portunity to inspect many choice speci-
mems.
The exhibit embraces mosque rugs Of
the Ghiordes weave OF the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries and many fine
examples OF early Kurdestan. Feraghan
and Herat weaves. Several authorities
now agree that many of the famous car
pets designated as Ispahan were In
reality the product OF Herat. a city be-
longing to Persia during the Safavid dy-
nasty and vying with Tabriz as an art
centre. For this reason unusual interest
attaches to a 'Herat production OF the

teristic Herati motif has been employed in
a finely wrought allover design. Tho size

son. Revocation Of Ziesler's adop-
ton of Miss Brandt was held valid by
the New York Surrogate's Court, and an
appeal IL now pending.
It is said that much Of the testimony
taken in Chicago was of surprising
nature. One witness was Dr. Vincent
J. Price. who sold his baking powder in
terests of Zieger. He Is so years old
and no feeble that 1t was necessary for
tho referee and lawyers to go to his home
for his deposition. Clara and Emma
Brandt, sisters OF George w. Brandt also
furnished evidence.
The substance of the testimony Of DR..
Price was that in conversation with Mr..
Ziegler the latter informed him that he

sisters was along similar lines. to the
effect that although there Mad been a for
NAL revocation by Ziegler of Miss Brandt
adoption there was verbal agreement
that the sixteen year -old girl was not to
surrender her rights in the estate.

MORE TROOPS ARE SENT
TO NACo, ARIZONA.

Further demonstration was made
by the government at Washington
Wednesday of its determination not
to tolerate continued firing by the
Mexican factions at Naco, Sonora, in.
to American territory, President Will
son after brief discussion with his
cabinet, instructed Secretary Garri-
son to comply with the request of
Arizona, for reinforcements to handle
a possible emergency situation. Three
regiments of infantry and three bat
teries of artillery were ordered to
Naco.
The general understanding was in
administration quarters that as
soon as the additional forces were
placed in position on the international
line the United States would return
any artillery or infantry fire which
might come from the Mexicans. AS
1t will require three days for the
troops to reach Naco. the Mexican fac
tions have virtually that period with
in which to comply yith the American
demands or be shelled out of their
positions. Reinforcements ordered
will bring the total force of the Ameri-
can army at Naco to about 5000 men.
including eleven troops of cavalry,
three regiments of infantry and six
batteries of artillery with twenty-four
guns.
General Hill of the Carranza faction
has 1900 men and General Maytorena
of the Gutierrez government $500
troops. Both factions have what Sec
retary Garrison describes as a fair
amount of artillery" The following
statement was issued by Mr.. Garrison
late Wednesday: In view OF condl-
tions on the border as he sees them,
General Bliss has requested that addi-
tional infantry and artillery be sent
him In compliance with this request
the following troops are being des-
patched to and placed under his com
mand These reinforcements are be-
ing requested and sent as measure
of preacution. The troops to be sent
are three regiments of infantry from
Galveston or Texas City and one bat
terry of AZ guns and two batteries of
Al Howitzers. from Fort Sill. Okla
Thus far the warnings to CarranZa
and Gutierrez have resulted in in
structions to Hill and Maytorena res
pectively to Regulate their fire so
that bullets would not fall into Ameri-
can territory. Either these instru7
tions have been received and disre-
garded or their receipt purposeiy is
not acknowledged in the view of high
officials here.
= Bullets have continued to fall across
the line during the past few days
The United States has already out
lined that it intends to take defense
an not aggressive" action and as
soon as It has an adequate force in
position, officials believe one or the
other of the Mexican factions will
withdraw. After a conference be-
tween Brigadier General Scott. chief
of staff and Secretary Garrison, the
eleventh. eighteenth and twenty-sec-
ond infantry regiments. each to carry
rations and supplies for ten days and
not less than three machine guns were
ordered from Texas City and batteries
A. and C from Fort Silt. Okla, to
Naco, Arizona.
