TENSE FEELING IN
MEXICAN CAPITAL,

Not since the recent revolutions began
has the feeling in the Mexican capital
been so tense as it was today. The most
categorical denials by the American
charge. Nelson OShaughnessy and Mr..
Lind, of knowledge of any developments
on which this feeling could be based
failed to disabuse the minds of the people
generally of the belief that the next "a
hours would SEQ some decisive move on
the part of Washington.
The reports spread until there was
scarcely foreign resident In the capi-
tai who had not heard that the AmerI-
can charge had been given, or was about
to be given his passports. A large part
of the population confidently expected to
see the whole embassy staff depart on
the evening train for Vera Cruz.
All sorts of rumors were current Many
persons vino We're contemplating leaving
the country in the near future, made
hurried preparations and caught the night
train to Vera Cruz. preferring to walt
there until they can procure steamer ac-
commodations to remaining in the capt.
tall
Mr.. Lind was said to have received
messages from Vera Cruz, urging him to
return at once, for fear the railroad
would be cut.
The unea siness was accentuated through
the receipt by several persons of mes
sages from relatives and friends in the
United States urging their immediate de-
parture from Mexico.

Personal Representative of
Wilson Meets General Car
ranZa-Presents Amer
can Proposals

Nogales, Sonora, Mex, November IL.
Crossing a narrow little street from
the United States into Mexico today,
william Bayard Hale, personal repre-
sentative of President Wilson, met the
constitutionaIists' chief. General Ven
ustiano Carranza and his cabinet AMI
presented to them a definite proposal
from the American government.
What the proposal was, the American
diplomatic agent declined to say. The
Mexican revolutionary leaders also
were silent but to those who have been
anxiously awaiting the development of
the American policy with regard to
Mexico. 1t was fraught with possibil
tiles for the destinies of the war-torn
republic and her relations with her
northern neighbor.
"All that could be learned regarding
the proposal of President Wilson was
that 1t was in writing and that 1t re-
ouired certain things, including pledges.

LEAVES MESSAGE IN
PRESIDENTS OFFICE

Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the charge,
was the messenger who delivered the
ultimatum. He was unable to get into
personal touch with General Huerta,
but left the message at the President i
office.
1t was intimated tonight at the pal
ace that General Huerta had not re-
ccived the note in time to give it full
consideration. This, however, did not
appear to Mr.. Lind valid excuse for
procrastination.
The prevention of the convening OF Con-
gress has been one of the essential points
in the negotiations conducted by Mr.. Lind;
this for two reasons: First. 1t was be-
lieved that the new Congress would lose
no time In passing measures having to
do with the oil concessions: and, second,
because the convening of Congress would
give an air of legality to Huerta's gov
ernment.

CURRENCY BILL

REPORTED SOON
Practical Agreement Has
Been Reached by Demo-
cratic Members
PROPOSED CAUCUS
PLAN ABANDONED
Measure in Accordance With Presi-
dent Wilson's Views Expected To
be Taken to Senate at Once.
More Time Given


Washington, November 12.-The at
tempt TO. force the administration cur
rency bill through the senate by wny
of the democratic caucus was aban-
doned today and the banking and cur
rency committee of the Senate was
the bill.
A practical agreement by six demo-
cratic senator's, half of the committee,
and hope Tor final report within five or
six days, was reported to the democratic
conference whent it met today by Senator
Owen and at his request the conference
took no action.
Since the call for the conference was
issued Senators Reed and O'Gorman had
Joined Chairman owen and Senators
Pomerene, Shafroth and Hollis, support
ers of the administration measure, de-
spite their votes against some of its
provisions in the committee. These six
democrats have virtually agreed on
bill which meets the views of President
Wilson. This measure will be taken be-
fore the Senate soon as possible
Hitchcock Not Reconciled
A further attempt to bring Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, in line with his
democratic colleagues, was made in a
meeting of democrats of the committee
after the conference. but Senator Hitch
cock insisted that he could not reconcile
his views with the demands of the Pres
ident. Tomorrow the full committee
democrats and republicans, will meet,
and another attempt will be made to
secure an agreement among a majority
IL this fails it is probable that the
democrats and republicans will make a
unanimous report on those details of
the bill which all approve and then sub
nit supplementary reports showing the
Senate their disagreement on the funda-
mentals of the bill. The republicans and
Senator Hitchcock have announced their
determination to stand out to the last for
the public ownership of the regional
banks in the new system and for govern
ment control Of these banks.
Short Session
Todays conference was in session but
about half an hour. Senator Owen made
a statement of the situation in the com
mittee and said that six of the seven
democrats were In practical agreement
He declared that five or six days more,
he believed, would give the committee
time to frame a report. Without fur
ther discussion the conference agreed to
adjourn, subject to the call of the chair
man.
Chairman Owen was asked by several
senators whether or not he was con-
vinced that currency legislation could not
be put through the Senate at this ses-
sion of Congress. and whether an ad-
journment of Congress might not we'll be
taken. He made no definite reply, but
several senators took the position that

Mexico City, November 12.-Gen.
yictorianO Huerta tacitly refused to-
night to accede to the demands of the
United States, expressed in an ulti-
matum, sent to him by President Will
sons personal representative, John
Lind.
General Huerta was notified early
today that unless he returned an an

effect that he would prevent the newly
elected Congress from convening, and,
furthermore, make this action known
to the members of the diplomatic
corps by midnight, the United States
would have no further parleying with
the Mexican government.
Mr.. Lind waited until o'clock and
received no answer. He then made ar
rangements fer his depaeture .cA the
train leaving for Vera Cruz at
o'clock 1t was announced, however,
that General Huerta had one more
chance-that if he took the action de-

failed to reply to Mr.. Lind within the
time specified would be overlooked.

lines of the mouth of a shark said to have
been 10 feet long. caught by the Porto
Rican in the waters OF st. Andrews Bay.
The mouth of the shark had been de-
tached from the big fishs head. and was
spread open so as 10 present a complete
circle. The bones holding the teeth in

The unusual sight Of a sharks mouth

excited much curiosity.
The negro said he caught the shark in
st. Andrews bay SOME weeks ago and
that il had taken six men TO land the big
fish. The shark was caught with hoolS
