"The Southern Pacific does not
want right-of-way rights over Mis-
souri, Pacific trackage; that was de-
cided definitely at the hearing in
Washington" says c. c. Richardso on,
manager OF the Chamber of Com
merce, and j. Il. Scott. one Of the di-
rectors, who returned from the In
terState Commerce Commission oral
hearing on the application of sew
eral railroads for extensions in the
Valley.
Mr.. Richardson said that $. +. at
torneys made il plain in their plead
ings that they wished TO run over
their own lines from HarIingen 10
Brownsville and that they would not
entertain the idea of coming into
the city on VI. p. rails. Though not
announced it is believed the pro-
posed route would be by way Of the
Los Fresnos tract. opening up much
new territory.
Mr.. Richardson said that there il
no way of telling just what the COM
mission will decide or when il will
make known its decision.
After the hearing in Washington
Mr.. Richardson and Mr.. Scott went
20 New York City for several days
While there Mr.. Richardson looked
over the park system with view 10
getting idsas which may be used in

J. r. Baughn of the Harlingen pre-

The room was filled with the par

the fistic exhibition threw the court

back and forth, but cooler heads pre-

The petition for the change failed

County Judge Oscar c. Danct and
Judge Logan voted against il. Sam
Bell, of the Brownsville precinct, did
not vote. This closes the issue

There were large delegations pres

British VIII Not
Send Another Note

LONDON, Eng, May 9.-Sir Aus
ten Chamberlain, eoreign secretary,
told the house of commons today the
British government had decided that
the present application of penalties
for the anti-foreign outrages at
Marking and the failure of the
Chinese nationaIists to observe the
conditions of the Hansow agreement
was inexpedient, however fully JUS
titled.
Sir Austen said he believed SIM
liar reasons had led other interested
governments 10 like conclusion.
Under those circumstances the Brit
ish government did not propose to
address any further notes to Eugene
Chen, the cantonese foreign min
lister Mt HankOw.
Great Britain, the foreign minister
said, has informed the other powers
of its decision but has reserved full
liberty Of action concerning the fu-
ture and particularly concerning
further outrages which might be per-
petuated upon British subjects and

Waves Beating Upon
Levees Threaten to
Unleash Torr ents
In Louisiana

NEW ORLEANS, La, May 9.-(P)
High winds which sent greedy
waves gnawing at the earthen en-
bankments protecting south central
louisiana from an angry Mississippi
today increased the hazard against
which an army Of men was fighting
along far flung levee front.
Hundreds Of men guarded the ram
parts and the slightest indication Of
weakness brought reinforcements on
the double quick TO lug sand bags
into position and rear protecting re-
ventments. "A sand boil developed in
the levees on the east side of the
river near Baton Rouge, but quick
work averted the danger Of a break.
While the high wins increased the
peril along the main Mississippi
levee front, danger of break there
was not believed imminent. Above
Baton Rouge, along Bayou Des
CLASSES, where the levees are en-
countering the crest OF the inland
lake, pushing down from breaches in
the embankments along the Missis-
sippi and Arkansas, a break was de-
clared inevitable.
The crest Of the flood had been
lost by observing of experts. APP
parently, they said. il was some
where in the surging sea which COW
ers northeastern Louisiana. The riv-
er at Baton Rouge remained station
airy. although rise of 4 of foot
was shown at Donaldsonville. be-
tween that point and New Orleans.
The work of widening the breach
at Poydras continued with the river
still remaining stationary at the
Crescent City.
Almost $4,000 refugees from north
eastern Louisiana were being cared
for at Monroe, with an estimated
5000 more from Louisiana adding TO
the flood population Of Nicksburg and
Natchez concentration camps.
