We enjoyed a very pleasant con-
versation yesterday with Mr. R. W.
Thompson, manager OF the Hart Line
Of steamers. The late Colonel H. l..
Hart was his brother-iD-law, and he
dealt in some "reminiscences concern
ing that grand old pioneer. He came
to Florida a number of years before
the civil war, and soon after coming
obtained a government contract for
carrying the mails from Palatka to
Tampa, via Ocala. The drivers were
then compelled to carry guns and
guards for fear of attacks from In
dams. Colonel Hart afterwards es-
tabhshed a line of steamers on the
Oklawaha river, which marked an
epoch in our transportation facilities,
He planted and brought to maturity
an orange grove on the island oppo.
site Palatka, which for a long time
was show place" for all northern
visitors to the state. He was de-
veloper and did much to bring the
state into prominence.

Mr. Samuel A. Rawls is out with a
statement that the state secured a
good price for her convicts, consider
ing the depression that has existed
for so long a time in the turpentine,
phosphate and lumber industries of
the state. The convicts were again
secured by the Florida Pine Company
at an average price of $2S1.15 for
able-bodied negroes, and 250 for able
bodied whites, with the hospital in
mates and women to be sent TO the
state prison farm in Bradford county,
when that institution is in readiness.
For years past this company has
maintained a fine hospital and stock
ade near this city for the care of the
convicts 1t is not yet known what
the company will do with this plant.
1t is kept in fine condition, and will
give any experimental farm that we
have ever seen cards and spades, and
beat them to a finish.

Sulzer was a good collector but poor

Washington, d. C.-Ambassador
Henry Lane Wilson, summoned from
Mexico City to inform the Washington
administration Of conditions in the re-

hour with President Wilson and Score
tary Bryan Monday, submitting chiefly
recommendation that the United
States use its influence to establish
the Huerta regime.
It soon became known that the pres

Wilson as to the course to be pursued
are 50 radically different that the adj
ministration officials interpreted the

acceptance of Ambassador Wilson's
resignation.
President Wilson and the ambassa-
dor looked on the future Mexican sit
uation, it was learned, from opposite
viewpoints. The president is con-
cerned over the morality OF any policy
adopted by the United States and the
effect on other Latin-American coun-
tries, and Is disinclined to strengthen
government that came into power
through the questionable events Incl
dent to Madero's assassination.
Ambassador Wilson Is disposed to
look at the situation not from past
events, but with the practical idea Of
the future. He believes 1t is the bust

future, and his suggestions have been

tons, the most drastic in phraseology
that have been made since the present
American administration came into
power, were made to the Huerta gov.
eminent In Mexico Monday.
The United States government de.
manded not only the prompt arrest,
courtmartial and punishment Of the
Mexican federal soldiers who shot
Charles B. Dixon, an American immi-
grafton official, at Juarez, Mexico, but
the immediate release of Charles Bis
sell and Bernard Mcdonald, mine man
ayers. imprisoned by federal soldiers
at Chihuahua City and said to be
threatened with execution.
So serious were these incidents re-
garded In official circles that they
overshadowed largely the policy dis
cussian which the visit Of Ambassador
Henry L. Wilson had brought to eli
max. The ambassador himself was SO
excited over the developments that he
dictated two strong kilograms, one to
the embassy at Mexico City and the
other to the American consul at Juarez,
and while Secretary Bryan slightly
modified their tone, they were ap-
proved and promptly dispatched.
Ambassador Wilson declined to dis
cuss the affair. The president has Am
bassador Wilson's long report in hand.
Ambassador Wilson in a general
statement said that his plan would
conserve the friendly relations be-
tween Mexico and the United States
and protect likewise the interests OF
Americans in the southern republic.
The demand that the soldiers at
Juarez be courtmartialed and that the
guilty be punished Is much more
pointed request than has been hitherto
voiced by the American government
Although Mcdonald, who is Bisselrs
fellow prisoner at Santa Rosalia, is re.
ported to be an English subject, the
demands for protection covered both
men. and the American consul at Chi.
