against the strict embargo. Germany
pointed out that under The Hague con-
vention, a neutral nation is not obliged
to ems messages. The American
government took the position, how
ever that military or naval informa-
ton should not be transmitted from
the shores of the United States d.
rectiy to ships at sea as this was
tantamount to using American terri
tory as a base for hostile operations.

 SIDELIGH1S
Effort By Governor Hays to Get
 Kirby to Withdraw.

Little Rock, June 16.-There were so many sidelights to the State Dem ocratic Convention, held recently in Pine Bluff, that they will remain good for the telling for many months to come, and still many of the politi- cal wires which were pulled will re- main in obseurity.
 On the night before the assembling of the State Central Committee which was to pass upon some of the prelim mary skirmishes, Gov. c. w. Hays was seen on the balcony of the Ho- tel Pines, and near him, in a shadow d nook, sat Judge William F. Kirby. Later Judge Kirby withdrew and Smead Powell of Camden, and Frank Pace Of Little Rock, strong Kirby followers, took his place. Still later Julius c. Clary joined the little party. Gov Hays was seen and rec ognized, and soon the report was in circulation that he had left his room at the Jefferson Hotel, and was ad- vising Judge Kirby as to how he should proceed with his contest. It was also reported that he was using his influence to change certain Clarke delegations.
 After the whole thing is over, the truth about this conference comes out. Gov. Hays was advising Judge krby-but he was advising him to abandon his contest. For two weeks he had daily offered the same advice. He was joined in the advice by oth- CTS ill the final conference, and fail ling to convince Judge Kirby of the probable outcome, Gov. Hays with drew and was not again ill consulta- ton with Judge Kirby at Pine Bluff.
 The following night all those ia tAe conference, with the exception Hol y..Hays, participated in a big Kirby rally, and carried on as if de feat was an impossibIEty, instead of q certainty

 Leaving the question of an armis- tice both Mr Caberera and MT. Zu- baran explained that they hoped there might be some peaceful way of solving the Mexican problem; that they, too, wished to avoid further bloodshed but councils and mediation conferences were valueless unless they took into consideration terms the constitutionaliots demand
 Mr Caberera said the constitu- tionalist army never would lay down it's arms, the various chiefs never would agree to any change of pres ent plans unless someone so promi- nent in the constitutionalist ranks as to guarantee their forces absolute control were elevated to the presi- dency. It was useless, Mir. Caberera explained, to talk of a neutral.

$S9,O0O PAID
 OUT ON FREIGHT
854 Car Loads From Sprlnsdale In
 1913.

From A. NJ. Leitzell, local agent for the Frisco, it is learned that for the year ending December 31, last there were shipped from Springdaie S54 car loads of freight. Of this num- Der 536 cars were fruit or fruit pro- ducts, and 172 cars of live stock. We understand that the local vinegar plants now have on hand i'll the neigh borhood of 5.000 gallons of juice, equivalent to 1900 or 1o00 barrels, or 9 or 30 car loads. These figures are correct and are not based on any es' timate or guess work. It certainly makes creditable showing of the amount of stuff shipped from Spring dale, and furnishes a reason for the prosperous condition Of the commun- ity The railroad company was paid more than $S9,000 last year for freight shipped from this station.
 Following is q detailed report of the car lot shipments from Spring dale for the year 1913.

The attendance of railroad men at the conference with fruit growers of this section in Springdale Monday was not 50 well attended as Was eX- pected, the Frisco and N K < T. being the only roads represented at the meeting K. II. Phinney. of Fort Smith, assistant superintendent, was present for tae Frisco, while the M. K. & T. was represented by II. B. Sperry of Dallas, Texas. ass stant general freight agent Ashley P Boles, horticultural agent of the Frisco, was also present. The fail. ure of other roads to have representa- tives here is thought to have been due to a misunderstanding of the date of the meeting.
 X public meeting Was he'd at the mayors office, and the matter was discussed in an inf.rmal way The M. K X T. representative said his road was very much opposed 10 the custom of permitting apple shippers t9 peddle apples from the cars, and they would not permit 1t in tie fu. ture unless required by order of the Interstate Commere Commission 10 do so. He gave as his principal req son that 1t attracted men, women and children to the cars, endangering their lives from passing trains and causing accidents for which the rail- road was held responsible and re- quired to pay damages which more than offset the profits they received for hauling the apples A meeting Of the Interstate Commerce Commits sion was to have been held at Fort smith this week where a hearing on the matter was to have been held, but this meeting has been postponed to later date. Those best posted concerning the matter are Of the opinion that the Interstate Commerce Commission will decide against the apple shippers, and it looks now that if apples are shipped to Texas in bulk they will have to be unloaded at destination. At least the railroads will not permit the apples to be ped died from the cars, although we un. derstand there will be no objections to selling from the cars in wagon load quantities, but of course the shippers will be required to pay de murrage on cars at the rate of $1.00 per day
