 Rockefeller, 72, youngest brother of John D. Rockefeller, died today He was not on speaking terms with his brother, John D., as a result of quar- rel they had years ago.
 Frank Rockefeller was a brother of John D. Rockefeller and William 4. Rockefeller, and was for many years associated with them in the oil busi- ness but he was not as widely known as they.
 Born in Richford, N. r.. in 1S45, he was the youngest of the three ROcke- feller boys. and when his brothers or ganized the Standard Oil company he became identified with them, serving for time as one of the vice presidents. He acquired considerable wealth, but his relations with his brothers became strained and he severed business con- nections with them. In 1909 he turned his attention to stock raising, purchas ing 12000 acres at Belvidere, Kas., for a stock farm, which became recognized as a model throughout the southwest. Although he closely resembled his brothers, he was more sturdy and a little more squarely built than they and well equipped physically for the new work he had undertaken. Attired like a farm hand he was the active boss" of his ranch. and when fences Were to be repaired, ditches dug, or other heavy work to be done, he did his part Some of the purest bred cattle in the world were to be found on his Kansas farm and from there he also directed large range interests in Texas and Arizona Frank Rockefeller always manifested great aversion to being referred to as John D. Rockefeller's brother or the other Rockefeller

 AMSTERDAM, (via London) April 16.-The American guardship Scorpion has been interned at Constantinopl. by the Turkish government, accord ing to a news dispatch from tl1S Turkish capital.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-Complete restoration of diplomatic relations be- tween the United States and Mexico for the first time since the overthrow of the Madero regime by General Huerta, will occur on Wednesday, when President Wilson formally receives Ig- nacio Bonillas. the Mexican ambassa- dor.
 In a practical way the American and Mexican governments have been carry ing on diplomatic intercourse steadily and Amba ssador Fletcher at Mexico City presented his credentials to Gen eral Carranza two months ago, but Ambassador Bonillas has never pre- sented his credentials.
 When he is received by the president the new ambassador is expected to take occasion to refer to the relations between the two nations, now import ant because of the war with Germany, and the attitude of other Latin Amer ican nations.
 Dr. Santiago Aldunate- -Bascunan, new Chilean ambassador, will present his credentials tomorrow.

Resigns and Leaves City.
TINES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

INDIANAPOLIS IND. May 22-The
latest issue OF the Bulletin of the State
Board of Health contains the following
delightful little story:
Soon after the State Health authori-
ties ordered that all persons in the
state of Indiana. who handled food for
human consumption. must have a certi-
ficate of health. signed by a physician
who is acceptable to the health officers,
the food inspector of Gary. Ind. was
passing the blanks to such persons with
the proper instructions. In one of the
bakeries on North Broadway he met a
baker who looked as though he might
have a communicable disease. He hand
ed him a blank and told him to have ii
filled out and signed by the next morn
ing. at which time he would call for it.
The baker seemed sullen, but said moth
ing.
The next morning when the inspector
called at the bakery, the baker had re-
signed and gone. leaving no word as TO
his vhere-a- bouts.
Later in the week. when the inspec-
tor entered another bakery In the city.
he thought he recognized the Friend
Baker in the back room. but was not
sure. About that time. the baker saw
the inspector. and Immediately needed to
get something in the basement The
inspector followed him, but found the
basement so dark that he had to use
his fash light to see anything The
basement was well filled with bags of
-four and boxes of canned goods. After
flashing his light in all corners as he
went the inspector finally found the
baker hidden behind some bags of flour
shaking as though he had the palsey.
Wha-what do you want?' asked the
baker. Your health certificate answ
cred the inspector. The baker came out
Of hiding place and pleaded Ignorance
TO what he was supposed TO do. but
could give no reason for trying to hide.
The inspector finally granted him time
until the next morning to produce his
signed certificate. but made II clear TO
him that, if he dsd not have it then he
could not work at his trade in this
city.
Well. he called the next morning. but
there was no baker 10 be seen. The
proprietor came up and said, What in
the world have you done to my fore
man. You nearly scared him 10 death

Well he's gone" said the proprietor,
You had no more than gone yesterday,
when he came in and said he was

Dr. Preston Bradley iast evening
spoke TO a large and appreciaative au-
dience. at the eleventh annual Congre-
gational Mems club banquet at East
Chicag go. Dr. Bradley's address was
eloquent, patriotic and full Of beauti-
Iful thoughts and sincerity. Truly a
message. that every true and patriotic
citizen should appreciate He spoke of
Internationalism and its benefits. Au-
tracy and its inevitable downfall and
third. Democracy which must some day
rule the world. Those who heard Dr.
Bradley. spoke very highly OF his ad-
dress and many expressed the opinion
heard.
The Ladies Aid served a FIVE course
supper which was claimed by a guest
to be even better than served by a Chi
cago Hotel for an occasion of this kind.
The ladies are deserving of all praise
as surely they worked hard and faith
fully to help make the banquet a sue

element which claims it would drive
out OF business.
The issue was created when the ad-
ministration found it necessary to in
crease the revenue for the ensuing
year in order to take care Of liabilities
ed from $4,000 to $4,000 because the
city last year was only able to pay ST.
500 on back indebtedness after ii Rad
met all current expenses. AS the main
revenue is derived through the saloon
licenses which are fixed at $500 per
year. the council knows of no aiternna-
tive except by increased income from
that source. Two WAYS are open
permit the number of saloons to be in
creased. the more the merrier. or raise
the license rate.
II was in December, 1911 that the re-
form party issued an ordinance prohib-
iting issuance OF any new saloon licen-
ses There were over th.rty-four sa-
loon licenses then and these have beer
transferred but no new ones granted,
while the reform party repealed some
Repeating this ordinance would open
haven for the ousted saloons on the
Indiana side.
Mayor Paul kanradt does not favor
more licenses. IL is stated but the
council is said to lean that way strong
w. Increasing the saloon license to
$500 $500 or $1,000 Is looked upon as
political suicide by many Of the coun-
cilmen although there are a few sa
loon men who would be glad to see
that course adopted it would elm
mate many Of the competitors and give
them increased business in excess or
the additional license. 1t is sta ted.
At frst reading an ordinance vas
adopted by the council AT the last
meeting ncreasing the license 10 ped
dlers from $40 TO $50 and to- the CIR
Gus from s25 to s125. This Will be up
for final reading Thursday evening.
The council chamber Will be TANNED

pected Tie city is thoroughly arous-
ed over the situation and citizens aye
