Mexican Dictator and Minister Will,

Vera Cruz, July l2.-To save MS
cvountry front he horrors of civil war
and his capital from capture and
perhaps, sacking by victorious
army, General Huerta intends to re-
sign the provisional Presidency and
leave Mexico.
This was the confident belief here
today following the arrival Of Roo-.
erto Esteva Riuz, former acting MN
ister of foreign legations, who de-
cIared that before he left Mexico
City he understood Huerta was to
submit his resignation to congress
within the next few days.
1t would cause no surprise mere
if General Huerta announced his re-
tirement today. The dictator has IN
vited newspapermen in the capital

expected he might make this state
ment then.
With General Huerta it is consld-
cred certain that General banquet,

there is a possibility that the relns

ister of commerce, Querido Moheno,

carrying with them fortunes aggre-
eating several rnilion dollars.
Il was the opinion of Ruiz that
Carbajal, who will become President
unon the flight of Huerta, will be
acceptable to General Carranza.
This is not borne out, however, by
adviccs received by the Constitution
aiist agent here. Carranza, 1t Is
said, will not recognize anyone who
may assume control through the
choice of Huerta.

WORKING CHILDREN
Charges Traffic in Permits-Repre-
sentatives Demand that Sunday
Laws Be Enforced.

Richmond July 13.--Candldates ~
dorsed by the Virginia State feuer-
alton of Labor will be put IN the
field in the next legislative campaign
in all cities and counties where the
present representatives are not sa1-
isfactory to the unions.
That plan was practically decided
upon at a special meeting OF the
executive board of the Virginia State
Federation of Labor held in Mur-
phys Hotel annex yesterday after
noon. The meeting was called by
President Emmett c. Dawson, OF
the State Federation, who returned
last Saturday night from the coal
fields in the western part of the
State, where he had been assisting in
the adjustment of questions involved
in the miners strike.
The object of the conference called
by Mr.. Dawson was to consider sew
eral labor questions which have been
recently brought conspicuously be-
fore the public by the activities OF
the State Department of Labor.
Principal among these Is the dlsre-
gard of the law prohibiting Sunday
labor, the illegal employing of chill
dren under age by manufacturers
and the sale of permits by peace JUS
,ticea in different mag;ster;aa= dis
tricts throughout the State.
President Dawson openly charged
certain magistrates in county dis
tricts, whose identity he made known,
with selling permits at 80 cents each,
.nabling children of tender years to
be put to work. He accused one
magistrate of selling $50 of these
permits at so cents each. Among
those present at the meeting Of the
executive board were H. T. Colvln,
md C. II. Perry, of Alexandria.
