President's Order Expected to
Have Important Bearing on. -
the Situation.
Washington, D. C, July 23.
President Wilson has determined
no faction in the present Mexican
revolution shall obtain arms or
ammunition from the United
States, and that neutrality must
be obesrved in its strictest sense.
This was the interpretation of
the neutrality laws decided on by
the President today after confer
ences with Senator Bacon and
Representative Flood, chairmen
of the two Congress committees
on Foreign Relations.-
Although the Mexican rebels
have been getting no arms here
tofore, today's developments
mean the Huerta administration
will be deprived of the privilege
previously given to the Madero
Government and .the" United
States will treat all sides alike in
the present dispute.
The situation was precipitated
by the repeated complaints of
the Constitutionalists and their
sympathizers in this country that
if the United States did not vir
tually assist he Huerta Govern
ment by selling to it ammunitions
jf war a termination of hostilities
would be possible.
Sentiment in favor of a new
policy grew in Congress to such
an extent that today a canvass of
the Foreign Relations commit-
tees in both houses showed there
would be little objection to repeal
ing the joint resolution of March
14, 1912, giving to the President
discretionary power to prohibit
cxportations of arms or munitions
of war to countries where domes
tic violence exist, but permitting
him to sanction the sale of war
supplies to the legally constituted
Government of any such country.
Blow to Huerta'a Plans.
For the present, the Adminis
tration will issue orders to its
agents everywhere to keep arms
from entering the rebellion-torn
country.
This will interfere materially
with the plans of the Huerta
forces, since orders for large
supplies of arms and ammunition
are said to have been placed re
cently with firms in the United
States. - .
The President canvassed other
phases of the Mexican situation
with Senators Bacon and Flood,
who said later no action of any
kind or pronouncement of pqlicy
was likely until after Ambassador
Wilson had conferred twith Ad
ministration officials here. '
Acting. Secretary Roosevelt
conferred on the situation with
Rear Admiral Frank E. Bcatty,
commander of the Fourth division
of the Atlantic fleet, who has just
returned' with his flagship, he
Minnesota, from a tour of duty
in the Gulf of Mexico.
SOUTH CAROLINA MADE
A DISTRICT .
Washington, D. C, J'-dy 24
President Wilson today issued an
executive order' making South
Carolina a separate in tcranl rev
enue district and taking it out of
the eastern part of North Caro
lina. - '
Owing to the passage of a law
last year limiting the service to
63 districts, it was necessary tol
consolidate ne iwo iuw uisuiuj
into one before creating a separ
ate district for South - Carolina.
The order goeVlnto effect upon
the appointment of the new col
lector. ' 1 ; v,. ;V '
Although the order cut in the
district under the supervision -of
the eastern North Carolina col
lector in half it will not reduce
his salary, as . no increase ' was
made about the $4,500 when
South Carolina was added Octo
ber 1 last. ' ' , u .
Lamar Goes to Court
Out Is Riot Arrested
Mystery in Forwarding of
"Wolf's" Indictment to the
Capital
Washington, D. C, July 23.'
After notice to his counsel to pro
duce him in court, David Lamar,
the "Wolf of Wall Street," today
appeared before Anson H. Taylor
United States Commissioner, to
face a Federal indictment found
acainst him in New York and
forwarded here for service. La
mar had expected such action and
was prepared to give bond.
For some reason, however, no
warrant was issued for his arrest,
not even the seals were broken on
the indictment, which was sent
back to New York. Lamar went
free..
Mystery shrouded the whole
proceeding. No hint was given
of the charge in the indictment,
nor was any cause assigned for
the failure of the Government to
act. United States District At
torney Wilson said :
"There is nothing pending
against Lamar in this jurisdic
tion'; that is all I can say,"
It was asserted the only mctli
od by which Lamar can discover
the nature of the charge is by go
ing to New York and surrender
ing himself. This he has no in
tention of doing for the present,
being engaged here on work for
the Anti-Trust League.
Lamar continues to be amused
rather than perturbed at the pro
ceedings. . Day ; and night he
haunts the Congressional Library
poring over records and financial
manuals and arranging data for
possible suit to be brought to re
cover the $83,000,000 alleged to
have been taken irregularly from
the stockholders of the Union Pa
cific Railroad.

CARNEGIE BOMB. PROVED
ONLY TO BE JUICY
. CHEESE .
New York, July 24. The mys
tery of the "bomb" sent to An
drew Carnegie yesterday in care
of the secretary of the Carnegie
corporation was solved today. It
was a juicy cheese enclosed in a
smell proof case of zinc, a Scotch
cheese, according to an expert
called into conference after the
bureau had definitely determined
that the "bomb" contained neither
nitro-glycerine, dynamite or other
deadly explosives. On 1 vacant
lot officials of the bureau of com
bustibles fired -four bullets from
a safe distance through the box
before they opened it.

Washington, D. C, July 24.
Repeal of the neutrality procla

arms to Mexico is being consid

next step in the Mexican situa
tion. Conferences between Pres
ident Wilson and congressional
leaders were planned today for a
discussion of the proposal, to
which many leaders have given
their approval.
A partial canvass of the house
and senate foreign affairs commit
tees led those interested in the
move to believe that the prohibi
tion against the shipment of arms
could be repealed with little dc-
iay- -v . : ; 4
The repeal is proposed on the
ground that there is no recogniz
ed government in Mexico.
