Bryan Orders Letcher to
Report on Case in
Chihuahua
BRITISH SUBJECT
DRIVEN FROM RANCH
Carothers Directed to Inter
cede in Behalf of Luis
Terrozas

Washington, March o. Another Brit.
ish subject has gotten into trouble in
the state OF Chihuahua, Mex, and the
state department at Washington has
again been called upon to extend its
protection. Sir Cecil Spring Rice called
at the state department Saturday to in
form Secretary Bryan that an English
man named Syndan had been driven
away from his ranch, and that his prJT,-
erty was in danger of destruction. Sec
rotary Bryan Immediately telegraphed
to American Consul Letcher at China
hua to make an inquiry and report the
facts. If necessary, protest will be
made to Carranza or Villa.
Technically, the commission which was
charged to investigate the killing of
Benton continues in existence, and Sec
rotary Bryan Saturday stated that its
functions had simply been suspended.
There is now, however, little idea that
the commissioners will proceed to Chi
huahua in the expectation OF uncoyering
any evidence Of value, though it prob
ably viii be required to carry out its
original instructions merely for the
purpose of establishing the principle of
the right of the United States govern
ment to act in this matter Meanwhile,
nothing further has been heard at the
state department from Gen. Carranza or
his subordinates regarding the investi-
cation which he is making
There seems to be no present inten
ton Of returning any answer to the
communication from Gen. Huerta pro-
testing against the removal OF the en-
barge against the expectation of arms
into Mexico. The administration. it is
thought, does not care to risk the con-
struetion that such response ~ould
formal recognition of the
lluerta government.
Consular Agent Carotlers at Chihua-
hua was directed by Secretary BRYAN
yesterday to intercede with constitutions
alist leaders in behalf of Luis Terrazas
of the wealthy Mexican family of that
name, Press reports stated that Luis
had been condemned to death unless
S250000 NV ransom was paid by his fam.
family. The American agent was di-
rected to use every effort to prevent the
carrying ont Of this threat, pointing
out that American sympathy and toll
arance might be alienated from the con
cause by such acts.

JoBLESs WILL NOT WORK.
CALIFORNIA; Chief Executive Is Indig-
nant at "Army."

Sacramento, Cal, March 0. The ex-
ecutiye committee of the anti-Kelly fac
tion OF the unemployed army drew a
sharp Tebuke from Gov. Hiram w. John
son, to whom they appealed for help
Saturday when they admitted that they
did not want work and would not accept
it If it were offered to them. The gov
ernor said: For the men who want
work have the greatest sympathy, and
am willing to do everything | can to
help them. For the men who won't
work, which / understand is the pan
ciple with the industrial workers ofsthe
world. | have no sympathy. You say
that the majority of your army will not
work until they have completed their
journey to Washington. Therefore, YOU
do not present an unemployed problem
You are presenting a particular propo-
ganda and asking the state to assist you
in spreading this propaganda. Those are
not the actions of unemployed men"
Sacramento wrestled all day Saturday
with the unemployed problem, precipi-
tated by the arrival there of Gen"
kelley's army, on its way to Washing
ton. Last night no solution had been
reported, but a company of the state
militia had been ordered out by Adjt.-
Gen. Forbes to guard the state arsenal,
where large quantity of arms and
ammunition are stored, and to be in
readiness to answer riot cali. Com
panies at 0royille, Stockton, Chicago
and woodland were notified to bold
themselves in readiness for similar serv-
ice. More than 300 recruits Joined the
army, which is now divided into two
rival factions of almost equal strength,
one obeying the orders of Gen" Kelley
and the other composed of seceders.
About I,500 men are listed in the two
camps.

A simple way of pulping cooked Gran.
berries or other fruit is to turn them
into revolving -four sitter.
Ii is well after using the gas stove
oven for baking to leave the door open
a little. This will allow the heat to
escape and so prevent the chance OF
sweating or rusting
To keep brass like new, rub over a
little furniture cream and polish it with
a soft buster; by so doing the lacquer
is retained and the articles do not be-
come furnished.
An excellent way to finish armholes in
a fine lingerie blouse is to sew the
sleeves in by machine. then buttonhoie
around the edges with either coarse
thread or soft floss.
Cut piece of sandpaper four by eight
inches and tack or glue il to the end of
your ironing board. One or two strokes
of rough iron over the paper viii make
it as smooth as wax would do.
In using the paper lanterns for decora-
tive purposes, it will be well TO put lit
tie sand or a few pebbles around the
candle; this will prevent swaying and so
reduce the chance of the lantern taking
fire.

Premier Asquith's Statement Is Anxious

London, March 9--To-day Premier
Asquith will make his promised state
ment which, it is expected, will pave
the way for settlement of the Irish
home rule question.
Not since the days of Gladstone has
an occasion been awaited with such in
tense interest. All predictions point to
the option of exclusion from the work
ing of the home rule bill being offered
to Ulster counties by the premier, but
it is impossible to predict the reception
such a proposition would have.

lasses had thickened. After fortnight
