Attorney General Cosson digs deeper
into the record of the alleged swind-
Ter of Davenport. arrested for work
ing a fake horse race on an Iowa farm
er. the more convinced he is that
500, 900 was taken by the men from
Iowa farmers in different parts OF the
state. Cosson's agents say that In
one locality $4,000 was secured by the
swindlers in six weeks. An odd fea-
ture of the Davenport case, according
to Cosson, is that William kearns OF
Dunlap. who was swindled out of s10,-
200. came back second time for $1o..
600 more. He was not used the second
time as 'plant" by Cosson's agents.

David Fisher of West Chester, IS
said to have lost another $4,000.
The swindlers worked for time IN
Des Moines and velley Junction. John
w. Brown, under arrest, is. according
to Cosson, wanted at five different
places. He has served time IN Sing
Sing. Cosson says. Harold Ward, an
other man. is known to California po-
lice. T. w. Reeves is also well known

WASHINGTON. Aug. 5.-The Mexi-
can government is willing to enter
irto general discussion of problems
affecting the economic situation there,
as well as the matter of troop with
drawal. This information reached
here today in confidential messages
from official sources in Mexico City.
Receipt of this word served to clear
away doubt as to whether Carranza
had shut the door on discussion
of other than military matters in the
proposed American-Mexican confer
ence. 1t had been believed by some
officials here that he still opposed
negotiations over broader scope OF
affairs.
This government will. rot appoint
its commission, however, until 1T is
fully satisfied that the conferees can
get together in broad minded way
on broad gauge plan for improving
Mexican conditions.
