Biles, wife of Sir John Harvard Biles,

down the ways she created a record
which bids fair TO remain unbroken

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3O.-Presiden'

". The president received word TO
day from Seth Low, OF New York, It's
chairman, that he Is ready To begin
negotiations for a permanent settle
ment at once. He and his associates
Patrick Gilday. of Clearfeld, Pa, and
Charles w. Mills, of Philadelphia, Will
arrange to meet at once with the Col
orado operators. The representatives
OF the department OF labor now In
Colarod. have been instructed TO con
fer with the leaders OF the mining cor
porations, and plan the work for the
new commission.
The president is confident that his
commission will have the same sue
cess in settling the present trouble
as did that OF Col. Roosevelt in the
Pennsylvania anthracite conflict. He
believes that the commission VIII
evolve a plan of settlement that Will
permit the reopening OF the mines
and the withdrawal OF the federal
troops. He IL convinced that al
though the representatives rejected

official commission, the standing OF
the men on the present body is such
that any effort they may make for
peace will be welcomed by all con-
cerned.
IL his plans work out, II is believed
the president will suggest that a COM
mission OF this sort be created by
congress for future action In similar
controversies. The success OF the
federal mediation commission. which
has settled all railroad disputes with
out strike since its inception. has con.
vinced the president that some such
body should be in existence to act In
other Industries. ....
Meanwhile, ii is stated that the fed

By J. w. r. MASON,
(Former European Manager Of the
United Presa.D


NEW YORK. Nov. 30.-tft q.
m.)-The fourth month OF Eu-
ropes war ends today with Field
Marshal Sir John French admit
ting that the allied troops in
France and Belgium are outnum-
bered by the Germans. This is
the most significant statement
that has been made in any OF the
British reports which now for the
first time seek to allay criticism
at home by giving credit to the
individual units of England's ex.
peditionary army. The British
commander-in-chie takes his. ma
ton and the world into his con-
fidence, despite the early mar
tinet rules laid down by Lord
Kitchener, and confesses that
from the commencement OF the
war to the present time, 1t has
been impossible for the allies to
continue a sustained offensive be-
cause they have had less men
than the Germans. Only tactical
errors by the Germans have given
the allies the two positive Often
sive victories they have secured
the battle OF the Marne and the
battle OF st. Omer and Haze
brouck. This latter fight was the
result OF the German drive 80
miles west Of Lille. which carried
them within % miles OF Calais.
The arrival OF the English from
the Aisne forced the Germans to
retreat the whole Of the 80 miles
back to Lille.
Sir John Frenoh's declaration
that the Germans outnumber the
allies and that an offensive cam
paign has been impossible must
be accepted as positive fact,
not as an excuse pu. forward to
explain away the paucity OF al
lied victories. An official Paris
report last week made the same
confession. In this latter state
ment, the Germans we're credited
with having so army corps in the
western battle area, which prob
ably total 1000, 900 men.
A revision of credit for the
deeds OF the first four months OF
the war Is, therefore, necessary.
The Germans have proved them
selves to possess superiority OF
equipment over the allies. Lack
OF equipment undoubtedly Is the
principal cause why the allies
have been unable to oppose SUI
perior numbers TO the Germans
whose own army Is divided be-
tween east and west. Not only In
preparedness before the war be-
gan. but In productivity since hos.
tilltIes started, the Germans have
shown themselves to be the bet

WASHINGTON, Nov. S0.--With
three distinct governments proclaimed
| In Mexico and others believed ready
I to burst into bloom. the beginning OF
battle royal which will show one
distinct faction supreme. was In sight
today. The latest claimant reported.
Gen. Pablo Gonzales. has heretofore
been looked upon as one Of CarrsnIas
chief supporters and his reported de-
feotion may prove serious to the for
mer frst chief.
Gonzales Is reported at Pachuca' AZ
miles northeast OF Mexico City with
the outposts OF Villas army in close
proximity. News of lighting between
them was expected. At the same time
Carranzista and villa forces are rae
ing for Tampico where Gen. Luis
Caballero has repudiated Carranza
and declared for Villa and the Gutieb-
req government.
Mexico City, now held by Zapata
troops with several OF Villas veteran
regiments In reserve Is reported
quiet. The reorganized police force
Is In complete control and all threat
ened rioting Is being effectively
stamped out.
Vera Cruz with CarranIa IN charge
Is also tranquil although lighting 70
reported between there and Mexico
City. Unofficial reports that Carranza
has demanded the withdrawal OF the
battleships now in the harbor are not
treated seriously In administrator
circles. II Is said that, II such de-
mand has been made, II IL for home
consumption" and with no belief that
II viii be acceded to.
The administration expects general
fighting at many points in Mexico
during the next few weeks. II be-
lieves that II Is necessary TO clear
the air and show who really Is in
control. Meantime the government
will devote all of It's energies to see
ing that foreign interests are protect
ed while the Mexicans work out their
own salvation"
Ell PASO, Texas, Nov. 3o.-Gen.
Felipe Angeles. chief lieutenant or
villa, is enroute to Mexico City to-
day with an infantry division with in
structions to protect the foreign lega-
tons. Villa ordered Angeles TO the
capital when the latter returned to
Tula after capturing Guadalajara, but
dispatches early today said that villa
himself has not yet decided to enter
Mexico City at once.
The Zapata forces In Mexico City
sent a special train and delegation
to Tula Sunday TO escort Villa 10 the
capital Their plans called for his
triumphal entry into the city today,
but for some reason the northern
leader delayed his entry and was re-
ported among Villista leaders at
Juarez, that Villas leader entering
the capital, may decide to move at
once against Gen. Pablo Gonzales,
who is reported TO have repudiated
both Carranza and the Aguas Calien.
