delegation in the lower house of Con-
portant part in framing the currency
bill by which the finances of the coun-
try will be regulated under the Dem

tive Harrison was one of the first
speakers for the bill from the Demo-

ed and concise and served as a gen.
eral explanation of the provisions of
the measure. Following Mr.. Harri-
sons speech came the extension into
the record of the address which Rep

He showed that centuries ago, divers
assets were used as mediums of eX

had long since reached the conclusion
that silver and gold are the best
mediums of exchange.
But the fact that for so many cen
turtles these metals have proved that
by their use people could exchange
their commodities at the least posi-

amount of justice between man and
man, and that their use as money af

most bitter hostility of modern com

 OUT OF 9 STARTED

PRESS D1sPArcH1

YUMA. Nov. 3.-Olin Davis, driving the Locomolibe No. f, checked first this afternoon in the night control of 574 4-10 miles in the Los Angeles to Phoenix race. Davis checked in at 4:O8:35 P NJ. Cadillac No. 1, Charles Soules. driving, arrived second at 4:4O:16, with Barney OldfieId third, at 4:46. J. c. Rice in Simplex No. 23, was fourth into control at 4:56:15.
 The four leaders raced for ten miles on a high mesa bordering the inter- national boundary in plain sight of hundreds of people waiting at the Col orado River. Enveloped in dust and smoke. the three leaders, Davis, Soules and Oldfield tore along, seemingly but a few yards apart Davis in reality was far out in front, but Oldfield and Soules fought it neck and neck into the checking station. Oldfield's car had been on fire four times during the 36S mile dash to Yuma and his car spouted flame as it thundered up to the control. If the precedences of tra- dition built up by five previous trans desert races still hold good, Davis and his LocOmobile will be first into Phoe- nix around noon tomorrow, but unless his time improves considerably, the two SimpleXes, barring accidents, will beat him on elapsed time. Davis elapsed time was unofficially given out tonight as 10 hours. 57 minutes and 40 sec onds for the 368 miles from Los Ange- les. Rice's Simplex, however, covered tll~ distance in 1O:44:15, while Old- fields time was one hour and 40 min utes slower than the Locomobiles'.
 Six cars checked into control before six tonight. The other IT starters in the race are strung out between Santa Ana, 30 miles from Los Angeles and the California state boundary.
 Simplex No. ,, was wrecked near Santa Ana and Omar Toft, the driver was reported tonight in the hospital seriously injured. Several other cars suffered mishaps. One or two turned over. without hurting the drivers or mechanicians, were righted and con- tinued the race.

MEXICO CITY, Nov 2-Charge O'Shaughnessey delivered President Wilson's ultimatum to Huerta to- ght. Wilson says that Huerta must resign without loss of time and not leave General Banquet as his sue cessOr. Neither must any member of his staff become president or any of HueIta's unofficial coterie.
 Senor Rabago presented NA memo randum to his chief late Sunday. but up to tonight President Huerta had returned no answer, as far as learned, and had guarded the con tents from almost all of his official and intimate cOunsellors. General Huerta's positions is regarded as one in which he will be forced to give one of two answered. refusal point blank to comply with the demand. possibly going so far as to hand the diploma tic representative his pass ports, or the elimination of himself officially. Those most intimate with the president insist that the latter course will not be taken for many reasons, the chief of which is that such action would be tantamount to submission to the rebels.
 Officials of Mexico are no longer in doubt that the Washington admin istration favors the rebel cause. and they are convinced that this is the means adopted by President Wilson and Secretary Bryan to assist Car ranza to win. General Huerta sum moned to the natioi4al palace tonight the diplomatic corps, but for what purpose was not revealed. Three oi the ministers, those of Germany, Nor way and Russia. were absent.
