Mexico City-The national capital is
in the hands of the constitutionalists
In accordance with a prearranged plan,
General Obregon mrached in with his
army and took peaceful possession of
the city. The citizens greeted him
and his soldiers with cheers. The
evacuation by the federals was COM
pleted and constitutionalist troops are
now CHARTERED in the barracks which
the government soldiers recently occu-
pied.
Eight special trains will leave for
the front carrying reception commit
tee, which will formally welcome Cen
eral Carranza, first chief of the consti-
tutionalists, who will assume the pres
idency as soon as he enters the capital.
For the first time in months Ameri-
can flags flew beside the Mexican
colors. General Oregon caused to be
posted throughout the city a decree
threatening the immediate execution
of an officer or an enlisted man who
disturbed public order.
The sidewalks were crowded densely
from Chapultepec Castle to the nation
al palace, a distance of three miles.
General Oregon reviewed the troops
from the balcony of the national pal
ace, after which the soldiers were sent
to the barracks.

Chinese Republic Appeals
to P0lCers, But In Vain

Washington, d. C.-China has APP
pealed in vain to the powers of the
world to enter into an agreement to
respect her neutrality.
Apprehensive that she may become
involved in the war and that her terri
tory will be seized by Japan and other
powers. President Yuan Shi Kai and
his cabinet are seriously considering
the advisability of mobilizing and max
ing other preparations to defend the
neutrality of their country.
1t has been borne in on the Chinese
officials that they can expect no mill
tary support from the American gov
eminent. automatically we are will
ling to aid them. But so far as send
ing ships or troops to oppose nation
which may take action is something
the Wilson administration will not do.
AS a matter of fact, plans have been
adopted for withdrawing all our big
ships from Chinese waters and assem-
bling them at strategic point in the
Philippines for the protection of that
archipelago.
The refusal of the belligerent pow.
ers to enter into an agreement "at
this time" to respect Chinese neutral.
ity grows largely out of their preoccu-
patton in the existing theater of wal
and their ignorance of Developments
that may take place.
If Germany should be victorious, un
questionably she would take the Brit
ish dependencies of Hongkong and We
Hal Wei and would lay claim to thu
British sphere of influence in the re
giop watered by the Yangtse Kiang
In addition, she would seize Frencl
Tonquin China and Cambodia and seel
to control the French sphere of in
fuence extending over the three south
ern-most provinces of China. In add
tion, she would acquire the Portuguese
city of Macao. Of course, to do al
this, she would have to destroy tn
Japanese navy, a superhuman task, il
view of the fact that first she mus
vanuuish the British fleet.

United States Is Forced
to Levy NelD War Tax

Washington, D. C.-Administration
leaders have concluded that additional
revenue legislation eventually will be
needed to fill the gap in the govern
ment Golfers caused by the loss of rev.
enue on imports cut off by the Euro
pean war.
Majority Leader Underwood, of the
house, said that he would confer with
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
when the latter returns to Washington,
concerning plans and the amounts to
be raised.
The ways and means committee,
which has charge of all revenue legis-
lation, already has called on the treas
ury department for a detailed state
ment of the condition of the treasury
and the situation as to reduced i'm
port taxes. 1t was estimated that
legislation would be framed which
would contemplate "war tax" of ap-
proximately 500, 900, 900.
While no definite plans have beer
determined, it is expected that the tax
will take the shape of stamp impost
on malt and spurious liquors, although
an increased duty on leather and coffee
may be considered.
In order that revenue Legislation
might have the right of way whenever
it becomes necessary, the house wrote
into a special rule giving conservation
Legislation precedence clause exempt
ing revenue legislation.
The Republicans in the house have
notified Mr.. Underwood that while
they reserve the right to criticise any
revenue legislation offered, they will
not resort to obstructive tatics to pre-
vent its passage in an emergency.

GERMAN ARMY CROSSES

London = The Daily Chronicle mill
tary expert attaches the highest inn
portance to the British press bureaus
announcement that German troops are
reported to be entrenching along the
line of the River Aisne. He comments
as follows:
"This means that the Germans in
force have penetrated for a consider
able distance into French territory
from the Belgian frontier. This in
vasion is of far greater Importance
from military point of view than the
French incursion into Alsace.

in the rear of the French lines along

Unless we can find some means of
stimulating the campaign against IL
literacy it is merely matter of time
when the positions of the north and
the south will change places with re-
gard to that question. The manager
of the industrial league, with head
quarters in New York. announces that
the percentage OF adult illiterates in
that state has not decreased in the
last 20 years. The state has stood
still more persistently than any other
in the union in this respect. Connec-
ticut and New Jersey follow closely
upon its record. According to the
leagues bulletin, "the south is far
outstripping the north in its efforts
to deal with the problem of illiteracy."
While the percentage is still greater,
1t is being cut down from a quarter
to half every decade. The souths
population is more homogeneous and
more responsive at least to primary
educational influences.-Boston Tran

ULT|MATUM IS SENT
War to Follow if Germans Persist
in Keeping kiau Chau.
Toxic Government Sends Notice By
Sir Different Channels, In
GLIDING United States

Tokio-Japan sent an ultimatum to
Germany Saturday night at 8 o'clock,
demanding the withdrawal of German
warships from the Orient and the evac-
uation of Kiau Chau and giving Ger
many until Sunday, August %, to com
ply with the demand. Otherwise, the
ultimatum states, Japan will take ac-
ton.
The general expectation here is that
the ultimatum will be followed by war.
Takaaki Kato, the Japanese foreign
minister, simultaneously with the dis
patch of the ultimatum, conferred with
Georgh W. Guthrie, the American am
bassador, and made to him a broad
statement calculated to assure the
United States that American interests
in the Far East would be safeguarded
and the integrity of China upheld.
Owing to doubts whether commune
cations with Berlin were assured, jap
an, in order to insure the arrival of
the ultimatum, forwarded it to Berlin
by six channels, including Washington,
London and Stockholm. The govern
ment also notified Count Won Rex, Ger
man ambassador to Japan, and like
wise retarded the time limit for re-
ply until August %.
The ultimatum follows:
1--WE consider it highly important
and necessary in the present situation
to take measures to remove the causes
of all disturbances of the peace in the
Far East and to safeguard the general
interests as contemplated by the
agreement of alliance between Japan
and Great Britain.
"In order to secure firm and en-
during peace in Eastern Asia, the es-
tablishment of which is the aim of the
said agreement, the Imperial japanese
government sincerely believes it to be
its duty to give the advice to the I'm
perial German government to carry out
the following two propositions:
First - To withdraw Immediately
from Japanese and Chinese waters
German men-of-w and armed vessels
of all kinds and to disarm at once
those which cannot be withdrawn.
'Second-To deliver on a date moi
later than September Is to the Japan
csc authorities without condition Of
compensation the entire leased terri
tory of Kiau Chau with a view to thu
eventual restoration of the same tt
China
''The Imperial Japanese government
announces at the same time that in tn
event of its not receiving by noon Of
August %, 1914, an answer from tn
Imperial German government, signify
ing its unconditional acceptance of tn
above advice offered by the Imperia
Japanese government, Japan will b.
compelled to take such action as sh
may deem necessary to meet the situa
tion."
