MOTHER NES THE STRIKERS WERE ANGRY * Labor Unions Sent Request to Denver for Woman Leader to Return— Military Officers Issue a_ Statement. Trinidad, Col., Jan. 5.—Acting under orders from Adjutant General John Chase a detail of the state militia met “Mother” Mary Jones on her arrival here from K1“Paso, ordered her to re- turn aboard the train and accompa- nied her as far as Walsenburg, the limit of the military zone. ‘‘Mother” Jones offered no remonstrance and no demonstration occurred. At the Trini dad station she purchased a ticket for Denver. The military authorities had learned that “Mother” Jones intended to stop at Trinidad to exhort the strikers and deeming her presence in the city un- desirable, General Chase ordered her deported. Should she return General Chase said she will be arrested by military ‘authorities. The presence of many more citizens than troopers at the station here upon the arrival of: “Mother” Jones led to the report that the citizens themselves had de- ported the labor agitator and that the soldiers’ presence was to prevent her from unnecessary indignities. The deportation of “Mother” Jones caused much anger on the part of the strikers and strike leaders here and there were many urgent requests “for- warded to Denver that she return to “Itinidad at once, ‘assuring her pro- tection from any number of troops or citizens, Many strike leaders, includ- ing John McLennon, president of the Colorado Federation of Labor, were present at the station when “Mother” Jones arrived, but the military officers would not permit her to speak to any of them. 3 After the deportation’ General Chase made public’the following statement: “‘Mother’ Jones was..met at the train in the morning by the military escort, acting under instructions not to permit her to remain in this dis- trict. The detail took charge of Mrs. J@hes.and her baggage, and she was accompanied out of the district un- , der guard after she had been given akfast. —“Phe-st with my instructions to presefve the peace in the district. The presence of ‘Mother’ Jones at this time cannot be tolerated. She had planned to go to the Ludlow tent colony of strikers to sto p the desertion of union miners» If she returns she will be placed in jail and held incommunicado.” IT’S THE SAME AS FETERITA “Schribar Corn,” Now Being Adver- tised in Southwest, No Better Than the Other Sorghums. Washington, Jan, 5.—A sorghum des; ignated as “Schribar Corn” has been extensively advertised in Oklahoma during the past summer and fall. Nu- merous inquiries have been addressed ' to the department regarding it. Ac- cording to those-promoting this crop it was produced by crossing two or three strains of sorghum secured in Southern Europe. and Northern India. ‘Samples of this sorghum on exhibit at the International. Dry Land -Con- gress, Tulsa, Ok., October, 1913, as well as head samples ‘submitted -to tae U. S. Department of Agriculture at different times, were indistinguish- able from Feterita, a sorghum secured by the U. 8S. Department of Agricul- tere from Khartum, Sudan, in Novem- ber,. 1906, and now distributed quite widely over Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas. Feterita is very different from any other known sorghum and there is no reason to believe that “Schribar . Gorn” differs from it in any way. Seed ef. Feterita can be purchased at rea- fomable rates and there is no need for farmers to pay a fancy price for — it wnder another name. 5 A Missing Aviator Drowned. ‘ New York, Jan. 5.—The torso of a body. believed by the police to ‘be that of Albert J.

WILSON AND LIND” CONFER PRESIDENT AND SPECIAL ENVOY MEET IN SECRET. Mexican Situation Discussed on Board the. Chester, but No Conclusions Made Public. Pass Christian, Miss., Jan. 3.—Presi- dent Wilson and John Lind, his. per- sonal representative in Mexico, sat in the cabin of the scout cruiser Chester, deeply absorbed in a discussion of the Mexican situation. It was their first meeting since last’ July, when the President conferred with Mr. Lind at. the White House Preparatory to the latter's departure for the City of Mexico with instruc- tions that created a diplomatic episode in American history. y, The conference lasted until after 8 o'clock at night when the President re- turned to Gulfport, where automobiles were ready to take him to Pass Chris- tian. Just as much secrecy as charac- terized the President's first meéting with Mr. Lind was*evident on this oc- casion. For two days a mysterious reticence has been ayparent at the presidential cattage, coicerning the present confer- ence, When dispatches from Vera Cruz announced that Mr. Lind would come to Pass Christian, there was a ‘noticeable manifestation of displeasure among the members of the President's been made public, “Prestdent Wilson had-hoped to slip quietly away aboard the revenue cutter Winona, “For a yachting trip,” and meet Mr. Lind at sea, Aes iba 4 The same! effort at secrecy with re- spect to the hester’s whereabouts was frustrated by wireless news of her location near Ship Island. ’ For nearly twenty-four hours Mr. Lind was off shore’ onthe cruiser Chester before meeting the President, and intead of permitting the personal envoy to come ashore, President Wil- son took a trip in a 20-foot lounch, mounted a companionway to the reve- nue cutter Winona and was trans- shipped again in mid-gulf to the Ches- ter. Information as to what the President intended to do was denied the news- paper correspondents here. A_ big squad of them, however, was on hand at the Oyster dock at 3 o'clock when President Wilson, accompanied by Dr. Cary T. Grayson and two secret serv- ice men, appeared. The revenue cutter 9 3 Winona came_as_close to the shore_as_}. possible and sent a launch for the President. The nation’s chief execu- tive got into the bobing craft and in fifteen minutes the President's flag was hoisted on the main mast of the cutter, which turned its prow seaward, followed by a tug chartered by the newspaper correspondents. MAD DOG KILLED IN CHURCH. A Davenport, !a., Priest Drove Animal Into Corner and Averted ' a Panic.

OVERRULED THE NEW RATE . ere i Decision Says’ That Franchise Voted in Kansas City, Kan., in Novem-_ ber, 1911, Has No Standing. Washington, Jan. 6.—The price of natural gas to consumers in Kansas City, Karf., hereafter will be 25 cents per 1,000 cubic feet. - The supreme court .has held that an act of the Kansas legislature, ef- fective May 22, 1911, fixing the rates | of’ all public utilities at the rates in force on. January 1, 1911, did not vio- late the obligation of the franchise of the: Wyandotte County Gas Com- Pany to furnish gas to Kansas City | and that a franchise which entitled the company to increase its rates from 25 to 27 cents November 19, 1911, was not a valid one. In January, 1911, the gas company, acting on the terms of its franchise, raised the rates from 25 cents to 27 cents a thousand cubic feet. The; company was enjoined by the city in the First division of the Wyandotte | holding that a city had no power to fix rates unless recommended by the public utilities commission. The Kan- sas utilities commission refused to order a raise in rates, and the gas | company appealed to the Kansas su- preme court, which affirmed the c# ders of Judge Fischer and ‘the utility board. An appeal was then taken to | the United States supreme court. \ Since last May the gas company has | beene charging consumers a 27-cent | rate. The receipts bear a printed | promise that if the 25-cent rate is up- | held, the extra 2 cents on each thou: sand feet purchased since May shall'| be refunded. The amount of this re- | fund is somewhere between. $42,000 | and $43,000. Officers of the company | told Mayor Green that a strict account | of all the overcharge had been kept j and that the money would be refund- | ed at once. i The decision ofthe supreme “court | | | | puts a new construction on a <ity’s power to make contracts.
