That armed Intervention By the United
Stated Irf" Mexico,' Would be regarded with
acute disfavor lrr'Germany, Is the unavoid
able Inference to be drawn from the re
markably Incisive and drastic expressions
of opinion here. The charge that the
I'nlted Hlatea la again seeking an occasion
to strengthen lis control of both the
Americas to the complete exclusion of other
powers, both politically ana commercially.
Is a feature of the press comments.
Not only among ardent nationalist and
Jingoes, hut In quarters, where responsible
Judgments are to be expected, the most
cynical interpretation! are placed on the
American government'! motives, sincerity
and peace projects.
"One. ttt'Og ia certain: President Was
must abdicate as CaMro and Zelaya abdi
cated to make room fur a man acceptable
to Washlnrfton."
The Mexican situation Is used elsewhere
a an argument to show the hollownevs of
American, peace projects.
"Tha arm of American Imperialism, " It
la declared, "Is again being raised."
Prof. Hans Delbruck, the historian,
bluntly characterizes the Tart-Grey peaceJ
plana as Inslnrere.
"Shall tha great German nation," he In
quires, In an article published, "lei itself
be permanently shut up within. Ita conti
nental boundartea and look on while Eng

Callaway Able to
Give Wall Street
Game Some Points
As Member of Cotton Brokerage Finn,
Young Man Alleged to Have Taken
Cash and Faded Away.
NEW YORK, May J4.-(Speclal Tele
gram.) Wall street, learned today with
surprise that there is a hew way to beat
a broker and get away with tha money
without being criminally under the law.
Tha new method la simple; for all that Is
necessary Is to be made a partner of a
broker, arrange to be entrusted with the
banking of the 'ffrm' money and then
take as much as you want and fade away.
There can be no arrest, for the co-part
nerahlp laws will take care of that.
It remained for Ernest E. Calloway to
discover this means to tt the Wall
street game. Calloway for several yeara
had been a confidential w.Vuinef of Free
man sV Co., cotton broker. Callo
way' mode of procedure waa a almple
one, according to Mr. Freeman.
"Calloway had charge of the banking
end of our business, and as such could
draw, on our accounts as ha -liked," said
Mr. Freeman. "He would draw the money
out of one bank and then charge It up as
having been deposited jvlth a bank or
trust company where he had no account.
Calloway came to us about six years ago.
He la 32 years of age. He has bee on
the street for tha past sixteen yeara and
was looked upon as one of the most
promising young, men. In financial circles.
Ha waa transfer elerk fn J..; P.' Morgan a
office, and he had a wide circle of friends
when we brought f In) here--nd mada him

"F.ven my attorneya do not know
whether there ia any redress for ua. Wa
have not called in -the police and have
merely posted Calloway on the cotton ex
change as the rules require. The part
nership law Is a complex one, and It
looks as If our only redress will be In a

An: Investigation Injo. Callgway' way
of living and habit haVe Inclined asso
ciates to believe that Instead pf waating

money and slipped away.-.

He suffered Intense agony for the two

predicted.
Davenport has been sick for some time,
and his mother left him apparently asleep
early Wednesday morning. At 10 o'clock
she waa called to his side by cries of "Ma,
ma, come here;" he obeyed and stood
by his bedside.
"I have been dead, mother," he said.
"And I came back to tell you It waa aU
right. My soul Is saved.
"I went to sleep and I awoke In the
dark. Oh It was so dark. I staggered for
ward and suddenly I came Into a great
light. It made me happy, but the light
began to fade and I prayed that It might
stay. The light still faded. I prayed that
I waa willing to Buffer the rest of my
life If I might at last come back to that
light, and they told me I could return for
two days. Then I returned."
The man then fell back on the bed. His
eyea closed and he slept. He awoke that
night, suffering great agony. For two days
the tlma allotted to himself to live he
lingered, whtla his body was racked by
hooting palna. Ha even got up, dressed
himself, and went down to the (treat Fri
day. He called his mother to him this
morning. Hla eyes were glaay. "I am
going now," he said. "Call Harry and our
neighbor, Mrs. Kallenbach; they must be
hera before I gd.' '
Mra. Davenport ' obeyed. Tha party
gathered around the. bedside' and Daven
port In - a voice ' scarcely ' more than ' a
whisper, said:
"I am going, mother back back to tha
great light
"I'm not dying I died once I'm only
going back th light promised."
The faint voice faded and he waa dead.
