N'EHH HILL PASSED. Prohibits the Shipment of Liquor into Dry State.?Debated last Week. Washington, Feruary, 11.?By a vive voce vote, the house late today re * .... 4. * U 4 passed the Webb bill to prom uu mc .shipment of intoxicants into "dry" States, as it passed the senate yesterday, and thereby removed a parliamentary obstruction which threatened to delay its final passage until another session of congress. Although the parliamentary experts had thought earlier in the day that a special rule would be required to get tlie bill before the house again. Representative Clayton, of Alabama, called the measure up under a rule permitting the house to consider with? 4. o ftnv bill UUL ieicicuvc iv/ CI v,v passed by the senate which is substantially the same as one that has been reported by a house committee. Republican Leader Mann and Representative Fitzgerald made a point of order against the bill contending that it did not come within the rule hecause it was not on a house calendar. had a senate number instead of numhpr and was not sub <X uvuwv ii u.i.AA v v . _ stantially the same as tlie Webb bill as originally introduced. Speaker Clark overruled the points of order and the bill was passed without debate or division. KEBELS SHELL NATIONAL PALACE i Diaz Demands Surrender of Madero's CitadeL?Rebels Make iurther Gains During: All-Day Fi^lits 4 Mexico City, Feb. 13.?Al! through the day the rebel batteries of heavy guns were throwing a fierce fire of 9 3 ? -rwirtrtA AJonv nf .sftrapnei a,rouna me p<tiav>u. .u?uj ? . these dropped into the Zocalo, which fronts the building and the Federal soldiers were compelled to move to cover. 1 Before dark the fire on both sides Avas intermittent, but apparently less vigorous from the Federals.

Diaz Prepared. That Diaz had prepared for the move fcv the government, which Madero promised would be carried through today, was shown by the fact that he "had stationed sharpshooters on the roofs of buildings, had dispatched a to th^ west and lUi VUVUiUV V44V v?ww had placed his heaviest guns in positions commanding all approaches to Br his stronghold. Gen. Huerta commanding the Fed ? erals, had promised to rush the fortifications of the rebels but he elected instead to employ his artillery from the various points of vantage. Only once during the early part of the day did the infantry come into action. During the heavy shelling of the palace, Diaz apparently mov^d some of his forces to the southeast of the city, and shortly after 12 o'clock the palace was made the target of both J shells and rifle fire from that district. Coincidentally the Tebels succeeded in extending their zone of activity in other directions. Xany Buildings Wrecked. Thp rebel fire towards the palace was intended not only to bring about its surrender, but had for its purpose also the clearing of the intervening high buildings of machine guns and riflemen and of silencing the Federal battery operating in San Juan Letran street at a point midway between the aiseinal and the palace. This shelling wrought havoc among ih>. buildings in that section of the r. itir Tho iniPriVan PluK ridlilpd The interior of this building on the second and third floors was completely wrecked. Of forty Americans within it at the time several had almost miraculous escapes fron death. Seven shells tore through the walls. The Tirst two crashed through th-e reading room across the greater length of the front on the second story. Others tore through the walls above the second story on the sides not protected by . k buildings. Rifles and Machine Gnns also. . Tri afMitirvn nhcill firp in ferior as well as the exterior of the American Club was perforated in f scores of places by bullets from rifles ) and machine guns. The shells which entered the ivading room crashed through the stone window casings demolished a heavy leather chair and exploded with terrific force. Shrapnel -*ras hurled in all directions, cutting the furniture to ribbons, ripping th-.ioor and walls and puncturing in a f j score el plac< s lhe- portraits which i hung about the room. The portrait j most seriously damaged was tha' of i President M&dero. i I Delegates to Peace Congress.

XADERO RESIGNS. 1 | Mexico City, Feb. 14.?Affairs in | Mexico City, the theatre for almost a j week of an innovation in modern warfare when it was authoritatively j stated that President Madero had; ' agreed to resign if the Mexican senate I so wished. i The senate was called into session I at S oclock tonight to take action on . ' "* * * * * Tt 1C ViP | tniS important aiouanuu. av ? ; liev-ed the resignation of Madero is I now in the hands of the Mexican conj gress. At the Briish legation, where Sej nor de la Barra took refuge Thursi day, it is stated that Madero's resig! nation practically had been arranged i for and that de la Barra likely would succeed him in the presidency. . Later, Senor de la Barra, while proceeding through the streets in an automobile, stopped and made a brief address, assuring the crowds that a peac*? settlement was certain :u.?d j probably would be reached before morning. De la Barr . had been in consultation with the Madero and Diaz regarding a quick settlement to ! avoid intervention. Firing Ceases, j At 6 o'clock tonight General Huerta, the federal commander, gave the order to cease firing. Soon detach j ments of federals were seen marcnmg i from their positions to the govern| ment base n ar the palace, their guns | slung on their backs. The laws of Mexico make it necesi sary for the abdication of a president to be submitted to congress, and for ' this reason official announcement of j the resignation of Madero would be | considerably d-elayed, even if already | decided upon. Another development of the early j evening was the resignation of Rafael j Hernandez, as minister or tne m| terior. I Whether hostilities will be- resumed tomorrow naturally depends on the faction of the president and congress, j or upon the aggression of the rebels. In case of dilatory tactics, it is not j impossible that Diaz may decide to | force the action. He repeatedly has said that nothing short of resignation of the president woulu satisfy him?that Madoro must resign 01 he himself wo:;ld di^ fighting. Intercutof Notes, i Another interchange of notes took | place today between General Kuerta j and the rebel commander. That of ! Hu^rta was of a conciliatory charac| ter. It offered Diaz permission to reI tire in peace with his men. Diaz rej plied that he would continue to fight, j J* was the advance of the federals ctTfxpt tfariv in thp daV | Ul"?VUL XMliUVl uo vv k ^ . I 1 which. provoked the first sharp reply ! from the mutinous zone. Mowed Down WiM Shiapue!. Diaz waited until the f l>;r ils \vei*e | far down the line, tavn threw into i their ranks a hail of shrapnel j swept them with machine -run fin:. ! Few left the street alive. The government trcops -opivd ; to carry the rebel position from ; other directions, but always with the i same results; the soldiers fell undf r ' a terrific fire or were driven back to I . .. ! sneiter. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon general order to cease fighting was ' given but for the two preceding hours ! the fire from, the government liues l practically had been suspended. Gen. ! de la Vega, commanding the lines ! directly to the east of the rebel po! sition, admitted he was unable to | advance. Failure had been encountered in all quarters. It was coincidental with this .cessation of the firing that a battalion o? the Twentieth infantry revolted. All but a handful of these federals succeeded in joining Diaz.

Kificacy of Frozen {"arbouic-Acid (?as Accidental Discovery. Like many of the great discoveries in science, the method of removing ! birthmarks came about accidentally. A young man who had a very large i red birthmark on his right hand was engaged at one of the largest soda fountains in New York. His right hand was frequently in contact with ! frozen carbonic-acid gas, and he noj ticed after some months that the ! birthmark had completely disappear ed. This occurrence was brought to the attention of some of the leading skin specialists of New York, and upon experimenting by applying frozen carbonic-acid gas to birthmarks it was found that they were actually removed and that the patient suffered no pain in the process. The skin specialists say that now thof i->an cmnrantpp to onre even the *** W C) ~ - most unsightly of tbese birthmarks by this process, which is explained upon excellent physiolgical grounds. It has long been known that a birthmark is only a defect in the topmost outer layer of the skin. At! tempts to remove them by burning | with acid, or mechanically failed | because, while the birthmark was rej moved, an uglier scar resulted from I the deep burn of acid or fire. Frozen carbonic-acid gas actually i burns away the birthmark, but the value of this agent as compared with others is That it does not burn into the other layers of the skin?it merely j removes the defective top layer, allowing it to renew itself normally after the removal. 1 -n*rrr?roit \PTORRY & LACK ENS B.
