KINDLY MEANT, BUT USELESS
No Possibility of Accepting Proposal Nebraska Also Is Standing Pat Freight Rates Would Ren-

Kansas City, Aug. 20.-Reports re- ceived here from Milwaukee, Wis, say active steps to relieve the situa- tion in Kansas and Nebraska, where cattle are starving to death and dying of thirst, followed the telegraphing of offers to the stockmen in the afflicted region to provide free pasturage in Wisconsin for the suffering animals. The Wisconsin invitation Is sent through the chambers of commerce of seven upstate cities, and they are now dickering with tho railroads for relief by emergency freight rates.
 The idea is that the cattle, which otherwise would die, can be shipped to Wisconsin, there fat encd and sent to market at On caso, and the rail roads will be asked 10 give the ship pers in Kansas. Nebraska and Okla homa l.ae freight rates to Chicago. hut allow tho cattle to be sent to Chicago vii ror he~r W seoYeia and unloadcd and fattened in transit.
 Hodges Sees No Heed.
 In regard to the offer of Wisconsin cities to furnish free rastu!a3e to Kansas cattle, Gov. Hodges sad:
 The offer is in kindly spirit and appreciated, but there is not the re- motest possibility that anyone will send any stock to Wisconsin. If the:c should be need the freight rates prob- ably would preclude any poss 'lity of shipping cattle there for pasturage. But we don't need to do that.
 "The drought is being broken In Kansas. The only thing needed is water, and we are beginning to get that There is no concern about the situation. Things are getting better daily.
 Agriculture experts have reported to me that there is five times as much rough feed as is necessary in the state, to winter the stock, if the farm. CTS will only conserve it."
 Stockmen in Nebraska said that the condition of Nebraska pastures is not such as to make it necessary to send cattle to Wisconsin to be fed. Stock in Nebraska, it was declared, was in no danger of starvation or even great suffering, the ranch country having been blessed with more rain than tho strictly agricultural district in tho southern and eastern sections of the state.

THREE PEACE PROPOSALS
 SUBMITTED TO HUERTA.

Washington. Aug. 20. 1t is under stood the three proposals to Iluerta, transmitted to him through Lind, We're.
 1. That Huerta announce that he will not be a candidate in the election which he promised shall be held Oct. 25. This would be equivalent to Huer- ta making the declaration that he was provisional president of Mexico only just as the United States and Great Britain recognize him. He has de- clared that he is the constitutional president and pointed to the action of the general assembly of Mexico in sassination of President Madero and Vice President Suarez.
 ?. That Huerta resign and designate someone in Mexico friendly to both himself and the constitutionalists as provisional president. Such action would give Huerta the right to enter the elections as a candidate for the presidency.
 B. Huerta agree to stop fighting at the results thereof. In this event the United States would extend formal recognition to the successful candi- date, whether it be Huerta or some other Mexican.
 Contrary to reports, the proposals did not carry threat that if Huerta did not acquiesce, the United States would lift the embargo against the in Surgents obtaining arms and ammd- nition in the United>States without re- str1ction. This feature has not been presented to Huerta. It is, however, being seriously considered by the pres dent, secretary of state and Senator Bacon, chairman of the senate com mittee on foreign relations.

 Ihaw expressed a wish to get to the Grand Trunk railway line, which would take him to Quebec. It was ex- plained to him that he was then ap- preaching the Canada border and that the Grand Trunk line lay about 15 miles west of the Maine Central. If he wished to reach the Grand Trunk. he would have to drive across coun- try by team or automobile. Thaw in- quired the best place to leave the train and finally decided to get off at Hersford.
 Meantime one of the men who had accompanied Thaw left the train at Colebrook, N. H., and tried to get an automobile to pick up Thaw on the other side of the line. Sheriff Kelsey also left the train at Colebrook. and when Thaw's companion left the town in an automobile the sheriff followed in another car.
 Meantime, Thaw had got off at Hereford, just over the Canadian line. and, not finding his companions, start ed to look up conveyance for him. self.

Senators See Messages of Denial

Senators Lodge and Stone were shown the following cablegram to Sec retary Bryan from Charge O'Shaugh- messy;
 "The correspondents have cabled that the Mexican government has stated that its note to Lind demands that the United States recognize the Huerta government before F o'clock midnight (yesterday). or statement practically to that effect.
 q brought the matter to the urgent attention of the minister of foreign affairs. He immediately saw the presi- dent and Minister Gobernacion Senor Urrutia, who Is supposed to have given out the statement, and he authorized me to deny this statement to my government as having no foun- dation in fact"
 The senators were also shown a message from John Lind, in which he said: Spent two hours with Huerta at his suggestion. Very cordial"
 The senators conferred briefly with President Wilson, and as they left the White House said they were satisfied that alarming reports were not justi. fled. They still were hopeful that Lind's efforts to bring about an amica- ble understanding would be success full.
 Both senators were acquainted with the contents of Huertas note to the American government, cabled by Charge O'Shaughnessy to the state de-

Secretary Bryan Sees President.

Secretary Bryan, an early riser, read the newspapers and hurried down to h's office, where he found the reassuring cable from Charge 'Shaughnessy, and then hurried over to the White House to confer with President Wilson. While there the message came from Lind telling of the conference with Huerta.
 Members of the senate foreign re- lations committee, alarmed by the ap- parent gravity of the situation as DOT tray,d by the newspapers, hurried down to the White House to ask for a conference with President Wilson There seemed to be division of opin- ion among them as to whether Min ister Urritia's announcement vas un- authorized Some were stroIg g'y in clned to accept that explanation as given by Foreign Minister Gamboa, that he alone lrad authority to speak on questions involving his depart ment.
 Charge O'ShGughnescy's dispatch, backed up by Lind s, served to dispel the impression the news dispatches had created and the official views switched around to general belief that. while the situation was a deli cate one, there was hope of some sat isfactory conclusion so long as con- ferences were continuing between -Euerta and Lind. 1t was generally understood that wh'i the negotiations were still in progress the Mexican governments request that publication of President Wilson's views. as pre- sented by Lind, be withheld would be respected.
