CONTINUED CHAOS
IN MEXICO KEEPS
AMERICA ON EDGE

Washington, D. c., Sept. 16.-Marked
pessimism as to the Mexican situation
Is no longer concealed in administra-
ton circles. Whereas, for some weeks,
was extremely optimistic, the official
tone is discouraging. It is admitted on
all hands that nc progress is being
made to restore peace, that fighting Is
more prevalent than ever, and that an
explosion in the form of massacres OF
Americans may break forth any time,
thus making it impossible for the
president or congress to stay the force
of public sentiment here. The fact
President Wilson has cut short his
cation and is starting back from Cor

the Americans were in no danger at
all and would be protected by consti-
nationalist forces from marauding
bands.

The territory, through which the

London Sept. l3.-The new Japanese
battle cruiser Kongo. which is now near

of a new and secret design. These tor
pedoes. a 2l-inch weapon officially known
as the V. l., are as great an improvement
upon the British Admiralty's Hardcastle
weapon as that torpedo was upon its
cold air predecessors. Both are propelled
by heated air. but while the Hardcastle
had a range of 5000 yards. the V. L. can
travel from 1000 to 1900 yards at a
speed OF forty-eight knots.
The trials OF the Japanese order were
made under the personal supervision OF
two officers of the Kongo, and the tests
were carried on with the greatest secrecy.
