U. s. State Secrets
Lifted From Wire
By Mexican Agents
Information Worth Thousands of
Dollars Finds Its Way Into
Possession of Huerta.

WASHINGTON, July ia copy
of the official code of the State De-

worth thousands of dollars to foreign
governments, has fallen into the
hands of the Mexican administration.
1t is being used to further the ends
of the Huerta regime, it was asserted
here to-day.
For some months State Department
officials have suspected that the Gov
eminent kilograms from Mexico City

clared, but this was not considered
important, as all the dispatches were
in code, and, therefore, theoretically
illegible.
About three weeks ago, however,
Government officials here had their
first inkling that the Mexicans were
obtaining the gist of dispatches pass
ing between the State Department and
Ambassador Wilson.
The agents of the almost unknown
secret service" Of the State Depart
ment were put on the trail and evil
dence was obtained that the Govern
ment dispatches had been lifted"
from the wires in Mexico and de-
coded, the information contained
therein being transmitted to President

That 1t Has Been Looted Of
Not Less Than $4,000.

WASHINGTON, July 1s.-Acting

al Bank of Lafayette, Ca, has been

Thomas c. Dunlap. with the authority
of the board of directors, on account
of a large shortage which makes the
bank insolvent
Mr.. Kane says he has not received
a detailed report of the condition Of
the bank. Mr.. Dunlap has been ap-
pointed receiver.
I'VE do not know how big the de-
falcation may be-" said Mr.. Kane,
but our preliminary examination has
shown that it Is not less than $780,
900. This shortage has occurred since
May %, when the bank was last ex-
amined. Suspicion on the part of of
fcers of the bank several days ago
that a shortage existed caused the n
to call in Examiner Dunlap. Discov-
cry Of the embbezzlement resulted.
In his Geographic advices to me
Mr.. Dunlap does not say to whom
suspicion attaches. The last state
ment of the condition of the bank,
issued on June 4, showed the bank to
be in a proper state. The president
of the bank is R. N. Dickerson, and
S. A. Hunt, Jr, is cashier"
In a telegram from Mr. Dunlap Mr..
Kane is advised that steps have been
taken to make an arrest.

Cloverland. Where is Clovsrland
II is the Upper. Peninsula OF Michigan

There Is one form of mineral assess
ment which The Diamond Drill mas
held exorbitant right along and very
injurious TO the communities OF tine
upper peninsula dependant upon the
mining industry. The assessment re-
ferred to is that upon stockpiles. The
question has arisen again on the Mar
auette range where the companies are
directing TO the valuations that have
been placed upon the piles of ore In
stock and they have a license TO OBJ
iect. In order 70 bear out their
Theory of computing assessments
ON a '~'scientifc basis the commission
has TO apply it to the stockpiles o
ore. such as that at the Great Western,
that cannot be sold is assessed at a
high figure, the price being based
on the selling price At Cleveland less
transportation charges year after
wear. The stocking of ore furnishes
employment to many men in these
mining districts during the winter
months and the mining companies
have TO pay a penalty IN the form OF
tax on their wage in the spring. De-
