PRESIDENT WILSON COMPLETES MESSAGE TO CONGRESS. 1t ®& Devoted Almost Entirely to Do- mesetic Matters. b ‘Washington, 20. — President Wilson virtually completed his next annual message to congress today and planned to put the finishing touches on it tomorrow. It will be devoted almost entirely to domestic matters and will deal primarily with legislative ques tions recommended to congress previ- ously and.not finally settled.

Governor Arthur Yagr of Porto Rico was at the White House today and expects to see the president within a few days to urge that action on the Porto Rico bill be aken before the usual Christmas re- cess of congress, Governor Yagr sald the oill is passed giving citizenship to Porto Ricans agitation for the independence of the island will continue.

McChord of the Interstate Commerce Commission announced late today at the car shortage hearing in progress here,*that it was his pur- pose to put into the record a table of the net and gross earnings of all the railroads of the United States’ during the last fifteen years. His announcement followed a. state- ment by O. F. Clark, general superin- tendent of the Grand Trunk lines within the United States, advocating an increase in freight rates, the pro- ceeds to be used by the rallroads in the purchase of equipment and making other betterments. At this point Commissioner Chora_said: C “It has been stggested here by sev- eral other witnesses that the remedy for this trouble is to increase freight rates. I am going to have prepared from the annual reports of the car- riers a statement showing the net and ts of all carriers and alo dividends and additions to surplus funds and put Into this récord so that it may show just what has been Lavpening during the last in Me- was the first representa- any’ of the Canadian _roads whose lines cross into the United States to appear at the present hear- ings.

Atiantic City, N. J. Nov. 20.—Luls Cabrera and his colleagues on the Mexican-American joint commission will be formally told tomorrow by Secretary of the Interior Lane, chair- man of the American commission, on just what terms an agreemcnt provid- Ing for the withdrawal of the Ameri- can punitive expedition and the pro- tection of life and property along the international border may be reached. Fortified by the assurance of Presi- dent Wilson that he will back the American representatives in their ef- forts to reach a settlenfént of the questions at {ssue between Mexico and the United States, Secretary Lane returned here late today. He immediately went into confer- ence with Dr. J. R. Mott and Judge George Gray, the other American commissioners, informing them in de- tail of the conference .he had at Washington Saturday with the presi- dent. The formal meeting with the Mexicans will take place tomorrow. The atmosphere of uncertainty and even hopelessness which has been ap- parent for many weeks was_entirely lacking’ tonight. The Ameri¢ans ap- peared_ confident that the end of the conterence is in sight. Their propo- sitions have been reduced to writing and it Is understood will admit of lit- tle_debate. The Mexicans appeared not to take a pessimistic view of the situation, Mr. Cabrera again assuring newspa- permen that he was very hopeful of an amicable adjustment. There was no gvidence, however, that he was prepared to recede from his position, so long maintained. that agreement to the plan of the Americans was out of the question. Whether Ignacio Bonillas and Al- berto_J. Pani, the other members of the Mexican commission, were pre- pared to stand by Mr. Cabrera could not be determined. They have been disposed recently to agree. with the Americans on the plan suggested and it was tho opposition of Mr. Cabrera that prevented a settlement. There was some reason tonight to believe that Mr. Cabrera hal won them over to_an agreement to stand with him. The plan to be placed before the Mexicans will contain nothing that is new to them. It has been gone over repeatedly. in sessions of the joing commission and will not require a lons explanation.
