HUGHES REFUSES
To TAKE PART IN
CALIFORNIA ROW
Will Not Recognize That
There Is Friction, Must
Settle Own Troubles
FOURTEEN THOUSAND
HEARD HIM LAST NIGHT
Speaks at Oakland This
Afternoon Then Goes to
Talk to the Angels
By Perry Arnold

Omitted Press staff correspondentl
San Francisco, Aug. l9.-The 1900
California republicans win have to set
tie their own differences in their own
way; presidential candidate Charles f.
Hughes does not propose to recognize
the existence of any friction.
The republican nominee SO indicated
his position today in conferences with
various state leaders. In tae mean
time, a truce was apparent between
the regulars and progrcssives, manifest
ing itself when photographer arrang-
ed to pose the nominee, National Com
mitteeman Crocker and Chester II.
Rowell, progressive leader together.
The republican candidate, it was
said by those with whom he talked,
feels that he should not mix in local
or state issues, for the reason that ne
does not desire to be involved in any
thing except clear cut issue with the
democrats.
$4,000 in Audience
Governor Hughes addressed one OF
the largest gatherings he has faced
during his entire "swing around the
circle" in the civic auditorium hero
it was estimated, packed the nuge
building to the doors.
The candidate placed the principal
emphasis during his speech On o de-
mand for greater efficiency in govern
ment, higher tone of American life
and leadership and foreign policy
that will command the respect of the
whole world.
He denounced the democratic tariff
and asserted that America was saved
from panic by the business created two
years ago by the European war, but
added that he didn Z believe, that
"even the European war can save the
democratic party"
Governor Hughes declared strongly
in favor of preparedness and said ne
did not believe there is any danger or
militarism in this country, adding:
"The danger is all the other way. y
In discussing preparedness, he said:
Los Angeles Next .tf-
'sThis mixing Of politics and busi-
ness is always bad in government, but
mixing politics and military prepara-
tion is the worst thing that can nap-
pen TO q nation"
Cruz expedition Governor Hughes de-
clared: "We interviewed, but we didn't
stay intervened. We had. an interven-
ton for an ignoble purpose and a re-
treat without accomplishing anything
except the destruction of the only gov
ernment Mexico had. y
"'We do not want any buster he
said in concluding "We do not want
any braggadocio. We are not aggres-
sive. But the name American eiti-
zen ought to be as proud title as
man can wear, and ought to have the
power of the United States government
behind it everywhere ON this earth"
Governor Hughes had comparative
ly quiet day today. He was to have
lunch at the Commercial club and to
make brief speech on business like
government, then to address eniefly
crowd of country newspapermen at the
Palace hotel. This afternoon he VIII
address huge meeting in Oakland and
will leave for Los Angeles tonight.

CARRANzA WILL STOP
FOREIGN GRABBERS
Those Acquiring Mining and
Other Concessions Must
Rely On Mexico

FL Paso, Texas, Aug. 19.-American
citizens and others acquiring property
in Mexico must not only renounce citi-
zenship and nationality rights in their
native country, but must also renounce
their right to complain or demand the
protection Of any other country, under
decree made by First Chief Carranza
to Consul Garvoa here today.
The decree covers mineral, forest
and water rights and fisheries. The mes.
sage to Garcia says that fundamental
laws prescribe that foreigners enjoy
equal rights and in consideration of this
the first chief deemed it only natural
that foreigners contract equal obliga-
tions toward Mexicans.

Reports from Canada
Sends Wheat Kiting

Chicago, Aug. 19-Bullish cables and
reports of continued damage to the
spring Canadian crops boosted wheat
values in the grain market today from
4 1-S cents to 7-S cents over night.
High marks for the season were estab-
lished in all months. September wheat
closed up over the high, opening up
3-S at $1.47 5-8; December up SO
at $1.51 5S and May up IA at
$1.55 IA.
Corn opened strong and higher and
made further gains on the strength in
wheat. September closed up l ga at
SO 5-S; December up SIS at IS 1-S and
May up 5-8 at'72 3-4.
Gains in the other grains influenced
an active oats market to further higher

EXPECT HURRICANE
TO BREAK HOT WAVE
Chicago Expects Mercury to
Touch 100, Today Was at
81 Yesterday

Chicago, Aug. 19.--The hurricane
which today was smashing its way
through Texas towns along the gulf
coast may be the means of bringing re.
lief to the sweltering middle west, ac-
cording to the weather bureau today.
"It is probable the hurricane may
get this far. >" it was said "But if it
does it will be web spent and all we
will get will be heavy cold rains"
1t is not expected to arrive before
Monday.
In the meantime continued high tenn
peratures were predicted for the plains
states. In Chicago, it was said, the
mercury would reach 9S and possibly
100 today. 1t was 81 here yesterday.
On the border it was much cooler. At
FL Paso, the temperature was onl SO.
Extra precautions were taken here to-
day against a spread of the infantile
paralysis disease during the warm
weather. 1t is planned to check the di-
sease with blood serum now in ex-
t nsive use in New York.

Militia Camps Wrecked.

San Antonio, Texas, Aug. 19.-All
communication save government wire
less has been lost south of here and
army officials early today were anxious
ly awaiting details of the damage done
by the gulf hurricane at Brownsville
and other army camps along the lower
Rio Grande The latest report from
General Parker commanding at Fort
Brown, stated that tents had been lev
eled, the camp flooded and the Illinois,
Iowa and Virginia militia forced to
move into public buildings. He added,
however, that the worst Of the storm APP
peared to have passed. No loss of life
was reported.
Corpus Christi, about 100 miles north
of Brownsville on the gulf, appears to
have borne the brunt of the hurricane.
The wind had attained 20 mile an
hour gait there early last night when
the telephone wires went out of commits
sion-the last means Of communication.
A 100 mile wind was forecast for mid
night. Small craft, docks and bathing
pavilions had been wrecked there and
the electric lighting system had been
put out of commission. Lloyd's pier,
900 foot structure, was almost com
pletely demolished in the first big seas.
No casualties were known.

Corpus Christi Is Storm Cen
ter But Work Of Tornado
Not Known
WIRES ALL DOWN IN
STORM SWEPT REGION
Report from Beeville Says
Cotton Crop Is Ruined,
One Steamer Lost

Galveston, Texas, Aug. 19.-The hur-
ricane that struck the south Texas coast
late yesterday has left ruin in its wake
from the mouth of the Rio Grande to
Aransas Pass, 100 miles north, according
to meager reports available today. All
land wires are down and little can be
learned by wireless.
Latest reports indicated the storm
is following the course OF the Rio
Grande, striking army camps as it ad-
vances. At Q O'Clock it was said to be
centered over Del Rio, so miles above
Eagle Pass.
Millions of dollars of property dam
age and destruction Of crops is believed
to have been done but the only known
loss of life so far is the drowning of
10 of the crew of the small steamer
Pilot Boy, which was wrecked on the
bar off Port Aransas late yesterday.
Several large steamers are believed
to have been in the path Of the storm,
however, and gravest fears are express
ed for the 1000 ton steamer Fort Nor
gan. She is 81 hours overdue from
Perto, Mexico. She carried crew of
90, but the number of her passengers is
not known. Unless she put into q Cub
an or Mexican port there is believed to
be little hope of her having weathered
the gale. '- ID.
Corpus Christi Hard Hit.
The fishing fleet from this port also
is unreported. The small craft are be-
lieved to have been on the Campeche
banks when struck by the storm. The
big steamship Nicaragua, which has
been ashore on Padre island for some
time, is reported to have broken up.
Reports from Corpus Christi indicate
that city sustained the greatest damage
of any of the gulf ports. Every cot
tage facing the gulf there is reported to
have been demolished, and a big 1000
foot pleasure pier wrecked. No loss Of
life is reported from there, the inhabi-
tants having taken refuge on the high
bluffs west of the city where they
would be safe from the highest seas.
The storm passed inland in the
Brownsville district with great rapidity.
levelling army tents and exposing per-
ishable munitions to the deluge Of rain.
Over 5000 militia and regulars are in
that region. While thousands of dollars
worth Of government supplies are be
lieved to have been destroyed, no casu'
alties have been reported. There are
no details as to which regiment suf-
fered the most, but it is known most of
the Illinois troops found refuge in
houses in Brownsville.
