Federals As We'll
 As Cantu Claim ,,.s Many Recruits

Mexicali, Lower Cal., Aug. 13.- Rival claims of accessions from each others ranks were made today by representatives of the Mexican gov ernment and of the faction headed by Estaban Cantu, governor of Lower California now in revolt.
 Officials of the Cantu regime to- day declared that 500 Mexican fed eral soldiers at San Luis, Sonora, near the head of the gulf of Califor- mia, had declared their adherence to the Cantu cause. These officials said they had no information of re- volt against Cantu at Esenada head ed by Major Lerdo Gonzales, as re- ported in Los Angeles.
 Edirado Ruizz, representative of Provisional President De la Huerta at Los Angeles, announced he had received telegram from Gonzales declaring that officer had abandoned the Cantu cause and would aid the federal troops, supposed to be en route to Lower California by re- cruiting a special force.
 According to Senor Ruiz five ships bearing forces commanded by General Abelardo Rodiguez are near ing Lower California, with 5000 Yaquis, equipped with machine guns and field pieces.

Suffragists Also
 Hold Advantage
 In North Carolina

Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 13.-Ratifi- cation advocates temporarily held the advantage in tic North Caroli- na fight over the federal suffrage amendment as a result of develop ments today which included special message by Governor Bickett, urg- ing ratification, and favorable re- port on ratification resolutions by a committee of the upper house of the legislature. tf
 Although the victory of suffrage supporters in committee appeared overwhelming vote of 2 to 1 for favorable report being record ed-the action merely marks the be- ginning of an expected bitter contest.
 The suffrage leaders were given new hope by the governors plea, but the executives statement that he personally was against the federal amendment served to bolster up an- tagonistis of the suffrage move ment in the lower house.
 Action on the resolution in the senate probably will come Tuesday.

 STATES ROOSEVELT
Says Harding is Endeav0ring
 to Syndicate the Presi- dency

St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 13.-Declaring the republicans withtheir attitude and the leauge of nations "is as clear as mud" Franklin D. Roosevelt, the democratic vice presidential nominee, tonight expressed wonder as to how therepublicans with their attitude on this and "every other public ques- tion can possibly maintain business confidence"
 His address tonight aA the auditor ium followed-s aanSsdd2ess in Min nespolis, whe<e H sssssred Senator Harding was7"tlying to syndicate the presidencS," condition under which, he said tonight" a few of the old guard crowd would get in on the ground floor.
 MT. Roosevelt referred to Senator Harding's position on the suffrage question as indicating the repub- lican presidential candidate "appar- ently is, careful to wait until the last moment before committing himself to any definite policy" on an issue.
 Referring to divergent interpreta- tion 1.-two great republican dailies in New York placed on MT. Hardings attitude toward the league of nations MT. Roosevelt said: Apparently the republican offer is this-you can pay your money and take your choice; If that attitude is carried o,1t in re- gard to our foreign relations we shall still be at war for years hence. We need definite action, clear, policies. It is only through these that the business the country, whether it be that of the manufacturer the banker, the farmer or the laborer, cap remain stabilized"
 MT. Roosevelt left for Slouv Falls, s. D. where he speaks tomorrow.

P0NzI AND THREE OTHERS ARE JAILED IN EXCHANGE FAILURE Old Colony Foreign Exchange Company Officers
 Held LARCENY IN 5 COUNTS
 CHARGED TO PONZT Law Through State and Federal Agen- cies Closes in in Score of Ways
 to Trap Off

Boston, Aug. 13.-Four men who have accepted millions of dollars from New England investors in the last lew months, on promises of pay ment of fabulous interest were be- hind the bars tonight. Charles Pom zl, whose spectacular financial deal- ings have made his name known the country over, was surrendered today by the man who furnished $35.OOO bond for his release yesterday, af- ter his arrest by the federal authori- ties. Unable to find another bonds man, Ponzi was taken to the Midle- sex county jail at East Cambridge.
 Three officers of the Old Colony Foreign Exchange company were ar- rested, taken into the municipal court and held in $50,000 bonds each on technical charge of larceny of $50 from persons unknown. In de- fault of bonds they spent the night in the Charles Street jail. They are Charles M. Bfightwell, president and treasurer of the concern; Ray mond Meyers, office manager, and Fred Meyers, sales agent. All three pleaded not guilty.
 That the activities of this company might have rivalled in extent the dealings of Ponzi's securities ex- change company was intimated by Albert Harwitz, assistant district att torney of Suffolk county, when he told the court that the amunt in- volved in it's transaction probably would be shown to be hundreds of thouands of dollars. The three men will be given hearing August 24.
 Further criminal proceedings were taken against Ponzi today. In the municipal court blanket warrant was issued chhrgiag himwith larceny in B counts, totalling $24,O0O. Police inspectors were prepared to rear rest Ponzi if the federal authorities released him again on bail, but as he was taken to jail the municipal char ges against him were held in abey- ance.
 Bankruptcy proceedings against partners of Ponzi were brought in the federal court. The three petit tioners were holders of Ponzi's notes for total of $2,625. They asked that Ponzi and John s. Donde- TO of Medford, and Guigielmo Ber- tollotti, of Parma Italy, named n his partners in the securities ex- change company, be adjudged bank rupt.
 Joseph c. Allen, state bank com- missioner, said that he knew of no foundations except the Hanover Trust company, which was closed by the commissioner earlier in the week. Ponzi was director and shareholder in this bank, through which he checked, out millions qf dollars. The state seal was placed on all the safe deposit boxes in that institution used by Ponzi or by the officers or employees of the bank.

FEDERAL SUFFRAGE IS PASSED BY THE TENNESSEE SENATE With IT Votes Necessary, the
 Poll Shows 25
 to 4 HOUSE WILL ACT
 MONDAY OR TUESDAY Suffragists Acclaim Result As Mark ing the Last Stage in NatiOn-
 Wide Fight fir Amend- 

l Nashville, Tenn, Aug, 13-The Tennessee senate today by vote of 25 to 4 adopted the resolution pro viding for ratification of the nine teenth amendment. It was an easy victory for the suffrage forces but even the most optimistic were sur prised at the large majority. Seven teen votes were necessary but most polls listed from 20 to 22 as favor able and the high water wark was set at 24. The suffragists, certain of rati- fication by the senate have proceeded from the beginning of the legisla- tive session with the expectation that the real fight would be in the lower house and while their cam paign in that quarter had not re- faxed the vote had hardly been an- nounced before the workers were re- doubling efforts to secure favorab ble action by the representatives.
 The house adjourned today until Monday afternoon at o'clock with out reference to suffrage but it was stated later the committee to which the resolution was referred would meet Monday night to consider it. An hour before the senate convened the galleries and aisles were packed with spectators, among whom the active pro and anti suffrage workers predominated. Speaker Todd had lit tie difficulty in silencing the onlook- CTS when the body was called to or der. But when the seventeenth vote in favor of ratification was recorded the pentup enthusiasm of the suf- frage cohorts went beyond restraint land forced temporary suspension of the roll call.
 Last Stage in Fight
 They redoubled their cheers when the clerk shouted the total above the uproar and it was necessary for the speaker to call upon the sergeant-at- arms before the chamber could be quieted sufficiently for work to be resumed upon other matters.
 Miss Sue White, Tennessee state chairman of the National Woman's party. expressed the sentiments of the suffragists generally when she said the victory "brings us to the last lap in the long fight for woman's nfranchlsement."
 There were few members of the assembly remaining in Nashville to- night, most of them having gone to their homes for over the weekend.
 In reply to the charge of Senator Chandler, republican, and suffrage opponent, made during debate today that Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, pres ident of the National American wo- man suffrage association had advocat- ed inter-marriage between whites and negroes, Mrs. Catt tonight in for mai statement characterized it as Gan absolute fabrication."
 Senator Chandler said he had ~bas- ed his remark on published inter- view with Mrs. Catt in which she was quoted as having said suffrage knows no bias of race, color or sex."I
