HUERTA WILL LEAVE TOR EUROPE ABOARD EMPERORHRUISER Deposed Dictator to Sail Tonight From Puerto Mexico ; for Exile in Europe Until Recalled.
PUERTO MEXICO. July 18. From bis private car, surrounded by 500 picked soldiers who accompanied him from Mexico City. General Victoriano Huerta sent out word early today that he would seek refuge under the German flag and would sail for Europe before night on the cruiser Dresden. He said he would remain in Europe until recalled by his country. The fleeing dictator's announcement was given out by his secretary. Col. Jose Melgano, after Huerta had held a long conference with General Banquet, former minister of war, who came to Puerto Mexico on the same train with his chief and Captain Koehler of the Dresden. Resigns for Peace. The statement was issued at 3 a. m., six hours after Huerta arrived here. It was as follows: "When I took the presidency of Mexico I said: 'I will bring peace to Mexico, cost what it may.' Now I willingly give up the presidency to bring about peace. I do it cneerruuy "I have not treated at any time with Carranza and I know nothing of any arranaements that Provisional President Carbajal may make with the rebels. "I am going on board the Dresden today. I will go to Europe to remain until my country needs me." General Banquet and all the mem bers of the general staff of the Mexi can federal army will accompany General Huerta, Colonel Melgano stated. Writes to Carbajal. With the statement from Huerta announcing his intention of going to Europe, Colonel Melgano also gave out a copy of a dispatch sent by the fugitive dictator to Provisional President Carbajal in which he pledged his services if they might be needed. It read: "I wish that you and your government remain united, which means peace to the republic. If for this purpose you ever require my small assistance, I'm ever at your service." Huerta also gave out copies of dispatches he had sent to foreign soverlgns, governors of the Mexican states and the Mexican delegates to the Niagara Falls conferences beBpeaking their friendship for the new government. Takes Along Cognac. Huerta's announcement that he would take refuge under the German flag on the Dresden caused surprise here as it had been supposed that he would seek- British refuge on the cruiser Bristol, which his wife and her party boarded upon arrival here. So strong was the belief that Huerta would sail on the Bristol that his statement was accepted by many as a ruse to throw off the track any plotters who might be planning to assassinate him. A large supply of cognac was brought by Huerta from Mexico City and during most of the time that the train was coming here he was imbibing steadily. The light in his car was not extinguished until early this morning and through the window, kept open on account of the intense heat, he could be seen sitting in his shirt sleeves with a bottle at his elbow. MORE EFFICIENCY (Continued from Page One.) try, but there are not many of them who realize that the fire fighters stand In constant dread of a blaze in any of the larger buildings. A Real Fire Menace. The board of public works, however, keenly realizes that if there should be a big fire, for instance either in the Westcott hotel, the Arlington hotel or the Westcott Motor Car factory, the Are department has no ladders which would reach the third stories of these buildings, and that the old ladder truck is not equipped with scaling ladders. The necessity of providing a modern ladder truck for the fire department is but one of the severaj problems pushed upon the Robbins administration by the Zimmerman administration. However, all the municipal needs the present administration fell heir to can not be cared for in bulk because the city's income is a limited one and can be stretched but a short distance beyond the actual operating expenses. If some of the most important improvements are to be provided the strict economy program, of the board of public works must be carried out, notwithstanding the sneers and ridicule of the unthinking critics of the administration. What Economy Can Do. What this economy program can accomplish has already been demon Btrated, although the Robbins administration has been in office only six months. By careful management an automobile has been purchased for the police department. This department had been petitioning for this in vain for four years. By cutting down the operating expenses of the street department, the public clamor, heard for years, for proper care of the paved streets has been answered by the purchase of a modern street flueher. And by the same process the board has been able to purchase a badly needed machine, a scarifier, which will greatly facilitate the work of the street department in remaking and resurfacing pon-permanently improved streets. Incidentally, during the last six knonths the new administration has found time to provide a modern lighting system for the entire city, to be int tailed before winter; has satlsfactorly settled through the state public Utilities commission three public service questions, gas, electricity and ktrater, securing reduced rates which lave saved citizens thousands of dolars, and has entered into an agreement with the street car company rhich has insured two much-needed lne extensions, opening up two rapidy building sections of the city. In passing It might also be mentionid that next year the city will have i large and modern crematory, and by hat time the program now being napped out for permanently improved itreets and an adequate storm sewer rill be vaQ oader way.

ABSENCE OF SAYLES DELAYS JFROIIK CASE Eaton Court Continues Attachment Action by. East and Clark.
Because of the absence of Francis E. Sayles, of the Sayles Stock company, which disbanded about ten days ago, after Sayles and O. G. Murray could not agree on the per cent of receipts at the Murray theatre, the attachment proceedings Instituted against two trunks belonging to Mr. and Mrs. Sayles were - not heard - In an Eaton court. Ernest G. Kast and W. P. Clark evidently did not come to the expected settlement with Mr. Sayles, for the $65 they say Sayles owes each of them for their services while the company was "on rocky territory." Sayles and his wife, Olga Worth, have gone to Roches ter, Ind., where Sayles will etay with friends until he secures employment or organizes another stock company to fill an engagement at Hamilton on Labor day. According to an Eaton correspond ent, the case was set down for hearing August 27. His story follows: When called Friday in the court of Justice Foster, continuance until Au gust 27 was made in the attachment suit filed by Ernest G. Kast and W. F. Clark against the Francis E. Sayles Stock company. The plaintiffs claim Sayles is indebted to them in the sum of $65 each for services in his com pany. The company was filling an en gagement in Richmond when difficul ties arose, and in an endeavor to se cure their pay Kast and Clark entered attachment proceedings against the trunks which Sayles shipped to Eaton to avoid similar proceedings by O. G. Murray at Richmond. The goods have been appraised at $125. Sayles is at Rochester, Ind., and service will be made upon him by publication. Who said "picnic"? Last year's outing was not the success it should have been, the attendance being slim, though there was much pleasure experienced by those who did attend. Is there any real reason why the members of Post C cannot have a real outing before summer Wanes? It could be made a real social event for the members and their families. What's the matter with Broth O. G. Mitchell, chairman of the refreshment committee, looking into this and getting up the organization. Go to it. When Brother Hirschburg returned from the tropics he smuggled through a few boxes of choice Havanas. Marcus Hasty has smoked so many of them that he really talks pretty fair Spanish and in asking a friend for a match he never uses English. They certainly are some cigars, though up to date we have not had the pleasure ourselves. John Hegger still at Clear Lake, Ind., is also smoking a box of tae Hirschburg brand, and according to the letters recently received the cigars have mude as much of a hit as John's striped bathing suit. Secretary Hasty has received from National Secretary Logan a letter in which the proper interpretation of the eligibility clause is set forth. It appears that ther has been more or less confusion concerning the action of the National convention at Houston relative to the admission of new members. Here is what Secretary Logan writes: "The eligibility clause was changed at the Houston convention by adding 'traveling adjusters for mencantile companies, traveling auditors for wholesale and manufacturing houses, and by the elimination of viceresidents.' " These are all the changes made in the eligibility clause. Charles Tooker is now behind the desk at the Arlington hotel, having recently become night clerk at this popular stopping place.

HHOLD
UNTIL MEXICO . BY LAWRENCE TOD. r WASHINGTON, July 18. No pledge of any kind will be given either by the Constitutionalists to the .United States or the Mexican Federals who remain under arms, until the forces of the revolution shall be In full control of Mexico City. No promise of the sparing of life or property will be made. No terms of any kind will be offered for a reward for surrender. This was the ultimatum announced to the world today by the spokesman of the Carranza government here. It was given in answer to the report that the state department had attempted to secure from Carranza guarantees of amnesty and of concessions to the more powerful groups which have opposed the revolution. Rafael Zubaran Capmany, head of the junta, and Luis Cabrera, one of the civil leaders of the revolution pointed out that the best means of pacifying Mexico would be the occupation of the capital before the enemy should be granted any encouragement. Should they be left secure in life and lands while still able to fight, they would quickly begin to plot the overthrow of the new regime. Safeguard Property. This declaration was made with the added comment that since the new government sought the recognition of foreign nations it could be counted on to commit no excesses of punishment, nor confiscate property where confiscation was not required by the public welfare. For the sake of public safety, a gen-e-al eviction of the Friars now in Mexico In violation of the law of 1872 is to be carried out. At the same time landed estates of the church declared
