MILAN OPPOSED 10 ! JONES' CONFIRMATION
Senator Stands With ChaIInln of EBalkmg and Currency Committee.
Especial to the Herald.)


 Washington, July 14.-In the dead lock now existing between President Wilson and the senate banking and eurrency committee over the nomina- t!on of Messrs Jones and Warburg to positions on the federal reserve beard, Senator Mclean stands with khe acting chairman of the committee, Bfatement given out last night Sena- tor Mclean says:
 Senator McLean's Statement
 "The president sent in the names of Messrs. Jones and Warburg at the Same time. The president gave the Chairman of the committee to- under stand that MT. Jones became a direc- Tor of the Harvester trust for the sole burpose of reforming it's business |nethods. MT. Jones insists that he kntered the directorate of the Harves- Ter monopoly at the request of the NcCormicks, and that he, MT. Jones, Sas been and still is in full sympathy |v5th MT. McCormick,s business prac- ices; that he was an active director when the company was prosecuted by Inc department of justice, and advised
 gaipst adopting change in the

business methods requested by the at torney general. As President Will sons paramount desire is to secure obedience to the Sherman act and as he is now holding congress in session for the sole purpose of securing legis- lation that will aid his attorney gem eral in bringing to justice those who disregard the provisions of this act, it would seem to be unwise. for the president to reward violations of the alaw and campaign contributions by promoting Mr. Jones to a position on the federal reserve board. MT. Jones' appointment was a mistake which in- fallibility could not be expected to see, but which ordinary mortals could easily discern.
 Various Rumors Afloat
 !. 'sAsto MT. Warburg, there were ru- mors in the air that he had never voted in this country; that he was the silent partner in his fathers banking institutions in Europe and man o1 great wealth, all of which was invest ed in foreign securities. MT. Hitch cock, as acting chairman of the com mittee, thought that it would be on;y fair to invite MT. Warburg to meet with the committee and give the com- mittee the facts in order that the committee might be in a position to repel outside attacks that might be made upon MT. Warburg's confirms tion. I certainly thought we were conferring a favor upon MT. War burg. His commanding position in h. nance and his profound knowledge of sound bankin8 principles were con ceded by the committee. The invita- tions to meet with the committee were sent to MT. Jones and MT. Warburs in accordance with custom in order that the committee might be armed with the exact truth. It is the con- stitutional duty of the senate to in form itself as to these matters. If

Vera Cruz, July 14.-Interesting developments are awaited following the interesting statements of Roberto Esteva Ruiz, formerly acting secre- tary of foreign affairs, who arrived here from Mexico City. He declared that General Huerta is about to re- sign and leave Mexico. He said that Huerta plans to turn over the gov ernment to Francisco Carbajal, his new minister of foreign affairs, with the understanding that Minister Car bajal will in turn resign and leave the chair for some one who will be acceptable to the Constitutionalists His opinion was that Huerta has at last seen the inevitable and intends to bow to the force of circumstances with as little injury to his capital as possible. The change, according to Senor Ruiz, may come in a week; it may come any day.

HEARS OF SUICIDE
Of SISTER,
Press Dispatch Tells of the
Death of Relative of
G. X. Macy.

State Horticultural Inspector c. X.
Macy was shocked last night to learn,
through a dispatch from London car
ried in the Capital News. of the sui
side of his sister-in- law, Mrs. James
7. Macy. The first news of the trag-
edy Mr.. Macy had was from the pub
lished dispatch. He was we'll acquaint-
ed with Mrs Macy prior to and after
her marriage. She had gone to Europe
for the benefit of her health. Details
are lacking as to how she took her
life. 1t is supposed the present Euro
pean war troubles which forced her to
go to London played upon her mind.
The London dispatch stated that Mrs
Macy committed suicide yesterday as
a result of a nervous breakdown caus-
ed by the privations she had under
gone since she was ordered out of her
sick bed at Antwerp on Monday. She
arrived in London seriously ill. Her
mother and child are still i'll Germany.
Inspector Macy is endeavoring to get
in touch with his brother who is be-
lieved to be in the east Their home
is in Denver.
The present situatio in Germany
makes the death of Mrs. Macy and
the unprotected condition of her child
and mother a terrible tragedy. 1t is
almost impossible for the latter to
leave Germany and as difficult for Mr..
Macy to reach them. The fact that
Mrs. Macy took her life abroad will
make it almost impossible to bring the
body back because of the crippled
transportation facilities. Inspector
Macy is anxiously awaiting some word
from his grief stricken brother.

CONDITION OF THE
AMERICANS NOT AS
SERIOUS AS FEARED

Washington, Aug. S.-The first ac-
curate information of the situation of
American tourists in Europe coming to
the war department from military, dip
lomatic and consular representatives
from nearly every important European
city showed conditions to be much less
serious than had been previously re-
ported.
SO encouraging were the reports that
Secretary Garrison, who has charge of
the relief work, predicted very little
would be required in the Vi ay Of trans
portation, and that much less financial
assistance would be required than had
been expected. 1t may be necessary
to dispatch ships 20 only one or two
ports to bring back stranded tourists,
Garrison said
There are 10000 Americans in Eng
land and about 10000 in continental
Europe, the London military attache
of the department cabled after investi-
cation.

HIGH PRICES COMING
AS RESULT Q F WAR

Gloucester. Mass, Aug. Staples
this fall may be a dollar a barrel;
bananas may be a dollar a piece;
wooden goods may be higher; gasoline
may be lower; tires and other rubber
goods may cost more"
These are some of the price charges
that may result from the European
war, according to Roger w. Rabson,
statistician of Wellesley Hills, who
was ask ed tonight what would be the
possible effect OF the war on econ
omic conditions in America The
statistician pointed out tn ht because
there would be a great decrease in ex-
ports of innumerable commodities,
this country should be able to buy at
reduced prices. Prices in general, he
said, probably will be higher on those
articles which are imported, such as
sugar, rice, tea, etc. Flour, he be-
lieyes, should be cheaper, as should
also prices for cotton, meat and ali
grain products.
The packers" he said, however
may put up prices because of war
and then put them up again when the
war is ove-, because peace is declared.

chases."

SYMPATHY SHOW N BY

London, Aug. S.-The Times editor
tally expresses today the profound sat

evidence which the paper says it finds
that the cause for which they are fight
ing has the sympathy of their Ameri-
can kinsmen.
The Times adds that the American
people ARE now beginning to appre-
ciate that the rise of Germany to the
power and influence hitherto enjoyed
by Great Britain would be inimical to
American interests and a menace to
the freedom Of the United States as
a world power"
Referring to President Wilson's offer
of mediation, the Times says that there
is much stern work to be done before
any government is likely to avail itself
Of his proffered services.
