Advice to British Subjects:
to Leave Mexican Capital
May Forecast Rebel Attack

Although agents in Washington OF
Gen. Carranza set the date OF his prob.
able victorious entry OF the capital at
the head of his army as t-least II
month hence, news from Mexico City
that Sir Lionel Garden has advised the
British subjects to leave the city Is be-
lieved to foreshadow an early attack
by the constitutionalist army.
Explanat tion is lacking of why Gen.
Villa should double back to TorreDn, as
has been reported. 1t is intimated that
repeated stories of new breaks between
Villa and CarranIa may be permitted
by constitutionalist censors with "a
view to divertin;s attention from the
strategy OF the campaign now nearing
q climax.
Washington government officials as
well as .constitutionalist agents here .eS-
pressed considerable interest in the re-
port from Mexico City that Sir Lionel
Garden. the British minister. had ad-
vised British subjects to leave Mexico.
Both, however, explained this action as a
measure of safety resultant from the
continued approach OF the revolutionary
armies upon Mexico City and the general
uneasiness over the fact that the medi-
alton conference at Niagara Falls has
failed to bring about composition of Mex
lean affairs.
Say Carranza Will Send Delegates.
Some of the constitutionalist represent
atives in Washington today reiterated be-
lief that Carranza would decide to send
delegates to meet the Huerta mission.
Secretary Bryan would not discuss the
probable length OF time the mediatora
would await definition Of Carranxa's
stand. 1t appeared. however. that they
would take no summary action as long
as there remained hope that the consti-
tutionaiists would send delegates to dis
cuss plans for a provisional government.
Satisfaction was expressed in admin
istration circles today over reports that
representatives of Carranxa We're to meet
the lighting Gen. villa this week In an
effort to repair whatever breach has oc-
CURED between the two Leaders.
That news relieved stress caused BY
reports from some sources that the

is Mr.. PRAEGER'S CLAIM
Points to Improvements Made Pos
sible Through Saving of
$A,736 Year.

Postmaster Praeger this morning said
that his force would be lessened at the
close of today's business by four resig-
nations, and four dismissals. with a fur
ther saving by seven reductions In salary
These will bring the total cost of
operation of the office to S44.736 less
year. or s122.56 q day.
But, with tho story Of lost positions
and reduction in the cost of the service
Postmaster Praeger couples a story Of a
big Improvement in the delivery service
through an increase in the number OF
letter carriers and the readjustment of
the territory In which deliveries are
made in Brookland. Takoma Park, Chevy
Chase. Langdon. Georgetown. Tenley-
town, Mount Pleasant and the northwest
portion of the city; the extension of the
business deliveries as far as street
northwest; the doubling Of Sunday col
lections of the mails and the house col
lection of parcel post packages weigh
ing ten pounds or more.
Details of Curtailment.
By the removal or resignation of
twenty-three superannuated and inca
pacitated employees. Mr.. Praeger states a
saving of $23,9O0 has been effected; by

Plans Further Big Saving.
Furthermore, Mr.. Praeger said he had
submitted to the second assistant post
master general proposition which will
effect still greater saving, and which
can be made effective when. the city. post
office is moved into the new building,
probably the latter part Of August, he
said.
Under the present contract for the coll
lection of the malls, trips are provided
for aggregating z, 494 miles at cost Of
$27, ,1SJ. Under tine postmaster's propo-
sition, with five automobiles, he expects
to give service aggregating 92616 miles
at a cost of $10,206. Under this propo-
sition not only will there be a wider COL
lection service provided. but the auto
mobiles, which will be government
owned, will be able to take outlying car
riers promptly to the scenes of their
routes. thus giving an earlier delivery.

May Close Bathing Beach.

Auditor Tweedale stated today that
under the terms Of the continuing ap-
ptoprfation resolution it would be nee
essary to close at least one of the
public comfort stations. The one-twen-
ty-fourth OF the amount of the annual
appropriation, he stated. would not be
sufficient to keep all of the stations
open as usual though he stated he be-
lieved il would not be necessary to
close more than one of them. Which
station would be closed because of lack
OF funds, he said. was a matter to be
determined later.
Mr.. Tweedale stated that. as he un-
derstood the wording of the resolution,
1t will not be necessary to exercise
more than the ordinary prudence in

a minute sum. he said, would hardly
suffice to keep the beach In operation

The wording of the resolution shows,
however, that only a very small amount

hl. FAIR
Father of Mrs. Thompson and
Well Known Here is Dead
at Butler, Pa.


The Butler, G-a., Clttzen OF recent
date gives the following account OF
the death OF George w. Fair, father
of Mrs. e. J. Thompson, of this city,
and well known here:
George w. Fair, one of the Oldest
and most highly respected residents
of the city, died at his home, No. 5OI
West Wayne street, at 11:15 O'Clock
Thursday morning, after an illness OF
about month, due to the inhrmtties
of age. Up until about month ago,
Mr. Fair was about the city great
deal, being until that time remark
ably active man, considering his age.
Mr.. Fair was born in JEFFERSON
township March /, 1880, and was,
therefore, in his Saith year. Early in
life he came to Butler, where he en-
gagged in the brickmaking business,
his plant being located in what is
now the Fourth ward. in the neigh
borhod of North Mexican and East
Clay streets. During the oil excite
ment at Afillerstown and Greece City,
in the early 70's, when there was but
one railroad, the West Penn. entering
Butler, he erected a hotel at the cor
ner of Monroe and East Jefferson
streets on the present site of the
New Monroe hotel, naming 1t tatrs
Exchange, which was considered one
of the best hostelfies in Butler at
that time. The hotel was the stop
ping place of most Of the persons
coming here to visit the oil fields and
was regarded as the headquarters for
oil men in this section. When the Oil
excitement began to wane, Mr.. Fair
disposed of the hotel and removed to
