Washington, Nov. 15.-lnstructlohs
were sent to Charge O'Shaughnessy
last night indicating to him the extent
to which the United States Will go III
re-opening the negotiations with those
counsellors of Provisional president
Huerta, who earlier in the day sought
TO renew the parleys.
The anxiety shown by those OH
cials close to General Huerta was re-
yarded as a favorable sign by high OIL
ficials here, who expected some deh-
mite assurances would be forthcoming
ouickly upon compliance with the
American demand that the new Con-
yress be not convened and that Huerta
be eliminated.
The position of the American Gov
ernment, however, is that unless some
thing definite is promised by the
Huerta officials the resumption OF the
negotiations would be fruitless.
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1913-11-15

they were made, and Huerta is said to
have been deeply impressed when he
realized that the nation which he had
believed would stand by him indefinite
ly had joined with one which he al
ready regarded as his enemy.
That Huertas friends are attempting
to persuade him to vacate the presi-
dency or at least to prevent the new
Congress from meeting is a feature
of the situation that is not discussed
by them except with absolute secrecy.
1t is one of those subjects which it is
considered not safe to discuss, and all
their efforts have been made more by
means of intimations and suggestions
than by definite advice.
Huerta is said to be considering his
own elimination, although this is al
way denied whenever the direct ques-
tion is put to anyone connected with
the government.

consistent silence regarding all de-
velopments of the situation. There is
in all Mexico no man more carefully
watched by personal friends, as well
as by government agents, than Mr.
'Shaughnessy to see that he does not
leave town and thus confirm by act
the ever-present rumor that he ha.
been recalled.
A question which has been put to Mr.
O'Shaughnessy innumerable times by
representatives of the government who
have called on him since Mr.. LIND
passed out of the difficulty is regard
ing the identity of the man who coult
be named to succeed Huerta.
Pedro Lascurain has been suggested
as the official successor to the presi
dency, as he was secretary of foreigi

TAMMANY TOOL
IS INDICTED
FOWLER, DESCRIBED AS "BAG.
MAN" FOR WIGWAM CHARGED
WITH ExTORTlON.

New York, Nov. 14.-Everett P. Fow-
ler of Kingston, N Y, who was describ-
ed by John A. Hennesy, graft investi-
gator for former Gov. Sulzer, as the
Tammany "bagman" for contributions
from state highway contractors was
indicted Friday on a charge of extor-
ton. He was accused of forcing Seneca
P. Hull, a highway contractor of Cort-
land, ~ Y, and an enrolled Republi-
can, to give $3.50 as a Democratic
campaign contribution under threat
that the work on Hull's $23,500 state
road would not be approved by the
state highway inspectors, and that his
pay would be held up.
The indictment was the first growing
out of the inquiry by District Attorney
Whitman into the charges of graft in
the State Highway Department made
by Hennessy during his recent election
campaign against Tammany Hall and
repeated by him as a witness at the
District Attorneys John Doe inquiry
More indictments which may include
conspiracy as we'll as extortion are ex
pected.
Hull told his story to the grand jury
and produced documentary evidence
to support it.

An audience that about half filled

the Auditorium when "The Confes-

Park View has received absolutely
no consideration at the hands of the
District Commissioners or Congress dur
ing the last year.
This was the statement made by John
g. McGrath, president of the Park View
Citizens Association, at the monthly
meeting last night in the Whitney Ave
nue. Christian Church. Mr. McGrath
asserted that the Park View section
still had temporary sewer service in
stalled when the suburb was first built
up, although some few changes were
being made in this system where condi-
tions made 1t absolutely necessary.
The section is still without school
facilities, he asserted, while the lighting
system is notoriously bad. and the police
