WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. After a con
ference with President Wilson today,
Secretary Bryan declared the United
States was In no way being pressed for
action In Mexico and Issued the follow
lng statement:
"The statement which appeared In somo
of tlfe morning papers to the effect that
European governments are bringing pres
sure to bear on tho United States to com
pel agresslve action In Mexico Is entirely
without foundation."
Administration officials were pleased
to observe tho reports from Mexico City
that a reform element In tho Mexican
chamber of deputies was planning to sub
n It peace proposals to both factions In
the revolution. So far as is known, the
policy of the American government will
be to await the outcome of negotiation)
of this oharacter.
Tho chief difficulty in negotiating
peace, It is admitted by Mexicans of ah
factions, Is the selection of a non
partisan provisional president. The sug
gestion was made today by some promi
nent Mexicans here that on account ot
the scarcity of men of ability, who haa
not taken part in the Mexican disputes
and changing politics, It might be ex
pedient to select one of the veteran diplo
mats now representing Mexico in posts
abroad. Men of such character, it was
pointed out, had no political affiliations
and would give the situation the benefit
of their experience in fields of diplomacy.
Stnor Corrvarubias, at present minister
to Russia and Senor Gilbert CrespJI
Martinez were being mentioned.
ItoiiHc Will Itenr Ambassador.
Tho houso foreign affairs committee
today decided to ask Ambassador Henry
Lane Wilson to appear and outline his
views on Mexico. The ambassador may
meet the committee.
Chairman flood', setting forth the views
of "the administration, as he has secured
them fronjr President Wilson and "Secre
tary Bryan, mado It clear that tho ad
ministration was determined not to
recognize the Huerta government and
government and Secretary Bryan con
templates ah attempt to get valid, bind
ing election. That It might proceed Im
mediately and Intelligently If the necessity
for leglslatlvo action should arise, the
committee decided to inform Itself ac
curately as to the conditions Sn Mexico.
Tho determination of the committee
to call Ambassador Wilson developed
considerable difference of opinion on
whether his testimony In view of the
wide variance between hs views and
those of the president and Secretary
Bryan might not prove embarrassing to
the administration.
Some members of the committee which
Is strongly inclined to glvo the presi
dent and the Stato department a free
lw- the situation, believed Am
bassador Wilson should not be called
.... . ..uc.o.ary Bryan and the president
could be consulted.
With that In mind, Chairman Flood
will confer with the secretary and presi
dent and an attempt may bo made to re
consider thlsNictlon.
IV15x Dins Mnr Not Co to Japan.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. l.-Fex
Wax, candidate for president of Mexico,
who arrived here Wednesday, presum
ably on tho way as special Mexican en
voy to Japan, Bald today that he might
not go to Japan.
"Certain circumstances have developed."
he explained, "that make It Impossible
now to say what I shall do. I do not
know where I am going, or when I am
goin."
General Diaz made the statement after
he had received a cable massage from
the City of Mexico. Whether those mes
sages referred to the reported decision
of provisional President Huerta to recall
him from the proposed Japanese mission
he declined to say.
Wax and his party visited Mount Lowe
this morning.
Late today Chairman Flood telegraphed
Ambassador Wilson withdrawing a pre
vious request for his appearance before
the foreign affairs committee tomorrow
on the ground that his appearance was
"unnecessary and undesirable under ex
isting circumstances and conditions."
Secretary Bryan today asked the house
to appropriate $100.0) tD care foT ueflttute
Americans In Mexico, who may find It
ni-ctxsary for their safety and well bs
lng to leave and who are unable to pay
for their own transportation.

GIRLS TO L0SE THEIR JOBS
V
Druggists Say They Cannot Keep
Girls Under the New. Law. '
MEN MUST TAKE THEIR PLACES
Do ot Object to the Nlne-llonr
Clnnsc, tint to the Hnte Agnlitat
AVorklnK After Ten O'clock
nt MU.
A great many girls employed as
cashiers and salesladies In the drug
stores of Omaha will lose their Jobs on
account of the nine-hour law that haa
recently gone into effect, according to
A. B. McConnell of tho Sherman-Mc-Connell
drug stores. Mr. McConnell says
the law will likely bring about the dis
charge of 100 girls employed In tho
various drug slorcs of the city.
It Is upon the clause forbidding the
working of girls after 10 o'clock at night
that tho difficulty will hlnse. The Sher-man-McConnell
drug stores have been
working a shift of girls from morning
until about 2' or 3 In the afternoon. Then
another shift Has come on and remained
on duty until midnight. The last shift
did not work moro than nine houre, but
the law provides that females shall not
work after 10 In the evening.
"No, of course," said Mr McConnell,
"we won't hire a young man to come In
hero at 10 o'clock at night and relieve
our cashier. Wo will not hire a man to
come In here and sit at tho cash register
In her place for two hours, from 10 to
midnight. If we are paying the girl her
wages for this work. The result is that
I will have to let tho girls gc and hire
young men to do their work. I can very
easily get young men from the business
colleges who will be glad to get the Job
In the evening to make expense money.
1 can keep them till midnight, and that
Is what will have to be done."
Mr. McConnell believes that If a test
case were made on the law, drug stores
could be exempted from the provisions
of the law under the clause that exempts
public utilities. "I don't believe I care to
test the case, however," ho sold, "as I
can Just get rid of my girls and hire
men, but I feol there is no reason why
tho telephone company Is any moro en
titled to tho privilege of working the
girls at night than Is a drug store, which
la open for tho public good until mid
night." "I worked against the hill at tho legis
lature last winter," said McConnell. "I
tried to show this phase ot it to some
of the legislators and they set me down
as an Insidious lobbyist. The girls
now that see they are going to lose their
Jobs are all wrought up over it, and are
as sore as can be. But I can't help
them now. I don't know why this law
should be applied so strictly in the
cities and why no attention should bo
paid to It on the farms. I don't believe
there Is any exemption for girls of tho
farms. It would bo Interesting If someone
would watch this phase' of It and would
cinch those on tho farms who work
girls over nine hours there. Such a pro
cedure would raise such a howl from
those In the farming districts that they
would iell ther representatives In the
legislature "what they thlnl about the
law. Here In the drug business, however,
we are not complaining of the nine-hour
provision, but ot the provision that makes
It Impossible to employ a girl after 10. at
night." . .
Sleuths Believe
Experts Got Away
With BigGem Haul
NARRAGANSETT PIER, N. T.. July 31.
The Jewels stolen from tho summer
homes of Charles Cary Rumsey tmd John
J. Hanan are being sought In New York,
Boston and other cities where big trans
action In precious stones are not uncom
mon. Large dealers lr diamonds havo
been cautioned against dealing with
strangers who have Jewelry of great
value for sale.
This move is taken to Indicate a belief
that the thieves have left town with
their booty and have covered tholr Imme
diate tracks. Although the police through
out the country have been asked to
watch the pawnshops, the detectives are
pretty well satisfied that the robberies
are the work of an expert gang who are
too shrewd to do business with pawn
brokers. The mysterious automobile eeen
on Ocean road Saturday night Is tho most
Important clue.
When the detectives began work on the
Hanan case they declared that It was an
"Inside Job." But when a day later the
Rumsey cottage was entered the police
modified their views and thought they
saw the hand of the experienced thief.
Corn Rises Two Cents
on Chicago Market
CHICAGO, Aug. 1. Excitement in the
corn market whirled pricts up more than
2 cents above yesterday. This made the
advance equal to about 7 cents in the last
week. f
Reports were at hand Indicating thttf
the corn crop as a whole had Buffered
a loss of 200,000,000 to 300,000,000 bushels
In the last month owing to damago ot
lack of normal amount of moisture. The
greater part of the injury has been In
Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Ne
braska, but the outlook for an enlarged
aiea of damage was today regarded by
many traders as dangerously threatening.
Davenport, la., sent word that all
drouth records for July had been broken.
Lees than two-tenths of an Inch of ratn
fell during the month and there were no
signs of any relief. Peoria, 111., dis
patches said corn In tho fields near there
was fired two or three feet up and wab
not likely to produce any grain, the color
of the tassels having become unnatural.

v This Cltr ni Colorado
Points,
v
Railroad men are of the opinion that
the decision ot the Interstate Commerco
commission, handed down Thursday, re
ducing freight rates between Missouri
and Colorado points will end the con
troversy and that the matter will not be
taken to tho supremo court. Going upon
this theory, rate clerks have commenced
work lining up the now rates that will
become effective September 15.
The decision was brought about on
complaint of tho Omaha Commerlcal
club, filed with the -commission In April,
1910. Later commerlcal clubs of other
Missouri river cities Joined and the fight
was continued a year or more before
a final hearing was had. The result .'s
a radical reduction In class rates and
amounts to about 8 per cent. The rates,
both old and new are here given and aro
on the basis of per 100 pounds to Colorado
common points:
Class
12 3 4 5
Old rate $1.25 11.00 $ .80 $ .65 S .CO
New rate 1.15 .92 .74 .60 .47
Reduction ... .10 .08 I M $To5 Tm
Most of the freight In tonnago goes
fourth and fifth. Including lumber and
coal, while merchandise goes In the first
and second class. The five classifications
Include about everything that Is handled,
so that on the whole about everything
handled by freight is subject to the re
duction. Heen Grem Victory.
El J. McVann, manager of the traffic
bureau of the Commercial club, considers
the recent rate decision of the Interstate
Commerce commission a great victory
for Omaha shippers. In the decision of
the "KIndel" case In 1910 the commission
reduced the Chicago and St Louis rates
to Colorado very materially. At the
same time In the Missouri river rat a rni.
these reductions were made from the east
to Omaha: First-class, 5 cents; second
class, 4 cents; third-class, 3 cents; fourth
class, 3 cents; fifth-class, 2 cents.
Comparing this to the following reduc
tions In Chicago's rates made In 1S10
25 cents, 20 cents, 15 cents, 12 cents and
10 cents and the St. Louis rate reduc
tion of 23 cents, 18 cents, 14 cents, 11
cents and 9 cents. Manager McVann
points out that Omaha shippers are re
lieved of the greater part of the load of
difference In freights that they have been
r wu u4 men own
pockets since the 1910 reductions were
rnaae for Chicago and St. Louis.

Hard'Goal Combine
WASHINGTON, Aug. l.-Irivcstlgatlon
of the, hard coal trust was proposed In
resolution today by Representative Mur
ray of Massachusetts. It calls on the
Departthent of Commerce, the Depart
ment of. Labor and the Interstate Com
merce Commission for Information as to
the ownership ot anthracite lands by
raidroada and 'to prices ot cost of pro
duction. In a satement accompanying tho reso
lution Representative Murray declared
facts In possession pt the departments
Would prove one of tho most completo
monopolies In existence.
"I have every reason to bolleve," ho
said, "that there now Is In the executive
departments enough data to show that
more than 90 per cent of the avallablo
anthracite and between 85 and 90 per
cent of the anthracite shipped yearly Is
In control of the seven railway systems
which form the only means of transport
ing the coal to tho market. These roads
are no bound together by common In
terests, by interlocking directorates and
by agreements of various kinds, that they
act as a unit In controlling the price of
anthracite coal."
The Department of Justice has been
conducting an Independent Investigation

Looking Out For
the Main Chance
No matter what theorists may say
about the pursuits and pleasures of
mankind, there Is one hard, incontro
vertible fact that wo must admit: We
are looking out for the main chance.
Have you ever stopped lo think what
the "main chance" is? It Is the op
portunity to make and to spend money
to our own greatest advantage.
It Is the greatest mistake to be
lieve a man rich because ho has a
good sized income; he may pa poorer
than the man with half the amount.
A man's flrancial status should be
Judged not by what he makes, but by
the relative amounts of his Income
and his expenditures.
Have you ever thought that with
an income of two thousand & year you
may be better off at the end of five
years than tho man with five thous
and? I. It Is all a question' of how wisely
anu now wen you use wnai you nave
that produces the ultimate result
If you feel that you have no bern
quite careful as you should be In
your expenditures, moke a practice of
reading THE IiER advertisements
nnd you will see where many a dol
lar may be saved by buying at the
right time and place.
