PRESIDENT IS
WELL PLEASED
1t the Attitude of European Powers
in Regard to Mexican
Affairs

Washington, D. c., Nov. 15.-Uni-
ted support from the great powers
abroad for the American policy to-
wards Mexico, shown in a variety of
quiet diplomatic activities, gives
President Wilson and Secretary Bry-
an a confQent feeling that the elm
ination of Gen. Victoriano Huerta as
provisional president Of Mexico soon
would be an accomplished fact.
That the financial blockade insti-
tuted by the United States had tied
the purse strings of Europe; that
diplomatic pressure was being exert
ed necessarily on all sides at Mexico
City; that close friends of Huerta
were applying their influence, and
persistent reports saying Huerta had
gone into mysterious seclusion raised

BUSHNELL VOTED BONDS
Sumter County Seat is Going to be
an Up-to-Date Little City

Bushnell Times: The bond cleo
tion Tuesday passed off very quietly.
Apparently practically all the opposi-
ton which seemed to be to the bond
tissue had vanished. The people
showed their confidence in the ven-
ture by voting almost solid for the
bonds. Each proposition carried by
an overwhelming majority. There
were only seven votes against the
waterworks and sewerage PROPOSE
Ition and lighting Question and but
six against the streets and drainage
question. We are indeed gratified
at the results and hope that in
short time the bonds may be market
ed and the needed improvements be-
gun. Our space is so limited this
week We cannot give the notice so
important matter deserves.

PITIFljL CONDITION

Hundreds Killed by Earthquake and
Thousands Rendered
Homeless

! Lima, Peru, Nov. 15.-Ten towns
destroyed and several hundred per-
sons killed in an earthquake which
occurred last Friday in the noun
| famous Peruvian province OF Aym-
areas. News OF the disaster reached
this city by courier.
The number of known dead was
/ l120 when the couriers left the de-
| Ivastated district, but it was believed
that several hundred more bodies
would be recovered from the wreck
ed towns. The survivors are living
in the open spaces and are suffering
great privations owing to the lack of
food and shelter.
| The government has forwarded a
large quantity of provisions and has
appropriated funds for their relief.
Official kilograms report a con-
tinuance of the earthquake in the
province of Aymareas in the depart
ment of Apurimao. The city of Chall-
huanoa, with population of nearly
1000, capital of the province, is re-
/ ported in ruins. A private telegram
says the deaths number more than
200.
Apurimoa is in Southwestern Peru

Fletcher may remain in the city and

History Has Never Recorded 80
Many Wrecks in One Storm on
Lake Huron

Port Huron, Nov. 15.-Each hour
adds to the toll Of disasters which
occurred on Lake Huron during last
Sundays storm. Bodies Of sailors
of five and perhaps six vessels have
been found on the shore OF the lake;
wreckage from two other boats still
and no trace has been found OF two
vessels or their crews totaling forty
men
Never in Michigan's maritime his
tory has Lake Huron been the scene
of such succession of disasters.
Conservative estimates of the loss of
life fix the total at $50 at least. The
damage to vessels and cargoes will
be several millions of dollars.
Lying at various morgues along
the Canadian shore are bodies Of
sailors from the steamers James Car
ruthers, Regina, John A. Mclean,
Wexford and Charles S. Price. 1t is
practically certain these vessels
went down with all on board There
are also a number Of unidentified
bodies. Perhaps these were of sail
ers on the unidentified freighter
which lies bottom side up in Lake
Huron, 13 miles north of here
Many still think she is the Regina,
others cling to the story that she col
lided with the Regina and the latter
sank. Wreckage of the steamers Ar
gus and Hydrus has been cast
ashore. Neither of these boats have
been heard from since the storm
swept the lakes.
The freighter Isaac NJ Scott is al
so missing.
Capt. Ely, of the tug Sarnia City,
reports that he sighted the wreck of
an unidentified steamer near Port
Austin. She is believed TO be a total
loss. She may be one of the boats
already reported missing.
