HAVANA, June 11.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-President Wilson in his address to the Mexican newspaper cd itors in Washington last Friday, ex- pressed sincere friendship for Mexico. His address, which is printed in the morning newspapers here today fol- lows in part:
 T have never received a group of men who were more welcome than you because it has been one of my dis trsses during my presidency that the Mexican people did not more thor oughly understand the attitude of the United States toward Mexico. I think I can assure you that that attitude is one of sincere friendship.
 No Rieht to Dictate
 The policy of my administration toward Mexico was in every point based upon the principle that the in- ternal settlement of the affairs of Mexico was none of our business; that we had no right to interfere with or dictate to Mexico in any particular with regard to her own affairs. When We sent troops into Mexico our sincere desire was nothing else than to assist you to get rid of man who was mak- ing the settlement of your affairs for the time being impossible. We had no desire to use our troops for any other purpose and l was in hopes that by assisting in that way and thereupOn immediately withdrawing l might give substantial trath of assurance that 1 had given your government through President Carranza.
 Pro- German Influences
 At the present time it distresses me to learn that certain influences, which | assume to be German in their origin, are trying to make a wrong impress sion throughout Mexico as to the Dur- pose of the United States and to give an absolutely untrue account of things that happened.
 We are the champions of those na- tions which have not had the military standing which would enabley them tc compete with the strongest nations in the world, and l look forward with pride to the time which I hope will come when we can give substantial ev- idence not only that we do not want anything out of this war but that we would not accept anything out of it; that it is absolutely a case of disinter- ested action. And if you will watch . the attitude of our people you will sec that nothing stirs them so deeply as the assurances that this war so far as

That Agreement Must Com.

Now that is the kind of agreement that will have to be the foundation of the future life of the nations of the world, gentlemen. The whole family of nations will have to guarantee to each nation that no nation shall vio- late its political independence or it's territorial integrity. That is the basis, the only conceivable basis-for the future peace of the world, and I must admit that 1 was anxious to have the states of the two continents of Amer ica show the way 10 the rest of the world as to how to make basis for peace.
 Peace can only come by trust. II you cap once get a situation of trust then you have got situation of per each nation that no nation shall via us owes it as a patriotic duty to his own country to plant the seeds of trust and confidence instead of the seels or suspicion and a variety of interest" l"

 American Agreement
 Some time ago I proposed a sort of pan-American agreement. I had per ceived that one of the difficulties of our Iust relationships with Latin Amerisa was this The famous Monroe doctrine was adopted without your consent and without the consent of any of the Central American or South American states. We said; We are going to be your big brother whether you want us to be or not

We said we are go- ing to be- Now that is all very well as far as protecting you from aggression from the other side of the water was concerned but there was nothing in it that protected you from aggression | from us and l have repeatedly seen an uneasy feeling on the part of represen- tatives of the states of Central and South America that our self appointed protection might be for our own bene- fit and our own interests and not for the interests of our neighbors. So i have said: Let us have a common guarantee that all of us will sign a declaration of political independence and territorial integrity. Let us agree | that if any of us, the United States included, violates the political inde- pendence or terrotirial integrity of any of the others, all the others will jump | on her

Weak, Thin People

Weak. thin people-men and women
are nearly always nervous wrecks,
thus conclusively proving that thin

nerve starvation. Feed your nerves
and all these symptoms due to nerve
starvation will disappear.
Eminent specialists state that the
best nerve food is an organic phos-
phate known among druggists as Bitrot
Phosphate, a five-grain tablet OF which
should be taken with each meal. Being
a genuine nerve builder and not a stim-
ulant or habit forming drug. Bitro-
Phosphate can be safely taken by the
weakest and most delicate sufferer. and
the results following its use are often
simply astonishing.

Miami Record Herald: The Old
Hannibal-St. Joe mine, now the
property OF the Bethlehem Zinc
Company one of the Oldest IN the
district, is one of the curiosities OF
the Oklahoma Kansas mining held.
There is no such ground elsewhere
in the entire field and visi, to 1t
Saturday made it plain to tile min
ing man OF The Record Herald why
it was a failure in the early days.
On the way down into the ground
it is difficult to thread ones way
on account of the number OF water
pipes that were formerly used to get
out the water, only one of which is
used at present and at the bottom
of the shaft a condition is found
that is simply laughable.
Great rooms have been mined out
almost extending around the shaft
as if the workmen had been afraid
to get far away for fear Of being
drowned and as the roof pitched
down they have worked until the
heading was not more than three
feet high when they gave up the
fight, knowing that ore of great
value lay beneath their feet, hui the
water was too strong and the mine
was abandoned
Nearly year ago the present
owners, the Bethlehem Zinc Com
pany. took over the Hannibal-St.
oe and began to operate the mill,
but as it was y years old and had
been standing idle for nearly twelve
years it failed to work satisfactorily
and was shut down, but now a fine
concentration plant is being CON
structed at point few rods to the
south and the old one Is being
junked.
After sinking a VIM near the
shaft, Ground Foreman Roberts be
gan driving DRIFT to the field shaft
about 200 feet to the south from the
will shaft and proceeded about 100
feet, carrying about three feet OF
roof rock, but the lower par, is be

would make ones eyes water.
As soon as the air drift IS com
pleted, which will be only few
days, Mr.. Roberts will sink IS feet

them, and with that object she in
serted advertisements asking any
"Mayflowers" now in London to
meet her at a hotel at a certain
hour.
The appointed hour came, and the
American woman waited. A NOV,
ing picture photographer, several
newspaper photographers and a
dozen reporters arrived and were
mistakenly and enthusiastically
greeted as Mayflowers. There was
an air of eager expectancy and sup
pressed excitement. Everybody
waited for as minutes, but not a
single "Mayflower" appeared. There
were signs of disappointment.
But there must be some May
flowers in London said the Amer

again at the door, but there was no
sound OF footsteps, and the meeting
adjourned.

Henry Davis Has Good Well in

The following from the Daily BuI-

lucky strike by one OF Ardmore 5
citizens, Henry Davis, in that field:

men are making about the shallow
well brought in late Friday on the
T. L. Byrd tract by Davis, Jeiters

hours hundreds have visited the
well, and all return with story ol
remarkable production.
The well, as reported in this col
umn Saturday, was drilled into the
sand at 374 feet, and penetrated the
sand less than Is inches when the
gas pressure made it impossible to
continue operations. Until lire
was run to tank the we'll sprayed
oil all over the derrick, but the flow

flowing production, according to i
test made by the owners, Is well over

barrels per day. 1t is estimated that
the well also has about three mil
lion ieet OF gas.
The owners OF the well are high

and is now pumping 50 barrels daily,
according to reports from the COM
pany's offices. The Kirk company's
big gasser in section 81 2s2w, two
miles directly south of the Wildcat
Jim properties, makes this part OF
the field look very promising, and
already there is much talk OF new
drilling operations to commence at
once, that will probably connect the
Wildcat i'm and Oklahoma-Fo
wells with the Graham field, opened
by the Kirk well. The Sparks Oil

would be drilled deeper in an at
tempt to reach oil. The gas will be
used as fuel in other tests which
will be started in that territory at
once.
