CAN'T LIVE ON $4,000 A YEAR
Posthumous Son Of Col. J. j. Astor
Needs Bigger Allowance.

New York, May lit costs a lit
tie more than cents a minute to sup
port the 4-year-old posthumous heir Of
the late Colonel John Jacob Astor, a
victim OF the Titanic disaster, accord
ing to an accounting filed here today
with the surrogate by the childs
mother and guardian, Mrs. Madeline
Talmage Force Astor. Although $780,
600 year was allowed by the court
for the maintenance of the child, Mrs.
Astor declared it had been impossible
to supply all his wants with that
amount During the last year, she
said, his expenses were $27,593.
The accounting showed that mer-
chants received $S61.42 from Mrs. AS
tor in payment of goods purchased for
her sons personal use during the year
Attorneys and legal disbursements for
the boy amounted to $1,256,75. Al
though he was not very i'll during the
year, his physicians received $299.
Since the youthful heir lives with
his mother in the old Astor home on
Fifth avenue it has been deemed prop
er that he should bear one.third of the
up-keep of the establishment Taxes on
the place amounted to $3.50, and the
sons share was $11,S43.33.
The general upkeep of the home cost
$4,000, of which the boy was assessed
$9,66667.

pointed out that General Obrogon
had come to the border confident
that he could persuade Generals
Scott and Funston that the American
cXpeditonary forces should be with
drawn at once. Secretary Bakers
instructions to the American confer
ocs were regarded AS completely
blocking the hopes of the Mexican
minister of war
Speculation in El Paso Monday
might deals with the reply that Gen
cral Ohrogon will make To the pro
posnls Generals Funston and scott
will present at the next conference.
In some quarters 1t was declared
that the only course he could take
would be to accept the plan of the
United states government to coop

the villa bands still operating in
southern and western chihuahua and
Durango,
II was argued that the de facto
government could not afford Il break
with the United States, whose recog,
milton had given 1t stability. Any
open disagreement must result IN In
torvcntion, IL was asserted, and Il
was further declared that those per
sons responsible for such an occur

share in the rehabilitation of the
Mexican republic.
The American plan for coop era-
tion would not entail any particular
hardship on the de facto government
IL was pointed out, since the zone of
American occupation could be limit
ed to the extreme northern portion
of Mexico, and since withdrawal
could be reached at n period not very
far distant.
There was marked disposition to
attach some significance to the fact
that Secretary Bakers instructions
to Generals Scott and Funston Ie'

ernment's intention not to agree TO
an immediate withdrawal. This cid

lection to withdrawal after reason
able period.
Mexican officials said Monday they
were anxious to have the conference
expedited. They asserted that every
additional day of uncertainty re
garding the disposition of the Amer
lean columns increases the danger
of outbreaks south of the border.
Little credence was attached, how
ever. to reports that General Obre-
gon might decide TO end the confer
encc unless some agreement was
soon reached.
