ENGLISH EXPLORER REACHED
THE SOUTH POLE BUT
PERISHED ON
RETURN.
SEVERAL DIED
Expedition'Reached Pole About a
Month After Am 'udsen Gain-
ed the Glory—Were
Overwhelmed by
Blizzard.
(By Associated Prese)
London, Feb. 10.—Only meagre
details are yet available of the Scott
polar tragedy, ranking in disas-
trous results with the ill fated
Franklin expedition.
News of the death of Captain
Robert F. Scott and his four brave
companions, who succeeded by a I
final dash in reaching the south
pole, only to find proofs that
/ Amundsen had forestalled them,
came in a brief dispatch from
Lieut. G. Revans of the royal navy,
who was second in command when
the expedition started and who
now signs as "commander" of the
expedition.
The message was signalled from
the Terra Nova, returning from the
antarctic regions while- passing
Oamaru, N. Z.
The staggering effects of ' the
news on the public mind is all the
greater, as it was believed that
modern science and recent experi-
ence had completely divested polar
exploration of its former terrors.
No great surprise would have been
felt had Captain Scott failed to
reach the pole but that he should
perish in his hour of triumph was
the very last thing that could be
anticipated and in view of the ter-
rible dangers which still exist, the
fate of Captain Scott and his com-
panions is likely to discourage fur-
ther attempts to reach the pole, now
that both have been attained and
the circumstances of hurried
dashes prevent valuable scientific
researches from being obtained.
Not all the facts are yet known
but it is believed the records of
scientific material collected, to-
gether with the explorers' bodies
have been recovered.
It is also understood that gallant
attempts were made by other mem-
bers of the expedition to succor the
Scott party but these were defeat-
ed by severe weather conditions
and lack of food. It seems practi-
cally certain that the explorers
starved to death.
Dr. Ehrich Marshall, who was
surgeon to the Shackleton expedi-
tions, suggests that the Scott party,
in the terrible blizzard may have
missed one of its supply depots
which are generally marked by an
upturned sledge with a flag lashed
to it.
The fact that Captain Amundsen
reached his base from the pole in
38 days which the Scott party had
been traveling more than 2 months
when disaster overtook them it is
believed to show that Scott must
either have met some misfortune,
possibly in a crevasse or encoun-
tered a succesison of blizzards. The
fact that petty officer Kvans died
from concussion of the brain as |
early as Feb. 17 seems to indicate |
some such accident, possibly in-
volving the loss of a portion of the
equipment.
Captain Oates died on March 17
• which clearly shows that the party
were in dire straits and must have
undergone terrible sufferings dur-
ing the remaining twelve days.
No news has been received as to
how the fate of Captain Scott and
his companions was discovered but
It . is assumed that a rescue party
.was dispatched from the base.

TRENTON, N. J. Feb. 10.—Joseph
P. Tumulty will be President Wilson's
private secretary, just as he has been
private secretary to Governor Wilson.
Mr. Tumulty is thirty-four years old
and has been prominent politically in
New Jersey for several years. He
campaigned for Mr. Wilson before the
election that made him governor and
then became the governor's private
secretary. He was appointed clerk
of the New Jersey supreme court last
November for a term of five years at
an annual salary of $6,000, but con-
tinued to act as secretary to the gov-
ernor without pay.
BLOODY RIOTS

Mutiny in Army Sunday Followed by Releasing of Felix Diaz and Bernardo Reyes
and Fierce Fighting.—Combatants Quiet Monday, Each Awaiting
Attack—United States Will "Hands Off"
The City of Mexico was plunged into bloody strife Sunday, when a portion of the federal army
revolted and attacked the National Palace.
The rebels liberated Generals Felix Diaz and Bernardo Reyes, who led the storming of the
palace. Reyes was killed, and the attack was repulsed, President Madero in person heading his
loyal troops. * f *
A fierce conflict took place in the plaza before the palace, and from 150 to 250 were killed,
many of them being onlookers when the firing began.
Diaz, with a large force and many heavy guns captured the arsenal and powder factory where
he prepared for defense. | v 4
Madero is confident that the government wffl triumph and his conversation is characterized
by a happy smile and optimistic allusions. He considers the public is with the administration and
looks forward to developements tomorrow as the final act in what he regards as another foolhardy
attempt of General Diaz' newphew to restore the family name at the head of Mexico's official list.
The National Palace is guarded tonight by 800 men ol arms, with eight of more heavy guns.
General Diaz said he had no intention of making an attack but would await the government
forces. The camps present a great similarity, all arms being represented on both sides.

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 10.—Gen-
eral Felix Diaz whose bold fight
Sunday almost overthrew the Ma-
dero administration held his army
in leash today. Nor did the scat-
tered government forces dare to at-
tack him in his fortified position
in and about the arsenal.
Still hoping that he might se-
cure complete control without fur-
ther loss of life or destruction of
property, Gen. Diaz surprised the
capital by refraining from turning
his heavy gun upon the national
palace.

not materially altered since yester-
day, although a few of Blanquet's

The premier of Japan, Prince
Katsura, was stoned by a mob in
the streets. His resignation has.
been demanded by the people. Mobs
attacked the offices of the bureau-

dwellings of the ministers. They
burned and wrecked police stations,
tram cars and private buildings.
Detachments of troops patrol the

been served. They have their bay-

DECIDE A CASE
ON ITS MERITS
We always like to decide a case on its merits. When you get
technicalities out of the way and allow people to express their honest
sentiments, then they are satisfied. That is the only way to get justice
in the courts or in an election.
The proposed bond issues can not be decided upon their merits
until the city charter is amended. The people can not vote for all the
bond issues that are proposed, under the present situation. Neither
can they express their CHOICE for the bonds for ANY ONE PUR-
POSE.
If the bonds for ANY ONE improvement are submitted it may be
that the ones which a majority of the people would want would be
the ones NOT SUBMITTED TO A VOTE, and therefore it would be
impossible for the people to express their choice for them. If the

a desperate battle between striking
coal miners and officers in the
Kanawha county coal fields today.
Five companies of state militias
reached the troubled zone tonight.
The clash occurred near Mucki
low. Fred Lester in charge of mine
guards sought to head off several
hundred strikers attempting to
gain a position from which they
could fire on the town of Mucklow
and avoid the range of machine
guns. In this skirmish two of the
officers were shot dead. Reinforce-
ments appeared and during the af-
ternoon kept up a constant guerilla
warfare. At every point they werq
met by strikers and were steadily,
driven back.
The two Charleston companies
reached Ronda at 9:45 tonight. Im-
mediately squads were sent thru-

No one has been found who ac-

their failure to appear in public is
taken by many as an indication
that either they cannot get here or
are unwilling to fight.

The crowds reassembled around
the building of the newspaper Ko-

of burning it. The staff of the
newspaper offered strenuous resist-
ence with fire arms, swords and
knives. One of the rioters was kill-
ed by a bullet fired from the build-

the mob, which then looted shops
and attacked the officers of other
newspapers.
In a second attack on the Koku-
min Shimbun building bundles of
straw, soaked with oil, were set on
fire and thrown within. The fight-

persons were killed and more than
a score wounded.

At one time during the forenoon
General Huerta believed he Was
justified in risking an attack on
the rebels, but the latter trained
their guns down the streets leading
to their positions and prepared to
resist. Huerta's plan was*changed.
Then a report gained credence
that the rebels were about to take
the offensive and attack the Na-
tional Palace, but the day closed
without a single encounter between
the rebels and federals, stationed
about a mile apart. / One report,
which was not entertained serious-
ly was that the government pro-
posed to shell the capital in an ef-
fort to subjugate Diaz and his
troops. ^According to this plan, the
vernment' would plant its cannon
on a hill three miles out and from
there attempt to drop shrapnel
among the rebels.

ation occasioned by the Mexico City
mutiny.
The attitude of the federal army
officers is one of reserve and de-
fense of any government that may
be generally* recognized through-
out the republic.
Rebel representatives along the
border are equally confident that
no disorders will occur declaring
the revolution has triumphed
through the mutiny at the national
capital. The local rebel junta to-
day sent messages to all reb$l
chiefs in the north relating what
occurred at Mexico City and re-
commending that the rebels remain
inaetive only defending their posi-
tions against assault by federals.
The federals also it is stated will
remain in their positiona in • the
principal cities.
Manuel Lujan former rebel am-
bassador to Washington today tel-
egraphed Gen. Felix Diaz asking
recognition of the northern revo-
lutionists. He asked that Gen.

These orders were given after a

the army general staff.
Though little official informa-
tion was received by the govern-
ment from Mexico City, enough
facts were at hand to warrant de-
cision upon a course , of action,
which included renewal of the de-
termination to keep "hands off." In
announcing the dispatch of ships to

ment issued a statement outlining
the position of this government.

state department declares, "indi-
