Democratic Leader Underwood

Mr. Underwood said the country
was facing a worldwide disturbance
OF business conditions and was "suf-
fering in a business way more than
we ever have suffered since the War

pending bill was necessary to meet
an erigency over which the govern

adequate for expenses.
Representative Payne declared the
trade balance against the United

the Democratic tariff law exceeded
2OO,OOO,OOO and the responsibility
for financial troubles now lay at the
door of he Democratic tariff. He as

where the Democrats would get the
100000 to counteract that loss.

A. Rustem Bey Will Return
to Turkey.
CAUSES A SENSATION.
Informs President Wilson That He
Doesn't Alter Views Recently
Expressed i'm Interview.

Washington, Sept. 24.-Ruetcm
Bey, the Turkish ambassador, has
informed President Wilson that he
does not alter the vicws be recently
expressed in a published interview
and will leave the United States
within a fortnight
The ambassador refused to COM
ment further except to say he had
asked his government for leave of
absence which he was certain would
be granted.
The announcement of the ambas-
sador's withdrawal, though not un-
expected, caused a profound sensa-
tion in diplomatic circles.
Coming close on another dipIo-
matte interview yesterday of which
the administration at once took
cognizance, that of Baron on Schoen.
OF the German embassy, on the pos
sibility of war between the United
States and Japan, it was interpreted
as an indication of President Will
sons determination to silence COM
ment by foreign diplomatists, con-
sidered dangerous to the neutrality
of this country. 1t was understood
the President would decline to re-
ceive diplomatists who make COM
ments which he considers obnoxious.
Although Count Won Bernstorff and
Baron Won Schoen have repudiated
the Baron's interview, the state de-
partment, at the direction of the
President, today was still looking
into It.
The Turkish ambassador, in his
interview, considered particularly
Objectionable by the administration.
said the sending OF American war
ships to Turkey in connection with
the report OF uprisngs against
Christians would lead to a serious
situation. At the same time he said
that while massacres had previous
ly occurred in Turkey. they were
the same acts as any people might
commit under provocation. BY wav
OF illustration he reminded the
NLi'll'dl people Oh Jne IyncnlngS or
negroes and the water cures" in
the Philippines
The ambassador later explained to
administration officials personally
and by letter. The President direct
ed Mr.. Bryan to say i'm answer that
the statements made by the ambas-
sador were Objectionable to the
American government and but for
the fact that tense situation exist
ed in Turkey, which he did not desire
to aggravate, the diplomatic i'm
propriety committed by the ambas-
sador might be subject for discus
sion with the Ottoman government
The President asked whether the
ambassador cared to make any ex-
preston and today's announcement
that he did not wish to alter his
views in any way and would leave
in a fortnight was the envoy's reply.

from Carranza, Rafael Zubaran.
head of the constitutionalists agency
at the Mexican embassy, gave out
statement in which he said;
"Contary to Villas denial that he
had arrested General Obergon. the
latest official reports from Mexico
City today made clear that he is still
being held in the territory control
led by Villas forces. In view of this
unjustitiable act on Villas part, Car
rama took precautionary measures
to protect the railroads, giving or
ders to discontinue temporarily ser
vice to the north of Aguas Calientes.
ThereupOn Villa asked the first Chief
for an immediate explanation of
this act. Carranza answered that be-
fore he would vouchsafc Sa C.y'ar-
alton, he demanded on Villas part
