D|SCRED|T RECALL
OF O'SHAUGHNESSY
Charge Has Had Department
Endorsement, Capital Of
ficials Point Out.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Estate de-
partment officials do not credit re-
ports that Charge O'Shaughnessy is
to be recalled from Mexico City. Al
though Secretary Bryan is absent and
other officials here have not learned
the conclusions reached at the con-
ference between President Wilson and
John Lind at Pass Christian, Miss,
it was pointed out today that Mr..
O'Shaughnessy has had the indorse-
ment of the department throughout
the trying period during which he has
been head of the American embassy
in the Mexican capital.
1t is believed in well-informed cir
Giles here that the embassy in Mexico
City will not be closed. Despite
the handicap under which Charge
O'Shaughnessy has been working, he
has accomplished much in behalf of
American and other foreign interests
in Mexico. One opinion expressed to-
day was that the United States might
not be in a position to continue its
leadership among the foreign element
so well if it should close the en-
bassy.
Captain Bradshaw, on the York
town, reported today that unrest con-
tinued in Ensenada. Rear-Admiral
Cowles, on the cruiser Pittsburgh, re-
ported heavy firing at Mazatlan, but
gave no indication of the outcome of
the fighting. The cruiser Raleigh
has left Mazatlan for Topolobampo.

Says Tax on Coal Mining Is
Responsible for Price Hoist

WASHINGTON, Jan. g. Conn
plants to Attorney General Nc
Reynolds from several. Eastern cities
that the price of hard coal is soar
ing, allege that the Pennsylvania tax
on every ton of anthracite mined
within its borders is responsible. The
department of justice has been asked
to assail the Pennsylvania law on the
ground that it is unconstitutional.
In answer to letters suggesting such
a course the attorney general has re-
piled that it is highly probable that
sooner or later some individual will
bring suit to test the law, and that.
If the department finds it advisable
1t may intervene.
The Pennsylvania tax Is ~ per
cent of the cost of mining each ton.
and it is estimated that the State Will
raise nearly $5,000,000 annually from
that source. According to the letters
to the Encouragement. the Pennsyl-
vania mining companies have charged
the full tax up to the retailers and
they in turn have passed 1t on to the
consumer.
