I . U. S. TO AID MEXICO

AWAIT FOREIGN CAPITAL
TVA8HINCJTON, Oct. 21 With Carrnnza
tflbllihcd " hBl ot th" facto kov-
, ;nment of Mexico, the United States and
the other Powers responsible lor ills se
lection are now carefully considering how
iha new government shall be financed.
Mexico Is absolutely bankrupt. Its Indus
tries are almost completely ruined. Many
ef Its cities have been practically de
stroyed. In order to obtain the means
seeded to restore tho xepubllo to 1U place
in the family of nations enormous sums
ef money must be supplied. And all that
now Is available as security on which to
borrow the money probably three-quarters
of a billion dollars from American
bankers, are tho natural resources of the
country. It 1 now realized that the United
States must finance Mexico for the next
tiro generations.
Officials of the State Department very
frankly admit that the claims which
must be assumed by Carranza for dam
ages sustained by American Interests and
the permanent a-overnment that will suc
ceed him will exceed 250,000.000. And
there are some officials who say that
the figure will be double that sum. The
Southern Pacific Railway, the Guggen
heim smelting Interests, the Greene Con
solidated Copper Company and hundreds
of other American corporations and In
dividuals have claims that total well Into
the hundreds of millions. Then there
are the death clalmswon behalf of tho
ISO or more Americans who have fallen
victims to tho Mexican bandits and the
hundreds of claims on behalf of the
American and other foreign ranchers
whose establishments have been looted
and buildings burned during the passage
of the tide of rapine and robbery to and
fro across the most prosperous section
of Mexico.
British oil and railway corporations
likewise have filed claims for millions.
So have French, Spanish, German and
Chinese financiers. The total is stagger
ing, and even when the legal claims are
separated from those which are to be
repudiated the sum total will bo hard
to raise.
To finance the claims it is expected
that a bond issue, secured by the in
ternal resources, customs duties, and a
system of taxation to be devised by the
new Mexican Congress, when elected,
will be ordered. These bonds, will have
the unofficial guarantees, at least, of the
United States and Latin-American countries.
BRYN MAWR GRADUATE
IHAPS WHITE SLAVERS
jLMrs. Joseph A. Bryant Rouses
Court With Story of De
tective Work
Mrs. Joseph A. Bryant, of Boston, wide-
Irknown sociological Investigator and
graduate or Bryn Mawr College, startled
even the hardened hangers-on of Gen
eral Sessions Court In New Tork before
Judge Mulqueen, yesterday, by her de
scription of how she posed as the keeper
ef a disorderly house to trap white slave
operators.
With Detective Enright, head of the
New Tork white slave squad, Mrs. Bryant
fitted up a Hat. She went into Harlem's
"Little Italy" as "Madam Wallace" and
there met Ralph Guarano, Joseph Spotta
and George Splcca. By arrangement the
three met her later at the flat. Mrs. Bry
ant painted the detective's eye black and
he told them he had been in a fight.
Cigarette stumps were scattered about
the floor, together with empty wine
bottles. Mrs. Bryant told the white
slavers she wanted to buy some girls,
fine testified that the three acocpted $50
in marked money after bringing five girls
to the flat. Spotta and Splcca confessed
and pleaded guilty when confronted with
the evidence. The trial of Guarano, who
Pleaded not guilty. Is continuing today.
Since her graduation, Mrs. Bryant has
been a student of sociology. She has done
considerable work for the Federal au
thorities In connection with the white
slave investigation In Porto Rico and
elsewhere Deputy Police Commissioner
Lord engaged her last May to collect evi
dence against the white slavers of New
Tork.
It was denied at Bryn Mawr College to
day that Mrs. Bryant had ever attended
that Institution. The secretary of the col
lege said that the lists of married alumni
did not contain the name of Mrs. Bryant
Ehe also said that the lists were complete.

Man Gathers "Mushrooms," Eats 'Em
and Has Toadstool Poisoning
William Brester spent a delightful day
In the country. He frolicked among the
woodlands and, as the poets say, drank
In with rapture the Inspiring autumn
breezes. Incidentally, William picked
"mushrooms." He Is now doing nicely
in the University Hospital.
Brester. who Is a trolley car conductor,
living at C6S3 Woodland avenue, got tired'
of car bells and nickel fares and decided
to spend a day gathering mushrooms.
Through the hills and dales of Darby
ho gamboled, picking the Innocent mush
rooms hither and thither. They grow
few and for between and he returned
homo at night tired and weary. His
mother cooked them for him, and three
quarters of an hour later he was resting
on a comfortable hospital cot, suffering
from toadstool poisoning. Doctors said
It was good they did grow few and far
between, ,as If Brester had eaten a few
more he would have died, Brester says
he Intends to spend his next day oft In
tho city.

organizations and those of neighboring
counties will be represented. Visiting
leagues from nearby States have also
been assigned their places In line. It has
been estimated that twice the number of
enthusiasts who made the demonstration
of May such a notable affair will march
tonight, and three or four times the
number of the citizens who lined the
sidewalks and took their places In win
dows and on roofs to watch them are
expected to come forth tonight because
of the fact that the parade Is being held
after office hours.
A busy bee atmosphere has character

been planned and floats and transparen
