dor said he learned from an unim-

NO AID FOR MOTHER
OF DEAD SOLDIER

Washington, Aug. 13.-President Wilson
Brooklyn, n. Y, mother Of William Com
pers. the sailor killed by Haitien sniper
during the American occupation of Port
Au Prince. The Presidents letter was
in reply to one from Mrs. Gompers in
which she said she was proud that her
son had died in the service of his coun-
try, but that as he had peen her sole
support she hoped the government could
help her in some way.
The Presidents letter. given out today
at the White House, follows:
"My Dead Madame: l have read your
letter of Aug. 3rd with the deepest SYM
pathy. I feel like congratulating you
on having had a son whose dignity it was
to die in the service of his country, but
my heart goes out to you none the less
in profound sympathy.
II am sure that it would be the desire
of everyone connected with the public
service to see that you did not suffer
need because Of your sons death. l am
sending your letter to the secretary of
the navy to inquire whether there is any
possibility under the law as it stands
Of assisting you. l fear that there is not,
but I am sure the secretary of the navy
will wish to consider the matter very
fully.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON"

&C., livestock commission dealers, adj
mitted that they had received a re-
quest from a London broker several
weeks ago for an estimate on fur
nishing one million American beef
cattle delivered at Liverpool. The firm
said they were led to believe the
broker making the inquiry represent
ed either the Enplish or the French
government and that the live cattle
were wanted for the army.
Clay, Robinson & Co.. do not do an
export business and for that reason
declined to make an estimate on the
order. Several other dealers were ask
ed to bid, but so far as could be learn
ed. they all declined.
The large packing companies denied
all knowledge of the subject further
than to say that they had been max
ing small shipments Of live cattle to
France for several months, presum-
ably for the army.
