perhaps only a prairie dog can see.
Yet humanity loves to see a car
come dashing into a crowded street,
flash across a tape, and be greeted
by the officials with a waving of
checkered flags and a clicking Of
stop watches And il is for this tiny
bit of the road racing game that they
pay SO big to see, For it is the peo
rle, the business men, VINO contribute
the funds necessary for road race
promotion.
There was one race, however that
was not quite so obscure. But it was
only by good luck that the Los An
seles special was able TO give its gay
band an occasional sight of the thrills
that make NJ the hidden portion of
the great competition. Following the
course of the racers in special

near the straight awaYs, where he

supreme excitement for the HoWdN

The offense Of wearing old num-

just now because the blue and white
tags are good for only six more
weeks of wear, and purchasers of
new cars are loath to put up the tax
for that length of time.

and Japan Into Fold.

Secretary Of State Bryan Is most ear
nestly endeavoring to bring Germany,
Austria, and Japan into the Bryan peace
treaty fold. they being the only powers
which have not signed one OF these agree
ments with the United States
At Mr.. Bryan's request, the German
Ambassador today called at the State
Department, and received from Mr..
Bryan's hands copies Of the treaties re-
Gently signed with Great Britain. France,
Spain. and Russia. The desire Of the
United States TO include all nations in
these cOmpacts which provide not for
arbitration and settlement OF disputes, as
many persons suppose. but for their sub
mission to an investigating commission
for report was explained TO Ambassador
Bernstorff and he was asked TO call to
the attention OF his government the fact
that the other great powers OF Europe
are agreeing to these conventions.
Ambassador Bernstorn made no COM
ment following his interview with Mr
Bryan except to state that he had no
instructions from his government in re-
gard to the peace treaties.
Secretary Bryan has also sent to Am
ba-ssador Dumba. Of Austria-Hungary,
copies Of the recently signed treaties,
with expressions Of the desire Of this
government to negotiate such n treaty

WOUNDED MEXICANS
NOT TO BE GIVEN AID
U. S. Government Has Decided Cen
erosity Has Been Imposed Upon
During Last Four Years.

There will be no reception OF the
Mexican wounded by American army Of
fiers at Naco, Ariz-. opposite Naco, So
nora, where Villista and .Carranzista
forces are reported as about to engage
in another battle.
1t has been decided by the State and
War Departments that It is not the
duty Of the United States government to
take care of Mexicans who may be
wounded in fighting between the Mexi-
can factions at this time, and officers sta
toned on the border have been SO in
formed.
This decision resulted from the appli-
cation made Sunday on behalf Of twen-
ty-hve Mexicans wounded In the Tight
ing which has already occurred, that
they be brought into the United States
army camps and be given shelter and
medical treatment American officials
have reached the conclusion that the gen.
erosity and humanity Of the United
States government has been much i'm
posed upon by the Mexican combatants
in the last four years, thousands of
whom have been sheltered, fed. and
medically treated at the expense of the
United States.
Secretary Bryan finds in the advices
him from Mexico, basis for the
belief that everything II progreAsinE most
toward peace, and that the
conference to be held at Aguascalientes
next Saturday will effect an amicabIe
settlement OF all the present issues. He
expects John r. Silliman. who has been
with CarranZa for the last two months.
to arrive in Washington in a day or two
and report on the situation up to the

Berlin. Oct 5.-That England is

Though ONCE rich,
HE DIES in POVERTY
Samuel Riley. Seventy-six Years Old.
Succumbs to Fall from
Street Car.
LIVED AT MISSION HOUSE

Once wealthy. but through his gener-
osity a victim OF misplaced confidence,
Samuel Riley seventy-siK years old. for
the past ten years occupying a room
at Central Union Mission. died at
Emergency Hospital last night prac-
tically penniless.
Friday afternoon he fell from a
street car at Sixth street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue northwest, breaking his
right collarbOne and receiving a con-
cussion of the brain. He was re-
moved to Emergency Hospital, where
he died without the comfort Of visits
fro mhis own people.
Forty years ago he was a prominent
meat merchant, and amassed a small
fortune. He lent his money to al
legged friends Several years ago he
became separated from his relatives,
and drifted to the care OF the Central
Union Mission. where he earned lodging
by acting as watchman, and later fore
man Of the woodward.
Upon his death last night, Emergency
Hospital and the police department had
no trace OF his relatives. but they were
located through the Central Union Mis-
sion anda the police reporter Of The
Washington Herald. The body was taken
to the morgue. but whether It will rest
in the pOtter's field cannot be learned
until his relatives signify their willing
ness to inter it, or the Central Union
Mission gives burial
He leaves a sister. Mrs. Katherine

ter, Miss Florence Riley. whose address
in this city could not be learned; five

By day marked successes have been
gained In this direction.
Attention also is called to the fact that
the Germans now appear to have received
all the re-enforcements that it is possible
TO drain from the right and center of their
line and that further pursuance OF the
northerly extension of the allied attack
ing line is sure to cause the German
line to bend. II not to break. In this
event the result will be a much greater
gain for the allies, for instead OF forcing
German retreat. a wedge can then be
thrown in at the weak spot and the
enemy cut of, thus reducing by the total
strength Of this isolated army the ef-
fective fighting strength of the enemy |

pected that the caucus will complete
its work today, although to do SO 1t
may be necessary to have a meeting that
will extend into the night The bill will
go into the Senate. probably. Thursday
morning and will take ten days or two
weeks TO pass. II is the only measure
that stands in the way OF the adjourn
ment of Congress on the Senate side Of
the Capitol.
At the meeting Of the Democratic mem
bers Of the Finance Committee yesterday
the insurance tax was disposed Of The
committee decided that life insurance
and casualty insurance policies should
not be taxed and struck out the House
provisions to that effect. but retained
the House proposed tax on fire and marine
insurance policies. The administrative
features were not materially changed
from the form in which the House left
them.
A committee, composed OF Senators
Stone, Johnson and Hughes. reported in
favor Of striking out the tax on bank
capital and submitting a stamp tax on ne
gotiable instruments. Senator Hughes
did not concur in the action taken by
his two colleagues. When the full Dem
Ocratic membership Of the committee got
to work on the subcommittee's recon-
mendation II struck out the tax on ne
Gotiable instruments and restored the
House provision for the tax on bank
capital and surplus. The subcommittee
reported that automobiles should bear the
entire tax instead of gasoline. The SEN
ate committee compromised the matter
as between the House, which had laid
the tax on gasoline and omitted to tax
automobiles.
The stamp tax will be contested. the /
wine tax. which presents an issue be- |
tween the California producers and |
those OF Ohio and Missouri. and many |
new methods of raising the revenues !
will be offered by Senators.
