garded as an ahront to the American
government on the part of both Huerta
ana Garden.
Several snHH loans found their way
from British sources into the hands of
Hucrta in tire late fall of last year and
this winter. 1t was asserted that Garden
was Instrumental in obtaining them.
Lord Cowdray, British millionaire
conccssiohaire i'm Mexico. was said to
be Interested in these loans. and il was
inserted that he WAS induced by Car
den 10 make them. Another report
was that Garden, who has been regard
ed for years as being auti-Auerican in
his views. was the agent of Cowdray
in Mexico and that lac was promoted
to his diplomatic position through the
influence of Lord CoWdray with the
British foreign Office
Lord CoWdray has admitted that Car
den was Interested with him in some
properties in Mexico, but maintains that
the holdings We're held in fee simple
and that the Mexican government had
/ nothing to do with them.

GARDEN LEAVING MEXICO.

British Minister Is Not Regarded With
Favor by Washington Administration.
Sir Lionel Garden, British minister
to Mexico, who is to return to England
via the United States, will probably
not go back in any official capacity
to Mexico. He is regarded with suspi-
cion by the administration at Wash
ington as the result of reports that the
diplomat was too friendly with Huerta
and that he had taken certain steps
which We're construed in the City OF
Mexico as being particularly anti
American. one of these acts was to
stage reception Huerta gave to Sir
Christopher Cradock, the British ad-
miral i'll Mexican waters. This recep-
ton was given by Huerta at the Ma
tional palace, and by many it was re

 There is no reliable data regarding Russian losses, but 1t is believed they are not one-tenth of those sustained by the Austrans.

BISHOP CURR|ER
 URGES NEUTRALITY
Speaks Before Meeting of National Conference of
 Catholic Charities

Washington September 2o.-At the open ing here today of the third biennial meet ing of the National Conference of Catholic Charities, plea for American observance of neutrality in the European war was made by Bishop Charles W. currier of Cuba.
 Entering into the spirit of the request by the President of the United States" said Bishop Currier, "let us be neutral not with a don't care kind of neutrality, not with an indifferent neutrality but with the neutrality of love Unfortunate. misguided people are fighting but that is no reason We should draw the sword on one side or the other.n
 Bishop Currier expressed the opinion that the conflict could have been avoided by little patience, a little deliberation or an international conference.
 Sessions of the conference will con tinue until Wednesday,
