The warm weather of the past few days has been the means of bring ing the canteloupes out of the slump into which they had fallen, in excel lent shape For time the continued cold nights had placed the vines in a very backward condition and it was feared for a time that they would not come out in a satisfactory manner. The plants are vining and at the present rate will mature as easrly as upon previous years and the crop will be fully as large. There have been no bother from bugs or other pests this season. which has added to the general good condition Of the crop.

scheme which will give all Mexicans an
equal voice at the polls. This will re-
quire cooperation of all factional
leaders. The mediators themselves are
the ones best fitted to negotiate with
these individuals. as the past efforts
of the United States along this line
have been nullified by Huerta taking
possession of the polling places and by
elections on the ground that they were
not representative.

In every conversation the Secretary

he has emphasized the fact that this
Government is disposed to be gene rously
fair. But he has insisted. however. that
the day of mere promises has passed.
There must come assurances of per-

ators have accepted this to the extent

HOWARD D|SPROvES
BOMBARDMENT TALE

Newspaper reports this mornin gof
bombardment at Manzanilio have
been entirely disproved by a telegram
received from Admira' Howard, in
charge of the ships on the west coast
OF Mexico
This official statement was made
public by the Navy Department today
Secretary Daniels this morning made
a personal request of the press to re-
gard all repots of a sensational ma
IL ewith extreme suspicion If not con-
hrmed by dispatches received at the
Navy Department. He said:
Every happening of the slightest in
terest is being given out promptly by
the department and the Secretary hopes
that unconfirmed rumors will be care
fully investigated and confirmed be-
fore being published. The Secretary de-
sires to thank the press for the care
they have exercised so far, and wishes
to explain that a failure to hear from
the vest coast of Mexico during the day
does not indicate either that anything
is being suppressed or that anything
serious has happened. Communication
with the west coast is largely by wire
less, and unless something of STRAIT
ling nature occurs dispatches are held
until after midnight, when the atmos-
phere conditions are favorable"
The telegram from Admiral Howard
after positively denying reports of a
bombardment, says the Raleigh re-
ports to him that there was a serious
incendiary fire in Manzanillo, which
probably gave rise to the report.
