YET MOTHER NOTE
President Wilson to Talk to
CarranZa Some More.
Protest To Be Based on Cutting
Off Oil Supply.

Washington, Dec. IL. = President
Wilson had before him today another
memorandum on the Mexican situa-
ton. 1t related to the interference
of the Carranza government in the
operation of American owned oil pro-
Chairman Payne of the shipping
board upon information furnished by
representatives of Mexican oil pro-
ducers.
Chairman Payne also sent a letter
to Secretary Lansing urging that the
state department take action toward
protecting the American owned oil
properties in Mexico. By the stoppage
of drilling of new oil wells under de-
crees of the Mexican government the
shipping board has become con-
cerned over the operation of the large
merchant marine as the bulk of the
has been obtained from the Mexica n
fields. Should this supply be cut off
it was pointed out operation of the
vessels necessarily would be curtailed
as only a small supply of oil is on
hand.
1t has developed that the state de-
partment during the last six months
dispatches three notices to the Mexi-
can government protesting against the
oil DEGREES. but no replies have been
received from President Carranza It
diers had halted drilling operations of
American companies on the ground
that permits to drill had not been OBJ
tanned. Under the Mexican govern
ment DEGREES foreign oil companies
must all agree in advance that the new
wells shall become the property of the
Mexican government.

Aldrich Disagrees With AzoIa
as to Calamity Dec. II.
Frenchman Forecast Severe
Blizzard and End of Planet.

There is nothing to indicate that the
most severe blizzard in history will
occur about December II, as predicted
by the French astrologist, Professor
Azola, according to Prof. John A.
Aldrich, astronomer at Washburn COL
lege.
Professor Aldrich also discredits, as
do other American astronomers, the
French scientists prediction that the
end of the world will follow the great
celestial disturbance which he has
forecasted.
According to an observation he
made Wednesday. the erientation of
the planets was little different than it
will be on December II. Professor
Aldrich says He ba ses his contention
that there will be no severe blizzard
as a result of the activities of the
planets on the accredited belief that
sun spots are produced from within.
rather than from external forces. as
held by the F'renchman.
In his observation, Professor Aid
rich found only one small group of
sun spots. ."
Sun spots and other planet disorders
might produce magnetic disturbances
and electrical storms, but would have
no effect on temperature, American
scientists believe.

No Definite Word From Allen
as to Future Policy.

State production of coal in Linn
county and the Pittsburg district, did
not stop today despite settlement of
the miners strike at Indianapolis,
Wednesday. Clyde Reed. secretary to
Governor Allen. declared.
Seventy-five cars of coal from the
strip-pits operated by volunteers will
be shipped today. setting a new record
in state production, Reed estimated
Fifty cars were expected to be mined
in the Pittsburg district, and the re-
naming twenty-five in Lynn county.
Emergency orders from small COM
munities had been practically all filled
today, Reed declared. This will per-
init the state to turn its attention to
relief for larger cities, including To-
peka, Ottawa, Lawrence. Kansas City
and others.
Legislature Still Called.
The special legislative session, it was
expected, will meet as scheduled.
More aid to the state in providing
relief for Kansas cities and communi-
ties in need of coal was pledged in a
letter to Clyde Reed today from o.
Gossard, a prominent citizen of Os-
wego. Gossard said that the citizens
of his community were operating sew
eral strip banks near the town. and
despite the expense, would endeavor
to care for the community's own
needs and turn some coal over to the
state in addition for delivery to needy
neighboring communities.
For the first time since the state
took over operation of the mines, rail-
roads have. seized state mined fuel

Chicago, Dec. 11-Relief from the
most serious coal shortage ever known
today was in sight. No immediate re-
taxation of the rigid fuel conservation
measures was in prospect but the re-
turn to the mines of the first of the
coal miners. ending forty day strike
and abatement, except in the east and
far northwest, of the severe weather
of the past past two days held forth
hope for a rapid return to normal con-
ditions. At some of the mines delays
ceptance yesterday at indianapolis,
Ind, of the proposal of President Will
son for settling the strike were in pros
pect. Recalcitrant workers were ex-
pected to be few, however, and the
more optimistic observers believed
would be yielding rs per cent Of nor
NAL output.
Thousands of empty coal cars today
were on sidings at the mines in readi-
ness to be rushed to the most needy
sections as soon as loads we're ayaila-
BILE. Relief for some points, however,
faced delay because of almost unprece-
dented snowfall. In the plains states,
railroad traffic was badly disrupted
by snow drifts and in the far north
west, where nearly 40 hours or unin-
teruped snowfall was recorded,
conditions were worse.
Weather Moderating.
Thruout the central area the sub
zero temperatures gave way to mllder
weather and lessened the sacrifice coal
saving entailed. Denver led the up
ward trend of the mercury with g. 62
degree range from IL below zero to
fifty above. At other places the mod

neapolis, Mimi. the thermometer rose
from 16 below to even zero; at Oma ha,
Neb. from 6 below to six above, and
at Chica go from minus to plus five,
with relief from the unreasonable
weather in all sections forecast for by
tomorrow night.
Except in the great Illinois fields.

The gigantic strike machinery of
the United Mine Workers was still
carried forward by its own impetus to-
day. despite the fact that it's power
was shut off by it's engineers late yes
terday. Indications were that the coal
strike-technicallye ended when miners
officials accepted President Wilson'S
settlement proposal in Indianapolis
yesterday-would actually continue
until formal notice of the decision had
been received.
Reports from various bituminous
fields today showed that in only scat

pressed, however, that work would

weeks-until such time as another re-

Destroyed by Fire.
Loss of s125,OOO Caused by
Goals Falling in Waste.

Aurora, No, Dec. 1.-THE plant of
the Menace Publishing company here,
publishers of The Menace, an anti
Catholic weekly newspaper, was de-
stroyed by fire early this morning.
The loss is estimated at S125.000. The
property was insured for $65, 900
The fire started in the basement and
is believed to have been caused by
live Goals falling from the furnace
door. The night watchman employed
at the plant fought the fire for half
hour before turning in an alarm. By
this time the flames had gained such
Roadway that the building could not
be saved.
Officers of the company said to-
day that no decision as to whether
the plant will be rebuilt will be
reached until after a meeting of the
board of directors is held. A call for
a meeting was issued today.
The Menace was established here
about eight years ago and has made
a bitter fight against the Catholic
church. An attempt to wreck the
plant was made about three years ago
when a bomb was set off in the build
