Huyett, pastor of the First Re formed church, will officiate and burial will be made in the Baldwin Ceme tery.

BOARD MEMBERS 10 BE SUMMONED If They Do Not Give Information They May Be Arrested For Contempt of State Members of the S State Economy and A Efficiency Commta- I' 13' sion havo given no- Jftm. tice that unless officials of State Ife examining hoards JoS333Jt appear to give in | eWmflpßWljy formation as to the % conduct of their aSB jS branches of the ''-".j government as re mMKJH n nun quested the com mission will ask for legal measures to compel them to appear.

Practically all of the heads of de partments of the state government have appeared before the commission and given information to supplement what the commission ascertained in its investigations as to the number, salaries and duties of officials and at taches.

Many Ask Pensions.—ln the last two weeks applications for mothers' pensions have been made from a dozen counties where no boards for the ad ministration of such service ore in existence.

REBELS SAY HUERIA WONT REACH COAST [Continued J\r>m First Pago] any unpleasant incident had occur red. Jamaica Is Considered Most Likely Port For Huerta and His Party By Associated Press Puerto Mexico, Mexico, July 17. Jamaica Is the port most frequently mentioned aboard the foreign ships as the destination of General Huerta, al though It is admitted that a tinal choice of a place of refuge lay with the overthrown provisional president, who will afrive here to-day. Huerta is said to haVe mentioned that to a few of his friends as the one to which he would so should he, ever leave the country. Ho would have no difficulty in transferring there, to some trans- Atlantic steamer and without attract ing attention as he would in Havana. A little more than a cable's length from the German cruiser Dresden, on which it is expected General Huerta | will go, Mrs. Huerta and a number of the women in her party spent their first night off shore on the British I cruiser Bristol. The older women were ] given the best quarters on the ship, but it was impossible to provide ail with rooms, and recourse to cots placed on the awning-sheltered decks was resorted to. The children and young women of the party, used as they were to the comforts and lux uries of wealthy homes, nevertheless caught some of the spirit of camping out and the laughter that reached shore until late at night evidenced the fact that they are not greatly per turbed by their plight. Mexican Problem in no Way Solved Declare English Newspapers By Associated Press London, July 17. —Commenting upon the resignation of President Huerta, the morning papers give credit to President Wilson for the success of his policy, but consider that the Mexican imbroglio is in no way solved. New Government Will Be Short Lived He Says By Associated Press Havana, July 17. —The former Mexican minister of commerce, Que rido Moheno, prior to his departure het;e yesterday for New York via Key West, said liuerta's resignation was no surprise to him and expressed the belief that a constitutional govern ment would be short lived. "Within ninety days," he added, "the people who are now shouting approval will cry death to the revolu tion. In six months Huerta will be the most popular man in Mexico, be cause the Latin race always pities the fallen and opposes the powerful." The ATnerican customs inspectors refused to allow Senora Moheno to take aboard the steamer Miami with her hats trimmed with aigrettes, be cause such plumage is forbidden entry into the United States. She sent them back with a friend to Mexico and Senor Moheno, learning of the pro hibition, exclaimed: "This could only be expected from an American." Diaz Makes No Comment of Huerta's Retirement Paris, July 17.—General Porfirio Diaz, ex-President of Mexico, was packing in preparation for his de parture for Biarritz for the summer season when tho news came that Pro visional President Huerta had decided to resign. Neither the former dictator i nor his son Porfirio would make any comment, but it is known that he sug gested to Huerta some months ago the advisability of retiring. Privately Gene'ral Diaz has often sharply criticised the policy of the Washington Administration, but he has for some time, held the opinion I that Huerta's disappearance would fa- I t-il It ate a solution of the Mexican problem. Carranza Says He Will Not Recognize Old Debts Monterey, Mex., July 17.—"General I Carranza will not recognize the valld ' ity of the debts of Huerta after he en ters Mexico City and establishes a con stitutional government there," was the I statement made here yesterday by high constitutionalist officials. It was in answer to questions concerning a statement said to have been published in the United States that foreign na tions had made a demand through Washington that Carranza agree to , recognize the legality of the debts of | Huerta and grant .amnesty to -11 po i litical prisoners. Attorney General of Republic Quits Office Mexico City, July 17.—Ricardo Go mez Robelo. attorney general of the republic, has resigned.

C., July 17. —Admin- Jfitration officials saw peace looming to-day on the horizon of Mexican poli tics. Francisco Carbajai's informal statement to tb* Washington govern ment that he intended to retire in favor of Carranza, Constitutionalist chief, and Carranza's announcement that he was villing to negotiate witb I the federals f.'or peaceful transfer of power in Mej tco City was regarded as practical assurance that tho era of bloodshed was near an end In the southern rej üblie.
