There Is no doubt that the Secretary

oped and much dissatisfaction has been
expressed mt the failure Of the State
Department to take the Senate into its
confidence on Mexican relations generally
Mr.. Bryan had two Ions talks with
President Wilson to-day. supposedly In
regard to Mexican relations. He went
to the Cabinet meeting half an hour
earlier than his colleagues and remained
about an equal time after they left. II
was said that tie Cabinet did not discuss
any proposals relating to a change Of
policy.
Sir Cecil Arthur Spring Rice the British
Ambassador, came to the State Depart
ment late In the afternoon and discussed
the Benton case with Mr.. Bryan. 1t was
arranged that the United States Govern
ment should ask villa to give all possible
protection to Charles A. 8. Perceval. the
British Consul at Galveston. who has been
ordered to FL Psso to look after British
Interests.
After his conference the Ambassador
took occasion to pay a compliment to the

WILSON POLICY FAILS,
ASSERTS RICHARDS
Jersey Minority Leader Says
! Reform Bills Haven't
Curbed Trusts.

Questions Ability Of Chief Ex-

tiOnal Issue.
ATTACKS THE PRESIDENT

TRENTON. N. j.. Feb. 2l.-Taking as a
text the seven sisters" President VIII
sons trust measures enacted last year,
Assemblyman Emerson l.. Richards OF
Atlantic city. minority leader In the
House. publicly questioned to-day the
ability Of President Wilson to handle a
national campaign against the trusts.
He asserted that the President was
temperamentally incapable of putting
IDEAS OF social Justice into legislative
form.
The statement made by Mr.. Richards
is partly explanatory OF Il resolution he
introduced In the House last week calling
upon the Attorney General to enforce the
seven sisters and declaring that they
had become a dead letter.
To-day Mr.. Richards rather shifted the
blame for non-enforcement to the county
prosecutors and to the fact, as he alleged.
that the laws themselves are Incapable OF
rational construction.
+ ssays Old Abuses sim E,ist.
Commenting upon the alleged ineffec-
tiveness Of the laws Mr.. Richards said
THE same abuses of corporate power.
the same notorious monopolies and trusts
are operating with the same old cynical
disregard of the welfare OF the citizens
Of New Jersey.
I'VE are forced to the conclusion that
either the bills that President Wilson In
sisted upon passing are Intellectual or that
the Democratic Administration AZ repre-
scented by Its twenty-odd prosecutors OF
the pleas and Its State law department
Is unwilling to enforce the laws. In my
opinion both of these hypothesis are true.
THE fact Is that these bills affect the
smaller business man. while leaving what
is commonly termed big business without
any restraint whatsoever.
Attacks the "seven Sisters"
TN fact, one OF the seven sisters de-
iiberately exempts from the operation of
the act all existing corporations, while
the bill that undertook to define monopo-
lies and restraint OF trade was patterned
after the California act, which that pro-
gressive State was compelled TO repeal
because IL was found to be unworkable.
"On the other hand. these bills do fall
with extreme severity upon organized
labor and upon agricultural interests,
and It Is not to be wondered at that the
present Administration Is not disposed
to make victims of the innocent while
permitting the trusts to continue I'M
| molested.
Now that the same problems are TO he

| against corporate evils II Is proper to In
quire whether President Wilson's striking
| lack OF success In New Jersey is any guar

Palmer Gets A Tip.

A. Mitchell Palmer, Democratic boss of
Pennsylvania, and Democratic candidate
for United States senator, has paid an
official visit to the senate subcommittee
on postoffices and postroads aud has told
that distinguished body exactly what he
thinks of it.
Mr.. Palmer went to the senate SUBJ
committee in his capacity as chief pie
distributor for this state. He protested
that the place grabbers in the state were
making his life burden and urged that
his appointments to pos tofiices and other
places be confirmed.
Mr.. Palmer insisted that Senator Boies
Penrose was responsible for holding up
the appointments and he urged that the
Democratic members of the sub-com-
mittee act in the matter of combinations
without even consulting Senator Penrose.
Mr.. Palmer's suggestion was not pop.
ular. 1t brought out quite lot of i'm
portsnt information, however. Members
Of the senate subcommittee produced
records showing that quite a lot of Mr..
Palmer's appointees were unfit for the
places to which they had been appointed
and that prominent Democrats in the
several districts of this state had protested
against the confirmation of the unfit ones.
Prominent among the protesting Dem
ocrats from Pennsylvania was Jere s.
Black, the Democratic candidate for
lieutenant governor of this state in 1906.
Mr.. Blacks protest against the confirma-
ton of several appointments in the east
ern end of the state was based entirely
upon the alleged unfitness of the sp-
pointees. In several other cases in the
western end Of the state the same sort of
protests were shown Mr.. Palmer and

HUNGARlANS PATRIOTIC
Many In America Will Go Back to
War For Country.

New York, July 2S.-About to return
to Budapest, his American tour cut
short by the Austro-Serb war, Count
Michael Karolyi, leader OF the Inde.
pendent party in Hungary, sharply
criticised Austrias policy toward the
Balkan states while confessing that
since war had come Hungarians would
Loyalty support the empire.
IF Austria had pursued a policy OF
directly helping the Balkan countries,
If Austria had in the past made it a
point to be actively their friend, this
war would not confront u.s." the Hun.
garian said with vehemence.
"Since it has come, of course, all
Hungarians will support the empire
and internal differences will be dis.
missed while the empire is imperiled.
"As for the loyalty of the many
Serbs within Austro-Hungary it is
hard to say. But the Austrian policy
toward the Balkans has been all
wrong"
At the Austro-Hungarian consulate
it was stated that no notification of
war had been received nor had notice
to call upon army reservists in this
country arrived from the Austrian am
bassador, DR.. Dumba.
Natives of Austro-Hungary in the
United States number over 100000.
OF these all able bodied men between
the ages of nineteen and forty-two are
supposed to answer the empires call
for reserves.
Paul M. Pavlovitch, in charge of the
Servian consulate, said that 5000
Serbs went over to fight in the Balkan
war. Only about 1000 Serbs in this
country are natives of Servia, he said,
and there are somewhere around 100,.
900 American Serbs who are allies of
Austria.

COMING from the source it does, right at
headquarters where they have a chance
to observe and pass intelligent judgment,
the following estimate from recent issue
of the National Tribune, Washington, D..
e., is surely worth something: 1.-THE
people of Pennsylvania have awak ened to
true perception of the bugaboo that
every fake reformer in the State made OF
Senator Penrose, and concentrated upon
him all the virulence that characterized
the political campaign which brought the
present Administration into power.
Time has shown the absolute untruth-
fuluess of the allegations against Senator
Penrose, and has cleared thu peoples
eyes TO his real value to the State OF Penn
sylvania in the Senate of the United States
Senator Penrose is one of the ablest men
in the Senate, is devoted TO the proper
transaction of public business, is always
present in the Senate and committee
when he should be, and thoroughly in
formed as to the business of the day.
The subsistence of the froth of abuse
which has beaten around him enables
people to see and appreciate how really
strong and effective he is, and how much
Pennsylvania needs his retention In the
