(By Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-Sterling Bir-
mingham, the dismissed loan clerk OF
the Windsor Trust company, said to-
day, through his counsel, that he was
tired of being made the goat.
An investigation was what he would
most welcome he said, as 1T would give
him the chance to show that through
out his connection with the loan office
he had acted under orders from his
superiors.
The grand jury is anxious to deter
mine this point, as it was on the affi-
davit of President Young that Birming-
ham was today arraigned in police
court, charged with a misdemeanor in
accepting $3.50 as fee for his services
in pushing the loan through.
Three other men who are under in
dictment appeared before Judge Null
queen today-Charles Katz, president
of the Eastern Brewing company; A.
D. S. Adams of Boston and Walter l..
Clark, a note broker.
In Clark's case the records of the
court of general sessions. which show
that he has been previously indicted for
forgery and has done time in Elmira
were produced before the grand jury.
Adams bail was set at $4,000 more
than he could find, and he was sent to
the Tombs. Katz had to furnish $25,000
and Clarks bail Of $4,000 was continued
at request of counsel. Pleading in all
three cases was postponed to next Tues
day. The present attitude of the dis
trict attorneys Office is that nothing
criminal has been proved against the
trust company or it's officers.

do, he replied that he did.
George Dixon, son of DR.. George A.
Dixon of New York, one of Harriman's
family physicians, is a school chum of
Averill Hartman, and he decided to
join the chain gang.
Both boys were put in positions at

PITTSBURG, Aug. 20-Five hundred
women took hand today in the agita-.

Car company's strike. After throwing
paving stones at the company's prop

eating ducked under chairs, tables and
lunch counters, when bricks and stones
came flying through the window.
The clerks could not be persuaded to

hammer some OF them on the heads

change visits with President Diaz of
Mexico at FL Paso and Juarez.
Senior De La Barra. the Mexican
ambassador personally conveyed a mes
sage from President Diaz to President
Taft. Mr.. Taft is looking forward with
keen delight to his meeting with Presi-
dent Diaz. He expressed last winter
desire for a personal interview with
the man who for so long has been at
the head of affairs in the southern re-
public and the meeting was arranged
for on the occasion of the presidents
trip to the south.
President Diaz first will visit Mr..
Taft in FL Paso. Then the president,
crossing the bridge over the Rio

quaint Mexican village of Ciudad
Juarez. United States troops will be
gathered at Ell Paso and Mexican
troops at Ciudad Juarez.

President Taft had brief talk with
Attorney General Wickersham this
afternoon, but put off until tomorrow
the serious consideration of the out
line of proposed changes in the inter
state commerce and antitrust law
which Mr.. Wickersham has been con-
sidering.
After wrestling with "Col. Bogey"
all morning on the golf links of the
Myopia club President Taft this after
noon tackled the more serious work of
discussing with Attorney General
Wickersham the problem of more
centralized control of interstate cor
porations.
The changes in the Sherman anti
trust law, in the jurisdiction OF the
interstate commerce commission, and
in the scope of authority vested in the
bureau of corporations, department of
commerce and labor, will form the bulk
of President Taft's first message to a
regular session of congress in December

ence of the Unitel States and Mexico

HARRIMAN'S CONDITION IS
REPORTED MUCH IMPROVED

PARIS, Aug. 20.-Despite many
from this side about the physical con-
dition of e. H. Hartman, it is now
stated by the highest authority that
Mr. Harrimans condition is by no
means critical.
His physicians think his "after cure"
on shipboard and at his country home
will restore him to better health than
he enjoyed before he left America.
The "cure' at Bad Gastein is most
enervating. and it is an invariable rule
to send patients of advanced years to
some quiet mountain resort to take
what is known as an "after-cure."
Mr.. Harrlman's active temperament
made it impossible for him to settle
down to the hum-drum existence, and
his physicians thought 1t best to let
him have his way and go home.
