JOINT GUARD ON
BORDER WOULD
Be ORGANIZED
Suggestion Is Made by Mex
lean Secretary of Treas
ury, Supposed to Be Car
rama Mouthpiece.

Mexico City, Aug. 23.-An import
ant step toward the adoption of meas
ures tending to prevent clashes be-
tween Mexico and the United States
was taken last night when Luis Ca
brera, secretary of the treasury and
generally regarded as the mouthpiece
of the present administration stated
in press interview that the Mexican
and American government should sign
an agreement for reciprocal border
guard service.
Y. Bonillas, Mexican ambassador at
Washington, according to Senior Ca
brera would be "eminently fitted" for
conducting negotiations with this pur-
pose in view since he was a member
of the Mexican commission which met
United States representatives at At
lantic City in 1916 to discuss this plan
during the Pershing expedition into
Northern Mexico. Senior Cabrera was
himself chairman Of the Mexican COM
mission.
According to the secretary, the diff
ficulties which prevented the adoption
Of such an agreement at Atlantic City
were due to the fact that the Amer
lean delegation wanted the agreement
signed Immediately while the Mexican
delegation wanted the agreement
signed Immediately while the Mexican
commission held out for a withdrawal
of the Pershing expedition before
reaching an agreement. Senior Cabre-
IA pointed out that at present such
difficulty would not be met with
since the early withdrawal of the
eighth cavalry now pursuing bandits
in the state of Chihuahua was ex-
pected.
Comment in other official quarters
tended to point out that with reci-
procaI border service to eliminate
further clashes with the present gov
eminent bending every energy to pro-
tect foreign property and with con-
gress about to take up the oil cues
ton. the case of Mexico should be
solved quickly"

WOULD RETURN|MANCANESE ORE
|SHANTUNG ANDIPRODUCTION Is
SATISFY CHINA REPORTED Less
Shipments for the First
Three Months of the Year
Were Smaller Than Since
1917.

Washington, d. c., Aug 23--Re
ports sent by operators of manganese
mines to the United States Geological
Survey, Department of the, Interior,
covering the first three months of 1913
show that the shipments of manganese
ore during that quarter were much
smaller than during any other quar-
/ ter since 1917. The shipments OF
high grade ore were 23,937 tons.
against 75.465 tons during the last
quarter of 1918 and 305.S69 tons
during the entire year. The number
of shippers was only "a. against 247
during the year 1918. The shipments
of low-grade ore, containing 10 to
35 per cent manganese. were 1886
tons. against 320.455 tons during the
last quarter of 1918 and GIG, 163 tons
during the year.
Causes Of Decrease in Shipments.
The extraordinary decrease in ship
ments is due to the unwillingness of
the makers of ferromanganese to in
crease further their rather large stocks
of ore. which were purchased at high
prices, especially as there Is now only
small market for the alloy Early
in November. 1918, the stocks Of high
grade ore and ferromanganese were
equivalent to nearly nine months sup
ply, the price of so per cent ore ranged
from $50 to $67 ton. and the price of
so per cent ferromanganese was $3.50
a ton. In June, 1919, the prices offer
ed for so per cent ore by the few
furnaces that were making purchases
ranged from $25 to $35 a ton and the
price OF so per cent ferromanganese
ranged from $110 to s125 ton. The
market for ferromanganese since Jam
uary has been controlled by the
surplus supply of the alloy, which is
largely in the hands of steel makers.
who prefer to sell their stocks and
bear the loss rather than hold them
longer.
Practically all the ore shipped dur
ing the first quarter was material de-
livered on contracts made before No
vember IL, 1918. The Willingness OF
several large consumers of ore to con-
tinue to accept material offered under
old contracts has permitted a few for
tunate operators to carry on their
work, but the reputation of contracts
by several companies has been
source of hardship and great loss to
many operators in the United States
as well as to some in Cuba and Porto
Rico. The outlook of the domestic ore
industry is gloomy. and there is no
reason to change an earlier estimate
that the shipments for the year will
probably not exceed $4,000 TONS
New Custom Duties Proposed.
A bill recently introduced in Con-
gress provides for tariff on mangan-
csc ore of s5 cents per unit of man
ganese. or $3.50 per ton for so per
cent ore and a tariff on ferro-mangan-
csc and spiegeleisen of rs cents per
unit ofS manganese of SEQ per ton
for so per cent ferromanaganese The
minimum tariff is fixed at $50 a ton on
ferromanganese and at $50 a ton on
spiegeleisen A committee of mine
operators has been appointed by the
American Mining Congress TO prepare
evidence to be submitted to Congress
in connection with these proposed
tariffs

war INSURANCE
POLICIES TO BE
MORE LIBERAL.
Plans Are Being Made to
r { m { d y Objectionable
Features It Is Announced
Through Red Cross.

Payment of war risk insurance
benefits in lump sums instead of in
monthly installments has been recon-
mended to congress in order to make
government insurance more attractive
to the men who have been discharged
from the fighting forces of the coun-
try. Information to this effect was
received at headquarters of the PEN
sacola chapter American Red Cross
yesterday.
Out OF 4,53s.04s men who were in
the service during the war, approx
mately 100000 men have allowed
their Insurance premiums to lapse. ac-
cording to figures received by the Red
Cross from Washington. 1t is not sup
posed. however, that all OF these men
have failed to keep UP their pay
ments because OF dissatisfaction with
the war risk method of paying bene-
fits. A large percentage. 1t is be-
lieved. have failed to appreciate the
decidedly favorable rate offered by the
government. or lack information con-
corning the peace status OF the War
Risk Insurance Bureau.
The bureau is anxious to meet both
of these conditions. The payment OF
benefits in small monthly installnents
has been one OF the most criticized
features of the war risk policies. To
meet that criticism the lump sum pay
ment will be adopted, provided, the
necessary approval of congress can be
secured The restriction of benefici-
aries to the Immediate members OF the
families OF the injured Is another cause
for dissatisfactf and again this is
sue is being A1G1 recommendation
to congress ~ permit the naming of
beneficiaries outside family circles.
To counterfeit any misinformation
that may have gained currency among
the men discharged from the service,
the War Risk Insurance Bureau has
made plans to get IN touch with all
those who have allowed their insur-
ance to lapse. In their campaign the
officials of the bureau will explain to
these men the terms under. which they
may continue or renew their insur-
ance and the manner in which policies
can be converted and payment chang
ed to the soldiers best advantage.
To give these delinquents an oppor-
tunity to reinstate themselves, the
Secretary OF the Treasury has recent
ly rendered decision TO the effect
that soldiers may renew policies which
have lapsed over a period not exceed
ing Is months and in doing 50 will only
have to pay premiums for two OF the
lapsed months II policy holders so
elect, their policies may be converted
into old-line policies OF various kinds,
including what amounts to an old-age
pension. and the amounts OF insur-
ance carried during the war may be
increased or decreased. as the insured
desires.

When informed that the placards
were not up. DIR. Mobiles said he would
put them up himself, and this he did
late yesterday afternoon, although
one of the houses was found to have
been placarded Saturday morning by
Inspector Gingles.
1t is said that the delay in placard-
ing Quarantinable cases is due to
haziness as to who is city health Off

in the city endeavoring to improve

him, and that the directing of their

Among other Information the COM

Effect of the Shantung action would
be to restore to China all German

Gil today discussed the question of
sending troops to Silesia in case Ger
mans are willing to permit foreign
troops to enter the district for police
purposes before the peace treaty is
ratified.
The general impression in confer
ence circles is that the Germans will
consent to troops entering Silesia be-
cause of the large property interests
involved. The American delegation
advised the council IL would be un-
able to provide troops without instruc-
tions from Washington.
