hearing was
held only as a witness and Arnold
was arrested and at his preliminary
hearing, Bray wias released, under
heavy bond, for his appearance.
On the night of September 17th, or
rather the early morning of the 18th,
Mary Arnold, then girl wife of Everett
Arnold, was killed by a shot gun,
blowing the whole side of her head
off, as she slept on a pallet near the
door of their little two room house,
beside her husband and one year old
baby. Arnold claims the shot
awakened him and as soon as he
realized what had happened he
rushed to a rack on the wall where he
kept his shot gun, but found It gone
and that the found It smoking by
the side of his uncle Dave Bray, who
was sitting on the slue of the only
bed In the room, Which he occupied.
Quite a bit of interest Is being
taken In this case and It Is one of
tho most Important ones to come be-
fore this court.
TO CLOSE POOL ROOM.
County Attorney W. E. Disney filed
an Injunction suit yesterday in the
superior court against E. M. fowhead,
R. Webb and Jeff Allen. It Is alleged
In the petition that the defendants are
rununlng a pool room In the town of
Boynton which Is, In fact, a booze
Joint. They ask the court to order the
place locked up.
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.—Tho week-
end may see a verdict In the case ol
William J. Cummins, charged with
the theft of a trust fund of $140,000
while chairman of the executive com-
mittee of ttie Carnegie Trust com-
pany in April 1910. The defense
rested Its case today and after hearing
a few witnesses In rebuttal by the
prosecution. Justieo Davis will charge
the Jury probably on Friday.
Although Andrew Carnegie has
been subpoenaed to tell of large loans
he made to help the distressed Insti-
tution which bore his namo without
having any real connection with his
affairs. It was said tonight he prob-
ably would not be called.
Mr. Cummins spent his fourth day
on the witness stand today and under
cross examination told how he and
his banking associates became owners
of 7,000 shares of Van Norden Trusi
company stock without paying a cent
for It, They simply pledged their
"good name," the defendant said,
and not a cent changed hand, al-
though $2,000,000 was Involved.
Prosecutor Mess went into the "fer-
tilizer plant notes" to cover which
Mr. Cummins borrowed $2,100,000
from Andrew Carnegie. The fou
notes, each for $600,000, made to va-
rious individuals and companies,
were endorsed by the Independent
Fertilizer company.
Mr. Cummins criticised a contract
the late Charles C. Dickinson, out*
time president of the Carnegie Trust
company, made with tho Van Norden
Trust company to purchase 7,000
shares of stock and declared Dlckin'
son had insisted that it was necessary
to save the Van Norden Trust com-
pany and the Nineteenth Ward bank.

NEW YORK. Nov. 15.—Conclu-
sions of an agreement by which the
Guaranty Trust company will co-
operate with the new central bureau
for the validation of cotton bills of
lading was announced tonight by
Charles S. Halght, consul for the
Liverpool cotton bills of lading com-
mittee. Mr. Halght, who has been
'oonferlng for two months past with

an effort to oonvlnce them of the
value of the central bureau in check-
ing the Irregularities In the cotton
bills, which thoy accept said that
counsel for tho Guaranty Trust com-
pany. the officers of the institution
have decided that co-operation with
the central bureau would be to their
advantage.

work Which the central bureau has
been doing for the last two months
and a half," said Mr. Halght, "and
the nefcd of that work which has de-
veloped In the operation of the bu-
reau, I feel safe In expressing the
opinion that other bankers with
whom I have been In conference will
shortly reach the ooncluslon which
has been reached by the officers of
the Guaranty Trust company and
that it Is a matter of only a short
time before all exchanges and buyers
will feel that they cannot afford to
do without the check against forgery
which tho central bureau provides."
Mr. Halght Instanced recent cases
of frauds in bills of lading discovered
in Mississippi. Georgia and Texas as
enforcing his argument for the nec-
essity of maintaining such a method
of safeguarding against crooked work
