COLD RECEPTION
IS PROPHES|ED
FOR Mr.. LIND
Mexicans mot Favorably I'm.
pressed With His Mission
CONSIDER HIM A MEDDLER
Unofficial Utterances That Huerta
Government Will Tolerate
No Interference

Mexico City, Aug 6.-lncreased an
tagonism has been aroused among
Mexiacns by reports that the object
of John Linds visit here is 10 con
suit with prominent MeXiCans and ad-
wise them that the only basis on
which Mexico will be recognized by
the United States is the elimination
of President Huerta. Earlier reports
to the effect that Mr.. Lind purposed
to deal with Huerta, perhaps by max
ing the direct suggestion that he re-
sign. were received with Indignation
by Mexican officials and the newly
published angle of his visit makes 1t
not improbable that he will be treat
ed with even less consideration than
otherwise would have been accorded
him
MeXicans familiar with internation-
al law are reluctant to believe that
Mr. Linds instructions are for him to
deal with others than the authorized
officials OF the de facto government.
These officials are still firm in their
assertion that no suggestions what
ever involving mediation or the resi-
gnation of Huerta will be acceptable.
Alleging thai the state of the coun-
try is such chat it will be impossible
to hold a presidential election Oct o.
the date previously set, the Catholic
convention agreed late tonight not to
nominate a candidate for the presi-
dency.
The debate developed an anti-Amer
lean speech by a delegate from the
federal district who charged that the
condition of the country was due to
the non-recognition OF the govern
ment by the United States. The
speech met with the approval OF a
large number of the delegates pres
ent, but ii was opposed by The leader
of the federal district organization,
who insisted that the attitude of the
administration OF Washington did not
represent the views of majority OF
the American people.
The decision of the Catholics not
to enter the political fight would APP
pear to remove the early hopes of
elections being held since a similar
action has been taken by the liberal
party. However there is well de-
fined belief here that President Huer-
Ia himself will become candidate
possibly of an independent group, and
in this case politicians believe he
would be likely to get the support of
the Catholics.

an was sent to the American lega
ton tonight
You may say to the minister of
foreign affairs that Gov. Lind comes
to Mexico on a mission of peace and
that the president feels sure his pres

published in sensational newspapers"

Meade Bank Cases Ended.

Deadwood.-With the sentencing of
Henry E. Perkins to the penitentiary
and the adjournment of court at Stur-
gis until September, the criminal cases
resulting frompthe failure year and
a half ago of the Meade County bank
at Sturgis, have virtually ended.
There remains but two more cases Tor
trial, both of them on minor charges.
with the possibility that one will plead
guilty to the technical violation of
the law and the state declines to prose-
cute the other. The Perkins case
was the main effort of the prosecution
which succeeded in securing convic-
ton. Frank Stewart OF Buffalo Gap,
one of the directors, and D. A. McPher-
son of Deadwood, former president,
each pleaded guilty to indictments
in excess of the legal limit, techni-
in excess of the legal limit, technii-
cal violation, while other indictments
against Mr.. Mcpherson were dismiss
ed. H. o. Anderson of Sturgis, a d.
rector, and Harold Cooper of Sioux
Falls, clerk, are both still under in
dictments similar to those against Nc
Pherson and Stewart, but there is a
strong possibility that neither will be
tried and that the prosecution will rest
satisfied with what it has already &C.
complished. Perkins is taking steps
to appeal to the supreme court.

Injured in a Runaway.

Belle Fourche-A runaway accident
on Owl Creek near the Brant ranch re-
suited in a badly bruised face, two
ribs cracks and numerous bruises
about the body for Mrs. A. H. Raltz,
two broken ribs for her father, George
w. Bagley, and number OF painful
bruises for Mrs. Bagley. The three
were coming from the Raltz ranch and
when near the Brant ranch their team
became frightened at an egg case near
the road. A runaway followed. the bug
gy tongue broke and the occupants
were all rendered unconscious, Mrs.
Raltz being the first to recover. She
administered what aid she could to her
father and mother and passing
neighbor took them back home, from
where a message was sent to Belle
Fourche for medical assistance.

Unconscious for Week.

Belle Fourche.-Chas. Arpan, q
young man employed on v. Bernard's
ranch on Indian creek, lay in ala I'M
conscious condition over week as
a result of an injury to the brain sus-
tanned while breaking broncho. Ar
pan was mounted on a particularly un-
ruly horse and the animal finally sue
ceeded in throwing the rider. The
young man was pitched over wire
fence, his head striking post with
sufficient force to render him uncon-
scious. All efforts to revive him
were unavailing, and DR.. CHASED of
this city was summoned. An exam
ination showed that the skull was not
fractured and as yet no operation has
been deemed necessary, as the in
jured man seems to be getting along
we'll enough, although still in a semi
conscious condition, probably from a
slight paralysis of the brain.

there will be left in charge of Sec
rotary O'Shaughnessy. Thus its status
would correspond to that of the Next
can embassy in Washington, which
is under the care of Secretary Algara.
Recognition of the Huerta regime
would be involved in the dispatch to
that country of new ambassador.
Important Announcement Due.
1t is believed in official and diplo-
matte circles that an important an
nouncement of the attitude of the
United States in the pending situation
will follow the ambassadors confer
ence with the president and Secretary
Bryan. The presidents action follow
ing closely the unofficial announce
ment that some of the foreign powers
which already have recognized the HUI
erta government were pressing for
some indication of this governments
attitude toward the continued disor-
ders in Mexico leads to that belief.
Petition Is Wired in.
Tucson, Ariz.-"We pray you not
to permit the nations Of. Europe to
make of the United States the collec-
ton agency to collect money that they
have advanced or have agreed to ad-
vance for the support of the murder
Gus Huerta government"
This petition was wired to President
Wilson by Ignacio Pesquiera, the con-
stitutionalist governor of Sonora.
The insurgent governor of Sonora
further asserts that Hureta is back
of European powers in urging a de-
claration of the attitude of the United
States towards Mexican affairs.
The Message.
The message to President Wilson
continues
These nations have advanced their
money with full knowledge that it
was to a usurping government. Now,
when Hureta and his followers find
they are being crushed, he appeals
to the powers which have advanced
money to him that they force the
United States to grant him recogni-
ton.
THE people of Mexico who have
been fighting and winning battles to
sustain the regular government pro-
test against this attempt to take from
them their hard won laurels. The
state troops have protected and al
ways will protect American interests
in Mexico"

cinity of what is known as the old Beu-

that were suffered severely: The
storm travelled from the northwest to
the southeast and seemed to spend the
greater part of its force on the farms
of v. v. Davis and N. j. Larsen, VINO

The hail stones were OF such size ana
came so thickly that crops on the two
farms were cut to pieces and pounded
into the ground. Their losses will DO
