REVOLT ROCKS i MEXICO; FOES PERIL CALLES President Holds Advantage h in First Skirmishes; Gar- ||| rison in Mutiny. f CANDIDATES IN FRAY ; Election Rivals Head Forces in Rebellion; Extensive Plot Bared. 1 1 * By LUDWELL DENNY United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.—The Mexican revolution has spread to 5 four States, but the Calles government, up to noon today, had control of the situation, according to re- : liable reports obtained here by the United Press. The States affected are Vera Cruz, Puebla, Coahuila, and the Federal district. General Amulfo Gomez, former military commander of Vera Cruz, and General Francisco Serrano, former commandant of the Federal district—both candidates for the presidency—are reported actively leading the revr/t. Defeat of the rebels in the capital and failure of the revolt to spread over wider areas of the country within the first forty-eight hours are believed to place the government in a strong position to put down the revolution. 1 Infantry Revolts At Torreson, State of Coahuila, the 16th Infantry Brigade (about 500 men) revolted and encamped outside the city. Gen. G. Escobar, Federal commander, rallied the loyal forces of the garrison, and in a battle lasting several hours defeated the rebels. In the nearby city of Saltillo, Coahuila, Federal authorities discovered the revolutionary plot before it gathered headway, and were able to Suppress it without battle. Following their flight from Mexico City, about 300 rebel troops of AJmada have reached TexTeotibuacan, Puebla, about from the capital. They are preparing for battle. These are the remnants of the three military organizations of the Md $/6 City garrison which revolted yesterday. At that time the 48th Cavalry Regiment, the 50th and 27th Infantry Regiments and the 2nd Artillery Brigade, comprising about 1,500 men, rebelled. Return to Allegiance After pursuit by loyal troops, all but/about 300 returned to the capital ana declared allegiance to the Calles regime. General Serrano has fled from the capital to Cuautla, Puebla, where the Texcoco-Teotihuacan remnant and his followers from the country districts of Puebla are expected to join him. Several sympathetic deputies from Mexico City fled with Serrano. General Gomez has fled from the city of Vera Cruz to Perote, State of Vera Cruz, where he is gathering a rebel army. He is reported to have with him several hundred men, mostly civilians, rather than deserting forces from federal garrisons. The government has control in the city of Vera Cruz, but the railway line from that seaport to the capital has been out. Disturbances in the northern mountains of the State of Chihuahua are attributed to Tarahumares Indian discontent, not connected with the Gomez-Serrano uprising. Rumors that a military rising has started at Tampico are not confirmed. The Yaqui Indians of Sonora and Sinalva, who recently were warring against the Calles government, were not joining the revolt, according to latest reports.

BY JOHN WHARTON r— — j CANDIDATE justly entitled to membership in l——J the Meanest Man Club is somewhere in Indianapolis qr vicinity today, hiding from police, but unable to hide from the dead eyes of a youth whom he slew. The Meanest Man'candidate is the aUtoist who ran down Merrill Whistler, 19, of Wabash, an Indiana University freshman, then sped away, leaving the lad to die alone in the street.

MORE RELIEF FUNDSNEEDED Original Goal of $500,000 Not Enough in St. Louis. Bu United Press ST. LOUIS, Oct. 4.—The $500,000 storm relief fund at first set as the goal here will be far short of the amount needed, Red Cross officials declared today, in issuing an appeal for more moi^gy. “We are finding the needs much greater than we anticipated,” Bert Lang, chaiiman of the tornado relief committee declared. “The state of emergency will continue until about Saturday night, by which time we hope rehabilitation work may be started comprehensively throughout the storm area.” The finance committee of the Red Cross of which John Lonsdale is chairman, issued the following statement: “Rain and storm have brought increased suffering in the devastated districts. Money to meet the emergency is absolutely necessary. While generous response has been made we are far short of the needs of the Red Cross.” The relief fund which late yesterday passed $400,000 was expected to reach the original goal today.

FUGITIVE SLAYER IS BELIEVED HIDING HERE Bus Driver Thinks His Passenger Was Dreyfus Rhoades. Belief that Dreyfus Rhoades convicted killer who escaped from the Vincennes (Ind.) jail, was in Indianapolis, Monday, was expressed to police by Henry Thomas, 834 Stillwell St., bus driver for the Indianapolis Street Railway Company. Thomas said the man he believed was Rhoades got, in his bus at Illinois and New York Sts. As they drove west the man sighted an interurban going out Indiana Ave. and asked him if the bils could overtake the car. When told the bus went a different route, the man rode to Speedway City, where he loafed about the waiting room until the bus left on its in-bound trip. Description given by Thomas tallied with that of Rhoades in many ways, police said. RUSH RULING ON BIRGER Early Decision by Illinois Supreme Court on Appeal Predicted.

not know how mean Is the stuff of which her husband is made. Perhaps he is the father of a rollicking boy who went to the . door with him this morning and kissed him good-by, and put a fat little arm about his neck and whispered in his ear: “Daddy, won’t you bring me something when you come home tonight?” And, maybe, this man went forth among his fellow men who would shun him, if they only knew the depth of his guilt—would shun him as men shun a serpent that is cursed to crawl about the world on its belly, poisoning whatever atmosphere it breathes. -Jt * * IE will get through the day sohie way. And then night will come. And perhaps in the darkness of his own room, when he tries in vain to woo sleep, those dead eyes will come to him and will look at him accusingly.

Cross Borne for Years Flung Down by Suicide Bu United Press I"--, -Ew YORK, Oct. 4.—Helen Ignace Iwinski of Brooklyn carI N ried cross for many a year. She did not flinch when her I I ” I first born proved mentally deficient. She went stolidly ahead when his brother came—and was deaf and dumb. And when, ten years ago, a third child, a daughter, came into the Iwinski household and soon developed into an almost incurable invalid, she set herself to the task of protecting her unfortunate offspring from the world. But as yeys went on the burden became heavier and heavier. Finally came the last bit of weight which upset her mental balance. It came when Joseph, the 16-year-old boy, her first, whom she loved despite his dull wit, came home from school crying over the jibes aimed at him by more fortunate companions. His wit was not so dull but that he could understand. She could carry her burden no longer. So yesterday she mixed a potent poison and gave Joseph a beaker of it. He writhed a moment and died. Then she took the same potion herself. Hours later she, too, died—leaving a husband, a deaf and dumb son and an invalid daughter behind her.

J„ Oct. 4.--A firm refusal to re-enact the murder of her husband in Great Swamp lane met authorities who calied at the home of Mrs. Margaret Lilliendahl today, determined to check her stories of the crime. Undeterred by Mrs. Lilliendahl’s refusal, the troopers remained in her house, trying to prevail upon the widow to change her mind. “Six times is enough to tell the story. I don’t see why it is necessary to have me go through this ordeal,” said the middle-aged widow. She is at liberty under $25,000 bail as a material witness in the murder of Dr. William Lilliendahl, aged narcotic specialist, slain while driving with her Sept. 15.

BAN CITY FREE GASOLjNE LIST Employes Must Buy Fuel for Private Cars. No more city-bought gasoline for private autos of city employes used on “city business”—at least for a few days. It has long been the custom that a list of city employes approved by the board of works could get free gasoline for their own private autos from the municipal garage. Friday afternoon a list of names was submitted to the board for approval. Some board employe presumably thought that with Robert F. McNay as new superintendent of municipal garage anew list of those eligible for free gas should be provided. But the list hit a snag. John W. Friday, Democratic board member, approved it. His name was on the list. Virgil Vandagrifft, then board president, and Frank Cones refused to approve. Their names were not on the list. They sent a “no more gas” order to McNay. Today McNay no longer is municipal garage superintendent and Vandagrifft no longer is board president. If the new board member. Charles L. Riddle, joins Friday in approving the list, the new garage superintendent will once more give free gas for ‘city business.” Some of those slated for free gas were council members, four city inspectors, including Le Roy Wilson, nephew of Mayor Duvall, and Donn Roberts, assistant city attorney.

PIRATES GIVEN EVEN CHANCE BY WISE ONES Cold Analysis of Facts Is Eye Opener to Hysterical Yankee Backers. BUSH’S SLABBERS BEST Corsairs Also Have Edge in Backstops, at Left Side of Infield. BY FRANK GETTY United Pres* Sports Editor PITTSBURGH, Oct. 4.—A world series surpassing all previous postseason championships in enticing the interest of the Nation’s baseball fans, if demand for tickets and intensity of discussion can be credited, is about to open in Pittsburgh. Against the somber background of Forbes field, with its towering steel stands, its drab fences and new pine bleachers, the annual classic of the national pastime will be unfolded Wednesday afternoon. While the New York Yankees, champions once more of the American League, continue to rule favorites at 10 to 8, a feeling is growing, spreading, gaining strength among the baseball hosts that the Pittsburgh Pirates have close to an even chance to win. Pirates’ Class Recognized This new feeling, found jn the eve of the first game of the 1927 series. apparently is.not born of sympathy with the underdog. Nor is it entirely the product of a quite natural desire to take the short end of a sporting bet. The Pittsburgh Pirates, save for a couple of weak spots, can be esti mated honestly as a great ball club. Prestige which the New York Yankees acquired in their runaway victory in the American League perhaps has uimmed the perception of a majority to the class of the Pirates. Ih point of actual effectiveness, of averages based upon earned runs rather than games won and lost, wise old heads of baseball point out, the Pirate pitching staff excels that of the American League champions. In the heat of world series strife, they continue, the left side of any infield is more important than the right—and certainly “Pie” Traynor and Glenn Wright comprise a far sounder defense than Joe Dugan and Mark Koenig. Corsair Catchers Better In the matter of catchers—and probably cold statistics never will show how many crucial games are won and lost by the man behind the bat—Pittsburgh better than New York. In the outfield, provided Babe Ruth does not carry his home run fever into the series, there really is little advantage on either side, for Paul and Lloyd Waner and phlegmatic Clyde Barnhart comprise a trio of ball players quite capable of holding their own with any opposition, especially in the stress ot battle for post-season championship. It is the more hysterical, easily influenced type of fan who has devoted his time to shouting that the New York Yankeees have such a strong attack that they cannot be put out. The old-timers now come into Pittsburgh with somewhat maturer opinions. This does not refer to National League supporters alone. There are men who have followed American League champions since the founding of the league who have come to the series declaring that it is the height of foolishness to count the New York Yankees “home”without a struggle. An unprecedented demand for series tickeets for the Pittsburgh games is ample evidence of local belief that these forthcoming championship games will be well worth watching.

VANDAGRIFFT RESIGNS AS BOARD CHIEF General City Hall Shakeup Follows Action Taken by Indicted Official. CONES AIEW PRESIDENT Osbon Is Chosen Building Commissioner; McNay Is Demoted. Resignation of Virgil Vandagrifft as president of the board of works today was the signal for another city hall shake-up. When Mayor Duvall, after consulting half a dozen friends and city councilmen, announced his revised list, nine officials were Involved, and observers believed he had warded off an Impeachment resolution which some councilmen had threatened to introduce tonight. The changes: . FRANK CONES, promoted from board member to board of works president. Salary, $3,000. CHARLES L. RIDDLE, promoted from assistant street commissioner to board of works member. Salary. $2,500. ROBERT F. M’NAY. former grand titan of the Indiana Ku-Klux Klan, demoted from municipal garage superintendent at $3,000 a year to city sign inspector at $2,500. FRANK HAUGHAM, father-in-law of Councilman Boynton J. Moore, promoted from sign Inspector at $2,500 to assistant city building commissioner at $3,500. W. A. OSBON, promoted from assistant city building commissioner to building commissioner, succeeding Bert Westover, who resigned to take a better job. Salary, $4 000 WILLIAM HAMILTON, former municipal garage superintendent, friend of several city councilmen, as assistant street commissioner to succeed Riddle. Salary, $2,000. RAY SEIBERT, promoted from municipal garage foreman to superintendent. Seibert is Councilman Moore’s brother-in-law. Salarv $3,000.
EMMANUEL WETTER, brother of Municipal Judge Paul Wetter, bookkeeper, for board of works, ucceeding Ralph Boyer. Salary, $4,200. RAY DAGLISH, municipal garage foreman, succeeding Seibert Salary, $2,400. Hold Up Impeachment Vandagrifft’s resignation stated that he was leaving because he believed no man under indictment should serve in public office, nt matter how innocent he might believe himself. Vandagrifft is under indictment in Criminal Court. Belief that the council would not start impeachment proceedings was based upon the /act that council recessed the regular meeting Monday night until tonight, leaving the implied threat over the mayor's head. Prdlnotion of two relatives of Councilman Moore, who had said he would Introduce the impeachment move, was regarded as significant. McNay was demoted in response to council objections to his appointment last Friday, it was indicated. ‘‘The council majority has moved into the king row of the municipal checker game,” commented one city official. Vandagrifft was appointed president of the works board April 25. after the entire old board had resigned. Concrete Banned From Bids The old board, Roy C. Shaneberger, president; Oren S. Hack and Lemuel Trotter, had served since the administration begun. It resigned because effort was made to force it to eliminate concrete from accepted street paving materials. The new board, under Vandagri fit’s presidency, changed specifications to make it almost impossible for a contractor to bid upon concrete successfully, and at the same time made it almost necessary to bid upon asphalt. Vandagrifft and Mayor Duvall hr ve been friends and business associates for many years. Before he went on the board he was widely known as a promoter of various enterprises. He is under indictment in Criminal Court on a charge of violating the Indiana blue sky law in the sale of securities in an unregistered “oil well rejuvenator” concern.
