DISCUSS MEXICAN STATUS
TROOP WITHDRAWAL AND IN
TERNAL CONDITIONS.
Joint Commission AdIeurns Work for
Week Without Arriving at Any
Conclusions.

New London, Conn.-The Mexi-
can-American joint commission has
virtually concluded its work for
this week. A majority of the com
missioners are out of town today and
the conferences will not be resumed
until Monday. Alberto PAM, of the
Mexican commission, is in New York.
Luis Cabrera, head of the Mexican
commission, expects to leave for New
York and Ignacio Bonilias, the third
member, has planned to be in Boston
today. DR.. John R. Mott, of the Amer
lean commission, also has an agree
ment that will take him away today.
Ma1or-General Bliss, assistant chief
of staff of the United States army,
who has been here in an advisory
capacity, is expected to return on
Monday.
The Mexican representatives, in
the absence of any official reports to
the Mexican commissioners, have
accepted as authentic Gen. Bells ac-
count of the raiding of Chihuahua by
Villa. Discussion of this report took
up a large part Of the commissioners
time at the conference.
General conditions in Mexico were
discussed again and the American
commissioners submitted more re-
ports gathered by the state depart
ment ON conditions in Mexico. In a
rather general way the subject Of
withdrawing the American troops was
discussed, the Mexicans expressing
the opinion that Gen. Carranza's ar
my was capable of coping with the
situation in the region now patrolled
by Gen. Pershing's forces.
That the renewed activity Of Villa
in chihuahua would delay any agree
ment as to a plan Of border control
apparently was taken by the Mexi-
cans to be a matter of course.

erage mileage represented in 1915

London, England.-Prince Alexan-

the Neue Zuricher Zeitung appealing
to the pope and to President Wilson
to bring about ian honorable peace"
The prince, as quoted, contends
that the wal will be ended either by
a compromise or by the complete
ruin Of all the belligerents. There
are two men, he says, able to pre-.
vent the cataclysm and they are the
pope and President Wilson. The
power of the president, according to
the prince, is his ability by a single
word to stop the expectation Of NUM-
tons of war from the United States.

Refuse. sprY. Amendment.

Secretary Of State Roach has a.
clined to allow the parties RESPONSE
BILE TO place the prohibition amend
ment on the ballot for the November
election.
The secretary in refusing TO accept
the petitions, gathered under the in
iative. states his reasons. and the
"drys" are much agitated.
He has offered his assistance in
taking the matter up Wa the SUI
preme court, and the case is now
pending.
Secretary Roach, in his letter In
forming the dry leaders Of his refusal
to put the amendment on the ballot.
quotes from the federal constitution
to sustain his position. He said ac-
ton on the prohibition amendment
would be a violation Of the constitu-
ton, as the passage of the amead.
ment would trespass on the rights of
congress. inasmuch as it intends to
interfere with interstate commerce
in the exclusion from the state Of
liquor for medicinal purposes and for
scientific research. He contends the
supreme court has held that tie sec
rotary Of state is vested with discre-
ton In such matters, although he
fails to quote the decision under
which such ruling had been handed
down.
Roach contends that at least q part
OF the proposed amendment is legis-
lHtive, as distinguishable from con-
sututional in subject matter, and a
not be placed on the ballot as q con.
stitutional amendment.
n. P. Faris Of Clinton, No, treasu-
rer Of the Prohibition National Com.
mittes, cited court decisions which
he said bear out his contention that
the secretary's refusal to put the act
on the ballot viii be without effect.
The supreme court, he confidently
believes. will order that the amend
ment be placed on the ballot.
Faris went from Clinton to Kansas
City to attend a meeting of Prohibi.
uonistS. and they have decided to In.
stitute mandamus proceedings In the
supreme court to force the placing Of
the amendment ON the ballot.

London.-Aerial activity, in which

more than so German. French and
British ~aeroplanes met with disaster
in fights in the air, forms the chief
new feature Of the war.
The Zeppelins were downed by Brit
ish antiaircraft gunners on the east

a fleet of IL airships had visited Lon
don and other points, dropping bombs.
One machine, with its entire crew,
was burned in midair. The other was

pelins were of a new pattern.

no change in the personnel Of the

next year, to January, 1919, by the
Democratic state committee.

schools was connected with the state
department under the first admins
tration Of Mr., Gass and filled the
