NO LOAFTNG ON JOB

Several men who are seeking ap-
pointments to city offices under the
next administration have been circu-
lating petitions which they plan to
present to Mayor-elect Robbins.
In a most emphatic manner, Mr.
Robbins today expressed his disap-
proval of such procedure in making
application for appointments.
''Such petitions rarely count for
much" he said. Many people sign
them because it would be embarras-
sing for them not to do so. People
who have signed petitions have tele-
phoned to me that they were not in
favor of men whose pleas for appoint
ment they had signed"
He concluded with the statement
that he would give petitions little con-
sideration.
A number of citizens have spoken
to Mayor-elect Robbins about the de-
sirab bility of not including the city
judgeship as one of the duties of the
mayor, pointing out that the city
court is now very important one and
that it's bench should be occupied by
a man versed in the law.
Will Do the Work.
To all of them Mr.. Robbins has
pointed out that the 1914 budget, pre-
pared last September, has made no
provision for the salary of city
Judge and that, in consequence, he
will be required to perform this work.
81 am not familiar with the law and
know it would be good thing to
have some lawyer to preside over the
city court but | have no option but to
perform this work." he said today.
Mr.. Robbins took occasion today to
comment on the efficiency of the Rich
mond fire department, but expressed
the opinion that there was the oppor-
tunity to still further increase its ef-
ficiency.
"The firemen do not receive the
proper physical training for their
work." he said. "In the army soldiers
who are kept in barracks are kept in
fit physical condition for active serv-
ice by constant training. Firemen
also should be required to take GER
tain amount of exercise so that they
will be physically fit to perform their
duties, which require great exertion,
when called upon. | have been told
that some of the men in our depart
ment become exhausted after two
hours work. That condition of af-
fairs can be remedied easily. | also
am in favor of regular fire drills for

Huerta Expected to Decline Answer to Presidents
Last Note.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-General
Huerta's statement to the diplomatic
corps in Mexico City, declaring he
will remain in office until new cleo
tions are held, was received by the
state department today from acting
ambassador 'Shaunessy.
Secretary Bryan admitted that it
was, correctly stated in the press
dispatches" as carried by the press
dispatches, Huerta's statement is a di-
rect defiance of the American demand
that he resign.
President Wilson admitted to call
ers at the white house today that the
Mexican situation is grave. No imme-
diate action is expected from the ad-
ministration, however. The president
neither has written a message to con-
gress on Mexican affairs, nor has any
present intention of writing one, he
told his callers.
Troops Are Moving.
United States troops are moving
toward the Mexican border today.
They are sent ostensibly for border
patrol duty, but it is expected even by
most optimistic government officials
that they will see duty in Mexico be-
fore they return. The war department
announced that the Fifteenth cavalry
left FIT. Meyer. FIT. Leavenworth and
FIT. Sheridan, Chicago, this morning.
While war department officials laid
special stress on the statement that
this movement has nothing to do with
possible intervention. 1t was admitted
that the main reason for the transfer
of the Fifteenth cavalry is to give the
United States a force sufficient to ac-

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-Several hun
dred thousand dollars damage was re-
ported today from points along Lake
Michigan, which were just recovering
from the worst storm in years. Men
who have lived close to the lake de-
clared that never in their memories
had the waves rolled so wickedly nor
the wind blown so viciously.
Ia In Chicago more than $500. 900 loss
was reported. The storm struck hard

another blizzard was forming in the
Canadian northwest, preparing to
sweep across the United States near

Damage estimated at 100000 was
done in Lincoln park by the wind and

O'SHAUGHNESSY TO LEAVE.
Charge d'Affairs and Lind Prepare to
Quit Mexico

Quit Mexico.
MEXICO CITY, Nov. 10.-Diplo-
matte relations between the United
States and Mexico are so near the
breaking point that arrangements are
being made for charge daffaires
O'Shaughnessy and special envoy John
Lind to leave the country. When the
American embassy is closed, its affairs
will be turned over to the Norwegian
minister. s&
War preparations are being rushed
by the Mexican government with all
possible speed. General Huerta is still
playing for time and is likley to delay
for some time his formal reply to the
United States demand that he retire
from office.
Will OF Answer Note.
The statement issued to the diplo-
matte corps here, however. leaves no
further doubt as to his attitude. 1t is
within the bounds of possibility that
he will never answer the United
States at all, but the American gov
eminent will bring all negotiations
summarily to An end.
Reports that the United States
would lift the embargo on arms for
the Constitutionalists has caused a
feeling akin to panic here. The belief
is general that if Washington took
such action there would be a reign of
bloodshed throughout Mexico and no
foreigner would be safe.

Representative Crawford Wheatley

is greatly interested in his local bill
requiring the county forces to work
the main roads leading into Americas

counties, and as is done in other towns
in Sumter. The bill has already pass

but that the senate will take favorable
action upon it.
Representative Wheatley has been
one of the busiest members of the

sembly has disposed of a great amount
of important business. The session is
