EDISON DEPRECATES WAR
Wouldn't Sacrifice an American
for All MeXico's Gold.

tFrom The Tribune Correspondent
West Orange. y. j.. April 2o.-"It's too
bad these Mexicans don't know how to
conduct themselves and have respect for
superior nation and its honor" said
Thomas A Edison In his laboratory here
this afternoon.
"Of course" he went on. Il think It's
bad business for a nation to march
around with a chip on its shoulder. daring
the other fellow TO knock IL on | would
be inclined 10 let my pride suffer little
before l would plunge our country Otto
war with Mexico. Why. wouldn't sacri-
fee, the life of one brave American lad
for all the gold there Is In Mexico"
Mr.. Edison also said that he believed
the United States should repeal the tolls
clause in the Panama Canal controversy.
THE earlier administration probably
made mistake" he added. and our
word should be considered binding just
as good as government bond. II mis-
take was made in that treaty let US take
our medicine like men"

MEXICANS FAIL TO
STIR BROADWAY
March Under Flag in l01 Ranch
Parade, but Cause No Signs
of Hostility.

New York, casting aside It's sophIstica-
ton last night, harked back to village
days, when Pete Stuyvesant was young
ing. 1t lined itself up on the sidewalks,
in spite OF the weather. and gazed open
mouthed at the Mexicans, Indians. Cos
sacks. cowboys. cowgirls, oxen. buffaloes.
stage coaches, calliope and red fire that
made UP the lol Ranch Wild West parade.
Early In the procession came chief Iron
tail, king OF the Sioux. He Is seventy
four years old. and elected to ride in a
carriage instead OF on horse. He Ger
tainly has moro feathers in his cap than
any other living mortal: but, as chief Of
all the Sioux, he is entitled to them. III
should he remarked I'm passing that ;he
chiefs real name is John W. Benson, and
frontal is merely SiouXdonymJ
The big disappointment OF the parade
was the reccption-or lack Of it-accorded
the MeXlcans. According To the advance
notices the multitude should have arisen
in their wrath and pummeled those Mex
leans. Instead, it was demonstrated that
the spectators did not know Mexicans
from Armenians or the Mexican dag
from the Chinese. Vern Tantlinger,
head Of the cowboys. reported solitary
exception. At 75d St and Central Park
West an urch!n cried where's Mexico
now?'
Some excitement was furnished before
tho procession got under way at the
Garden, when a Mexican steer named
Clarence broke away from his moorings
aud mingled carelessly with the crowd
at 18th ST. Jose Gonzales was on the
steers back at the time, but Clarence
didn't let that interfere.
Jose pronounced JOSEF stuck close to
Clarence during the whole trip. but the
crowd suddenly remembered engagements
and departed. There were no china shops
in the neigh horhood for Clarence TO enter.
so after dispensing tho assemblage and
causing q bruise here and there he was
lassoed and "steered" back into the Gar
den
Joe" and Vac" Miller and Ed" Ar
ljncton. who merely own the show, were
part Of the procession. but they palcd
into inssnifcance beside men OF such
picturesque monickcra az Thomas Loafer,
Eagle Shirt. Red Shirt and Yellow Shirt.
Shirts have ever been popular with the
Indlans-at least for naming purposes.
Joe Drum, who Is optimistic and apt to
grow careless with his ciphers. swore
that Il was the first Broadway parade IN
twenty years and that 5ooo 900 persons were
on rand TO witness II.

nual Congress.
MRS. WILLIAM G. STORY
PRESIDES AT SESSION
Mexican War Debate In Congress
Mars Programme and Celeb
rifles Are Missed.
From The Tribune Bureau ]


Washington. April @-Mra William
Cumming Story opened the twenty-third
annual congress OF the Daughters Of tho
American Revolution in Continental Hall
to-day. A big reception was given By
Mrs. Story tonight.
The elaborate programme prepared for
this afternoon. when the Vice President.
the Secretary Of the Navy and Senator
Works were 10 speak. WAS necessarily
changed. Disappointment turned to de-
light when John Barrett, director general
OF the Pan-American Union, came direct
from the Capitol. where he had heard tho
President deliver his Mexican message
and described the event Bishop Harding
pronounced the invocation and delivered
short address. Ballard Thurston, presi-
dent OF the Sons OF the American Revo-
luton. expressed his appreciation OF the
work OF the d. A. r. In preserving his
torc spots. papers. flags. etc. and recon-
mended that the government be urged TO
construct a suitable building for war
records. He also told the Daughters that
there was no history Of the American
flag in the War Department prior TO 1884.
The Rev. Randolph X. McKim spoke
in place OF tho Vioe-President. and threw
the whole congress into a merry spirit
when he told the old clerical story OF the
minister who was called upon TO MI the
place of the renowned DR.. Guthrie, and
who said he could not hope 10 Ill tho
nj hut hot ha
around in It."
Every time President Wilson and his
attitude on the Mexican situation was
mentioned there was prolonged applause,
and then again there was applause when
It was suggested TO extend the glad
hand" to Queen Eleanor Of Bulgaria
when she makes her visit TO the United
States
This was the first congress over which
Mrs. Story has presided since becoming
president general. and quite in contrast
with years past. when there was con-
slant rat-a-tat OF the gavel on the marble
block. that great weapon OF authority was
scarcely used to-day. Mrs. Story wore a
costume OF two tones OF purple orchid
charmeuse. simply made In draped effect.
but orchid from the plumes on her hat 10
the shoes upon her feet and there were
many beautiful orchids on the table.
Again. she was in orchid charmeuse this.
afternoon. only a little more elaborate.
TONG I. when with tho national officers
she received all OF the delegates
and members OF the society in Washing
ton at Continental Hall. she was again
in the palest shade OF lavender from head
to foot.
