Requests Not Answered.


swered, the president believed, because
OF difficulties in communicating with
Villa, who, be supposed. was moving
from place TO place, and with whom
telegraphic communication was slow.
The president had heard of no refusal
by Villa to receive the messages of the
American consular agents.
1T would not be dangerous for the
British consul TO go TO Juarez, nor
need Americans fear TO go across the
border at that point, according to re-.
port which the president had received
from Consul Edwards. The latest re-
port was that all missing Americans
and Enghshmen had been accounted
for except Gustav Bauch,
Discussion in congressional circles of
the Benton incident and the Mexican
situation generally was continued to-
day. Members of the senate are dis"
posed TO suspend Judgment and speeches
until all the facts are gathered, but IN
the house Representative Kahn, Repub~
lican, of California, made a speech to-
day, as did Representative Ainey, Re-
publican, Of Pennsylvania, yesterday,
arguing for a more drastiL policy by the
mittee on foreign affairs tomorrow will
consider behind closed doors the reso-
luton Of Mr.. Ainey concerning protec-
tions for Americans in Mexico
Mr.. Kahn's View.
Representative Kahn expressed the
hope that the administration IS Mexican
policy soon wonld give way TO new
one, which would bring about peace
aud tranquility in the southern repub-
lie, While opposing armed interven-
ton, he asserted that the present pol
icy, unless speedily ana radically
changed, must inevitably lead to armed
intervention.
The fact that it became necessary
to issue proclamation removing the
embargo on arms to be shipped into
Mexico, Representative Kahn said, 'is
practically an admission of the failure
of the policy of watchful waiting
Deadly drifting is a much more aceu-
rate description Of the administra-
ton policy. And since the embargo
had been removed, what has happened
Additional murder, additional lawless-
ness, for which we are probably re-
sponsible. -
Mr. Kahn expressed the belief that
if this government were to invite the
cooperation of Argentina, Brazil and
Chile in an effort to solve the Mexican
difficulty. peace and order soon would
be established.
Discussing the Monroe doctrine, Mr..
Kahn said the time had come when
this government should invite to con
ference on questions affecting the well
fare of the states on the American
hemisphere those Latin American re-
pub'ics whose governments are stable
and who have made giant strides 10
progress and commercial development.

BOYS AND GIRLS GET
EDUCATION AT HOME.
In Spite Of Dull Times State University
Has 100 More Students Than
1t Had Last Year.

University of Oregon, Eugene, Ore,
Sept. 25.-The number of students reg
istered to date at the state university
is approximately 700 in arts and scien'
ces alone. This is about 100 more than
were registered in arts, sciences and en-
gincCring together last year at this time.
| The increase has come in spite of the
loss of the engineering, and in spite of
the duh business period that has kept
scores of intending students at home.
Oregon has begun at last apparently
to educate a greater percentage of her
Young men and women at home; the IN
crease at the university is not due to
increase in the states population. but
to the diversion of students to the home
institution who formerly went south or
east. This diversion has been made pos
sible by the new building prospects, the
great strengthening of the faculty dur
ing the last two or three years, the EX-
tension division work, the success and
LOYALTY of state university graduates,
and the new courses.
The new department of commerce
sprang into instant popularity. Professor
II. b. Miller. former consul general from
the United States to China, and trade
expert of national reputation, encounter
ell fully 100 students during the opening
week. The practical idea of teaching
business principles had taken strong root
in the high schools. The work in com
meree will he added to greatly in sub
sequent years.

The men are called to appear I'm an
swer to charges in connection with the
army canteens in barracks. It is hinted
a great scandal will be revealed In the
inquiry. which will be begun on Jan. II.
No names or particulars Of the
charges were given out for publication

villains summoned are clerks employed
by contractors.
Systematic bribery Is alleged to have
been prevalent for some time. A secret
army inquiry showed such widespread
corruption that the war department
decided to turn its evidence over to the
regularly constituted authorities.
The war department fears the court
martial they proposed to call would not
have jurisdiction sufficiently wide to
deal with the scandal
