the discussion, said there were other

would make the roads passable at all

pearance, and at the same time cost
less and make easier footing. He
alluded to a form of graveled street,
as used In most of the Eastern cities,
which Is kept in good condition by
being given attention in grading,
rolling, and draining once or oftener
each year. The item of caring for
the big area of pavement here, he
explained, was an Important sum

roads where a good gravel founda

with the drainage, were mentioned
as showing that this plan is practi

council were not Inclined to show
any toleration In this matter, and
favored enforcing the committee's
I orders. Councilman Clark said that
I many of the residents were merely
watching and waiting to see if the
'council would back up the committee
in this work and made a motion that
the marshal be instructed to have all
walks on which all proper and formal
notices had been given, put In by the

there was no doubt but that the
amount could be raised, as It con

Plotting Against Huerta.
VERA CRl'Z, May 5. That a plot
to overthrow Huerta Is hatching In
Mexico City Is asserted by nearly
every refugee. General Castro, who
had 14!) mutineers at .lojutla exe

take the city, hoping to share In tho

that this Is the result of another de
mand from the Mexicans to surren

that a second demand therefor had
been made. Reports that l-'linstoll Is
preparing for an advance on .Mexico
City are discredited.
Secretary of the Navy IlanlelB
staled that President Wilson had de

WASHINGTON, May 5. Ex-Secretary
of State Richard Olney, of Bos
ton, having declined the chairman
ship of tho Federal Reserve Hoard,
President Wilson is driven to a revi
sion of the entire list on which he
had tentatively decided. Besides Ol

understood to have chosen, were Paul
M. Warburg, of New York; Harry A.
Wheeler, of Chicago; W. P. Q. Hard
ing, ot Birmingham, Alabama; and
l)r. A. C. Miller, of San Francisco.
Warburg has accepted, and It Is con
sidered certain that Wheeler and
Miller will follow his example, and it
is thought that Harding will do so.
Tho presumption in administration
circles was that Warburg oi-Hardlng.
should the latter accept, will be given
the chairmanship. There Is much
speculation who will be selected for
the filth place, which is still vacant.
The men to whom the President
has offered iilaces are:
Richard Olney, of Boston, Mass.;
former Secrotary of State under
President Cleveland, to be governor
of the board.

nothing important was done.
Major J. M. Burke, the personal

says General Villa has proven a great
friend of tho United States In the

great credit therefor.
The moving picture drama, "Traf
