CHICAGO, January 3.-Raymond Hitch

that mis- man script OF "Dr Fakewelr'

Rurales Ready to Fight.
Col. Gage said the ruraies were well
mounted and equipped and could be de-
pended upon. They have been regularly
paid. he was told. and their commander
contemplates taking the offensive with
this force in the near future against the
various robber bands In the country i'm
mediately about the city.
To the wide publicity given by Ameri-
can newspapers to what are regarded in
Mexico City as exaggerated reports Of
rebel victories along the northern border.
Col. Gage attributed what ne termed
the false and unfortunate impression"
prevailing among Mexicans that the
American public favored the cause of the
rebels in the present revolution. He call
ed attention to statement published in
the United States recently that Mr.
O'Shaughnessy, the American charge
had been forced to take roundabout
course to obtain An interview with Gen
Huerta. AS a matter of fact, Col Gage
said, It was wen known in the Mexican
capital, and publicly apparent, that rela-
lions between the head of the government
and the American official were most cor
dial.
Col. Gage would not discuss the posi-
bility of Intervention In Mexico. saving
that even If his position permitted such
discussion he had been in Mexico too
short time to form an opinion"

City Bank, the Chase National Bank.
Speyer & Co. and other houses or In
ternatioEAi reputation and standing feel
themselves to a great degree responsible
for me combinations they have noated
loaEs and sold stock for.
The moral backing of these immense
houses is behind millions Of dollars worth
Of bonds and stocks in the hands Of hum
dreds of thousands of investors There
must be no step to endanger the invest
ments Of the owners of these securities
or of the concerns that fioated them as
fiscal agents, but there must be care
full. deliberate readjustment of the
methods that enable such powerful con-
troll of the concerns for which financing
has been done.
The example was lately set Of a big
railroad going into the open market for
its loans as against the long-existing
habit of intrusting this work to some one
financial house. which would afterw ard
exercise enormous influence because OF Its
financing. The competition thus brought
about Is said to have been successful ana
left the railroad under no important obli-
cation to the bank that purchased and
distributed the securities. 1t was not nec-
essary that some one representing the
bank should be put upon the board of di-
rectors as part of the bargain. 1t was
a case OF open competition. open solicita-
ton for the money that was needed and
the open sale of the securities to the con-
Germ paying the best price.
In one of his speeches Mr.. Wilson conf
pared this delicate situation and the dis
section that must certainly come to the
serious operation Of a great surgeon, who
must know every part OF the anatomy
Of his patient; know how far the knife
should penetrate and how far he my

Wants Congress to Act.
Congress will be urged to investigate
of copper miners at Calumet shortly
after it reassembles, Representative
Hensley of Missouri announced today.
Such an inquiry. Mr.. Hensley asserts
is of vital Importance TO the country.
and he plans to confer with his associ-
ates in Congress on the subject. Mr..
Macdonald has Il resolution pending for
an investigation. but many members of
the rules committee, that is considering
the question, are understood to be
against such an inquiry. Mr.. Heusley
has been studying the strike situation,
and said today that he plans to take
up the fight in behalf Of the investi-
cation with as many of the membership
of the House as possible.
Representative Evans OF Montana be-
lieves that public opinion will be sufff-
cient to correct evils existing in the
mines If the public may learn the truth
about those conditions. He proposes
federal investigation he says, because
it will bring out the truth concerning
the conditions, and this will be sufficient
to bring about the needed results. AT
present, he asserts, it is not possible
for the public to know the true condi-
lions at Calumet.

Morgan Firms Withdrawal
Will Not Change Program
of Department of Commerce

Commenting on the action Of j. p. Nor
gan in Withdrawing support from many
big corporations of the country, Secre-
tary Kedfield Of the Department OF Conn.,
merce said: 1T is a good step forward"
Further than this Mr.. Redfieid would
say nothing.
No change in the plans Of the Depart
ment Of Commerce for investigating
trusts, nor in its study of their economic
efficiency. is to be made as a result OF the
withdrawal of Morgan e. Co. from the
directorate. The withdrawal OF the
Morgan Arm. it was pointed out today.
would not make present work OF any iess
value for future legislative efforts in
bringing the trusts into line with gov
eminent policy.
Secretary Redfield has asked for an in
crease Of appropriation for the bureau OF
corporations from $4,000 to s6S5.O00.
Much of that enlarged fund he desires to
use on "undertaking study OF certain
fundamental economic laws on which all
our industries are based"
Secretary Redfeld's expressed opinion
Is that the duty of the bureau of corpora
lions is Ito gather information of a
broader and more comprehensive char
acter with reference to industrial condi-
lions pertaining to interstate commerce.
so far as they have to do with corpora
tons, than would be entailed in the in
yestigation of isolated industries. He
holds that the massing OF capital has In
II certain elements of efficiency, but
doubts whether IL is for the best interests
of the country as a whole.
