begin to fall slowly tomorrow.

the unusual prevalence of prostrating

tributed to make the blood poor, thin

I accuse Mr.. Wilson that. although

signed their designations, thus
breaking the promise Of which the

thereof. he refused to put them un-

himself up In the politics Of Mexico

communication Of General Huerta.
he openly advised him to have the
Mexican congress authorize his acts
This was badly taken by the great
majority OF Mexicans. especially as
the government Of the United States
had not recognized the change Of gov
ernment In Mexico.
I accuse ambassador Wilson OF
using means among the members Of
the American colony OF this capital
OF Mexico TO have the government at
Washington keep him at his present
post. There Is no doubt that this Will
be repulslve to most Mexicans after
the part played by Mr. Wilson In the
last political tragedy in our country.

in peril Of my life. hoping for justice
from the American people and the

ESTIMATE OF LOSS

Marooned Persons Still Being
Brought Into Evansville,
Ind, From Points Along
Ohio River.

AFRO, Ill, April 5.-Cairo now is
passing what is supposed to be
the crisis of the flood. The river
practically is stationary, but is
expected TO remain at an extremely
high stage for several days.
Grave danger still menaces the city
from the seepage through the levees,
or from the results that might follow
a high wind which would dash the
waters against the levee.
The local weather bureau said that
the passing Of the Ohio waters into
the Mississippi through Cache creek
and the breaking Of levees in Missouri
are what relieved the great pressure on
the Cairo levees and kept the water
from going much higher on the Cairo
gauge,
