HOW REPORT AFFECTS CITY
Statement by Indian Commissioners
of Significance to Omaha Re-
garding Warehouse.
UP TO INTERIOR SECRETARY

(From a staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON. Jan. l7.-CSpecill Tele-
gram lin view Of the manner in which
the paragraph in the Indian appropriation
bill just passed the house. is phrased. with
reference to Indian warehouses, the re-
port Of the board Of Indian commission
ers becomes of paramount importance.
This report. made last December, has
direct bearing upon sne question whether
Omaha should be discontinued as a ware
house station for Indian supplies, Of first
instance, showing as it does that this
board has clear conception of it's
duties.
The report with reference to the exist
ing warehouse states: I'VE believe that
the action of congress in reducing the
number of permanent warehouses from
five TO three win not result in economy
or greater efficiency in this branch Of the
service. On the contrary. we apprehend
this action will operate to decrease com
petition for supplies for the Indian service
as II will result in greater comparative
cost for temporary Warehouses and make
impossible the retention of trained and
efficient force to handle this business.
THE experience of the Indian bureau is
an argument for the retention of a suffi-
cient number of warehouses to keep COM
petition among the bidders alive and the
arbitrary reduction in the number of
warehouses. in the absence of any reliable
data based upon an investigation, we be-
lieve will be found TO have been a mis-
take"
The conclusion of the board Of commits
sioners reached was that the old law rs
to the number of warehouses should be
re-enacted, but their location should be
left to the secretary of the interior.
Senator Hitchcock said today he would
look after the matter when the bill
reached the senate.

BERLIN (By Wireless to London. jan
1.-THE following official statement was
issued here this afternoon:
only artillery duels have takon place
on both sides i'm Flanders. Near Blangy,
east Of Arras. we blew up factory
building and took some prisoners. on
other parts OF the front artillery duels
OF varying intensity have taken place,
but In the sapping and mining areas,
nothing of note has occurred.
we made some pTogremm in the
Argonne, but heavy rains have hampered
operations along the entire front
Generally speaking. the positions In
the east are unchanged.
About four weeks ago. the order for
general attack, which had been deeidcA
upon by the French authorities in De
cember was given The attempted at
lacks OF the enemy In the western theater
were met by the necessary steps on our
part. The onemys attacks brought him
no success worthy OF mention. whereas
our Troops Of La Bassee, on the Aisne
and on the Argonne made very salts
factory progress.
The losses Of the enemy during this
period. counted by US. amounted to 20Ool
killed and about 1850 prisoners, He will
now know from experience that together
with the wounded, his losses are in pro-
portion OF l TO 4 apart from the number
OF sick aud missing. then grand total
being 10000 men. Our total losses for
the same period 90 not amount 10 one

TAKE PLEASURE IN HAGGLlNG
Tibetans Will Not Be Denied the Joys
That Accrue From the Sense
of Bargaining.

"Mornin' time, bargain time!" calls
out one of the peddlers by the way
side in Tibet cheerfully as he sees
you returning from glimpse of the
SHOWS at sunrise. You bid him come
to you, and from one of the innumer-
able pockets concealed in his volu-
minous robe he will produce a perfect
little Jade cup, or Tibetan coffee
pot. or gold copper and precious
stones, or perhaps a huge lump of
rough turquoise hewn to look like a
couch with a tiny gold Buddha reclin-
ing on it.
Then comes the bargaining. in which
he and all his friends take part against
your single self.
1t can all be done by signs and
smiles and patience and in the long
run you will get some things well
worth having at a very reasonable
price.
But you must have no false pride
about bargaining. 1t is an elementary
part of these peoples nature, and the
Joy of selling will leave them forever
when the day of haggling is done.

LAND MARINES At
PORT. NJ PRINCE
WASHINGTON GIVES FRANCE
PERMISSION TO GUARD lEGA-
TON IN THAT CITY.
FORCE WILL BE INCREASED
It Is Estimated BY Admiral Capertop
There Are About 10000 Men
Capable of Bearing Arms.
FORCE WILL BE INCREASED

Washington.-Fra has been given
permission by the United States to
land marines at Port Au Prince. Haiti.
for the protection Of the French Legal
ton in that city, where Admiral Ca
perton is in control.
The Navy Department gave out the
following statement:
Last night Secretary Of the Navy
Daniels received dispatch from Ad-
miral Caperton stating that the French
minister at Port Au Prince had re.
quested permission to land a small de-
tachment from the French cruiser
Descartes to guard the French lega-
ton, as he considered it fitting that
the legation should be guarded by
French troops.
Secretary Daniels, after confer
ence with Secretary of State Lansing.
cabled Admiral Caperton to afford all
facilities to the French minister for
the landing of crews"
This attitude of France shows that
she at least regards the United States
fairs in Haiti In the opinion of Off
Gals, it shows also that, after the
landing of marines by Admiral Caper-
ton, the United States must be re-
garded by foreign nations as fully re-
spons!ble for eventualities. The United
States will thus take care of not only
English and French, but German and
Austrian and other interests.
1t was stated that the danger In
the city is regarded as increasing. 1t
is expected by navy officials that as
Admiral Caperton has cabled that
more marines might be needed" the
department will at moments notice
send thousand marines as re-enforce-
ments from Philadelphia. either by the
Hancock or by the North Dakota. or
by both.
Navy officers say that the situation
may be made critical for the 400 ma
rines in Port au Prince at any moment.
They estimate the population at about
10000. There are, therefore. about
$4,000 men capable of bearing arms IN
the city and suburbs. Admiral Caper-
ton, officials say, foresaw the danger
of attack from the citizen snipers and
persuaded the local authorities that it
was in the interest of all concerned
that firearms should be taken away
from every citizen.
1t is said that about 5000 guns have
already been stacked up in the nation
al palace. which is being guarded by
Admiral Caperton with a strong guard.
The Spectator. (Ozark, Ark.) 1911-1916, 1915-08-03

Stop using calomel! 1t makes yo
sick. Don't lose days work. If you
feel lazy, sluggish. bilious or consti-
pated, listen to me!
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bone.
Calomel, when it comes into contact
with sour bile crashes into it, breaking

full nausea and cramping. If you feel

AMERICAN FLAG
TRAMPLED upon
AMERICAN CITIZEN CARRYING
DISPATCHES ARRESTED AND
THREATENED WITH DEATH.
MRS. w. S. LAMBEER,

Washington.-Anoth critical situa-
ton developed in Mexican affairs
when the State Department was in
formed officially that the American
flag had been trampled upon and torn
- pieces near Pachucha; that Allen
Mallory. an American citizen carrying
dispatches, had been arrested and
threatened with death. and that a
N'reign of terror" exists in the Mexi-
can capital.
The dispatch to the State Depart
ment says:
ALLEN Mallory, citizen of the Unit
ed States. % years of age. was assault
ed by Zapatistas while carrying CORE
spondence between Puebla and Mexi-
co City. He was riding in an automo-
bile flying the American flag. He was
accompanied by the son of the Chilean
minister, q Swiss citizen and Spanish
subjects The Spaniards were removed
from the machine and ordered to be
executed.
The American flag was taken from
the car, trampled upon and torn to
pieces. Mallory was taken to Mexico
City, where he was informed by Ia
patistas that he would be shot II he
made further disturbance.
'T5Jsre is an absolute reign of ter
ror as far as legal responsibility is
scc5nyrned"
It ASlndicated in another dispatch
that tae Spanish subjects who werc
\ with Mallory were dragged into the
mountains by horses. Their fate is
n unknown, although 1t is reported that
M"at last accounts, one of them was
y still alive"
u Mallory protested against the sem
eucing OF the Spaniards. one of whom
2vas his chauffeur.
Keep your mouth shut or you will

n no later released him. An investiga-
IPion OF the incident has been ordered.
