ESCAPE OF LOPEZ
DEEMED PROBABLE

Bingham. Utah. Jan. 5.-That the
nan whose wits are as quick as his
trigger finger had escaped from the
Utah Apex mine, was the growing be-
lief of those Who continued to search
for Ralph Lopez today. Nothing had
been found SO far to indicate whether

outcome. As the day wore on the odds

LONDON NEWSPAPER
CRITICISES POLICY OF
THE UNITED STATES.
Thinks Uncle Sam Should Re-
store Order in Mexico
Immediately.

London, Jan. 5.-The Spectator. in an
article today on the Mexican situation.
declares that the pressure of public
opinion in all the rest of the world soon
will force the United States to Inter
vene in Mexico. The article points out
that President Wilson made a mistake
in not assuming that President Huerta
would be the strongest force with
which to bring about peace in Mexico.
and in supporting him accordingly;
but it adds that it understands per-
fectly the reason why Mr.. Wilson did
not adopt such a course.
Unsteady" the article says, h did
what. with all respect, we must say
was the worst thing he could have
not to be Intervening; he deprecated
bloodshed and anarchy and yet he
would neither stop 1T himself nor let
anyone else do it. The only
way left for the United States Is for
themselves to restore order In Mexico"
The Spectator believes that joint
action by other powers with the United
States in Mexico Is impossible n that
the United States will have to act alone
or sacrifice the Monroe doctrine. which
1t is not likely to do. The article says
that it would prove an easy conquest

quest would be succeeded b. q demand

HERD OF GOATS MISTAKEN
FOR HOSTILE REBEL ARM

Mexico City. Jan. 5.-Such a state of
excitement has been brought about in
the city of San Luis Potosi by the re-
ported imminence Of a rebel attack
that s. panic broke out among the in
habitants on New Years day when a
herd of goats approached TIE place, ac-
cording to a correspondent writing to
the federal capital.
The writer says the rumors of the
proximity of rebel columns, the news
of the d~ynamiting of trains and the
bringing into the city of a number of
wounded federals had worked the peo-
pie up to a high pitch Of excitement.
Suddendly, on January l. a cloud of
dust appeared on a suburban roadway
and virtually everybody in San LNis
Potosi believed the hour of attack had
arrived. Stores and houses were hur-
riedly closed and the doors barricaded,
attachments Of troops and armed police
with annon Were rushed through the
streets to the points which had been
chosen for the defense.
Soon afterward it was discovered
that the ALARM had been caused by
GONE 500 goats being driven to market.
and the tension Immediately relaxed.
The New Years day bull fight. parade
and other festivities then proceeded as
usual.

HOUSE OF MORGAN

Washington. Jan. 5.-The action of

The result of the scrutiny to date as
interpreted here, makes the retirements

crates less important than appeared

pears doubtful whether the power of
the great house is all deprecated by
its action.

PROTEST AGAINST GIVEN
CAUSE OF ATHLETES DEATH

Boston, IAN. 5.-A protest against
the report of a committee at this
weeks meeting of the National COL
legiate Athletic association, in New
York, concerning the death of Werner
S. Belyea. of the Norwich university
football team, has been made by
Nathan A. Tufts, of Waltham, referee
of the Norwich-H Holy Cross game in
which Beiyea was injured. Mr.. Tufts
in a letter to DIR. George w. .Buler, of
the University of Wisconsin, chairman
of the committee, takes exceptions to
the committees report that Belyea's
death was due to "a fierce and I'M
necessary tackle, which broke his back,
after he had already been tackled and
downed."
The latter says there was no un-
necessary r~oughness and calls atten-
ton to the fact that Belyea was badly
hurt in the observation-disclosures game
in 1912, of which Mr.. Tufts also was
referee.

FINANCIAL WORLD HASTENS TO

New York, Jan. 5.-The
ment of the retirement of j. P. Nor
gan and fou of his partners from h
80 directorships in q corporations, and
Mr.. Morgan's reference to the change
in public sentiment in regard to d.
fact that five important recommended
lions of the Pujo committee We're al
ready being put int effect in advance
of legislation requiring them.
They include the abandonment of ifs
cal agency agreements, such as existed
between the New Haven and Morgan

directorates. the abolition of voting
trusts, reforms in the stock exchange
and reforms in the clearing house.
George F. Baker, chairman of the

one Of the dominant figures in the

soon to withdraw from the boards Of

titled.

Whether Mr.. Morgan will decide to
withdraw from the directorate of the

subject of q great deal O. speculation

his son will consider it his duty to re-
main identified with it in an active
capacity, especially until the govern
ment suit has been decided one way
or the other.
However, the Morgan firm was no
less actively identified with the fnan-
cial development OF the New York Cen
trail lines for which Mr.. Morgan was
the banking sponsor throughout the
greater part of his career.
His connection with it dated from the
time of Commodore Vanderbilt and
during the time of.William Vanderbilt
It was through Mr.. Morgan's influence
that English investors placed enormous
sums of money in the securities of the
road. The resignation of the present
j. p. Morgan from the New York Cen
tral directorate was one of the most
surprising features of his
ment yesterday.
Impressed by Criticism.
j. P. Morgan's friends say that he
has been not only deeply impressed by
the last few years., but thai he has
been deeply grieved over the criticism
OF the firm in connection with the af-
fairs of the New York, New Haven &
Hartford Railroad company.
Robert S. Lovett, chairman of the
oliloA TdCIllC fallfOad IN
commenting today on the Morgan ac-
ton, said:
Il think strong bankers on railroad
boards are very desirable-but it all
depends on who represents the rail-
roads on the board"
A. Barton Hepburn, chairman of the
Chase National bank, expressed the
opinion that interlocking directorates
We're a good thing so long as they did
not result in unlawful monopoly. IT
nave found in my personal experience"
he added, that by being on the boards
of certain corporations I am able to
get a much better knowledge of their
financial standing. Used for such a
purpose, being a director on one or
more corporations is by no means in
furious or unlawful.

ing trusts and combinations. and that
he saw little reason to believe the
mouse of Morgan had weakened Its
grip on business.
Still Hold Influence.
Ee pointed out that the vital thing
was the influence of Morgan & Co. on
the banks, and that while members OF
the company had retired from four diff
ferent banks, nevertheless the COM
any still retains connection with
every n of the banks. This admin
%istration counsellor took the position
that the retirements thus far made
by the house of Morgan constituted an
extremely clever to gain public
support n sympathy. but they in no
ing legislation.
On the other hand, while it is being
insisted in administration circles that
the trust program will be in no way
altered there is clearly a strong ele-
ment among the democrats in
that is convinced a halt should be
called on trust legislation. And it is
to be recalled that it was recently given
out on highest authority here that the
president contemplated nothing radical
against the trusts.
