F Omahans to Attend Kansas City River | Navigation Meeting Probably no less than a half dozen or | ten representative Omaha business men | will go to Kansas ity as delegates to & | river navigation conference to be held | there August 17. J. W. Gamble, Robert H. Manley, Congressman Lobeck and Frank Hughes are among those who are pretty sure to go; and a half dozen others | will go if it is possible for them to get away at the time. Some of the officlals of the Commerelal club will be in the| delegation. The conference is called by the river| navigation boosters of Kansas City. ‘They have called for delegats from all th river towns that have any interest in the navigation of the Missouri river. The conference will take up the matter of| fighting to have the Missouri river de- velopment continued. The preliminary re- | port of Lieutenant Colonel Dekayne of the United States army corps of engl-| neers was not favorable to the continu- ance of the development with federal money at this time. The congressional policy as outlined and worked out a Yrv&'\ years ago contemplated the expenditure | of $20,000000 within ten years on the de- velopment of the lower stretch of the| Missouri. Unlese a vigorous protest, with good reasons, can be raised, this plan, it is possible, may be abandoned by the federal government following the army engi-| neer's report. Local Grain Men = Say the Dardanelles May Be Opened Soon The fact that grain brokers for France and England late Thursday cancelled orders in Chicago and New York for the delivery of more than 2,000,000 bush- els of wheat during September had a depressing effect upon the Omaha grain market. The cash market here followed | that of Chicago and commenced selling off from the opjening of the morning session of the exchange. The loss for the | day ranged from 3@séc. ‘There was no old wheat offered, but of the crop of this year, there were thirty-four carloads on the market, sell- ing at $1.09GL.15 per bushel. Corn sold off in sympathy with wheat, the decline being %#@lc. There were twenty-eight carloads, the sales being made at T4@75%c per bushel. Oats were strong and steady to 2c up, the prices being 50@62%c per bushel, | with sixteen carloads on the market. Omaha graln men cling to the opinion that the drop In prices at this time is a forerunner of a decline that is to con- tinue untfl & much lower level is reached. ‘They assert that perhaps the drop now is due to the early opening of the Darda- nelles, which will result in the release of the Russian wheat crop of last year that has been held back. Wanted to Take Boy With Him in Navy, A pathetic case came to the notice of the local pavy recruiting station at the Federal building when & nice appearing man entered with a boy about § years old. The man gave the name of Henry Chandler and sald that he was from Chicago. He asked whether or not he could join the mavy and be allowed to take his little boy with him. In his story | he explained that the mother of the boy | had died some months ago, and he had | lost his place as clerk in a Chicago store when the firm failed a short time after his wife's death. Since then he has been looking for work in several cities, finally coming to Omaha, only to be unable to secure & place. He sald that he had promised his wife on her deathbed that he would not place the boy in an orphan asylum and that he would always re- main with him, but that he was nearly out of money and could find no work, 80 thought that he might be allowed to enter the navy and at the same time be allowed to keep bis boy with him.

Faction. GIVES REA!ON FOR ATTITUDE | WASHINGTON, Aug. 13 Presi- dent Wilson on his return from | Cornish, N. H., today was given a| comprehensive account of the Mex-| fean situation in all {ts phases by | secretary Lansing. The secretary told the president that official reports indicated that the situation in the vielnity of Brownsville was of a local character | | and that quiet prevalled at Vera | Cruz, where there had been some He out- discussion of ence yesterday of the American dip- ’ lomats. Look for Enrly Peace. { Neither the vresident nor Secretars Lansing were inclined to view the sit uation as requiring any further precau- tionary measures than have been taken || in sending battleships to Mexican waters | and more federal troops to the Texas | border. They devoted most of thelr time | | to a discussion of the inter-American | plan on which they are planning their | hopes for the early restoration of peace In Mexico, The appeal to all factions has not yet | been sent, although signed by Secretary || Lansing and the ambassadors and min- isters of the six central and southern || American governments participating In the conference. A list of chiefs, gen- erals and governors is being complled | | and as soon as the locations of all are determined the appeal will be telegraphed simultaneously to every part of Mexico. On the eve of this action came the announcement from the Villa agency here tonight that General Carransza haa flatly refused to enter into any peace | conference with his opponents. Enrique | C. Lilorente, Washington representative ' of General Villa, gave cut letters which have passed between him and Elizo | Arredondo, the Carranza representative ! Dbere. Mr. Llorente began the correspondence | in observing in the press that Charles A. Douglas, counsel for General Car- ranza, had filed a brief with the State department calling attention to the pres- || ence In Washington of Louls Cabrera | and Elizo Arredondo as Carranza rop- | resentatives, and saying that “either or | both of them, I am assured, will be! glad to confer with any element of the Mexican people with a view to further ing the common interest and the peace and welfare of the nation.” | Mr. Llorente promptly telegraphed Gen- | | eral Villa and was instructed to begin a discussion of peace torms. Mr. Ar- redondo rerlied that he would refer the matter to General Carranza, whose re- spomse came today in the form of in- structions to Arredondo not to enter into | | negotiations wi*h the Vilia agents. The Carranza message set forth Wit there could be né negotiations with the | | Villa Torces becaure their troops on July | | 12 laet attacked a 1military convoy killing many innocer people.
