Editor Of Evening Capital.
am enclosing a clipping from the
Baltimore SUI Of yesterday Sunday
with the requts that you print it in
your paper. The statements referred
to IN this. letter from Miss Blackwell
were made at the "snti" hearing IN
the House Of Delegates slso with some
others which have been contradicted
by the President Of the international
Woman's Suffrage Association. II
may be intert sting 70 others who
heard Mr.. Underhill, az ii has been 10
me to read what Miss Blackwell has
TO say upon the subject.
SUFFRAGIST.
To the Editor OF The Sun Sir At
a recent legislative hearing 10 Mary
land Mr.. Charles l.. undsrhill, Of
Massachusetts, is reported 70 have
said that the advocates Of woman
suffrage in his State are treated less
respectfully by the members Of the
Legislature now than they were some
years ago. A few years ago the con-
stitutionsl amendment for which we
were petitioning got only I votes 10
the House Of Representatives. Last
year it got LA. Oar measure is GER
tainly treated with much more re-
spect, and it seems to some Of us
that we are treated with more our
selves.
Mr.. Underhill is hardly in a posi-
ton to take an unprejudiced view Of
the suffrage moyemt Ut in Massachu-
setts. He is one Of four candidates
for the Legislature whom the suffra-
gistsfare credited with having recent
ly defeated. Since then he has taken
the stump in opposition to votes for
women and has been speaking against
woman suffrage in New York, Phila-
delphia, Washington and other cities.
The Massachusetts Woman SUI
rage Association has obtained from
the Legislature during the past forty
our years a long series of legal
chances, enlarging the personal and
property rights Of married women
and has good hope OF securing this
year the submission of the nstitu-
tional amendment entrauchising wo-
men which mas been tavorably re-
ported by the Committee on Consti-
tutiopal Anne ndments, to 2.

B,v Scouts Want a Boat.

Looking around for a boat Of some
description TO be used by the Boy
Scouts, General Secretary Martin Of
the Boy Scouts Of America, visited
the Naval Academy few days ago
and conferred with the authorities
Mr.. Martin bore letter from Score
tary of.the Navy Daniels, with whom
he first conferred TO learn whether the
department would place vessel at
the disposal of the Boy Scouts.
Secretary Daniels suggested 30 Mr..
Martin that he visit the nearby naval
stations and learn whe Their either of
them had boat avilable for the pur-
pose. That was what brought Mr.
Martin to Annapolis. The Boy Scouts
have site on the Eastern Shore for
a camp the coming summer, and it is
desired to have vessel for instruc-
tion purposes.

WILSON GIVES HIS VIEWS

Following is the official statement is
sued as representing the views Of
President Wilson and the administra-
ton on Mexico:
In discussions in official circles In
Washington of the present Mexican
situation the following points have
been very much dwelt upon:
1T has been pointed out that, in
considering the present somewhat
delicate situation in Mexico, the un-
pleasant incident at Tampico must not
be thought of alone. For some time
past the de facto government of Mex
leo has seemed to think mere apollo
gies sufficient when the rights Of
American citizens or the dignity Of
the government OF the United States
we're involved and has apparently
made no attempt at either reparation
or the effective correction of the seri-
GUS derelictions of its civil and mill
tary officers.
Orderly Placed In jail.
Immediately after the incident at
Tampico an orderly from one of the
ships of the United States in the har.
Dor Of Vera Cruz, who had been sent
ashore to the post Office for the ships
mail, and who was in uniform and
who had the official mail bag on his
back, was arrested and put into Jail
by the local authorities. He was sub
sequently released and nominal pun
ishment was inflicted upon the officer
who arrested him, but 1t was signifi-
cant that an orderly from the feet Of
the United States was picked out
from the many persons constantly CO.
ing shore on various errands, from
the various ships in the harbor, rep
resenting several nations.
Official Dispatch Withheld.
Most serious Of all, the officials in
charge Of the telegraph office at Mex
leo City presumed to withhold an off,
cial dispatch Of the government of the
United States to it's embassy at Mex
leo City, until It should have been
sent to the censor and his permission
received to deliver It, and gave the
dispatch into the hands of the charge
d'affaires Of the United States only
upon his personal and emphatic de-
mand, he having in the meantime
learned through other channels that
a dispatch had been sent him which
he had not received.
United States Singled Out.
ut cannot but strike anyone who
has watched the course of events in
Mexico as significant that untoward
incidents such az these have not &C.
Cured in any case where representa-
tives Of other governments we're con-
cerned, but only in dealings with rep.
resentatives Of the United States, and
that there has been no occasion for
other governments to call attention to
such matters or to ask for apologies.
These repeated offenses against
the rights and dignity of the United
States, offenses not duplicated with
regard to the representatives OF other
governments, have necessarily made
the impression that the government
Of the United States was singled out
for manifestations of Ill will and con-
tempt"

Tho success Label.

Upton Sinclair, commenting in Bal
timore on the enormous fortunes now
existing In America, said:
"In no other place the world over
are such fortunes to be found. One
reason is that our laws regulating
financial transactions are less strin-
gent than those of other countries,
and another reason is that even where
we have laws our magnates- forget
about them.

with a laugh, "the histories of some
of our largest American fortunes show

THE INSULT AT TAMPICo

Friday morning. April 10, a boats
crew of United States marines, in
command of Assistant Paymaster
Charles C. Copp, left the gunboat Dol.
phine for Tamplco to get fresh sup.
ply Of gasoline.
The United States flag was flying
from the stern of the whaleboat when
1t approached the landing in Tampico.
For no assigned cause Assistant
Paymaster Copp and his men were
placed under arrest as they stepped
ashore.
After the Americans had been de-
tanned several hours, word of their ar
rest was carried to Rear Admiral
Mayo, who demanded their immediate
release.
The demand was complied with, but
the only reparation made was brief
expression of regret for the alleged
mistake.
