GETTING TOGETHER
!. s. AND MEXICO.
AMERICAN OFFICIALS REClPl-
ENTS OF MUCH ATTENTION BY
PROMINENT MEXlCANS.

There is considerable speculation
regariing the nature of the confer
ence with John Lind, President
Wilson's special representative, Is
holding at Vera Cruz with Nelson
O'Shaughnessy, charge d'affaires OF
the American embassy at the City Of
Mexico.
Diagrams to the New York Times
and the New York Herald agree in
saving that both Americans are the
recipients of considerable attention
at the hands Of prominent MeXicans
in Vera Cruz.
The Herald report says that Mr..
O'Shaughnessy is receiving many at
tendons with MeXicans, holding
amicable conversation with them in
a private car said to have been fur
nished by Provisional President
Huerta, and that the be
lief is entertained that Huerta and
Wilson are getting together Lind
and 'Shaughnessy, the Herald says,
are holding secret conversations.
The Times cable says: John Lind
and Charge 'Shaughnessy contin.
ued their conferences today. The
charge will not return to the City
of Mexico until tomorrow or Sun
day. The charge has been the re-
cipient of considerable attention dur
ing the day from Gen. Mas, Mexican
military commander the latter plac-
ing an automobile at his disposal and
visiting him in his private Pullman
car. Rear Admiral Fletcher, in COM
mand of the American squadron off
VeiA Cruz, will give a. banquet to-
morrow aboard the Dolphin or some
other ship and has invited high
Mexican civil and military authOri-
ties to attend. Dallas News

JUDGE THOMP son
IN THE RACE
CONFIRMS RUMOR THAT HE
WILL ANNOUNCE FOR DISTRICT
JUDGE-FOR SHORT CAMPAIGN.

1t has been rumored for some time
that Judge j. c. Thompson would
make the race for district Judge
and when seen yesterday morning
he confirmed the rumor and in due
time he will make public his an
uouHcement 1t will be remembered
that Judge Thompson made this same
race in 1907 and the official count
showed that he lost the nomination
by only seven votes. He will adhere
to the old democratic custom Of
making the second race when his
margin of loss was so small and
those who enter the race will find
active opposition from the Thomp-
son forces. In commenting further
Judge Thompson said: II will seek
the office solely upon my fitness
and qualifications and will adhere
strictly to the old democratic doe
trine of equal and exact justice to
all and special privileges and favors
to none" He believes the campaign
should be shott one as the people
have the judgment to pass upon the
qualifications of men for public office
without spending so much time away
from their business in attendance
upon political meetings. Judge
Thompson will be an active candi-
date, he is a forceful speaker, he
has lived in this section or the state
for many years and has many close
friends in every section of the dis
trict viii will devote much time and
energy toward his success.

MAY
END THIS SUMNER
REPORT CURRENT THAT FRISCO
WILL BE TAKEN OUT OF RE-
CEIVER'S HANDS SOON.

Fort Worth, Tex, Jan. 10.-lnforma-
tion received in Fort Worth states
the Frisco will, if certain possible
conditions are met, be taken out Of
the hands of receivers some time next
summer, and certainly before the next
crop movement in the southern states.
The plan, as outlined by the powers
that are temporarily in eclipse, con-
templates that the stockholders shall
stand an assessment on their hold
ings. 1t will take less than $l0,OO0,-
O0O to clear the Frisco of court dom
inatiOn, and if the divisor is large
enough, this should not be a real bur
den on any stockholder!
Ii should also be borne in MID the
Frisco has not, even while in the
hands of receivers, defaulted on any
interest due to bond holders Most
bondholders are proverbially safe.
Those who own Frisco bonds are
provenly safe.
Yoakum and Campbell will again
be at the head of the Frisco. accord
ing to reports that have reached this
city. Yoakum is the genius who ANAL
gamated the Frisco system and Camp
bell is the good angel of the line with
the spacious money bag.
A report published in New York
that the Frisco would be cleared of
receivership proceedings by March,
was a bit premature. Several bunch
es of creditors are watching the
movement of this road and it is safe
bet that the protecting arm of the
court Will not be withdrawn until all
these creditors agreed to a day GER
tain for the final standoH
Inasmuch as those who are re
ceivers OF the Frisco, at least in the
main, are Frisco men, the natural pre-
sumption is that the separated system
is now being conducted just like 1t
would be if the courts sustaining arm
had not been invoked.
1t is entirely possible that if the
stockholders of the Frisco agree to
chip in and raise the $lO0OO,OOO need
ed the road may get clear of the
clutches of receivership before sum
mCr Stockholders, however in the
past have not broken any speed rec
ords in the MATTER of digging to pay
dofunct companies out of receiver
ships.
That a plan definite TO unreceiyer-
ship the Frisco, however has been
agreed upon will be read with much
interest in this section of Texas.
hope is felt the Frisco, when reor-
ganized, will secure enough money
