Vera Cruz, July 11.—^The colony of ex-advlsers of President Huerta who have deserted that grizzled old war¬ rior in this, the hour of his greatest need and are sailing tomorrow for foreign climes on the Fr-?nch steamer Estagne received an addition today in the person of Adolfo de la Lama, minister of finance In the diclator'.s cabinet. Disheveled as to clothing, wearing no collar and with his face streaked w-ith dirt and perspiration, the once dignified director of the in¬ tricate financial affairs of Mexico, slipped aboard the shuttle train at the "Gap" today accompanied by a secretary and a body guard of two Tien. j (xreatly subdued in spirit and ob- | \iou?ly fearful of bodily harm, min¬ ister de la Lama seemed pathetically | grateful when General Funston in I person met him at the station and i a.ssurred him that he would ' c afford- { ed the protection of the .\merican troops in Vera Cruz. The party remained on the train until all fhe other pa.ssengers had left and was then escorted by a detail of marines to the Porte Cochero of the terminal station where two automo¬ biles were in waiting. De la llama's party was placed in the first and half a dozen armed soldiers fo'lowed in the second in a dash at top sjieed through the streets of Vera Cruz fo the wharf where a navy launch was in waiting to hear them to the Es- pa.ene which was anchored in mid¬ stream. On the train de la Lama had ner- \ ously insisted that he \\as going to Paris on a financial mi.ssion for Gen¬ eral Huerta. "T expect to return within six weeks," he said. "While T am abroad I will attempt tT> persuade the foreign c!-?ditors of .Mexico to grant the re¬ public an extension of time in the nayment of nterest on its foreign loans.

Neither Huerta nor my¬ self believe there is any prospect of the Immediate triumph of the revo¬ lution, hut Huerta is willing to do Michael Petagonis Swept From Seat Under Wheels Of Train In Mad Dash For Grade Crossing; Doctor Garrison Also Injured. VICTIM CONSIDERING PURCHASE Death in one of its most terrifyins forms ended the test trial of a new motorcycle being demonstrated by Dr. Harvey Garrison of Nanticoke and Michael Petagonis of Glen Lyon late yesterday afternoon. Petagonis was nipped from the rear seat of the iiiaclnne in a wild race for the Wananiie crossin? of the Lehigh & Wilkes- i Barre Coal Company between a train of thirty loaded ears and the flying cycle and ground to death beneath the car wheels while Dr. Garrison was thrown clear of th e tracks and escaped a similar fate by the narrowest margin. i Both men realized a few seconds before the accident that ; death was giving them a handicap tn their flight toward the tracks. i The train of cars, looming out suddenly from around a ciu've. were being pushed from a siding at No. 19 colliery of the coal company to the tracks bordering colliery No. IS and with the engine crew beyond sight of the crossing onl y the speed of the machine inter vened between safety and tragedy. Dr. Garrison brought the speed of the motorcycle to the last notch and with Petagonis clinging to the tandem seat of machine the desperate dash was made. The front wheel bounded over the tracks and Dr. Garrison was safe. An in¬ stant later there came a crash and wheel and driver tvere hurled to the roadside. Petagonis was caueht squarely by the colliding train. Falling under Ihe wheels he was cut almost in two and Avhen Dr. Garrison arose the wheels of the heavily laden cars were scattering the Gien Lyon man's remain* to either side of the track. It was Petagonis" first ride on the motorcycle and the demon stration was being made by D- G?rrison. the agent, with the un- dersianding thai the Glen Lyon man would buy the machine if it pr/)ved of merit. Petagonis, v.ho was only 20 years of age, had brought his mother to Nanticoke yesterday a ^'ternoon to examine the motorcycle and she witnessed the beginning of the fatefid ride. Dr. Garrison headed the machine toward the open country about Nanticoke and finally turned into the Main Road leading to Wan- amie. The raca for th© grossing began when the cyclists were hard¬ ly more than a hundred yards from the ti^cks and when the driver realized that to attempt to bring his mac)»«ie to a Halt meant that both would be thrr^vn beneath the cars. He turned the speed control to the last notch and the mad rcae -Kith life as the stakes was on. Given another second the motorcycle would have cleared the tracks. Petagonis figured in an automobile accident some time a^^o when a machine he was driving was wrecked and a partv of scho'ol girls thrown from it, some of them recei\-ing painful injuries SUNDAY SCHOOL PARTY WRECKED SIX DEAD ONE DYING, RVE HURT Rochester, N.

Oyster Bay, .V. V., July ll._-n-ith- in the last few daj-s a storm of pro¬ test has arisen among Progressives throughout the country against Col. Roosevelt making the run for Gover¬ nor. From every State letters andi telegrams have been pouring In on fhe Colonel and request him that he. not allow him.s6lf to be pushed into the race. The argument of Roosexelt leaders in the other .States is that he ought to .qa\e himself for the bigger fight of 1916. when they want him as the candidate for President. They tell hlin that, even if he wins the )?o-»-er- norship here he will have sacrificed' his becoming ¦% candidate for Presi¬ dent In 1916.

Former Advisers of Huerta Many of Them Wealthy Desert in Hour of Need
FIN.4NCE MAN IS LATEST
The following: Mexican patri¬ ot?, who have deserted Gen. Huerta as he approaches the cru¬ cial test of his fortunes will sail to-morrow- on the tre.-isure ship Espasme with sum^ estimated at from five to twenty-five millions of dollars going into voluntary eiile with their plund3r and leav¬ ing their erstwhile benefactor to fnre alone the inevitable over¬ throw of his government:
^ucrido M.-ihano. ousted min¬ ister of commerce and Industry, who is going to New '^"ork to ,i*- .sail the Wil.eon admlnistiratinnls interference policy.
.\dolfo De La, l^ama, Huerta's secretnry of treasury, who s.iys he i" -going abroad to .arrange a loan for Huerta.

Gen. Joaquin Mais, nephew of Huerta, who ''ays he has heen .assigned on a "technical military commission" in Paris.
Col. Marioma?. sub secretary of commerce and industrj' also en- route to gay Paris "to study mili¬ tary affairs."
Major Leopoldo de Zea. who was largely responsible for the indig¬ nities inflicted upon consul SilU- man at Saltillo.
Vera Cruz, July 11.—^The colony of ex-advlsers of President Huerta who have deserted that grizzled old war¬ rior in this, the hour of his greatest need and are sailing tomorrow for foreign climes on the Fr-?nch steamer Estagne received an addition today in the person of Adolfo de la Lama, minister of finance In the diclator'.s cabinet. Disheveled as to clothing, wearing no collar and with his face streaked w-ith dirt and perspiration, the once dignified director of the in¬ tricate financial affairs of Mexico, slipped aboard the shuttle train at the "Gap" today accompanied by a secretary and a body guard of two Tien. j
(xreatly subdued in spirit and ob- | \iou?ly fearful of bodily harm, min¬ ister de la Lama seemed pathetically | grateful when General Funston in I person met him at the station and i a.ssurred him that he would ' c afford- { ed the protection of the .\merican troops in Vera Cruz.
The party remained on the train until all fhe other pa.ssengers had left and was then escorted by a detail of marines to the Porte Cochero of the terminal station where two automo¬ biles were in waiting. De la llama's party was placed in the first and half a dozen armed soldiers fo'lowed in the second in a dash at top sjieed through the streets of Vera Cruz fo the wharf where a navy launch was in waiting to hear them to the Es- pa.ene which was anchored in mid¬ stream.
On the train de la Lama had ner- \ ously insisted that he \\as going to Paris on a financial mi.ssion for Gen¬ eral Huerta.
"T expect to return within six weeks," he said. "While T am abroad I will attempt tT> persuade the foreign c!-?ditors of .Mexico to grant the re¬ public an extension of time in the nayment of nterest on its foreign loans.

Michael Petagonis Swept From Seat Under Wheels Of Train In Mad Dash For Grade Crossing; Doctor Garrison Also Injured.
VICTIM CONSIDERING PURCHASE
Death in one of its most terrifyins forms ended the test trial of a new motorcycle being demonstrated by Dr. Harvey Garrison of Nanticoke and Michael Petagonis of Glen Lyon late yesterday afternoon. Petagonis was nipped from the rear seat of the iiiaclnne in a wild race for the Wananiie crossin? of the Lehigh & Wilkes- i Barre Coal Company between a train of thirty loaded ears and the flying cycle and ground to death beneath the car wheels while Dr. Garrison was thrown clear of th e tracks and escaped a similar fate by the narrowest margin.
i Both men realized a few seconds before the accident that
; death was giving them a handicap tn their flight toward the tracks. i The train of cars, looming out suddenly from around a ciu've. were being pushed from a siding at No. 19 colliery of the coal company to the tracks bordering colliery No. IS and with the engine crew beyond sight of the crossing onl y the speed of the machine inter vened between safety and tragedy. Dr. Garrison brought the speed of the motorcycle to the last notch and with Petagonis clinging to the tandem seat of machine the desperate dash was made. The front wheel bounded over the tracks and Dr. Garrison was safe. An in¬ stant later there came a crash and wheel and driver tvere hurled to the roadside. Petagonis was caueht squarely by the colliding train. Falling under Ihe wheels he was cut almost in two and Avhen Dr. Garrison arose the wheels of the heavily laden cars were scattering the Gien Lyon man's remain* to either side of the track.
It was Petagonis" first ride on the motorcycle and the demon stration was being made by D- G?rrison. the agent, with the un- dersianding thai the Glen Lyon man would buy the machine if it pr/)ved of merit. Petagonis, v.ho was only 20 years of age, had brought his mother to Nanticoke yesterday a ^'ternoon to examine the motorcycle and she witnessed the beginning of the fatefid ride. Dr. Garrison headed the machine toward the open country about Nanticoke and finally turned into the Main Road leading to Wan- amie. The raca for th© grossing began when the cyclists were hard¬ ly more than a hundred yards from the ti^cks and when the driver realized that to attempt to bring his mac)»«ie to a Halt meant that both would be thrr^vn beneath the cars. He turned the speed control to the last notch and the mad rcae -Kith life as the stakes was on. Given another second the motorcycle would have cleared the tracks.
Petagonis figured in an automobile accident some time a^^o when a machine he was driving was wrecked and a partv of scho'ol girls thrown from it, some of them recei\-ing painful injuries
