FELIX DIAz VERY Confident
CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENCY OF
MEXICO SAYS HE'LL WIN.
Chief Aid of Huerta Says the Present
Executive Is to Retire After
Election.

Paris, Sept. 22.-General Felix DiaZ
of Mexico has arrived here from Biar-
ritz, where he has been the guest Of
his uncle, former President Porfirio
DiaZ, for several days.
The general told the Associated
Press that he had seen the dispatch
from Mexico City in the Paris news
papers announcing that he had been
summoned back to Mexico by Presi-
dent Huerta, but that this was all he
knew about the matter Thus far he
said he had received no order of re-
call, but should hold himself in readi-
ness to start to Mexico at a moments
notice.
Il am soldier and always am pre-
pared to go anywhere at any time in
obedience to my superiors when I am
ordered" General Diaz said.
General Diaz said that when he was
ordered recently to go to Japan he
had just two days in which to get
ready. His instructions then we're to
go to Toxic and return as soon as
possible, so as to be in Mexico be-
fore the presidential election took
place.
Asked if President Huerta would
support his candidacy for chief ex-
ecutive of Mexico, General Diaz re-
piled that General Huerta would take
no interest in the election beyond see
ing that it was properly carried out.
He was confident, however, of the
success of his candidacy, for which
he declared his friends in Mexico
were now working hard.
He also was optimistic with regard
to the situation in general in Mexico
and thought that everything now
pointed to the early establishment
of peace.
General Diaz said he left his uncle,
former President Porfirio Diaz, at
Biarritz in surprisingly good health
and vigor for man entering his Saith
year. The only thing that troubled
the ex-president was increasing deaf
ness. He said his uncle would return
to Mexico some time after calm had
been restored, but as a resident only,
declaring that he would not re-enter
the political arena.

QUANTITY IS LESS;
REVENUES GREATER
SHORT CROPS WILL PROVE
BLESSING TO FARMERS
AND PUBLIC.
PRICES EXTREMELY GOOD
Less Labor and Expense to Harvest,
Also Decrease Boon to Railroads
That Handle
Crops.

Chicago, Sept 10. - With total
quantity of agricultural products 22
per cent less than in 1912, the years
gross revenue for the farmers will be
per cent more than last year, &C.
cording to a bulletin issue by farm
magazine.
Total value will be $5,O00,000,0 or
$3.50, 100000 more than 4 year ago.
The reason for this extraordinary
condition is, of course, the high prices
per unite for several Of the large
cereal crops. Corn, for example, will
show a total volume of 20 per cent
under that of 1912, but with value
AZ per cent better, will produce for the
farmers $10O,0O0,00 more than year
ago.
"The wealth the farmers will re-
ceive for their decreased tonnage"
says the report, "also has these two
decided advantages: Less labor and
expense will be required for harvest
ing and marketing the crops this year,
at O time when farm help is scarce
and high.
"Only the decrease of about 50,000,-
900 tons in the weight of these staples
will enable American railways to move
the crops of 1913 without a veri-
table breakdown of the transportation
system in view of the heavy tonnage
of other freight and of passenger traf-
fic caused by the resumption of good
times.
'sThe outcome of the agricultural
season. therefore, is profoundly bene-
fetal to industry, commerce and fin
ance, taking the country as whole,
although certain individuals and limit
ed sections have been hard hit by the
drouth.
''The shortage in new corn is not a
disaster. 1t is blessing in disguise.
For with over 400,000,000 bushels of
old corn on hand Oct. /, the aggregate
supply of maize this autumn will be
some 2,850,0O0,000 bushels. This Just
about equals the corn supply following
the harvest of 1911-only two years
ago, when the yield was 1850, 900
and the supply of old corn was then
only about one-fourth as large as
now"
The wheat output will be the great
est in quantity and value in the coun-
try's history

DElrf INTO PAST OF PRIEST
POLICE OF THE OPINION SLAYER
PLANNED OTHER MURDERS.
Suspicious Photographs Of Death Ger
tificates Found Among Posses
sions of Hans Schmidt.

New York, Sept. 22.-Detectives
delving further into the past of Hans
Schmidt, the priest who murdered
Anna Aumuller, sought to fatho4n
what was in his mind last April when
he photographed the death certificate
OF Robert Smith, one OF his parish
toner's.
Photographs Of this certificate and
of blank forms issued by the Board
of Health were found in Schmidt's
trunk. The find led the police to be-
lieve that the priest either was max
ing preparations then to dispose of
the Aumuller girl or planned other
murders. They questioned him about
this certificate, but his answers gave
them little information. The priest
has eyinced a tendency lately to an
swer all questions with the declara,
ton that he was directed in his acts
by God and Abraham"
To the belief that Schmidt planned
other murders, the police are more
inclined than to the opinion that he
was laying plans last April to be rid
of the Aumuller girl.
They say that a skilled forger like
the prisoner would have been able to
have the bodies of victims buried i'm
any cemetery by filling out counter
felt burial blanks and forging the sig
natures. They believe that Schmidt
caused the blanks to be photographed
in order to obtain exact copies so
that he might have duplicates struck
off in blank.
Inspector Faurot announced that he
was looking for another woman in
the case. lie gave no details of what
her connection with the matter might
be. The only other woman whose
name has been thus far associated
with Schmidts is known as Helen
Green from letter found in Schmidt's
trunk in which she said she could
not live without him. Her name was
not signed to the letter, but the adj
dress and telephone number led the
police to an apartment house where
a woman by that name had lived UNI
til about month previously. There
it was said that she had gone to
Chicago and that several letters had
been forwarded to her, none of which
had come back.
The finding Of the photographed
blanks in Schmidts trunk caused the
detectives to dig deeper into the past
of Ernest Muret, the self-styled den.
list, implicated with Schmidt in coun-
terfeiting. From London came re-
ports that Muret had been a fugitive
from justice since April 30, 1911, when
he was charged with having falsely
represented himself as DIR. Ernest
Stein, medical practitioner. Thus
far Muret has denied all knowledge
of the manner in which Anna Aumul-
Ter met her death.

BADGER Site Not Selected.

IF Wisconsin is to have site for

ton in San Francisco other than be-
hind the stables of the 10000 troops
which will be quartered there. imme-

BIG BAR OF GOLD FOUND
Fountain City Mans Discovery
May Be Worth
$4,000.

Fountain City, Wis, Sept. ga
bar of metal, believed to be gold,
weighing 20 pounds and estimated to
be worth $4,000, was found near
here by Herman Pulitzer, proprietor
of hotel here. Pulitzer picked the
piece of metal out of the underbrush
while walking UP steep hill, and
carried it home,
After the metal had laid on the
barn floor for three days, r. r. Kemp
ter of La Crosse, deputy revenue col
lector, examined it and expressed the
opinion it was bar Of gold. Uni
versity authorities at Madison have
been asked to make an assay.
The robbery of Burlington ex-
press car containing a large shipment
of gold on the way from Seattle to
Philadelphia, 20 years ago, has been
recalled as solution of the mystery.

CURRENCY BILL IS
PUT UP TO SENATE
LOWER HOUSE APPROVES THE
MEASURE BY VOTE OF
2a6 TO "a.
MINORITY MEMBERS LEND AID
Twenty-four Republicans and Four
teen Progressives Join in With
Majority-Senate Caucus
Holding Hearings.

Washington, Sept. 20.-By deci-
sive vote of 2S6 to 81 the house of
representatives started the currency
bill on it's way to the statute books.
Twenty-four Republicans and IA Pro-
gressives joined with the Democrats
in voting for the bill.
With this overwhelming house ma
iority and the endorsement of Presi-
dent Wilson behind it, the measure
was sent over to the senate.
There it was referred to the bank
ing and currency committee before
which hearings on the subject already
are in progress. The committee may
not be ready to report for several
weeks.
Eliminates Present System.
The measure would eliminate the
present American bank note system
under which banks issue currency
against government bonds and estab-
lish a currency to be issued by IL
federal reserve banks, based on sound
commercial paper, which the govern
ment assumes the responsibility of
redeeming in gold. or lawful money.
It would place practically every
phase of banking under the control
of a federal reserve board of seven
members to be appointed by the presi-
dent and a council of bankers which
would have only advisory powers.
How Administered.
The system would be administered
through the reserve banks, situated
in IL geographical divisions of the
country, capitalized at about $4,000
900, which capital must be subscribed
by the banks in the reserve district.
At the eleventh hour the house wrote
into the bill disclaimer of any in
tention to alter the gold money stand
ard fixed by law.
Ten days of earnest consideration
in the house failed to alter the bill
in any material particular and it
passed virtually as drawn by Repre-
sentative Glass of Virginia, chairman
of the house banking and currency
commission, after conferences with
Senator Owen, chairman of the SEN
ate committee, Secretary McAdoo of
the treasury department and the
president Throughout the debate
Republicans and Progressives vigor-
.ousIy denounced the methods en-
ployed by the Democrats in framing
the bill, and in perfecting it's details
In caucus. The Democratic lines held
firm, however, and no minority
amendments we're adopted.
On final passage but three Demo
Gratis voted against the bill
Senate Considers Bill.
Washington.-A number of invited
experts are still to be heard on the
currency bill, and it is expected the
public discussion of the measure will
continue until early next week. The
bill will then be taken up for dis
cussion within the committee room.

r. E. Noyes Is Again President.

The Wisconsin Daily League of
Publishers listened to several inter
esting talks along the line of coop
GRAFTON Of publishers and between
publishers and advertisers at a
luncheon given in the red room of the
Hotel Pfster Milwaukee.
The luncheon was preceded by a
business meeting at which routine
business was transacted, officers elect
ed and new members added to the
association.
The old officers were reelected as
follows: President, Frank e. NOyes
of the Marinette Eagle and Star; vice
president, o. j. Hardy of the Osh-
kosh NOrthwesterl; secretary ana
treasurer, H. H. Bliss of the James
Vile Gazette. The following papers
were admitted to membership: Mer-
rill Herald, Neenah Times and
StoughtOn Hub.
The members at the luncheon
heard an address by Jason Rogers OF
the New York Globe, who discussed
the value of cooperation between
publishers Mr.. Rogers pointed out
ways in which publishers could work
together to great advantage in cut
| ting down expense and saving money
which now goes to outsiders.
He advocated the ACCESSIBILITY of
ascertaining the exact cost to the
publisher of every line of advertising
which went into his paper. Then he
could, the speaker said, know wheth-
er he was getting what the advertis-
ing was worth or not.
Other speakers were Henry Brock.
bank of the Bernard Stern company,
Milwaukee; ]. L. Sturtevant of Wau-
sau, F. ]. Rickert, secretary of the
Wholesale Grocers' association, and
President c. j. Dexter of the same
association.
Mr. Sturtevant said newspaper adj
vertising was worth much more than
national magazine or periodical adj
yertising. Surveys, ne said, had
proven this beyond question. There
should be cooperation, he asserted,
between the newspapers and the manu-
facturers and wholesalers.
Mr. Rickert said there was no
question that local advertising assist
ed the distributors. He Endorsed the
statements of Mr. Sturtevant in ro-
gard to the relative value of newspa-
per and magazine advertising. The
interests of the newspapers and the
| distributors. he said, were identical
Mr.. Dexter briefly Endorsed what had
been said by other speakers.
In addition to the members of the
association there were present at the
luncheon wholesalers, business men
and publishers of Milwaukee dailies.

fears of supposedly counterfeit nick
els, it was stated by Secret Service
officials, are disturbing many people
throughout the country. Complaints
of counterfeiting are pouring into the
