WILSON AT WELLINGTON
superintendent of Insurance Speaks
Before Mutual Companies.

Wellington, Kan, Nov. 22.-Carey
]. Wilson, state superintendent of in
surance, today declared that innumer-
able inquiries received in his office, in
dictate a general feeling that mutual
insurance companies have lodged
their share of responsibility. Wilson's
speech was made before the state as
ISOLATION of mutual insurance COM
panies. In his talk he said state in
surance was not a public relief from
existing conditions.
From innumerable inquiries ad-
dressed to the state insurance depart
ment, 1t appears that members of the
mutual insurance companies are I'M
willing to accept the responsibility
that mutually imposes" said Wilson.
'"They seem to conclude that inasmuch
as the company is a licensee of the
state that the state must assume the
responsibility of the company and
failing to do so, be held accountab BILE
for all short comings."
Concluding his speech, Wilson left
this warning and hope with the mu-
tual insurance men:
Il would not like to see all you have
accomplished set aside and the state
undertake to fill the gap by the adop-
ton of any kind of state insurance

ODDS ON HARVARD
Yale Is a Little Afraid of the
Crimson Eleven.
Navy Comedies No Advantage
to the Army Saturday.

New York, Nov. 22.--Confidence to-
day is the reigning emotion in the
eastern cities where the big football
teams are preparing for the seasons
most important jolts. AT New Haven,
where Tad Jones, Cupid Black and the
rest of the Yale team inspire the stu
dents, they are only slightly less GER
tain of victory than at Cambridge.
At Annapolis, where the Navy is
being whipped into shape for the an
nual bout with the Army, they refuse
to believe that Oliphant, Vidal and
several lesser brethren can do things
to the midshipmen's line. The Army,
however, being able to scatter back
over a trail of smashed football de-
Tense, shattered by this doughty pair,
is willing to mortgage the cid home
stead and bet it all.
Yale Not Optimistic.
If there is a waver at all in the wide
spread field of optimism it nolds forth
at New Haven. Yale hackers, realiz-
ing the effect of a Percy Haughton Of
Tense when shunted into Yale line,
grow slightly weak when asked for
even money bets and they're asking
odds Harvard students are inclined
to offer them that much of a chance.
And since Captain Black visited the
infirmary for a little session with the
doctor, the Blue stock has slumped
noticeably.
Annapolis coaches declare they have
a better balanced backfield than the
Army and this. combined with the
fact that Army ends have shown moth
ing remarkable in the way of defen-
sive play will give the Navy victory.

EXPECTED NO DANGER
American Miners Doubt Death of For
eigners in ParraI.

Nogales, Ariz., Nov, 22.-Four
American refugees from Parral. who
arrived here last night, said today they
were skeptical of reports that all for
eigners remaining there had been kill
ed after Villa and his bandits occupied
the town. They said they left as a
matter of expediency and not thru
anticipation of any real danger.
The four men said there were about
sixty Americans and other foreigners
in Parral when they left their mine,
two miles outside Parral, November 2,
believing Villa would come there after
taking Santa Rosalia. Howard Gray,
and American. they said, volunteered
to remain in charge of the mines.

bility of evidence. Miss Buell. de-
clared she testified before the coro-
ner's inquest her first impression of
the scream fixed it as the cry of a
pet cat. She said, on direct examina-
ton. that the cat gave no evidence of
having made such a noise. Miss Ida

The noise heard twenty or twenty
five minutes before II O'clock" was
described by Miss Ida Buell., school
teacher, as an "agonizing cry, possibly
from some one being held by the

and then a material down turn.
Word that hartman Fitzgerald of the

scored sharp gains all around and then
