LONE BANDIT HOLDS UP CAR
Robber on Westhound Burlington Es-
capes at Omaha With $500 in
Money and six Watches.

Omaha, Neb.-A single robber
with a pistol in each hand held
up and robbed the Pullman passen-
gers on the westbound Burlington fast
mail train from Chicago to Seattle,
between the time the train left Coun-
Gil Bluffs and its arrival in Omaha.
When the train pulled into the
Omaha depot, the robber jumped from
the rear Pullman and escaped into
the railroad yards nearby. AS nearly
as can be figured, the booty amounted
to about $500 in cash and six watches
In addition to the half dozen pas
sengers, there were three trainmen
in the car and these suffered the same
treatment accorded the passengers.

give delicious flavor and con-

Misunderstanding Of State
Bryan declared unfounded the press
dispatch from Mexico City whichsaid
that Washington had sent an ulti-
matum demanding that Huerta resign
the presidency without loss of thine.
Discussing this, Bryan said;
Il have made it a rule not to dis
cuss newspaper reports concerning
international matters; but the nature
of the dispatches from Mexico suggest
a departure from the rule at tnis time.
mo ultimatum has been sent to
Mexico, and it is unfortunate that the
press should give credence to such a
report. The harm done by speculation
or even inaccuracies in regard to do
nestle questions is limited, because
the people are acquainted with the
subject and can make allowances; but
as misstatements in regard to inter
national matters may lead to serious
consequences, feel justified in max
ing the above denial"

 Washington, D. C.-As a result of requests from many states, the United States Departmen, of Agriculture has announced that the November crop reports for each state will be sup piled to the newspapers in all states through lhe central weather station located in each of the states.
 This is an extension of the expert ment of telegraphing the state crop returns of the central weather stations in each of the nine states and having these telegrams duplicated at once and mailed 10 the newspapers and a%riCuural publications. Under this plan, the newspapers in 39 additional states will now receive full details of the state crops far more quickly than would be possible if these state crop details were put in the mails in Wash ington and had to travel by train long distances to the more remote states.

 This ultimatum from Washington was conveyed to President Huerta through his private secretary, Senor Rabago by Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the American charge daffairs, acting un- der instructions from the State Depart ment.
 Senor Rabago presented the memo randum to his chief late Sunday, but up to Tuesday President Huerta had could be learned had guarded it's con- tents from almost all of his official and intimate counselors.
 Those who learned of the Washing ton note regard General Huertas po- sition as one in which he will be fore ed to give one of two answers-re- fusal point blank to comply with the demand. possibly going so far as to hand the diplomatic representative his passports, or the elimination of him self officially. Those most intimate with the president insist that the lat ter course will not be taken for many reasons. chief among which is that such action would be tantamount to submission to the rebels.
 Officially Mexico is no longer in doubt that the Washington admins. tration favors the rebel cause and is convinced that this is the means adopt ed by President Wilson and Secretary Bryan to assist Carranza to win.
