INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION.

San Diego, Cal, Aug. Ii, Though
this is the largest city on the Mexican
Yankee boundary line, wars and ru-
mors of wars in Mexico have affected it
about as much as if it were located on
the Canadian line. Business and social
life goes on just as if there were no
turmoil below the imaginary line. Only
the arrival of regular steamers with
refugees from the Mexican ports south
of the line remind that there are
troubles down in that "poco tempo"
country.
AS matter of fact San Diego is too
busy building wharves, docks, piers,
enlarging her harbor facilities, water
system, streets and her business blocks,
to say nothing Of her big Panams-Cal-
ifornia Exposition to pay any attention
to rumors from the southern republic.
Mexican and Central American stea-
mers have arrived and departed on reg
ular schedules ever since the first out
break OF trouble in Mexico three years
ago. The only possible difference these
troubles can make in San Diego is to
deprive the exposition of Mexican
exhibit and this is not conclusion yet
as much work is being done now and
has been done already to get this ex-
hibit together. Mexican authorities in
control from time to time have none of
them declared their country will be
unrepresented at the exposition. Cen
trail America already has provided a
large amount of exhibit material.
AT the exposition grounds rapid pro-
gress is being made on the buildings
and six of them are now under way or
completed. The latest to be started is
the California State building, struct-
ure that will cost a quarter of million
dollars, one of the most stately architec-
tural features of the entire Pacific Coast
OF reinforced concrete it will stand for
all time to come.
San Diego, though only IA miles from
the Mexican border, probably is less
affected by the mexican situation
than any other city on the entire inter
national border line, and, judging from
the increase in bank clearings and build
ing permits, is less affected by the sin
ancial situations" than any other cit.
in the country.

Freight RATE PROTEST
TO Be INVESTIGATED
Federal Official Assigned to Probe the
Complaint Made by Balt-
more Organization.
ILLEGAL CONTROL is ALLEGED

The efforts of the merchants Of WASH
ington and Baltimore To pring about a
reduction OF freight rates were given
impetus yesterday, when q, Carroll Todd,
special assistant to the Attorney General.
was assigned to investigate the com
plant OF the Merchants and Manufac-
turers' Association OF Baltimore against
the New Haven and the Pennsylvania
railroads. which Is similar in some re-
spects to complaints OF local men.
1t Is alleged that illegal combinations
control the freight rates between Balti-
more, philadelphia, New York, New
Haven, Providence and Boston, through
the control of water lines.
The complaint against the New Haven
now Is being Investigated, but in the
Pennsylvania matter the Department OF
Justice has requested more specific in
formation relative to the ability OF the
road to control rates north of Baltimore
by means of its water carriers,
The contention of the petitioners is
that the all-rail, all-water, and rail
and water rates, being substantially
the same, the facts indicate that there
may be a combination to control rates
in defiance of the Sherman antitrust
act.
The Attorney General called the at
tention of the petitioners to the Pana-
ma Canal act, passed August "a, which
calls for railroads to dissolve any
holdings they have in steamship COM
panies using the canal. The Interstate
Commerce Commission is authorized TO
carry cut the provisions of the act

NOT DAY GIRL
Mother and Second Brother
Reject Older Brothers
Identification Of Torso.
POLICE ARE NOW AT SEA
Little Hope Of Solving Mystery Unless
Waters Give Up Missing
Head.

New York, Sept R-The Identification
OF the dismembered body OF the girl
victim of the Cliffside murder mystery
as that of Annette Day, of Brooklyn,
was rejected today by the mother and
second brother of Miss Day. The police
now confess themselves completely baf-
fed Clew after clew has been run down,
only-to prove worthless. Little hope is
held out either for identification\o of the
victim or the detection Of the murderer,
unless the waters OF the bay or river
should give up the missing head and
other portions Of the body. for which
diligent search is being made.
Robert Cummings, an Alpine On. j.
boatman, told the police OF Yonkers to-
day OF a mysterious stranger who asked
TO be rowed across the river from Alpine
to Yonkers about two weeks ago. The
stranger carried a suit case Of which he
seemed to be very careful. Although
the regular launch ferryboat was about
to start. the man had insisted on being
rowed across. The man said he had been
visiting friends in Alpine, but Cummings,
who is well acquainted there, had not
been able to trace him 20 any house In
the village. The police are investigating
this story in the hope Of finding another

Following the denial by Mrs. Day that
the mutilated torso In the Hoboken
mOrgue was that of her daughter, II was
stated that the doctor with whom the
girl is alleged to have been infatuated
is now in the far West and that the
girl probably is with him.

SPEEDING Up" GIVEN
AS CAUSE OF WRECKS
Senator Cummins Agrees with View.
Expressed by New Haven Rail
road Engineers.
HEAVIER PENALTIES FAVORED

Emphatic agreement was expressed by
Senator Cummins OF Iowa yesterday with
the complaint voiced by n committee of
engineers on the New Haven Railroad
that speeding up orders, demanding
risks in fast driving by engineers, was
responsible in great measure for the
long list Of disasters on that railroad,
That the speed OF trains on the New
Haven has been far too great was eyi-
dent to me from reports Of the number
OF trains and the time schedule made
public at the inquiry into the Walling-
ford wreck" declared Senator Cunnins
The speed which can safely be given a
train depends upon certain absolute and
relative factors. Tho absolute fac
tors are the condition of rolling
stock, track, switches, signaling system,
THE relative factors include the num-
Der Of trains being operated on a given
piece of track. believe Il was Feported
in connection with the latest wreck that
there were six trains running on one
track in one direction within ten miles
That is an absurd condition, ana the
slightest error in the operation Of. any
one OF them must lead to danger or dis
aster.
"It is difficult to say what aneed
would be safe. but the engineers of the
New Haven certainly are right In their
statement that the railroad is attempt
ing too fast a time schedule under exist
ing conditions
.It is, of course, difricult to reach an
the details Of railroad management by
Federal legislation. but the penalties for
Of the law regulating these mat
ters should be made heavier"

LIVERPOOL SHOPS CLOSE
Son of Late Mayor Conveys Thanks
to People of Liverpool for
Honors Paid Father.
LIVERPOOL SHOPS CLOSE

Liverpool, Sept. 13.-with flags at half
staff, the Lusitania sailed for New YorH
at o'clock this afternoon. Mayor Gay
nor's body lies in a special stateroom
amidships, covered with the stars and
stripes and a union jack.
Half an hour before sailing, Rufus
Gaynor, the Mayors son stepped aboard.
He wore a dark brown tweed suit and
a white straw hat with a black band.
Unnoticed at first, when the newspaper
reporters spoke to him he gave parting
message in a low unsteady voice.
81 thank all classes OF Liverpool people
for their kindness and courtesy" he said.
They have done magnificent honor TO
my fathers remains. Our family VIII
never forget it"
The principal stores in Liverpool put
up their shutters this morning as mark
OF respect OF the dead Mayor. Every
flag in the city was flown at half stan.
Consul Makes Call.
Before Rufus Gaynor sailed. the
American Consul made an official call
at the Delphi Hotel and conveyed to
him the assurance OF sympathy from
Liverpoors American colony. He also
conveyed to the Lord Mayor Of Liver
pool the grateful thanks of the Ameri-
can people for the care and the honor
he and the citizens of Liverpool be-
slowed on Mayor Gaynor. The Lord
Mayor was considerably affected BY
the tribute.
1T is impossible for me to say how
gratifying these thanks are" he said
But when one considers the close as
sociation of this city with America
I could not have done less than to
honor the mayor of that marvellous
city. New York. My regret is that We
are unable to express our sorrow and
sympathy more adequately, but trust
that the citizens OF New York will re-
alize the inexpressible sympathy We
wish to convey. They would naturally
expect us to do all honor to their CHIEF
magistrate.
"I am proud we have been able to
do the little we have done. AS Lord
Mayor OF Liverpool I ask New York to
accept the city's united offer OF regret
and sympathy"

BUTTER TARIFF RATES
NOT TO AFFECT PRICES
Reduction of Duty and Rumors of In.
creased lmportations Do Not Cause
Alarm to Local Merchants.

The provision in the tariff bill calling
for a reduction of the present scent
rate on butter to I-2 cents, and the re-
cent Importation Of large quantities OF
butter from Siberia and Australia are
not expected by local butter dealers to
have any effect upon the industry in
Washington or in the country at large.
The local butter merchants were not
the least pertuTbed yesterday at the dis.
patch from New York, stating that but
ter from Siberia and Australia were in
bond there, awaiting the passage OF the
new tariff bill. There are Loo frkins OF
the Siberian butter, each firkin weighing
ia pounds The Siberian product can

New York at a cost of 20 5-S cents a
pound. and the addition of the tax pro-
y-ided IN the new tariff brings the selling
price up to % Is cents. This is said to
he about cents under the prices being
asked by most dealers for American but
ter
Local merchants say that the Aus
traIian and Siberian butter is inferior to
the American kind. and that its intro
ductiOn into the country Will not affect
the industry here
No fear is felt by the local butter
merchants" said James NJ. Holloway.
one of the leading butter merchants of
the city. when interviewed last night
Both the Siberian and Australian but
ter is Unsalted, and in a sense is inferior
to the American butter. Its taste is diff
ferent and consequently ii will be pur-
chased almost exclusively by foreigners.
These foreigners are not sufficiently nu-
merous to interfere with the American
butter trade. Although the foreign but
ter is several cents cheaper than the
American butter, its sale will not be eX-
tensive. 1t is very difficult to get the
people of this country to try something
entirely new, and, besides, there are
many persons who would not like the
taste Of this foreign butter"
