VOL. LXI—NO. 199 REQUESTS 1.5, TROOPS Note Received From the Mexican Consul at Presidio, Texas _Writes That As the Mexican Troops are in Pursuit of i the Bandits, Withdrawal of the American Troops Would “Avoid Difficulties”—American Airplane Brings Mes- sage That the Eighth Cavalry Is Still Following the Trail. _Washington, Aug. 20.—Mexican Am- baasador Bonillas has been urged by the Mexican consul at Presidio, Tex- to obtain from the war - depart- ment an order for withdrawal of the American forces now in Mexico. The consul’s telegram made public at the embassy tonight, said that since Mex- ican federal troops were in pursuit of the bandits which held two American aviators for ransom, withdrawal of the American ‘troops would “avoid dif- ficulties.” AMERICANS AT CAMP IN THE MOUNTAINS Marfa, Texas, Aug. 20.—The Amer- ican punitive expedition that raced i to Mexico in search of Jesus Renteria’ band of bandits who held Lieutenants Peterson and Davis for ransom, went to camp in the mountains tonight after a trying thirty-six hours of campaign- ing through rugged country. ince the troops crossed the Rio Grande early Monday morning they have ben riding constantly during day- light hours in pursuit of the bandits. The only reported contact with the bandits resulted in the killing of one of three Mexicans who fired on an American airplane yesterday. Accord- ing to the aviators’ report upon, re- turning from the field, the fight lasted twenty minutes. The aviators were unharmed. Reports from the fi€ld were meagre. The broken country South of the bor- der compelled the cavalry troops to scatter and follow such trails as they can pick up. The country below the Big Bend border is too rough for air- planes to effect a landing without great danger. A cryst.c message, “Still following trail,” brought to the oborder by air- plane today, was the only definite word from the expedition. No officers commanding troops in the field have yiet returned to the field bases on the Tiver. e e HISTORY OF THE SALVATION DOUGHNUT AND FLAPJACKS New York. Aug. 20.—The Salvation Army doughnut, which achieved such popularily With the Agaerican ex- peditionary force, was introduced for the reason that it was too difficuit to bake American pies under war con- ditions, according to Colonel William S. Barker, for 26 years a Salvation Army worker, who has just returned from France. On reaching the western front, Col- onel Barker dniéd with Brigadier Gen- eral George B. Duncan and noting the latter’s dissatisfaction with pie as it is made by French cooks, buoyed his spirits with the promise that when| Salvation Army lassies arrived at the front, he would have placed before him a pie such as would make any mother proud of her culinary art blush with shame. The first pie, however, had to await the arrival of the first stove, and af- ter Adjutant Margaret Sheldon, origi- nator of the battie-scarred doughnut, had introduced it pending arrival of cooking apparatus, General Duncan had some from her first “batch.” Flapjacks, which ran doughtnuts a close second in France, were credited by olenel Barker to the genius of Fdérerick Anderson of Seattle. Wash. These were cooked on & griddle de- vised by spreading a sheet of iron over a steel wheelbarrow in which a fire had been lighted. Of the 600 men and women serving aboard with the Salvation Army, Col- onel Barker said only 176 were Am- ericans, the rest being enlisted in France or England. Despite the con- stant danger these welfare workers ran, only one death-due to influenza —occurred, with one woman injured by a shell splinter and one boy gassed. PLAN TO PLACE RAILROADS UPON A STABLE BASIS Washington, Aug. 20—Railway man- agement as represented by the associ- ation of railway executives today pre- sented to congress its pian for “placing the, railroad business of the country upoén a stable basis.” Appearing before the house inter- state commerce committee, Thoma. Dewitt Cuyler, chairman of the associ- ation, recommended on behalf of his organization return of the railroads to private operation wth legislative guar- ! antees of adequate revenues to the roads and efficient service to the pub- lic. Both Mr. Cuyler and Alfred P. ‘Thom, counsel of the association, an- other witness, attacked the Plumb plan for tripartite control of the roads un- der government ownership as an im- practicable system which the Ameri- can people, when fully informed, would surely reject. Mr. Thom devoted his testimony largely to an attack on the Plumb plan, asserting that its provisions for retire- ment of private capital would deprive the railroads of one third of the lines’ book value. Government regulation of railroads was blamed by Mr. Thom for the pres- ent condition of the lines. AUSTRIAN DELEGATES MUST SUBMIT TREATY TO ASSEMBLY Paris, Aug. 20.—(By The A. P.)— The Austrian delegation told the su- 4 preme council today that it would be necéssary for them to take the com- pleted text of the treaty to Vienna and to submit it to the assembly for approval before the delegates can sign this. This suggestion brought expressions’of surprise from members of the council as it had been thought the Austrian delegation had full pow- er. The council is urging the Austrians to make some arrangement to sign the treaty without taking it to Vienna. 5 The signing of the treaty, as a re- sult of thls unexpected development, it was said. may be postponed until well into September. The completed treaty text will not be given the Aus- trians, it is generally understood, for al least two weeks and if the Aus- trians insist upon taking it to Vienna before signature that trip probably will add ten days to the delay. STRIKING STREET CAR MEN AT HAMMOND, IND, DISORDERLY Hammond, Ind., Aug. 20—City and county authorities here tonight call- ed upon Governor Goodrich at Indian- apelis for troops to aid in coping with the situation here due to the srike of the emplqyeg of the Standard Steel Car company who last Friday storm- ed the streets in the vieinity of the car eompany in &efiance of efforts of police and deputy sheriffs to maintain order Ten Companies of State Troops.

Publication of a story to the effect that Mr. Carnegie had given away all of his estate with the exception of about $50,000,000 brought the state- ment that the estate was much large It also was stated that a will of ap- proximately 4,500 words, drawn up by Mr. Carnegie himself and which was generally believed to be his last will, had been superceded by a briefer doc- ument of 2,000 words drawn by Elihu Root. The_decision of.Mr. Carnegie to re- voke the original 1 on which he had expended much time and thought, and which bequethed a large part of his estate to his daughter, Margaret, was £aid to have resulted from her mar- riage to Ensign Roswell Miller several months ago. Mr. Carnegie settled a large dot on his daughter at the time of her wedding. The Home Trust Company of New Jersey, which was organized. by Mr. Carnegie in 1901 for the purpose of administering a fund set aside by Mr. Carnegie for nearly: 500 persons to whose individual wegire he had con- tributed, will act as executor of the will. = LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT FOR KOREA, JAPAN ANNOUNCES Washington, Aug. 20—Local self government for Korea and reforms looking toward home rule, are an- nounced in an imperial rescript lssued yesterday in Tokio and received here today at the Japanese embassy. The military government has been displaced and succeeded by a civil one. The military gendarmerie, so much under criticism of late, is to be replac- ed by a civillan police force entirely under civilian control. A system of village and town municipal govern- ment’ based on popular suffrage alse is to be undertaken, Possibly most important of all. from the Korean point of view, the re- script by the emperor of Japan pro- vides that Koreans shall have the same privileges and legal rights as Japanese. NO LARGE DISCOUNTS ON NEW WINTER WHEAT CROP Washington, Aug. 20.—The depart- ment of agriculture announced today that the new winter wheat crop was not being graded down so as to bring large discounts from the government guarantee price for Number one hard winter, as had been charged in con- gress.

The independent representatives in- sisted that they K were meeting and furnishing livelv competition at both ends of the industry—in the purchase of livestock for their plants, and in the sale of meats to the retailer—and ex pressed the conclusion that the law of supply and demand would serve sufficiently to protect the consumer. Their view was supplemented by that| of a retail butcher, and given minor support in the appearance of a vegeta- ble cannery representative and the head of a milk condensing business, ' to object to licensing provisions of the i Kenyon bills which they felt would janply to their business if not chang- ed. Ransdell, Louis- Senator iana, said: “We've been told the big packers are going into everything.” the senator queried, “controlling the sale of some 700 other products. Do vou think it would be a good thing to have them put all these other smaller men out of business and establish a monopoly in foodstuffs?” “No, but I'd say to license the other and let the livestock industry alome,” Solomon Greenwald, a beef dealer of Baltimore. replied. H. C. Bertram, manager of an in- dependent concern with packing plants at Philadelphia. Wilmington and Bal- timore, was pressed for an answer on the same general subject by Senator Ransdell. “There is a ver: there,” he said. ‘The packers, with their more efficient organization, might be able to distribute foodstuffs to the consumer cheaper thap other men in the specialized lines, I'll admit, and so put them out of business. It's a question of- economic law.” democrat, delicate question QUESTIONED OFFICERS OF BOSTON POLICEMEN'S UNION Boston, Aug. 20.—Officers elected by the new policemen's union today were summoned to police headquarters for a conference with Superintendent Crowley regarding their activities in the organization, the joining of which had been forbidden by Police Com- missioner Curtis. No word as to the outcome of the conference was avail- able. ,Later in_the day members gf 2 eit; cil mitw‘g:’i( the w)‘ sioner to di the situation.’ statement by ‘the chairman of committee said.. “The commissioner. while admitting the right of all employes to organize and endorsing the aims and objects of labor unions in general. holds that police officers are not employed in the ordinary sense of the word. but are public officials, and in his opinion membership in the labor organization is not compatible with their duty as such “officiais. “He further stated that the ques- ition as to whether police officers were employes or public officials would probably be determined by the courts, and if the decision was adverse to his contention of course the rule he had promulgated prohibiting membership in the union would be illegal and any men discharged for its violation would be reinstated. TESTIMONY AT COURTMARTIAL OF ENSIGN HARRY ERLANGE New York, Aug. 20.—Among wit- nesses who testified today at the court martial at the Brooklyn navy vard of Ensign Harry Erlanger, charge with | having conspired with Lieutenant B. J. Ellert to win promotion, were the de- fendant's father. mother and sister, who denied that he had purchased a fur coast and presented it to Mrs. Ellert in order to win her husband’'s favor. The Erlanger family said the Ellerts had called at their home, but that naval matters were not discuss- ed. Commander John Grady, winner of the congressional medal of honor, an- other witness, testified he'alone was responsble for Erlanger's promotion from chief vocman to ensign. The commander said that he was convinc- ed after watching Erlanger's work that he was entitled to promotion and the Ellert had nothing to do with it. The commander acknowledged that he had received gifts from Erlanger and that his wife had given Erlanger a Christmas present, but insisted that the exchange of presents did not influ- ence his conduct toward the accused. The commander denied he had given Erlanger detailed information regard- ing questions he would be asked at his examination for a commission. DECISION UPHOLDS WAR- TIME PROHIBITION ACT New York. Aug. 20.—Holding that the war emergency still exists, Federal Judge Augustus N. Hand, in an opin- ion handed down today. refused to grant a temporary order sought by Scatena, Lawson & Perelli, owners of vineyards in California, with a place of business in this city, to restrain fed- eral authorities here from enforcing provisions of the wartime prohibition act. In asking for the order, the wine manufacturers alleged that the .law was unconstitutional for the reason that no war emergency now. exists. In his decision Judge Hand said: “It is plain from the terms of the act that among its objects is the reg- ulation of the liguor trafic dufng the period of demobilization. That is a critical period, more critical in some respects than’that of actual Thostili- es.

Z0.—Whether a nationwide strike of iron and steel -workers will be called depends upon a conference which the union leaders hope .to obtain . within the next ten days with rspresentatives of the United States Steel corporation. If the corporation officials refuse to meet the union representatives a conference committee of six. representing the 24 unions involved, headed by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor. is empowered to call a strike forthwith. This sums up the conference of rep- resentatives of the unions affiliated with the American Federation of La- bor which today canvassed the vote of unions on the gquestion of calling a strike, as announced this evening by W. Z. Foster, member of the .confer- ence commitiee and spokesman for the unions. Without. giving exact figures, Myr. Foster stated that 98 per cent. of the workers voting on the question had voted in favor of a walkout. In the absence of Mr. Gompers, who is returning from Europe. Mr. Foster intimate dthat other members of the conference committee might proceed to afrange for the meeting with repre- sentatives of the steel corporation. E. H. Gary, chairman of the board of the United States Steel corporation, ptobably will be first aproached on the subject of a conference to take up the basic demands of the unions, Mr. Fos- ter intimated. These basic' demands include: Right of collective bargaining: re- instatement of all men discharged for union activities, with pay for time lost: the eight hour day; one day's rest in seven: abolition of 24-hour shifts: double rates of pay for all overtime work and for work on Sundays and holidays.
