WON'T HEED WILSON'S WARNING,
Americans in Mexico City Apparent
ly Unwilling to Leave

New York, August 30.-President
Wilson's recommendation that Aneri-
can residents of Mexico leave the
country is resented by the Ameri-
can colony in Mexico City; few Amer
leans intend to leave; if they do
leave, their welfare and financial in
terests would be seriously preJu-
diced;' the presidents action was
unwarranted" and due ito simple
ignorance of what is actually tran
spring in Mexico''-this summarize
the contents of various kilograms OF
protest received in the city yesterday
and today from Mexico City.

dent of the Mexican senate and one Of
Mexico's elder statesmen, telegraph

of the Mexican Telegraph company,

ing him to call President Wilson's at

which would result from his de-
mands, or which in all Loyalty, state
there is no reason"
The Methodist Episcopal board OF
foreign missions received advices
from DR.. John W. Butler, superin-
tendent of it's mission in Mexico City,
saying that the washington instruc-
tions for an American exodus" were
much resented" by the American
colony; that the reasons given for it
appear inadequate" and that the
missionaries there objected to leav-
ing.
In view of this protest, the Metho-
dist board, the Presbyterian board
and those of other denominations
nave declined to advise their mission
aries to leave the country, recon-
mending only "that the women and
children be recalled to places OF
safety"
The Mexican Telegraph company
received a telegram from its superin-
tendent in Mexico City, Charles E.
Cummins, saying that there was "a
strong reaction from the first scare
caused by President Wilson's COM

try's Military Forces.

Mexico City, August 30.-Mexico
has issued orders for a new DISPOSE
ton of the troops and for the mill
tarization of all able-bodied men in
that portion of the republic under
control of the central government.
There also will be a general shifting
of headquarters to cities along both
coasts and the northern frontier.
It is announced that to each Of a
number of generals have been sent
instructions of Importance, but
their character is not revealed.
Recently orders were issued to every
governor and jefe poilitico to organ
ize and drill all able-bodied men
under their respective jurisdictions
for the ostensible purpose of taking
part in parades on September 1, ma
tional Independence Day The min
lister of Interior, Dr. Urrutia, has
notified every planter in the republic.
This is for the purpose of defending
individual properties against bandits,
it being pointed out that the revolu-
tionary conditions had so far abated
that the only menace to these proper
ties was from bandits

AMERICANS CAN'T LEAVE.
Prevented by Federal Commander,
Say Three Who Escaped.

Eagle Pass, Texas, August 30.-In-
vested by 10000 rebels and defended
by 5000 federals, Torreon, State of
Coahuila, Mexico, holds a number OF
Americans who lave been refused
permission to leave the beseiged city,
according to three American refugees
who arrived here today, The trio,
Frank and Milton Chisun, and An
drew Odel, escaped after Gen Bravo,
the federal commander, had said no
American could quit the place. They
procured mules and, unharIaed, made
the journey of 600 miles to Piedras
Negras, the rebel headquarters op-
posite Eagle Pass. The men said the
federals in Torreon burn their dead
each day and tnat disease has been
largely prevented. A scarcity OF
food, however, is occasioning much
suffering among the poor
Incident to the investment of the
city, the refugees said, six Americans,
members of the constitutionalist
army, were captured recently and
summarily executed. The losses in
recent engagements, they declare,
are not nearly so heavy as reported,
totalling not more than 300 or 400
on each side.

These have been caught by the
wave of enthusiasm, but the parading
students, while protesting willing
ness, have been left little choice since
the government order that students
in all government schools shall be
subjected to military training.
The minister of foreign affairs,
Senor Gamboa, is still awaiting re-
ply from the American envoy, Mr..
Lind, to his lost note, but if there
have been any further exchanges the
fact has not been admitted by either
the foreign office or the embassy.
Many telegrams and letters congra-
tulating Gen. Huerta on the "pat-
riotic and virile stand he has taken
before the COLOSSUS Of the North
continue to be published.
Refugees Coming In.
Refugees from interior points are
beginning to arrive here. The trains
tonight proceeded to Vera Cruz with
heavier American passenger list
than on any night since the warning
from Washington for Americans to
leave Mexico Consul General
Shanklin's office was visited by an
unbroken stream of Americans seek
ing information regarding the warn
ing and some asking for transporEa-
ton. To all Consul Shanklin has
showed his instructions and impress
ed upon them that Washington S
warning "is to leave at once"
Hundreds of Americans of the
better class are availing themselves
of free transportation; and some by
no means paupers are cut out of
funds, and with no market for any
thing they may have for sale, are
forced to consider the proposition.
Consul Shanklin has been
bombarded with questions as to what
is to be done for them while they are
waiting for a vessel at Vera Cruz or
on their arrival in the United States
will furnish transportation to their
homes or relatives.

AS to Dangerous COnVictS.
"Those prisoners who must come
to the penitentiary because of the
Nervousness of their crimes slould
be worked in a reasonable way, at
some business within the walls Of
the penitentiary, absolutely under
your control and direction, and most
positively not under the control or
direction of any individual, private,
firm or corporation; and you should
provide sucn proper restrictions and
regulations as to give these people
that rest which the human body re-
quires and that fresh air and sun
shine which God intended that they
should have. Because they are pri-
soners does not take from them their
humanity, nor does it deprive them
of the soul that is in the body of
each of them, and when you Cypress
orc of them you violate one of the
greatest commandments ever given
by God to man

State Treasurer's Statement.
"It would appear on the face of the
bids that the Peoples bank, of Co
lumbia, offered the lowest rate, which
was 4.45 per cent, but as matter OF
fact the Palmetto National banks bid
amounted to $500 SS less interest
than the Peoples bank and was
1925 % less than the Peoples Nation
al bank rate. The calculations were
made by myself and comptroller
general Jones and two disinterested
expert bankers and they found that
the interest charged by the various
banks would be as follows:
National Union bank, of Rock
Hill, between $500 and $4,000; the
condition stipulated by this bank was
such that it had to be estimated; Peo-
pies bank, of Columbia, s4,969 II;
Peoples National bank, of Rock Hill,
S4,69O 81, and the Palmetto National
bank, s4,465 29"
This statement was made by S. T.
Carter, State treas screr and secretary
Of the financial h2lcG, wnen asked
as to the loan.
In addition to that of the Palmetto
bank the following bids were submit
ted:
Equitable Life Assusance society,
all to be taken at one time at per
cent interest with 3 per cent on daily
balances; the Peoples bank, of Co.
lumbia, for the full amount at 4. 45
per cent interest; the Peoples Ma
tional bank, Of Rock Hill, through its
cashier, C. L. Cobb, two propositions
for the full amount at one time at
4 1-2 per cent interest, or in two in
stalments the first half to draw from
date and the balance from October
and at ga per cent interest.
