WHERE The SHOE PlNcHEs.

Speaking before congressional com
mittee Arthur c. Hastings. president
OF the American Paper and Puly asso-
citation, paid his respect To the news
papers. Their activities in public
commercially matters he considers
pernicious. He believes they "exer-
else an evil influence"
The suspicious that might naturally
be aroused that Mr. Hastings had felt
the effect of little publicity were
confirmed when he went ON to give
his testimony before the committee.
As mead of the association he had
frequently felt called upon for in
stance, to advise the individual own
ers of paper mills to hold down pro-
duction and keep UP prices. This, he
FASTENED To explain, was not an order.
II was not an effort to prevent the
natural effects of competition. II
was simply q suggestion. He could
not recall, however, an instance in
which his advice had been disregardcd.
Naturally M. Hastings has found
the newspaper influence evil. Why.
the press has even had the impudence
to lay bare some OF the facts con-
corning the paper trust and it Is
largely due to this publicity that the
present investigation is on If the
newspapers would only let public
commercial matters alone the pub
lie would have no knowledge that
there was any trust operating i'm the
pulp business or that it controlled
prices and output and stided compcti-
ton. The same is true of many other
lines of business as well. Newspaper

OFFICIALS SAY
NOTHING ABOUT 1T

WASHINGTON, March s.--Exact-
~ as il war had been declared, the
army of the United States is actually
moving at top speed toward the Mex
lean frontier.
After thirty-siX hours preparation
the great fighting machine got under
way at about noon to-day. Tele-
graphic reports from posts all over
the country informed the War De
partment this afternoon that the
troops were starting or were already
on their way. In the Navy Depart
ment and the Marine Corps the same
situation existed.
General Wood, chief of staff, fatty
refused any explanation. President
Taft declined to be questioned. The
fact that the official explanation that
the movement was merely a practice
manenVer was generally disbelieved,
brought forth no comment from the
government. Only very few men.
including the cabinet and one or two
of the highest Officers of the army
and navy, know the real purpose of
the administration.

NEW YORK, March S.--While

industrial. development of Mexico. said
Henry Lane Wilson, the United States
ambassador, here to-day, on leave

the diplomat could not discuss the

freely about American interests in
Mexico.

dictate. Their chief lines of endeavor
are in railways, plantations and mines.

OUT STATEMENT
AUTHOR OF RESOLUTION EN-
POSING ARNY's UNPREPAK-
EDNESS GLAD TO SEE
TEST

WASHINGTON March S.-As the
author OF the famous resolution which
called forth the report on the armys
unpreparedness suppressed by Presi-
dent TAFT, Representative James Ne
Lachlan, of California, is declared by
war department officials, to be re-
sponsible, through his criticism of the
army for the present giant maneuvers.
He prepared the following statement
to-day for the United Press:
by Representative James McLachian.
While ] regret that these maneu-
vers are not to be held on the Paci-
nc coast, which, in the difficulties of
transportation Tor men, equipment
and supplies, would have been a
much more severe test for the or
ganis& stion of our military forces,
and one much more liable to occur,
Yet. the mobilization of practically
our entire mobile force on the Mext-
can border. In a measure Is IA fair
test of the efficiency os our staff de-
partments.
] have at different times pointed out
that the intervening desert between
the Rocky mountain and the Pacific
| slope constitutes a great national
menace in case of an attempted in
vasion of the Pacific coast, preventing,
as Ii would, the speedy mobilization
of troops and supplies.
In Il mobilization on the Mexican
| frontier such difficulties of transport
tation as would he met with on the
Pacific coast win not he encountered.
1t is to be greatly regretted then
that the defense of the Pacific coast
could not have been made the problem
OF this maneuver. However. | can
| not lind words to express my graft

| have decided to put the present ma
| chinery of our war esta biishment -
a real test,
III this, in fact is an answer to my
criticisms of the organization Of the
| army, ] will accept the result with
out prejudice. My heart is with the
army. This Is the Very. training that
] have always advocated.
We have stripped our entire nation
! OF its mobile forces to place Il sin
I gle division on the Mexican border.
| Our military esta blishment is strain
ed to es:arsx this feat Through to a
successful issue.
This. in itself. carries a lesson 1t
| Is my sincere hope that at the con-
| clusion OF this naneuver the military
authorities Will frankly make public

After holding fairly steady during

nounced. The stock fell / 3-S, Read

The stock market became nervous
to-day because of the various inter-
pretations placed upon the movement
of troops toward the Mexican border.
There was much interest in national
railways OF Mexico issues. but there
was little trading in them. Second

others were unchanged.
The rally after the decline on the

came heavy.
In the afternoon extreme dizziness
prevailed with price movements con-
firmed within narrow limits.

day regarding certain reports of haz-

ries. printer in another afsernoon
newspaper and displayed wildly, were
taken seriously by many unfamiliar
with undergraduate life.
The faculty laughed over the mat

graduate body began to look upon the
matter in serious light and the sto-
ries about the clash between fresh
men and sophonores threatened to
disturb the good feeling between the
classes, the college authorities decid-
ed that 1t was tii..e to stop the pro-
ceedings.
The ambitious young author of the
stories was told that he must give
up his journalistic work or leave the
