Santa Fe, N. NJ, April 26.- Jesse
Nusbaum, tall and lean, and Sylvanus
Criswold Morley, short and slender,
have refused to be "cannibalized"
This is the good news received from
Yucatan by a Santa Fean who has
been in correspondence with the ax-
plorers.
Messrs. Morley and Nusbaum are
said to be on the sea and win reach
New York May /. This means they
win be in Santa Fe perhaps in a fort
night to receive the congratulations
Of their friends, who feared the two
explorers had made meal for the
Cozumel Island Indians,
Some time ago Abe Spiegclberg re-
ceived letter from Nusbaum telling
of the expedition to the island, which
is inhabited by hostile Indians with
relish for human flesh. The Santa
Feans stated that they inteded 70
explore the island in order TO study
the ruins of an old temple and that
they had taken the precaution to tray-
Ell with General Luiz. veteran luc-
atan warrior,
Evidently believing in the sharp
ness Of the Cozumel Indians teeth,
the general took with him machine
gun and ten soldiers.
It is said that two Englishmen, who
visited the island few years ago,
without taking this machine gun pre-
caution, were made into an Indian din
ner
Santa Feans feel great relief at the
news that Morley and Nusbaum arc
on the ocean, travelling to New York
with little prospects Of making q meal
even for the sharks.

JULY / is QUITE SUFFICIENT
IF U. P. AND S. p. CAN'T GET A
DIVORCE THEN THEY MIGHT
BE PUNISHED.
ARGUED BEFORE The COURT
MATTER is BROUGHT BEFORE
THE SUPREME TRIBUNAL OF
THE UNITED STATES.

Washington, April 26. Attorney
McReynolds today told the supreme
court that an extension OF time TO
July for dissolving the Union Pa
cific-Southern Pacific merger might
be greatly to the pubic interest but
he emphatically" opposed an extern
sion beyond that date or the granting
of discretionary power to the lower
court to extend the time.
The attorney generals position was
stated in brief in reply to the re-
quest of the Union Pacific attorneys
for modification Of the mandate so
as to authorize the lower court to ex-
tend the time for submission of a
plan. The attorney general ex-
pressed no opinion on whether the
supreme court had jurisdiction 10
grant the extension and added:
Among other things such an ex-
tension, possibly, may result in
bringing about state of affairs
which win render unnecessary GER
tain troblesome litigation now in con
temptation.
Accordingly l am willing that the
time be enlarged until July l. THIS
cause has been before the courts t5r
more than five years and the public
is entitled to relief in harmoSy with
the provisions Of the statute which
that such case shall be CIV
en- precedent over others and in ev-
cry way expedited.

Sees TROUBLE WITH
ENGLAND AHEAD
FORMER MINISTER TO SPAIN DIS
cussEs THE PANAMA CANAL
TOLLS

Washington, April 26. The Panama
canal tolls controversy between Great
Britain and the United States furnish
es a test of the century-old peace be
tween the two countries, in the opin-
ion Of Hannis Taylor. former minister
to Spain. who spoke at today's meet
ing of the American Society of Inter.
national Law.
I'VE have a pending problem whose
solution is to test the strength Of the
so-called moral alliance between the
two grand divisions OF the English
speaking peoples" said he. Let us
never forget that through the Panama
canal the fleets Of botn countries are
to unite as a great police force for the
preservation Of the peace Of the world
It is not a good time to quarrel just
at the moment when we are about to
join hands in such an understanding.
Through restless and unneces-
sary impatience we committed an un-
paralleled act of international violence
in taking away the canal zone from
Columbia. Goes it not therefore be-
hoove us to be calm. discreet and fair
minded in dealing with the second
great question Of international law and
diplomacy which the building Of the
canal has presented for solution?'
The need Of the hour is to suspend
the menacing and probably hopeless
contest in congress for the repeal Of
the act to which Great Britain OBJ
jects. Let diplomacy first exhaust its
resources and len let congress be-
called upon"

Washington, April ga compre-
hensive analysis of the income tax by
Representative Hull of Tennessee, its
author, featured today's general de-
bate on the tariff in the house. Other
speakers were on the program for dis
cussion of the tariff itself
Mr.. Hull replied today 20 numerous
comments on provisions of the IN
come tax To the suggestion that it
is class legislation and a distinction
between citizens of large means and
those without particular means, he
answered that its purpose was to
reach for taxation those who have
escaped taxes and who are most able
to bear them. He declared the masses
of the people were paying most of the
s312, 100000 tariff taxes and most Of
the state and local taxes, save in a
few states.
Where then" he askeO, is the In
justice of requiring the receivers of
incomes of more than $4,000 to equal
ize in some measure these tax bur
dens by contributing less than $780,
100000 to the federal treasury"
He denied that there was any sen
sationalism in the effects of the tax.
Representative Kahn of California,
republican, denied the contention Of
the democrats that protection was re-
sponsfble for monopoly.
IF that be true he said, there
ought to be no combinations or mono
poles in free trade Eigland, while
the fact remains that Great Britain is
honeycombed with combinations and
monopolies. Monoplies owe their ex.
istence to mans cupidity.
Representative Green. republican, oi

declared that it would shift Americas

Washington, April Suffragists
for the second time in a week today

vance arguments .fg.r..it .ffqr The cause TIE
women were Mrs. Robert NJ "a lf'ol-
lette and Mrs. Sutherland Of Utah.
Representative Bryan Of Washington
state also was among the pleaders.
Mrs. La Toilette argued that women
were as vitality interested in tariff
legislation as the men.
Dr. Shaw made the concluding ar
gument.
I'VE are not afraid Of the body Of
ladies who are going up and down the
land opposing suffrage" said she.
"They are just enough in number 50
that by holding out their skirts they
can make a screen for the men oper-
ating dens Of vice and iniQuity and
to hide behind. In every
state where women now vote suffrage
was opposed by the forces of evil, for
they know that we propose to make
this country a place Of safety where
can see their daughters 80 to
school in the morning and feel that
they will return, and where man
need not fear to send his little girl on
an errand through the city streets.
"We win come again and again and
again. Our grandchildren win come
until this is democracy in fact"
Clifford pinchot made brief speech.
"of course we all know that equal
suffrage is coming; the only question
Is in what FORM" he concluded.
