any other member of his official fam
lily or of the unofficial coterie whom

Denial Made.
Washington.-The Mexican situation

added little of deficite or tangible
nature concerning the exact status Of

The reports from Mexico City that
new and somewhat summary move
had been made by the United States
toward the elimination of General
Huerta brought no response from the
state department or other official
sources, beyond brief statement from
Secretary Bryan that no "ultimatum"
had been presented.

and not electors, and electors only have the right to vote on charter amendments, seems to the women who are thereby deprived of their rights, quibbling of the most unworthy kind, and there is a hot feeling of indigna- ton, not only in New Haven but among the women all over the sta te as this careless disregard of the Wom- ems rights.
 The suffragi have no reason. how ever, to be discontented with the opin- ion of Counsel Kleiner. It is bringing the women by shoals into their or ganization. Many women who were before indifferent are touched in their pride, and also shaken in their con victions by this inroad on the rights which the state had given to them and women who did not think they cared at all about the school vote so long as it was safely theirs, are indig- nant to find it flched from them, and are echoing the assertion of the Suf- fragists that the only safe position is that of equal political rights for men and women.

RADICAL SOCIALISTS
 SUFFER DEFEAT
Members of Reichstag Not Con- demned for Supporting Ger man Armament Tax.

The radical section of the Social Democratic party suffered a second defeat at yesterdays session of the National Socialist Congress at Jena, Germany, when a resolution was adopted impIiedly approving the stand taken by the Socialist mem pers of the Reichstag favoring- the imposition of taxes for the purchase of armaments- The first defeat of the Radicals occur red last Tuesday, when the congress voted against the calling of a general strike as means for furthering the Socialists political propaganda.
 Rosa Luxemburg, the woman. So- cialist, and George Ledebour and others of the Radical leaders in the debate that followed the adoption of the resolution yesterday, attacked the members of the Reichstag who had voted in the Chamber in favor of armament tax, declaring their support of the government was a betrayal of the party's antinilitarist principles.
 Herr Molkenbuhr, prominent member of the executive committed declared he had a letter written by the late August Bebel, leader of the Socialists in the Reichstag, just before BebeRs death, in which 'Bebe1 said the vote of the Socialist members of the Reichstag on the armament bills was in accordance with the tactics pursued by the party since 1893.

lDUN'S WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Business Confidence Apparent ly Returning-More Doing Than a Year Ago.

R. G. Dun & Co., weekly Review of Trade today will say: Business con- 6dence is strengthening and there is slightly more disposition to extend op- erations further into the future. Most advices indicate a larger volume of trade than year ago, while some in ,dustriall centers report more machin- cry active, with a reduction in the number of unemployed. Labor trou- bies exert a retarding influence in a few sections. but distur rbances of a serious nature are absent Lower tenn peratures have had a. stimulating eff feet on distribution of merchandise at retail and the fall season appears to he opening up fairly we'll There Is a scarcity of many staple lines of dry goods for quick delivery, and, though the demand has subsfded, the higher price trade is fully maintained. Job bers are doing a steady business and the recent large purchases will keep the mills busy for two or three months to come Buyers of leather are oper- ating more freely and4 quotations have advanced in sympathy with the strength of the raw material Both retail and jobbing trade in footwear is moderately active, but, while shoe old contracts, new business is still slow to develop In contrast to the quieter conditions and easier tendency prevailing in finished steel lines, pig iron reflects increased firnness with heavy sales of southern iron a, feature. Inquiries for foundry grades for 1914 are more numerous, although consum- CTS appear somewhat reluctant to pay the advances asked for next years de- Iiverfes- The strong statistical posi- ton of copper. with a. further decrease in foreign stocks, has been reflected in a continued rise in prices, and 17I cents was named this week for cleo troiytic Failures this week numbered 2s2 in the United States, against 292 last wear. and 20 in Canada compared with 24 a syear ago."
