TEDDY MAY STAY AWAY YEAR
Australia Likely to Be Added to the
Colonel's Itinerary.
Perhaps Colonel Roosevelt Is to be
away from this country for a year. A
report was In circulation that when he
finished his visit to South America he
will go to Australia and that the two
trips will take up the better part of
a year. It was reported also that
when the colonel gets back he will re
tire as contributing editor of the Out
look. "It is true that intimations have
been received that the Australianr
want Mr. Roosevelt," said Mr. Abbott
of the Outlook, "but thus far he has
received no direct invitation. Thero
is not much doubt that he is conside--ing
going there but I am certain that
nothing is settled yet."
FOUND IT HARD
TO CUT TARIFF
Senator Williams Admits Logic
Is Lacking
BLAMES REPUBLICANS FOR IT
Manufacturing Leg of Tariff Stilts ll
Longer Than Agricultural Leg, Com
plains Senator Cummina In Debate.
Senator Williams of Mississippi iu
the tariff debate said the Democrats
had found it difficult to deal logically
with the tariff because the industrial
conditions had been placed on high
stills by years of Republican protec
tion. i Is prompted Senator Cummins to
ask why the Democrats had not cut
off a little of both stilted legs, "In
st end of leaving the industrial body
crippled with the manufacturing log
lon;,er than the agricultural leg."
Senator Williams replied that they
were "afraid it would kill the poor
thing" to walk straight all at once.
"Vou have put the country on
stilts," said Senator Williams, ad
dreFsing the Republicans. "We can't
reuuee the duties in one bill all that
we would like to on account of the
chaotic artilicial condition you hava
(rented. We cannot run a thread ot
logic through this bill for that very
reason."
"I agree with the senator from Miss
issippi that the Payne-Aldrlch law
gave the American legs stilts that
were too high, but I think the way to
correct the trouble is to saw off a fair
length from both legs. Put the sen
ator from Mississippi would saw off
one leg entirely and leave the other
where it was, thus leaving a very dis
jointed and perverted industrial body.
He should leave the agricultural leg
no shorter than the manufacturing
leg."
"Well," said Senator Williams, "we
found the poor thing with one leg al
ready longer than the other and we
took off proportionately from the long
leg. but still the poor crippled thing
will have to go stumbling along."
"But you should equalize the legs,''
said Senator Cummins.
"Oh, we struck a fellow so in the
habit of walking with one leg longer
than the otuer that we were afraid.it
would kill him If both legs were made
exactly even," Senator Williams re
torted, arousing laughter of the Demo
crats.
Senator Bristow declared that In the
pending bill the Democrats had "de
liberately and outrageously discrim
inated against the farmer in favor of
the manufacturer."
"Does the senator mean to say,"
asked Senator Williams, "that the
Democrats of the house and senate de
liberately got up a scheme to Injure
the American farmer?"
"I would not want to attribute to the
senator from Mississippi and his col
leagues such an unworthy purpose,"
replied Senator Bristow, "but I say
they have framed a bill which does.'

STRONG DEMAND
SENT MEXICO
Shooting ol American Official
in Juarez Arouses Capital
AMBASSADORJTWHITE HOUSE
Administration's New Policy In Mexi
can Affair Soon to Be Announced,
Capital Think Situation Critical.
If another scrap of evidence were
needed to demonstrate that the Mex
ican situation is sadly In need ot a
remedy the administration has it now
in the shooting of Charles Dixon, Unit
ed States immigration Inspector, by
federal soldiers at Juarez.
The Dixon shooting was made th
occasion of the most vigorous repre
sentations yet ordered by the depart
ment of state. Aside from the gravity
et the incident in Itself the wanton
ness and reckless defiance of the
United States which Inspired the
occurrence has proven to Washington
that the United States, its authority
and Its representatives are being re
garded with contempt In Mexico.
Representations were made both to
the military authorities at Junrez, and
to the responsible authorities of the
Huerta government In Mexico City.
Peremptory demands were made for
speedy reparation and redress for the
offense.
Consul Edwards at Juarez has de
manded the arrest and confinement of
all the federal officers and soldiers
concerned in the shooting of Dixon.
It Is ut known definitely In Washing
ton whether his demands have been
acceded to. Mr. Edwards has also
been busy gathering the names of
witnesses to the shooting and seeing
that these witnesses were not spirited
away. He also demanded that permis
sion be granted for the removal of
Dixon to an El Paso hospital.
Charge d'Affalre O'Shaughnessy In
Mexico City has been instructed
by Secretary Bryan to call at once on
the minister of war in Mexico City
and demand that all concerned In the
shooting of Dixon be Imprisoned
immediately. He was also directed
to demand that the trial of the of
fenders proceed forthwith. He In
formed the minister of war of what
the American consul at Juarex whs
doing In the case and insisted that
every facility be extended to him to
expedite the apprehension and proper
punishment of all concerned.
It Is confidently expected that the
Huerta government will not be slow
to express Its extreme regret at the
occurrence and to expedite the punish
ment ot the guilty parties.
Though the Dixon incident would
have been an affair of serious con
sequence at any time it Is felt that
the ultimate effect on the situation Is
likely to be Increased coming as it
does at the most critical moment in
Mexican relations In recent years.
Washington feels that It is on the
eve of a momentous decision upon the
part of the administration In regard to
Mexico. What that decision will be
nobody seems to know, but that it will
be a turning point in the situation no
one doubts. Out of the tension of the
last few days has come unanimity In
regard to at least one fact in the.
Mexican trouble and that Is that some
thing must be done and done at once.
Even Secretary of State Bryan, who
has been reluctant to admit the
gravity of the Mexican situation, now
holds this view.
Ambassador to Mexico Wilson met
the president and urged as a cardinal
principle of his policy the recognition
of the Huerta government and other
steps calculated to throw the entire
support of this government to the
side ot the Huerta government and
to the discouragement of all the move
ments in opposition to him. On the
other side nonrecognitlon has been
and still Is the cardinal principle of
the Wilson administration.
Senator Bacon and other powerful
men In the senate and house are fully
in sympathy with this course and all
the propositions which have recelvod
the most serious consideration at the
White House have involved a con
tinuance of this policy. It is difficult
to see therefore how the ambassador
can get very far toward convincing
the administration of the wisdom ot
his course with this apparently Ir
reconcilable difference of opinion as
to fundamentals encountered at the
very outset
Mr. Wilson believes that the plan
which he has presented for the ap
proval of the administration will not
only protect the lives and the prop
erty ot Americans in Mexico, but that
it will have such a markedly favorable
influence upon the twe countries
bordering on the Rio Grande that all
the present alarming symptoms of
friction and possible conflict will
shortly disappear. The ambassador
not only believes that this plan will
compose the situation, but that noth
ing else will.

Mine Guards Are Fired Upon;
. Strikers Blamed
PARTY ATTACKED SUDDENLY
Wounded Guard Shoots Down Two Be
fore He Dies Sheriff With Dogi
Goes Into Hills Hunting Assailants
Three men were killed and anothei
was fatally wounded In a battle which
occurred at Wake Forest, on Cabin
creek, West Virginia, when an attack
was made by a party alleged to be
striking miners on two mine watch
men.
The dead are: Frank Gtnn, employe
of the Wake Forest Mining company;
Cleve Woodrun, a striker; Don Slater,
an employe of the coal company.
An unidentified striker was wound
ed. Since the mining town of Ohley, on
Cabin creek, was attacked by strikers
three weeks ago it has been the
custom for the operators to have
watchmen scout the hillsides before
the miners are allowed to enter the
mines where a strike Is on.
Slater, who served several years i
ft deputy sheriff on Cabin creek, and
who has acted as a guard for the coat
companies, accompanied by Ginn, was
making the usual search when a band
opened Are on them.
Oinn fell fatally wounded and Slater
was shot through the leg. Slater re
turned the fire, killing two of the at
tacking party and recognizing a third,
who Is reported to be under arrest.
Slater was shot through the stomach
later.
The Wake Forest mine Is under the
control of the Cabin Creek Consoli
dated Coal company, against whose
mines a strike has been called by the
United Mlneworkers of America. Re
ports that strikers have been arming
themselves around the strikers' campc
at Eskdale and elsewhere have been
received frequently by Sheriff Hill the
past few weeks.
"NO RIGHTS, NO CITIZENS"
Dr. Bernstein Fathers "Birth Strike"
Idea in Germany.
The declaration ot a "birth strike''
was suggested at a meeting held to
discuss the advisability of a general
strike as the best means ot bringing
about electoral reforms in Prussia.
The father of the Idea was Dr. Alfred
Bernstein, who declared that most suc
cessful pressure would be exerted on
the government If mothers would an
nounce: "We will bring no children Into the
world to become citizens of this stata
unless better rights ot citizenship are
recorded."
The slogan of the mothers could bt

Everything Was Going Along Nice In
Balkans, Too.
Just when the situation in the Bal
kans seemed to be taking a mo-e
favorable turn, Bulgaria having recog
nized the fact of her defeat and being
willing to negotiate for peace, a new
situation was caused by the reappear
ance of Turkey on the Bcene and the
whole affair hus now taken a most
serious aspect.
A feeling approaching consternation
has been caused by a report that the
Turks were irivanelng toward Philip
popolis and it Is understood that King
Ferdinand of Bulgaria has asked for
tho Intervention of the powers.
