WILSON SAYS
LET HUERTA
HANG SELF
President Favors Policy of
Giving Dictator Time to
Eliminate Himself

journment at this time, desiring to
have the law makers in session to re-
ceive a message from him should de-
Eelopments make such action advis-
able.
At the close of the cabinet meeting
today all members declined to dis
cuss the Mexican situation.
The Carranza forces also are NOV
ing on Mazatlan, an important port
in Sinaloa. With Mazatlan in their
could import arms and ammunition
from Japan
LET HUERTA HANG HIMSELF
Let Huerta hang himself" !" This is
the keynote of the present admins
tration policy toward the Mexican
dictator. 1t was learned today that
even if the Mexican congress meets
and grants valuable concessions this
government can take no action. Re-
ports from Doctor Hale, now con-
ferring with Carranza in Sonora,
show that the northern rebels have
a strong, compact organization,
strongly armed.
Although President Wilson is
keeping strong patrol of troops
along the border and maintaining
powerful war feet in Mexican wa
ters, only the massacre of Americans
would precipitate Intervention in
Mexico, according to the present
fixed policy. President Wilson be-
lieves that Huerta can not hold out
much longer against the pressure
from without that besets him.

REDWOOD Of
PAST AGES
FOUND
U. of C. Has Preserved Speci-
mems of Trees That Lived
100000 Years Ago

OF greater scientific interest than
the famous petrified forest of the
southwest are a few bits of redwood,
perfectly preserved, which thrived in
the Berkeley hills hundreds OF thou
sands, of years ago, perhaps million
years back in prehistoric time.
The precious splinters are possessed
by DR.. John C. Merriam, professor OF
paleontology In the University of CAL
ifornia. They were found in two
places, one near Mussel rock, the other
some distance away, where gigantic
trees had fallen and been broken up.
The wood neither decayed nor petri-
fed. but has retained its grain and
markings.
Professor Merriam is using the spe-
cimens to prove to his classes that
wood may keep for uncounted ages.
He whittles from the pieces, the shaw
ings falling from his jacknife exactly
as from freshly hewn redwood.

OFF|CER SHOT BY
YEGC SUSPECTS
Men Arrested on Suspicion
Turn on Policeman; Bullet
Over Heart; Thugs Escape

Policeman William Kruger of the
southern station is at the central
emergency hospital with a bullet
wound near his heart as the result of
his attempt last night to arrest three
.yeggmen" he found lurking in the
rear of the New Western hotel at $50
Natoma street.
Three shots were fired point blank
at the officer. One of the bullets
struck him near the heart, passing
through a thick leather pocketbook.
Tt is believed that this slight obstruc-
tion saved Krueger's life. The thugs
escaped.
Krueger found the men in the rear
of the hotel. He placed the men
under arrest, but when he started to
march them out of the building one
of them lodged under Krueger's arm,
at the same time drawing a revolver
and firing three shots. AS he fell TO
the sidewalk Kruger emptied his
weapon after the running men.
A suspect was arrested early this
morning. but upon an investigation
the police set him free.

mother of Edna Wallace Hopper, died
in 1901. leaving a vast estate in Brit
ish Columbia worth about $4,000, 900.

ton brothers are members of the firm

amount of money in his possession.

They ask for an order directing
Thomas Pennington to make an ac-
count of the estate and to make a
showing OF all moneys handled dur
ing their mothers lifetime and after
her death.

John Pennington made an unsuccess-
full attempt to GUST their brother as
executor. Thomas Pennington main

New York's position as the worlds
largest producer of manufactures is
pretty generally eclipsed by the ON
portance popularity attached to Wall
street and the Stock Exchange, to the
Great White Way" and its attrac-
tions, to Tammany Hall, and to such
other features which, though distin-
gushing, may be classed as incidental
to the city's real growth and great
ness. 1t may be hard to realize, but
is none the less true, that there are
in operation within the city's limits
as many as $4,000 factories, employ
ing-in round figures-650,OO 900 oper-
atives and 10000 office workers, on
pay rolls aggregating over $500, ,O0O.-
900 per annum. These factories an
nualiy produce goods to the value of
over - 800, 100000, of which approx
imately 100000 is paid for ma
terials, leaving about $1,000, 900, 900
as the value added by manufacture or
the yealth actually produced by 76O,-
600 workers. In other words, New
York City makes more merchandise
than does any state in the Union; in
fact, its total production is at least
five-sixth as large as the aggregate
of the six New England states, which
section is popularly supposed to lead
all others in manufactures. Says a
New England manufacturer who is
moving his large works to New York
Il thought such a large business as
mine would attract some attention, but
find that it is so small compared
with the manufacturing done in New
York City that it will not attract the
least bit of notice; it will be only a
very small drop in very large
bucket The largest industry in New
York is the manufacture of clothing,
in which alone are engaged more than
1000 factories and approximately
10000 wage earners; the total value
of products amount to $3.50, 900, 900,
of which $S5O,OOO,OOO covers femi-
nine apparel, leaving only $3O,OOO,-
600 for mere man.
