Pennsylvania, which arrived yesterday
from Panama. made a special call at

sengers. some of them tourists. but
the majority were government en-
ployes from the canal zone Captain

DID SCHMIDT
Kill. HELEN
GREEN?
Girl Friend of Confessed
Slayer Of Anna Aumuller
MysteriousIy Disappears

NEW YORK, Sept. 1e.---The police
today We're trying to find Helen
Green, girl friend Of Hans Schmidt.
seIf-confessed murderer of Anna Au-
muller. She met Schmidt some time
last winter. Later she was frequently
seen in his company by persons who
recognized the photographs of Schmidt
as the man weil known in the night
life along the gay white way" as the
count who represented himself as
the son OF noble parents.
Some time ago Miss Green disap-
peared after declaring that she was
going to Chicago. She promised to
write to several Of i1er friends from
there, but no word has ever come
from her. Several letters from the
girl to Schmidt were found among
his effects but all of them were writ
ten while she was still in New York.
Cable dispatches today which es-
tablished the fact that Schmidt and
Edward A. Muret, the bogus dentist
and Schmidt's partner in the counter
feiting scheme, are cousins, declared
that Schmidt and Muret gave hyp-
motto exhibitions and spiritualistic
seances in Europe.
The facts contradict Schmidtss
statement that he is in no way re-
lated to Muret and that he had known
"the dentist for only ten months.
1t was stated today that while In
Germany and oher parts of Europe,
Schmidt and Muret We're partners In
crime, but that they quarreled short
time before Schmidt came to this
country. A reconciliation was brought
about. however. just before Schmidt
sailed for America.
For seevral days the police have
been searching for woman who, 1t is
believed. was in some way involved
in the crimes committed here by
Schmidt and Muret. An arrest was
expected today.

HUERTA AND
CONGRESS
SPLIT
Refusal Of Law Makers to
Confirm Cabinet Man May
:DepoSe General


MEXICO CITY, Sept. ia serious
Suarreh fostered. it is asserted. by
the dicta .oyial methods of President
I;uerta. has developed between the
national executive and congress.
After long and heated debate the
chamber OF deputies refused to con-
firm the appointment of Eduardo
Tama-iz. a member of the Catholis
party, as mir-ster of public instruc-
'ion. Approva. of cabinet appoint
ments by congress is necessary under
the constitution. Heretofore there
has been no such dissension. and the
present situation establishes q prece-
dent. The vote against confirmation
OF Tamariz was los to 90.
The Catholic party will probably con-
troll the next national election. despite
efforts of Huerta to get the electoral
machinery under his own domination.
The Catholic party will meet Sunday
and probably designate Foreign Min
lister Gamboa as its choice for presi-
dent
HUERTA TO QUIT, IS BELIEF
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19-That
Huerta is preparing to step out of the
race for the Mexican presidency next
month is indicated by dispatches
reaching Washington within the last
J . hours.
That General Felix Diaz. if elected
president, would be no more than a
pawn for Huerta is taken for granted
here Huerta's present policy seems
to be to surrender the place of power
without surrendering the power it
self and to bow to the pressure of the
American government while appar-
entity defying it before his people. As
head of The army Huerta always will
remain the most powerful man in
Mexico while he has a man supposedly
weak, Ike .Diaz, in the presidential
chair.

When the Frye comes back to this
port it will be converted to other uses
and will end its days either as a
tanker or a salmon carrier.
