CHARGE MAY LEAVE TODAY Mexican Envoy at Washington Re ceives Intimation From Haerta to Use Own Judgment as to i; Leaving American Capital. WASHINGTON, April 23. Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the American Charge at Mexico City", has received his pass ports from General Huerta and is pre paring to leave Mexico City. Charge O'Shaughnessy 'eieyraphed the State Department under date of Wednesday night as follows: "Having been given my passports, 1 am leaving tomorrow night or Friday morning." The message was given out at 3:20 A. M. Huerta's handing of passports to Charge O'Shaughnessy was regarded as a most sensational development in the situation, and it was believed to fore cast a declaration of war on the part of Huerta. The giving of passports to & Minister or Charge d-Affaires in most cases, though not invariably, has pre ceded a declaration of war. Although the message from the Charge was not given out until 3:20 A. M., it was generally believed that it had been in possession of officials for at least three hours and that this was one of the subjects discussed when the President and Secretary Bryan were awakened and talked over the tele phone about the Carranza note. Charge Algara already had received an Intimation from his government that he was to use his own judgment about quitting Washington, and it is probable that when he learns of the prospective departure of O'Shaughnessy he also will leave. MEXICAN EN'VOY AWAITS CAL.Ii Iluertu's Representative at Washing ton Lives In Expectancy. WASHINGTON. April 23 Senor Al gara, charge of the Mexican Embassy here, having received messages from Mexico City early In the day Intimating that he might be recalled at any min ute, was in constant expectation throughout yesterday that General Huerta would notify him to call at the State Department and request his pass ports of Secretary Bryan. In anticipation of his recall Senor Algara spent yesterday in getting his personal effects in shape so that he could leave the city promptly. Several of his friends among the diplomatic and social set called to express their re gret at his expected departure. Mr. Al gara, who was first- secretary of the embassy, has been in charge of the mission for almost a year. CANADIAN'S TO BE PROTECTED Premier Announces He Will Take Hand in Mexican Trouble. OTTAWA, Ont., April 23. Premier' Borden announced in the House of Commons today that the Canadian gov ernment would take steps to insure safety of lives and property of Cana dians in Mexico during the present troubles.

Saa Diego and Imperial Counties Men aced by' 40O' of Hnerta'i Troops. AVater Supply Threatened. SACRAMENTO, April 23. In answer to numerous appeals for protection from residents in Imperial County and other localities near tne war zone. Gov ernor Johnson, issued a statement to night promising ' aid and announcing that he had ordered a force of the state militia to proceed to Calexico. The Governor also announced that San Diego County is in much the same situation and quoted liberally from a telegram received from its officials to day. They say that the water supply of San Diego and surrounding cities is threatened by the proximity of a force of 400 Mexican federal soldiers. According to this message. Major William C. Davis, commanding officer at Fort Rosecrans. also In command of troops patroling the border, is of the belief that state troops should be called upon immediately to protect the water supply, as he deems his forces inadequate to cope with the emerg encies likely to arise. In closing the telegram, D. K. Adams, Acting Mayor of San Diego, makes formal demand upon the Governor to call out three companies of local mili tia, the Fifth and Eighth companies of coast artillery reserves and the Third Division of naval reserves of the Na tional Guard of California for this duty. Adjutant-General Forbes ordered out the Fifth and Eighth companies of the Coast Artillery Corps and three divi sions of the Naval Militia in San Diego, comprising about 160 officers and men. tour companies of infantry, to be selected by Colonel William G. Schreiber as most available, and a ma chine gun platoon will be sent from Los Angeles to guard the Imperial County line. The San Diego company win patrol tne Doraer along that coun ty line. SAN DIEGO, Cal., April 23. Fearing that trouble with Mexico might precipi tate an attack upon San Diego's water supply, 30 men, armed with Krag- .lorgensen carnines, were rushed to Lower Otai dam. All are water de partment employes. commanded by James Muirneao, ana sworn in as dep uty constables.

The men are enthusiastic over the prospects of taking the field and a full attendance is looked for at the bat-' talion drills, which will be continued until further orders. The Armory recruiting office was crowded last night. Captain George A. White, chief recruiting officer, and Major M. B. Marcellus, surgeon in chief, were busy from 7:30 until 10:30, the hours during ' which enlistments may be made every night until all companies are recruited up to their full war strength of 10 each. "But few are rejected because of de fects," said Major Marcellus last night, "so that, at the present xate of about 30 men a night, it will not be long until the regiment will be on a full war footing." Several ex-regulars were enlisted last night. One of them has served through two enlistments in ; the Sixth Cavalry. Company B enlisted a crack trumpet er, a former member of the Twenty- seventh Infantry, regulars. There was a crowd in the gallery last night to see the battalion drill, while each company's headquarters was a scene of activity. i Captain K. W.

Booth for Senator Warmly Indorsed by Former Bourne Supporter at Republican Rally Recall Backers Discuss Situation at Meeting in Office of Ralph C. Clyde Germans to In vestigate Office Seekers News of the Candidates. "I HOPE that In future Repub-l licans'of Oregon will take more interest in the success of those whom they nominate at the primary election," said Joseph Hammersley. Deputy District Attorney, in a speech on "Republicanism" at a rally held by the Lincoln Republican Club in the Central Library Wednesday night. Let me Impress upon you the neces sity of .supporting loyally the success ful nominees of the Republican party," he continued. "If we spend our time and our best efforts to nominate the best Republican aspirants, and then vote for the candidate of another party, we have no right to complain. I be lieve that every defeated candidate should and will pull off his coat to work for the success of the ticket. 'As he has no opposition-in the Re publican party for the nomination, I feel that it is perfectly proper for me to say something at this time of R. A. Booth, Republican candidate for United States Senator. I have known Mr. Booth intimately for 25 years since I was a small boy, so I feel that I can speak with knowledge of his quali fications. "Senator Booth is a self-made man. He started in at the very bottom, and by his own efforts has become one of the most influential men in the af fairs of this state. For 25 years he was. president of the Booth-Kelly Lum ber Company, employing hundreds of men and let me tell you that in those 25 years there was never a strike by men in his employ. Mr. Booth is an aggressive man of constructive ability, of keen intelli gence - and broad sympathies, who measures up to the very highest stand ard required of a United States Sena tor from Oregon. "I want to assure you, . further, that Mr. Booth is a man of his word, who will, if elected, do all that he promises to do. The very fact that he is not opposed in his own party is conclusive evidence that he is considered the fit test man for United States Senator. What I want to urge upon you is the realization of the fact that though he Is unopposed in his own party primary, he will have Democratic and Progres sive opponents. The larger the vote he has In the primary, the greater will be the moral effect- And so I urge upon every one of you to get out and work for him, and vote for him in the prim ary election.' Mr. Hammersley was a warm sup porter of Jonathan Bourne, Jr., when Mr. Bourne was a candidate for United States Senator in 1912. H. Y. Freedman presided at the rally. After Mr. Hammersley's address. 15- mlnute talks were heard from seven of the eight Republican candidates for the Republican nomination for Gover nor. All but Charles A. Johns, who was unavoidably detained, were pres ent. Two of the candidates, ex-Governor T. T. Geer and George C. Brownell, also" spoke warmly in behalf of Mr. Booth's candidacy. "Mr. Booth should be nominated and elected by a large vote," said Mr. Geer. " 'Our- George,' his Democratic oppon ent, is very . slick. 'Our George' can take a drink, smoke a cigar and Is a good fellow. He is 'nonpartisan,' too, when he is campaigning. At other times he is a Democrat all the. way through. Who, for instance, is post master of Portland? A Democrat. Who Is United States Marshal? A Democrat. Is there any non-partisanship in the collector of customs? The collector Is a Democrat!" The other speakers included Gus C Moser, who made a strong party talk; A. M. Crawford, W. A. Carter, Dr. James Wlthycombe and Grant B. Dlm lck. Miss Helen Buckler entertained with vocal solos, and Miss Patten played the piano. Two rallies will be held toniglft by the Lincoln Republican Club; one at Lents and the other in the Sunnyside School. Backers of the Albee-Brewster-Dieck recall held a meeting in the office of Ralph C. Clyde, former member of the City Council and defeated candidate for Commissioner, Wednesday. After considerable discussion it was tenta tively decided to file the recall peti tions, which have been ready for more than a month, nest week. The hope of the recall backers, as ex pressed at the meeting, was to have a special election called a week or 10 days after the primary. It was argued that at such a special election persons In favor of the recall would turn out in numbers, while those opposed to it would for the most part remain at home. Under the Oregon constitution officers against whom the recall is in voked' have five days' after petitions are filed in which to resign; if they do not resign, then the election must be held within 20 days. Should the re call petitions be filed next week, as planned, it thus would still be possible for the Council to order the election held on May 15, the date of the pri mary. It was announced that Mr. Clyde will be a recall candidate for Commissioner against Commissioner Brewster. The name of George B. Cellars -was dis cussed as the probable candidate against Commissioner Dieck. Efforts are still being made, it was said, to get Robert L. Stevens to become the recall candidate for Mayor. In a telegram to The Oregonlan several weeks ago, however, Mr. Stevens made the positive statement that he would not, under any circumstances, run for Mayor. At a Progressive rally in the East Side Library Wednesday night the fol lowing Progressive candidates spoke: William Hanley, L. li. McMahan. Ar thur I. Moulton. A. H. Burton. Mrs. Lora C. Little and Wilber Henderson. Dan Kellaher presided. QUEEN RACE KEEN Change of Standings Shown by Latest Poll of Votes. .

Reports From Solicitor In Clarke Coun ty Encouraging and JV'evr Field Will Be Entered. Many attended a luncheon Wednesday at the Commercial Club for discussion of the public market question. About 100 of the various organizations met with the delegates from the granges and gave opinions as to the most de sirable time for the market, in .Yam hill street, between Third and Sixth, to open and also as to the details of the parade. By unanimous vote, it was decided that the market be known as CarroU Public Market, out of compliment to John F. Carroll, who has actively ad vocated public markets for the past five years.

The plans as displayed at a meeting of the Council yesterday show wagon spaces arranged on the south side of Yamhill street and stands on the north side.

DOES YOUR STOMACH CONTAIN A GLASSFUL OF ACID? mi OIT OK lOO DVSPKPTICS iiavi: I A NH Knot' ACID IX TIIKIIl STOMACHS. WHICH MIST BB NEUTRALIZED IK GOOD HEALTH IS TO BE MAIM TAIMED. If you held a teaspoonful of hydro chloric acid In your mouth for only a second you would not be surprised at Its burning and Inflaming: all the tissues; yet an eminent specialist states that 96 out of 100 dyspeptics go about with a glassful or more of this powerful acid in their stomachs, and then wonder what causes the burning and aching: and why they suffer the discomfort after meals. To put wholesome food into an acid stomach only increases the discomfort, because the acid mixes with the fresh food and turns it sour, making a lot more acid. That acid condition causes food fermentation, which irritates, dis tends and inflames the tender stomach llnlnie. and It Is not surprising that spe cialists say acid stomachs aro danger ous. This decidodlv dangerous and un comfortable condition can be overcome either by following a strict died or, and this is far easier and more quicklv effective, by taking a teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia in a quarter glass ful of water after meals to netitralir.o the cirtity. The latter course is much more satisfactory bcaitse it corrects the acidity ami banishes discomfort without any need lor diet, Adv.
