Mexico Optimistic
On OIL Situation
High Officials Do Not Antic-
ipate Serious Trouble in
Tampico Region-M o r e
American Companies Cease
Operations.

Mexico City, July 6.-(By The A. P.)-
High government officials here said to-
day they saw nothing in the situation in
the .Tampico oil region to cause uneasi-
ness over international relations. They
declared they did not anticipate serious
trouble in that district. The dispatch of
two United States war vessels to Tam
pico was treated conservatively by the
Mexico City newspapers.
Reports from the Tampico area tell
OF increasing closing down by American
oil companies but there have been no
disturbances.
Statements attributed to oil men here
describe the recent tax imposition by the
Mexican government as amounting to lis
per cent. the increase in the duty max
ing expectation of oil impossible except
at a loss. The assertion is made. by the
Oil men that the companies do not desire
a conflict with the government, but that
they must operate on a business basis.
One high government official today made
the charge that the Standard Oil Com
pany by its monopohzing tendencies
was the real cause of the chaotic situ-
alton.
The sending of General Manuel Pelaez
to Tampico as commander -in-chief OF
the Mexican government forces there was
described by Secretary of War Estrada
this morning as opportune. There is
every assurance" the war secretary said
that he will use his best influences to
alleviate the situation resulting from ths
shut down"

MAY TAKE TWO WEEKS
TO SELECT BASEBALL JURY

Chicago, July 6.-No jurors had been
chosen at the end of today's session in
the baseball trial although three were
accepted tentatively by both sides. In
dications were that the selection of the
twelve men to weigh the evidence would
go into extra innings some attorneys to-
day predicting that jury would not be
completed for two weeks.
The defense in examining veniremen
today, laid stress on the testimony of an
accomplice, asking each one if he realz-
ed that a person called an accomplice in
legal terms would be called traitor in
international dealings and a 'snitch' in
the language of the streets.
Some of the men were asked if they
sons bought and sold in this country
since 1851. While another question was
whether the prospective juror understood
that the men on Chicago team. for ex-
ample, were picked up all over the coun-
try by scouts Just as a Sultan's .harem

GOV. LAKE VETOES
THREE EDUCATIONAL BILLS

Hartford, Conn, July Ex-Governor
Lake today vetoed three educational bills
carrying total appropriations of $685.
600. In a statement giving his reasons
for vetoing the measures, the governor
said he believed that educational appro-
priations should be made in accordance
with the method Oh state tax. in order to
avoid the necessity of biennial legis-
lation. grants and to present deficiencies
in educational funds"
The bills vetoed were the 1919-1S21
average attendance grant, carrying ST.
145,000; the 1921-1923 average attend
ance grant, carrying S1,275. 900; and the
increased support of schools grant, with
an appropriation of S245,000.
In referring to the first bill, the gov
ernor said the 1919 legislative act was
imperative because it provided no ap-
preparation and he did not feel that the
state was morally Obligated. He said
he vetoed the 1921-1923 grant on the
grounds that a state tax based on the
grand list of the state should have been
provided to raise the sum called for in
the bill. Such provisions would assure
the required funds for a specific educa-
tlonai purpose, the governor said.
A bill carrying an appropria ton of 81
600 for the placing of milestones on the
state highways as war memorials was We
toed by the governor.

NO WOMEN ON THE
KABER MURDER JURY

Cleveland, o., July 6.-Twelve men
will decide whether Mrs. Eva Catherine
Kaber is guilty of first degree murder
in connection with the fatal stabbing OF
her husband Daniel F. Kaber, in their
Lakewood home two years ago, by al
legged hired assassins
Every woman tentatively seated on the
jury was dismissed peremptorily by Mrs.
Kaber's counsil thus making good the
declaration of Francis W. Poulson, that
no women would be permitted to sit in
Judgment against her. If he could help
it, because they are "heartless" in judg-
ing one of their own sex.
In his opening statement to the jury,
Attorney William ]. Corrigan for the de-
fense, asserted that many of the states
contentious were true, but that defense
testimony would show that Mrs. Kaber
had not intended to murder her hus-
band and that her actions were the re-
suit of mind diseased from childhood
and even before birth and worn down
by horrible things that will reflect no
credit on tho dead man.
Assistant county Prosecutor James T.
Cassidy outlining the states case, as
serted that testimony will show that
Mrs Kaber first attempted to kill her
husband by poisoning and failing in this
manner, hired assa ssins to kill him. The
motive, he asserted, was to obtain pos
session of Mr. Kaber's estate for her
self and daughter Marion McArdle, who
also is indicted for first degree murder.
Mr.. Cassidy detailed how Mrs. Kaber
was alleged to have made the acquaint-
ance of Salvatore Gala and Vittorie Pts
selli, the alleged assassins both under
indictment. but Pisselli still unappre-
hended. They according to Mr.. Cassidy,

to pay them from the proceeds of Mr..
Kaber's insurance policy, five hundred of
which finally found its way to Gala and
Pisselli, according to Mr. Cassidy.
| How Marion McArdle was alleged to
have played the piano two nights before
the murder to drown the noise of the as
sassins as they went through the house
to get the lay of things, also was de-
| tailed by Mr. Cassidy, who also asserted
that Mrs. Mary Brickel, mother of Mrs.
Kaber, was to be on the porch the next
night as a signal to the assassins that
everything was all right. Mrs Brickel
! was not on the porch at the appointed
time, however, according to Mr.. Cassidy
and the assassins left without attempt
| ing to execute the plot.
! Marion McArdle was alleged the next
day to have hunted up Gala and Pisselli
and told them that the deed must be
done that night before her mother. who
had gone, returned. That night Mr.. Ka-
Der was stabbed and died the next day
from the result of the wounds. A week
before the murder, Mr. Cassidy asserted
the evidence would show that Mrs Ka-
Der had taken silverware and linen to the
home of a Mrs. Matthews, in an effort
to make 1t appear that robbery was the
motive for the Staying of her husband

ing American products would have
beneficial effect on the export of finished
lumber"
With regard to the sugar schedule. the
report said the duay proposed would
yield one hundred and twenty million dol
lars q year without increasing the cost
of sugar to American consumers.
In his minority report, Representative
Frear said 1T must be remembered that
American valuation ad valorem tarlH
rates contained in this bill are much
higher in actual effect than where the
same rates are fixed in former tarlr
bills, due to lower foreign valuations
compared with values here"
The chemical dye schedule" said MI
Frear, "is fundamentally Objectionable
and is a high handed proposal to grant
practically exclusive dye rights to a rec
ognized monopoly"
Under the lumber schedule, he SAID
"a burden on new small American homes
will be imposed if Canada puts in force
lumber rates against us"
