the prohibition and revenue planks of
the three parties showing that the
Democrats and Republicans stood
merely for the submission of prohibit

the Progressives stand for prohibition
by legislative enactment in addition to
submission of an amendment.
He also showed that the Progressive
party is the only one that shows a
definite plan for reduction in taxation
and charged that both the old parties

Waits ON CARRANzA.
American Withdrawal From Vera Cruz
Is Further Delayed.

Washington, Oct. 21.-The Mexican
national convention at Aguas Calientes
has approved the arrangement made
by American Consul Silliman and Gen.
eral Aguilar for Withdrawing American
forces from Vera Cruz.
General Carrenza is expected to is
sue proclamation giving guarantees
to citizens OF Vera Cruz, who have
served the United States.
The convention granted all the re-
quests made by the American govern
ment as a prerequisite to the with
drawal of the troops. The United
States asked that customs duties col
lected during the American occupation
as well as local taxes be not reim-
posed and that all Mexicans who had
served the United States in a civil ca
pacity and all clericals should be given
every protection.
The American government it is un-
derstood will not order withdrawal of
the troops or ships Until General Car
rama has formally issued proclama-
lions. There were some limitations
that Carranza's authority to issue the
manifesto might be doubted by the
Villa faction and some pronouncement
from the convention might be made in
its place.

ceived today in an official message

onment by the Villa faction.
Washington, Oct. 21.-There was
no official confirmation today of re-
ports that General Villas troops had
surrounded the convention at Aguas

TO TAX GASOLINE
House Members Hold Out for
Original Revenue Schedule.


Washington, Oct. 21.-Only three
disputed points in the war revenue
bill were up for consideration when
the conference managers of the two
houses on the measure continued
their sessions today. Settlement on
these points, It was believed. would
leave little difficulty in bringing the
remainder Of the bill into agreement.
The points in disagreement includ-
ed the senate amendments adding rs
cents q barrel to the additional tax OF
so cents which the house bill Origt-
nally levied on beer and the 1evying
of five cents a gallon on rectified spir-
its. The house conferees are vigor-
ously opposing these provisions and in
their place are insisting that the tax
Of two cents gallon on gasoline,
which the house originally levied but
which the senate struck out, should
be restored.
Cotton Relief Proposal.
While the conferees continued their
labors, representatives Of the cotton
states were ready when the house met
to make another effort to bring up the
compromise cotton relief proposal for
consideration, despite the fact that the
house rules called for consideration Of
the calendar today. The proposed re-
lief measures include the Lever cotton
warehouse bill. the Glass bill to author
ize the acceptance of one hundred per
cent commercial paper as basis for
federal reserve currency and special
amendment to the latter bill to author
ize the secretary of the treasury to de-
post in banks in the cotton and tobac-
eminent notes maturing January l.,
1916. Debate on the rule was in progress
Tuesday when the absence of a quorum
forced an adjournment.
