MEXICO BETTER
THANIN MONTHS
STEADY IMPROVEMENT SHOWN,
ACCORDING TO TELEGRAPHIC
ADvfcEs RECEIVED IN PENsA-
COLA BY MEXICAN CONSUL.

Conditions in Mexico are rapidly i'm
pPoving according to Geographic ad-
vices received in Pensacola by Next
can Consul Diaz which state that some
OF the cities taken by the rebels are
again in the hands of the government.
DIR. Diaz is naturally well pleased with
the receipt of such news and especially
IS indications are that the government
is preparing to drive the rebels from
Monclave and Matamoras. These are
the only cities now in possession of
the rebels in that military zone and
when retaken by the federals will be a,
long step towards squelching the re-
bellion.
The telegram received yesterday by
Consul Diaz from the Mexican secre-
tary of state through the consul-gen-
eral at New York follows:
"A large column of soldiers. under the
command of General Delgado has re-
taken the city OF Zacatecas without
the necessity of firing gun. The
loyal governor of the state has re-
sumed his active position. Two other
large columns left yesterday from
Mexico city to re-enforce the Division
Del Bravo (the division along the
Bravo river) to take back from the
rebel forces the cities Of Monclava and
Matamoros, that have been in the
lands of the Carran cistas."

done in the past and what is being
done here now to oppose the sugar
tariff reduction.
Friends of Oxnard and Palmer de-
clared an effort would be made to have
the senate limit the scope of the COM
mittee's investigation.
CHARACTER OUTLINED
The character of the publicity beet
sugar men sought was outlined in one
of the unsigned letters i'm the Hamlin
correspondence addressed to Sidney
BalIou, an active figure in the Hawai-
ian sugar organization. 1t said the
beet sugar men had made a contract
with the Press Service Company at
$4,000 month for publicity.
They guarantee the publication OF
$4,000 lines a month of matter per-
tanning to the sugar industry" the
letter added.
Another unsigned letter dated May
., 1912, addressed to Sidney Ballou
said II believe that our greatest OPP
portunity for publicity will arise in
connection with the national campaign
The republican committee will of ne
cessity be compelled to make the tar
iff an issue and the fight will probably
center around sugar.
I'VE are in touch with those who are
preparing the republican campaign
book and the sugar question will be
handled subject to our approval. In
fact the matter is being furnished by
us. As soon as the conventions are
over, it is our purpose to get in touch
with the campaign managers with a
view to having their speakers fully
posted on the sugar question.
I'm fact ! am personally of the opin-
ion that it would be well for us to
put few good men on the campaign
committee who will give particular at
tention to sugar. l believe that more
people are to be reached in this way
than in any other.
WILEYS FRIENDSHIP.
You asked me particularly with
reference to DIR. Wiley. AS you were
advised, the doctor made us a propo-
sition for lectures which was accepted
When he got into harness however, he
found that he had undertaken more
than he could perform and asked to
be released. We did not deem it wise
to insist as we felt highly desirable
to have DIR. Wiley's friendship and CO.
operation. He had agreed however to
deliver a few lectures. BY looking
carefully after the publicity end of
these lectures we believe We can Sc
cure some good results.
Generally speaking we expect to
avail ourselves of any avenue of pub
licity where the results seem to justify
the expenditure"
Another letter objected to by Yerkes
was unsigned, addressed to Henry T.
Oxnard and dated at Chicago in April,
1907. 1t said in part:
Major Cove is showing anxiety
about either buying or starting a
paper as well as securing the columns
of an influential Eastern daily and a
large line of patent insides'
MIR. Ceilings is very anxious about
the Taft situation and hopes that there
will be some way to make it known
that there will be great doubt about
his ability to carry such states as
California, Idaho. Utah, Colorado and
that if we can't head him off, we
might be able to get a promise relative
to the sugar and tobacco industries"
