ORDERS WARSHIPS
TO SHUN MEXICO
Torpedo Boats to Head Off Gunboat
YorktoWn-Consider d Visit
UnWse.

Washington, May While the
war department is busy denying that
the two torpedo boat destroyers
Preble and Perry are bound for Mex
leo under sealed orders there are per-
sistent rumors here that other coun'
tries may take the initiative.
Information was received at the
state department to the effect that a
British warship will be ordered to
Mexico. A rumor also reached the de-
partment that a French cruiser will
put in an appearance at one of the
gulf ports of Mexico very soon.
The war department explained that
the Preble and Perry, which slipped
out of San Diego harbor Sunday night,
are under orders to intercept the gun
boat Yorktown by wireless and tell it
not 70 stop at any Mexican port for
coal
In view of conditions prevailing in
Mexico it is deemed inadvisable to
have an American gunboat drop in at
any Of the coastal cities.
The Yorktown is en- route to San
Dl6SO lTOu Iudyd4ulls ICudQOI, anu
had been stopping at Central Ameri-
can ports on the way up the coast
She is accompanied by the collier
Prometheus.
The war and navy departments
deny that the army transport Buford,
now en- route to the west coast Of
Mexico to pick up American refugees,
is to be conveyed by the Perry and
Preble.
Although it is admitted at both the
state and war departments that the
Buford has shipped 40 enlisted men IN
der the command of Capt, Herbert ].
Brees, it is explained that they are
taken merely as a disciplinary precau-
ton.
1t was pointed out that the Buford
in her cruise down the coast would be
likely to pick up Americans of all class
es, and it was believed to be highly
desirable to have soldiers aboard to
preserve order on the vessel.
Captain Brees is aid-de-camp on the
staff of Major General Murray, COM
handing the western division.

Urqes Farmers to Raise Fish.

There are signs that the time is
not far distant" said William E. Nee
han, former state commissioner of
Fisheries and present state director of
the public aquarium in Paramount Park,
when farmers will consider fish cuI-
ture as important a part of their call
Ing as the raising of grain or pota-
toes or pountry. When that day ar
rives the fish industry of Pennsylvania
will rank as high as any other indus
try
There are few farms in Pennsyl-
vania without springs, a stream and
swampy land of which no use is
made and upon which the farmer pays
taxes without any return. Most of
the streams and the springs and the
swamp land could be utilized for the
rearing of fish. Under intelligent care
an otherwise useless piece of wet land
can be made to yield as much, acre

HOLDS TEACHERS
PAYMENTS VALID
Insurance Fund Law Upheld by
Attorney General.
SIMILAR CASES ARE CITED
Police and Firemen Pensions DecIar-
ed Constitutional, and Same Rea-
soning Applies to Teachers PEN
sion, Says Bancroft.

Madison.-Chapter 323 of the laws
of 1911, known as the teachers in
surance and retirement fund law, is
held constitutional in an opinion by
Attorney General Bancroft in re-
Spouse to an Inquiry by State Treas
urer Dahl
Treasurer Dahl is prompted to
make the inquiry by the fact that
warrants are coming to him for pay
ment under the provisions of the law
The statute creates a teachers in
surance and retirement fund to be
made up of so-called assessments
upon the salaries of all teachers COM
ing within the provisions of the act,
and of an amount set aside annually
from the so-called seven-tenths mill
tax equal to 10 cents for each per-
son of school age in the state.
Whether this law in fact results in
the taking of private property with
out compensation or in the grant
ing of public money in aid of any
individual association or corporation,
are held by the attorney general to
be questions already determined by
the courts negatively, and leaves the
material objection that the payment
of public funds under this act is not
for public purpose-'it is automatic
that public funds can be used only
for public purposes"
The attorney general points out
that the courts have held laws Civ
ing pensions to policemen and fire
men to be valid, land it is difficult
to see why the same reasoning should
not apply in the case of teachers in
the public schools"

MIL WAUKEE CAR MEN QUIT
Small Number of Union Men Walk
Out on Long Threatened Strike
Order-Cars Kept Going.

Milwaukee.-The long threatened
strike order of the local street car
mems union has been issued. Ac-
cording to the company, fewer than
100 men responded to the order.
The strike affected only employees
of the Milwaukee Electric Railway
and Light company. About 1900
men are employed by this company
SO officials of the corporation predict
that the strike will not affect the
service in any way. They said that
it could not prove successful, as the
great majority of their employees
were nc: III sympathy with it and
would not support it.
The employees who responded to
the strike order Immediately left
their cars, taking their controllers
and cash boxes with them and leav-
ing the cars standing in the streets,
thus blocking other cars and delay
ing for time thousands of people
who at that hour always crowd the
cars on their way home at night
There was little disorder Only
one man was arrested. 1t is alleged
that he attempted to pull the trolley
pole from the wire on one car
manned by a crew that refused to
strike.
When the strike order was issued
the city workers were pouring from
office buildings, stores, factories and
shops. The places of the strikers
equipped in some cases with
wrenches, took the cars to the ter
minal building, where they were
manned with new crews and sent out.
