according to official Information from the

sulted In the order ''to shoot to kill,"

fleeing from Mexico In considerable num
bers. Detwecn 20 and 30 persons arrived

ALLIES' COMMISSION
INSISTS ON LOAN OF
BILLION OR NOTHING
Points of Difference Must Bo
Threshed Out by Coming
Week If Project Is to
Succeed, Is Belief
LIMIT TO USE REJECTED
NEW YOIiK, Sept. 18 -There are sev
eral points of difference between the
stands of the Anglo-French financial com
mission and American bankers which
must be settled before further progress
can be made on the great loan to the
Allies, It was understood today. It Is be
lieved that a compromise will be reached
early next week or the loan will not be
made. The points are understood to be:
The Allies will not be sstlsned with the
tM0,O00,000 to which the bankers wish to
limit them. They want l,000,a,000.
Any stipulation limiting the use of the
proceeds of the loan to the purchase of
articles other than munitions of war wilt
be rejected.
The demand of German-American
bankers that no part of the loan shall be
used for the benefit of nussla Is not pleas
ing to the commission.
Five per cent, is the limit the Allies
will pay for the money. No banking
commission or syndlcato arrangement
will be countenanced.
The onlv points on which both side are
In harmony are that the loan shall be ob
tained by the sale of Pranco-Hrltlih Gov
ernment securities and that no collateral
shnll be deposited.
Neither the bankers nor the commission
would make any official statement on
their stand
It Is understood that formal Invitations
have been extended to Kuhn, Loeb & Co.
and other Oerman-Amerlcan banking
houses to participate In the conferences
and the loan.
The commission held a conference with
bankers' at tho Blltmore. which lasted
until early afternoon. All information
was refused. Secretaries of the com
missioners declared that they v. ere "out."
Tho commissioners will go out of the
city Inlo todny as week-end guests of
New Tork bankers.
A conference between Sir Cecil 8prlng
Rlce, the British Ambassador, and Lord
Reading, Lord Chief Justice of England
nnd member of the Anglo-Trench finan
cial commission, was held at the nilt
more this afternoon.
That some vital move was being ar
ranged In the matter of the loan to the
Allies was quickly assumed In financial
circles, and there was great speculation
regarding tho point at Issue.
It was nssumed by many persons that
the commissioners and the American,
bankers hud arrived at a deadlock In
their morning session, and that tho Am
bassador's aid was sought to arrange for
concessions from both parties.
The Ambassador came from hie sum
mer home at Beverly, accompanied by a
secret service man. He went directly to
his room and refused to see any callers.
Jnmes J. Hill and Robert Bacon, the
latter a former member of J P. Morgan
& Co, were among tho bnnkers who vis
ited the commission this morning. Ba
con, when leaving, said that he was
"hopeful for the success of the loan."
The two French members of the com
mission were week-end guests of Bacon.
OIL KING'S PHYSICIAN TELLS
OF ANTI-LOAN INTERVIEW
Dr. Biggar Describes How Rockefeller
Opposed Plan of Allies
CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 18. Dr. H. F.
Biggar, Br., for mpre than 40 years
Rockefeller's personal physician and con
fidant, was delighted today over Rocke
feller's publio announcement that he
would not help the Allies obtain a bit-llcn-dollar
war loan from United States
financiers. Doctor Biggar waa present
when the oil king told a correspondent on
the golf links of his Forest Hill estate
here that he had already refused loans
to England and Russia.
"I know positively, from .many conver
sntlons with Mr. Rockefeller, that he Is
utterly opposed on principle to doing any
thing which would tend to continue the
war," said Doctor Biggar today, "It Is
In my memory that Mr. Rockefeller has
said to mo concerning the warring na
tlcns, "Some are partly right, but all are
In the wrong.'
"During tho Interview Mr. Rockefeller
turned to me and said:
" 'This war Is awful; don't you think
It Is awful?'
"It Is clear that Mr. Rockefeller would
gain millions by making war loans; first,
because of the high rate of Interest such
a loan would bring; secondly, because It
would probably result In his supplying
oil to the navies of the Allies.
"But tho possibility that J. Plerpont
Morgan, In accordance with the present
Wall Street rumor, will take from Mr,
Rockefeller the title of 'the richest man
in the world' has absolutely no weight
In Mr. Rockefeller's decision not to reap
war profits."

MORE JOBS THAN MEN
REPORTED BY FEDERAL
EMPLOYMENT BUREAU
Official H6re Says Work Awaits
All Abie-Bodied Persons
Who Apply for Positions
to Authorities
15,000 WORKERS HELPED
;
There Is a Job for every man who wants
on. be his labor skilled or unskilled, ac
cording to Elmer E. Greenawalt, of the
local branch of the Federal Employment
Bureau at 125 South 2d street.
At the present time there Is a demand
for more than "00 men to (111 positions the
bureau has to ofTer, and despite adver
tising, the efforts of road agents nnd the
co-opcrntlon of the I'ostoITlce Depart
ment, tho list of positions to be had for
the asking Increases dally, the demand
greatly exceeding the supply.
Skilled labor Is more In demand than
unskilled, but any man, regardless of
ability, color, or nationality, who ma be
In need of a Job, has but to go to tho
bureau and obtain work at once, accord
ing to his capacity. Machinists are much
In demand, as well as miners, and It Is
Impossible to supply anything like the
number of farmhands and laborers de
sired. The Federal Bureau was originally de
signed with the idea of obtaining em
ployment for Immigrants as they landed
In America, but when the locnl branch
was established In this city on February
17, last. It ery quickly went outside Its
scope, co-operating with the Emergency
Aid Society during the past winter In ob
mining cmplojment for Jobless men In
general.
Success was Instant nnd thousands of
men wcro given work. In March employ
ment was found for more than 4000 men,
of whom 700 were sent to one Job at min
ing In West Virginia. Many men were
supplied to the Uu Pont Powder Works
nnd the plants In and out of tho city en
gaged In making munitions of war. Many
wero given employment as farmhands,
nnd within three months from the date
of the local bureau's opening the applica
tions for work and men averaged about
even.
This condition existed with unimportant
change until about the 1st of August,
when the demand began to exceed the
supply, gradually Increasing In this ratio
until present conditions wero reached.
In all about 15,000 men have obtained
work through the bureau In Philadelphia.
Tho bureau Is under the control of the
Department of Labor, nnd has the co-operation
of t.io Postomce Department and
the Department of Agriculture. The ter
ritory covered comprises the States of
Pennsylvania, Delaware and West Vir
ginia. The Department, pf Agriculture Is in
constant correspondence with farmers In
the States mentioned, and their applica
tions for ,mcn aro turned over to tho
Department of Labor In Washington,
who In turn advise tho local branch as
to men desired In their territory. The
Poitofflce Department posted notices In
every postomce In the territory, and fur
nished blanks for tho Jobless men to fill
out, Instructing postmasters to give every
aid possible to applicants, so that skilled
pr unskilled workmen had but to de
scribe their abilities to obtain that wel
come thing, a Job.
Returns from these sources were prompt
and numerous at the outset, decreasing
during the seven months of the existence
of the local branch, until the satisfying
condition of the past month became a
reality.
At the present time there Is a demand
for more than 250 miners from one mine
Jn West Virginia alone, and, openings for
more than 100 machinists In various parts
of the territory, as well as many farm
hands and laborers. Many trades are
represented on the bureau's list, includ
ing plumbers, carpenters and electricians.
In a word. Jobs were never so plentiful
and men to nil them so scarce.
"Every able-bodied man can get job
If he wanta one," said Mr. Robblns; "he
has but to apply to this ofUce."
