Mexico willing to Cooperate With

New York. May l3.--In the course
of lengthy Interview in the city OF
Mexico, published in the Herald here
today. President Diaz gave a statement
OF the feeling of Mexico toward Qua
te'nala and his ideas for remedying the
condition prevailing in some OF the
Central American republics
Mexico" he said has throughout
all this trouble with Guatemala which
came so near forcing us to war. main
tanned the attitude of friendly pow
er. That attitude is still maintained.
We do not want TO shed blood to show
the Guatemalan government the error
OF their ways and viii not resort to
that extreme measure unless some
overt act or insult be committed which
will demand the infection by Mexico
of sharp punishment.
If it becomes necessary 10 have
war, we will make it a very brief one.
MeXico's present wonderful develop
ment and progress must not be hind
cred by long drawn out conflict. The
blow, If struck will be hard and quick"
President Diaz then reviewed the
events leading up TO the present diff
ferences with Guatemala down to the
withdrawal of the Mexican minister,
Not" he said. with the idea of sew
ering diplomatic relations. but to get
him out of the way of receiving any
Insult from that government which
would compel Mexico to administer
deserved punishment by the use OF
arms. There the matter rests for the
time. That is why there is no war.
1t is only a temporary condition, how
ever"
Continuing, President Diaz made this
important announcement:

their salvation must be settled sooner

Presently Mayhem spoke again.

CLOSE to Stannithorpe, my native
place." Mr.. Basing answered, gloomily.
But Mayhem remembered that his COM
panlon was chief proprietor of the old
bank at Stannithorpe, and, thinking his
revenge had gone far enough, he re-
solved to bring the car to a stand at
the bank door.
Past few struggling houses they

excited clamorous, surging about a big
stone building, whose front bore in
large gilt letters the words, "Basing's
old bank"
'There's something wrong" Mr..
Baslng cried, as soon as he saw the
crowd. IF you could only manage to
pull up you might do me great SER
vice"
Mayhem nodded, and after another
we'll simulated struggle with the levers
contrived to bring the car that wouldn't
stop-of its own accord-to stand as
close to the bank as the crowd would
permit.
Mr. Basing sprang to the ground
and almost into the arms of vener-
able, but wildly excited, gentleman,
who was fiourishing a sheaf Of tele-
grams.
THANK goodness you've come, sir!
he cried, breathlessly. I've wired your
office n dozen times this morning and
got no answer from you or Mr.. Smart.
Your chief clerk telegraphed that
neither Of you was at business and he
could do nothing"
TEL me In word what's the mat
ter?" he asked.
"A run. sir, on the bank, sir, started,
goodness knows why, as soon as the
doors opened. Mr.. Jones thinks it's
some silly twaddle In the local papers
has done it. But he can't keep on
paying out more than another half hour,
and he's In an awful state Of mind"
Mr.. Baslng shouldered his way
through the crowd to the door. which
was guarded by the entire police force
of the town, and faced the people.
"Fellow townsmen I" Basing shouted.
II am here to tell you that the banks
In no danger. You will be paid to the
utmost farthing."
A hundred angry yells answered the
assurance.
Mr. Baslng pushed past the police
men and entered the bank.

Mr.. Basing, by way of greeting.
"Twnty-five thousand" was the an
swer.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
A Motor Gar EIopement
rseeeeeseeeseesesseessssT

81 T was not nice thing to do, but
Mr.. Baslng, of Basing's old bank,
Stannithorpe, head Of the London
financial firm of Basing & Smart, doubt
less thought he was justified, and. In
deed, he had never been prescriptions.
So when his only daughter, In extricat-
ing a handkerchief from the ridiculous
little bag which served her as a pocket,
unwittingly drew forth an important
letter, which, unpercelved by her, fiut-
tered to the carpet, he promptly placed
his foot upon 1t.
"It's not a bit of use pleading for
him." he said. you don't marry that
idle spendthrift II can help it."
Frank Mayhem Is not that" she re-
piled. "You are always saying he can't
do anything, but he can drive a motor
car better than anybody know; he
plays football, cricket and golf splen-
didly, and"
Mr.. Baslng interrupted with a snort.
"Piays; that's just 1t. Your husband
must know how to work.
The girl left the room without an
other word.
Mr.. Basing smiled grimly and picked
ND the letter, which he had no scruple
about reading. 1t was written In a
bold hand and ran as follows:
"My Darling Bessie have got the
license, also your travelling trunk and
dressing case-thanks to the porter.
At o O'Clock sharp I'll be at the corner
of Dean road with the new car and
the baggage. I have fixed up every
thing. Well reach Northleigh by 10
and be married by half-past. Yours
ever, FRANK"
Mr.. Baslng thought moment, made
up his mind with his usual decision,
and looked at his watch. 1t was 8 AS.
He could get to the corner of Dean
road In ten minutes
The car was there, a big twenty
horsepower, moving slowly. Mayhem
