To Save Friendship

MEXICO CITY, May 25.-Minister
of Foreign Affairs Aguilar tonight gave
tout statement for the announced
purpose of avoiding misrepresentation
of Meoico's action.
He said the President and Cabinet
at special meeting decided it impera-
tive to suspend relations because it
was considered an indispensable mea-
sure for the high ideals of two nations
in actual moments of an acute world
crisis.
The state of war in which Cuba is
involved has Obliged the government
of Cuba to dictate measures which in
many cases affect the Interests of Mex
leo.
For this reason the Mexican legation
will be called upon to make frequent
representations to the Cuban govern
ment which will only be useless and
would restrict the liberty of action OF
the two friendly nations.
in consequence our diplomatic eff
forts would not produce any practical
results andonly produce a tension in
our relations which would have to be
cleared up later to maintain the I'M
broken fraternal sentiments of soil
darity which have always bound us
! to the people of Cuba

MEXICO CITY, May 25.-Mexico has
severed diplomatic relations with Gu
ba it is learned officially today, after
the foreign office confirmed the re-
port.
The Mexican charge at Havana and
the Cuban minister has been recalled
These recalls and the suspensions for
an indefinite time of the sending OF
new representatives is explained Of
ficially as due to the fact that because
of the war Cuba has been obliged to
dictate messages that effect the in
terests of Mexico in many instances.
For this reason it is declared, in
making friendly representations, that
Mexico will be forced to make to the
Cuban government, such as would be
useless and would restrict the liberty
of the action of friendly nation which
is now in an afflicted situation.

LONDON. May 25.-Less than a
quarter of an hour after the British
armed merchant troop ship Media

of England Thursday morning, yirtu-
ally every man had gone over the
sides into the life boats. Edwin and
Clyde Bostley of North Troy, Yer
mont. leaped from the deck and were
drowned.
Except for this the losses are given
officially at fifty-siX American soldiers
and would have been confined to those
killed by the explosion Of the torpedo
The Bostley brothers were on guard
when the ship struck. There was d
sharp list and they evidently believed
she was turning over. A search was
made for them but they were not seen
after they jumped.

After the abortive rebellion at Eas-

Eighth Year In Baseball

swatter of the circuit, and finished the
season with a batting average of AL
Such a performance naturally at
tracted the attention of the big league
scouts, and Bonnie was drafted by the
New York Americans, then managed
by Hal Chase. For some reason or
other Chase decided that Kauff
wouldn't do, despite the fact that he
showed up REMARKABLY well, and sent
him to Bridgeport.
The next year Bonnie was recalled
by the Yanks, but Harry Wolverton,
who succeeded Chase at the Yankee
helm, also passed up Bonnie, and
shipped him to Rochester. He wasn't
given a fair trial at Rochester, but
was sent back to. the Connecticut
League, landing with Hartford, where
he was largely responsible for win
ming the pennant in 1913, Pittsburg
and other big league clubs dickered
for Kauff at the close of that season,
but the price was too high and Bonnie
was sent to the indianapolis club of
the American Association. Benny went
to Indianapolis, al right, but it was
to join the Federal League club then
in that city.
His subsequent history Is too well
known to need repetition. He is al
the present time one of the most pop
ular members of Jawn McGraw'
Giants and he is keeping up his good
work with the stick.
