SPRECKELS
OPPOSES FOX
FOR POSTMASTER

Washington, d. c., Aug 20.-Rudolpl
the appointment of Thomas Fox as
postmaster at Sacramento. Calf,
talked with President Wilson again
today and appeared before senate
snb committee. He declined to dis
cuss his interview with the president
beyond saying he had expressed his
| opposition to Fox.
Senator Martin, a member of sub
committee. investigating the Fox ap
pointmert, talked briefly with the
president. White House officials de
titude.
Before the committee Spreckels
charged that Fox was a boss domi-
mated by the Southern Pacific railroad
and intimated that FoX's endorsement
by immigration Commissioner Cami-
netti had something to do with the
Diggs-C -Caminetti white slave cases. He
presented affidavits and letters from
and Stockton. declaring Foxs conAr-
nation would be blow at clean gov
ernment and return to the domina
ton of machine politics in California
and the nation.
Spreckels referred to certain dates
in the white slave cases and drew an
inference because of their relation to
the date of Caminettis endorsement
of Fox.
Senator Lee asked if Mr. Spreckels
charged that Caminettis endorsement
had been procured through desire OF
the father to secure Foxs support dur
Jig the trial of his son. Spreckles was
before finishing his state
ment and the point was not developed
Spreckels attacked the Endorsement
of Fox by Secretary Lane as prompted
by personal motives.
"'Political reformers seem to for.
get that such men as Fox must be rec.
ognized,' Spreckels quoted Secretary
Lane as replying to a protest against
Fox.
This whole fight started last May
when we cleaned out this Spreckels
outfit, body, soul and breeches, by over
1000 majority" declared Fox to the
as Spreckels concluded
These objectors are all Republicans.

STATES PUTS IT UP TO PRES.
IDENT WILSON FOR FURTHER
ACTION.
negotiations MAY
Be DISCONTINUED

Washington, d. C., Aug. 20.-Fur
1her negotiations looking to a peace
ful settlement of the Mexican situa
ton, followed provisional President
lIuertas rejection of President Viii
sons proposals as submitted by his
personal representative, John Lind
oud appear now to depend on Wash
i;4gton. If the United States govern
ment is willing to reopen the con-
troversy, there is every reason to be-
lieve that the Mexican government
V ould be willing.
An official statement from FREDERICK
Camboa, the Mexican foreign min
lister says that the negotiations be-
tween Mr. Lind and the Mexican gov
ernment have not been entirely brok'
ell Off, but that they are being CON
tnued contidentially."
MeXico's reply to the United States,
which couched from the diplomatic
language, was definite rejection of
/ resident Wilson'S proposal as pre-
sented by John Lind.
Unless the Washington government
sees fit to submit new proposition
Il is considered that the negotiations
will be closed
The Mexican government yesterday
sent to each Of the foreign legations
in Mexico City, a note in which 1t
was stated that the negotiations with
Governor Lind were continuing in IA
cordial manner, and denying that Min
lister IIrrutia had made any statement
which might be regarded as an ulti'
liatum to the United States.
Personal relations between Presi-
dent Wilson's emissary and the
of the government here are
friendly. Mr. Lind last night sent the
Mexican foreign office message OF
over the loss of life in tha
explosion at Tacubaya. where nearly
one hundred persons were killed.
No Discussion in Senate.
A disposition to refrain from any
discussion of Mexican affairs was evi.
dent in the senate again today and
session of the foreign relations com
mittee was devoted to other affairs.
When resolutions, introduced by
Senator Penrose, asking for informa-
ION about the Mexican situation
came up automatically for considera-
ton, the senate put them over in.
definitely. The PoindeXter resolutions
went the same way That action was
Ia keeping with the understanding
reached yesterday by Republicans not
to press a Mexican debate on the sen.
ate for the present.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 2O,-Still
without the complete text OF the
liuerta governments note rejecting
President Wilson's suggestion for
peaceful adjustment of the Mexican
revolution, administration officials to-
day received further advices describ
ling as cordial the continuation Of re
lations between Iluerta officials and
John Lind.
That the United States will not re-
cede from its original proposal that
it cannot recognize any regime unless
Il constitutional election is held, was
reiterated by government officials who
discussed the situation with Presi.
dent Wilson. A policy of noninterfer.
ence in Mexico by continuing to-deny
arms to both sides and withdrawal
iof Americans from the troubled zone
is likely to be put into effect though
! in some administration quarters there
was noticeable talk Of drastic meas
iures.
| 1t is the opinion OF some officials
that the United States should pre-
pare itself for emergencies. President
Wilson has been opposed to any big
Loot hn i,,y of
the United States should be mis-inter
preted. Other officials take the view,
however. that precautionary measures
are necessary. Secretary Garrison is
away on an inspection trip. but Acting
Secretary Brenkenridge is keeping the
president informed Of the strength of
the army on the frontier and the gen
eral situation on the border.

Great Work of Government
In Saving Wayward Girls

San Diego Union: That the depart

government has more than 900 de-
tectives working at present on the
white slave traffic was the statement
made by George Scarborough, author
of ''The Lure" now playing at the
Spreckles, as he sat in the theatel
office last night.
This fact is not generally known
said Scarborough, ''but | make it pub
lie in order that the public may ap-
preciate how serious the United
States government considers the Whit
slave evil. And if the plans it has
under consideration are carried OUT,
in due time there will be a federal
agent in every town in the United
States with a population Of 1000 ~
more.
There is now being compiled a card
index Of every panderer, every cadet
and procurer, every madame, every
owner Of property being used for pur-
poses of prostitution and every pros
titute in the United States. Every
madame will be required to inform
this agent of every girl that arrives in
her house and where she came from,
or that departs and where she goes
Inside of two hours after she arrives
in town, she must have reported to
the agent and have given her name
and history, which must tally in every
detail with the description on file with
the authorities in the place where she
has just left. When the girl goes out
of town her history will be telegraph

FRESNO, Sept. 18-Assemblyman
w. F. Chanler has returned to Fresno
after completing with the other men,
bers of committee appointed by the
last session of the legislature to in
suect state highways in California,
the first lap of its trip of irvestiga-
ton. The other members who made
the trip were State Senators Benja-
min F. Rush and Prescott F. Coggs-
well and ASsemblyman A. 6 kuch,
together " III State Engineer McClure
and c. l.. Scavey of the state boar #
contrels
While we are not ready ID make
"a report" said Assemblyman Chand-
Yer, Il believe the state should either
concentrate its care on a few good
roads and properly attend to them,
OF abandon those others which are
only used by solitary rancher or 50
a few times a week.
81 don't believe that the state
should spend money every year jn
keeping up roads with a 80 per cent
grade, as such money spent is practi-
cally wasted.
at is probable that we will not
make a report of our findings and
recommendations until the next ses-
sion Of the Legislature.
81 will say this, however, that we
found some roads in poor condition
that should be made passable for
teams and machines on account of the
traffic over them. We also found sev-
eral roads that were in good condi
tiOn that receive but little wear and
tear, owing to the light traffic over
them.
"Our next trip will be to investigate te
road conditions in Imperial valley and
the southern part of the state. We
expect to make this trip some time
next fall.
"The portion of the Kings rive,
canyon road that has ben built we
found in good condition. The portion

"Of course, there is no law to en-
force this, but the madames will obey.
With an Indictment by federal grand
jury hanging over the heads of nearly
every one of them, why shouldn't
they? If they don't, there will surely
be something popping" and Scar
borough brought his fist down on the
table with a bang.
Tall and lean, with a cleancut but
rather lantern jawed face, Scar
borough reels off the most astonish-
ing statements in quiet, matter-of-
fact way that makes one wonder how
any man can remain calm and cool
in the contemplation of such knowl
edge Of the underworld as revolves in
this mans brain. He has seen these
things so often they are everyday
facts to him.
You may be surprised when | tel
you that since the passage Of the
Mann anti-white slave law two years
ago, the convictions and imprison-
ment of white slavers have been
greater than all other crimes against
the federal laws combined There are
at present half dozen politicians do
ing time in the federal prison at
Leavenworth, Kas., for white slave of
fenses, and nearly dozen more in
the government penitentiary at At
lanta, Ga.

the thirty-two mile road that is to
connect the canyon with the General
Grant national park.
"On our Investigating trip we
crossed the Sierras six times and
slept out of doors twice. We covered
$50 miles of state highway and trav-
eled altogether about 1900 miles IN
eleven days.
Leaving here Tuesday morning,
September 2, we went up Kings river
canyon and investigated conditions
| there. Here we camped out over night
and left early the following morning
for Mojave.
eve then went up the east side of
the Sierras and took in the Mono lake
basin country. This road, which will
connect the east side of the state with
the Yosemite, is not yet completed.
From here we went to Independ-
ence and came back across the noun
tains on the road to Sonora. We
then went back across the mountains
into the Cafaveras Big Trees country
and over the Markleyville road. We
camped out another night on this
road.
Going on to Woodfort where we
stopped a short time, we made prepar-
ations for another trip across the

to Placerville.
"Our next trip over the mountains
was to Tallac on Lake Tahoe. The
state is now building a road along
the west side of the lake and we were
the second machine to make the trip
over it, the first automobile preceding
US about twenty-four hours.

over the Emigrant pass by way Of
Auburn to Sacramento.
"The trip, in my opinion, was well
worth the cost to the state, as it gives
