A NE RICAN WILL
SEEK TREASURE
OF AzTECS
Applies TO Mexican Govern
ment for Permission to Hunt
Gems of Ancient Emperors,

san Antonio, Toy, April 1G.-f. \.
Kenyon. IN American. has applied to
the Mexican government for ncrmis-
sion to hunt for the treasures of the
Aztec empcrors, the whereabouts of
which he claims to have discovered
through an Aztec codeX in his posses
sion. In this document, which is
claimed to deal exclusively with the
hidden wealth. there is reference to
pots of pure gold, solid gold chains,
the diadems Of the M-ontezumas ana 4
ta%bulously rich necklace Of gold and
precious chalchiuhuitcs-the rarest of
gems. According to MIR. Kenyon thor
hiding place is also indicated, being
n of the many caves in the vicinity
of TeXcoco.
So far the Mexican government has
taken no action IN the matter, Lie.
Sierra. the secretary of public in
struction. has advised Ing. Leopoldo
Batres, inspector of archaeological ar
fairs, to take the ease under consider

Mr.. Kenyon had n conference at San

which have us yet not neen published.
In the meantime the Aztec cOdeX in

HOW CANNON PLANS
To GET EVEN WITH
INSURGENTS
Of Uncle Joseph Said

Washington, u. c., April l6,
While the insurgents of the house
are making compacts with the demo-
Gratis to gust Joseph q. Cannon from
the speakership, Mr.. Cannon is doing
all he Fan to hasten such action, be-
cause he believes that 1t would be his
revenge and bring discrodit upon the
insurgents.
This remarkable story OF the speak
er's effort to avenge himself for the
treatment he has received from tho in
surgents comes from one of his
closest personal friends and most
trusted political advisers.
Never in the history of the country
has there been such II situation. Here
is the dramatic spectacle of "a great
politician with the mines under his
feet struggling to compel the men
who have arranged for his annihila-
ton tn do their work quickly his
motive, as described by his friends. is
10 ruin the insurgents in the coming
congressional campaign ana to lemon
strltc that his method OF doing hus-
mess has been the correct n in the
house.
According to this description of cam
mons frame of mind, he would like
the insurgents ana democrats to vote
him out of the ~spcakcrship immodt-
utcly. n this were done, he thinks.
the house would be thrown into chaos.
the election OF a speaker would be "a
matter of weeks or even months, and
the legislative program Of the presi-
dent would be threatened with disas-
ter If it were not really destroyed.
IT was pointed on today that the
speeches tho speaker has made prod
ding and irritating ana defyiug the
insurgents viii De followed by other
speeches of a similar character. and
that Mr.. Cannon viii bait his foes to
race toward what ne believes win
prove their destruction In greater de-
gree than his.
When hc was d%iscreditcd 10y the
house in the adoption of the Norris
resolution removing him from the
committee IN rules, he wanted 10 re-
sign the spcakcrship thcn and there,
and it was only the work of former
Congressman james Watson. of ludi-
ana, which persuaded hin 20 keep
the chair. lie realizes that his resig-
nation would be politically unWise.
hut he would be pleased to have him
self ousted and then sit around and
watch Rome howl.
So far as the insurgents are con-
cerned. they have been making u pre-
liminary move toward removing Mr.. /
Cannon from the speakcrship just at
the close OF congress. after the neccs-
sary legislation has been adopted. ON
the other hand. many democrats are
particularly enthusiastic about
removing Cannonism ag a campaign

survey to show definitely the location

solid. substantial development of agri-
culture in the region should be based
upon 4 fundamental knowledge of the

The first step in acquiring such a
knowledge is to ascertain the kind OF
