the hume repaired and changes and i'm
provements are being made on the other
buildings ON the property.
The old incline was abandoned some

cient to warrant the work now outlined.

of the plant, and for the erection Of

Tintic Standard.

The Tintio Standard people are con-
sidering the advisability Of raising
through to the surface from the 1000
level in order to give the mine proper
ventilation. For several months past
the work has been greatly handicapped
on account Of poor air and, while the
air line which was recently installed
has been q big help, there are still
workings Of the gas which continuously
comes from the loose fissuring.
The Golden Ray group Of mines, to
the west Of the Centennial Eureka
property, has been leased by Captain
Deprezin and j. W, Smith, well known
local mining men, and work was com
menced this week in tho winze to the
east Of the tunnel, where some fine iron
and heavy spar is exposed, carrying
some values in gold and silver. The
prospects Of getting something good in
this ground looks very favorable,

some distance to tho northwest of tho

and it is Mr.. Bestlemyer's intention to
soon stop sinking and take up cross

SIDDONS ESCAPES
INJURY IN ACCIDENT
Horse Drawing Commission
er's Coupe Becomes Fright
ened and Runs Away.

Commissioner Frederick 1. Siddons mar
rowly escaped serious injury this morn
ing, when a horse attached to a coupe
which was conveying the District official
to the Municipal building became fright
ened at an automobile and ran for twelve
blocks before 1t could be stopped. The
skill Of Alexander s. Hicks. the Com
missioner's colored driver, in guiding the
frightened animal through crowded thor
oughfares, and finally checking it on a
side street. probably saved Mr.. Siddons'
life.
The horse, which formerly was in the
fire department service and is high
spirited, six-year-old gelding became
frightened on Massachusetts, avenue be-
tween 18th and 18th streets. and headed
for Scott Circle. Hicks turned him into
10th street. al the circle, and then en-
sued mad dash up that thoroughfare to
T street, where the driver succeeded in
getting the horse under control
1T was the closest call 1 ever had
said Commissioner Siddons when he ar
rived at the Municipal building. THE
coupe sWerved wildly as we went I'D 10th
street, and several collisions were barely
averted, but there was no chance for me
to escape from the vehicle NY principal
fear was that the harness would break
before Hicks could get the animal under
control. Hicks did not lose his head for
a minute. and 1t is due to his skill that
the incident did not result seriously"

SENATORS APPROVE
WILSON'S MESSAGE
Only Criticism Regards Sug'
qestion That Americans
Leave Mexico.

Senator Bacon. chairman of the COM
mittee on foreign relations of the Senate.
expressed what Is thought to be the
prevailing sentiment of both sides of the
chamber as regards President Wilson s
message on Mexico.
The Presidents message is an ad-
mirable document he said. 1T sets
forth the facts without reservation. and
puts US right before the world.
Moreover, l believe it will have a
calming effect on our own people. and a
soothing influence upon public expression
in the United States. An important fea-
ture Of the message, which must be
borne in mind, is that it does not close
the case: does not bring negotiations to
finality, but leaves the situation open
for further dealings in an effort to bring
about satisfactory settlement
United Congress Behind Him.
Commenting upon the Presidents mes
sage Senator OGorman of New York
said:
"It is a magnificent message, which
reflects a solemn thought and judgment
Of all the American people. The Presi-
dent has united Congress behind him.

ship stops at the border. The repub-
lean senators are as enthusiastic in
their support of the President as are
the democrats. The utteranca Of the
President today was the voice of the
American people,.
Senator Root of New York said he had
no comment 20 make at present but that
he might discuss the message on the
floor of the Senate.
Senator Warren Of Wyoming declared
himself In sympathy with the President
In his efforts to preserve peace. He said
however. that the Presidents suggestion
that American citizens leave Mexico
might have bad effect.
But One Criticism to Make.
Senator Fall of New Mexico said:
Il am heartily in accord with the Pres
ident in his efforts to maintain peace with
Mexico. The only criticism Of the mes
sage l have to make is with reference to
that part which urges Americans to leave
Mexico. l have always been OF that
with a civilized country the United States
should insist always upon the protection
Of her citizens within the borders of that
country.
1.-The President seems to indicate that
Mexico cannot be considered civilized
nation when he suggests that Americans
leave Mexico.
Senator Sheppard of Texas interpreted
tho Presidents message as such a full
recognition of the belligerency of the
constitutionalists that he announced that
he would not press his resolution for the
recopnition Of Carranza followers as bel
Iigerents with all the privileges accorded
them by International law.
