1AutIlOTAty NOt neal.
 Many prominent Mexicans here, however, are not inclined to regard this broad authority as real Others believe that Huerta has instructed the commissioners to place no insur- mountable objections to an amica ble adjustment of the difficulties with the United States, believing that the fail- ure of the negotiations might result in pushing American intervention, which they feel would not unite fac- tions, but force Huerta to fight alone.
 Continue Bitter Attacks.
 Mexico City newspapers continue to make bitter attacks on the United States. Alleged copies of the A,neri- can articles of war are being pub lished in the capital to inf1ame the public. They represent American military practices as cruel. The news papers of the capitai also are still il- sisting that the United States is vio- lating to the armistice, this time com blaming that the c-larter of war transports by the war eepartment is a direct violation.
 Four schools opened here today with native instructors and the same e machinery as before American occu- pation If this experiment. is success ful, General Funston plans to re-es- tablish the entire school system of the city. This plan is in line with his policy to gradually restore all local institutions under Mexican law.
 Outpost Lines Frightened.
 The recent trouble caused by Amer cans venturing into Mexico City has resulted in tightening all outpost lines. Themilitary authorities are determined not to be embarrassed because of the Americans venturing into dangerous territory, and only those having ur- gent business will be permitted to pass from the city into the interior. No obstacle however, will be placed in the way of Mexicans wishing to travel either in or out of Vera Cruz. New Life Apparent.
 The city is humming with new life and business is booming with the ex- cesption of distributions into the in- terior. General Funston is encour- aging all activities, offering transpor- tstion to the interior, but merchants inland so far have not availed them- selves of the opportunities offered.
 Clcan-Up Day.
 Under Red Cross officials Vera Cruz is celebrating continuous mu- nicipal cleanup day. Every street, alley and vacant lot is being cleared of rubbish and hundreds sof native laborers are busy washing down streets and carting away refuse. Restoration of the electric street lamps shot away during the fighting is about completed.

STOCK EXCHANGE PAYS
 TRIBUTE TO HEROES
Market Business Suspended to
 Honor Vera Cruz Dead.

Wall Street, 10:45 a. m.- The Stock Exchange was closed until II o'clock today owing to the services in memory of the Vera Cruz dead. First transactions were quiet, with an upward tendency. The best gains were made by Union Pacific and Missouri Pacific, which rose a point each. Missouri Pacific's strength was due to reports that the Kuhn-Loeb interest might decide to undertake the roads financing. Con- solidated Gas fell nearly two points on issue of new stock.
 Close.-The market closed easy today. Buying was more confident and prices advanced until pressure on special stocks induced realizing. In the late dealings the bears renewed their efforts to locate soft spots, and caused sharp decline in Canadian Pacific and Missouri Pacific, which affected the entire list.

The Circus Is Coming.

The circus is coming to Ellsworth. The
date is Thursday, July IS; the circus is
Howe's Great London Shows.
Howe's show has been in Ellsworth be-
fore, so that the people know what to ex-
pect. THE AMERICAN is not going to
quote from the press agents notices, but
going back to it's own files of two years
ago, this is what THE AMERICAN said the
day after the show was given here:
Yesterday circus day in Ellsworth.
There was real circus, too. Unlike many
aggregations called a circus, whose only ap-
peal to public patronage is on their faring
advertising sheets, this one of Howe's was of
different kind; it was ''short" on promises,
and 'long" on performances.
Beginning with its street parade, which was
one of the best ever seen here, it held eyery-
bodys attention throughout the day and
evening, and well into the night. Both per-
formances were of high order. The animals,
both Gagged and loose, excited admiration;
the ring performances - and three of them
were going on at once were diverting, and
held the closest attention. The acrobats were
far and away above the average. The clowns
were funny; the music was excellent.
In short, this circus, modestly heralded,
has come and gone, and has left an impress
sion greatly in its favor. 1t we'll deserved the
liberal patronage it received.

MANAGERS AT CALUMET

Houghton, Mich, Jan. 9.-That
the strike of the copper miners was
called by vote of the miners be-
cause of unfavorable working condi-
tons and not by the Western Fedora
ton. of Miners was the purport of
statements made to Gov. Ferris by
striking miners and officials of local
unions. Federation officials said
they attempted to delay the strike
until more propitious time.
Gov. Ferris will meet the mine
managers today to see if they are
willing to make any compromise with
the strikers. The miners officials
have stated they will stand on the
proposal of Federal Mediator John B.
Densmore of an 8-hour day, wages as
increased Dec. 1, amounting to prac-
tically SO minimum for miners, and
the return to work of strikers with
out discrimination except those who
have been convicted of felonies.
According to the books of the
union 7,715 men are on strike.

SAYS U. S. TROOPS WOULD BE
HELPLESS IN CASE OF WAR
Washington, Jan. a.-The annual
war scare" was hop Rep. Bartholdt.
characterized testimony before a
House committee by Maj.~Ben. Leo
nard Wood that U. S. troops would
be helpless in case, of war from lack
Ammunition and artillery.
Every year just before the army
and navy appropriations bills come
up in Congress we have war scare
talk from the department heads,
said Bartholdt. Snow they are using
the Mexican situation to scare Con-
gress into appropriating more money.
81 should like to know from Gen.
Wood what has become of the money
already provided. Before the Spanish
war we were spending thirty to
thirty-five million dollars annually
for the army. Now we are spending
about $11O,O00,0OO The army ought
to make show showing with this
money"
BarthoIdt's criticism was inspired
by a plea of Gen. Wood for appro-
priations of 100000 each for am
munition.
