ASKS RETRACTION
FROM GUATEMALA
State Department Holds Err
roneouS Statements Hurt
MoiSant Bank.

The State Department has presented
to the Guatemalan government a de-
mand for the retracion of a misleading
and incorrect statement IN the Diario
Ohcial concerning the condition Of the
Moisant Bank, an institution controlled
by the brothers of that name Of san
Francisco. When the statement was
published the hank suffered by the with
drawal of deposits and impaired credit
Under directions from the state
Department an examination Of the
books was made and 1t was found that
the government allegations were untrue.
Representation was made TO the minis
ter OF foreign affairs, but he declined to
make a FetTacti0n. The charge DAT
flares therefore been instructed to
demand of the government that a cor
rection be made as conspicuous as the
original misstatement.
The department is also pressing a
claim of the Moisant Brothers against
the government Of Honduras. This arose
from a proposition made by the govern
ment to Moisant a short time ago to
establish a national bank. The govern
ment agreed 70 submit the plans to the
legislature for ratification. In the mean
time Moisant spend many thousands OF
NoA4dis III having Aiss ulldc ana PRINT
Ing notes, and in making other arrange
mentss and when his plans were COM
pleted the government refused to abide
by the agreement The State Depart
ment has. therefore, demanded that the
agreement be carried out or that Mol
SAINT be reimbursed for bis losses.
The affairs OF the Moisant family,
which is prominent in the Central
American countries, are COMPLICATED
largely by the activities of a Younger
brother, Johnny Moisant, who is d pro-
fessional revolutionlst and soldier of for
tune. he was prominently Identified
with the filibustering expedition organ

IN-AND-OUT JOCKEY
IS BEING WATCHED
Performances of New York Rider
Attract Attention-Employer
Is Poolroom Backer.

NEW YORK. Nov. There is a
Jockey now riding horses on the local
tracks who has the racegoers by the
ears.
His work IS a variation Of skill and
blunders. Some days he pilots his
mounts brilliantly: at other times he
makes more mistakes than an amateur.
His work calls forth alternately praise
and censure. But lately his critics have
stopped lauding his horsemanship. IN
steady they point 10 the fact that one Of
his employers is the reputed owner and
hacker of poOlrOoms.
It is pointed out that many Of the
horses on which this jockey has had the
leg up in the past have been top-heavy
favorites, and that they have been
beaten through the bunglinE work OF
the rider. This Ecandslous talk has be-
come so general that casual racing pa
irons criticise his work freely. IT IS
things Ike this that harm racing.

As her husband wrapped q ragged ana
worn shawl about her bony shoulders
h clasped his grimy hand and tried
to smile reasuringly up into his face.
Supporting her in his arms. and half
carrying the blind old woman. the lit
tie children clinging about their
mothers skirts, the old man limped
painfully toward the open door.
On the threshold he paused to look
back at the miserable hove, that for
years had been his home. When the
icy win struck her the woman in his
arms was seized with q fit OF coughing
that seemed to rack her frail form be-
You'd human endurance. She threw her
arms about the old mans neck.
I'm choking" she gasped, choking"
And the words died away in a hoarso
~rattele in her throat. A convulsive
tremor passed over her flesh; her arms
relaxed. h man fell upon his knees
and bowed his head and wept, holding
In his arms the dead body of his wife.
It seemed to Bullion that 1t was his
w body pierced by the Icy wind, his
own heart rung by the dying woman's
cry. He awoke with a start to find
himself sitting alone In the familiar
office. There was the warm fire. to be
sure; 1t was late and he knew that his
brougham must be waiting at the door
to take him home to a cheerful. sump-
tnous house and a smoking dinner.
With a pang OF self-reproach he,
jumped to his feet and pressed the cleo
trio button on his desk. The secretary
entered again.
Call back those gentlemen. Don't
waste a minute. / have reconsidered
my hasty decision. These crimes In
the mining region must cease immedi-
ately. Such a state Of things is a dis
grace to a Christian community
The astonished subordinate bolted
from the room and Bullion was left
alone. A kindly light that seemed to
emanate from the spirit within lit up
his face; for he first time in years he
felt the sense Of spiritual beatitude
bred only of benevolent deeds.
From the street, came the rumble OF
traffic; to Billions ear it had lost its
note. To his fancy it rose like
anthem sounding his praise from the
threats of the millions of the down
rodden.
