PAVING COMMISSIONERS REFUSE TO PERMIT COMPROMISE MON.
 EY TO GO TO CITY.
Council Committee Will Report Back at the Next Meeting and Then An. other Move to Settle Matter Will Be Taken Up.

The $7,400 which has been received from the Barber Asphalt Company as compromise in the matter of main taining Central avenue paving, is still in the hands of the attorneys for this company.
 Yesterday morning the commission. CTS of the paving district and special council committee sought to reach an agreement as to the dispo. sition of the money. No agreement was reached.
 The council committee made the de, mand that the money be delivered over to the city for general use, or for whatever use the city might best make of the fund. Just now 1t is said the money would tide the city over a period of financial stringency.
 The commissioners were certain that their obligation to the property owners of the district would not per init them to give a release of the money unless it was placed by the city into a special fund and to be drawn only for the upkeep of Central avenue, and for no other purpose.
 The council committee will report that attitude back to the commission CTS next week for some further action on the part of the council.

Red Cross Will Get Profits on the Deal.-Board Suggests That Half of Money Be Expended in Texas.

A gentle wind whisked a slip of paper from the desk of General Man. aoer w. F. Saunders in the Business Mems League in St Louis, and when a newspaper man picked it up he found it was a check for S100,000. The ! check, which was drawn on the St. Louis Union Trust Company, was made payable to the Buy-a Bale Com mittee of St. Louis and was signed by Robert Holm, treasurer of the An heuser-Busch Brewing association. A. L. Shapeigh met by invitation with the directors of the brewing as sociation yesterday to present the piea of the Buy-a-Bale Committee. When he left the directors room he bore the following letter, addressed to himself:
 At a meeting of our board of direc- tors, called today for the purpose of considering the buy-a bale-ofcotton movement it was unanimously resolv, ed that this association purchase, and you are now authorized to purchase, immediately on behalf of this associa, ton, $100O00 worth of cotton at the current market price.
 Our directors also disclalm any desire to make any profit for the as. sociation out of the purchase of this cotton and we authorize you to al. ply any profits that may arise from this purchase to the work of the Ma tional Red Cross association.
 Tt gives us pleasure to cooperate in this excellent movement for the re lief of the southern states in the present cotton-marketing crisis, and We sincerely hope you will receive the liberal support of the large industries throu2hout the United States. to whom the stability of all the Southern trade is so vital

Des Moines, Ia, Nov. 3.-Indica-

positively to the reelection of Sena-
tor Albert Cummins, Republican, by
a plurality estimated at $4,000 over
Maurice Connolly. Democrat, and
Casper Schenk. Progressive. Enough
of the vote was in hand to make
certain the senior Iowa Senator's

gressive candidate. fell far behind
what was estimated to be his full
strength.
In the Governorship race. Clarke.
Republican, had a lead of slightly
more than 1000 votes over John T.

mated that Clarke's plurality would
be close to $1,000. 1t was practi-
cally certain that Republican candi-
dates for Congress had been elected in
all districts except the second and
third.

The note, while disavowing any

in the attitude that the central Gov

guarantee the interests of those Mex
lean residents of Vera Cruz whose
names are said to be listed for pun
ishment by the Carranza Govepn-
ment because of alleged sympathies
not in accord with the Constitution

adjustment of the customs also was
insisted upon. 1t was explained that

wholly insufficient for the purpose of
the American Government.

Willis. Republican, defeated Gov

according to returns received today
Gov. Cox conceded his defeat today
and sent a message of congratulatior
to his successful opponent.
The returns on the governorshir
are meager, but from figures at hand
it is estimated Willis will have
from 5000 to $4,000 votes more
than Cox. Unofficial returns from
the lightweight counties in Ohio. re-
ceived at Republican state headquar-
tiers. give Willis plurality of TO-
$50 over Cox.
Former Lieut.. Gov. Warren G.
Harding was elected United States
senator by larger vote than that
given Willis. He will succeed The
odore Z. Burton.
Returns on state offices also are in

Urged to Rise Against Americans.
Mexico City. Nov. 3.-When it be-
came generally known today that the
Washington Government had failed
to comply with the request Of the
Mexican foreign Office that the Unit
ed States fix a definite date for the
evacuation of Vera Cruz, thousands
of proclamations, purporting to be
signed by Mexican Scottish Rite Ma
sons, were distributed, calling upon
the citizens to arm themselves
and drive the invading foreigners
from the shores of Mexico.
The police were busy arresting
boys who were distributing these
posters and tearing off papers pasted
on walls in spite of their vigilance.
The proclamation bore the names Of
many well-known Mexicans. One par
agraph said:
I'm compliance with one of our
fundamental principles of Masonry
we declare to the nation that we are
obliged to respect the life of man.
but at the same time we are ordered
as a single exception, to take up arms
in defense of national integrity. 1t
is hidden from no one that the for
eigner continues with his foot on our
territory. which is staining our hon
or. Explanations are over and there
only remains now to repel this tute-
lage.
"We have faith in the integrity
and ability of our Government to
watch our sovereignty, but as a pre-
caution and in compliance with our
oaths we call upon our brothers. and
all good men will comply with their
patriotic duty. The Masonic bodies OF
the entire world. and especially those
of the United States, have been noti-
fled of our action and they will un-
Judge US In accordance
with the tenets Of Masonry and pa
triotism."
The latest Washington note. which
was a reply to Mexico's communica-
ton asking Washington to fix def
mite date for the evacuation of Vera
Cruz, was handed to the Mexican
