MEXICO DISTRUSTS
 J. 5. INTENTIONS
 DECLARES MEXICAN
Preposterous as Belief Is, They Feel America Wants all Be- tween Rio Grande and Pa mama, Says Calero.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 12.-Secretary of War Newton D. Baker. Manuel Calero, former Mexican ambassador ro the United States, and Swight w. Nor row, banker of New York, were speak CTS tonight at the annual John Jay Dinner
 In discussing ''the relations between Mexico and the United States" MT. Calero said it was above human power to lead Mexicans into the belief that assistance given by your government to our warning factions has been in spired by a genuine sympathy to the people and high noble sentiment" This distrust, he declared, "prepos- trous as it is." has been fostered by uneasiness that the United States wants all the territory between the southern border of this country and the Panama canal
 He declared that we cannot concur | with the idea that the present Mexi- can anarchy has to & taken as the effort of the submerged S5 per cent who are struggling toward liberty.
 ''The six Or seven millions of our illiterate Indian population are op- pressed. Our system is unjust, in human.
 ''The last conyulsions of Mexico have been a beneficial strife to the educated class of the people who can not ignore any longer that the welfare of the country ought not to consist only in the welfare of the few" The place America will occupy in the worlds commerce after the war was pointed out by Mir Morrow who held an optimistic view of the quick rise of the present battle-scarred ma. tions in Europe.
 Material losses may be outweighed by gains in character" he declared, and when we speak of a Europe crushed and exhausted we must not forget that when the war is over char acter and capacity and skill in organi- zation still are the qualities by which the civilized peoples will judge the worth of the nations.
 What the future holds for this coun. try we cannot know but We can be lieve that if we build our house alright for its domestic and foreign problems then it will stand for it will be found ed upon a rock

GERMAN CONSUL IS BEING DRAWN INTO
 NET OF EVIDENCE
Star Witness duplicates Bopp in Many Dynamiting Plots on Pacific Coast, in Trial at San Francisco.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

i SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 12.-Louis J. Smith. star witness for the prose
 cution in the governments case
 against Franz Bopp. German consul general here, and five others on charges of conspiring to violate neu- trality, testified today that he had
 been promised $500 month and ex- penses, with a bonus of $500 for each explosion in connection with plans to stop war munitions shipments to Flu rope.
 Smith said he first met Baron Geo. von Brinckep. defendant consular attache, in the German house in San
 Francisco, May s, 1915. Smith said
 he informed von Brincken of ship
 ment of dynamite from California powder plant to Seattle from where it was to be shipped to Vladivostok The upshot of the conference was, Smith said, that won Brincken asked me if l would follow the shipment to Seattle"
 Later Smith testified. C. C. Crow ley. a detective and also one of the defendants, asked him if he would fol- low the shipment to Seattle and blow
 up the barge in the harbor. Smith said he agreed to do this. Won Brincken also asked me if
 would explode the dynamite barge, said Smith.
 "Afterward von Brincken and Crow ley promised me $500 a month and ex- penses with bonus of $500 for each explosion. Crowley gave me $250 and they sent me to Pinole, California, to get more information of dynamite shipments from German. could not find the German they mentioned.
 The Hercules Powder Company has a plant at Pinole.
 The barge understood to have been wrecked by Smith was blown up in Seattle harbor. Smith, convicted of theft by an army court martial when | he was an enlisted man some years ago, was restored to citizenship by President Wilson so that he could testify.
 Smith told of the meaning of code telegrams he sent from Tucson, Wash ington to Crowley concerning his al leged attempt to place bomb on the ! Japanese steamer Kaifuku Maru. He said he failed 10 get a bomb aboard because the Kaifuku Maru un- eXpectedly swung into the stream. She was carrying munitions to Russia
 ''I placed forty sticks of dynamite in suitcase. split one of them, in serted a fuse, and wrapped the con tents in square yard of asbestos. l thought the fuse would last about three days.
 Smith then related his failure to place the explosive aboard the steam CT at her dock Later that night he met Crowley and told him the bomb had been planted in the ships cargo. | The same week attempts to plant | bombs on outgoing vessels failed be cause Smith lost his nerve. it was | said. In one case, after showing | Crowley a suit case containing dyna- mite, Smith said he substituted stove wood. In another he threw the dyna- mite into ravine near the municipal dock at Tacoma.

 his first proclamation to the peo-

 An original copy of the printed manifesto. which bears the date of December 6, was brought here today from Chihuahua City by refugee.
 General Gonzales began his procla- nation by saying that the people have the right to know the line of action their governors intend to pursue while in office. He continued:
 Has High Ideals.
 The state of Chihuahua. in which the spark of revolution found so pro- pitlous a field, and which has always been so jealous a defender of the dig nity and cleaness of its institutions, giving a proverbial example as bel ligerent liberal in sustaining its sov- reignity and integrity and showing so great an energy in repulsing any tres pass on its rights-today this state must lament the disgrace of seeing its sacred soil desecrated by the proud Saxon troops. misfortune that the bandit Villa caused with his deeds at Columbus.
 As these deeds not only iniure the sovereignty of this state but also of the country, it is to the central gov ernment that belongs the solution of this conflict which threatens the na- tion itself, and the responsibilities that history exacts before the present and future generations. The patriotic at titude of the first chief in the face of this lamentable incident is well known to all Mexicans. His friends have nct

lessor Phelps was In rare form and
addressed the class on Culture and
Happiness" He quoted thu definition
OF happiness as given by the late
Timothy Dwight, former president of
Yale University, as The happiest
man is the man who thinks the most
interesting thoughts; and then went
on to give his own ideas on happiness.
refuting the generally held opinion
that the four years at college, which
loom up big to the young graduate.
are the four happiest years of a. man y
life "If thi were true" said Profess
sor Phelps, what a dismal outlook
would be the future The older a man
grows, the happier he becomes. be-
cause his thoughts become more inter-
estins. Music, art, nature. books,
these are the forms in which happi-
ness is to be found, and it is neces-
sary to go after ii in order to achieve
IT," And by art, he explained that he
meant the cheap photograph of a
great painting as contrasted with an
expensive painting that has not the
elements of greatness. THE charm
of culture is that 1t is individual and
appeals to each person in perhaps
different way" he continued.
Prof. Phelps Lauds the Susquehanna
Professor Phelps made a very happy
reference to the Susquehanna river
and appreciated the value of property
along the river by proclaiming it, in
his opinion, one of the most beautiful
streets in the world, by reason of the
presence of nature in all its wonderful
setting right here in Harrisburg. IF
we were a western town." said the
speaker, I'VE would be constantly
splitting our sides boasting about the
Susquehanna." He also took occasion
to lament the fact that this city could
not boast of an orchestra such as
Philadelphia has. His remarks were
full of humorous references and were
received with great enthusiasm.
