Berlin, Sept. 1.-The recent break
in the prices of American securities
is having disastrous consequences on
number of German brokers. Last
night George Weichert, the proprie-
tor of a brokerage firm, was found
drowned in a lake near Berlin. He
is said to have been made bankrupt
through the drop in Canadian Pacific
railway shares.
Another broker, Paul Dehnicke,
died suddenly yesterday and it is re-
ported that he committed suicide be-
cause of losses through heavy en-
gagements Of American, securities on
the London market. Paul Kwiet and
Martin Cans of the private banking
house of Kwiet and Cans, who were
arrested August 29, charged with en-
bezzlement of $500,000 of the banks
deposits, were examined in court to-
day. They testified that their disas-
Ger was due to the American slump in
prices. At Hamburg a broker named
Ernest Friedlander fled yesterday,
being unable to meet his engagements
on the London and New York ex-
changes. Another small Berlin firm

SUARES is NOT SO Confident
VIGOROUS ATTACKS ARE MADE
ON HIM AND COOL HIS
ASPIRATIONS.
GOMEZ MAY BE NOMINATED
DECISION NOT EXPECTED TO BE
REACHED BEFORE LATE THIS
AFTERNOON.

Mexico City, Sept 1.-When the
hackers of the candidacy of Jose Pine
Suarez for the vice presidency of
Mexico entered the progressive con-
vention this morning their faces did
not betray the same confidence which
has characterized them until now.
The vigorous attacks made on the
candidacy OF the Yucatan leader last
night have lowered his stock consid-
erably and those claiming to have in
side knowledge of the temper of the
delegates are inclined to believe that
he will have difficulty in defeating
Alfrado Robles Dominguez
A few timorous ones also are be-
ginning to fear Dr. Francisco vasquez
Gomez, notwithstanding the fact that
he is the chief of the anti-re-election-
lists, whose party rejected the candi-
dacy of Madero and nominated Emilio
Vasquez Gomez for the presidency.
1t was expected that the convention
would vote on the vice presidential
candidate before noon and thus de-
eide guesses on the successful one.
Sanchez Azcona personally a parti-
san of Suarez, is credited this morn
ing by many political observers with
having acted cleverly last night in
availing himself of his right as chair
man arbitrarily to adjourn the con-
vention. Since then the leaders of
the four political factions have
worked hard and the strain of their
overnight efforts showed on them
today.
The attacks of the opposition on
the methods employed by the hackers
of Suarez have had noticeable ef-
feet. Although they were unable to
prove that the central committee had
overstepped the bounds of political
ethics in supporting that candidate,
charges to that effect have resulted
in the open suspicion on the part of
many of the delegates whose votes
Suarez's hackers had considered safe.
Quibbling over the number of votes
to which each delegate should be en-
titled in the nomination of vice
president resulted in calling the roll
for the purpose of checking it, This
consumed the entire forenoon and the
session will not be concluded until
late this afternoon.

Plans for the Utah extension of the

has been investigating the possibili-
ties of such road in the Uintah ba-
sin on behalf of the foreign syndicate
which, it is said, will furnish the need
ed money. According to Brind the
Uintah railway will be part of the
new line, the directors having decid
ed to tunnel the Book Cliffs next
spring at cost of $1,25O,0O eliminat
ing the present heavy grades and to
extend the road to the Colorado-Ut

WILL THRESH OUT
CEMETERY EMBROGLIO
CATHOLIC PEOPLE OF LAS VEGAS
TO MEET AT COURT HOUSE
TONIGHT

This evening in the court house
there will be held another meeting
of the Catholic people of Las Vegas
for the purpose of taking some action
in regard to the management of Mount
Calvary cemetery. The committee
appointed to confer with Rev. Father
Paul Gilberton reported some time
ago that il had been informed by him
the cemetery is property of the arch
bishop of Santa Fe and nothing could
be done without comforting with him.
Some of the people interested in the
controversy assert they learned later
that the cemetery property is not in
the name OF the archbishop.
The desire of the Catholics who
have been holding the meetings is, ac-
cording to their statement, to ap-
point board of trustees or directors
to manage the affairs of Mount Cal
vary, which have been directed solely
by Father Gilberton for some time.
There is said to be much dissatisfac-
ton because of the neglected condi-
ton of the cemetery, the people claim
ing that the grounds are not as well
cared for as they might be although
there should be sufficient money on
hand to make much better showing.

URGES TEACHERS TO
ATTEND LECTURES
DR.. DES MARAIS APPRECIATES
VALUE OF HEALTH TALKS
BY DOCTORS

DIR. NJ. F. Des Marais, county super
intendent of schools, is endeavoring
to arouse the interest of all the teach
ers in the county in the lectures and
papers on tuberculosis which will be
given during the meeting of the New
Mexico Medical society here next
week. The lectures and discussions
will occur in the Commercial club next
Friday morning at 8 O'Clock and DR..
Des Marais is hopeful of meeting there
a large percentage of the teachers Of
both the city and county schools.
In such a community as this, where
there are many healthseekers, it is
especially necessary that the people
learn 10 exercise caution against the
spreading of the disease. It has been
found by past experience that an effec-
tive way of disseminating such know
eldge is through the school children,
who carry home with them such things
as they learn at school and thus are
instrumental in the education of their
parents. BY listening to the lectures
and papers the teachers will learn
much of value which they can give
to the children under their care.

CALIFORNIA HAS AN

STATUTE ABOLiSHES CoNTRIBU-

LOW SERVANT DEFENsEs.

San Francisco, Sept. Ia new en-
ployer's liability law, abolishing the
contributory negligence and fellow
servant defenses in actions for dam
ages brought by injured employees,
went into effect in California today.
The law, which was a part of the re-
form program of the last legislature,
provides fixed compensation for in
jured workmen, benefits to widows
and orphans and medical and surgi-
cal attention. The amount of COM
pensation is to be regulated by an in
dustrial accident board of three mem
bers appointed by the governor. The
employer is held liable for any injury
sustained by an employe in the per-
formance of his duty.
