MEX|CANS RESENT
ATTACK ON HOOVER
Criticism of Tour Arouses
Wrath of Chamber of
Deputies.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MEXICO CITY, November 27.-The
wrath of the Chamber of Deputies was
aroused last night when Herman La
borde, a Labor member, quoting the
British press, launched a bitter attack
against Herbert Hoovers goodwill tour
and Ambassador Morrow'S work IN
Mexico Leaders of the chamber leaped
to the forefront and championed the
cause of the two Americans and warmly
defended both.
Senor Laborde, claiming that he
spoke in behalf of labor unions belong
ing to the "hands-of Nicaragua COM
mittee," said that the American Presi-
dent-elect'S trip was a new phase OF the
Anglo-American trade war. He asserted
that it was intended to destroy the
benefits that England derived from the
visit of the Prince of Wales to South
America.
A turmoil broke out. and Laborde,
unable to continue his speech, left the
floor
Deputy Nelchor Ortega said that Am
bassador Morrow had won the sym
pathy of the country for his splendid
work. He added: II hope Hoover visits
Mexico and all American executives do
likewise, because a real understanding
would be reached"
Deputy Marie Gomez, whose name
has been mentioned as possible Sec
retary of the treasury when Emilio
PorteS Gil becomes President, said that

PEACH WITH DWARF
SEED IS PRODUCED
New Variety Is Result OF Five
Years of Experimenting by
Illinois Farmer.
By the Associated Press.

FAIRFIELD, Ill, November T.-
James E. Markaham worked five years
to produce a peach that would be OF
normal size, but have a very small seed.
His efforts so discouraged him that six
months ago he decided to sell his farm.
There was no buyer, so he went back to
his experiment
One day he found tree full OF
peaches that in maturing had turned a
vivid red color He cut into some OF
the fruit and discovered the seeds were
no larger than those Of plums.
A sample of the new peach was sent
to a st. Louis. Mo-, nursery. with q
penciled note of explanation. The next
day an executive of the nursery was at
his farm and within few hours had
purchased the tree for $2,500. A steel
cage was built around the tree until its
buds could be stripped away. It cost
81 900 to build the cage, and Markham
mounted guard for his customer.
Five bushels of fruit were taken from
the tree The peaches were slightly
larger than the typical Illinois peach.
Nothing has been revealed concerning
the development of the Markham
peach" as it is to be known, except
that it is the result Of a long process
of serum treatment, polarization, and
grating. It ripens two weeks later than
the Hale variety.

LIMA, Peru, December THE death
toll that resulted from the flooding OF
a gallery in the Campana mine, neal
the Andean mining city of Morococha
was estimated by the ministry of public
works to be 27.
Thirteen men entombed in the Ale
jandria mine were rescued.
{ Capt. McGregor, an American engi-
neer, was among those listed as having
been drowned in the flooded mine. The
others were foreman and Is workers
The disaster occurred, an official
statement said, when water leaked
through from San Francisco Pond at
the mine into the mine shaft.
Twelve men and foreman were en-
tombed in the other mine, but were
rescued after many hours work. The
assistant secretary of public works went
to the scene. - ft
The mine is one of those owned by
the Cerro Pasco Copper Corporation.
All of the mines in the vicinity are cot-
nected by galleries. Most OF them are
deep and pumps are required to keep
them free of water. AS soon as the
disaster in the Campana{ mine was
known workers in each OF the other
shafts were ordered to the surface.
1t was believed that tunneling' be-
