Secretary Daniels Fails
! To Hold Lincoln Audience

Lincoln, Neb.. Oct. 23.-(Speciai

publican victory this year, Secretary

to what at the beginning was large

Charge Shipping
Board Working
For Oil Aqueduct
Mexican Paper Says U. S. Cor
poration Interested in Acqui.
sition Across Isthmus
Of Tehuantepec.

Mexico City, Oct. 24.-Charges
that the United States shipping
board is directly interested in an ap-
plication, now before the depart
ment OF petroleum, for an oil aque-
duct acquisition across the Isthmus
of Tehuantepec, and that its pur-
pose is to secure ready oil supply
for the American Pacific fleet, are
published today by the newspaper
Excelsior, in an article described as
a voice Of alarm calling on the
Mexican government to beware" !"
The newspaper asserts that the COM
pany making the application, while
ostensibly Mexican in its makeup,
has representatives of the shipping
board as members.
The concession of the first was
asked, it was asserted, by genuine
Mexican company, which made ap-
plication last year. Two other COM
panies besides the alleged shipping
board organization are stated to
h1,e filed applications, also.
United States naval strategy, de-
clares the article. demands that the
Pacific fleet secure transportation of
oil from the Gulf Of Mexico fields.
and the proposed isthmus aqueduct
offers a route many miles shorter
than the Panama canal route. Brit
ish oil monopolies. it is asserted,
have limited the United States ac-
tivities outside its own borders
chiefly to Mexico.
Attention of the petroleum de-
partment is called to a Mexican law
which prohibits concessions to any
save Mexicans.
The. proposed acqueduct would
run from Salina Cruz to Puerto.
Mexico, and would cost several mill
lion pesos.
Signor Pesqueira, Mexican conf
dental agent at Washington, as yet
has made no statement.

the burden of restoring a normal
adjustment OF prices and substantial
concessions should be obtained from
labor to make possible a lower cost
for trucking in New York"
The union demanded 7 per cent
increase per week and reduction of
one hour a week.

Wilson,Not.
Cox, Is Real
Candidate
Charles Hughes Declares it
Vain to Say Governor
Alone Running for
White House.
"Time to Part Company .
By Ths Associated Prers.

" New Haven, Conn., Oct. "a
Woodrow Wilson might as we'll be
the democratic candidate for presi-
dent again as Governor Cox. Charles
J.. Hughes declared, in an address
on the league of nations here.
How vain it is to say that Mr..
Cox is running for president, and not
Mr.. Wilson," he explained. adding:
The time has passed for efforts
to placate an autocratic executive.
II Mr.. Cox is going to part COM
pany with Mr.. Wilson, and is op-
posed to article 10, why should he
not frankly say that he favors its
eliminations"
The stands of Governor Cox and
President Wilson arc identical to
> commit the United States to the
league with article 10 and only
meaning reservations. Mr.. Hughes
asserted.
= Take Same Stand.
n Neither the president NOR the
governor have changed their atti-
tude, and all insinuations and dec
larations to the. contrary are mis-
statements?" he added.
AS Mr.. Wilson says" he contin-
ued, ito set forth that congress
alone can declare war would merely
ehe statement of our constitutional
method. It would be no denial Of
the obligation, but, as he said,
statement of the way in which we
should fulfill it. This would not af-
feet the obligation assumed by the
treaty, upon which Mr.. Wilson so
strenuously insisted. When this ma
ton binds itself by the treaty-mak-
iAk power to other nations, then it
is bound to use all its organs accord
ing to its own methods, for the pur-
pose of performing that obligation.
Attacks Article 10.
"If Article 10 were meaningless
form VI words, he would not object
to removing it. But he insists upon
il because it does impose an obliga-
fon. Having secured the imposi-
tion OF the obligation. he has no OBJ
lection to what he considers a
vacuous statement as to the way in
which we discharge our obligations"
we come now to the question OF
the attitude of Mr.. Cox and in be-
half OF his adherence of wobbling,
we may suppose that it will exhibit
a similar fixity of purpose.
I'VE, assume, in discussing the at.
titnde Of the candidate, We may
properly start with the platform Of
the democratic party. Unless the
platform intended gross
ly to deceive the people, 1t meant to
say that the party endorsed Presi-
dent Wilson in his firm stand against
any reservation which would impair
the effectiveness of article 10. Then
what of the candidate? Did he not
say explicitly that he stood upon the
democratic platform? Will he now
say that he repudiates the democratic
platform?
Cox Sure of Ground.
'7his question came up acutely at
once and to settle it Mr.. Cox made
the pilgrimage to the White House so
that there should be no mistake Of
the entire concord Of the two lead
ers. After his visit to the White
House, Mr.. Cox said: We are
