PRESCOTT, April 6.-April showers

Reports compiled today by the
Journal Miner show entries both on
the credit and debit sides of the

are washed out roads, some damage

On the credit side there is a

sheep and cattle in the hills and on
the plains, and great gains in water
supplies for cities and towns. Some
communities ran short last summer
due to continued drouth. City Man

MEXICAN NOTE
ON LAND LAWS
GIVEN KELLOGG
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)


WASHINGTON, April 6.-Ambassa-
dor Tellez handed Secretary Kellogg
today the Mexican reply to the latest
American note of protest regarding
Mexico's petroleum and land laws, pre-
sumably concluding the protracted
diplomatic exchanges which have
passed between Washington and Mex
which were initiated by Secretary KEEL
logg in an attempt to safeguard Amer
lean interests in Mexico from retro
active provisions of the two laws.
Should Kellogg decide after he has
studied the contents of the new COM
munication that the correspondence
should be continued, it necessarily
would have to be confined to the ap-
plication of the statutes as decreed
by their PRONUNCIATION since the laws
themselves are no longer subjects
against which protest may be made.
Tt is not thought that Secretary Kel-
logg will desire to extend diplomatic
treatment to the point which will in
clude a discussion of that phase of
the controversy.
The correspondence which has been
in progress no Wtotals in excess of
SO, 900 words, it is estimated. Publi-
cation as whole is being planned by
retary Kellogg has had an opportu-
nifty to complete his review of the
note he received today.

WESTERNERS YET
CONTINUE FIGHT
ON new RATES
(By Dispatch a. p. yviroA

WASHINGTON, April 6.-Another
barrage Of protests from producers
and shippers of scores of commodi-
ties fell upon the Interstate COM
merce commission today in opposition
rates which western railroads claim
are necessary to the maintenance of
adequate transportation facilities.
In 26 briefs, intervening petitioners
attacked proposed rate boosts as dis
criminatory and unnecessary, declared
they already were bearing a fair
share of the entire transportation
cost and in some instances, attacked
present rates as unfair.
Coal, grain, petroleum, lumber,
poultry, sand and gravel, beverages,
wool, pulp, paper, brick and clay
products-these were some Of the
commodities represented in the ava
lanche of protesting documents.
The Chicago board of trade in a
brief, declared the western carriers
had proceeded upon the theory that
there are no defects in the present
rate structure.
The board endeavored to show that
grain rates to Chicago were higher
relatively than on grain generally
throughout the western district and
also higher than on all other freight.
The Southwestern Interstate Coal
Operators association claimed in
creases asked would discriminate
against them to the advantage of
competing shippers east of the Mis-
sissippi.

Chapman's body, claimed, as the

Michael Barry, the prison chaplain,
was borne to Mount ST. Benedict
few hours after his life had been
taken in ,Wethersfield prison for
murder.
There was no crowd of the curious

that a sister was among the few at
the burial but her identity was care
fully shielded and so far as the
records showed, the last privilege of
friend to claim a felon's body and
save it from the anatomist's knife, had
been assumed by Father Barry. Father
Barry signed a permit so that the
body might be placed in consecrated

He had been baptized in that faith

Father Barry had said that he would
