WOMAN WHO SHOT her
husband New York lawyer
and friend of Bryan.
WASHINGTON. March J 4. A tel
egram from D. A. Richardson, Doug
las, Aril., Raring Mexican troops
were massing across the line from
Douglas, pointing out that the Co
lumbus massacre could easily be re
peated In the Artiona town and ask
ing for "help before it wai too late,"
was made public today by Senator
Ashurst of Ariiona.
Senator Ashurst aald he knew
Richardson and regarded his Infor
mation aa authoritative.
"I am giving ttale telegram for
pnbllcatlon," said Senator Aehurst.
"and will not even aubmlt It to the
senate, because It would be useless.
I am tired of trying to get anything
done."
Tet Telea-rass.
Richardson's telesrats follows:
"Mexican general nae fortr plecea of
artillery and 1,000 cavalry stationed ten
blocks rrom center of Douslas. 8ven
thousand cavalry sis "" ouWl
ftouctaa. "Ws bars only l.KiO Infantry.
cavalry P" of rtlll,,' ur
troops stationed two mtUe east of Doug
las. Am reliably tnfomed that it would
take one hour for our troops to reach
Donates ta ease of nlahl attaclt. Our
array forbidden by administration from
making any active defense preparatlona
for fear Mealcans might misconstrue such
preparation. Mexleana have entrenched
against Vnlte4 States aide and hava
barbed wire entanglements. We have no
entrenchment. Mexican troops could
easily repeat Columbus massacre In
Douglas on much larger ecale snd return
to Mexico with small less. All of these
statements oaa be verified by our army
officers bore. Help If you can before
It to too late."
Conflicting reports cf the massing of
Carransa troops on the border reached

reported that they fo-jnd no massing of
troops in the northern sections.

BERLIN. March . Via London,
llarch ? It la understood that the
Reichstag wilt take a recess Friday or
Saturday until the end of April to give
eommitteea opportunity to - discuss the
budget snd Us bills. This adjournment
will postpone the expected speech of
'Chancellor von Bethmann-Ilollweg en
the nation- fotelgn policy. It alao may
.mean the aide-tracking of tha debate on
the submarine campaign.
It was evident at today's session that
the conservatives were restive under the
agreement to avoid discussion of the sub
marine issue in open seeslon. Count von
Wtstarp said he was willing t? adhere
Vo the agreement on condition that the
matter be discussed alt the more thor
oughly In committee. Another conserve
tlve speaked desired to mention the sub
marine question, but met with a shout
from the house that It waa against tha
agreement. ,
Kven then he persisted, whereupon the
president remarked bluntly: . "Tou may
not proceed on that subject."
Tha conservatives found an outlet for
their feelings in repeated eulogies ef

Excessive Loans
to Politicians
CHICAOO. March !. Owen T. Reeves.
Jr., president of the Drovers' National
bank and formerly government bank

William Lorimer, charged with conspi
racy In connection with tha failure of

bank, aald that In examining the I
Salle atreet institution he found what
tie regarded as excessive loans.
Mr. Reeves said that ha found loans to
W. J. Cooke and A. J. Harris, prominent
in local politics, snd to Charles E, Erb-
stein. Erbsteia waa counsel for Lee
O'Nell Browne, Illinois state legislator,
who was tried and acquitted on a charge
ef bribery In connection with the election
of Lorimer to the United States Senate.
"The Crbsteln loan had been in the
bank for some time," said Mr.e Reeves,
and X did not think that It was a good
one.
T. H. Paynter, former United itatea
senator from Kentucky, owed HO, wo,
which was an unwarranted loan because
ha was not worth that much money.
Then there were some ethers to firms
which were approaching or did ro Into
bankruptcy."
The bank reserve was dangerously
Itw," continued the witness. "Instead of
being 25 per cent as the law required.
It waa only 104 pet1 eont on the day of
tha examination."

or tha first senatorial Investigating com
mittee, which Inquired into the election
of Lorimer to the United States senate.
Health Commissioner Cunnell
makes an appeal to the people of
Greater Omaha to begin at once a
vigorous clean-up campaign.
"I am with the governor on his
proclamation for a clean-up week,

we should start now to get our mu
nicipal house in order," said the
commissioner.
Files are beginning to appear. A
woman in the Han acorn park dis
trict reports she has dealt mortal
blows to three fliea tola week. Dr.

the less files there will be to swat
next month and tha months to come.
Make Omaha an undesirable place for
fliea," remarked the chief custodian of
the health of the city.

A few hints from the health com
missioner; "Clean up alleys and back yarda and
front yard.
"Ransack basements and cellars for
rubbish and old material.
"Clean-up. paint-up, brush-up, sweep
up. "dive aa much thought to tha interior
of homes aa you give to exteriors.
"Lst In the sunlight and tha fresh
air."
Dr. Connell has Instructed his Inspec
tors to start serving notices on house
holders who maintain accumulations of
rubbish and ashes In backyard's and al
leys. These notices are served as a fule
in extreme eases and cover flagrant vio
lations. Tha doctor believes more good
can be done by stimulating a spirit of
ctvlo pride throughout the city. He ssks
the co-operation of the publto school
teachers to the extent of Interesting the
children In this clean-up campaign. Im
provement dub are requested to take this
up with members.
'A little effort on the part of every
body would make Omaha shine like a
