of the convention would constitute a
quorum.
The development of a split, which q
has been predicted would attend the
resumed meetings of the convention, was
indicated by the fact that at Friday S
meeting there was a dispute as to the
number of delegates to which Zapata Is
entitled. This matter was not de,
.ermined. and the convention adjourned
over until Monday.
The split which it has ben predicted
would appear in the convention was ex-
pected to be over this very question CT
Zapata's representation. Villa and
Zapata are agreed that Gutierrez is Ia
be depOsed, but are not agreed as Ia
who shall succeed him. Consequently, II
is expected that each will make a strug-
gle TO secure a control of the conven-
tion, in order TO secure the choice Of
his candidate. Zapata is regarded as
having a good case for a large share in
the conventions proceedings, as he has
been conducting most of the operations
against CarranZa since the taking OF
Mexico City.
Kill Another American.
The murder Of H. G. c. Atwater by
a Mexican at Tampico was reported to
the State Department. Atwater was
an American, but a receipt for a first
payment on a life insurance policy is
the only clue obtained to his connec-
tions in the States. Efforts to capture
the Mexican who stabbed him have
failed thus far. 1t is said that railroad
communication between Tampico and
Texas has been re-established. Train
service from Saltillo to the border will
be interrupted for a few days, how
ever, because all the trains have been
taken over for the movement of troops.
From Mexico City there was no train
northward Friday because of a lack of
fuel.
Carranza forces have been driven
from Tepic. the capital of the state of
that name, after three days fighting.
the State Department was informed
yesterday through the navy. Villa
leaders are said to be attempting to
preserve order there and in Sinalca, but
it is understood that conditions are
rapidly growing worse.
Gen. Jesus Carranza, brother of the
Constitutionalist leader. is reported to
have been made a prisoner at Salina
Cruz, at the western terminal of the
Isthmus of TehUantepec Railway The
United States consul there is endeavor-
ing to prevent the execution of Gen.
Carranza. The arrest of Carranza re-
suited from the revolt of the military
forces at San Geronimo.
The CarranZa agency here has received
reports of further victories for the con-
stitutionalist troops. 1t is said the move
ment against Puebla is progressing rapid
ly and that a bombardment of the city
was to begin yesterday. Gen. Robelo is
reported to have taken San Luis Potosi
after hard fighting.

which the scholars went through the exercises,

The hour spent with the pupils was most

of Danish in the public schools Of a place

prise may seem an anomaly, and SO it is
The reason of this however is plain enough
the need or use of instructing the youth Of
these islands in the language of the mother

consequences of which ara unfortunately

ANTIGUA CORN N

A copy of a circular recently issued by
DIR. TempHny, Superintendent of Argricul-
ture fOl the Leeward Islands, under direc-
ton of His Exoellency the Governor, has
been received at this Office, notifying that
the Antigua Government Granary will be
opened for the handling of maize on and
after May 3, 1915, from which date corn
Will be accep' ed for delivery on the terms
specified in His Excellency's Proclamation
of January 16 last (see agricultural Nea0S,
Vol. XIV, No. 1874, p. 53).
The following are the terms on which de-
liyeries will be accepted; ~ The co-opera-
tive plan whereby u first payment of Is. sd.
per bushel of shelled grain is nude to grow
ers, to be followed by o distribution of the
surplus profits of the undertaking after pay
ing all expenses and dedueung % per cent.
as The profit of the granary. (2) The pur-
chase of corn for cash ut the rate of IS. 81
per bu3hel of shelled grain. The quantlty
which will be purchased i'll this way is limit
ed to 5000 bushels, and in the FIRST instance
the time during which this offer remains
open terminates on June 80 next, 60 The
kiln-drying of corn, for which q charge not
exceeding sd. per bushel will be made; the
actual price charged for kiln-drying Will be
decided on the results of working, and may
be modified from time to time us circum-
stances dictate.
Further it is insisted that corn for pur.
chase by the granary must be clean, sound
and eun-dried, and corn on the cob must
have the husk removed; not less than 100 lbs.
of corn on the cob or 8 lbs. of shelled grain
will be purchased; corn on the cob for deliy-
cry should for convenience be put up in
bags weighing 100 lbs. each--bags to be
returnable; corn sent to the granary for
drying must be packed in bags, in which the
kiln-drying grain will be returned. corn
will not be stored after drying for more
than two days, and intention to deliver corn
at the granary should be notified to the
Manager two days before delivery is effect
ed, and at the same time information fur
nished rs to the manner in which the corn
ie to be handled.
It is mentioned that arrangements nre
also being made for the erection Of . meal
making machine at the granarAy, and in adj
dition to the operations of kiln-drying, it is
anticipated that facilities will shortly exist
for the conversion of corn into corn meal,
for persons so desiring. Particulars con-
corning this are promised shortly. The
management Of the granary is vested in q
Board appointed by the Government, and,
it is added, the Government of Antigua re-
serves to itself the right of selling corn I'M
der the title ofHntigua Granary, Kiln-dried
Corn.
Finally it is pointed out that the kiln

proper condition. Neglect of this precnn-
ton can only result in disappointment an
loss. 1t is hoped that abundant success will

On June 18th School Director Rubner
Petersen awarded Miss f. Ogaard, sewing
mistress at Hospitalgade's communal school,
a prize of $40, given by a Dane, for her long
and continued interest in the language. li$er-
allure, and history of Denmark, and for her
ardour in acquiring knowledge of same.
Apropos OF The foregoing, we may men
ton what a pleasant surprise WINS in store
for our editor the other day when he visited
the abovenamed school. The first thing
that impressed MS, as it always does, is the
suitableness of this spacious building, so
admirably adapted in every respect, as if it
had in fact been designed for the purpose,
and only awaited the coming of the School
Director, through whose foresight the long
unused building was secured, the possession
of which made possible the scheme of re-
folm in the educational system of the public
schools, the satisfactory results of which
are SO obvious.
The surprise alluded to however was not
so much the airy. well-kept building, or
the ~neatness and general orderliness
OF the arrangements in the class rooms,
though these attracted notice. It was
in the apartment Of the senior class in
Danish that the surprise awaited US. Here
were a number Of boys and girls with their

RUSH FOR SMALL LOANS

The Morris Plan Of Industrial Loans
and Investment. the banker and lender
for persons Of slender purse. has found
after Ave months OF operation in New
York that the demands upon Il arc 50
great that II will have to raise its
capital from 100000 to $1,000. 900. In
a preliminary vote OF stockholders BY
proxy yesterday the proposition to issue
the $500, 900 additional stock was ap-
proved. A formal vots will be taken
later.
The directors and friends OF inc Nor.
ris Plan have thus far already subscribed
100000 OF the new stock. The busl-
ness OF the Institution has become "a
large that It has been necessary for
the time being to discourage many per-
sons from seeking loans until the work.
Ing machinery. particularly the inves-
tigatins department., can be enlarged
and developed.
The loan agents In New York have
been hard hit by the establishment Of
the Morris Plan here. II was learned
yesterday that as o as tho loan
agents to whom persons OF small means
are pound for heavy obligations learn
that these persons have obtained loans
at the Morris Plan bank they inrned,-
ately capitulate. The legal department
OF the Morris Plan takeA hold OF all
cases where needy patrons are In the
hands OF loan agents.
In many OF the cases handled thus far
the loan agents have settled claims
against persons who have been accepted
as borrowers from the Morris Plan for
amount much less than the notes they
held called for. In one case a loan
agent claim OF $3.50 was settled for
nothing.
Thus far about s25o.ooo has been
loaned by the Morris plan. On one day
there were 1000 people at the Office
seeking Information, About 1000 have
received loans. 1000 having applied. Tn.

throw lis unlimited support TO the side
OF one or the other OF the factions. II
a choice were made to-day Carranza
would seem TO have the best claim for
such support. II has been often con-
tended that by not only recognising but
assisting In many ways at It's dis
posal one faction in Mexico the United
States might bring about better con-
ditions.
1t is pointed out tina the supply Of
arms and ammunition might be with.
held from one side or the other, thus
rendering II practically helpless. This
would be especially easy at this time.
when Europe needs all tho war NUM-
tons that she can produce and more,
making the United States the sole source
OF supply. There are many other prac-
teal measures which have been sue-
gested to further such . policy.
The other alternative 10 Intervention.
Relief Work Difficult.
The greatest danger Of the latter
seems to lie IN the dinacuity OF getting
food n Mexico. For months II has
been admitted. even in Administration
quarters. there could be no effective re-
lief work done in Mexico until there was
free access to Mexico city from Vera
Crus.
Tho railway between these two points
Is now controlled partly by Carranza
and partly by villa and Zapata. on
Gals hold that neither can be held wholly
responsible for the imposslbility OF open.
ing II up under such conditions. This
railroad IL the key to the entire situa-
tlcn and would a to no seized By the
United States II the rival factions could
not be brought to agree to a method OF
its regular and secure operation.
1t is doubted II such an agreement can
be brought about. For fou months both
factions have been giving Mr.. Bryan the
most cordial assurances OF their cooper
alton in this regard. but only to-day Mr..
Bryan got word that II had again been
found impossible to arrange for refu-
gee trains out Of and supply rains Into
Mexico city.
Thu question of this railway to Mex
leo city and tho necessity Of keeping
II open was the one Of which represent
atives Of European Governments have
laid most stress In their frequent dis
cussions OF the Mexican problem with
the United States. The British, French
and German Representatives have had
but one view on his question and most
pointed dispatches on 1t have been re.
ceived at these embassies here from
Mexico city.
TUT WontnS 'NfIe mas peen INFORMAL
but unmistakable' pressure from Europe
on tho United States In regard to Mex
leo, but with such a conspicuous lack OF
results that Representatives OF these
Governments have virtually thrown up
their hands and ~despaired Of the United
States doing anything.
A significant fact In connection with
the European attitude regarding Mexico
has been the common determination on
the part Of other Governments that as
soon as AFFAIRS in Europe were settled
pressure would be brought to bear on
tho United States In regard 10 Mexico.
1t has been plainly intimsted that either
the United States would act or Europe
would, II has been admitted In Official
quarters here that the European wal
was a blessing to the Administration in
its Mexican policy. rs It removed for
the time the implied threat Of action
