San Antonio, Tex, March 20.-
Believing that Mexican Finance Min
ister Limanhour bears with him an
American ultimatum on which the
invasion of Mexico depends, army
commanders here today are eagerly
awaiting for the result of Liman-
tours conference with President
Diaz and Madero's lientenants In
Mexico City.
Believing that Intervention in the
Mexican trouble is certain, unless
Washington demands, as voiced by
Limantour, are granted, army officers
today are continuing their plans for
invasion. 1t is pointed out that the
mobilization of our marines and
transports at Guantanamo is proof
that Vera Cruz has been selected as
the initial point Of attack
In line with this view is the fact
that Galveston coast artillerymen are
being drilled for field duty. Further
evidence that quick move to Mex
leo is believed probable is seen in the
fact that train of 13 Pullmans and
SO stock cars, with the whole pontoon
equipment of the army are in readi-
ness for instant use. The train is
being held on clear track, so that
1t may run out of the yards here lon
a moments notice.

tained, the report that President
Taft and his cabinet were to meet to-
night to discuss important new de.
velopments in the Mexican situation
was generally credited here today.
Taft arrived at noon from Atlanta
and cabinet members who have beef
out of town have returned. The pres
ident is said to be greatly worried
over indications that an unfriendl.
congress probably will demand al
investigation Of the cause of tn
mobilization.
Telegraphic advices from seno
Limantour, recently arrived in Mex
co City are said to have been tn
immediate cause of the summonin
of the cabinet.

judges and the awardment of premi-
ums. The second day will also start
off with a parade and the afternoon
be devoted to the awarding of pre-
miums and on the afternoon Of both
days there will be conducted a mon
ster horse sale. This sale was a
winning feature last year-so win
ming that the demand was so great
for it again that the association de-
cided to make 1t part of the show
this year. Any owner Of stock who
desires to sell may enter his stock
with the managers of the sale.
Much Interest Aroused.
Since the announcement was made
some time ago that the association
would hold another show this spring,
the secretary, Charles Yannke, has
been buried with correspondence
from horsemen making inquiries in
regard to the show. All of them sig
nifty the keenest interest in the ex-
hibition and that the greater portion
of them will bring their horses to
the show goes without the saying.
At meeting held by the associa'
tion several evenings ago committees
were appointed to make arrange
ments for the holding of the show
and also to solicit funds. The fin
ance committee is making fine pro
gres and it hopes within a shor
time to have the amount necessary t
hold the show fully subscribed.

Mayor Fawcett introduced reso-
luton declaring the office Of city
clerk to be vacant. After a plea for
Cushman by Commissioner Roys. the
resolution passed.
One Of the methods said 10 have
been employed by the persons re-
sponsible for the alleged irergulari-
ties was to change the residences ad-
dress Of signers on the petitions OF
Commissioners Owen Woods and l..
w. Roys, so that checking process
would show that they were not resi-
dents OF the ward in which they
claimed to reside. Such names were
thrown out. Evidence was also ad-
duced, according to the investigating
committee, to show that the petitions
in many cases had been fastened to-
gether without reference TO whether
the list tackled onto any individual
petition was tie right one or not.
Because of this alleged crooked work
1t is believed that when the checking
of the petitions is completed tonight
1t will be fouT that the blanks Of
Commissioners Roys and Woods are
short of the required number of sdgn-
ers. Inthat event 1t Is likely that
the petitions will lagain be circulated
until sufficient names have been se-
cured to warrant the calling Of a spe-
cial election.
The alleged Irregularities are said
to have occurred while the petitions
were in the custody Of City Clerk
Cushman, and the city council
charged that he took no action to
safeguard the documents.

CLAUDE TRIED
To DECEIVE
THE OFFICER
HE ALSO SWIPED A BALL GLOVE
AND BUTTED INTO THE KIDS
BALL GAME, BUT HE WON'T
DO EITHER AGAIN FOR 80
DAYS.

Claud Sinner is 25 years old, and
this morning became the guest Of
Marion county, at the invitation Of
City Recorder Elgin, acting in the ca
pacity of a justice of the peace.
Claude will be 80 days older than he
Is now when he takes his feet from
under the county's table, so to speak,
and again takes up the struggle with
the problem Of the high cost of liv-
ing, without county assistance. Sat-
urday afternoon Claude saw a num-
ber of the future big men of Salem,
but now only from '12 TO IA years
old, engaged IN game of "catch." "
Claude was lonesome, and his
thoughts carried him back over the
few but weary years when he was a
kidlet, as free from care as the va
grant breezes of spring, or anything
else in that class. He asked permis-
sion to join in the game, which the
kids at once granted, having the
true Salem spirit about giving the
stranger a chance. In the course of
the play, Claudes hands being ten
der, presumably from hand-blistering
work, was loaned a ball glove 1t is
unnecessary to 90 into the vicissi-
tudes of tn egame-that part of II
being immaterial-but at its end
Claude retained possession Of the
glove, and refused to deliver 1t to mis-
playfellows. Possession being nine
points in the law, and Claude being
too big for them to tackle, one OF
them, John Bayne, probably lee
thereto by the name, referred the
matter to the law, in the person ot
officer Burkhardt, who at once inter
viewed Claude, and demanded the
glove. Claude denied having it, bu
a search of his lodging brought 1t t.
light, and the charge of larceny wa
lodged against him, while he wa
lodged in Jail. This morning Claude
pleaded guilty and was given 80 day
as aforesaid. 1t seems like a loni
time to serve for so small thing a
glove, but, as the poet says:
Think nanght trifle though 1t small
appear.
Sands make the mountains, moment
make the year,
And trifles life"
Judge Elgin, in passing sentence
said he would be more lenient, ha
o it not been that Claude tried to dc
, ceive Oficer Burkhardt Swiping tn
glove was a minor matter, but sal

Are Forbidden on Salvation
Army's Colony.

"Drunkard's Island" is the name by
which the Salvation Army's latest col
any for inebriates, off the coast OF
New Zealand, is known to passing
mariners. It's real name Is Pakatoa
The Salvation Army has recently
completed plans for isolating confirm
ed drunkards on couple of islands,
one for men and one for women.
Only one island is available at pres
ent, but the success of this settlement
has been such that the New Zealand
government and the Salvation Army
may acquire another for women.
The only communication with the
mainland Is by the Salvation Army
motor boat, and the residents have
no opportunity of reaching a public
house.
All spirits and alcohol in any form
are forbidden on Pakatoa, and the
colonists lead the simple life on fruit
diet, without drugs or policemen.
The New Zealand government re-

MIGRANTS INSURANCE PLAN
Bill Provides That State Shall Act
as the Custodian Of
the Funds.

Madson.-Speaker Ingram has in
Produced a bill providing for a sys-
tenn of life insurance under the au-
spices of the state which differs from
that contemplated in the Joint reso-
luton recently introduced at the in
stance Of Insurance Commissioner
Ekern in that the state assumes no
responsibility for payments, but sim
ply acts as custodian OF the fund,
reducing the expense by using the
state, county and town officials.
In addition to life insurance the
Ingram bill will provide for life an
nuities for persons over the age of
Go years. The cost of these annu-
tiles will be so reduced as to make it
easy for persons to carry them and
will, it is claimed, meet the demand
for old age pensions and other pa
ternalistic legislation that is sweep
Ing over the country.
The Ingram bill provides that
there shall be established a "life
fund to be administered by the state
without liability on the part of the
state beyond the amount of the
fund" The state treasurer is made
ex-of1icio treasurer and custodian of
the fund. All matters in connection
thereto are to be under the super
vision of the commissioner of insur-
ance. Each must give such bond as
may be required By the governor and
secretary of state.
