Extended Argument by Attorneys
in Liquor Cases Throws
Schedule Behind.

One hundred and forty-two hearings
on applications for retail liquor Ii
censes had been finished when the ex-
else board adjourned at noon today. Be-
cause of extended arguments by attor-
neys in a number of cases the board is
behind its schedule, but hopes to make
rapid progress next week, when night
sessions will be resumed.
An important ruling by the board to-
day holds that the provision of the ex-
else law that no saloon may be estab-
per cent of the foot frontage is used
for business purposes does not apply
to clubs. The decision is important in
view of the fact that protest has been
made by the Anti-Saloon League
against the granting of barroom privi-
leges to the Metropolitan and Army
and Navy clubs on the ground that
they are in residential sections.
"A. E. Shoemaker. attorney for the
Anti-Saloon League, has entered pro-
test in majority Of the cases that
have been heard. 1t Is expected that
all of next week will be required for

COLEMAN MUST EXPLAIN.
Army officer Summoned for Alleged
Criticisms of German Army.

Secretary Garrison today called upon
Capt. LIE Vert Coleman, U. S. A., who
returned from Europe yesterday with
Assistant Secretary Breckinridge, for
an explanation as to the correctness
of published criticisms of the German
army attributed to him, which officials
deem in violation of President Wilson's q
prohibition of partisan discussion OF
the European war.
Capt. Coleman was quoted as saying
his observation lied to the conclusion
that the so-called German atrocities
were the result of orders from high
German military authorities and not
the work of individuals" and that .the
Germans will never again get as near
to Paris as they have BEEN"

NEW PROVISIONAL REGIME

Cruz by U. S. Forces-Gen. Hill
Repulses Two Assaults.

Preparations are going forward in
Mexico City for setting up a new pro-
visional government, regardless of
Aguascalientes. according to advices
today to the constitutionalist head
quarters here. The headquarters an
nounced that an enumeration had just
been received showing that the forces
under generals loyal to Carranza total
100000 men, while Villa can control
but $4,000.
Word has come from the Mexican
capital, it was said, that no effort will
be made to obtain recognition from the
United States until after the provisional
government has been set up, and in the
meantime the State Department will
not be asked to pass upon pending
questions or take any action that might
imply recognition.
Secretary Garrison again said today
that no date has been set for the
evacuation of Vera Cruz by the Ameri-
can forces. 1t was intimated, however,
that the troops would not leave at
least within the next few days, as
preparations for departure have not
been completed.
Emphasis was laid upon the fact that
Gen. CarranZa has as yet complied with
none of the stipulations laid down by
the United States for the withdrawal
OF the American troops. Chief among
these are guarantee for the safety or
foreigners and others in Vera Cruz as
well as promise from the Mexico City
government not to reimpose the more

withdrawal would not take place be-
fore tomorrow at the earliest. Today
no one would give any indication of the
time of probable departure. Gen. Fun
ston has not reported on an alleged
proclamation of Cen Aguilar to seize

made public the following dispatch
from Gen. Hill, who is defending Naco,
Sonora, against forces of Gov. Mayto-
rena:

day. Skirmishes continue Our posi-
ton is such that the enemy will never

Commission Government Suggested.
A commission form of government for
Mexico until order is restored and the
resumption of full constitutional func-
tions by the people becomes possible.
has been suggested at the informal dis
cussions at Aguascalientes, preceding
the formal meeting between representa-
tives Of Carranza and Villa. This was
reported to the State Department here
last night, and met with prompt rec
ognition as a possible solution for the
vexing problems of the southern re-
public.
The plan. it was believed, would
eliminate the personal rivalry of va
rious factional leaders and lead to
early restoration of a strong central
government. with which the United
States could deal in more direct fash
ion than is possible under present con-
ditions in Mexico.
Details of the proposal were not re-
ceived here, so far as is known, but
officials found somewhat of "A parallel
for the plan in the organization and
powers of the Philippine commission.
They thought it probable such a COM
mission would at first be of a military
nature, largely, since its authority must
be supported by the army, although 1T
might later. through changes in the
personnel, become entirely civil and
provide an easy way for return to con-
stitutional government.

died today.
Cardinal Ferrata was stricken with
appendicitis soon after his appoint
ment by Pope Benedict, September T.
to the Office of papal secretary of state
Was Influential Diplomat.
Cardinal Ferrata was regarded as
having a diplomatic influence such as
comes to few. of the college of cardi-
nails, and for this reason. it is said, the
new Pope, Benedict XIV, chose him as
his secretary of state in succession to
Cardinal Merry del Val, who served
under Plus X.
The cardinal was for six years papal
nuncio at Paris, and it was believed
that during his life the relations be-
tween France and the Vatican would
once again be restored to those of the
most cordial nature in view Of the
friendliness shown him from time to
time by French leaders. His choice as
secretary of state was regarded as
ment, as his relations with the house
of Savoy had always been of the same
cordial nature as those with the
French.
Cardinal Ferrata represented the pa
pacy also, in turn. at Bern and at
Brussels putting an end to the dissen-
sions which had until then embittered
the relations between the state and the
Roman Catholic Church in Switzerland
and Belgium. He was sixty-seven
years of age.
Attended Eucharistic Congress.
Besides serving at these important
posts, Cardinal Ferrata was papal legate
to the Worlds Eucharistic Congress on
the Island of Malta in April, 1913, and on
his return to Rome gave Plus x an ex-
tensive account of 1t.
The cardinal was born at Montefiascono,
diocese of Cradoli, in italy, and was Gre
ated and proclaimed a cardinal June 90.
