Up Cement Worker.

st. Louis, Mo, Feb. 24.-John ThoIt,
thirty-nine years old, employed at the
Portland Cement company's works at
Prospect Hill, is being treated at the
City hospital for "cemented" nose.
The hospital physicians say that his
case has no parallel. Both nostrils are
stopped up with cement, making his
breathing through the nostrils impos-
sible.
The hospital physicians have begun
chipping the cement to remove the OBJ
struction. Tholt says he fed hopper
at the mill and inhaled the fine cement
dust.
1t was found that the dust had been
moistened and hardened on the mem.
brane as though grown there.

government and other measures To
which the administration was unal-
tcrabiy opposed. When that became
known IL was said that the accept
ance OF his resignation was only n
matter Of time.
Mr.. Wilson after leaving the state
department dictated the following
statement:
- believe that the President aud
the Secretary of State In their con
siderati0n Of the question are ac'u-
ated by the highest patriotism and
with the hest Intentions tn both

sent the views Of IS per cen; OF the
Americans and foreigners in Mexico.
II became known that the ambas-
aador's conference with Secretary
Bryan at times became heated and
that u disagreement arose over the
for NAL acceptance OF the resignation.
The ambassador had expected that
the President would commend him
for his activity at his post on the
occasion OF various emergencies and
that some mention should be made
approving his record. Secretary Bry-
an carried the suggestion to TIL,
President, but on returning for
further conference with the ambas-
sador. announced the resignation IN
practically the same form as agreed
on earlier in the day. though special
provision was made for the protec-
tion OF the Ambassadors personal eff
fccts in Mexico City during his alb
sence.
1t is the wish OF the administra-
tion that Mr. Wilson should not re-
turn to Mexico City at this time as
he is factor in the political situa-
tion.
