BE1ETI, ECCENTRIC EDITOR j ... New York Herald Always Revolutionized During Owner's Visits. EDITORS "SWAP" JOBS WITH BOYS One Employe Taken on Trip. Told to Save, and Marooned. Bad Enough, Sorely. "Doctor, tell me the worst, I bear up bravely." "Well, I think It win be necessary for roe to come to see you every day for at least two weeks yet" Chicago L Qort wjnilRecord-Hersid. . NEW YORK, NW 15 It IS rumor ed that James Gordon Bennett will arrive In New Fork any day. Hence the New York Herald staff sits anxiously awaiting the usual eruption Mr. Bennet never eomea to New York without turning tha Herald topsy-turvy. Usually tha revolution which accompanies his visits is not anticipated. He has given no notice of his coming. In front of an ' artlstlo building, between Thlrty-iflfUi and Thirty sixth streets, Is a luxurious office. Oriental rugs cover the floor. Beau tiful pictures adorn the walls. On a flat topped mahogany desk is a vase whloh is filled with flresh flower every morning. This Is the private offloe of James Gordon Bennett, owner of the New York Herald. He occupies It less than seven days a year, for Mr. Bennett edits the Her ald from Paris. Bennett's success til editing the Herald at long range is traceable In part to the uncertainty which sur rounds his movements'. iNo one In the New York (Jfflce is ever sure Just where he is. , It is not unusual for ' Bennett to send for one of his editors to come to Paris. , The message comes quite unexpectedly, the editor boards the next steamer and reports at the of fice of the Paris Herald. Quite pos sibly Bennett, after greeting htm says: t . "What ere you doing here?" The editor explains that he came on a call from Mr. Bennett "Did I send for you?" Bennett will saj. "I don't remember why. Well, en joy yourself around Paris for awhile and report at this office every day. I may want to talk with you." At the end 'of a week or two the editor1 goes bask to New York, all expenses paid. Trip Ends Disastrously. It Is told in the Herald office that one day Bennett sent for an editor whose work had pleased htm espe cially and asked him to go for a yachting trip so that they could talk over business at leisure. The editor enjoyed the hospitalities of the yacht for several days. There was not much said about business, but every one was having a delightful time. One evening the conversation turned to whiskers. The editor had a luxur iant growth of which he was proud. Bennett took the ground that whis kers were unornamental and un sanitary. He expressed a strong aver sion to whiskers; said that it dis gusted him to have them about; and ended by announcing that he expect ed everyone on board to appear at breakfast the next morning clean shaven. On the following morning the editor carefully brash ed his whiskers and went on deck. When Bennett saw him, he said! "I thought I told you fb eut eft those whiskers." The editor drew himself up proud ly. - - "Mr. Bennett," he said, "you have a right to my editorial services and to the disposal of my tlmej but my whiskers ars my own." "Oh, they are," said Bennett. "Here, captain. Order out one of the boats and set this man with his luggage and his whiskers ashore on that point of land." And it was. dons. The whiskers were left marooned on a rather de serted coast. ' 1 .v Cable Many Stories for Approval. Editing a paper by cable has Its difficulties. It is not difficult to have matter submitted for Bennett's per sonal approval when he can be reached. A long editorial or a special article can be cabled quickly. Ben nett Is one of the owners of the cattle line. But It is not possible always to reach Mr. Bennett with a message. And as his orders concerning certain matters are positive his editors are often In a dilemma. One night the editor in charge received by cable an editorial with instructions to run it the next morning. On reading It, he was of the opinion that It would offend many persons whose good will the Herald wanted and he was sure If be obuld suggest this to Mr. Bennett, the editorial .would be can celed. So he tried to' get htm by cable. Mr, Bennett was not to be found. So the editor took It on himself to withhold the editorial. On the follow ing day he got Mr. Bennett and ex plained the matter to him. Word came back from the Paris offloe to this effect: "You are entirely right. Km the editorial. But you were ordered by me to print that editorial on a cer tain day and you disobeyed my or der. Therefore you are discharged." OEOROB GRANTHAM BAIN. Too Fievlwa, "Who are youl" asked the famous actress. "I'm the burg!ar, ma'am. I came to steal your Jewels." "How an noying! I can't be bothered with you, now.

IS. Gen. Venustlano Carransa wtll net con sider any means of accomplishing peao In Mexioo except through the forceful overthrow of the Huerta government The constitutionalists' political and military leader today issued the following announcement: "We will recognise nobody who succeeds Huerta by the power which he has usurped." This statement was oocaaioned by various suggestions resetting here through the press and semi-ofOolal channels that certain persons might be acceptable to both Huerta and Carranca'a presidential interim. No name yet' suggested o Carransa has brought an encouraging reply. Successes ef the revolutionist re ported today added greatly to the already cheerful attitude of officials here attending the negotiations con ducted with Washington through William Bayard Hale, representative of President Wilson. It was asserted that while the hitherto unrecognized revolutionists now had direct -; and friendly relations with Washington, Provisional President Huerta had none. '. Important Factor. The taking today of Juaret by Vil la's forces, the capture yesterday of Cullcan, capital of Slnola, and the attack today on Victoria, capital of Tarn au 11 pas, on the Gulf of Mexico, it was asserted, would aJTeot materially the International stats tea of the revo lution It ws asserted the revolu tion had doubled la Importance in ternationally In the last week. 0neral Carrama's announcement today regarding a successor to Huerta was taken as voicing a more radical stand of the constitutionalists than existed during the first revott headed by Francisco I. Madero. Many of Carransa's edvi&era were said to be strongly opposed to any compromise, such as was credited to Madero pre vious to his election. It was asserted that the remnants of the Diss gov ernment, which Madero permuted to remain entrenched, were responsible for his ultimate overthrow and the declaration was made that the pres. ent movement would not ' sandtlon any ehange of government at the national oapltal except by force ot arms, to be followed by general elec tion J The suspense tncldent to the pend ing dlplomatto relations with the United States waa lightened today by the messaes in which General Huerta congratulated General Carransa on his stand in regard to mediation by any foreign nation. On all sides the matter waa taken Bghttyi It w re ceived with amusement and was not considered likely to affect the attitude of the Mexican people In general to ward the, United mates.
