The Cause of His Resigna-
ton from the State
Department
SOME PHASES
OF THE MATTER
Leaves the Department of
State Without a
Counselor

Washington, March 6.--John Bassett
Moore's resignation was effective yes.
terday and the state department was
without counselor.
Mr. Moore prepared to take up hi'
work for the Carnegie endowment for
international peace and later to resume
his place as head of the department OF
international law at Columbia univer-
sity.
Although the official correspondence
between President Wilson, Secretary
BRYAN and Mr.. Moore, announcing the
resignation, emphasized that the coun-
selor was leaving the government serv-
ice only because the term for which he
had promised to serve was at an end,
there was continued discussion in Off
cial and diplomatic circles of lack OF
harmony between Secretary Bryan and
Counselor Moore. and persistent stories
of how Mr.. Moore became dissatisfied
with the arrangement of his duties in
the state department.
While it was admitted that Mr..
Moore's views on the recognition OF the
Huerta government and the administra-
tons course in other foreign affairs diff
fered from those of his chiefs, all Off
Gals took pains to say that the coun-
selor had carried out administration pol
icies when once agreed upon.
One phase of the resignation being
widely discussed was that Mr.. Moore at
the end of his administration found him
self performing duties usually assigned
to officials far below the rank of coun-
selor and at times learned much regard
ing the administration policies from
news dispatches One such instance be-
ing referred to yesterday was when Mr..
Moore first heard, through the newspa
pers. of the sending of John Lind to
Mexico
Discussion of possible successors con-
tinued without any announcement OF
selection.
Hannis Taylor, former minister to
Spain; John Lind, now the presidents
personal representative in Mexico, and
Henry White, former ambassador to
France, were being mentioned.
The office of solicitor of the depart
ment also is vacant, no successor having
been chosen to Joseph w. Folk, who re-
signed to become chief counsel to the in
terstate commerce commission.

RHEUMATISM AND
BRIGHT'S DISEASE
Prof. BudlOng Was Quickly Relieved OF
Both Affections by Using Rheuma.

If you suffer from any form of rheu-
matism, remember that RHEUMA goes
to work quickly TO remove the cause, not
simply to relieve the distress. Many
years use has demonstrated that it goes
to the seat of the disease and expels the
poisonous matter through the natural
channels-the kidneys, bowels, liver and
skin.

rheumatism, also with Bright's disease

After learning the change of posi-
ton of the rebels, the federals sent
about 1000 cavalry out of Ojinaga
and threw out line from their
trenches in the town to within short
distance of the camp the rebels had
just left. Firing had been kept up
all morning by both sides on the
south end of town.
About 3 o'clock the rebels made a
charge on the artillery camp of the
federals. ThenIthe fighting really be-
gan in earnest. The entire federal
cavalry column charged the adVanc-
ing rebels and it was first one side
and then the other charging and re-
treating. The fighting was fierce for
four hours, and when the battle dust
and smoke cleared away it was found
the rebels had retreated to the noun
tains about Is miles away.
The loss of life was heavy on both
sides, as the constant rain of schrap-
mel, shell and rife fire was very eff
fectfVe. From personal observation
l would say that the rebels in the
closing days battle had 500 killed
and 200 wounded, and the federals
$50 killed and $50 wounded.

AZ rebels under Major Coma and
they were all executed today.

The federals captured today what

Christina Of Sweden, who was born

that she would some day become ruler
of Sweden, and when she was but six
years old she was declared queen, the
government being In the hands of q
regent until she became of age The
little queen was put through n very
exacting system of training. She
studied Latin, Greek, Hebrew poll

Riding and the chase were her favor

practically nothing Of the accomplish
