. tatively tonight that the WILLING TO TREAT WITH CARRANZA Proposition of First Ohief for Settlement Accepted With One Addition. 3 WIDER 'SOOPE I8 'ASKE \Vashington, July 29.—General Car- ranza was informed tonight in a note handed to his ambassador here that the Washington government is pre- pared to submit to a joint interna- tional commission the task of seeking a solution of border problems. The oroposal of the de facto government for a commission is accepted, however, with the suggestion that the power of the commissioners be enlarged beyond the limits proposed in the Mexican note of July 12, Agreement to this suggestion is ex- pected and it was stated officially to- night that the American members would be appointed and the commis- sion be assembled at some point in the United States at an early date. Text of the Note. Following is the full text of Acting Secretary Polk’s note as deiivered to Lliseo Arredondo, Mexican ambassa- dor designate, after it had been ap- proved by President Wilson and his * cabinet: “Sir—1I have the honor to acknowl- edge the receipt of your communica. . tion of July 12 last, in which you tran- scribe’a note addressed to me by the secretary of foreign relations of your government and to request that you will be good enough to transmit to him the following reply: “Mr. Secretary—I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your ex- cellency’s note transmitted under date of July 12 by Eliseo Arredondo, your government's confidential agent in Washington, informing me that your excellency has received instructions from the citizens’ first chief of the constitutionalist army charged with the executive power of the union to propose that each of our governments name three commissioners who shall hold conferences at some place to be mutually agreed upon and decide forthwith the question relating to the evacuation of the American forces now in Mexico, and to draw up and conclude a protocol or agreement re- garding the reciprocal crossings of the frontier by the forces of both coun- tries; also to determine the origin of vae incursions to date, in order to fix the responsibility therefore, and defi- nitely to settle the differences now pending or those which may arise be- tween the two countries on account of the same or a similar reason; all of which will be subject to the approval of both governments. President Willing t¢ Confer. “In reply, I have the honor to state that 1 have laid your excelleacy’s note before the president, and have received his instructions to inform your excellency that the government of the United States is disposed to ac- cept the proposal of the Mexican ,goverament. in the . same gpirit of frank cordiality in which it is.made. ‘This government believes ‘and " sug- gests, however, that the powers of the proposed commission should be enlarged, so that, if happily, a 'solu- tion satisfactory to both govérnments of the questions set forth in your ex- cellency’s communication may be reached, the commission may also consider ‘such other matters, the friendly arrangement of which would tend to improve the relations of the two countries; it being understood that such recommendations as the commission may make shall not be binding upon their respective gov- ernments until formally accepted by them. Will Name a Commission. “Sheuld this proposal be accepted by your excellency’s:government, I have the honor to state.that this gov- ernment will proceed immjediately to appoint " its commissioner§ " and fix, after consultation: with our excel- lency’s government,, the time and place and other details of the pro- posed conference.” ] Appointment - of - the. "American commissioners will await General Carranza's reply. If he approvés the suggestion that the scope of the com- mission's. relations be enlarged, as de- sired, it is expected his note will be accompanied by authorization to Mr. Arrendodo to confer with Mr. Polk as to the time and place of the meet- ing. President Wilson is understood to have at least a score of men under consideration for appointment as commissioners, Among them are Chief Justice White, Major General Goethals, former governor of the Canal zone; Frederick Lehman, for- mer solicitor general, and Louis D. Brandeis, associate justice of the su- preme court. It was stated authori- president had not-attempted yet to make any selection, Unofficial information from Mexico has been to the effect that Luis Ca- brera, Mexican minister of finance, would head the Mexican membership of the commission. Neither the State department nor Mr. Arredondo has official information on that point. General Carranza’s reply is not ex- pected for several days, and officials here do not believe the commission can begin sessions for two weeks at least. The State department will in- sist that the meeting place be within the United States, as-the question is not one of mediation which would re- quire a neutral setting, The proposal to widen the scope of subjects to be discussed by the com- mission is viewed in administration circles as an extremely important as- pect of the situation.” It is through an exchange of ideas on the whole Mexican problem that it is hoped a way may be found to furnish con- structive aid to the de facto gov- ernment in the financial and econom- ical problem with which it is suf- rounded. It has been suggested that American bankers might be urged to go to the aid of the Mexican gov- ernment under certain conditions, Neither American nor Mexican offi- cials here have been willing to dis- cuss the policy, however, and it ap- pears certain the administration has no present plan of that nature. Mr. Arredondo issued today a sum- mary of his advices from Mexico City, saying that 10,000 Carranza troops were closing in upon Villa JITNEY 2] WEBSTER 202 1917 MAXWELL || CARS. ! and his followers in southern Chi- huahua, and that destruction of the bandit command is certain. It is the first Mexican admission that Villa still is alive. The State and War departments have no positive infor- mation on this point and officials dif- fer in their opinions. Following is Mr. Arredondo’s statement: “The Mexican embassy has been informed by cable from Mexico' City that, high military .officials of the government now assert that - with a-cordon of 10,000 men now closing around him and determined on his capture, Villa at last may truthfully be said to be in imminent danger of elimination from the general prob- lem of Mexican politics. “The same cable conveys the in- formation that the department of agriculture has taken in hand the development of the state of Guerrero as a cotton producing area. In times gone by cotton has been planted on a small scale in Guerrero and it is found that it grows well and the cli- mate is suitable to it. With the view of making Guerrero a great cotton state, 15,000 acres of land have been prepared and the government has shipped in fifty tons of cotton seed. “General Lopez de Lara, governor of the federal district, hasordered all superintendents of haciendas (plan- tations) in the territory under his command, to distribute all lands of an agricultural character not under cultivation to neighboring farmers in order to insure the immediate plant- ing of all good areas. A similar notice has been issued throughout the other states of the republic.” HAPPENINGS IN THE MAGIC CITY Laborer at Point of Death as Result of Oppressive Heat of Yesterday. IS FOUND IN ' ALLEY Frank Fatka, laborer in the street gang of the Omaha and Council Bluffs Street Railway company, lies at the point of death in _the South Side hospital as the result of the op- pressive heat of yesterday. He was discovered by the police in the alley between M and N streets and Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth streets, where he had fainted early in the afternoon. Police Surgeon R. R. Losey attended him at the station, but was unable to bring him back to consciousness, Street car officials said that he had become weak in the early afternoon and was sent home at 4 o'clock. He was discovered by the police at 6:30 o’clock, and had apparently been un- conscious for a long time. His iden- tity was unknown to the police until several hours afterwards when his wife called the station asking if her husband had been seen. Fatka has worked with the street car company four weeks since the work of relaying track along Twenty- fourth_gtreet: mna;fi%%_fie is 40 ears 0ld and lives at Washing- ton ‘streef. E Must Have Air, « ¥ Coppers, attorneys, reporters and all” such “pests” will have 'to keep away from the right window in the South Side police court, according to order of Judge Reed yesterday morn- ing. The judge told an unusually large gathering yesterday morning that they were hindering the smooth machinery of the court. He ap- pointed Sergeant Carey to take charge of the place and “keep the air comin’ in.” Dies of Heart Failure. Hugh Kennedy, aged 31 years, South Side young man, who was found dead in a room at 2516 N street yesterday morning at 9:30 o'clock, died of Kenrt failure, accord- ing to Dr. W. H. Betz, attending physician, after a thorough examin-[ ation, “Death was-not due in any way to heat prostration,” Dr. Betz said- yesterday. A mother and four sisters survive. The' family live at 1506 South Twenty-fifth street. Kennedy was a clerk in: the em- ploy. of the Western Weighing as- sociation. He had been working for the concern a year and was con- sidered a responsible employe. He CHIROPRACTIC The Sensible, Drugless Road to Health 1. Is a 'science based on the principle that the perfect functioning of every or- gan and every part of the human body, demands one hundred per cent of nervous energy. 2. Nervous energy has its origin in the brain; from the brain emanates the spinal cord, which sends out nerve fibres to all parts of the body. 3. These fibres, innumerable and thregdlike, which supply nervous energy to the respective organs, leave the spinal cord through small channels or openings between the vertebrae (joints of the spine.) 4. 1f from jars, wrenches, contracted muscles or other causes, any of the verte- brae become digplaced, even to the most minute degree, the nerve fibre becomes impinged, thereby rendering it incapable of carrying its full supply of nervous energy to’the organ which it controls. This condition causes a weakening of the functions of ‘the organ and consequent il health. A. Dr, Burhorn is able to determine the conditions of all parts of the body. B. To associate each specific misplaced vertebrae (subluxation) with the result- t diseased condition, C. To adjust the spine to a normal alignment, allowing nature to restore toa healthy condition. D. The response of nature to adjusted subluxations is almost invariably prompt and pronounced. . If you are sick go to Dr. Burhorn and let him tell you all about this wonderful drugless science.
