WOMEN WORKERS
BESIEGE WILSON
to Hear That President Can't
Urge Legislation.

Washington, Feb. 2.-Aiming to
enlist the presidents support in their
campaign for suffrage, 400 women
workers from 10 states were received
at the White House today, Miss Mar
guerite Hinchey, laundry worker of
New York, and Miss Rose Winslow a
Pennsylvania weaver, were spokes-
women of the delegation.
1t was the second time the presi-
dent had been brought face to face
with the suffrage question in an Of
fetal way and his attitude already
was known. He holds that he cannot
urge Legislation upon congress that
has not been the subject of -"0rganic
party consideration" This was what
he told the American Woman Suff-
rage association two months ago.
He made 1t clear that he had already
expressed himself as personally In
favor Of the creation of house COM
mittee on suffrage and had so inform
ed n member OF the house rules com
mittee, who had asked him his per-
sonal opinion. When his personal
opinion was asked by those who were
cooperating with him the president
said he freely gave it, but as the
spokesman Of the Democratic party
he felt that he could not speak of
ficially until there had been "organic
consideration"
Virginia suffragists were represent
ed in the delegation.

COIN OF D|Az REIGN
NOW COUNTERFEIT
Rebel Government Issues De-
cree Effective February 10.
MINT READY TO MAKE COIN
Palace Homes of Creels and Ter
razas Turned Into Stables
by the Rebels.

Chihuahua, Mex, Feb. Cur
rency issued by the Bank Of Sonora,
the Bank of Minero and other banks
established under the Diaz regime,
will be treated as counterfeit money
after February 10, under a decree to-
day issued by the rebel government.
The free and unlimited coinage Of
silver will be offered as a means Of
providing ample money.
The embargo against the old bank
currency, which is frowned on as a
survival of the Cientifico days, when
the Creels and Terrazas we're In DOW
er, will render worthless in the rebel
territory millions Of dollars in paper
money. The circulation of all paper
OF individuals and corporations is pro-
nibited after today.
mint has been established for the
image of silver bearing the Constitu-
alist stamp.
OFFER FREE COINAGE.
The offer of free coinage will be ex-
tended to all bullion owners. The
! rebel Government is already in posses
sion Of much bullion, which will be
coined to enrich the treasury. 1t also
was announced that large American
smelling interest, which controls in
dustries in Colorado and other parts
OF the United States, has entered into
an arrangement for the immediate
opening of a smelter in chihuahua,
which has been closed for many
weeks. The smelter will provide an
outlet for thousands OF tons of ore
brought out of the Chihuahua
mines since the revolution began.
Under the terms the rebels are to re-
ceive percentage OF the mining and
smelling profits.
While eXorbitant prices are asked
for food products in Chihuahua, the
rebels have assumed control OF the
beef supply and are selling 1t at 6
cents pound. The proceeds go into
the treasury. All dealings in cattle,
hiefiy OF the Terrazas ranches, are af-
dafrs OF State directed by Gen. Villa.
FORM PALACES TO STABLES.
Confirming assertions of Gen Villa
that, although his power is supreme
in Chihuahua state, he, nevertheless
is second to Gen Garranza, all the Of
fetal documents refer to Carranza as
the chief. Homes Of the Creels, Ter
razas and other rich families continue
to fall into the hands of the rebels,
who use them as Government stables
and cuartels. In the absence of Gen.
| CarranZa Gen Villa continues to WELD
the power of the Court, the Legisla-
ture and all government functions.
Gen Villa expected to return from
Juarez within a few days to begin the
campaign against Torreon Advices
from the south today were that the
Federals at Torreon would present a
stubborn front to the rebel advance
The rebels base has been moved south
ward to Jimenez and Escalon.

SHORT ON MEAT ANIMALS.
Nine Reeves, Seven Sheep and Three
Hogs Less For Every 100.

Nlne reeves, seven sheep and Three
Hogs Less For Every 100.
Washington, February 1.-Shorta-
ge OF meat animals in the United
tates was strikingly demonstrated by
comparative figures today made pub
lie by the department OF agriculture.
The report showed that there are
nine less beef cattle, seven less sheen
and three less hogs now for each 100
persons in the country than there
were in 1910.
While the population OF the country
is estimated to have increased from
91.972,000 to 98,646,000 in the past
three, years the number OF beef cat
tie has decreased 12.9 per cent and OF
sheep So per cent The number OF
swine increased slightly, 13 per cent
but 1t did not keep up with the pro-
portlonal growth of population.
In spite of the reduced number it
is estimated that the value of cattle
in the country increased from ST.
534, 100000 in 1910 to $1,93O,OS7,-
600 on January / 1914.
This increase in value however, "
the department pointed out, "does not
necessarily mean that farmers or
stock raisers are making more, IL any
roft On the contrary the cost of pro-
duction has probably increased more
rapidly than the increase in the sell
ling price OF live stock.
THE very fact that there is q pres
ent shortage of nearly 10000, 900
meat animals in the United States
since the census OF 1910, indicates
clearly that the business is not pro-
fitable to producers"

Douglas, Ariz., March 27.-Notice
that any ships employed in the service
Of the Huerta government would be

lished here today by Roberto Pesqu-
EZRA, confidential agent of Gen. Car

'COnstitutionalist" forces on the west
coast of Mexico. The message reads:
In view of the fact that warships

tify all ship owners and Outfitters
that our vessels have strict orders to

Recognition Not Involved
Attorneys who have studied the
law applying to this form OF counter
feiting and of passing counleIielI
money say that there IS no quesuon
of the recognition of the belngerency
of the Mexican rebel government IN
volved in the complaints. The statute
plainly reads the passage or bogus
money of n foreign country and
this applies like a blanket to all forms
OF currency. In addition to the fed
eral charges which have been made
against the men having the counter
felt fiat money in their possession,
the probability of arrest1ng men by
state authorities on the charge OF
swindling is being considered in cases
where the money has been passed by
persons knowing that it was not gem
uine. One man who bought $1,000
worth of "COnstitutionalist" money
had it examined Thursday afternoon
and discovered that only $40 of the
entire lot was good.
Many Specializing in Fiat Money.
Since the demand has been brisk
for "COnstitutiOnalist" money a num-
Der of brokerage firms have been
buying and selling it on commission
and number OF brokerage stores have
been opened to deal exclusively in
this form of money. As much of the
rebel money now in circulation is
known to be counterfeit these firms
may be hit hard by the discovery of
the wholesale cOunterfeiting. Already
more than $4,000 worth Of counter
felt money has been held as evidence
by the officials and at each prelim-
mary hearing rolls of it are made a
part of the record.
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1914-03-27

T n banks, stores and business
houses men may be seen with
their heads together and two
pieces Of printed paper before them
which they are examining closely.
Tt is Constitutionalist money that
they are examining in an effort to
detect the genuine from the counter
felt. FL PasO has been flooded with
more than a half million in counter
felt fiat money of the Chihuahua state
government and in addition to the
Possibility of buying bogus currency,
there is the added danger of being arr
rested by a United States marshal on
the charge of having in your pos.
session with intent TO circulate, false,
forged or counterfeit money of a for
eign country" Nine arrests have al
ready been made On this charge in
considered safe to have any of the
bogus currency in ones possession.
How to Detect Difference.
This naturally causes the question
OF how the real can be detected from
the counterfeit, to be asked by men
who are forced to deal in the fiat
money for the payment of cattle du-
ties. export duties, taxes and other as
sessments in rebel controlled Chihua-
hua Experts in JuareZ have been
employed to reStamp the genuine and
take M the counterfeit and destroy
It. But dealers, bankers and others
who handle this class of money do not
care TO run over to Juarez every time
they wish to test the genuineness Of
paper money presented TO them. The
rebel government has promised to es-
tablish a branch of its treasury de-
partment in El PasO where such
money may be carefully examined and
the genuine marked to distinguish it
from the counterfeit.
However, until this is done the local
merchants and business men are do
ing a bit of expert money eXamina-
ton on their own initiative. Having
obtained one of the bills that has been
restamDed in Juarez, they compare all
money that is offered them and If it
compares they accept it in payment
for goods purchased and in exchange
for American money at the prevailing
rate.
Discrepancies Are Numerous.
There are many ways TO distinguish
between bad and good rebel money
BY placing two of the bills side by
side, the difference may be readily
SEEN. The only difficulty of the anna
teur examiner is in telling which is !
genuine and which is bogus. The $50 /
note Of the Chihuahua state govern
ment is the one which has been most
widely cOunterfeited. The printing on /
the counterfeit note is much paler j
green in the background than that OF I
the genuine bill. The serial number /
