Brunsvvick, Germany, April 21.-- The dirigible balloon faiseval VI met with a mishap ten miles north of this place today and was forced to make a rough lauding. The passengers es caped injury and tlie airship was not seriously damaged, though it lies partly in a sw'amp and will of neccs-, sity be dismantled and sent to Bitter- field by train. The accident brought to an end what promised to be a successful non stop night from Berlin to Amster dam. The airship, w’hich w'as occu pied by ten persons, including two military oi.-cers, of the Netherlands, rose at Berlin at 4:30 o’clock this morning, sailing away toward Amster dam at a clip of 34 miles an lioitr. Oebisfelde, Saxony, was passed soon afier 1 o’clock, the 'dirigile going strong ' despite rather * s'trong wind currents. - - Between Isenbuttel and .Lieforde the aerial craft was flying low w’hen she encountered a gust of wind that compelled her to slow up. At the mo ment the free end of a rope that dangled from the car caught in tlie branches of a great birch tree and gave the airship a yank that broke her balance. This, combined with the high wind made necessary an imme diate descent which was fairly well accomplished, though - with - some strain to the dirigible and the shak ing up of her .passengers. By Associated Press. Washington, April 21.—Six days of debate on the Canadian reciprocity bill came to an end in the house of representatives this morning with speeches of the three leaders in the fight, Representatives Underwood, of Alabama, McCall, of Massachusetts, and Dalzell, of Pennsylvania. Crowded galleries heard the concluding speech es, Mrs. Tait occupying a seat in the executive gallery. The house now begins a rapid fire consideration of the bill under the Brivilege of amendment and five min ute speeches. Washington, April 20.^—The house of representatives entered today upon what the leaders hope is the final stage of consideration of the reciproc ity bill. Strenuous efforts are under way to force a vote before 'adjourn* ment today. It was agreed at a conference be tween Mr. Underwood and Represen tative McCall, of Massachusetts, and Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, that gen eral debate would close at 3 p. m., and remarks under the five minute rule be in order. Today’s debate in cludes speeches by Mr.* McCall and Mr. Dalzell, the former in advocacy of the measure and the latter against it. Mr. Underwood, as majority leader, claimed the privilege of closing the debate. The situation is complicated by the great number of amendments ot- feretl to the bill. Many of these are not germane, however, and will be thrown out. The remainder, many of which have been* offered to delav ac tion, will provide diflSculties, for their sponsors are prepared to demand roll calls. For th«se .reasons' doubt is ex pressed by some house leaders that a vote can be reached without contin uing the session into the night. Oth ers believe Mr. Underwood will resort to “steam roller ‘ methods and force action. The democratic “steam roller’* has proved itself effective this session and the optimists of their pjirtj' are pinning their faith to it on this oc casion. LT OP D.

Prospects 0/ AnAimstice ’By Associated Press. Washington, April 21.—Confusion as to the intepretation oi’ an “armis tice” is believed by Dr. Vasquez Go mez, head' of the confidential agency here of the Mexican . revoiutionsists, to be responsible for tlie hitch in the truce which had been partially ar ranged with the Mexican government and which GeneraL Mkdero rejected yesterday. Dr. Gomez,sent a long telegram* to Madero. today in which he pointed out that it w'as necessary not to con fuse the armistice ’ proposition with the peace proposals w'hich Vere to follow. • • He declared ' in his message that neither side would gain or lose by an armistice, the prijnary condition be ing'that the status quo be imposed bn all military operations, which would include of course the shipment of arms or the bringing up of rein forcements to the noi;th of Mexico, a thing which General Madero yes terday- said was probably the Mexican government’s idea in favoring the ar mistice. Dr. Gomez is said to have indicated to the rebel chief the needlessness of an attack on Juarez now, in view of the fact- that if'there is a disa greement in IJie peace negotiations following the armistice. General Ma dero still -would be in a position to attack Juarez. The ultimatum issued by General Madero to the effect that he would attack Juarez today unless he was assured that - President Diaz would resign had beeji formally communicat ed to Dr. Gomez to the Mexican gov« ernment. Mr.* Gomez was not optimis tic as to a favorable response. He is said to be of the opinion that while the retirement of President Diaz is an ultimate-‘‘necessity for the com plete restoration of tranquility- in the republic, a "state of anarchy and lawlessness would be likely tg fol low any announcement or assurances that Genefal Diaz w'ould abdicate the presidency; ■ • - It is said that Dr. Gornez believes an assurance that Diaz would rgsign should be - given only after ' all the other conditions of peace are arrang ed, which he thinks would occupy at least a month, aup.^n which time the country would be returning' to its normal condition. El Paso, Texas, April 21.—If the Mexican government would; avoid in ternational complications, it must or der General Navarro to evacuate Jua rez at onCe. This was the ultimatum sent .by Francisco Ma'dero, jr., to' Dr. “Va&quez Gomez, at Washington, today,, to be communicated to the Mexican govern ment. In addition General Madero sent w'ord toDr. Gomez by way of the El Paso junta that he was well aware of the differences between an “armistice” and “peace negotiations.” General Madero has taken the position that an evacuation of Juarez is essential be fore he will consider an. armistice. He wants to establish headquarters from which to conduct formal negotia tions with the Mexican government. The reply of the Diaz government is expected to be received here from Dr.-Gomez and it is probable that an Attack on Juarez .will be postponed Until this arrives. THREHV A emss UP THt ]M[ By Associated Press. Viterbo, Italy, April 21.—Of all the methods adopted by the Camorrist prisoners to excite sympathy or incite a riot none surpassed in novelty or effectiveness that of Gaeteno Espo sito, who, at the end of a mad har- ranfeue today, tore a glass eye from his head, and, hurling it at the feet of thep resident, stampeded the court. Then he fell in a faint and President Bianchi suspended the sitting.

London, Saturday, April 15.—The government’s long promised copyright bill passed its second reading in the house of commons. The measure not only sets forth amendments based on the coi>yright convention of 190.S, but codifies the common law on copyright and the existing statutes, numbering al)Out twenty. Coi)yright under the amended law would run as a general rule duiring the life of the author and fifty years after. Foreign authors may acquire copyright by making first pub lication within British dominions, but may be deprived of it by the govern ment if the country to which they belong rehises adequate protection to British authors. Imprisonment is substituted for a fine as a punishment for piracy and there is a clause giving authors protec tion against state performances of any copyrighted work froni pirated copies. Photographs, gramophone records and perforated music rolls are to have copyright, the term being for fifty years from the time the negative or plate is made. Opening vj. Big Chess 1 oumauent By Associated Press. ^ New York, April, 21.—The opening of play today in the thirteenth annual cable chess match 'between America and Great Britain begins a contest that may definitely decide possession of the trophy given by the late Sir George Newnes.

April 21.—(National)— Pittsburg-Cincinnati game postponed. Rain, By Associated Press. Washington, D. C., April 21.—^Rein- forced by Lieut.-Governor Nichols, of Ohio, the democratic congressional del egation of that state, met today in Senator Pomerene’s oflflce formally to launch a boom for Governor Judson Harmon for the democratic presiden- have never regarded modern reciproc- it.v as demo^*ratic doctrine. Reciproc- ial free trade between Canada and the Ufiited States, as embodied in the agreement in 1854 may be democratic, but there is no more similarity be- tvi’een that treaty and the measure now under consideration than there is between day and night. For thirty years afte;- 1854 the democrats never mentioned reciprocity until 1892 when they did declare in favor of trade interchange on the basis of reciprocal 1 advantages, but denounced the sham reciprocity which juggles with the people’ desires for enlarged foreign markets and freer exchanges by pre tending to estai)lish closer trade re lations between a coiintr.v whose^ ex ports are chietty agricultural 'pro ducts with another country Whose ex ports are also agricultural while erect ing a barrier of prohibitive tariff against the richest countries of the world that stand ready to take our entire surplus of production and to export their commodities which are necessaries and luxuries of life among our people. That clause in the democratic platform on 1892 fits the desci ii tion of tiie present recii)roc- ity measure for I say in all candor that it is a sham and a fraud and as undemocratic as it can be. I ask now, if there is any democrat in this house who will arise in his seat and say that this treaty is demo cratic in principle. Modern reciprocity was born in New England. It is a New England cult, originated by James G. Blaine, advocated by Grant, Arthur, Harrison, McKinley, Roose velt and now by Mr.. Taft. Republi can platforms in three different elec tion years praised modern reciproc ity and pointed to it with pride. The Democi-atic congressional committee of 1902, the year I w'as first elected to congress sent out a hand book and in that hand book a chapter was devoted to reciprocity and in that chapter we find such choice expres sions as “Reciprocity is a delusion and a snare. Reciprocity is a sham and a humbug. The farmers are not sending *men to Washington for the passage of such reciprocity treaties for it cannot help them.’’ I think it is a delusion and a stiam. On this cam paign committee were such distin guished democrats as Governor W. W. Kitchin, of North Carolina; Judson llarmon, Clark Howell and other lead ers in the party. The democrats in 1897 repealed the reciprocity treaties then in existence and the repub licans inserted section three of the McKinley tariff law of 1890, at the instance of Nelson W. Aldrich and under this section three .y'arious trea ties were negotiated which were later repealed by the democii tic con gress and for which the republicans condemned the democrats seve^’ei:. In 1897, the republican members 'if tial nomination in 1912. The campaign is to be conducted ways and means committee sign- by the lieutenant governor, who read to the dele-ration a large number of letters, he had received, “indicating,” ed a report declaring that the repeal ing by the democrats of this reci procity treaty was a public calam- he said, “that encouragement is ^ wiiile the democrats of the ways coming from all sections ot the Unit ed States.” and means committee declared they could see no good' reason for entei- ing into commercial alliances re* t stricting the freedom of commercial I legislation in this country, that uni- Gas Men Adjourn.
