Unable to procure vehicles and
given only a short time to gather such
of their portable possessions as they
could, the civilians started to follow
the deserting army on foot. The
route to the border is over 1870 miles
Of desert, without towns, railroads, or
wagon trails. That the refugees en-
dured great hardships is inevitable.
Louis Terraza, one Of the refugees,
is said to have withdrawn 100000
pesos from the banks before leaving.
Almost every one in Maria left for
the border to witness the arrival of
the refugees.
Maria is about fifty miles from
Preside and is connected only by
a wagon road and telephone.
Mexico City, Dec. 6-Hoping that
he will be able to do what 9TH
ers have been unable to do President
Huerta is sending to Europe his min
lister of finance, Adolph De Lama, on
money seeking mission. The min
lister left for Vera Cruz tonight and
will proceed from there to Paris.
Senator De Lama is in close relations
with Jose Ives De Lamantour, the
former minister of finance, and other
members of the regime who are now
in Europe, and through them, it is
said, hopes to obtain money. He re-
tains his position as minister of
finance, the office being conducted
during his absence by the sub-secre-
tary.
1t developed today that the plan
of the foreign colonies for defense
involves an effort to have marines of
nations other than the United States
brought here to join the local organ
ization which is being formed. The
plan was discussed by the diplomats
today, but the American charge d'af-
faires, Nelson O'Shaughnessy, was not
at the meeting. 1t is reported that in
case an attack on the capital becomes
imminent an effort will be made to
have General Huerta and his troops
move outside the city.
The Americans continue to do moth
ing with respect to their own defense.

Mysterious Trip
To Mexico City

Vera Cruz, Dec. 6-Lieutenant Col
onel Gage, military attache Of the
British embassy at Washington, left
today for Mexico City. He refused
to discuss his mission, although he
admitted he had an important reason
for the trip.
Washington, Dec. 6-Administra-
ton officials here are viewing with
satisfaction evidences of the growing
sense of responsibility on the part of
the rebel leaders in Northern Mexico
for the protection of life and prop
erty within the territory in their pos
session. The State Departments re-
quest for the release of Americans
held for ransom or -arrested on sus-
picion are now receiving prompt at
tention at the hands of the Constitu-
tionalist generals and it is apparent
that these officers in turn are gradu-
ally exerting more power and impos-
ing greater restraints over their sub
ordinates.
Some semblance of civil authority
also is beginning to appear in the
northern states and is meeting with
recognition at the hands Of military
leaders. Altogether officials here see
indications that a regularly-organized
civil government is about to be
evolved from the chaotic conditions
that have prevailed in that section of
Mexico for the last nine months.
1t is believed that the constitutional
lists are divided on the question OF
seeking formal recognition by the
United States. A portion of them is
said to incline to the view ascribed
to Gen. Villa that such recognition OF
their government in its present condi-
ton might encourage movement for
the separation of the northern states
from the remainder of the country.
The State Department so far has
no confirmation from official sources
of reports that the great oil compa-
nies in the state of Vera Cruz under
threats from the insurgents have can
celed their contract obligations to
supply the Mexicon government with
crude oil necessary to operate the To-
comotives on the railways. Reports
to the department indicate that there
is enough oil already above ground to
meet all the needs of the railroads
for at least six months and it is said
there is no question as to the power
or the disposition of the Huerta gov,
ernment to take forcible possession
of this fuel.

johnson Says It
Cannot Be Done
(Ry limited Press Associafions)

(By United Press Associations
San Francisco, Dec. 6-Declaring
the amalgation of the Progressive and
Republican parties to be forever i'm
possible Governor johnson addressed
delegates at formal luncheon of the
Progressive party. He declared those
Progressives heading the amalgation
call are selfseeking and said he pre-
fers defeat on the Progressive prin-
ciples to victory with Barnes and Pen
rose. He said the Progressives are
the same throughout the country, the
party representing homeogenity, while
the other parties represent hetro-
gently. He predicted the perpetuity
and eventual success of the Progress
sive party.
San Francesca, Dec. 6-The chrysal-
is of the Progressive party in Cali
fornia began to stir yesterday in it's
cocoon, and at all sides was watch
ed to see what would emerge today,
when the shell of the old Republican
organization bursts open.
Since before the national elections
of 1912 the state has been Progressive
in fact and Republican in name. Gov
ernor Johnson, elected as a Republi-
can, was a candidate with Theodore
Roosevelt on the national Progressive
ticket and the electors pledged to
Roosevelt and johnson appeared on
the ticket under the heading Repub-
lican, which, by decision of the state
supreme court, held no place for
electors pledged to Taft and Sher-
man, the nominees of the Republican
national convention at Chicago.
Today this dominant faction of
what was once the Republican party
will meet to renounce formally it's
past allegiance and to proclaim itself
the Progressive party of California.
In attendance will be Governor John
son, and Progressive leaders from all
over the state. Candidates for the
1914 elections, it has been announced,
will not be considered.
In the meantime the state central
committee of the old line Republican
party met here today for consulta-
ton. A declaration that the party
organization would be continued was
made by Chairman Gustave Bren-
ner.
The situation has been further COM
plicated by call issued yesterday
from Fresno "to progressive Republi-
cans" to meet here on December 16
The backing and purpose of this call
were obscure today to Republican
leaders and they were chary of dis
cussing it. The call itself said those
behind it We're not in sympathy with
the regular organization, but would
welcome the attendance of all Re-
publicans.

Hints for the seamstress.

A neat way to bone collar is to
sew a piece of tape on the wrong side
of the collar from shoulder seam to
edge. Make two Sits in each strip
near the middle, so that by bending
you can slip the bit of whalebone in
to stiffen the collar. When the waist
is soiled the whalebone may be taken
out, soaked If necessary to straighten
1t, and put back in the cleaned waist
Another excellent idea is to sew but
tons that cannot well be washed onto
a tape and put row of button holes
on each side of the waist hens, those
on one side being cut across, the 9th
ers up and down, SO that the opening
won't cape when the taped buttons are
put in.
