PEACE APPEAL HAS
BEEN DELIVERED TO ALL

Washington, Aug. 31.-The Pan
American peace appeal has been de-
livered to all military and political
leaders in Mexico. Several leaders in
remote sections have just been reach
ed by courier, and TO give them time
for reply there probably will be no
meeting of the Pan-American confer

General Carranza's reply still. is
lacking but it has been authoritative
ly declared that the conferees will pro-
coed irrespective of his attitude.
Major General Scott, chief of staff
of the army, conferred with Secretary
Lansing today and reported the re-
suit Of his conference with General
Villa and other northern Mexicans.
General Scott said Villa and his adj
herents were sincerely anxious for
peace.
General Villa" said General Scott,

Mexico, and he is willing to sacrifice
any personal ambitions and to elIni-
nate himself if necessary in order to
bring it about"

STREET PARADE
UNIFORM RANK A
GREAT FEATURE
Thousands of People Lined
Streets to Witness the
Spectacle.
ALL COMPANIES
WERE IN LINE,
At Conclusion of Parade.
Welcoming Speeches
Were Delivered.

Thousands of people lined thestreets
last night to witness the impressive
parade of the Uniform Rank, Wood
men of the World, the only d;sap-
pointing feature of which was the
change of route.
1t had been previously annourcad
that the parade line would form at
the corner of Main and Palafox
streets, and that it would move north
on Palafox to Wright, thence wheel
to the opposite of PaIafox and re-
turn south, to the stand erected near
the San Carlos hotel. Instead.
change was made yesterday, too late
for public announcement, and the line.
reaching Garden street, went east tn
Alcaniz. Thence it turned on Garden
and returned to the stand, where H.
disbanded.
Returning to the stand at the San
Carlos hotel and disbanding a num-
Der of welcoming speeches were
heard, to which responses were made.
These were heard by comparatively
few people, from the fact that the
crowd was so dense, the autos 80
plentiful and the incident din SO high
that only those gathered immediately
F. E. Kollo acting chairman, nitro
duced number of local sls wei as the
visiting speakers. George H. Hervey
gave the address of welcome in the
absence of Mayor Greenhut, who was
i'll, to which response was made by
Col. Mills. President C. E. Dobson
welcomed the visitors on behalf of the
Pensacola Chamber of Commerce,
Brighten. Nall, responding.
R. Pope Reese welcomed the visi-
tors on behalf Of the local Woodmen
of the World as well as those of the
state of Florida, to which Col. Elkourie
chief surgeon, of Birmingham, re-
sponded. Col. Elkourie spoke feeling
ly, and told in beautiful language how
very appreciative the Uniform Camp
was, for the graciousness which had
been extended during the stay of the
visitors.
Practically all those in camp were
in line of parade which was lead by
Chief Sanders as grand marshal, and
a number of mounted aides. Despite
the advance line of parade however,
the crowds surged out into the streets
and were driven back with difficulty.
Two bands furnished music for the
parade, and thousands lined the side
walks to witness the companies Of
Woodmen. It was one of the most at
tractive of street parades ever put on
in Pensacola, and as the large num-
Der of companies passed in review,
many comments of surprise and pleas
ure were heard.

QUESTION OF A
.PROHI ELECTION
YET UNSETTLED
Further Time is Granted
Drys by the Board of
Commissioners.
OVER 200 NAMES
WERE WITHDRAWN
Board Decides to Take Up
Question for Final Set
Element Tuesday.

After hours of comparison of sig
natures on withdrawal cards and the
same names on petitions, the board
of county commissioners decided, in
Difference to request from repre-
sentatives of the Prohibition League
to let the question of whether or not
an election be called, go over until
Tuesday night of next week. At that
time, it is said, the prohibitionists will
have decided upon the next move, and
the question will be brought to a
head.
The county commissioners held a
long and tedious session yesterday,
with Commissioner Baggett absent.
The principal feature of the meeting
was the matter of comparing the
checked withdrawal cards with the
signatures of the card signers and the
same names on the petitions. AS a
result over 200 signatures were or
dered taken from the petitions. This
brought the number of signers of the
petitions for election below the re-
quired rs per cent, and the check was
then stopped.
The remaining cards, and those UNI
checked and not compared, will be
49, ..s4.----z
with the names on the books used in
the Bryan primary election.
Both sides contended during the
meeting that there were evidences of
fraudulent signatures.
After the 200 or more names for
which withdrawal cards were present
ed had been taken from the count this
brought the number of signers to the
petitions below the required 25 per
cent of the voters, the work of check
ing the cards was discontinued, at
least for the present.
Mr.. Osgood, representing the pro-
hibition side, entered a strong pro-
test against the board considering the
withdrawals, and asked for time to
permit them to go into the matter d
signatures already approved and COM
pared, as we'll as the unapproved
withdrawal cards. He therefore re-
quested that they be permitted to have
until Tuesday to see what their next
move would be.
Commissioner Davis moved. that
the matter of deciding whether or not
| the election would be called, be de-
ferred until next Tuesday, and the
motion was seconded by Commission
er Tracy.
Robert Anderson, appearing for the
anti-probibitionists, said that an eiec'
ton required full thirty days notice
be given, and that if the question was
delayed until Tuesday night, it would
mean that the first of October, wheT
licenses were due and payable, would
come and go before the election coulc
could be held. He wanted definite &C
ton taken at once.
| Mr.. Osgood, again addressing tn
board, intimated that the prohibition
lists had been taken by surprise.
The county attorney said the boar'
was acting In perfectly legal man
ner, and had legal right to consNe
the Withdrawal cards, and had ampl
i authority to check, verify and reduc
the names. The motion of Commits
sioner Davis, however, that final &C
ton be postponed until Tuesday nigh
next, was carried.
