MAILS HIS PHOTO
AS STORY DENIAL
Porter Charlton Shows Friends
That Report of Illness
Is Untrue.

New York, July 2S.-Porter Charl.
ton, who was recently said to be ser.
iously ill in the Jail of Hudson county,
N. j., where he is awaiting extradi-
ton to Italy, for the trial on a charge
of wife murder, is in good health.
Charlton is denying the report of his
illness by mailing to his friends photo
graphs which he has had taken of him
self in the Jail during the last week.
He appears from them to be almost
robust.
1t is learned that during the three
years confinement he has engaged in
interviewing many other prisoners
with whom he came in contact and
has attempted novel of underworld
life. The prisoner declares such con
fidence that he will be acquitted in
Italy that he told a friend in jail
yesterday that he would surely be
back in this country for a dinner with
him on Christmas day.
Judge Paul Charlton, his father
and his step-mother, have been stay
ing for the last 10 days at little
hotel opposite the Jail, and they spend
several hours daily with the prisoner

TOWNSEND TAKES
ROUND AT TARIFF
Senator Sees Business Troubles
in the Wake of the Demo
cratic Measure.

Washington, D. c., July Ex-senator
Townsend in speech in the senate
today characterized the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill as ''the Gettysburg where
the factions of the republican party
were formed in battle array" that led
to the triumphs of the democratic par
ty, giving it the opportunity to write
the pending tariff bill
This BILL" the senator said, "was
conceived in hatred of the American
policy CT protection and brought forth
in the darkness of a secret caucus
chamber under professional obstetrics
Is il any wonder that the thing is mis-.
shapen and deformed? Is it any won
der that American progress and pros
perity look with disfavor upon it?''
Townsend also criticized executive in
reference with caucus domination.
Injecting comments on the lobby in,
quiry in the senate and house, Town
send said criticism of improper actions
should be based upon unquestioned
facts. and not upon falsehoods. and
continued: To-day, as at all time in
the past, the sensational is too prom
inently featured and too little atten
ton given to truth. Indeed. certain
lot of abuse and misrepresentation en-
seems to be reigning and congress has

Referring TO fears Of business disas

the country would be no worse than i

Does Not Believe Crisis
Has Been Reached in
Revolution.
NO PEACE PLANS MADE
Ambassador Lays History of
Three Years Troubles Be-
fore Executive.

Washington, D. c., July 2S.-Presi-
dent Wilson does not believe the pub
lie mind in the United States is ex:
cited over the situation in Mexico,
or is he convinced a crisis has been
reached in the revolution itself. This
information was obtained in official
circles today with an authoritative de-
nial that any proposal looking toward
cooperation between American mill
for restoration of peace, had been sug-
gested.
Those who approached the presi-
dent today on the Mexican situation
| found him disinclined to discuss the
matter, as later he was to confer with
Ambassador Wilson. Secretary Bryan
arranged to see the president before
the conference. The secretary also
continued reticent on Mexican affairs.
1t was learned at the White house,
however, that reports crediting AM
bassador Wilson with having advocat-
ed proposals contemplating military
cooperation with Mexico or interven-
tion were unfounded. The president
has received from the ambassador a
historical account of events in Mexico
during the last three years.
NO. REMEDY OFFERED.
The ambassador today declared he
had not mentioned any remedies for
the situation to any one. He had
reserved these, he said. for his per-
sonal interview with the president.
Contradictory information has reached
Washington regarding the Huerta ad-
ministration, and it was said to be
a question of the reliability of infor>1a-
ants. Officials declined to state which
reports were being credited. 1t was
said, however, that the last 10 days
there had been little or no change of
affairs in the southern republic.
Ambassador Wilson, after confer
ence with the president, said: MY
views relative to the Mexican situation
have been placed in the hands of the
president for consideration" Bryan
was not present. The ambassador ex-
pected to leave Washington tonight, to
be away several days. He would not
discuss the possibility of his return to
Mexico in an official capacity. His de-
parture at this time seems to indicate
he will not appear before the senate
foreign relations committee.
INVESTIGATING SHOOTING.
The shooting of Charles B. Dixon,
Jr., at Juarez, is regarded as a seri-
Gus incident, but its bearing on the
general Mexican situation was min
imized by officials here today, as the
American demand for an investigation
. and punishment of the offenders ap-
parently was being complied with At
the White house it was said the United
} States would insist upon summary &C.
ton to the guilty.

DEMOCRATS HARD
TO FIX; MULHALL
Lobbyist Admits Failure in His
Effort to Dictate Makeup
of Committees.

Washington, d. c.. July 2S.-Less
than a thousand of the Mulhall letters
remained TO be put on record when the
senate investigating committee met
today. Attorneys for the manufaetur-
ers and American Federation of Labor
will cross-examine Mulhall in an at.
tempt to shake his story before he is
turned over to the house committee
about the middle of the week.
In January Mulhall wrote General
Manager Bird of the manufacturers
about the democratic house: Il am

Did you and Emery agree to name
any men?' asked Nelson.
Not that l remember"
Senator Lodge appeared TO deny
Mulhal's statement that he conferred
with him in the summer of 1910. He
denied ever having seen Mulhall be

Washington, D. c., July 2s.-Farm-
ing is not the most profitable business
in the world, according to a bulletin
of the department of agriculture.
For the first time in the history of
farming in the United States the de-
partment has managed to get accurate
data on the subject
It reports that the average income
of the American farmer is s640.40 per
year. at is reasonable to infer" says
the department. that at least half
of the farm families in this country
lave even smaller incomes"
