Guerra Elected May 7, 1917

Jose Gutierrez Guerra was elected
President of Bolivia May 7, 1917. The
government which has been overthrow
was formed March s, 1920. Bantista
Savedra was formerly Minister Of Pub
lie Instruction, having been appointed
to that Office August ID, 1909.
The question of a seaport for Bolivia
has been pressed to the front by
Bolivia recently, and Peru has charged
that Chile was working in conjunction
With the Bolivian authorities to obtain
such port at Peru's expense.
Peru claims the provinces of Tacna
and africa, which Chile took possession
of at the close of the war of 1898,
in which Peru and Bolivia were de-
feated by the Chileans, Bolivia losing
her entire seacoast as the result of
that struggle. The port of africa was
mentioned as the one Bolivia should
receive, and this port is in africa prov
ince, still claimed by Peru, as the peace
treaty provisions for a plebiscite in
the disputed provinces have never been
carried out
Peru's position has been that if Chile
was willing to help Bolivia to a sea-
port she should furnish that port in
territory which she took from Bolivia
as the result of the war. Chile, on the
other hand, claims that the right Of the
Tacna AFRICA dispute is on her side and
has denied any part in anti-Peruvian
movements in Bolivia in connection
with the seaport question.

Suit to Block
Ratification of
Suffrage Fails
Washington Court Dismisses
Plea to Enjoin Colby
From Issuing Proclama-
ton When 36th State Acts
Cites Dry Law Decision
Woman's Party Delegation
to Confer With Cox Friday
ON Situation in Tennessee

From The Tr4bune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE in
junction proceedings brought by
Charles F. Fairchilds, of New York,
president of the American Constitu-
tional League, seeking to enjoin Sec
rotary Of State Colby from signing the
ratification proclamation when the
thirty-sixth state has ratified the Fed
eral suffrage amendment, were dis
missed to-day by Justice Bailey in the
Supreme Court Of the District Of
Columbia.
Justice Bailey dismissed the bill on
the ground that there was nothing to
justify an injunction.
The court held that under the de-
cision Of the prohibition case state
legislatures derive their power to
ratify from the Constitution of the
United States and that courts will not
go behind their actions or uphold the
restrictions sought to be placed upon
them by the state constitutions or
laws.
Women Are Elated
Commenting on the dismissal of the
proceedings, Miss Alice Paul, chair
man of the Woman's Party, said:
"The refusal of the court this morn
ing to grant a restraining order pre-
venting the issuance of proclama-
ton ratifying the suffrage amendment
leaves no reasonable ground for doubt
that favorable action by the Tennessee
Legislature will definitely conclude the
struggle for ratification. Tennessee
possesses the clear opportunity of be-
ing the thirty-sixth state.
"To-day's decision should also re-
move any hesitancy from the minds of
the Tennessee legislators, since to the
opinions of the United States Attorney
General and the State Attorney Gen
eral it adds the opinion of court
that the power of the Legislature to
act will not be questioned"
Governor Cox, Of Ohio, the Demo-
cratic nominee for President, will re-
ceive a deputation or the Woman
Party, led by Miss Paul, at o'clock
Friday afternoon, at his home at Day
ton.
Will Go to Columbus
Miss Paul, accompanied by Miss Sue
White, Of Tennessee, will leave Wash
ington tomorrow afternoon for Co.
iumbus, where they will meet the Ohio
state committee, Dr. Gillette Hayden
and other officers of the party.
The delegation will include members
and officers of the Woman's Party from
Eastern and Middle Western states,
who will lay before Governor Cox the
exact situation Of ratification as re-
CARDS the Democratic states, with par
ticular emphasis on the situation in
Tennessee, where the Legislature will
meet August 9.
In addition to Tennessee, the Demo-
cratic legislatures which have not vet
acted on the amendment are those of
North Carolina, where special session
is called for August 10, and Florida
where no session has yet been sum
moned.
Miss Paul will remain in Ohio to
prepare for the suffrage demonstration
at Senator Harding's notification in
Marion on July %.

MEXICO CITY, July 1S.--The news
papers print to-day what purports to be

Respectful thanks for your greet
ings, which have been my only joy
since left your country. DR.. Krum
Heller (former adviser to President
Carranza) has had much success re-
earding relations with Mexico, and l
think he can do much for emigration
to Mexico,
"The Situation here is difficult, but I
think we shall soon overcome our OBJ
stacles and that the nation will be as
strong as ever. What is happening in
Europe to-day is not final. Great modifi-
cations are expected and we hope that
Mexico, guided by your strong hand,
will continue our friend"

LIMA, Peru, July 13.-President
Gutierrez Guerra OF Bolivia has been
overthrow by revolutionists headed
by Bautista Savedra, former Minister
of Public instruction. The President
and his Cabinet have been imprisoned.
All the Bolivian troops have recog-
nized the newly formed government,
with the exception Of the picked cav
airy regiment known as the 'Abarow
Contingent" reported to be advancing
from Guaqui toward La Paz.
A strict censorship is being main
tanned. The revolution apparently was
brief. Rapid-fire guns bombarded the
palace and the government offered VIZ
tually no resistance.
Rebels Seize Wires
A dispatch from Antofagasta, Chile,
saws the original date Of the revolt in
Bolivia was July 8, but that 1T
was delayed until Sunday night, when
the reyolutionists seized the telegraph
lines.
The dispatch adds that President
Guerra was made a prisoner IN his
home, where he was lying in bed i'll.
Savedra is said to have appointed
Jose Carrasco, former Bolivian Min
lister to Brazil, as Chancellor.
Newspapers here in commenting on
the news say the revolution is a
"crushing defeat of the pro-Chilean
policy pursued by the Bolivian govern
ment and vindicates the community of
interest existing between Peru and
Bolivia"
