Next Move for Settlement Must
Come from First Chief
LANSIhG'S NOTE IS FSIENDlY
Secretary Expresses Hope that Ex-
change OF Views viii Adjust
Differences Between Two Nations

Washington, July 7.-Inception of
the diplomatic conversations which it
is hoped will result in a settlement of
differences between the United States
and the de facto government of Mexi-
co awaited tonight suggestion from
Gen. Carranza as to how they should
proceed. State department officials
believe more can be accomplished
through informal conferences between
Eliseo Arredondo, Mexican ambassa-
dor designate, and Frank l.. Polk, act
ing secretary OF state, than by a more
formal interchange Of views. They
are willing to accede, however, to
some other plan should the de facto
government propose it.
Mr.. Arredondo transmitted to his
government today brief and friend
ly note handed to him by Secretary
Lansing expressing qualification over
the turn affairs between the two gov
ernments have taken and accepting
proposals for diplomatic settlement Of
points in dispute. The communica.
tion was approved by the cabinet be-
fore it was sent to Mexican embassy
The text follows:
"Sir: have the honor to acknow.
ledge the receipt of your communities
tion Of July 4, 1916, in which you tran
scribe a note addressed to me by the
secretary OF foreign relations OF your
government and TO request that you
viii transmit to him the following re-
ply:
Mr.. Secretary: | have the receipt
of your courteous note transmitted to
me by Senor Arredondo on the 4th inst
in which YOU refer to my notes of June
~ and June %. and to assure you Of
the sincere qualification of my govern
ment at the frank statement Of the diff
fculties which have unfortunately
arisen in our relations along the inter
national boundary and the unreseryed
expression of the desire of your gov
ernment to reach an adjustment OF
these difficulties on broad and amic-
able basis. The same spirit of friend.
ship and OF solicitude for the con
tinuance of cordial relations between
our two countries inspires my govern
ment, which equally desires an i'm
mediate solution of the matter of diff.
ferences which have long vexed both
| governments.
1T is especially pleasing to my
government that the de facto gov
ernment of Mexico is disposed to give
| quick as well as practical considera
tion in a spirit of concord to the rem
edes which may be applied to the ex
| isting conditions. Reciprocating the
same desire, the government of the
United States is prepared immediate
| ly to exchange views as to practi
cal plan to remove finally and pre-
vent a recurrence of the difficulties
which have been the source of the
Icontroyersy.
Accept. MIR. Secretary, the re
newed assurances of my highest con
sideration.

MARRIED BY MAIL
Contract Writes Newark N. j., Girl
and Guardsman at Front.

Newark, July 6.-Unable to be mar.
ried by proxy because OF legal entangle
mcnts, Miss Maud Ethel Sergent of 90
feck avenue and Louis Bansemer, a
private with the First Regiment on the
Mexican border, have resorted to the
mails. \ marriage contract was sign
ed today by Miss Sergent and i'm.
mediately mailed to Mr. Bansemer,
who is at Douglas Ariz.
That the couple will be legally man
and wife was asserted by Eugene II.
Meyer, counsel for Miss Sergent, Clerk
Frank +. Crissey of the marriage H.
cense bureau also thought the contract
would be binding. Miss Sergent sign.
ned the contract before a notary and
witnesses. Now the bridegroom will
sign it. The procedure is that of a
common law marriage provided by
law. The registration of the signed
contract acts in legal sense exactly
as does the recording Of the marriage
license.
Bansemer and Miss Sergent have
been friends for years. The couple
became engaged when the regiment
was in camp at Sea Girt preparing fol
service in Mexico. 1t was too late
TIM for them to be married by a minis
ter aud announcement was made thai
they would be married by proxy. Il
developed that the marriage under these
conditions would not be recognized b,
law, and the mail way was thel
brought to tn rescue.

SAVINGS BANK NOW
/ HAS ASSETSOvER
S3,OO0,OOO
Bennington County Savings Bank
Makes Great Gain
100000 IN SIX MONTHS
Cue to Steady Newspaper Advertising
and the Banks Strength and
Reliability. 8,

The Bennington County Savings
bank now has assets of over three mil
lion dolars-to be exact the total was
$3,O5O 900 on the first of July.
The gain during the past six months
in deposits was $2S6,OOO and in total
assets about 100000. This gain was
one of the largest half year gains in the
history of the bank and shows the
standing of the institution.
1t is also due to the campaign Of
newspaper advertising conducted by
the bank under the direction of Treas
urer Charles II. Dewey. About year
ago Mr. Dewey got interested in some
we'll written advertisements of another
bank and tried his hand at similar
work. In following up the matter he
has developed an aptitude in ad writ
ing and in adaptation from the writing
of others that has brought results.
The advertising alone did not do it,
but that in connection with the we'll
known strength, soundness and careful
management of the bank have given it
splendid growth.
The growth OF the bank during the
past fifteen years has been phenomen-
al. Fifteen years ago the total assets
of the bank were $S29,O00. In 1906
the amount had grown to $1,245,OO0
and ten years later, the three million
mark has been passed.
The management of the bank is in
the hands of board of trustees COM
posed of T. Il. Gibson, j. h. Judson.
John Robinson. Z. ID. Yelling, Harri-
son l. Norton, Fred S. Pratt and ID. +.
Gardner, who with Treasurer Charles
II. Dewey, look after the affairs OF the
institution and have brought it up
from small bank to one of the larg-
est and best managed in the state.
