LAMONT ASKS CLEAR
PLEDGE By ME,

Mexico City, Oct 14.-An opti-
mistic view of the future of relations
between the United States and Mexico
was expressed today by Thomas W.
Lamont. here on a mission to nego-
tiate with President Obregon in re-
gard to Mexico's foreign debt, in an
address before the American Cham
Der 70 Commerce He declared that
whatever formal expression the Mex
lean Government takes 70 manifest
this national attitude toward Ameri-
cans is not a matter of so much I'M
portance to American business men.

are of character absolutely clear,
explicit and capable of only one in
depreciation by honorable men" and
added that as soon as such expression
was forthcoming harmonious rela-
tions would follow.

Pursuant to the advertisement ap-
pearing in the Times to hear COM
plants regarding, paving, and the
cause OF same some appeared before
the board last night and can
vased the cost of paving on GER
tain streets. The gentlemen asked
why they were charged their prorata

the property owners

GOVERNOR FLEES
FROM PUEBLO.

Mexico City. Oct 16.-Jose Marie
Sanchez. Governor of the State of
Pueblo, fled from Pueblo last night
on horseback, accompanied by thirty
of his followers. during a demOnstra-
tion against the State authorities,
who were charged with being respOn-
sible for the next tax law, which is
alleged to provide for excessive rates.
Although martial law has not been
formally proclaimed. Federal troops
under General Fortunate Maycotte
are guarding the city in the absence
of the civil authorities and the police
speedy reopening of stores and mar
kets, the closing down of which dur
ing the last three days has brought
about a serious food situation.
The events leading up to the flight
of Governor Sanchez were almost of a
riotous nature. The climax was reach
ed when a crowd escoFting General
Maycotte from the railroad station to
the main plaza of the city following
the return Of the General here from
Mexico City, was fired on by score
of city police stationed in the towers
|of the Cathedral. Several persons are
reported to have been injured by
bullets
General Maycotte withdrew imme-
diately after the shooting and ex-
horted calnness on the part Of the
people The crowd was somewhat
pacified when, short time after
ward it was announced that the po-
lice had surrendered, asserting that
they fled on the demonstrators only
when they thought the Cathedral was
to be stormed.
Later Gen. Maycotte attempted to
get in touch with Governor Sanchez
to discuss the situation, but. it, was
discover ed that Sanchez had mounted
his horse and started for Mexico City.
When this announcement was made
to the crowds before the Govern
ment Palace, there was joyful dem
onstration, during which hundreds of
church bells were set ringing. The
belief Prevailed that the Federal Of
ficials would adjust the matters at
issue between the State Government
and people which for some time have
resulted in discomfort. .
Reports received from villages in
ho win cfrin -
cate that sanguinary encounters took
place Saturday between villagers and
the municipal authorities The prin-
cipal disturbance was at sTehaucan,
where several persons were seriously

AMONG RECENT ARRIVALS

Among the recent arrivals in our

who is now buyer and head of the
Corset Department in this same store.
Mr.. Bishop comes to Wilson with
the reputation of being one of the
best informed dress goods buyers in
richmond. He was formerly en-
ployed in executive positions with
two of Richmond's largest depart
ment stores, Miller & Rhodes, and
The Cohen Company. AS a judge of

KEPT TALLY ON VEHICLE,


Officers E. E. Winstead was station
ed. at hte corner OF Green and Colds
boro streets On Sunday last, and OFF,
Ger Beland at the corner of Nash
and Pine streets in order to allow the
cars to pass these corners which are
ordinarily stop corners, to- prevent
their making a noise while shifting
gears during church services between
eleven and twelve o'clock. Mr.. Win
stead says that he counted 126 an
.tomobiles, two road carts. nine hi
cycles, four buggies and five dogs
during the hour he was stationed at
his corner
The noise made by the cars stop-
ping and starting has caused SO much
noise that the services at the
churches on these stop corners have
been greatly interrupted. The post
ing of the policemen was done to
eliminate the noise as much as pos
sible.

New York. Oct. 1.-THE body of a
man who had apparently died of ex-
posure and starvation WAS found yes
terday morning on the East 125th
Street pier by Patrolman Quinn of the
125 Street Station. He was identified
by articles in his clothing as John j.
Brown, age and address unlearned.
His sister, Mrs. c. f. Wagner of 1856

been notified of his death. This is the
first real case of death in the street
from starvation since the unemploy-

the Red Cross reported yesterday that
unemployment is responsible for half

MOTHER OF FORMER
BOY EMPEROR DIES.


Peking. Oct. 16.-Princess Chin,
mother OF the boy Emperor. Hsuan-
tung, who was ousted from the throne
on Feb IL. 1912. died on Oct. l.
and il is reported she committed
suicide by taking an overdose OF
opium The reason for her suicide is
attributed by reports from the I'M
perial court to quarrel between
Princess Chin and the Empress Dow
ager. Princess Chun.
1t is declared the Empress Dowager
desired that the boy Emperor should
marry daughter OF President Hsu
Shi-chang. but the Princess supported
the erstwhile monarch's wish to mar
~ another, and it is declared that the
quarrel ended with the suicide of the
Princess. Another report is that the
respect for the Dowager. and neg
lected the usual court ceremonies.
This caused the Dowager to upbraid
/, the young mans parents. whereupon
the mother swallowed opium and
, died soon afterward.
The Emperor is now living in re-
| tirement. and is reported to have
said he would not marry until he
had seen the world and made an at
tempt to find means to shake off
the influepce of the Empress Dow
lager.

THE DISARMAMENT CONFER
ENCE

The disarmament conference
which opens November the 18th will
be second in Importance only to the
Versailles conference which estab-
lished basis for settling the ques-
tions arising among the nations, in
OF der to prevent future wars. The
disarmament conference proposes to
go further, by taking away the guns
from the nations that they may not
nave weapons with which to fight.
As a preliminary to this most de-
lightful state Of affairs, If it can be
accomplished, it will be necessary to
satisfy the various nations in the
conference that their rights will be
protected and therefore much of
the wor.. that was accomplished or
supposed to have been accomplished
by the Versailles conference must Of
necessity be gone over.
Japan for instance will not agree
to disarm unless certain privileges
are granted her in the Pacific Her
slogan implied if not expressed,
aSld lOi TIE t1oidtlCS Will
as the shining light to guide them, is
the ambition and aim Of that coun-
try. She desires to do exactly the
same thing in the orient that we are
doing on this hemisphere, with the
exception that America insists that
Japan shall not close the door Of
China to trading privileges by the
rest of the world, as Japan desires
to do.
Again it is understood that China
expects to bring up the Shantung
matter at the disarmament confer
sence, being unwilling to make that
concession to Japan regardless of
the action Of the Versailles treaty.
France will assert that she cannot
hope to hold Germany in control if
she is obliged to disband her army
and reduce her ornaments.
One of the largest questions that
looms before the world today is the
matter of German finance. The mark
has fallen to less than three quarters
of cent when at par it is worth over
I % cents. The Germans have very
adroitly substituted paper money for
gold which was demanded by the al
lies in the payment of their repara-
ton bill. Expecting eventually rise
in the value of the mark when
Germany began to recover
from the war, millions of these were
sold the world over and purchased
by eager spectators. The result is
that while the allies have the Ger
man gold. Germany has accumulated
considerable Of that gold by selling
it's worthless paper marks. II the
credi. of Germany is seriously al
fected,- it stands to reason that her
repole will become dissatisfied, her
industries ruined, and the country
lapse into Communism. Already the
Monarchists, the Communists and
the Democrats are wrestling with
each other to secure the reins of gov
ernment. All of this France sees
anu wants guarantees as to the fu-
ture.
1t is not unlikely that the ques-
tion Of tariffs may be injected be-
fore the meeting adjourns.

DISPUTE OF RAILWAY

tic policies which might very proper
ly govern other lines OF business not
thus restricted.
Not Inclined to Try n Rate Cut
1T has been urged upon the rail
roads that a reduction in rates will
stimulate traffic and that increased
traffic will protect the carriers from
the loss incident to reduction III
rates. The railroad managements
cannot disguise from themselves that
this suggest ion is merely conjectural,
and that an adverse result OF the ex-
eriment would be disastrous not only
to the railroads but to the public.
whose supreme need is adequate
TRANSFORMATION. Consequently, the
railroad measurements cannot feel
justified in placing these instrumen-
talities, so essential to the public
welfare, at the hazard of such an ex-
pertinent based solely upon such
conjecture.
1T is evident. however. that exist
ing transportation charges bear in
many cases disproportionate rela-
tionship to the prices at which com
modities can be sold in the market
and that existing labor and other
costs of transportation thus imposed
upon industry and agriculture gener-
lily a burden greater than they should
bear This is especially true of ag-
riculture. The railroad manage
ments are feeling sensitive to and
sympathetic with this distressing sit
uation and desire to do everything to
assist in relieving it that is compat-
ible with their duty to furnish the
transportation which the public must
have
AT the moment railroads in many
cases are paying 40 cents an hour for
unskilled labor. when similar labor
is working alongside the railroads
and can easily be obtained by them at
20 cents an hour. The railroads OF
the country paid in 1920 total of
considerably over $1,3OO,OOO,OOO to
unskilIed labor alone However de-
sirable it may be to pay this or that
schedule of wages, it is obvious that
it cannot be paid out of railroad earn
ings unless the industries which use
the railroads are capable of meeting
such charges.
'The railroads, and through them
he people generally, are also hamper
oI in, ba; offor
schedule of working rules and condi-
tions now in force as a heritage from
the period of federal control and up
held by the Railroad Labor Board
These conditions are expensive. un-
economic and unnecessary from the
point OF view of railroad operation,
and extremely burdensOme upon the
public which pays the bill. This sched-
ule of wages and of working condi-
tons prevents the railroads from
dealing equitably with labor costs in
accordance with rapidly changing
conditions and the great variety of
local considerations which ought TO
control wages in different parts of the
country. The railroads are seeking
to have those rules and working con
ditions abrogated
The railroads will seek 4 reduc-
'tlon In wages, now proposed, by first
requesting the sanction OF the Rail-
road Labor Board. The railroads
VIII proceed with all possible dispatch
and as soon as the Railroad Labor
Board shall have given it's assent to
the reduction of wages the general

Indians in Minnesota. r. +.
For many years there have been
serious, questions relating to the
Minnesota Chippewas that have
been before the Indian Bureau
and before Congress, but general
understanding never has been
reached. There has been more or
less piecemeal Legislation and
action both by the Department of
the Interior and the Indian Bur
eau, but nothing has been effected
in fixing the status of the tribe or

Of Minnesota. .......... T.. T..

NEW AUTO TAGS
ONLY WHEN ALL
TAXES ARE PAID.

Motor vehicle taxes for 1921
must be paid on all cars owned in
the state this year before 1922
licenses will be issued for those
machines.
Mike Holm, secretary of state,
made the explanation of the law
last week in connection with an
announcement that 1922 tags will
be on sale January 3rd.
THE 1921 registration certificate
must accompany each application
for 1922 registration of every car
now owned in Minnesota" said
Secretary Holm. IF the 1921
certificate has been lost, a dupli-
cate may be obtained in this Office
upon payment of the 25 cent
charge fixed by law, and filing q
sworn affidavit of ownership, This
is an important thing to remember
as it may save delay"
Despite the delays due to lack
of funds on the part of some and
lack of inclination among others,
registrations of 1921, cars are
nearing the end. W.
