Washington, Nov i 5 . Waiting for
word from Provisional President Hu
erta this was the attitude of official
Washingii n tonight in the Mexicaa
situation. ' i':-- v
Administration officials still refused
to shed any light on the last commun
ication which conveyed to General Hu
erta the. desire of the United States
that he eliminate himself from' the
tangled situation.
Their attitude was that to discuss
publicly the delicate phases of the
i-roblem would defeat the ends being
sought. . . -
The feeling in the National capital
is none the less one of Jtense interest,
especially as to' what course will be
pursued if General Huerta declines to
abdicate. It was evident- from those
who talked with President Wilson
about the situation today that.he was
calmly awaiting developments. "
He has told, his friends that he
would continue, to. solve, the situation
by peaceful means and would not be
disturbed by predictions of armed in
tervention. .
The belief is general here that the
situation is being worked out ?with ex
treme secrecy in diplomatic channels
and that only when some tangible coni
elusion has been reached will there
be any official announcements. There
was no collective, opinion in official
circles as to ' the- probable nature . of
Huerta's reply to the. American rep
resentatives. So far as could be learn
ed no intimations have been received
to indicate, what ; this reply ,wyicbe.
Nothing from France. r -
The French ambassador ; here; M..
.Tusserand, ' has received no . instruc
tions froni hisgovernpiejit' to take "any
steps tnwarcf Tnedlatlon" between "the
United States : " and Mexico,;, a . course
indicated in dispatches from Paris - to
day, n- V. "' ' - " " ;" ;
The scout "cruiser Chester at ;; the
Philadelphia navy yard was ordered
today to prepare to sail for. Vera Cruz
immediately. The. Chester ' Is ; not a
heavy fighting ship but swift and val
uable for dispatch and scout" duty. Of
lighter draft than.-the big 'warships
now at Vera Cruz, she .will be able to
join the smaller 'craft inshore. The
Chester has the highest power ' wire
less apparatus of any ship in the navy.
With her apparatus, Washington and
Vera Cruz will be in direct touch con
stantly by medium; of the great wire
less towers at Arlington. The-unofficial
view is that the Chester-is being
sent to Vera Cruz principally as a
means of instant and official commun
ication. Secretary Daniels explained
that the dispatch of the Chester, was
Dart of his plans to substitute cruisers
for the heavier, hattleships in Mexican
waters so that the Jatter might re
sume practice. The change,- he said,
would be made, gradually as cruisers
were not available on the East coast
in any number.
Suited to Her Work.
The Chester, owing to her light draft
is especially adapted to service in, the
small harbor at Vera Cruz and will be
available if necessary for service in
the protection of foreigners at Tam-
pico or other Mexican gulf ports which
cannot be closely approached hy the
la rger battleships. It is the announc
ed intention of the. Navy Department
to order home one battleship upon the
Chester's arrival.
It will be necessary to pick enough
enlisted men from the batfleship North
Dakota, at the New York navy yard
and elsewhere to bring the Chester's
crew up to the full complement. It is
expected that can be done in 24 hours.
As the Chester "Is one of the ' fastest
ships of the navy, having mademore
than 26 and a half knots at her trial
trip, she should reach Vera Cruz by
next Monday evening or Tuesday
morning.
Secretary Daniels also announced
today that the armored cruiser Cali
fornia which was. to have been reliev
ed by the Pittsburgh, now on her way.
to the West coast -of. Mexico from San
Diego, Cal., would s be kept in Mexi
can waters for the present. The
A merican naval force on the West
coast will include the California, Pitts
burh and Maryland, all armored
cruisers, the gun boat Annapolis and
the supply ship Glacier. , --

r- 7 - Years Are Read to the
': Couft Monopoly."
St. Paul, .Minn., Nov. 5. Attorney
General if cReynolds, concluding final
arguments for dissolution of the , In
ternational Harvester company be-,
fore the United States District Court
this afternoon, asked that an inter
locutory decree be entered by .the
court declaring the Harvester coil
cern a monopoly in restraint of trade,
He ' requested that the defendants
have a reasonable 'time td submit a
proper plan of re-organization. '
"lt is the view of the government
that, this 'company must -be cut. up
into separate" and distinct units," the
attorney general said. "This mustjbe
done in such a; way that the stock
holders of the different parts must be
distinct- We insist that it is an eco
nomic impossibility for " companies
owned hy the' same people to furnish
bona, fide competition" .
'Mrr McStigynolds condemned Cyrus
McCormick, whom be called the foun
der of the Harvester Trust iause
Mr, . McCormick, had not appeared in
the case. - '
Mr. 'McReynolds reviewed the ca
reer of the Harvester company from
its own ten years ago, pointing out
specific instances in which, he said,
the law had' been violated, furnishing
a basis' for an order of .dissolution
under the iSherman law. .. ;'

Figures From "1903,
"Take the finances of this concern
in 1903 and take them now and what
haveswe? .
"In", 1903 the total business done by
the International Harvester Company
was 153,000,000; in 1912 it had In
creased to $125,000,000; in the same
length of time, its capital had increas
ed from $120,000,000 to $163,000,000
and between 1903 and 1911, the latest
figures available the assets of this
concern had increased from $130,000,
000 to $223,000,000. These figures in
terse form tell the story of the rapid
growth of the power of this concern.
This expansion has been so enormous
that the word of this corporation has
become absolute law to thousands and
thousands.
"When the McCormick, the Deer:
ing, .the Piano, the Champion, the
Milwaukee ; and the Osborne compa
nies', .entered this organization, this
monopoly . automatically was born.
Existing competition was wiped out.
"The International Harvester in its
first year had the following percent
ages of the Nation's business in the
varied lines: 98 per cent of the bind
ers; 95 per cent of the corn binders;
92' per cent of the mowers; 85 .per
cent ot the rakes, and 40 per cent of
the twine. " - ';
-"And there is nothing in the evi
dence to show that this situation has
changed in ten years. . Of course,
there has been some competition.
"-. -- ' c Same Old Story;
"We got that story in the tobacco
case and In numerous other trust cas
es. ut the facts stand out that we
have more than 90 per 5 cent of the
great harvesting companies of the
country under one company.
j "No "man who looks on "that picture
can fail to see that this concern had
the absolute . power to fix prices.- Of
course, there existed no desire to get
100. per cent of the business.. A cer
tain amount of competition keeps
down public sentiment and helps in
other ,ways.;
"Intent is wholly immaterial. Phi
lanthropic" purpose cannot be pleaded
as justification for the result. When
uthese defendants purposely entered
into this organization intosthis con
spiracy, they - laid thenlselves liable
to be (charged with guilt for the re
sult." v - .--w- . ...
: John P. Wilson, during his summing
up for the defense predicted a price

firms. v . Y- . . ...
"Whether thi s plea- is granted or
not," said Mr, Wilson, "there will be
in the next, few years competition in
these lines - such as 'the world ' has
never seen. A war. is now oh, not
only in a gri cultural - implements 1 but
in harvester lines, which is going to
be the fiercest ever known.".

MYSTERY AT SEA.
Crew Abandoned-Craft for No Appar
ent Reason. '
New Bedford, : Mass., Nov. 5. The
faded . yellow pages of the:; log books
of the New Bedford whaling fleet fail
to record a mystery of the sea more
baffling . than that presented today
when the revenue . cutter Gresham
towed into port the Gloucester fish
ing schooner Annie M. Parker, which
was. picked up Monday with all sails
set, her hold filled with fish and with
out a soul on board, 60 miles-east of
the Nantucket lightship. There is ho
trace of any of the 19 men? composing
the schooner's crew.
In its details the mystery recalls
the case of the Boston brig Marie
Celeste, which was found . abandoned
at sea some 40 "years ago. The fate
of her crew 'never was known.
The British . - steamer Astrakhan,
bound from New Yortrfor France,
sighted the Parker Monday, drifting
with : all sails -' set. . Boarding the
schooner, officers of the steamer found
four of the dories missing.: A few
burnt pieces of bread . was all the food
in the , galley indicating that' before
leaving the crew had hastily gathered
together a supply -of provisions.
The schooner - was not leaking and
was1 in perfect condition,, except for
the loss of onetjib. Salt fish, valued
at about $8,000,Yfilied the hold,
A prize crew from the - Astrakhan
took charge of the Parker and turned
her over to the Gresham. Parker's
owners said she sailed from Sydney,
N. S., for her home port October 26th,
after a fishing trip to New Foundland.
She was in command of Capt. Vincent-Nelson,
a veteran Gloucester
skiper and was manned by' a, crew of
18., The owners could offer no expla
nation of the abandonment of the
vessel.

wide differences among members ot

was opposed by . Senators Owen; Pom

' Senator. Owen was plainly agitated

point will be taken up again tomorrow.
Talk of a possible Democratic cau

today and members of the committee
took the position that a caucus would
not hasten the disposition of the ..-bill.
Administration -Senators, however,
looked more dubiously than ever upon
the situation following today's vote by
the committee, and some action on
the part of the White House and Sen

RIOTING GENERAL
FN INDIANAPOLIS
State Governor May Order
Troops to Scene for the
Protection of Lives
MANY ARE : HURT IN FIGHT
Strikebreakers Injured in Yesterday's
Fighting Were Sent to Chicago
No Prospect for Immediate
Settlement of Trouble.
Indianapolis, Nov. S.-An effort to
resume street car traffic which has
been tied up since Friday night by a
strike," resulted today in the serious
injury of seven strikebreakers and two
policemen and the destruction of a
car. : ' ' .
A crowd of several thousand per
sons, niany of them armed with bricks,
surrounded the car and "prevented
progress while a downpour of missiles
from the roofs and windows of build
ings along the route .jeopardized, the
lives of the strikebreakers and po
lice. Indications tonight were that the
militia would be called out tomorrow.
A, committee of the civic and commer
cial organizations presented a request
to Governor Ralston asking for troops
and , stating the organizations would
share the responsibility for the action.
While Governor 'Ralston would not
state what action he would take he
intimated that his reason for not call
ing the troops at once was that they
could .not be mobilized before tomor
row morning and that he feared the
announcement that the militia had
been called for .tomorrow' would, result
in a night of lawlessness.
The strikebreakers injured in to
day's rioting who are able to travel
returned: to Chicago tonight. , .
A'- number of strike sympathizers
wentvback to the wrecked car later in
the day to remove it from the tracks
and to block further traffic on the line.
They were dispersed-when a riotYcaU
bfpught 50 policemen to the spot. An
other, death due to the. strike resulted
when Thomas Carleton, whd; was shot
at the Louisiana street barn' riot,. died
today. .
A new proposition from the striking
motormen and conductors in which
they waive recognition of the newly
formed union, was - submitted to Gov
ernor Ralston by W.' G- Beatty, presi
d ent of the Central Labor Uniqn repr
resenting the men tonight. The -employes,
however, still demand , higher
wages, shorter hours and arbitration
of-all future differences and that the
men shall have a yearly contract.
; Governor - Ralston presented the
new proposition to Robert I. Todd,
president of the company, who. ref us
ed'to comment on the terms.
