Would Have B=en Among Richest Girls in World but Land Was Confiscated, S Photos by American Press Association. These two girls have suffered great- ly in a financial way as a result of the revolt in Mexico. Misses Urnata (top) and TLaghet Terrazas,--grand- daughters of General Terrazas, would have inherited his estate had it not been confiscated by General Villa and the Constitutionalists and divided among the relatives of the soldiers who fell or who shall in battle. The estate was valued at $700,000,000, and Terrazas was one of the righest men in the world. It is said that he is now worth about $8,000,000. BIG SHIPMENT OF ARGENTINE MEAT Seventeen Hundred Tons Gon- signed to United" States. New York, Dec. 23.—What will be| the largest consignment ‘of meat ever shipped to this country will arrive here in a day or two from the Argen- tine Republic. This will be the beginning of the concerted effort that is to be made to invade the American market with practically unlimited supplies of dressed .beef, mutton and lamb by the largest independent Argentine meat concern. Every pound of the big incoming cargo already has been sold to butch- ers in this city, Boston and Philadel- phia. The shipment was intended as an experiment and if it proves satis- factory it is the intention of the Ar- gentine concern to establish a regu- lar meat shipping service between American ports and the Argentine, with at least two or three ships ar- riving here every month. Twenty consignees will receive the beef and mutton brought in on this shipment. - The cargo amounts to a little more than 1,700 tons, or 3,400, 000 pounds of fresh meat. It is con: signed to wholesale dealers mostly, although a good part of the cargo has been purchased for retail sale. TO BE USED AS CANCER CURE Mesothorium Proposed as Substitute for Radium. Philadelphia, Dec. 24.—A substilute for radium—mesothorium—which has the same curative action on cancer, will be manufactured here during 1914. Like radium, it is the discovery of Mme. Curie, but has never been pro- duced extensively. Such was the substance of i state- ment by Dr. Harlan S. Miner, analyt- ical chemist for a large manufactur- ing concern. Mesothorium is so. much quicker and easier to manufacture that it is estimated that the world’s supply of the cancer cure will be doubled within twelve moriths. The substance is derived from tho- rium and the company owns large mines collecting this mineral in North and South Carolina. The only radium deposits in the United States are in Colorado. SEALED 'UP IN UTAH MINE No ‘Word From Bandit Lopez Since Dec. 14, Bingham, Utah., Dec. 24.—If Ralph Lopez, slayer of six men, is still in the Utah-Apex mine, where he took refuge Nov. 27, he is securely sealed up and will be held a prisoner there until after Christmas. Not a sound has come from the mine since Dec. 14, when heavy. bulk- heads were erected in the tunnel mouths to prevent a dash for liberty. Although Sheriff Smith, now’in sole charge of the man hunt, remains cofi- fident ' that the desperado is either dead or alive in the mine, many be- lieve. he escaped shortly after smudges were lighted on Dec. 1 for the purpose of asphyxiating him.
