"Messrs. Delegates: Interpreting the
sentiments of the people and govern
ment of this republic. which has dis
tinguished me with the Office of its
President, have the honor in its name
of offering to you this banquet as one
of the demonstrations whereby 1t
desires to signify to its
sister republics, which you
SO worthily represent at the
the international American conference,
its deep gratitude for the will with
which all accepted its invitation, as
we'll as the friendliness, respect and
merited esteem with which 1t has re-
ceived their delegates. In the same
capacity l express the hope that the
conclusion of our high deliberations
may be to such a degree fruitful in
benefits for the peoples of this conti-
nent that their future relations may
ever be governed by the upright spirit
which animated Washington, Hidalgo
Bolivar and San Martin in the most
momentous and characteristic episodes
of their heroic public careers.
Gentlemen, in concluding, j beg to
invite YOU to drink with me that the
hopes which I have just expressed in
the name of my compatriots, and
which are the same as those that you
harbor in your generous souls, but
which hitherto have not passed beyond
good DESIRE may become realities,
binding together in intimate union the
young nations which have sent you
hither and which expect and have a
right to expect much from your wis
dom and discreet patriotism. l hope,
too, that nothing may interrupt the
increasing prosperity of your nations
and the just reward of their manly
and intelligent efforts. And, finally,
drink for the perpetual felicity of
your worthy presidents and express my
desire that your stay in Mexico may
be as agreeable to you as it will be
to me-"
President Raisosa Responds.
Response was made by Gonaro Raj
gosa, provisional president of the Con-
gress, who said In part:
You are right. Mr.. President, in con-
IDENTIFY hoping that the results of the
deliberations of this great continental
assembly will be fruitful in benefits to
the nations which unanimously accept
ed your invitation, for on the one hand
the wisdom, enlightenment and patri-
| otism of their delegates warrant such
an expectation and on the other the
| medium in which those deliberations
are being held is as propitious as could
be desired in order, while encouraging
perfect tranquility of mind, to enforce
the conviction that the people and gov
ernment Of Mexico. being at peace with
all the nations of the new and old
world, have no other aim than to con-
tribute to the consolidation of sover-
eighty of each one within it's territor-
ial limits and to promote the free and
progressive development of Democratic
institutions in America on the footing
of most ample recognition of one an
others rights"

Because of Negroes.
Indianapolis. Oct. 29.-Fifty seven
white men employed as core makers at
the National Malleable Casting Com
pany's plant at Haughville, a suburb
are on strike because their demand that
the negro employees of the same de-

is only a question of few days until
the whole plant, which employs about
1,200 men, will be obliged to close down.
Race prejudice is increasing all over
the suburb. A strong detail of police is
maintained at Sll hours to prevent an
outbreak.
The company officials say they will
close down rather than grant the de-
mands. The trouble arose from the
murder of white man by a negro in
the vicinity last Saturday night.
