GRANTS EXTENSION
ON OIL CONTRACT

Board of public works members were
congratulated today by many people
over the excellent method of street
oiling being done by the municipal
contractor. He has been placing his
oil in such systematic and careful
manner that no large puddles stand
in the streets. nor does the oil drain
off into the cutters. He has also
been very particular in cleaning tho
streets thoroughly before oiling. He
has been handicapped in completing
his work by the rains, but in two days
has oiled eighteen of the sixty-nine
blocks he has contracted for. He will
finish his contract by Saturday, and
the board will grant him an extension
OF contract until that time.
Street oiling by public contract, how
ever, will never be attempted again
by the present administration. It in
wolves entirely too much red tape. and
In the future the work will be done
by private contract, unless the next
legislature amends the street improve
ment law so the city can do it's own
oiling work.

HODGIN CANNOT
CONDEMN TENEMENTS

IT have no authority to condemn
tenement houses unless they are act
ually dangerous for habitation, but I'M
der the provisions of the state hous-
ing law the board of health in every
city can compel the vacation of tena-
ment houses, which means houses
where two or more families live, for
varied reasons" said Building 1nspec-
tor Hodgin today.
Hodgin made this statement in COM
menting on the motion passed by the
mayors advisory board asking for an
investigation by the city officials to
determine whether the state housing
law could not be employed as a We
hicle to compel the abandonment of a
number of miserable novels which are
absolutely unfit for human habitation.
Mr.. Hodgin cited Section 70 of the
housing law, which reads in part: eff
4 tenement house or any part of it is
infected with contagious disease, or
that is unfit for human habitation, or
dangerous to life or health by reason
Of want of repairs or defects in drain
age, plumbing or ventilation or
by reason Of nuisance likely to cause
sickness, the board of public health
may issue an order requiring all per-
sons therein to vacate such house with

"You see, it was this way" he ex-
planned. Saturday afternoon l went
home fried to a crisp. Well, l shed
several superfluous layers of covering
required by conventionality and tried
to keep comfortable.
'"This morning, the owner of the
apartment across the alley stopped me
on the street and informed me I
would have to be more careful as Mr..
Blank, one of his tenants had COM
planned that his wife was very much
shocked when she happened to get a
view of men behind the curtains"
Before finishing his story he blew
great clouds of smoke at the ceiling of
the clubroom.
THAT peeved me, so I told the own
er to tell Mr.. Blank l failed to see
how my modest little sideshow in my
room could interfere with Mrs. Blanks

and street flusher wagon purchased.
Mr.. Bavis said that he intended to
operate the street department on the
same economical basis the remainder
of the year, although it is known that
the two other board members are op-
posed to the operation Of the street
department for less than its appropria-
ton. They want every cent available
for use in street repair work. Mr.. Ba-
Wis contends that streets can be plac-
ed in a satisfactory condition, main
tanned and kept clean for much less
than the appropriation.
Our alleys are also being kept in
first class shape now and the board
has not received a complaint from this
source for over three weeks" Mr. Ba-
WIS asserted. He also said physicians
had informed him that they believed
the very noticeable decrease in the
number of flies this year was to a
great extent due to the strict enforce
ment of the garbage ordinance.

DIPLOMATS En1bQrQSS
United States abroad

WASHINGTON, July 15.-The spec
tacular adventures of George Fred
Williams in Albania have thrown the
Pickwickian side of American diplo-
macy once more into the limelight.
Mr.. Williams has contributed to the
gayety of nations at the expense of
the dignity of our diplomatic service,
"a type of humor that the United
States does not appraise highly. He
has had many predecessors in the
same style of gayety.
No chronicler of events need bark
no further back than a few years to
remember numerous blunders to the
debit account of our diplomacy Theo-
dore Roosevelt had the celebrated Bel
lamy Storer case to deal with, a case
in which many of the wounds incurred
are yet unhealed, and in which I'M
qunchable animosities were engen-
dered.
Taft Is Lucky.
President Taft escaped any serious
trouble with the diplomatic service, al
though observers of the passing show
have not yet forgotten how Charles R.
Crane, of Chicago, duly appointed and
confirmed as ambassador to Russia,
was recalled almost at the very hour
he was sailing for the Far East from
San Nancisco, because of some indis-
Greet rNerences to Russo-Japanese re-
lations.
The cultured Viennese had some fun
with Richard c. kerens; whom Taft
appointed his Austrian ambassador,
because of the quaintness of some of
his acts, and John A. G. Leishman, Of
Pittsburg. who was appointed ambas-
sador to Germany. when David Jayne
Hill fell into the bad graces of Presi-
dent Taft, caused the state depart
ment many anxious hours.
President Wilson and Secretary Of
State Bryan have had their share of
trouble also, coming to Z head with
the George Fred Williams episode.
There is no evidence to show that the
gallant diplomat from Dedham, Mass.
committed his famous break"

BY kNjckEReOckER:

NEW YORK, July 15-These Unit
ed States often complain of being
ruled by Wall street. But there is
some times just as much reason for
complaint of the control of the whole
nation by the Manhattan lower East
Side. The Bowery district time out of
memory has had the say at Tammany
Hall, the Hall usually dominates the
state and at times, the city of New
York. The New York delegation is
the single greatest force at the Demo
cratic national conventions and even
in times of hostile administration
like the present one, Tammany Hall
yields a subtle power in Washington.
So the Bowery is and should be OF
interest to every American citizen.
The lower East Side with it's 100000
population in square mile is more
than a curiosity to tourists from the
West. Los Angeles and Portland may
feel the weight of it's hand any day

Altogether it is most alarming sit

a sequel.
Foley is leader of the Bowery and

their clan.
1t was in 1901 that the Sheriff with
the help of Police Chief William S.
Devery and Big Tim Sullivan, knocked
down Paddy Diver and dragged him
out of the leadership chair of the Sec
ond district
For thirteen years the sheriff has
reigned and his power has waxed. But
in the last twelve months there have
been serious clouds on the big lead
er's horizon. He was surprised in the
spring of 1913 to find himself at
tackled at both ends of his bailiwick.
In the north Michael Rofrano, a clev-
err Italian-American set up his stand

Brooklyn Bridge, the brothers Dris-
coll, Glen and Gene, proclaimed their
independence.

good deal for a taciturn Tammany
leader to say.

next to the best job on the force of

had sudden heavy fall.
But Glen out of office turned his
activities toward politics. The result
enraged Foley, though his leadership
was not seriously endangered. Then
the rebels tried to send some Foley
men to prison on allegation of election
frauds

Frawley is no mean foe himself. He
has a solid upper east side district in
which he was born forty-four years
ago, behind him. He has been senate
leader and chairman of the finance
committee since the death of Senator
Thomas F. Grady, and he can claim
Charley Murphy's gratitude as re-

which prepared the evidence against
Governor William Sulzer. He is said

overthrow Frawley he has the legisla-

satisfy the Sheriff he braves the anci-

and that's worse. 1t would surprise no
one if Foley grabbed Charley by the
coat collar and booted him right into
the Fourteenth street gutter.

Frawley had Rofrano appointed to the

a body blow.

Replying to criticisms Of the condi-
ton of streets in this city made by
members of the mayors advisory
board President Bavis of the board Of
public works today expressed his be-
lief that Richmond's macadam and
gravel streets measured up well in
comparison with streets of this kind in
every other city in the state.
Il think many critics Of our streets
also fail to take into consideration the
fact that this administration has been
in office only six months and has only
had the opportunity OF doing street
work for the last three months" said
Mr.. Bavis. And in view of the short
time we have had to improve our
streets think our progress along that
line has been more than satisfactory
ut is not only our plan to repair
or remake as many of the dirt streets
as we possibly can, but we are, l be-
lieve, successfully attempting to keep
our paved streets in better condition
than hitherto"
He then called attention to the fact
that for the first six months of the
year the street department had been
operated for s3,499 less than it's ap-

Refugees Suffer Outrages
From Soldiers of Pres. HuertQ

WASHINGTON, July Histories OF
what Americans in interior towns OF
Mexico suffered just after Vera Cruz
was seized are trickling into Wash
ington slowly, and if all the outrages
which were perpetuated on United
States citizens in those stormy days
had been known at the time to the
folks here at home, our forces would
never have paused on the seacoast.
Ira Adler, whose home is in New
York City, has just made public de-
scription of the escape from Guadala-
lara. Existence of Americans in that
town after the capture of Vara Cruz
was impossible. After many hard
ships Mr.. Adler and his companions
reached Manzanillo and thence tra~el-
ed to San Francisco aboard British
steamship.
He is indignant at the neglect of
the American government which, he
declares, did nothing to save the refu-
gees from Guadalajara, although Com
mander Thomas p. MacGruder allowed
the freedom of the port of Manzanillo
to Mexican vessels on condition that
the sixteen prisoners from Guadalajara
be allowed to go free. MacGruder
commands the cruiser Raleigh.
Consul serves Notice.
"The first notice to get out came
from w. A. Davis, the American con-
sui, without warning" said Mr.. Adler.
"On April 81 the second order to leave
came and all Americans were asked
to gather in council at the American
club. There 40 decided to go at once
and did. The next day at another meet
ing more Americans were able to
make arrangements to leave and
party of 100 was taken to Manzanillo
on a special train. This day the Next
cans became active and threatening.
They tore down signs on the American
consulate and other buildings of Ameri-
can citizens.
The following day was worse. Cries
of kill the gringoes,' and 'hurrah for
Huerta and Mexico were heard. Led
by a band, a mob appeared in front of
the German club in the evening, sing
ing Mexican and German airs.
The populace was Infatuated by
stories originating, God knows where,
that many Mexican women and chill
dren had been killed in the streets of
the large cities of the United States.
"A bowling mob followed our party
of twelve men, two women and chill
dren, as we went to the train. We
left there in the morning and arrived
in Colima. We took coaches to the
center of the town and tried to find
hotel. One after another of the hotel
proprietors refused to receive u.s. They
declared that the mobs would burn
