MEXICO CITY, September 18— Although Ambassador Morrow rarely goes horseback riding, he now has a big Mexican saddle of the finest leather twrimmed 1 silver and a “charro,” or Mexican horseman cos- tume of skintight pants, a bolero jacket covered with fancy embroidery design and a pair of big silver spurs. They were presented to the Ambas- sador by . Hal rancher, whose ranch in the state of Coahuila the Ambassador visited yes- terday. Despite urging, the Ambassa- dor refused to don the regalia or pose in it, much to the disappointment of a party of photographers, some of whom came from Texas, who hoped to take pictures of the Ambassador arrayed as a_ charro. A bear hunt also was arranged for Mr. Morrow, but he said he was not a bear hunter, so Col. Alexander J. Macnab, American military attache, was the Ambassador’s proxy on the hunting trip, while Mr. Morrow rested at_the ranch house. The Ambassador is turn to Mexico City xpected to re- morrow night, his return to Atlanta. He announced | . that he would request Gov. L. G. Hard- man to have the State offer a reward for the missing treasurer. REPORTED LOCATED. Clinton S. Carnes Declared Seen at North Carolina Mountain Resort. BREVARD, N.
