SAY "PLOT" WAS FRAMEUP
Huerta's Way to Get Rid of Enemies
II Is Claimed.


Two Felicistas, Fidonio Hernandez,
who was secretary to General Felix
Diaz, and Guilermo Meijueiro, both
members Of the house of representa-.
tives from Oazaca and who were ar.
rested in Mexico City when President
Huerta dissolved congress but were
later released, were arrested on
charge of being implicated in the plot
for an uprising ON Feb. 12.
Secretary of the Interior Alcocer
says the numerous sudden arrests
have prevente the conspirators from
formulating a definite plan. Up to the
time of their arrest they had merely
been developing a seditious propa-
ganda and the action of the govern.
ment had probably disconnected their
schemes. Secretary Alcocer said that
no political parties were implicated
but merely individuals who were in.
imical to the government
Prominent Felicistas deny the exist.
ence of a plot against the life OF
Huerta. They declare that the excite
ment was started and the charges
were made by the government as an
excuse for the arrest of the men and
to get rid of them. The police ex.
onerate the Felicistas, but declare the
plot was organized by partisans of
Carranza to bring about the over
throw of Huerta.

Every Reason For Improved Trade
Conditions, Says Dun's Review.
Dun's Review of Trade says this
week:
Recent improvement in business
conditions is in some measure senti-
mental and certain branches of trade
and industry have not shared in the
forward movement to any appreciable
extent. Briefly summed up the situa-
ton continues irregular, although
there is tangible reason for the better
feeling prevalent.
"A noticeable revival of activity has
occurred in some mercantile lines and
this is especially true of the leading
dry goods markets, in which prospects
appear quite favorable. Conservatism
is manifest where distant purchases
are involved but orders for immediate
delivery are steadily expanding, An
other reassuring feature is the fact
that the turning point in iron and
steel seems to have been definitely
reached"

EXPLANATION
is FURNISHED
GOnperS at Miners Convention
Defends Federation
RESENTS FILINGS FIRED At HIM
An Assessment For Copper Mine
Strikers in Michigan Would Have
Wrecked Federation, Says President.

In response to the request of the
United Mineworkers that he appear
before them and explain the alleged
apathy of the American Federation of
Labor in connection with the copper
miners strike in Michigan Samuel
Gompers, president of the federation,
addressed the convention.
81 have given and will continue to
give all that is in me to further the
strike of copper miners" asserted
Mr.. Gompers. "You may not know
that the miners only pay nine cents a
year to the American Federation of
Labor. That is all the other organiza-
tions affiliated with the federation pay
also. Do you think we can accumu.
late large defense fund on that tax?
Mr.. Meyer says the strike costs
about 100000 week. The federation
could raise only 100000 in six months
If every organization were to pay. An
assessment would mean the disintegra.
tion of the American Federation Of
Labor, for the constitution provides
for the expulsion of any union which
does not meet its assessments and
only about one-third of the unions
can pay"
Mr. Gompers denied that he main
tanned a machine to keep himself in
office and, as an illustration, said he
had two offers of positions from the
governor of a great state, one paying
$4,000 a year and the other 100000
but had refused both to continue in
the labor movement.
"The labor movement is a part Of
my life" he continued, "and I'm going
to stick to it. You may drive me out
of Office, but you can't drive me out
of the movement"
Answering the published reports
that the delegates had referred to the
executive officers of the federation as
| "fOssilized" and booze fighters, Mr.
Gompers declared that, although he
owns up to sixty-four years, he is as
well preserved as any man of his age
and that eight of the eleven men on
the executive council are total alb
stainers.
When Duncan Mcdonald, delegate
from Illinois, told MIR. Gompers that
he did make the reported statements
referred to the convention cheered.
Mr.. Gompers challenged any man
to show he had not done his work
thoroughly. He asked the delegates to
read the report on the development
of industrial unionism and said that
every encouragement for amalgama-
tion had been given by the federation.
The c-nvention voted to increase the
salary of President White from $4,000
to $4,000 a year.

Radium Bill Appears.

A radium conservation bill was in.
troduced in the house today by Chair
man Foster of the house mines and
mining committee, which provides for
government ownership and operation
of radium bearing ores on public lands
and distribution of the radium for free
use in cancer treatment. No effort
will be made by the government to
take over any private claims to radium
lands now being operated. Prospec'
tors will be encouraged to locate the
radium ores on public lands, but the
government will get the ores and ex'
tract the radium at its own plants or
at private plants under its supervision.
HolIer For Stock Exchange Legislation.
