MINISTER DRIVEN
 FROM MEXICO
Spanish Minister Beaten By carran. za's Orders When Accused of
 SheItering Enemy.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-Jose Ca. TO, Spanish minister to Mexico, has arrived here after being beaten and driven from Mexico. The minister still shows marks of the blows from the whips of the Mexican soldiers of Provisional President Carranzu.
 Carranza agents, Minister Caro de- clares, trumped up charges that he had sheltered enemies of Carranza and had effected the escape of sev- eral of the leaders of the revolution ary party from the country. Caro does not deny that he afforded shelter to foreigners in Mexico but has entered a vigorous denial that he interferred in the affairs of Carranza. He ex- presses intense indignation at the in- dignities which were heaped upon him by Carranza.
 He has laid his case before the State Department and has sent a complete report to the Spanish gov ernment. He reports conditions in Mexico as rapidly becoming unbear- able and predicts that America must soon intervene as Carranza has be- gan a system of persecution against foreigners.

LONDON BANKERS
 PREDICT PEACE Declare That Germany ls Staggering Under Financial Strain and
 Must Collapse.

LONDON, Feb. 12.-Leading bank CTS of London do not believe that the European war will last long and ex- press the belief that the end will come sooner than expected. They are inclined to make light of Lord Kitch. ener's statement when he declared that he did not know when the war would end but that so far as Eng. land was concerned it would begin next May.
 The bankers base their forecasts upon their knowledge of the finan. cial co .nditions in Germany. They say that the nation is staggering un. der a heavy strain and that it must soon collapse. Germany is said to be financing both Austria and Turkey, both of which nations have proved heavy drains upon the resources of the empire.
 Lloyd-George Chancellor of the Exchequer, is reported to be in Par. is now, where he is conferring with the French and Russian ministers of finance. It is understood as a result of the meeting that Britain will un. dertake to finance the Allies to an even greater extent than she has done in the past.

CROSBY HAS
 BEEN CALLED HOME
Although Afflicted With Loss of Sight She Has Left Wealth of Mem-
 ory Behind.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,, Feb. 12.- Mrs. Frances Jane Van Alstyne, known throughout the Christian world as Fanny Crosby, the hymn writer, died at her home here last night at the age of 95.
 Fanny Crosby was rendered blind when only six weeks old by the ap- ,plication of hot pouultlces to her eyes which destroyed the optic nerve. She was educated in the Institute for the Blind in New York City and af. ter graduating taught in the school for many years.
 Many of the hymns of which she was the author have been sung by millions of Christian people in all parts of the world who never knew that the composer was blind. During her long years of darkness she has composed more than six thousand hymns. Safe In the Arms of Jesus," "Jesus Keep Me Near the Cross," and "Jesus the Water of Life Will Give" ," are among her favorite hymns. Her favorite song of her own composition was "Hazel Dell" She was also the author of "There's Music In the Air"
