Anxious About Foreiqners.

WASHINGTON, Dec 26.-The situ- ation of the foreigners in Mexico who have incurred the ill will of the rebels
 is again giving concern to state depart ment officials. The Japanese ambas- sadOr called upon Acting Secretary Moore with a request that the United States government do whot it could to protect the Japanese at JuareZ. and other border points. There is some ap prehension that these Japanese may be made to feel the weight of the re- sentiment by the cOnstitutionalists be- cause the federals are receiving sup plies of arms and ammunition from Japan although it has already been pointed out that these goods are being delivered under contracts made by Jap anese merchants last April
 Acting Secretary Moore promised to instruct the American consuls in the rebel territory to extend the same care to Japanese citizens that they would to Americans. According to state depart ment reports General Aguilar. the rebel l leader, with several hundred men rec ently entered the Hacienda Canahl, l owned by the Tampico Navigation com pany and compelled the payment of ] five thousand dollars. Aguilar and his I troops are said to be staying at Can | ahl and requiring the Navigation com pany to feed both men and horses. | The honors accorded Governor Ri
 veras and his party by Rear Admiral Cowles on board the cruiser Pittsburg
 was in recognition of legally elected officials of the state of Sinaloa and not | members of the constitutionalist force
 opposing the Huerta government ir | Mexico.
 AS the duly elected governor, MT l Riveras was entitled to the salute o1 l seventeen guns said Franklin D
 Roosevelt, acting secretary of the Navy
 tonight, but he added, "in no sense
 of the word were Mexican officials re.
 ceived as representatives of the consti
 tutionalist faction"

 NOT ACCEPT AID FROM CITIZENS
Calumet Miners. Mourning Loss of Those Who Died
 in Panic on Christmas Eve, Refuse Assistance from Other Than W. F. NJ.
ASSOCIATED PRESS n1spArcHI

CALUMET, Dec. 26-Refusals to ac- cept one cent of the $25,000 collected for the relief of the families stricken by the catastrophe in which seventy two persons lost their lives as a re- suit of panic on Christmas eve, in Italian Hall confronted today the com- mittee which gathered the funds. Every bereaved household that was ap- preached told the men and women in charge of the distribution, that they had been promised adequate aid by the Western Federation of Miners and that no other assistance was wanted.
 Members of the relief committee se- lected at yesterdays mass meeting, blamed this condition upon a rumor that the man who started the panic among the children of the striking cop per miners wore the emblem of the Citizens Alliance, an organization re- garded as opposed to the continuation of the strike. To combat this sentiment they obtained from Anthony Lucas prosecuting attorney of Houghtor county, a statement that he is satisfied

JUAREZ, Dec. 26.-The rebel march to attack the federals at Oiinaga, op- posite Presidio, is proceeding as fast as the artillery of the rebels will permit, according to reports today, It is thought the rebels will be delayed by going through the canons near Ojinaga. Luis Estrada, an agent of the federals gave out the information that the fed erals had no intention of remaining at Ojinaga to permit the rebels to attack them He said that the federals would probably move eastward along the bor- der toward JuareZ.
 This report was given no credence by the rebels For the first time within a year freight traffic on the Mexican Northwestern railroad was opened to- day from Juarez to the lumber camp of Pearson. The service will be eX- tended to the town of Madeira and tc Chihuahua as soon as the road has beer repaired.

 WHEN THE SEASONE ENDS
 FOR FILING PETITIONS
BROADER FIELD
 FOR A SELECTION

The Committee of One Hun dred and Twenty will wait until all the petitions of candi- dates before the city primaries have been filed before it will eX-- press it's preference of any for the elective offices. That decision was reached without a dissenting voice last night after there had been received the report of the sub- committee, directed by the committee at it's last meeting to present a list from which a se- lection should he made for en- dOrSement.
 It was the opinion of all those members of the committee who had been most active in it's de- Alterations that, inaSmuch as the number of candidates whose peti tions had been filed or who had been suggested by the sub committee was so small and that as there was probability that many more petitions would be filed, it would be better to defer further action until the time for filing petitions had closed That will be on January 22. Some time after that the next meeting of the committee will be called. There was hearty acquiescence in this decision.

 Secretary McAdoo left his office to- day suffering from a slight fever, and the other committeeman, Secretary Houston, decided to abandon the task until MT. McAdoo's return. Included in the committees announcement follow ing is a general outline of the things to be considered in choosing the proposed districts:
 First, the geographical convenience which includes transportation facilities and rapid and easy communication with all parts of the district.
 Second, industrial and commercial developments and the needs of each section, which involves consideration of the general movement of commodities, business transactions with the district, the transfer of funds and the exchanges of credit arising therefrom
 Third the established custom of the trend of business as developed by the present system bank of reserves and checking accounts. In laying out the districts and establishing headquarters, every effort will be made to promote business convenience and normal movements of trades and commerce" Political consideration will not be permitted to influence the committee in determining these important ques- tions."

LOS ANGELES, Dec 26-The po- lice were justified yesterday in dis perslng a meeting of one thousand unemployed men in the plaza. al though the action cost the life of one the arrest of seventy y-five. and the clubbing of many others. according to members of the public welfare committee of the city council. This decision was reached late today after an official investigation of the affair which convinced the committee the riot was started by the idle men themselves, Industrial Workers of the World. MeXicanS and other foreigners when the police attempted to stop the meeting which was held without a permit and contrary to city or dinances.
 It was decided to issue complaints 1 tomorrow charging disturbance of the peace against thirty-two under arrest the belief being it will be easier tC obtain convictions on that charge than that of rioting A more serious charge probably of assault with . deadly weapon, will be placed against Jesus Sovia, the Mexican accused o1 stabbing Police Lieutenant Kriege il the neck after knocking him down.
 During the councils investigation z large number of witnesses were heard They included several of tho injured policemen as well as some O
 the leaders of the disturbance. Among
 the latter was Peter Castorina. al Industrial Worker, who accused tho police of having kicked and beatel | MeXicans about the plaza He sait
 that as an Industrial Worker he be Heved the government disinherite,
 him. but that as soon as the or
 ganization of which he is member
 is strong enough. it will take ove
 the government. The region of tn plaza was patroled by extra officer

 In most instances the offers of relief were refused without any show of feel ing other than confidence that the un- ion would be able to take care of all wants There were occasional eXcep- tions of bitterness, however, and in one case two women distributors were elected from the home where two chil- dren lay dead
 In spite of the evident determination of the stricken families not to accept aid except from the union, the commit tee is not without hope of overcoming their prejudices. A meeting was held tonight to consider other plans for dis tributing the money collected.
 Efforts to discover the identity of the man who started the panic met some success today. Several persons gave lengthy affidavits to the investigators and from a description furnished by one fourteen-year- old boy, it was hoped that the man might be traced.

A few years ago there was a regu-

 mystery in engineering circles just
 why the shaft should break when it had been given any ample margin of
 strength above all foreseen strains. That steel gets tired" under the con-
 stant vibration of a long cruise at ! twelve-knot speed is the opinion of most engineers, but what the naval board intends to find out, if possible, is some means of determining this | deteriora ton before the metal actually reaches the breaking point.

 LOS ANGELES. Dec 26-Sheriff Hammel was forced to call for the assistance of q squad of mounted police and a platoon of patrolmen to raise the siege on the county jail by curiosity seekers before he could take the confessed train bandit and mur- derer. John Bostick, to the scene of the Sunset express robbery at Fl Monte. Hammel desired to have the prisoner go over in detail his opera tions on the train on December l.. which eliminated in the murder of Horace F. Montague, a travelling passenger agent.
 But throng of several hundred people, mostly men and boys crowd ed about the barred doors and win dOws of the prison and after vainly trying to get Bostick out unobserved, the sheriff called on the police. The moun-e ed men rode into the crowd and cleared the main door way while patrolmen with clubs dis persed the assemblage. Then Ham, mel with his Shdckled prisoner emerged and hurried to q motor car which whirled away to Fl Monte. Hammel said all the jewelry Bostick took from the women passengers on i the Sunset train Pullmans had not 1 been accounted for and he wanted Bostick, among other things, to say whether he had buried the loot near the scene of the holdup.
 Bostick for time was very surly and sulky today This was due tc Hammers activity in running down clews to the identity of the girl for whom the sheriff said Bostick turned to the life of q bandit Hamme promised not to reveal her name, and Bostick promised to be more com municative when he and the sheriff arrived at Fl Monte.
