ment Will be to prevent discussion in Congress of any other means of ap- preaching the trouble, certainly up to the date of holding the national election in Mexico, October 26.
 Secretary Bryan was not disposed today to discuss the report here and elsewhere that Ambassador Wilson has thrown down the gage to the administration, demanding that it ac- cept his immediate and unconditional resignation or line itself up with his Mexican policies. The report of MT. Wilson's ultimatum is discredited by Secretary Bryan. It was brought to Secretary Bryans attention that ow- ing to the activity of Representative Smith, of Texas, and certain Mexican railway officials, the administration is about to decapitate Consul Ed wards at Juarez. It is alleged that he has been sending out inaccurate in formation and has been too friendly with the rebels and has outliyed his usefulness.
 Secretary Bryan neither affirmed nor denied it that the matter was up for consideration, but said:
 '"The State Department has no an nouncement to make on this report" It was learned this afternoon that the administration and especially Secre- tary Bryan demurred at the idea, of Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson be- ing sent before the foreign relations committee of the senate and interro- gated concerning affairs in that re- public.

CLARKE OPPOSES
 bRYAN'S TREATY Arkansas Senator and 9th ger Leaders Make Known
 Their Position.
NICARAGUA AFFAIR
Idea of a PrOtect0rate for Central American Republic is Literally
 Denounced.

Washington, July 29.-Serous op- position to Secretary Bryans treaty with Nicaragua, placing a protector ate over that county With a guaran- tee of it's sovereignty and other obli- cations imposed upon the United States, manifested itself in the sen ate committee on foreign relations today. Secretary Bryan was to have been present to further explain the provisions of the convention and con- fer over proposed notifications. He was detained at hite House confer ences on the Mexican question.
 The idea of a protectorate was literally denounced by Senators Borah and William. Alden Smith, Re- publicans, and James P. Clarke, of Arkansas, and John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, Democrats. These senators took the view that it was unwise for this government to begin the business of exercising political control over Central American repub- lices. If begun in this case, no man could tell where it might end. If it was deeamed desirable to have a naval case at Fonseca Bay, the sena- tors declared that provisions can be bought. If the Nicaraguan govern men was wi1ling-Atoa sell it's entire birthright to the United States through protectorate, Senator Borah said it would be an easy matter to negotiate for naval base if that were needed.
 Opponents to the treaty in it's pro- posed shape based their opposition on the fact that there was not ex- isting in Nicaragua today a govern meat that represented the people of the little republic. The present gov ernment, they said, was nothing but shell, "set up by the marines from United States warships in 1911 and sustained to this moment by American forces"

MONEY TIGHT
 CROPS BouNTEous

Calgary, Alberta, July 29.-Western Canada now faces a peculiar finan- cial situation. With the biggest crop in history, ready for harvesting in two weeks, money is tighter than ever known here. Newspapers are urging the Dominion government to loan ten million dollars in Alberta either to farmers or by taking up provincial or city bond issues. Banks claim they have no funds to loan. Within ten days two daily papers in Alberta have temporarily suspended publication. expecting to resume in the fall. English banks are coming to the aid of farmers in marketing crops.

PRISONERS RELEASED
Resolution Introduced in Congress Looking to Thorough Investiga.
 tiOn of Alleged Outrages.

Washington, July 29.-President Huerta, of Mexico. has needed the peremptory demands of the United States for the immediate trial of the persons who shot Charles Dixon, the immigration official at Juarez, and has ordered the trial to proceed ex- peditiously.
 Making further surrender for inn mediate action on the demands of the United States, President Huerta has telegraphed instructions to the gov ernor of Chihuahua for the immediate release of Bissell, Mcdonald and Bis sells chauffeur, the Americans who are held by the federals.
 Not only did Huerta inform Nelson OShaughnessy, the American charge d affairs. at Mexico City of these facts, but he sent to the State De- partment a complete disavowal of the Dixon affair, coupled with protesta- tions of regard for the American gov ernment. He regrets "very much tha~ the American government should ascribe to the influence of the Mexi- can government any action which might be construed as antagonistic to Americans during his occupancy of the executive authority" Huerta says further that he desires the State De- pertinent to be assured "that no in- justice or violence shall be done to Americans with his cognizance while he is in his present position"
 Congressman Stephens, of Texas, today introduced a resolution provid ing for a joint senate and house com mittee to investigate Mexican condi tions, report on outrages to which Americans are alleged to have been subjected, the prospect for establish ment of stable government and re concentrations for a fixed American policy towards Mexico. He believes that peace, if brought about, will only be temporary.
 In the senate, Senator Shepherd, of Texas, introduced a resolution look ing to the possible recognition of the Mexican revolutionists as belligerents. The resolution requests the foreign relations committee to advise the sen ate whether in their opinion this na- ton should recognize the belligerency Of the revolutionists in Mexico and accord them international status to which they may be entitled.
 President Wilson is now, it is un- derstood preparing by way of ten der of the good offices of the United State to bring about a truce or arm lstlc between the warning Mexican factions, pending the final settlement of the war. This proposition, Secre- tary of State Bryan pointedly refused 10 discuss today, although it is known mat the president has substantially rejected any other action, but tender or good offices for the first clearing or the atmosphere.

 Through an operation, performed at the Davis Hospital recently by Dr. O. w.

The arm first lodged in the baby's windpipe, but worked its way into the right lung, before meii- cal aid reached her.
 The baby was taken hnrridly to Little Rock. where surgeons declare:l that it would be useless for them to attempt to take tte piece of china from. the child, for an operation meant death. Dr. ". H. Simmons. of Fordyce, brought the little girl to Dr. Clark here and her fathes accom- panied them. Dr. Clark told tho parent that he would attempt the serious surgical operation, but he could not assure him that it would be successful. However, realizing that to leave the china hand in the little girls lung would prove fatal. the father gave his consent to the opera tion and it was performed four days ago. It was necessary to open the little girls windpipe from the out- side of the throat and to take away a part of the upper ribs in order to get at the affected lung. This ac- complished. the china doll hand vas removed with ease. Now the patient is recovering. She Is still at the l Davis Hospital however.

knlahts Of the Bath.

The revival at the abbey OF the
ceremonies In connection with the
Most Honorable Order of the Bath re-
minds us that until the reign OF
Charles II. the creation of the Knight
OF the Bath was a somewhat trying
ordeal. He was conducted to a cham
Der at the Tower OF London. where
bath was prepared, into which he
was plunged. He then resumed his
clothes, with hermit's hood of russell
cloth. and thus attired kept his vigil
until daybreak, when he snatched a
brief rest. And In the morning, hab-
tied in costly robes, he rode to the
court, where he received the sword and
spurs and was dubbed a Knight Of
the Bath by the king. For he had
taken bath-a courageous act in the
fifteenth century.-London Chronicle.

OLD METHOD ADOPTED
BUSINESS INTERESTS TO ADVISE
ON TARIFF REVISION.
Democrats Complain Only Ct the use
Made by Republicans Of the In
formation They Gathered
In Same Way.

The plan adopted ins,r.es tho revf
sion or the Payne law by the old meth
Cd OF preparation. Business interests
are to have their day in COMMITTEES.
All affected are to be permitted to
draw near and tell their side OF the
story. Gone Is the tarin BOARD. Re-
1ected Is the suggestion Of tariff
commission. Remote is the prospect
OF so-called scientific tariff law.
Dreams. like dogs. have their day.
Well, both sides agreed. The vote
on the plan In committee was unani-
nous. What was proposed already
bad Republican sanction. The Payne
law had been prepared In just that
manner. and so what the Republicans
had done when in authority they could
not AFFORD to oppose when proposed
by the Democrats after the turning or
the tables at the polls.
The Payne law. It Is true, failed to
satisfy the country. But that was not
due to any charge that the Republi-
cans had proceeded In the dark; that
they had not sufficiently informed
themselves on the subject of business
conditions. cost OF production and
other cognate matters.
The Democrats complained not OF
the insufficisncy OF the information of
the Republicans. but OF the use made
OF It. With the same information
they would have rearranged schedules
and changed rates-would have low
cred the tariff all along the lines.
Their chance Is coming, The hear
ings appointed should bring every
thing sought by the ways and means
committee up to date. and answer as
well in the debate In the house when
the committees bill Ia taken up for
action.
The senate will then have It's In
nings. IL is altogether likely that such
interests as may be dissatisfied with
the action OF the house will appeal to
the senate. SO to say. and ask further
hearings before the finance committee
OF that body. And this will give to
the senate debate when It opens In
the chamber an Importance all it's
own. Amendments will be In order.
and the rules will admit OF wide and
protracted discussion. And after the
senate has finished, the Underwood
Dill may show as many changes as
the Wilson bill did in 1894 after Mr..
German had paid his protection ad-
dresses to IT,
But the point OF moment now Is that
the first step toward the redemption
OF the tariff plank of the Baltimore
platform has been taken, and others
VIII shortly follow. IL business is
anxious as to the general result. the
anxiety will not be protracted. Reck-
oning from April. six or seven months
1t the outside should see new tariff
bill laid on Mr. Wilson's table for his
signature. and the supreme test made
OF his tariff views.

rose leaves and petals. Sufferers
from nervous complaints used to seek
relief by sleeping on rose pillows and

imbibe rose wine as a pick-me-up
after his periodical gormandizing
hours. The flower was also served
