TO COUNT MEXICANs HERE.
Obregon Seeks Data to Protect Their
 Interests in United States.

Washington, Dec. 30.-Mexican Consulates throughout the United States have been instructed by the Obregon government to take cen- sus of all Mexican citizens residing in this country. It Is estimated at the Mexican Embassy that there are about half a million Mexicans in the United States. This agrees closely with the recent estimate of 496,000 made by the American Department of Labor, which does not take into &C., count those of Mexican blood who were born in the United States and are American citizens. These are es- timated as half million more.
 The census work has commenced in San Antonio and New Orleans In the former city the Consul has issued a call through the press and Mexican societies for alien Mexicans to register without delay. A similar call will emanate from the New Orleans and other consulates within few days.
 The purpose of the Mexican gov ernment in ordering the census is said to be two-fold, to ascertain their numbers and information regarding their occupation, so that their respec- tive consulates may keep in touch with them and aid them when in dis tress.
 More than ss,0o0,0 900 was spent by the Mexican government last year in the reparation of destitute laborers from Texas and other sections of the United States, 1t was stated at the Embassy.

JOE CANNON QUITS SMOKING
Ex-Speaker Again Gives Up Cigars
 and Switches to Plug Tobacco

Washington, Dec, 30.-Uncle Joe Cannon has quit smoking-again
 Societies for suppression of smok- ing among men and women may find little comfort, however, in this an- nouncement for Uncle Joe quits every now and then.
 Don't you think you ought to give up those cigars?" the doctor said the other day, meeting the former speak CT of the house.
 Sure, said Uncle Joe, and he did. But for how long not even he will predict.
 Mir. Cannon's cigars are not long and black, all cartoonists to the con trary notwithstanding. He uses the mildest the market affords.
 Uncle Joe stopped smoking?" said one of his friends, repeating the question today. Certainly. He often switches from cigars to plug tobacco; and at that, I guess, he smokes less than the average man of voting age"

S2s,00O HOLD-UP
 HAS PIANO PRELUDE
Road House Guests Listen to One Robbers Playing, Then Others
 Draw Pistols.

Detroit Dec. S0,-Nlne armed rob- bers. said to have invaded an outly- Ing roadhouse early yesterday morn ing. held up the diners, robbed n small safe and escaped with cash and jewelry said to total approximately $2S,000, are being sought today by county and city authorities, although no official report of the holdup and robbery has been made.
 Despite reports that between fifty and sixty guests were at the road house, authorities late yesterday were having difficulty in learning what took place.
 The story in which they place the greatest credence is that the nine men drove up to the roadhouse in three automobiles. Eight of the men are said 10 have entered the road house, the ninth remaining outside, cutting the telephone wires and tam pering with the ignition systems of all the automobiles in the yard.
 When the eight had seated them selves and ordered a meal, one of them walked over to a pianist and said: Let somebody play that can play"
 He then began playing and when interest of the guests had centered upon him. his companions flashed revolvers and ordered Hands up!"
 After robbing the guests and safe the bandits escaped in their three automobiles.

Burlington, Vt, Dec. 3o.-Argu- ments for a new trial of the suit of alienation of affections in which Mrs. Dorrit Stevens Woodhouse was award ed damages of $465,000 against her parents-in-law, MT. and Mrs. l.. E. Woodhouse, were made by counsel for the latter in the county court here today. The formal motion to set aside the verdict as excessive and unwarranted on the ground that it was the result of prejudice, passion and bias was up for hearing. Coun- sel for MT. and Mrs. Woodhouse, who were held by the jury responsible for the arrangement between their son, Douglas Woodhouse, and his young wife, directed their arguments entire- ly to the matter of a new trial. They made no suggestion that the amount of damages be cut down.

 McMahon has dlscussel the propos- al with Mayor Paonessa and Assist mt Corporation Counsel M, H, Camp informally. The mayor Is actively in- terested in the move and plans to ask an opinion from the corporation counsel as 10 the city's right to dis pose of this particular piece of pro- perty. It is his understanding that the property was given over to the city for school purposes and that a provision in the will by which 1t was granted to the city provides that its use for any other purpose would cause 1t to revert back to the estate.
 For the past two years the building has housed departments of the trade school, students at the Elihu Burritt Junior High school coming down to that building for instruction In ma- chine work and other crafts. Me Mahon claims continuance of the school is costing the city from $15 to s25 day for each pupil.

 Mayor Paonessa has had the city treasurer prepare a statement of the city's indebtedness and finds that New Britain can still issue bonds up to about $S50,000. Total bond issues reach s5,o49.0oO. Of these, $976, 900 are water bonds which, the mayor says. are not included in the five per cent of the grand list which the city may borrow. All sinking funds total s42s,432. making total net debt of $3,645,576. If there Is no change in the grand list the limit to which the city may go in issuing bonds will be approximately $4,5o0,00o, he says.

FOR TARIFF ON LUMBER
United States Opens Negotiations
 With Canada to Equalize Rates

Washington. Dec. 30.-Negotiation have been opened through proper channels between the United States and Canada, it was said at the White House, to consider whether any coun- tervailing tariff duties may be placed in this country on imports of Can adian lumber. At the same time, 1t was added, that President Harding has no proposition before him involv- ing immediate alterations of present tariffs on the product.
 Provisions of the Fordney Tari1 bill now in effeo, it was said at the tariff commission, provide that the United States may place tariff on certain types of lumber. which now come in free, when produced in a country which puts duty on similar products exported to it from the United States. Canada was said to have a 25 per cent duty in effect on imports of the American types of lumber in question, and thus to have raised the question as to whether Am erican schedules should legally be raised to an equal amount.
