such extension.
Calls for payment of subscriptions
to Class A certificates shall be made
as nearly pro rata as possible. In the
event that on February /, 1915, ap-
plication for loans shall not have
keen received to the extent of the full

STATEMENT I

We have received from State Audit
or Carl Jorgenson most complete and
: comprehensive statement Of the finan.
rial condition of the state and Of all
monies received and paid out during
the year 1914. This statement shows
that our state is in d splendid tinan-
"ial condition, and the manner in
which Mr.. Jcsgenson presents the mat
ter goes to show that he. knows his
business. 1t goes without saying that
Mr.. Jorgenson has made one of the
best officials that our state has ever
had and that he conducts his office II.
first class manner. Probably no OF
ficer in the state has given his Office
closer personal attention than Mr..
rSens0n.

BODIES Of THREE ARE
FOUND IN A SWAMP
Indications Man Murders Wife and
Her Mother, Then

ATLANTA. Ga, July s.-The bodies of
8. F. Bennett and two women who. later,
were identified as Mrs. Matte Tolbert.
BENEFITS mother-in-law, and Mrs. Flossie
Bennett her daughter. were found In a
swamp at East Point. suburb of At
lanta, early today. Wounds indicated
that all three had been shot The bodies
of the women were covered with brush,

few yards away. The coroner OF Fulton

Mrs F1ossie Bennett was seventeen
years old. Bennett was a brother OF N.
o. Bennett. member of the legislature

to death
The officers said there were signs OF
q struggle. the underbrush and weeds
being trampled for distance of several
yards around the spot where Benefits

TO PROTECT OIL FIELDS.
Admiral Mayo Gets Promise From
Rebel Commander at Pauueo.

Cneasiness in official circles over dis
turbed conditions in the Tampico and
Panuco oil regions where oil operators
have been reticent about paying con-
tributions to the constitutionalistc cause.
was considerably allayed by a report
from Admiral Mayo.
Secretary Daniels gave out this state
ment based upon the report:
Advice is at hand that Admiral
Mayo visited Panuco yesterday in
company with the American consul. and
had an interview with the military
commander and a number of Americans
and had received promises from the
military commander for the protection
of foreigners. Admiral Mayo feels
that his visit has had good effect
and there will be no further cause for
complaint. Oil company officials have
been sufficiently treasured by the rep
RESERVATIONS made to Admiral Mayo to
direct the return of their employees to
the oil fields. The employees will go
back to work at once"
Admiral Mayo made no mention of a
reported order for the surrender by
Americans in the Tampico district of
all arms and ammunition to the civil
authorities. This order was said to
