AMERICAN MERCHANTS
AT AN INTERNATIONAL.
CONFERENCE TOLD OF.
CONDITIONS TO meet
Omitted Press.)

CITY OF MEXICO, February 12-
"Inviting a Mexican merchant to ac-
aa,apany his order with cash is
equivalent to inviting him to make
lis purchases elsewhere" is de-
claration conveyed in paper read
today before the International Trade
Conference now in session in this
city. The paper quoted was prepared
by American banking and credit au-
thorities here. 1t urges extension of
long time credits to Mexican mer-
chants.
American exports to Mexico have
Increased enormously during the
world war;" the paper said, adding
that they could be increased far more
if long time is extended instead of de
nlanuing cash.
"Despite internal irregular and alb
normal conditions, business in Mex
leo continues as usual, with few
faliureS.
Speakers for Mexico, addressing the
conference warned that Europe con-
Germs are making strong bids for
Mexican business, and they are ex-
tending liberal credits. French and
British merchants are shipping goods
on terms of three to six months pay
ments, while Japanese offer from two
to three months.
All the way through the argument
was that if the United States is to
maintain the great lead it has Sc
cured in Mexican trade, American
merchants must meet terms and con-
ditions offered by ether nations.
Trade will go where it gets the best
treatment; and if American merchants
expect to retain the trade they have
[acquired in Mexico, they must meet
the terms of their competitors in
other lands.

HOPE TO AVERT
The THREATENED
RAILROAD STRIKE

WASHINGTON, February IL -
President Wilson will meet delega-

Friday morning.
The unions will be represented by
Bert M. Jewell, head of Labor De-
partment American Federation of
Labor; E. ]. Manion, president, Rail-
road Telegraphers; Timothy Shea,
president Firemen-Enginemen.
Before the conference Mr.. Wilson
will study the whole wage controversy
which was postponed last Summer
when he requested the men to give a
chance to show results the govern
ment's fight to loweaf living costs.
The union leaders are not optimistic
over the probability of gaining from
the President their complete demands
They believed however they would
prevent a railroad strike.
The President is expected to give
the workers his answer to their de-
mands for immediate increases.

sale.
A correspondent of the New York
Tribune in Ell Paso, communicating
with his paper, writes that Mexico
still continues in relations with
European countries that are disturb
ing, particularly with England, it is
incumbent upon the United States to
side with Mexico, and counsel just
ly, that results may accrue to the ad-
vantage of American commercial and
financial interests in assisting in de-
velopment of the great natural riches
of the country.
Francisco de Palma Camarilla,
state geologist of Vera Cruz, predicted
that there will be other earthquakes
and volcanic disturbances in that
state and the adjacent state of Pue-
bla, basing his predictions upon
geological phenomena, now under his
observation, and the continued ap-
pearance of great sun spots, on the
face of the master luminary of our
sidereal system, connection of which
with seismic disturbances on the
Earth he has traced in a study of
former periods of terranean convul-
sions, which have occurred always
contemporaneously with existence OF
remarkable sunspots. This is new
theory, which has not met with gen.
eral acceptance; but the scientist
named advancing it maintains stout.
ly that it is correct and accurate.
Advices from the earthquake strick-
en- districts are to the effect that in
some places there is expressed dis
satisfaction among commercial men
at the free distribution of supplies
among the suffering people by Red
Cross representatives, which they
aver interferes with their natural
trade. They seem to think that the
Red Cross should sell their supplies
to local merchants at low prices, and
let the latter turn them over at a
small profit. But the course of the
Red Cross meets with general ap-
proval, and few express any sympathy
with those dissatisfied at the way re-
, lief distribution is conducted.

care, maintenance and education
which may be done at cost of SIS

made by Mrs. Marsh; which motion

VICTIM OF AN
ACCIDENT AL
SHOOT|NCHAS
PASSED AWAY

Yesterday evening, at s o'clock,
Gerardo Pesqueira, the young gen.
tleman resident in Nogales, Sonora,
who was accidentally shot by q
sentry of the 25th Infantry, at tha
international line Tuesday evening,
died at st. Joseph's hospital.
The young man, who was but
twenty years of age, was well and
widely known, and he had many
warm friends on both sides of the
line. He was a brother of Mr..
Walterio Pesqueira of Nogales, So
nora; and Gen. Ignacio Pesqueira Of
the City of Mexico, chief of the Su-
preme Military Tribunal of Mexico, is
his half brother. He was a noble
scion of a distinguished family, and
his death has cast gloom over both
cities.
Yesterday evening the remains
were removed from st. Joseph's
Hospital to the Marsh Mortuary Es-
tablishment, where they are to be
prepared for burial; and one of the
native fraternal organizations turneA
out in body as an escort.
In this connection "The Oasis" has
been requested by young friend Of
the deceased gentleman's family to
express their sincere appreciation OF
the kindly consideration shown in
this unfortunate and deplorabla
tragedy by Colonel Carnahan, COM
mander Of the regiment whose soldier
was the unfortunate instrument of
the untimely removal of the young
man, and officers of his command.
Immediately upon learning of the un-
fortunate shooting Colonel Carnahan
ordered surgeons of the command to
attend the wounded man, with in
structions to put, forth every effort
to save the valuable life thus inn
perilled; and the doctors obeyed or
ders to the very limit, but without
avail. Colonel Carnahan and all his
associates regret very deeply the TN
fortunate disaster; and the family of
the victim appreciate thoroughly their
sympathetic sentiment.
The mother and sisters of the de-
ceased youthful gentleman, who had
been sojourning some time in Los
Angeles, have been notified, and they
are now en- route. They will arrive
this morning.
