A 8ALOONLE88 UNITED 8TATE8
BY 1920
AN ANTI-AMERICAN FEELING
Anonymous Letter Exposes Plot to
Blow up American Embassy
To Eitabllsh Foreign Na
tional Banks.
Lob Angeles Saturday was a tln
of conferences among tll0 thousand!
of delegates of tho twenty-sixth Inter
national Christian Kndcavor convetf
lion. Twenty dirTerent meetings wore
held, t tho most Important of which
Hcv. Daniel A. Poling of ColuinhiiH, O.
national superintendent of tho temper
nnco and christian citizenship dlvl
slon of tho united society of christian
endeavor, outlined a program for the
next two years. It is expected that hit
plan wlll.be adopted as tho official
policy of the organization. Tho fea
turc of Dr. Pollng'a plan was tho work
to bo done In tho campaign which has
for Its object a "saloonless United
States by 1920." Ultimately, ho said,
ho hoped there would bo a federal con
stitutional amendment prohibiting the
manufacture and salo of liquor.
American Banks In Foreign Countries,
Washington. Tho establishment of
branches of national banks In foreign
countries Is an Important provision
contained in tho administration cur
rency bill. Taken In connection with
the provisions of tho tariff bill, which
greatly Increaso American trade with
foreign countries, It Is expected that It
will bo ono of tho greatest nvenues
opened for tho expansion of American
capital. This Is tho view, nt least,
taken by many members of tho bank
ing and currency commltteo of both,
house and senate, ns well as by olll
cials of tho stato department who
have for a long timo been advocating
some such measure on tho part of
congress.
Peelings Against Americans Increases.
Mexico City. The antl-Ainericnn
feeling In Mexico has reached a high
tension nnd for a timo it was believed
that Ambassador Henry I.ano Wilson
and Consul W. O. Shanklin would bo
forced to leave tho city. At a lato
hour Saturday tho government had
succeeded. In preserving order nnd tho
streets of the capitnt were quiet and
the editorials in tho evening papers,
which of late have been strongly an.
Ingonlstlc, wero extremely mild. Am
bassador Wilson has received an
anonymous letter telling him of a plot
to blow up the American embassy.
Tho ambassador immediately com
munlcntcd with tho minister of for
eign affairs and tho police department.
Tho general feeling against Americans
has been steadily Increasing during
the past few dnys and many promi
nent Americans still remaining in tho
capital are preparing to leave
Currency Bill Endorsed.
Washington, D. C. Tho ndmlntstrn
lion plan for a government bank, con
trolled by a federal reserve board to
administer the entire banking system,
provided for In the (ilass currency bill,
was endorsed practically without
amendment by tho democratic mem
bers of tho house banking and cur
rency committee. After Bomo discus
sion they agreed on tho proposed sal
'lary of ten thousand dollars, n year for
'each member of the board. Tho bill
was amended, however, to provide
that the four members of tho board to
be appointed by tho president should
be distributed geographically through
out the country and to, rcqulro that
they should devote all of their time to
their duties on tho board.
Many Elks on Parade.
Rochester. N. Y. Ten thousand
Elks, it Is estimated, participated in a
parade Friday in connection with tho
forty-ninth reunion of tho grand lodge.
They came from every city of size in,
this country, from Juneau, Alaska, and
Honolulu. Even Manila had a lono
representative, who rodo in an auto
mobile. Probably Last Reunion.
London, O. What will In all proba
bility bo tho last reunion they will
ever hold was begun hero Thursday
by a handful of veterans of tho Mexi
can war. The old soldiers, who look
upon tho veterans at the recent Get
tysburg, reunion ns mere youngsters,
plan to spend several days hero in re
newing acquaintances and swapping
yarps of the stirring days when they
followed Wlnfleld Scott nnd "Zach"
Taylor In tho-campalgn below tbo Rio
Grande.
Washington. Postmaster General
Burleson has appointed Miss Jesslo A.
Vnchon ns olllclal "olovator boy" In
the federnl building at Dellingham,
Washington. Her appointment fol
lowed n protest from Senator Polndox
ter against the refusal of tho depart
ment to confirm her temporary ap
pointment. Tho Washington senator
pointed out that Miss Vachon is a
western girl fully fapablo of perform
ing tho duties of tho position, and tbjit
as Waphlngton Is a woman suffrago
state, Hip woman vntcrs demanded
representation In office.
TO TRY NEW SYSTEM
TARIFF BILL NOW READY FOR
ATTACK.
CURRENCY BILL PROGRESSES
No Changes of Importance Made In
Committee on Banking and Cur
rency Bulgaria Anxious
for Peace.

Washington, D, C Discussion of
tho Underwood-HlnimotiH tarlfT revi
sion bill, with Its lengthy free list,
grently reduced rales on all commodi
ties nnd Its new system of ad valorem
instead of specific ratcB, will actually
begin In tho senato this week. Tfio
fipening nssnult upon tho democratic
jnensuro will bo made by Scnntor .Mc
Cumber of North Dakota, who will
speak on tho agricultural schedule.
Tho flnanco commltteo hns agreed
that ho should bo given tho floor
ahead of the formal opening because
ho was obliged to leave Washington
tho first of tho week. Chairman Sim
mons, speaking for tho democrats at
tho finance commltteo meeting, snld
ho thought debate on tho bill could be
concluded In flvo weeks, nml Senator
Smnol of tho minority agreed with
him, declaring that tho republicans
hnd no Intention of purposely prolong
ing tho discussion.
Hostilities Thought to Be at End.
London. Having Tailed in her haz
ardous coup, IJulgarln Is now showing
hersolf nuxlous for peace. No formal
armistice' has yot been arranged, but
It Is bellovetl hostilities nro virtually
ended. It Is feared, however, that tho
settlement of penco conditions will
prove a long task, many new elements
having entered to complicato matters.
Bulgaria's decision not to oppose
Rumania's occupation of Slllstrla and
the strip of territory she desires re
moves ono difficulty. But other de
velopments,, such ns tho Greek occu
pation of Karala, to which Dulgarla Is
expected to offer bitter resistance are
calculated to lead to troublesome
negotiations, especially as both Sorvia
and Greece, on tho outcomo of their
campaign, will bo crrtaln to demand
possession of tho territory thoy occu
pled previous to tho wnr. Russia Is
already taking stops In tho Balkan
capital to arrange for a cessation of
hostilities.
PROGRESS ON CURRENCY BILL
Mo Changes of Importance Made In
Committee.
Washington, D. C The democratic
majority of tho house commltteo on
banking nnd currency hnB made fair
progress on the administration cur
rency bill. No changes of substantial
Importanco wero made and a general
disposition to get together as quickly
as possiblo was evidenced. Commit
tee members said that at tho present
rnte consideration of tho bill might
bo completed by the mlddlo of the
week, to bo followed In all probability
by a democratic caucus of tho house
with a view to binding tho house dem
ocrnts to the measure as It comes out
of the commltteo. Tho bill Is being
considered In executive "conference."

To Be Clear of Coffee Troubles.
"Husband and myself both had the
coffee habit, and finally his stomach,
and kidneys got In such a bad condi
tion that he wbb compelled to give up
a good position that he had held for
years. He was too sick to work. Hla
skin waB yellow, and there didn't
seem to be nn organ in his body that
was not affected,
"I told him I felt sure his sickness
was due to coffee and after some dis
cussion be decided to give it up.
"It was a struggle, because of the
powerful habit. Ono day we heard
about Postum and concluded to try It
and then It was easy to leave off
coffee. ,
"His fearful headaches grew less
frequent, his complexion began to
clear, kidneys grew better until at last
he was a new man altogether, aa a re
sult of leaving off coffee and taking up
Postum. Then I began to drink It too.
"Although I was never as bad off as
my husband, I was alwaya very ner
vous and never at any time very
trong, only weighing 95 lbs, before 1
began to use Postum. Now I weigh
115 lbs. and can do as much work aa
anyone my size, I think."

A big cup requires more and Borne
people who like strong things put in a

large supply of cream.
