TENSION LESS AT WASHINGTON Mexico Will Create Neutral Zone on Border. CONFERENCE ON SUBJECT President Discusses Situation With Chairmen of Foreign “Affairs Com- mittees of the Senate and House. Representative Sulzer, House Chair | man, Declares There Is No Cause for Intervention as Yet, Washington, April 19.—President Taft not only has no present intention | ol asking congress to send American troops into Mexico, but has high hopes that such action will not be necessary. | as the gist of the president's ion with several members of who called to ask about the | ation. It was stated at the White House that the government of Mexico is al- ready taking steps to define a restric. | tive policy on the border with respect to just such a situation as developed | at Agua Priet This pol has already been re-| duced to writing, according to private | information at the White House, and | is momentarily expected to be trans- | mitted officially to the president. The federal government of Mexico, it is understood, is extremely anxious to formulate a satisfactory policy govern- | ing border warfare in order that, so far as it is concerned, all possible ex- cuse for intervention by the army ol | the United States will be removed. | The oflicials here believe that even- tually the insurrectos can be brought to a similar understanding which will remove the constant jeopardy in which Americans are placed in such engagements as those near Douglas, Ariz, Rebels Desire Intervention. It is the general belief among mem- bers of congress that the insurrectos | deliberately planned the engagement | of Agua Prieta for no other reasom | than to embroil the United States and Dbring about intervention at an early| date. | That the situation is not now re- garded as acute is evidenced by the| fact that leaders of both the semats| and the house, with whom the presi-| dent conferred prior to the assem- bling of the cabinet, declared that no action is contemplated by congress at this time. The president had extend-! ed conferences with Senator Cullom of Tllinois and Representative Sulzer of New York, chairmen respectively of | the foreign affairs committees of the senate and Louse. Senator Cullom insisted that he could see no reason for intervention, while Mr. Sulzer announced that con- gress would not act hastily. Mr. Sul- zer is of the opinion that thus far there has been no overt act in Mexico suflicient to warrant intervention. He intimated, however, that a plan is being considered to relieve the dan- | ger to Americans near the bordcr,i This contemplates an agreement foi | a neutral zone from five to ten miles | wide along the boundary line. Freed His Mind In His Will. Among curious wills that of a cer- tain Dr. Dunlap, a Canadian, bas often been quoted. It probably contained some of the most maliciously express- ed bequests on record. To one broth- | er the doctor left his books so that he | might learn to read and acquire com- mon sense. To another brother he left | his big silver watch that the said brother might know the hour at which men ought to get up of a morning. To bis brother-in-law he left his best pipe “In gratitude that he married my sis- | ter Maggie, whom no man of taste | would ever have taken,” and to the eldest son of a friend he left a silver | tankard lest if he left it to the friend himself, who was a rabid teetotaler, | the latter might melt it down to cast | temperance medals. To one of his sis- | ters he left a silver drink cup “for rea- | sons best known to herself;” to anoth- | er the family Bible, so that she might | learn as much of its spirit as she al- | ready knew of its letter and become a better Christian, and to his eldest sis ter a five acre field to console her for | being marrled to a man that she had | to henpeck.—Chambers’ Journal. 1 Black Inhabitants of France. Lying so much off the beaten track, the village of Port Lesne, in the Jura department of Irance, is visited by | but few from the outside world, and consequently this tiny community of | men and women of color is but little | known. It is not a large village, for | its inhabitants number only about a hundred, but every one is either black or copper colored. It owes its origin to the fact that about a century ago the famous negro chief, Toussaint | L’Ouverture, was brought from Hait} and imprisoned in Fort de Joux. Many of his friends, all negroes, fol- lowed him and encamped near his prison on the bhank of the little river | Toue. Irom that encampment grew the village of Port Lesne, and when | Toussaint L'Ouverture died more than | 100 years ago his friends decided mi remain in I'rance. The passing of years and intermarriages have trans formed the settlement into a French village of colored folk, all of whom are enfranchised. Breaking It Gently.

RECIPROGITY VOTE DELAYED Two More Days Added to Length of Debate. | HILL SUPPORTS MEASURE Republican Member From Cannecticut Declares the Agreement With Cana- da in No Way Threatens the Policy of Protection—Says Attitude of Some Farmers Is Due to Wrong In- formation. Washington, April 19.—Canadian reciprocity again was the subject ot debate in the house, the third day of the discussion and originally planned to be the concluding day. It will not be, however, for when the house con- vened Chairman Underwood of the ways and means committee said so many appeals for more time had been made to him that the debate must’be| prolonged at least another day. “I do not believe that we can con- clude the debate before Thursday,”| saild Mr. Underwood. “Mr. McCall,”| he continued, “on the Republican side,! to whom I have allotted five hours of my time, has not yet spoken, nor have any of the Republican supporters of| the bill. “Their arguments alone will take up| the greater part of a day and Mr. Dalzell has not yet spoken. There are others on both sides who wish tel| speak, and 1 will close the debate. I see no chance of getting the bill to a/ vote before Thursday at the earliest.”| McCall to Answer Colleagues. Mr. McCall of Massachusetts was ready to take up the debate to answer some of the arguments made against| the bill by his party colleagues. Rep- resentatives Hinds, Fordney, Lem'oo(j and Crumpacker. i Representative E. J. Hill of Con- necticut, a Republican member of the| ways and means-committee, opened| the debate. Mr. Hill declared that the agreement in no way threatened the| policy of protection. He produced re-| cent reports of the tariff board to show | that prices in Canada were practically the same as in the United States on| all products on which the reciprocity| agreement reduces or wipes out the| tarift duty. | Mr. Hill declared that the a‘ttitudc‘ of some farming communities against | the reciprocity bill was based on wrong information and presented fig-| ures intended to show that the aver- age protection given the farmer was greater than that given the manufac-| turer.

A Range of Possibilities. “I have been told,” s«id the confident performer, “that I make my violin sound like the human volce.” “Yes,” replied the candid friend, “but | there are so many kinds of human voices.”—Washington Star.
