AMBASSADOR DEEPLY MOVED
Viscount Chinda, at Washington, Is
Grie\«l at Suicides.
WASUINOTON. D. C., Sept. 13.-\la-
count Chiiida, J a, aiieie ambassador here. ,
was Inexpressibly shocked at the tragic
death of Geueral Nogi and his wife, the
ambassador recalling th< fact that In
the dayi of feudal Japan, when the
lord of the manor dl$.t, It was by no
means an uncommon practice for his
close descendants and friends to commit
■ulclde In order that the spirit of the
Jeceased should not make the last Jour-
Bey alone. In r. ent years, and In the
new Japan, this custom has been gen- ,
erally abandoned
I EL
The tact that General Nogi and his
wife had lost their t^o sons .unng the
Russo-Japanese war, leaving than prac-
tically without family lies, had centeitd
then' affections and de\ot.on upon the
late Emperor, Mutsulilto, and it was
doubtless- the case that upon his death
the mind of the old warrior succumbed
to the strain.
Judge Advocate General Enoch Crow-
ded, one of the few American army offi-
cers who came closely In contact with
General Nogl during tile Russo-Japanese
war, regarded General Nogi as a man of
more than usual -elf poise and self-com-
mand- The old Samurai Instinct, It was
plain to be seen, said General Crowder,
had strong hold upon his persor.ality and
It was doubtless the ancient early faith
that brougiit General Nogi to self-de-
Btriictloa. General Nogl never had vis-
ited America.
Proves He is a True Member of the
Samurai, Says M. Suzuki, Mer-
chant From Tokio.
"I am not surprised at the death of
General Nogl. It was entirely in keep-
ing with his character as we knew; It In
Japan, and proves he was in truth and
In fact a true member of the Samurai,
the ancient nobility of my country."
This was the statement of M. Suzuki, a
merchant and business man of Tokio,
registered ai the Savoy yesterday, who
was passing through San Antonio to the
City of Mexico.
"In our country we rail that act harl-
Icari," said Mr. Suiukl In German, the
only language, other than Japanese,
which he speaks.
"It is highly honorable, and although
fallen Into disuse in recent, years, Is still
recognized by our laws. In olden titties
the death of an emperor was marked by
the voluntary death of many—his friends,
advisors, wives and servants. The sacri-
fice of ilfe for love of another Is the
highest and greatest act or.e ma; per-
form, and one who makes It is Justly en-
titled, In our eye.i, to praise.
"Hari-kari is committed with the old
fighting sword of tiie Samurai, and death
is almost instantaneous. By a thrust
and a twist the person committing It
disembowels himself, and while one is
only called upon to make the stroke
once, the members of the Samurai prac-
tice it until there can never be a mistake.
I am firmly convinced that had our war
with Russia terminated other than in a
complete victory for Japan, our beloved
emperor himself would have committed
hari-kan, and that fully half the gen-
erals who were engaged in It, or directed
the operations, would have done likewise.
'General Nogl was a stern old warrior
who was a tower of strength to the mili-
tary prowess of Japan, but his example
in this, the I,i t ; real act of his life,
will raise him even higher in the estima-
tion of the people, and keeps alive that
contempt for death so essential to the
maintenance of a fighting force."

him is another question nobody oan

Treasury officials were entirely mute and
mum 'att night Those who would admit
the} Had heard of the matter it w.as
up to the President to do whatever mik-
ing there is to lie done As to the out-
come they would make no «onjeeture.
DOWK WIDELY KNOWN.
There arc few men in the customs serv-
ice of the United States fo£ttei known
fia.ii Robert H. Dowe. He has held office
in Maverick County for twenty-Mx years,
ile became a deputy sheriff there when
he was a very young man, and admit-
ted!-. a Republican, was elected Sheriff
and Tax Collector In that Deinocratio
county four times.
On February 2, 1902, he was appointed
collector of customs al Kagle I'a.-s by
Theodore Roosevelt He was reappointed
twice. His term docs not expire, under
the usual regulation!*, until February 2.
1914. «
In 1900 the fnlted States Government
collected sometl.it * like fc\000 at the port
of Eagle Pass Collections for the fisca.1
year, ending Juno 30. 1912, amounted to
more thaVi $74,400. This Immense Increase,
it is admitted, was largely due to the
work of the collector and his deputies.
There is i letter from Secretary of the
Treasury Franklin JlacVeagh to Mr
Dowe—referred to In Dowe's telegram to
t urtle—which, it Is said, puts all the ob-
jections to Dow:- pn the score of his fail-
ure to support President Taft for a re-
nomination If the President decides to
kick Mr. Dowe into private life the mat-
ter Is expected to receive National atten-
tion. In the heat of the campaign, it
is thought ■•Lire, ever Oolonel^Roosevelt
will not hesitate to make use of the cir-
cumstances
"The correspondence telli all 1 care to
say now," said Mr Dowe at the Qunter
last night. 'I shall have nothfn£ to add
to that until there are further develop-
ments."
There aTe many who expect not only
the dismissal of Dowe but the firing of
other very prominent Federal uppbintees
In Texas- some of them with headquar-
ters in San Antonio The reasons for all
these anticipations are based on the fact
the officials Id question are known to
have oeen friends of Roosevelt and are
believed to be In sympathy with him now
Some of these men who are making
prognostications of this sort—and all of
them took active part In the Taft cam-
paign for delegates-say the "slaughter"
is on the way and that the request for
the resignation of Mr. Dowe Is the for-
mal beginning.

Rebels Withdrawn From Neighbor-
hood of Agua Prieta—Interven-
tion Threatened.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 13.-There
was a distinct air of relief In the War
Department today when General Schuyler
reported from Douglas, Ariz., the with-
drawal southward of the Mexican rebel
bands which had been threatening Agua
Prleta, acro«6 the border from Douglas.
The retreat is believed to be largely
due to the uncompromising attitude of
the American patrol.
Orders to prevent fighting at Agua
Prleta, If fire were directed toward Dou-
glas, would have been carried out to
the letter, according to the general staff,
even If that Involved the sending of
American troops across the international
boundary. .
While the situation on the border has
now been improved, reports continue to
arrive of revolutionary outbreaks in
other sections of Mexico. Zapatistas are
said to be threatening the town of An-
tigua, on the coast north of Vera Crua.
L'ut'isliiKs are momentarily expected In
the Stales of Coahuila and Nuevo Leon,
according to advices to the State Depart-
ment. The rebels' plans in that cjuarter
are said to Include the capture of Mon-
terey and Saltillo, and the destruction
of San Pedro, the home town of Presi-
ded Madero. .
The Mexican government is said to be
hurrying reinforcements to HI tlgre, bo-
nora where la situated one of the richest
mine's In Mexico, operated by American
capital. An attack by the rebels there
Is said to be imminent.

OJINAGA ANCIENT TOWN
Revolution's Storm Center Once Aztec
Village.
MARFA, Tex., Sept. 13.-Ojinaga, the
present scene of rebel activity in the State
of Chihuahua, Mexico, is one of the an-
cient towns of that republic, having been
discovered . several hundred year* bed,
then an Indian village, by the Spanish
explorer Bus.
It Is located Just across the Rio Grande
from the American towu of Presidio ami
was first known »» Presidio del Norte.
It is situated on a commanding hill on
the northwest of which flows the Concho
River thus protecting tills side by pre-
cipitous bluffs, while from the southeast
the hill gradually stands to the Rio Grande
and range of mountains.
Before the building of the Southern Pa-
cific OJluaga was »n important commer-
cial point, being on the old Han Antonio
and Chihuahua road which branched off
from the El Paso overland route near
Pena, Colo., close to Marathon, Tex. OJi-
nagn then contained about R.00O inha-
bitants, since the building of the rail-
road the town has gradually declined, und
when tlie Madero revolution of 1010 broke
out, It contained only 2,000.
In the last year the population has fur-
ther decreased to about 1,200 and the Mex-
ican government has located their commo-
dious custom bouse, snd in the headquar-
ters for a number of rurales or mounted
river guards. As b rule, the Mexican side
la better patrolled than the American
Bide.
From OJlnnga looking southwest up the
valley of the Concho culled the Nile of
Mexico, can b* seen for thirty miles cul-
tivated farms. Recently the entire val-
iny tirvB been under water from a great
rise lu the river caused by Immense floods
in the mountain ranges to the south.
Corn crops are reported ruined or badly
damaged.
ELECTRICITY TO HELP THE MIND
Wired Rooms Make School Children
More Healthy and Studious.
A practical teat of the invigorating in-
fluences upon human life of high fre-
quency electrical currents will be made
in New York. Superintendent Maxwell
of the public school* and Nikola Tesla
are arranging to wire certain school
rooms and repeat the experiment that
was successfully tried last year in Swe-
den.
It is proposed to wire a school room,
unknown to either teachers or pupils,
and, after a period, make close compari-
son with pupils of the same claba in an
unwlred room. It was found In Stock-
holm that the children ill an flectrlc
loom Increased bodily vigor greatly ntore
than others In the same school, and that
their class standing averaged 92 per cent,
as compared with 75 per cent for the
other classes.—Wall Street Journal.
