BY LEASED WIRE INDIANAPOLIS, May 19. Attacking the administration policy in handling the Mexican situation, Albert J. Beveridge made a speech at an Informal supper last night at the Progressive club, and defined his ideas of what the administration should have done and what it should do from this time forward. Mr. Beveridge did not agree with anything the administration had done. He took the position that it started wrong and that it had been

WOODYftRD DESCRIBES FIGHT

STREETS OF

CRUZ

Some, of the Mexican adventures of i. F. Woodyard Jr., who rescued the viaderos from llucrta's grasp, are rented in a letter sent to his son in 'arkersburg, W. Va., and forwarded 0 U. M. Woodyard, a cousin, in Richnoad. Gilbert Woodyard, Jr., related the story of. I he rescue of the Maderos to 1 Palladium reporter today as follows: "After the arrest of the two Maderos in Tampico, they asked Frank Woodyard to take their wives, to Vera Cruz. Neither of the wives know of the arrest of the two Maderos and were not told of it until later. Frank Woodyard did not want to liccom" entangled in Iho political troubles of Huerta and the Maderos but as he intended going to Vera Cruz that day, consented. "The Maderos were then thrown into the dungeon at Vera Cruz but were released on $LT,,ihi(i bond which Woodyard put up for them. Huerta was angry when he found out that they were released and ordered their rearrest and specified a bond of S loo.ooo. believing they would be unable to pay that amount. One of his men sent a telegram with the order saying. 'Now is the time to cut heads.' probably meaning that the Maderos were to be given a chance to run and then shot down. Taken to Consul. "The Maderos had hidden but Woodyard found them and took them to the American consulate where W. W. Canada and John Lind were in conference. Canada refused to protect the refugees but Woodyard insisted that, he send a wireless to Washington asking orders. He did not dream that Washington would protect the Madercs but had used that as a bluff to gain time. But in thirty minutes, the answer came back to take Maderos to Havana and let them escape from there. "Woodyard stayed around Vera Cruz hut in a few hours, secret service men from Huerta had spotted him and were ready to take him. If he had been inland, it is probable he would have been rotting in a Mexico City dungeon now. However, he escaped on a battleship in the same manner he had helped the Maderos escape." The following is an extract from a thirty-two page letter that J. F. Woodyard of the Madero incident wrote to his son: " Feeling was riming pretty high in Tampico all the time that we stayed there. For this reason we did not leave the boat long at a time, and in fact, it was, impossible to go very far even with a military pass us the rebels were around the outside all the time. The refugees were brought back from the battlesh.'ps on Tuesday. Weaver in a great state of excite

ment all the time but more in a state of indignation all the time against the bungling ways our government has been doing things all the time and the more I see of it all, the more indignant I become, even after all the fighting I have seen in Vera Cruz. Saw G. Woodyard. "I saw Gilbert Woodyard (now staying at 42 South Tenth street in Richmond) in Tampico. I think that you will remember him as the one who was along in the launch "Aurora" the time that you were in Tampico with me. I saw to what little business I had there. I had some lumber stored there in the fort on top of the hill and I was up there to examine it. But I found that a big lot of the stuff was missing. Nothing was said to me all the time 1 was there about my trouble there before when I got the Maderos out, nor was anything said about it when I afterwards got to Vera Cruz. Of course all the Americans wanted to know all about it and it was very amusing to hear all the different reports that had been circulated about it and me." From this point on follows a description of a trip through Vera. Cruz after the refusal to salute the flag and after the consulate, wharves and telegraph station had been taken. The Mexicans were letting the prisoners out of jail and arming them. Their attempt to get back to the consulate follows: Conductor Refuses Fare. "A street car came running by and we jumped on the running board. It was crowded with Mex'cans and the conductor refused to accept my fare. We kept on the car for about four blocks and then the car made a turn in the direction we wanted to go. On seeing the streets full of soldiers in yellow uniforms, we thought we had better turn back and try to get back to the mill or, at least, that was the first impulse and what Bushcell wanted to do. "But on second thought I said our best chance would be to work our way right through the Mexican soldiers. The car stopped and then turned back and we got off. We went ahead and when we got within a block of the soldiers we saw they were Americans and not Mexicans as we had first thought them. "Just about the time I got near the consulate the firing began heavy and continued pretty heavy for about two hours. The bullets were whistling past us uncomfortably. I didn't see as much of the firing as I wanted to as Consul Canada kept pulling me back all the time. There was a bunch of Americans in the consulate but there were not guns enough to go around. I had a big automatic that one of the marines loaned to me and I saw quite a good deal from the balcony."

AND WAR.

A

In his timely and illuminating book, the author covers broadly and fully the most important question before the American people a question which has been growing greater and greater for years which has occupied whole newspaper pages which has engaged the thought of all seriously-minded people, been the subject of presidential messages and congressional debate, and the object of the study of statesmen of the world. The book treats thoroughly every phase of the Mexican question. It shows plainly what caused this world-wide problem what influences are back of it what will be the future of Mexico, and what its relation is to the American people. From this book you can learn, better than in any other way, all of the elements that go to make up the problem. No other book on the subject is so comprehensive so searching so understandable so timely so rrght-up-tc-the-minute. No other writer on the subject has described the Mexican question so fully and frankly so interestingly or with such power to make his readers see vividly everything and influence as he portrays it. OF INTEREST TO EVERYONE IN YOUR COMMUNITY The vitality, pulsating problem of Mexico is one that concern? not alone statesmen and diplomats. It concerns every man, woman and child in the Uqited States. It concerns you. It concerns your neighbor. It concerns every person in your community and in every other community in the United States. It has a bearing on your welfare on your prosperity perhaps on more

serious considerations, if the trumpets of war shall call friends or relatives to arms. In this question involving the honor and dignity of our own nation, as well as an obligation to humanity and government, every citizen feeb a personal interest. For these reasons hundreds of thousands of men and women in every corner of the country will hail with keen interest the opportunity to buy and read this book. No book that has appeared for a long time has such a timely and well-spread appeal. Beyond any question of doubt, its popularity will over-sweep all records for quick and enormous sales. , The Throbbing Life-stories of the Mexican Leaders Nothing more fascinating could be imagined than the stories of the shrewd and able men some of them scrupulous, and some unscrupulous who have planned, striven and perhaps died, in the political and sangunary combat that has kept Mexico torn and. bleeding for generation after generation. Did you know that Juarez, the conqueror and executor of Emperor Maximilian was a full-blooded Indian? that ex-President Diaz was of mixed blood? that Huerta was largely Aztec? The life stories of the Mexican leaders, past and pigment, at told by Frederick Starr, grip the interest of the reader nntQ they seem to live in the pages of this absorbing book. Hero we see the personality of the men who have made history, not as mere pawns, but as human beings whose thoughts, and impulses, and actions are thrown on the screen for us bv this master writer.
