WALLS
GOING!

Threatening TO collapse at
any moment, the south wall
of the five-story Savoy the
alter building, 9Th ana Broad
way, buIged out two feet this
afternoon and dropped sew
eral tons of bricks into the
yard of Mrs. Belle Gibson's
roOming house.
Occupants of rooms in the
frame house, which stands with
in Is feet of the wall, seized
what possessions they could
gather together and rushed wild-
ly into the streets.
Two women rushed out with
their babies. not taking time to
save any personal effects.
There Is momentary danger
that the entire shell Will fall.
The rooming house will be
crushed if the larger building
falls.
Police were making arrange
ments this afternoon to attempt
to save some of the possessions.
The Savoy, long vacant, burned
three summers ago, leaving brick
walls, filled with iron debris. The
building has been condemned,
but the owners, living in Phila-
delphia, have refused to tear 10
down.
Unless the high walls collapse
today, the city will be confront
ed by the necessity of dynamiting
the building.
The Universal Motor Co.'S
building abuts the Savoy on the
north. 1t would also probably be
crushed, should the larger struct-
ure collapse.

WILL COOPERATE

SAN ANTONIO, March IA. -
The full cooperation of Carran-
"a in hunting villa seemed as
sured today.
The American consulate an
nounced that 5000 Carranzistas
were marching toward the border
to aid the American troops in
their search for the bandit lead
er.
It is understood that Gen. OBJ
RECON is in commando of the con-
stitutionalists.
All points along the border re-
ported today that danger of Car
ranzista resistance had passed.
Gen. Pesquiera said that the adj
ministration agreement with Car
rama had allayed the anti-Ameri-
can sentiment In Mexico.
Cavalry predominates the
camp. Thousands of horses are
tethered in rows. The neighing
of the horses and the braying of
the army mules and donkeys,
carting munitions, the frequent
bugle calls and the clatter of
hoofs keep the camp in an APP
roar.
MEXICO CITY, March IA. =
The danger of a break between
Mexico and the United States is
passed.
Inspired articles in today's
newspapers said mo official
statement has been issued, but
Washington dispatches declared
that the u. s. has conceded the
justice of Carranza's demands in
accepting his informal note.
Gen. Aguilar will handle fur
Their American negotiations.
II is believed Carranza will
resign the provisional presidency,
APPOINTING Aguilar in his stead.
Then Carranza will run for pres

open.
AS a matter of fact they are
not to be recommended as food
even when closed, for one of the
peculiarities of safety pins is that
they are likely to open up at any
time, no matter how embarras-
sing or painful the process may
be for the swallower or wearer.
When a safety pin decides to
unclasp it either stabs someone
or lets something drop.
In the first case the result is
painful, in the second it may re-
suit in a total loss of personal
dignity.

gested areas
For the purpose of demonstrating the
value Of this experiment upon which

tongers will be interested in the mat
ter and each tonger will be asked TO give
day to help tong from the prescribed
area and transplant into the designated
area the greatest number of bushels he
can tong in one day, and give this work
free to the commission The tongerB
will be asked also 10 abstain from tong
ing from the transplanted beds until
the experiment shall have had time to
be worked out.
Tongers in every section where these
conditions exist will be asked 10 get to-
gether and discuss Il, and If they desire
action TO be taken in their section. to
communicate with the commission,
which will then be glad to take action
in that section early in September, and
