FEDERALS TRY TO SURROUND (Continued from Pag One.) property, the State Department up to late today had received no official in formation concerning reported indig nities to other foreigners by Mexican rebels at Chihuahua City. Secretary Bryan said that there had been no inference with Consul Letch er's telegrams by the Constitutional ists and that so far as he had been able to learn, no threats had been made against any of the foreign con suls. The secretary announced that on ac count of a break in the wires com munication between Chihuahua and Juarez, American Consul Edwards at the latter place, had decided to avail himself of the services of G. D. Car rothers, consular agent at Torreon, who arrived at El Paso today to go back to his post by way of Chihuahua. Mr. Carrothers will carry any com munications which Mr. Edwards has and will assist Mr. Letcher at Chihua hua until the situation is normal there. No instructions to Consul Letcher beyond those sent on Saturday as a result of representations by the Span ish ambassador here have been dis patched by the State Department. The telegram to Mr. Letcher was described by Mr. Bryan as containing the same sort of representations that has been made to General Carranza and Gen eral Villa on previous occasions, vig orously pointing to the importance of respecting foreigners and their prop erty. Mr. Letcher was also instructed to urge that no summary action be taken with reference to Luis Terrazas, Jr., the wealthy land owner, reported to have been taken forcibly from the British consulate by Villa's men. Information with respect to the sit uation at Chihuahua is meagre though telegrams from the Spanish refugees now at El Paso have been received .at the State Department. Before addi tional protests are made to Villa, word will be awaited from Consul Letcher as to what actually took place when the Spanish subjects left the city. A request from the consul at Aca pulco for the protection of foreigners there, was referred to Rear Admiral Cowles, in command of the American ships on the Pacific coast of Mexico. GUARDING NEGRO FIENDS. Militia in Georgia Protect Three Ne groes in Jail House. Waynesboro, Ga., Dec. 15. A com pany of State . militia is on guard at the local jail tonight to prevent threat ened mob violence against three ne groes accused of murder. The three are George and William Hart and Robert Parschall under arrest for the Killing of Mrs. Seth Irby, wife of a farmer near Wrens, Ga. A large crowd is gathered about the jail. Firearms have been taken from many of them and a number of arrests made. Mrs. Irby was murdered in the pres ence of two little daughters Saturday by three negroes who came to collect a 50 cents debt. According to reports here she was seized by the hair and her throat cut white the two children begged for her life. The three negroes held were arrest ed yesterday and rushed to Louisville, Ga., to prevent violence. Today a mob gathered about the Louisville jail, and the prisoners were brought here. Many people were arriving late tonight from Wrens and Louisville to augment the crowds about the jail here. This crowd frustrated an attempt to spirit the prisoners away to Augusta for safekeeping. ARSON SQUAD ACTIVE. Destroy Property Valued at Over $400,000 Message to King. London, Dec. 15. The suffragette arson squad today set fire to a lum ber yard at Devonport and destroyed property worth over $400,000. The lumber yards and considerable adjoin ing property were fire-swept. Suffra gette liteature and placards bearing words, "revenge for the arrest of Mrs. v Pankhurst," were scattered about. The scene of the fire is the spot where "General" Flora Drummond and other militants awaited Mrs. Emme line Pankhurst on her arrival in Eng land from the United States on De cember 4th when the suffragette lead er was arrested. The militant suffragettes appealed straignt to King George on behalf of Mrs. Pankhurst. A telegram sent to King George reads: "In Your Majesty's name, a noble woman is being done to death in Hol loway jail. We call upon Your Majestv to stop this crime before it is too late."

The European financial industries, he said, were as anxious to keep conditions stable in this coun try as in Europe and in 1907 America was able to draw large quantities of gold from Europe. Got Gold Before. "We were able, to get gold enough to make up for the vast quantities that were hoarded in this country," he said. "I believe gold was hoarded in New York for the criminal purpose of breaking the stock market. "That is not to be charged against the banker; it was ruinous to the banker. But there have been certain men in New York who have used the bankers as they would use pawns on a chess board. "They have played that game for the last time. This bill takes out their hands the power to make or break the financial and industrial fabric of the country." Senator Lane, of Oregon, who did not join the Democratic caucus on the currency bill, tonight announced his intention of supporting "the Hitchcock amendment providing for government control of the regional bank scheme. He argued that . the proposed banks were to be public utility institutions and should be under government man agement. A defense of the bankers of the country, particularly those criticised during the debate by Senators Stone and Owen was delivered by Senator Weeks. "Because bankers are Advising their customers to go slowly," he said, "is not an indication that bankers are try ing to injure or breakdown business. It is the function of a banker to advise his customer against undue exten sion." Hitchcock's Bitter Dose. The fight for government control of the proposed new banking system, led by Senator Hitchcock and the Repub lican members of the banking and cur rency committee, failed tonight when the Democrats on the motion of Sena tor Owen, tabled the Hitchcock amendment by a vote of 39 to 36. The amendment would have placed the control of each Federal reserve bank in the hands of the government bv authorizing the central board to appoint five of the nine directors. The defeat of this amendment made vir tually certain the adoption of the Owen plan which would leave the con trol of the regional banks in the hands of the member banks that compose them. Senators Hitchcock and Lane joined the Republicans in voting against the motion to table the public ownership amendment. Immediately after the vote Senator Clapp attacked the Dem ocratic leaders in strong terms for having cut off debate on so important a feature of the currency bill. . The Democratic attitude in favor ing bank control of the new regional banks was declared by Senator Clapp to be a complete reversal of the pre vious attitude of the Democratic party. He said the officers of the regional reserve bank in New York would be named by Wall Street and that the ramification of that Wall Street influ ence would reach to every corner of the country. RENEWS INVITATION. To Nations to Participate in San Fran cisco Exposition. Washington, Dec. 15. Secretary Bryan tonight renewed the American government's invitation to the nations ol the world through their diplomatic representatives here to participate in the Panama-Pacific International Ex position. The occasion was a dinner given by the Secretary of State to the diplo matic corps, members of the cabinet, members of the Senate, members of the House of Representatives, and other officials of the government, to meet Charles Moore, the President of the Exposition company, in order, as Secretary Bryan expressed it "that you might hear from him about the progress that is being made in the carrying out of the plans of this great enterprise. More than a hundred guests sat around the banquet table in "the hall of the Americas," at the Pan-American Union building. Mr. Bryon was toast master, and those present included all the members of the diplomatic corps, Secretaries Daniels, Houston, Wilson, Lane and Redfield; Attorney General McReynolds, Postmaster General Bur leson : Majority Leader Underwood antd Minority Leader Mannn, of the House, and the entire delegation In Congress from California. The speakers were Secretary Bryan Mr. Moore, the French ambassador, M. Jusserand, and Secretary Daniels. Secretary Bryan emphasized on be half of President Wilson the adminis tration's interest in the exposition. He made known that President Wilson would, berore long, recommend an ad ditional appropriation, suitable for the erection of an appropriate building to have the exhibits of the Fe'deral gov ernment at the exposition. "Everything that can be done by any member of this administration," an nounced Secretary BryaD. "will be done to make the exposition the suc cess that it ought to be, and that it must be. We are celebrating by this exposition the opening of a waterway i oeiween tne two oceans, and if there is anything which should draw forth the interests of the nations of the I world, certainly this event can." j Mr. Moore gave a comprehensive portrayal of the progress being made on tne enterprise, and said the exposi tion would be ready on the minute to open on February 20, 1915. Ambassador Jusserand expressed his sympathy in the exposition and pre dicted that it would be a success. Sec retary Daniels spoke of the great naval pageant which is to join in celebrating tne opening ot the Panama canal, and proceea to tne exposition. More than fifteen great natins. he said, have ac cepted this government's invitation to participate. BEGIN FRANK CASE. Appeal Taken to Georgia Supreme oourt Last Resort. Atlanta. Ga.. Dec. 15. Attorneys to day began a battle for the life of Leo M. Frank before the Georgia Supreme Court. Convicted of the murder of Mary Phagan here, last April, and esntenced to hang, Frank's plea for a new trial was denied by the lower courts. It was expected that argu ments would be completed tomorrow. i ne new trial motion is asked on tne grounds that jurors who convicted Frank were prejudiced. SETS NEW RECORD. H. M.

MOBmC STAB, WlIiMlKeKTOK, N, C. TUESDAY, pflOBMHEB 36, 11913 WILSON RESENTS (Continued from Page One.) James Aleshire, U. S. A., the highest officers of the Carabos, for an expla nation. They promised to give all the iniormation desired. They would not discuss the incident for publica tion. Secretary Daniels, who made a speech at the banquet, but left early to attend the Congressional recep tion, said afterward that none of the "stunts" such as the bringing in of the "peace fleet" composed of the bat tleship models, U. S. S. Friendship, U. S. S. Fellowship, and U. S. S. Pif fle" had taken place while he was present "Whiie I was there," said Mr. Dan iels, "the thing I thought was particu larly offensive was the song, "Damn, Damn, Damn the Insurrectos." Had I known it was to be sung I would have asked that it be eliminated, or I would not have gone." . The chorus of the song which was sung with great zest by hundreds of army and navy officers present was as follows : "Damn, damn, damn the insurrectos, Cross-eyed Kakiack Ladrones, Underneath the Starry Flag, Civilize 'em with a krag, And return us to our own beloved homes." The word "Ladrones" is the Spanish for "robbers" and "Krag" is the army abbreviation for the Krag-Jorgensen rine. Song in Bad Taste. "It was in bad taste to sing that song," said Mr, Daniels. "It is not like the Gridiron Club or other organ izations outside, which are indepen dent of the government. When I heard the song I turned to Justice VanDeventer, of the Supreme Court, who was sitting beside me, and said: 'This will be resented, if it goes to the Philippines.' He said with a laugh, 'Better omit the 'if. I suppose the officers intended merely to have a jolly time, but they went too far. If they had stopped to think, I am sure they wouldn't have done it." It was pointed out to the Secretary that the song had been sung at many Carabao dinners in previous years and had originally read: "Damn, damn, damn the Filipinos." "Army and navy officers have no business singing either version," said Mr. Daniels. "One naval officer said that President Taft had heard the song at a previous dinner and had not objected. I told him that it ought not to have been sung after the November elections of a year ago as the whole Philippine policy of the government has changed, this administration mak ing every effort to give independence to the Filipinos when they are ready for it." In Behalf of the Order. Dr. Joseph M. Heller, secretary of the Washington Corral of the Cara bao, issued a statement tonight ex pressing regret on behalf of the mem bers of the order, particularly those who had to do with Thursday night's dinner, that any feature of the pro gramme had given offense. "The members of the order feel sure." Dr. Heller said, "that the high officials present at the dinner must have observed the spirit in which things were done, and must realize, as they were intended to realize, that there was no effort to reflect on any one, nor upon anything. "I am sure that officers of , the army and of the navy would be1 the last men in the world to ridicule the ad ministration and if they were so in clined a public banquet would never have been selected as the place for such manifestation. The Old, Old Song. "The song 'Damn. Damn, Damn the Insurrectos', was inspired 15 years ago, during the insurrection in the is lands, in the heat of a vicious cam paign and amid hardships and priva tions, am it was sung by the first volunteers that went to the Philip pines and has been sung every yeear since. As the words indicate, the men wanted the insurrection over and to be returned to their 'own beloved homes.' As it stood originally the song read 'Filipino' instead of 'insur recto.' "Three years ago it was recognized that conditions had changed and so the wording of the song was altered so that there would no longer be a fling at the Filipino. "The motion picture, 'The Governor and Colonel', was first produced in Manila in September, 1913, and sent here for the Carabao dinner. It sim ply depicts the experience of every man that served in the Philippines in the early days showing the difficulties and perplexities of running down the wily and dangerous insurrectos who used to be so prevalent. Other fea tures of the evening were produced entirely in a spirit of fun and not in one of harmful ridicule." STILL IN NEW YORK. Zelaya Has His- Trunks Packed and Ready to Hike. Washington, Dec. 15. General J. Santos Zelaya, erstwhile NicaragUan dictator, still is in New York, "But witn bis trunks packed, ready to sail This information was furnished to Solicitor Folk, of the Stete Depart ment, today, by counsel for Zelaya, when inquiry was made as to when Zelaya would start for Barcelona, apam, in fulfillment of the promise he gave Mr. Folk when the Nicaraguan government dropped proceedings for the former President's extradition to Nicaragua on charges of murder. Gen eral Chamorro, Nicaraguan minister, called upon Solicitor Folk today to ask if Zelaya nas lived up to his agree ment to quit the country without plot ting against the Central American Re public. Solicitor Folk sent word to the exiled Nicaraguan not to gorget to de part. Officials said tonight that if Zelaya did not leave the United States soon, his case would be re-opened.

Mr. Hilles dwelt at length on the proposed recognition of primary laws and the proposal to change the basis of representation which would lead to a reduction in the proportion of delegates from Southern States. Discussing the pro posed reduction, Mr. Hilles pointed out the success Of the Republican par ty in several States, south of Mason and Dixon's line, and summed up the argument of the opponents of the plan. -:;!' "They," he said, "argue" that if the nartv imnrnil tho irpoat hodv Of Re- publicans denies representation in its convention .to the colored men who are disfranchised by an arbitrary, mil itant and unconscionable Democracy, it will have wrought a wrong of far reaching continuance, that its slogan of 'just and equal representation' will be a misnomer, and that it will have given countenance to a damnable and despotic system." "It may not be irelevant to re mark," he added, "that if President Wilson's proposal of a Federal pri mary law should be enacted into a constitutional law, the five perplexing problems, which I -have endeavored to state in an impartial manner, would disappear. Even so the Republican party, I fancy, continue to hold Na tional conventions, for surely the right of assembly is still left to us as private citizens until the constitution is repealed." Washington, Dec. 15. William A. Barr, of Richmond, for many years in newspaper work for Virginia pa pers, both as part owner and Washing ton correspondent, died here today af ter a short illness. He was 38 years old. , ; " NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Bijou Motioin Pictures. .' Grand Theatre Motion Pictures. Atl. T. amTB. Co. That Guardian. Academy of Mosic Talking Pictures. C. W. Polvogrt Co.
