B|G MUNITIONS
 ORDER SHIPPED.
 MEXICAN GOV'T I
Machine Guns and Millions
 of Rounds of Ammunition
 Are Ordered Thru Spain and Belgium By Carranza

WASHINGTON, Noy. 13-CBy the Associated Press.)-Large orders for arms and ammunition placed by Mex ico in Belgium and Spain, in prepara- tion for the possibility of American intervention, came to light today when the state department let it be- come known that the government had taken steps to prevent their shipment
 The charge d'affaires of the United States embassy in Brussels has pro- tested, under instructions, that ship ment of the munitions would be in violation of the international arms covenant. As spain is not party to the agreement which was designed to aid in keeping the peace of the world during the after-thewar transition period, no such direct action is prob. able at Madrid.
 The order in Belgium was placed with the FabIique Rationale d'Arms at Liege, probably under the direction of Candido Aguilar, NSexscan minister of foreign affairs, and President Car ranza's son-in-law, who went to Europe recently, after stopping here and placing a wreath on George Washington's tomb at Mount Vernon.
 The orders in Spain, which included rifles, millions of rounds of ammuni- tion and a large number of machine guns. were negotiated through the Mexican minister there, Eleseo Are dondo, former ambassador to the United States, and President Carran- za's nephew.
 The Spanish munitions, according to information in the hands of the government, began passing into Mex ico more than a year ago. when the European war still was going on and in violation of the inter-allied em- bargo Rifles and ammunition and some sample machine guns are re- ported to have passed Havana on their way to Mexico as .ate as June of this year
 For later shipments. cargo space had been reserved for October 19 on Holland-American steamers sailing out of Antwerp. and further space had been reserved for Tampico. Vera Cruz and Puerto. Mexico. on Decem- Der 3.
 The United States has been denying of arms and. ammunition into Mexico for many months for the reason that they generally tell into the hands of bandits and often were used aeainst Americans. Soon after the end of the war thu Mexican gov ernment asked for the resease or munitions bought in this country in 1917. but it was refused. Such information as has now come into the hands of the government show that Mexico already was turn ine to Furonean manufp ctrrArs for her sunrlv and has since placed enor- 1 nous orders.

Question of Time of Termi- nation of Washington Wage Agreement of 1918 Will Be
 the Chief Stumbling Block
Dr. Garfield Will
 Attend Conference
Fuel Administration May Ex- ercise Same Authority He
 Used When War Was Pro- gressing, at Present Session

WASHINGTON, Nov 13-Coal op- orators and miners from the nations bituminous fields will enter into nego- tiations here tomorrow for new wage agreement with the question of the time of the termination of the Washington wage agreement of 1918 apparently as the chief stumbling block.
 Both miners and operators on the eve of the conference at which the points in dispute in the recent strike are expected to be settled, were hope full. however, as to the ou:come, ana expressed the belief that the question of when the Washington agreement terminated will be disposed of through mutual agreement along with the demands of the miners for sixty per cent increase in pay and shorter hours
 Announcement by the executive committee of the operators of the cen tral competitive field. in a formal statement tonight, that the Washing ton agreement is one of the matters 'to he determined by the conference" was taken generally to mean that the operators do not intend to stand pat on their contention that present con- tracts remain in effect during ''the duration Of war 'or until March 21, 1920. in case a satisfactory settle ment is made with the miners on that and other points.
 The statement disclosed that the message from Thomas T. Brewster. president of the Coal Operators as sOciation. in the central ----lpetftive fields. inviting the miners to con- ference ''to negotiate a contract to be in force upon the terminatinr of tho contract now in effect" was an at tempt' to "entrap the miners into a tacit acknnwledgement" of the hind ing force of the contracts. and pointed ont that the text of the aereement was almost identical with that of the call for the Buffalo conference.
 It was said hv those in close touch with tho situation that the one~ators were going into the conference to- morrow in a conciliatorv sDirit. and would not insist on tie interpretation that the war is not over, although

BUT the popularity Of these bak-
ing machines is confined not alone
to the younger element. The
grownups are very frequent patrons,
and the manners Of the East Side
do not prescribe the eating of food
in the presence Of the whole world
or while one is en- route through
the streets. The throngs of home
going workers supply numerous
customers, hungry for delicacy
after day Of toll. In view Of the
high prices prevalent this year the
bigger potatoes are almost prohibit
tive for this section, and the pedler
meets the problem by cutting and
selling them in halves. The halved
sweet potatoes, with their revealed

In the summer time this machine
undergoes radical metamorphosis.
The drawers made for the sweet
potatoes are pulled out and slowed

The top is hinged in the middle, pro-

bottoms of the kettles and the floor
of the machine for a wood fire
which keeps the water in a con-
tinual boil. A bushel Of corn on

water and in a little while "hot
corn" is being sold and eaten on
the spot or en- promenade. The
corns have also become quite ex-
pensive to the East Slider this year,
and the pedler overcomes this con-
dition by cutting the longer ears
into two or three portions and sell
ing them at reduced price.

OF toasting sweet potatoes used
to blacken some Of the streets on
the lower East Side. But within
the East few years the invincible
advance Of science and machinery
has marked the passing of these
pock-markcd streets. Mechanical
genius has devised a square affair
of tin, fitted with drawers and hold
ing in its insdes 81 baking fire of
wood. 1t is further adorned with
a smokestack and sort Of basket
receptacle, serving as tender for
fuel. This contrivance, resembling
a mobile smithy or primitive
locomotive, is set solidly on four
small wheels and trundled through
the streets Of the East Side on it's
odorous mission of hawking baked
sweet potatoes.
The sweet potato baking machines
are presided over by pedlers who
are both engineer and cook Of this
percgrinating stove. Youngsters
flock about the perambulating oven,
shifting at the appetizing odors and
clutching their. precious pennies
until they are certain the next
potato offered for cent will be the
largest. Some Of the more enter
prising little fellows make a pre-
