ARMS MAY BE
SHIPPED TO HUERTA
President Wilson Gives Permission
to Send Rifles and Several Thou
sand Rounds of Ammunition,

Washington, Aug. 24.-President
Wilson has granted permission for
the expectation of 1000 rifles and
$4,000 cartridges to the Huerta
government. All but 1000 rifles
which go to Vera Cruz from New Or
leans will be shipped from Eel Paso
via Juarez. Some of the latter al
ready have gone.
Although it was the first permits
sion granted since June 25, and many
applications have been turned down,
it was declared no change had been
made in the governments policy and
officials pointed out that the neutral
ity proclamation permitted the Presi-
dent t. authorize shipments in his
discretion.
Unofficially it is said the United
States is not opposed to having the
Huerta garrison at Juarez we'll arm
ed, to discourage attack and a bat
tie on the border with its consequent
complications. Neither is this gov
ernment opposed to seeing the line
of communication between Vera
Cruz and Mexico City kept open as
an avenue of egress for foreigners in
Mexico City
No general shipments will be per
mitted.

WILSON WON'T
WAIT LONGER
For Mexico to Change It's Attitude
and Will Read His Message
to Congress Today.

Washington, Aug. 25.-President
Wilson made 1t plain today that un-
less there was a change in the atti-
tude of the government of Provisional
President Huerta within the next "a
hours he would carry out his inten
tion to personally read To congress
tomorrow a special message outlining
the policy of the United States toward
Mexico. He will discuss the message
tonight at the White House With the
entire membership of the senate for
eign relations committee and the
house foreign affairs committee.
The message is couched in very
kind terms because the president feels
that the world generally ought u rec
oginze that the situation in Mexico is
abnormal, being controlled by small
group of men. That circumstance.
the president believes, ought not to
obscure the real feeling of the United
States towards Mexicans, which Is
one of generous friendship. The pre-
sident does not wish In any public ut
terance 10 use words of harshness or
hostility.
That foreign powers generally are
exercising their good Office in Mexico
City, pressing Huerta to yield to the
American proposals, now is openly
admitted by administration officials.
1t was pointed out also that the
activities of foreign governments
were not due to any request by the
United States for assistance, but that
this government had decided on poll
cy of keeping the nations OF the world
generally informed of the steps be-
ing taken to bring about peace, leav-
ing It to the countries of the world
TO do spontaneously what seemed ex-
pedient.
copy of President Wilson's mes
sage will be delivered to the diplo-
matte corps here after its reading to
congress. The document is longer

PORTE WANTS TO
SETTLE WITH TURKS
Pierre Lott Tells Vivid Story of
Massacre and Orgies Com
mitted by BuIgarians.

London, Aug. 25.-The Sublime
Porte has opened direct negotiations
with the Bulgarian delegate, NJ.
Nochevitch, who has remained in
Constantinople since he went there
at the outbreak of the second war to
negotiate an understanding with
Turkey. 1t is understood that the
Porte remains Arm with regard to
Adrianople and rk-Kilisseh but is
prepared to make concessions in
other quarters.
Pierre Lott, the French writer,
under Constantinople date sends to
The Daily Telegraph a vivid story of
his Impressions on visiting Adria-
nople and the surrounding districts.
Lott says:
The Bulgarians have made of
Trace desert surprising in abomi-
nation everything / had been told
and fill that I had imagined"
He describes orgies and massa-
cres and violations and desecration
in all the Turkish villages and asserts
that Adrianople itself only escaped
by miracle because the Turks ar
rived a day earlier than was expect
ed and so defeated the Bulgarian
plans for similar massacre there.
NJ. Lott confirms the story of seve-
raj thousand Turkish prisoners being
herded on an island and there allow
ed to starve to death by the Bulgar-
ians, those who survived starvation
being massacred and protests In the
strongest terms against Europe per-
mitting Adrianople to be handed
back to the Bulgarians. He says to
do so would be crime and expressed
the belief that the Russians have
been misled and that when they know
all the monstrous truth they will
realize that to take up the cause of
this small, deceitful and ferocious
people, this opprobrium of the great
Slav family. would be to soil their
history with an indelible stain"

THAW TO Be ARRA|GNED
IN COURT WEDNESDAY
At SherbroOke, Que, on Writ
of Habeas Corpus.
WILD RUMORS OF ESCAPE.
Report That Thaw Had Escaped the
Second Time Proved to be
Erroneous.

Sherbrook, Que, Aug. 25.-Eight
days since Harry X. Thaw's sensa-
tional escape from Matteawan, today
found him still confined in the Sher-
brooke Jail. Thaw will be arraigned
In the superior court here on writ
of habeas corpus on Wednesday.
The prisoner had fairly restful
night He is fortunate, as are all of
those who rushed here after his de-
tention, in having cool, clear invigor-
ating weather. He has taken little
exercise, however, unless the ner-
vous pacing of his cell can be called
exercise and his personal appearance
is far from being that of the neat
young-old man he appeared to be at
the New York court hearings.
A wild rumor f1oated about Sher-
brooke just before dawn that there
had at last been carried out the often
talked OF jail delivery and that Thaw
was again speeding away in the night
In an automobile. 1t was the out
growth OF the noise made by the pow
erful car of a local physician who
happened to be rushing through the
streets with the mufiier of his ma
chine wide open, not far from the
Jail.

FORM MILITARY UNIT.

The augmented force would thus
be in position to display in strength

or in case of need could form the
military unit of a successful expe-
dictionary force.
Owing to the considerable number
OF troops sent to Hawaii and the
canal zone the detention in China OF
some military force and the main
tenance of an army of about $4,000
men in the Philippines, the total
strength of the mobile army remain
ing in the continental United States,
over and above the complete army
force, which must be maintained in
their posts, is only about 80, 900 men.
or these 1000 are now under Cen
eral Carter in Texas and to bring the
strength of his division up to posi-
BILE requirements heavy drafts would
be laid upon the Eastern and West
ern departments, probably aggregat-
ing $4,000 men.

the differences between $4,000 train
men employed by the Chicago, Burl-

in wages ranging from IL to 20 per
cent, depending upon the class of
work.
In previous negotiations the rail-
road rejected the demands, officials
stating that earnings did not warrant
such advances. On Saturday both
sides admitted they were hopelessly
at odds and appealed to the commits
sion acting under the Newlands law.

U. s. MISSIONARY MURDERED.
Shot While Asleep-Embassy is Now
Conducting an Inquiry.

Constantinople, Aug. 25.-The
United States embassy here has dis
patched Lewis Heck, vice consul, to
open an inquiry into the circum-
stances attending the murder last
week of DR.. Charles H. Holbrook, an
American missionary, at Soushehir,
Asiatic Turky.
According to the official reports,
DR.. Holbrook, who was a native of
Lynn, Mass, was sleeping in the gar
den surrounding the house of an
Armenian who had been paying at
tentions to some Turkish women.
The Turks, determined to punish
the Armenians forced their way into
the garden and shot the sleeping DR..
Holbrook in mistake for the owner
Of the house. This version of the af-
fairs is discredited by dispatches to
the Bible house which indicate that
the murder was a deliberate one.
The murderers have been arrested
and are awaiting trial.

HUERTA AWAITS
THE NEXT MOVE
Still Considering Resigning
Presidency

Mexico City, Aug. 24.-The keen
est anxiety was manifested in the
Capitol today as to what will be the
development of the undertaking OF
the United States government in
MeXico's internal affairs. Mexico's
attitude is one of waiting, while the
people resident here, both native and
foreign, are displaying deep appre-
hension.
That President Huerta will make
public tomorrow the the correspon-
dence between the two countries is
now a matter Of doubt, and in official
quarters it is thought possible that
President Wilson will advance the
date for the presentation of his mes
sage, notwithstanding the announce
ment Of a 48-hour limit No news
OF such determination on the part OF
force General Huerta's hand in this
way, has reached the embassy, how
ever.
Rumors continue that Huerta is
still considering resigning, possibly
in favor of General Trevino, but
there is no sound basis for this asser-
tion.
Those close to the Executive in
sist he will not alter the stand he
has taken and will await Washing
tons next move. The opinion is ex-
pressed here that there will be swift
elimination of all peaceable relations
If Congress is given opportunity for
debate on President Wilson's state
ment of the facts in the case.
Senor Gamboa, minister of foreign
affairs, denies the reports that Mex
leo will make any proposal to the
United States, but expresses the hope
that Washington might reply to Mex
ico's note rejecting the American de-
mands.
Mr.. Lind, President Wilson'S per-
sonal representative. maintains cor
dial relations with the foreign office.
but little has been done during the
last few days by him and Senor Gam
boa, which would be calculated to
alter the situation. At present Off
cial negotiations between the two
countries have ceased, Mr.. Lind be-
ing now a spectator of events rather
than an actor. 1t is not expected
that he will leave here before Presi-
dent Wilson's message is read.
