SOUTH AMERICAN TRADE
iPARLEYS ARE MAKING Salts
FACTORY PROGRESS.
Negotiations Promise Great Impetus
to Commerce With Two
Countries.

Washington, D. C.-Negotiations
which promise great impetus to
American trade with Brazil and Ar
g~entine are being carried on by the
Wilson administration.
Efforts are being made to have
these two countries reduce their tar
iff duties on products from the Unit
ed States.
Using Underwood-Simmons tariff
law as the basis for reciprocal rela-
| tions, the administration has pointed
out to the South American republics
that nearly all their products come in
to this country free of duty, while vir.
tually all products from the United
States are subjected to enormously
high duties in Brazil and Argentina.
U. S. Representatives Asked.
The representations have been re,
ceived favorably, and have progressed
so far with Brazil that action by the
Brazilian congress is expected this
spring.
Ambassador Morgan has reported tc
the state department that Brazil ex.
poets to revise its tariff thoroughly,
and that the minister of finance has
named a commission to present q
draft of the new tariff bill to the con
gress when it nvene in May.
The minister of finance has sug
gested to the American ambassador
that exporters of the United States
send representatives to confer will
this committee on the rates to bt
applied on American products.

Plan Of carranza Men is to Force

Critical.

Observation-Disclosures Wilson was
confronted by one of the most seri-
Gus and perplexing developments that
have arisen in the Mexican situation.
Mexico City is on the verge of starv-
alton.
Cen. Obregon, the Carranza COM
mander. refused to permit an interna-
tional relief committee, composed of
wealthy members of the foreign col
ony. to succor the needy.
Mexico needs no foreign aid" the
general is reported to have said.
All merchants who closed their
stores have been ordered to reopen,
under threat of punishment. Three
hundred of them, all Mexicans, have
been imprisoned. The people of Mex
leo City are living in terror of another
evacuation since Obregon has an.
nounced that he will not prevent loot
ing or pillaging for food OF money.
For the present the outcome of the
photographic correspondence with Gen,
lCarranza will be awaited. Hitherto he
has been reported as standing by all
the activities of Gen. Obregon. whose
purpose, according to officials, seems
to be to force the lower classes to en-
list in the Carranza army or starve.

BOTH NAMES ON MONUMENT
Secretary of War Garrison Makes
S~olomon-Like Decision in Case
of Memorial.

Washington, D. C.-Secretary Of
War Garrison used some of King
Solomon's theories of equity in de-
Gliding that the names of both of
President Tyler's wives should be
chiseled upon the monument which
congress has provided shall be erect
ed over his grave in Richmond. Presi-
dent Tyler's first wife died in the
White House, and was buried at her
home in Virginia. His second wife
died many years later and was buried
beside him in Hollywood Cemetery
in Richmond.
When the commission which has
charge Of the monument began to
prepare to erect it, they decided that
the wife who lies besides him in Rich.
mond should be named on the granite.
The relatives of his first wife ap-
peaIed to the war department, and
MI. Garrison decided that the name
of Letitia Christian, his first wife,
should be chiseled beside that OF
Julia Gardner, the wife Of his old
age.

RUSSIAN FLEET AFTER TURKS
Expected to Attack Ottoman Ships in
6osphorus Which Guards Con-
stantinopIe Approach.

London, England.-The Russian
Black Sea fleet is steaming toward
the Bosphorus, says a dispatch from
Rome. The Bucharest correspondent
of the Giornale d'Italia of Rome tele-
graphs that the Russian fleet has
passed Burgas, Bulgaria.
Burgas is situated on the western
shore of the Black Sea, near the east
ern extremity of the Balkans. 1t is
TG miles north of Adrianople.
Should the Russian fleet attack the
Bosphorus, it presumably would have
to deal with the Turkish fleet, which
is supposed to be in that region, the
most powerful of which is the cruiser
Sultan Selim, formerly the German
cruiser Goeben.
The Bosphorus is about IS miles
long and from one-half to one and
one-half miles wide. 1t is defended
with modern Notifications, which
guard the approach to Constantinople.

Government Asks Pay for Postage on
$4,000 Sugar Beet Campaign
Circulars.

Washington, D. C.-Suit to re-
cover $4,000 from Trueman G. Pal
mer, secretary of the United States
Beet Sugar industry, was filed here
by the government, which alleges
that sum was the proper postage on
100000 copies of Sugar at a Glance"

The governments bill alleges that
Palmer substituted his pamphlets for
tables of figures which we're used by
Senator Lodge in a speech in the
tariff debate and that the postal Off
Gals were deceived in believing they
we're proper matter to be carried
free. The incident received extended
attention during the lobby investiga

BODYFOUND| IN CAVE
HER DISAPPEARANCE REVEALED
EMPLOYERS DOUBLE LIFE.
Admits He Is Father Of Another Wo-
mans Children But Knows
Nothing of Her Death.

New Haven, onn.-The body of Lii
liam May Cook, a s~tenographer in the
office o a local factory, who disap-
peared a week ago, was found by a
man in a cave at the top of West
Rock.
There is no information yet as to
how the girl met her death. The fact,
however, that a revolver which was
in Miss Cooks desk was missed the
day she disappeared has caused a
theory on the part of some that she
took her own life.
Miss Cook was employed by Vir-
ginis Mayo, who, according to the
New Haven police, admitted he main
tanned Lois Waterbury, a former stem
ographer for him, and their two chill
dren in a home in Brooklyn, where
he and she were known as Mr.. and
Mrs. Dudley.
Before becoming a stenographer in
the Mayo establishment, Miss Cook,
who was but Is years old, served a
time as a nurse in the Dudley es-
tablishment.
Mayo admitted that he had taken
Miss Cook from the Dudley home in
Brooklyn to New Haven, but he de-
1lied he knew anything of her disap-
pearance. He said he got a letter
from a friend in Springfield, Mass,
stating the girl was seen there last
Thursday. i
Il never took the name of Dudley
he said. THE woman in Brooklyn,
who is known as Mrs. Dudley, is Lois
Waterbury, who was formerly a stem
ographer here in my office.
she is the mother of two girls, who
are my daughters, and / am going tC
adopt them. When our relations be
came such that they could no longer
be kept a secret in New Haven,
sent her to a house l wi in Brook
Ign, and she called herself Mrs. Dud
ley. l visited her once a week"

Nepotism Dead.

Representative Settle, one of the
Republican members who introduced
the anti-nepotism bill in the house,
requested that his bill be placed on
the informal calendar after it had
been amended many times when dis
cpssed for engrossment in the lower
branch Of the assembly. The bill re-
ceived similar treatment in the sem
ate, and the measure is virtually
dead.
During the discussion Representa-
tive Fulbright brought out the fact
that during the forty-ffth general as.
sembly, when the Republicans con-
trolled the house, cores of Repu-
licans had placed their relatives on
the payroll and that the Republicans
at that time never thought of any
nepotism bill. He said that the pres
ent administration had to make a de-
ficiency appropriation of $114, 600 to
liquidate unpaid bills on the Hadley
administration.

No Fire Marshal.

No Fire Marshal.
The bill creating and establishing
the office of state fire marshal prac-
tically was killed in the senate when
1t came up for engrossment. Twenty
one amendments were adopted.
A series offered by Senator Morton
transferred the appointing and super
vision of the marshal from the state
superintendent of insurance to the
governor.
Senators Harris, Rodgers, Whit
ledge, Gardner and others declared it
was dangerous to clothe any official
with authority like the measure
sought to confer upon the marshal.
Gardner declared the measur an
effort by the fire insurance COM
panies to harass the public, and Whit
ledge said it was a scheme to have
the state pull chestnuts out Of the
fire for the companies.
McClintic and Goodson favored the
bill and the former said it was a move
to reduce the cost of insurance. 1t
would do more, he said, to bring
about a reduction than any other
measure that could be passed.
After the bill had been amended
until there was little of the original
left, it went to the informal calen-
dar, from which 1t has little prospect
of being recalled

Shreveport, Louisiana. - Shreve-

Rail Rates.
The house of representatives by a
vote of 81 to 81, adopted an amend
ment to a committee amendment to
the public-service bill making it posi-
BILE for the public service commission
to establish "a maximum 212c passen-
ger rate in Missouri.
Efforts we're made to delay a discus
sion of the measure, but with a desire
to ascertain how the lower branch OF
the assembly felt as to railroad legis-
lation, there was a demand to con-
| slider the bill over the protest Of Rep
resentative Jacob Brett, who intro
duced the bill and who wished it
placed on the informal calendar.
Should the legislators acquiesce in
this request, the bill would die with
the adjournment of the assembly, for
it would never again be reached.
There were 40 committee amend
ments pertaining to regulations and
powers of the public service commits
sion, but the vital question, railroad
rates, was amendment No. 40. After
the others had received perfunctory
consideration and were approved, the
piece de resistance of the bill came
up for discussion.
Representative Correfl offered a
substitute amendment to the one Of
fered in committee hearings, making
it possible for the public service COM
mission to fix a maximum 2h-cent pas
senger rate.
