I.aredo, Tex., Nov. 19.—Rumors
that Francisco Madero, recently an
aspirant for the presidency of Mex-
ico, had left San Antonio, were veri-
fied tonight on what is considered
unimpeachable authority! It is said
he arrived at Cotulla, Tex., where
he was Joined by several companions
and after securing horees and a guide,
proceeded to some point in Mexico,
In ail probability, his own lands in
tile state of Coahulla.
What the intention of the alleged
move of Madero means, is only con-
jectured, but may be the revolution-

endeavor to incite the revolution in
Mexico.
It Is stated furthermore fhe United
.States government has granted the
request of Mexico, and this, it is 'be-
lieved, is responsible for his de-
parture from Sam Antonio.
Both the American and Mexican
governments are active along the bor-
der and have secret aglints In the
field, the one government in an en-
deavor to prevent violation of
neutrality law*, while the other is
making every effort to prevent the

interior.
The Mexican authorities have
troops at points along the river from
Laredo on the lookout for Madero
to effect his capture.
As far as actual conditions along
the border- are concerned, the Mexi-
can government has a sufficient force

No trouble is expected along the

in some of the Interior states of the
republic of Mexico.

PUEBLA DISTURBANCE
Special to The Times.
i Washington, P, C.. Nov. 19. Honor de
/la Barra, the Mexican ambassador to the
1 United States, received a dispatch tonight
from Minister of Foreign Affairs Creel,
confirming press dispatches of the dis-
turbance at Puebla.
Mr. Creel telegraphed that order had
been completely re-established, and that
every possible measure had been taken
to prevent a recurrence of the outbreak.

other city of similar size in the country,
and it requires but some one to make the
way/ possible for them to respond gen-
erously.
"El Paso's recent progress in all direc-
tions fully attests to the city's growth
and stability, and surely on this Thanks-
giving there must be a spirit of good will
and charity in the heart of every person
who is so fortunate os to be where the
prospects for the future are so bright.
"Thanking you for the consideration,
and trusting to have your approval and
assistance,
"I am respectfully,
"JOSEPH P. GLA8S,
"Crawford Theatre."
The above generous proposition of
Manager Joseph D. Glass is accepted by
the Times. The Time* will have a suf-
ficient number of automobiles to carry
the workers mentioned above from
place to place, while a float will be fur-
nished upon which the concerts will be
given. An orchestra will be provided to
supply the music, while the vocal work
will be furnished by Mr. Glass and his
company, who have so generously volun-
teered their services.
There, however, remains one thing to
be attended to, and that is the collec-
tion which will be taken up from the
many generous-hearted of El Paso dur-
ing the progress of the concerts. For
this service lady volunteers are desired
to serve in this noble cause.
Wtho will volunteer? Twenty ladles
are needed. You will be carried from
place to place, badges showing your au-
thority in connection with the Times'
Thanksgiving fund, together with baskets
for the reception of the same, will be fur-
nished.
All that is asked of you Is that you
lend us the value of your presence and
assistance'in providing a fund for the
use of the Times in cases similar to this
one.
On Friday, October 14th, a Mexican
woman was approached in an alley be-
tween El Paso and Santa Fe streets and
handed a bundle. Upon examination this
bundle proved to be a little infant not
more than a week old, cast upon tihe
world through no fault of its own. The
Mexican woman who received it had no
means to care for it, so another Mexican
girl, Maria Delgado, a tender-hearted ac-
tress at a theatre close by. volunteered
to take the babe and later was given au-
thority to keep it by Judge Eylar. How-
ever, matters went hard with the poor
little thing, and a few days ago it wa*
delivered to a local hospital, emaciated
and in a dying condition. The good
nurse cared for it, but in vain, and today
it fills a nameless grave.
The Times accepts the generous offer
of Mr. Glass and ihls company to establish
a fund so that any cases of a similar na-
ture occurring in the future can be pro-
vided for and the lives of such little
motherless babes saved. The fund
will, however, not be devoted to mother-
less babieH alone, but other children who
also are in dire .straits, neglected and
sadly in need.
Save the babies! Who will helpj.'
Ladies volunteering will please send
their names and addresses to the Times
at once, that they may be advised fully
as to the program of the two hours’ work
Thanksgiving morning.

Associated y?css Dispatch.
Washington Nov. 19. — Four men
were killed today by the premature
explosion of a five-inch gun at the
Indian Head proving grounds of the
navy. The breech block of the gun,
which was being tested blew back-
ward into the gun crew. Lieutenant
Arthur G. Caffe© was one of the men
killed.
The dead killed jn addition to Lieu-
tenant Caffee are:
J. L. Brown, bakery foreman, in-
stantly killed.
Nelson Jackson, a negro bakery at-
tendant, died shortly afterward.
J. J. Leary, ordnance man died at

the gun crew, was seriously injured
The ordnance bureau has ordered
a board of inquiry to develop detail,*

which, so far as can be learned, were
John C. Coleman and Sidney Dyson,
both colored.
The gun, which was a new one from
the navy yard gun factory had been
fired twice. The accident occurred !
during the third round, just as the
breech was being closed. The acci- I
dent was similar to the explosion that

Associated Press Dispatch.
Mexico City, Nov. 19.—Reports from
Puebla, where revolutionary rioting oc-
curred yesterday, are that the town is
quiet today. Similar reports are received
from interior cities. Estimates of the
number killed In the fighting vary from
100 to 170.
On this point, however, no reliable in-
formation is obtainable.
Strong forces of cavalry and Infantry are
patrolling the streets and pickets and
sharpshooters occupy the church towers.
The revolutionary movement, which be-
gan when policemen attempted to break
up a meeting of antl-re-electionlsts, ap-
pears to have ended with the capture of
the home of Jose Cerdan, who is credited
with having headed the rebels. Cerdan
is said to have escaped. He Is a grand-
son of General Miguel Alatrlste, former
governor of the state of Puebla.
Troops of artillery and cavalry are held
In readiness in this city to be rushed to
Puebla if occasion requires.
Forty-two alleged plotters against the
government have been arrested. They in-
clude the mother and sister of Cerdan. It
was the sister, and not Cerdan'* wlfe,^ as
first reported, who shot and killed Chief
of Police Cabrera and who In turn was
shot to death. The body of Cabrera was
thrown by the rebels Into the street,
xvhere it remained throughout the fight-
ing.
Estimates of the number killed In the
fight between soldiers and police on one
side and revolutionists on the other at
Puebla continued today to be placed at
from 100 to 170. Dispatches from that
city say It was certain that over 100 had
been killed In the conflict,
Aquites Cerdan, whose house was tlie
scene of the fight, was killed while re-
sisting arrest in a tunnel where he had
taken refuge. He fought to the last,
firing at the officers as soon as they
found his hiding place.
Troops In Control.
According to late advices from Puebla,
there was no fear of further trouble, as
the troops were In control of the situa-
tion. it was said that many factory em-
ployes were still talking In a revolution-
ary vein, but that there was no danger of
another outbreak.
The fighting was confined to the vicin-
ity of the Cerdan house, where many
revolutionists had gathered to discuss
plans for an uprising scheduled foi to-
morrow and where many guns had been
concealed. Secret service men heard of
the meeting and the authorities ordered
a squad of police to break It up.
When the officers approached the house
they met with resistance from the occu-
pants, who began to fire from the win-
dows and balconies. Calls for reinforce-
ments were sent to headquarters and
later Soldiers joined the police.
Fought Three Hours.
The fray lasted for three hours, and
during that time a constant fire from the
besieged and besiegers was kept up.
Many of the soldiers went to the tops of
adjoining buildings, some to church tow-
ers, and from these points of vantage
poured a steady si ream of bullets N»to
the home of Cerdan.
From within the dwelling the revolu-
tionists returned the shots. Those who
fell under the fire of the besieged lay
In the street until the fray ended, which
was only after the rebels had exhausted
their ammunition.
Upon a slackening of tile fire from
within the house the troops rushed In and
captured some forty survivors.
Not a pane of glass remained In the
window frames of the house, the doors
were riddled and hundreds of bullets were
embedded In the walls, while the dead
and wounded lay in the yard, rooms and
halls.
Active at Torreon.
Telegrams from Torreon, In northern
Mexico, say four men had been arrested
today when the police broke up a meet-
ing of Madristas. ’ Papers which are said
to have revealed plans for assault upon
a hank as the first move In the proposed
Insurrection, was seised. Notwithstand-
ing prevalent rumors of a proposed up-
rising against the government tomor-
row, the authorities appear to feel no
uneasiness over the prospect.
As a precautionary measure, the cus-
tomary Sunday hull fights have been pro-
hibited. Speaking tonight of the situa-
tion here. Governor \ lllermo d© Land a de
Escandon of the federal district, says:
No Uprising Today.
“There will be no uprising of the Ma-
deristas tomorrow. The government is
fully prepared to meet any demonstration
whatever and to crush It in its inrip-
iency. While we believe that the heralded
twentieth of November will pass as quiet-
ly as did today, wg also believe In being
fully equipped and in readiness for any
unexpected events which might occur."
He added that the entire republl ***

eating of the machine and rapid-fire
guns.
The president Is reported to be keenly
apprehensive of a revolution and to bo
holding himsslf In readiness to take the
field in person. Should he be beaten
back, close friends say he will retire to
Chapultepec heights and there fly the
flag of Mexico and his personal banner,
refusing to surrender, If It should come
to the pass that such would be demanded.
Other advisers are said to have remon-
strated with him for making war like
preparations, but the stubborn old gen- «
eral Is reported to have responded that he uccrciaxy
was never caught napping In hla life.
Chapultepec Is the same that witnessed
a hot fight between mexlco and Ameri-
cans during the former war with Mex-
ico. At the time there were but a small
company or two of Mexican cadets hold-
ing the fort when the American army
paused before It, after winning at Mo-
lina del Rey and Churrubusco, and de-
manded that they surrender. Upon a
negative answer being given they storm-
ed the fort. Every Mexican youth was
killed after a hand-to-hand fight and
their bodies now lie under a marble
shaft In Chapultepec grounds. A gar-
land of flower* la twined around this
shaft every year by the Americans of
Mexico City.

LOST SISTER-IN-LAW-
Associated Press Dispatch.
Los* Angeles, Cal., Nov. 19.—After
searching through the Insane asylums
and other public institutions In South-
ern California. Warren T. Currier, a
business man of Boston appealed to
the authorities here today to aid him
in the quest of his sister-in-law, Miss
Annie L. Hodge, a school teacher who
disappeared a few years ago after
receiving from her father, Charles
Hodge of Boston, a bequest of $30,-
000.. Currier believes that the woman
was robbed of her money and then
either murdered or immured In an
Insane asylum.
Miss Hodges came to California
twenty-five years ago and taught
school in Los Angeles, 8atv Diego,
Santa Ana and Chino. Home years
ago her father sent her $30,000. She
acknowledged receipt of the money.
Since then nothing has been heard
from her direct.
In his search Currier learned that
Miss Hodge had lived with Mrs
Charles Monaghan of Santa* Ana who
upon the sudden death of her hus-
band married "Celery Jim” Gordon.
The latter also died shortly after
ward. Currier traced Mrs. Gordon to
Philadelphia in an endeavor to ascer-
tain what became of his sister-in-law
after leaving the Monaghan home, but
lost the trail there.

Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
blamed the homesteader of the west
in part for the present high cost of
living in an address at the opening
here tonight of the United States
Land and Irrigation Exposition.
"The homesteader," he said, "is ,re-
ducing the field of operations of the
ranchman which is reducing the meat
harvest of the west and becoming
quite a factor in the cost of living.*'
Other causes, he said, were the
great irrigation to this country,
and the movement to the cities.
The recent tumble in prices of
meat he attributed to drought in the
range country and to the big corn and
oats crops.
lie declared that much remains to
bo done tn improving the country's
farming conditions. Expansion, ex-
ploitation and sidl robbery he con-
tinued have been too much the prac-
tice of the past.
The new lands opened under the
homestead act of half a century ago
"were often exploited," he asserted,
"for temporary profit by soil robbers
who were experts of their kind."
Owing to such farm management,
the yield of the acre in the United
.States gradually decreased. Little
Intensive farming was done.
"But none of our sonls," he added,
"are beyond redemption. The nulls

OVER $0,000,000 ESTIMATE
FOR NEXT TWO YEARS.
Special to The Times.
Austin. Tex.. Nov. 19. The comp-
troller's department today made pub-
lice the total amount estimated as
necessary for the support of the state
government for tin* next two fiscal
years, the aggregate being $9,126,-
704. Tho amount appropriated for
tho past two fiscal years was $9.
048,068, which b\ veto the governor
reduced to $7,04 7,068. The estimate
filed today does not include the
maintenance fund of the state uni-
versity, which is expecting the legis-
lature to provide for it by means of a
special tax. For the past two year**
the university received $590,000. It
is therefore seen that the increase
naked for is $1,878,636. Taking into
account the fact that a part of tho
amount appropriated by the fast legis-
lature wus for the redemption of
more than a million dollars of bonds
and the cost of the legislature, not
included today, it appears that the
Increase will total approximately $3,-
000,000. This is interesting on ac-
count of the fact that at t»>e recent
session of the legislature It was said
Campbell was trying to leave Colquitt
with a heavy deficit on his hands.

Astopova, Nov. 19.—Count Tolstoi
died peacefully here this morning.
Dr. Makovettsky and tho other at-
tending physicians and Countess Tol-
stoi, were at his side when the end
came.
Count Lyof Nlkolavttch Tolstoi,
usually called Count Leo Tolstoi,
novelist and social reformer, was
born August 28, 1828, at Yasnayg
Poliana, In the tD province of t Tula,
Kuala.
When twenty-three years of age ha
entered the army and served In tha
Caucasus and in the defense of Sebas-
topol against the British and French
Allied forces.
He first made a reputation in
literature by a series of vivid sketches
written from Sebastopol and w'hen he
loft the army soon after the Crimean
War. he devoted himself entirely to
literature.
His “War and Peace," a talo of the
Invasion of Russia by Napoleon in
1812 is regarded in ItU&sia as being
hla masterpiece, though his "Anna
Karenina" which appeared in 18 76
and "Tho Cossacks," found greater
favor abroad, where bis “Kreutzor
Sonata," translated in l^lM), also at-
tracted wide attention
Tolstoi wrote much on education and
published several short stories and
reniinlscenscH of childhood and
youth, but of recent yours he bad de-
voted himself to religious teaching*.
He made "return not evil" the key-
note of the Christain faith, and In-
Misted that the literal Interpretation
of the sermon on the mount \\as the
only rule of the Christian life The
I religious view of Tolstoi were set
i forth in his "Christ's Christianity,"
| and "M> Religion*"
I Jrt 1893 Tolstoi wrote "The King
j dom of God Within Us." an Important
: work on the social question, and In
1895 he wrote 'The Four Gospels
Harmonized and Translated."
' Hi* other works included “My Con-
! fSston," "Criticisms of Dogmatical
I Christianity," "What f Believe: What
i f« to Be Done?". "The Death of ivwn
j Ilytoh......The Power of Darkness" <*
| drama!. "On Life." "The Fruit* of
| Enlightenment" (u comedy». "The
Kingdom of God is Within You,"
"What Is Ara." 'The Christian Teach*
■ lug." "The Resurrection," "The Slav-
ery of our Times," "What is Re-
ligion?" and many other works on the
most varied subjects.
In 1901 Tolstoi was ex-communi-
cated by the holy synod and in •Octo-
ber 1902. he deposited his memoirs
and diaries with the curator of the
: Rumysanzoff museum on- the comli-
. tlon that the.v should not be published
' until ten years after his death, and
in November of the same year, he
legally made over his whole fortune.
Including hl« real and personal es-
tate, to his wlf» and children.
In 1895 Tolstoi wrote a powerful
vindication of the Du k ho ho r Beet,
which in That year had suffered great
i persecution. On tho Russian sensor
refusing to permit, its publication Tol-
stoi applied to the London Times,
which printed his lengthy artieb*s in
full. He continued from that time on
to addres his Horary efforts to tho
British press. On March 1 7. 1896,
the London Dally Chronicle published
<i long letter from Tolstoi to a cor-
respondent In England on the Vene-
zuela. dispute, which had reeentlt
arisen between the United State* anol
Great Britain. It was a strong in*
diriment of war.
Tolstoi was several times threaten-
ed with expulsion from Russia, and
was several times, according to re-
port. upon the point of being exiled;
but he seamed on the whole to hav*
been treated with unusually leniency
In view’ of his pronounced views, and
especially as set forth In a manifesto
entitled "The People's Rights," hli
criticisms of imperial acts and his
open letters to the Emperor. He vM*.
however, expelled from Moscow In
July. 1901, and had since resided at
Yasnaya Poiiana.
