Assistant Secretary of State John e.

that place bringing with them the story
that Columbus remains are in Santo Do

John Barrett director general OF the

today over the interest taken In the To-

said that ii is a subject of great signi-

The Dominican minister to the United

Views Of Mr.. Daniels,

Secretary Daniels comment on this Is
severe. He says:
"Other evidence is not lacking that the
present price OF steel ar.nor is based
more upon what the companies think
they can get than what 1t costs" He
went on to show a specific instance in
the case Of S,612 tons Of steel for the
battleship Pennsylvania, He said that
when some outside concerns began to
make plans to get the business, the fig
ures of the three big plants dropped
suddenly. and they finally took the bust
ness at a saving Of considerably more
than 100000 to the government.
Investigations of the price Of steel
armor have been made before Ono was
made In President Roosevelts admins
tration and the Secretary of the Navy
WAS given the authority: to construct q
plant. but none was ever started. Ac-
cording to the figures presented to Con-
gress now, the arrnOr plate manufacture
ers Jumped their prices from $346 a ton
in 1865 to $40 a ton in 1907, and to
$454 ton last year.

The views Of all three men converge in
the Secretary's report, to which is at
tached in detail the answers of the Navy
department to the Barton resolution.
Senator Ashurst's bill calls for 81, 100000

Representative Britton has said all along
that 1t would take approximately $500,
700 to establish such plant, and the
Navy Department figures now before the
House bear him out. He has been in

Sign posts" at the Capitol are pointing
toward big steel plant, to be owned by

MONROE DOCTRINE TO
BE ASIDE--HUERTA
Continued From Page 4

! men have taken oath to s1ay Huerta,
according to General Herbert Rivett
Carnac. late military adviser to Presi-
dent Madero. He is on his way to
join Carranza- "Huerta will not be
murdered. but will be destroyed"
said the general, who is an English
man.
HUERTA WILL NOT ACCEPT
WASHINGTON, Oct 24.-Huerta
will not accept the election to Mexi-
can president at the polls Sunday.
Bryan today announced this word has
come to President Wilson through
Charge O'Shaughnessy, in Mexico
Huerta at a conference with the dip
lomatic corps in Mexico City yester-
day.
The government wheels turned rap
idly today to provide protection for
Americans in Mexico
1t is expected that the Moro Cas-
tie incident will be made basis for
a sharp note to Huerta.
Upon receipt of the information to-
day that several of Felix Diaz' aids
were arrested and imprisoned at Vera
Cruz by military authorities, Bryan
instructed O'Shaughnessy in Mexico
City to endeavor to obtain a fair trial
for the prisoners.
LINER MORRO CASTLE SAILS
NEW YORK, Oct 24-The Ward
line was notified today that the liner
MORO Castle, detained at Vera Cruz
by Mexican gunboat, has sailed from
that port.
BRIDGE ON BORDER CLOSED
LAREDO, Texas, Oct. 24-The
Mexican international bridge leading
into Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. was closed
today, giving rise to reports that 1T
will be kept closed until after the
election Sunday, to prevent any inter
ference from the United States in the
event of disorder.

detat within "a hours if Diaz is not
prisoners is the chief of the staff of
the troops attached to the national
palace, Colonel Corral, who formerly
was private secretary to Huerta-
HUERTA DEFENDS POSITION
Huerta defended his own dictator
ship, saying:
"The best government Mexico ever
had is by few. 1t viii be a long
time before Mexico will have any good
government 1t will require years
before the condition develops where
millions may go to the polls and cast
intelligent ballots and then abide
peacefully by the result.
washington can give no sufficient
answer to the people of the United
States nor the people of Europe it,,
through it's conduct. consequences so
repugnant to the universal sense Of
justice is brought about
WAR WOULD COST US HEAVY
IF crisis is forced on Mexico by
the mere blockading Of the ports of
Mexico these will cease to be of any
value for the collection of interest
to pay on the principal of anybody's
debts, and as the United States is,
by its proximity. the only country
which can enforce the will of a for
eign power on Mexico by troops, the
result would In the long run mean
that the people of the United States
would be involved in a conflict which
would cost them in addition to at
least 250,000 lives, more money than
the entire foreign investment in Mex
leo. There can be no sufficient rea-
son given for permitting such a ca
lamity to occur.
Mexico can handle her own af-
fairs best, and Mexicans best know
how to do it.

But, as a mere sojourner in this

the memory of the spirit of the
Portola fiesta, when good nature
ran tandem with decorum, and
jollity was unchecked by vulgar

we forget. They used to make a
procession for the Roman general
who came home victorious. If his
victory was a little one, they called
the thing an ovation. If he had
done great deeds, his procession was
a triumph.
Today we, the people, have given
ourselves an ovation and triumph
We have commemorated our vic
tories. Our captives of industrial
art and invention have marched.
The best we have in beauty and
bravery has graced the show. And
it was godlike in that we, the peo-
pie, were the show, enacted the
show and beheld the show, as good
old Omar puts it.
No one deeply interested in the
feminist movement could fail TO be
impressed by the part the women
took in this great parade. We have
always had women in our process
sions since the time the Roman gen
erals dragged beautiful captives at
their chariot wheels. But todays
procession showed the women
working beside the men as human
beings-not captives nor ornaments.
They rode with the committees,
they marched in uniform, bearing
standards Their place was not so
highly specialized as it has been.
One could imagine a new dignity
upon the new voters.
