GETS ANSWER
OF CARRANZA

WASHINGTON, Dec. Is
Franklin X. Lane, chairman of
the American commission, was in
formed of CarranZa decision re-
garding signing of the border pro-
tocol in a conference with Chair
man Cabrera OF the Mexican COM
mission this afternoon.
1t is understood that an Off
cial statement concerning the
announcement will be made to-
night.
That Gen. Carranza has not
signed the troop withdrawal pro-
tocol, but has instead again sub
mitted contemporaries. was
the growing belief here today.
Men close in touch with the sit
uation said they believed Car
rama will seek another peace con-
ference.
Meantime it developed that Am
bassador Designate Arredondo
probably will leave here within
the next two weeks and may be
replaced by Cabrera.

affect ones health are misleading

A Street Car "Kick"

To the Editor:
1t seems to good many cable
patrons that the T. r. & p. uses
a high-handed method in the
treatment of their passengers.
Yesterday at 1870, when the
cable stopped, about 25 passengers
were aboard the car, the gripman
decided to telephone headquarters
and find out what the trouble was,
and announced that the cable was
down for the day" The conduc-
tor issued transfers on the Sixth
avenue line for those on top of the
hill, but those going only part way
up were compelled to walk.
One individual ask for his fare
but the conductor told him moth
ing doing" 1t does seem rather
strange that this company car
gouge the travelling public in this
manner.
And while I'm on the subject
here is another "holler. If one
gets transfer for the cable either
on Pacific avenue or PIT. Defiance
line, he can go either to Pacific
avenue or can walk up to Broad
way and they will carry one al
right; but if he has shopping tt
do on Market street, and tries tt
use his transfer at that point, hi
will be politely told to pay hi!
nickel or walk back to Broadway
again..

For the Women

Dear Editor:
Will you please ask the women
of Tacoma why so few OF them
ever seem to think of shutting the
door of the street car when they
pass out?
Being of thoughtful disposi-
ton. | have often sat and watched
how they go out and never shut
the door behind them, but seem to
think ii is the motorman's bust
ness to shut 1t, of course, but he
has to reach around behind him
to do it and 1t is harder for him.
The men always shut the door.
They seem to do ii without think
ing about it.
am q woman myself, and don't
want to say unkind things about
women, but | have to laugh some
times when | see them either sail
out as If doors could be expected
to shut themselves. or give
weak little tug that moves the
doors about two inches and then
go on as if they had done their
duty.
lways shut a car door unless
IL is intended to be left open; and
/ have had the motormen turn
around and look so surprised and
say thank you" very sincerely, as
If they meant 1t.
There are a lot of things women
take so much for granted that 1t
makes one tired.
The Times is a good paper to
say these things because 1t seems
to not be afraid to make any kind
of reasonable suggestions.
Yours truly,

FOR A
SCALP

Arrangements for a ''peace
conference" between city hall
belligerents, In which the
city commissioners and the
civil service board are named
as principals, were under way
Thursday.
This move was understood
to be the final step of the city
hall diplomats in their drive
to "get the scalp" of Clerk
Ellsworth of the civil SER
vice board.
On the motion of Commission
err Gronen, the council voted to
appoint Commissioner Petit a
committee of one to arrange with
the civil service board for the
conference.
The city fathers made no secret
of the fact that they intend, by
diplomacy, to induce the board to
Gust Ellsworth, and to replace him
with someone whom they consider
more efficient.
AS a compromise they will agree
to eliminate the cut in the clerks
salary, which was intended to put
the skidts under Ellsworth.
After Ellsworth Alone.
Petit, Gronen and Drake were
emphatic Thursday in their de-
NAL that they are trying to knock
out civil service.
The attack, it was asserted. was
directed at Clerk Ellsworth alone.
The commissioners said they were
willing to leave the clerks salary
at 500, provided they get diff
ferent man to fill the job.
If the peace conference Is ar
ranged, the question whether the
civil service board shall retain its
freedom, or shall be under the
thumb of the city commissioners,
will be at stake, it was asserted
by Controller Shoemaker.
Principle Mt Stake.
1.-THE civil service board now
has a legal right to appoint whom
ever it wants as clerk" said Shoe
maker. eff the board can be
forced to give up this appointive
power to the council through
threats of salary cuts it will lose
its freedom of action"
Some resentment was felt
among city employees Thursday
over the statement of Mayor Faw-
cett Wednesday.
This statement was declared to
be q move in the direction of gag
rule, by which the new Civil Ser
vice league, composed of city en-
ployes, would be deprived of free
speech and free action.
