100 FALL INTO OCEAN
AS A PIER COLLAPSES

New York, July 27.-While 500 men,
women and children were standing up
on a lightly built pier extending into
the ocean at Blue Point, L. l., yester-
day morning, crowding together so as
to get into moving picture that was
being taken of bathers and yachtsmen
in the water, a section of the pier cl-
lapsed.
More than 100 persons-mainly women
in summer finery-were thrown into
the surf The water where they fell
was only three or four feet deep, so no
one was injured. though there was a
lot of excitement and considerable tear
shedding over ruined frocks.
Many well-known New York women
were among those who took the in
voluntary dip. Some of them were
Mrs. Henry Ziegler and her daughters,
Misses Natalie and Helena Ziegler;
the Misses Mildred and Irene Schrag,
the Misses Irene, May and Edna Cush-
man, Miss Millicent Horton, Miss
Louise Paterson and Miss Florence
Scarboro.
An unidentified fat man was the on
ly one who really suffered. When he
fell into the water he couldn't rise and
had to be helped to his feet by several
bathers

Gov. VILLAREAL ISSUES DECREE
!. LIMITING SCOPE OF the ROMAN
| CATHOLIC CHURCH, NUEvO Leon
Declares Church Pernicious Factor in Disruption
And Discord, Forgetting Spiritual Mission
Confession Is Prohibited-Other Drastic Fea-
s lures of Decree

"s-Any infraction of these laws will
be punisha BILE by fine of 500 to $500
and arrest and Imprisonment from two
ia four months, or both fine and i'm
prisonment."
Explaining the grounds for this ac-
ton, Vllareals decree reads:
IN the interest of public health, NOR
atty and Justice. the state of Nuevo
Leon will limit the scope of the Cath
Ole church. which during it's life, has
entirely forgotten its spiritual mission,
its sole right to be recognized by mod
ern society. The church has consecrat-
ed itself principally to conquests in
politics. To secure the object Ii always
has been allied with the reactionary
government and the despots and even
with foreign invaders. 1t has showed
itself an implacable enemy to the Lib
eral movement and progress from the
first revolution of Aytula until the
present. and has Illuminated its ridic-
ulous communications over the most
grand and glorious benefactors of the
country. Hidalgo, Juarez and Laredo
De Dejeda.
THE Pictorial and Clerical rulings of
Porifiro Diaz and Huerta against which
the Mexican people have been struggling
heroically for many years have had the
sympathy and assistance of the Mexican
church, the church has had its benedic-
lions for the crimes and corruptions of
Huerta and has unsuccessfully worked to
incite the public against the Constitution
al cause. Some of the ceremonials of the
church were criticized, Villareal alleging
that in Mexico they have tended toward
weakening of moral character. He de-
clared it the course of wisdom to close
the clerical schools for the present on
the ground that lit is a supreme national
necessity to stamp out at the root the
arrogant abuses of the Catholic church
and remove the grave danger which the
institution represents, more political than
religious for the tranquility and future
progress of the country
Catholic churches recently have been
closed in Saltillo, San Luis Potosi and
Neurvo Laredo.

WAR ON M'REYNOLDS
If NAMED FOR JUSTICE

Washington, July 27.-That there
would be bitter fight in the Senate
against the confirmation of Attorney
General McReynolds as Justice of the
supreme court, should he be named by
the President to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Justice Lurton, was
the comment in Senatorial circles Sat
1rday. 1t was pointed out that the
attitude assumed by Mr.. McReynolds
in the New Haven case, and particu-
larly his attempt to have the President
muzzle Solicitor Folk Of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, had aroused
the Indignation and opposition Of
large number of the body.
incidentally. Mr.. McReynolds trod
upon one of the Senate's private corns
when he attempted to hamper, in the
slightest degree an investigation
which the Senate had itself ordered.
Irritation was expressed by members
who had voted against the passage of
the investigation resolution.
1t is virtually certain that Senator
Norris of Nebraska, author of the in
yestigation resolution, will take hand
in fighting the confirmation of Nc
Reynolds should his name be sent in
by the President. 1t is just as GER
tain that the entire progressive ele-
ment would back up Norris in this
fight.

GOVERNMENT BASE
BALL is HIS DREAM

Columbia, Mo-. July 27.-Prof. ]. E.
Wrench of the University of Missouri. a
history teacher. believes that inside of
% years the United States government
will take over all the baseball leagues
in the country and run them as a gov
eminent enterprise, Congress making ap-
preparations for the purchase of players
He believes that the government then
will furnish baseball games to the public
at cost and that the players will be on a
civil service basis.
Prof. Wrench got the idea from the
ancient chariot race In Rome when the
Emperor took sides.
Prof. Wrench thinks that many of the
complaints against present day sport are
due to the commercial features. He
thinks baseball would be even more pop
ular were commercialism eliminated. He
is an ardent baseball fan.

RAILROADS MOVING HUGE
CROP IN RECORD FASHION

st. Louis, July 27.-The railroads of
the wheat belt this year are moving
the huge crop In far better fashion
than in many previous seasons, ac-
cording to statements by officials and
by shippers. Through placing on side
tracks all the "empties'' available
cars were well distributed before the
threshing began.
Trains are run as extras, outside
of the regular freight schedules, and
solid wheat trains are being received
at the st. Louis, Kansas City, Chi
cage and Galveston terminals. Thus
far there has been an unusually heavy
movement of export wheat destined to
Boston. New York. Philadelphia and
Baltimore. The fine quality of the
grain has been a factor in the ex-
port situation.
The Missouri Pacific and Iron Noun
tain system recently has been break
ing all its previous records in the
loading of wheat. Last Monday 655
cars were loaded, the largest quantity
of wheat here a day in the history of
the system, as compared with S62 cars
on the same day last year.
The heavy movement started July
10, when 81 cars were loaded. On the
next the number jumped to ASS, and
on Monday. July 13, il was 491. On sue
eeeding days the number of cars load
ed increased as follows: July H. Sol
cars; July Is, SIG cars; July II, $40
ears, and July Is, $50 cars.
The high mark was 200 cars in ex-
cess of the greatest days wheat load
ing record for the preceding year. In
the present year eight days have ex-

S34. 100000 IN CASH
TO MOVE BIG CROPS

Washington, July 27.--Announce-
ment was made by Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo Saturday that he
will shortly deposit in certain cities
throughout the country s34,000,000 for
crop moving and other legitimate
business purposes. He said he had re-
ceived replies from some 5000 national
banks in answer to his recent circular,
in which he asked if any unusual de-
mand for money was expected this fall.
These replies have been carefully an
alyzed and fully confirm the optimis-
tie bulletins of the department of agri-
culture as to the prospects for unus-
ually large crops.
The answers also indicate a decided
promise of greatly improved business
conditions and enlarged business &C
tivities throughout the country. Gov
eminent funds, the Secretary was told,
will not be needed in the New Eng
land and Eastern States and in GER
tain States in the West and Northwest
and in California.
Interest at the rate of 2 per cent. will
be charged and the government will ae-
cept as security United States bonds at
par, state. municipal, railroad and other
bonds acceptable to the secretary of the
truasury at 70 per cent. of their market
value The secretary will not require.
as he did last year. that 10 per cent. of
the deposits shall be secured by govern
ment bonds.
!, Mr.. McAdoo says should It become nee
essary to deposit in the banks a greater
sum than s34, 100000 to meet the needs of
the country, he will not hesitate to do
so. If it appears to his satisfaction at
any time that other cities than those des-
ignated can advantageously employ gov
eminent funds he will be glad to give
their annlications consideration.
