Villa and Zapata, and make clear to them the position of the T'nited Slates Government with respect to the protection of foreigners and their interests. rnmirit Settlement Is treed. The length of time the President's envoy will spend in Mexico has not been determined, nor has any announce ment been made as to whether he will see Carranza or Villa fir3t. Eventu allv he will po to Mexico City, there to "operate with the Brazilian Minister, who Is caring for American interests, and John It. Silliman, also acting for this Government. It is understood that while Mr. West will point out the growing necessity for a permanent settlement of affairs in Mexico, ho does' not take any plan or suggestions Jrom the United States, lie has lived a number of years in Mexico and is understood to be gener ally familiar with the situation in the southern republic. Thousand Wounded Sent North. News of the military situation in Me-rico reaching the State Department todav was brief. Further reports of the defeat of the Carranza forces at Monterev were received, with the in formation that about 1000 wounded soldiers have been put on trains and sent from the scene of the battle to the border. Work on the fortifications around Tampico "is proceeding cner Feticatlv." according to a Department telegram, in anticipation of an attack bv Villa forces. The gunboats Zara goza and I-ibcrtad have arrived with additional Carranza troops from Vera rKnrinue C. I.lorente. Washington representative of General Villa, re ceived a telegram from the latter say ing ho personally captured with his forces a station just in front of Guada lajara and expected to retake the city from tho Carranza forces within an other day or two. As soon as this city is taken Villa intends to concentrate on Tampico. .planning not to move on Mexico City until tho north is com pletely under bis control. ' Capital Farina; Famine. In the meantime the famine con ditions in Mexico City are growing seri ous. The following report of the situ ation there was issued tonight: "There continues to be a shortage of the bread supply and it is said that there recently was noticed a bread line in which there were about 300 waiting their turn. According to reports, the Fcardlv of bread and water is greater than it has ever been before. Some people are eating bread made from bran. On February 8 the American Club served corn bread to the needy. The authorities still hold out. the promise that they will bring about an Improvement In the situation. It is said that as there was no flour on hand on the morning of the Sth. a large but quiet demonstration was made in front of military headquarters by men ol the working classes, protesting against the annulment of the flat currency. It Is said that their protest was fruitless. "it is reported that the Mexican Telephone Company was taken over by the local authorities in Mexico City last Siiturday and the management given to striking employes of the company." RHYS PRYCEIS KILLED Soldier of Mexican nevolntion Falls, in Battle in France. SAN" FRANCISCO. Feb. 10. Letters received here today relate that C. Iihys I'ryce. a Kritisli soldier of fortune, who c.un-d international notoriety during de Lower California campaign of the first Madero revolution, was killed in France, fighting with the allies, at the battle of the Oise. I'ryce was at one timo under arrest in Ixs Angeles, charged with murder, :ion and robbery by the Mexican gov ernment. He defeated extradition pro ceedings, only to he arrested again, charged with violating the neutrality regulations of this country. Again he won freotlom and went to Canada, where he later enlisted. LONG FILIBUSTER ENDED rl!ll'!-1 .it Fimt fare.!' ander. Adamson. Flood and Padgett. It is understood that the programme ten tatively acreed on is as follows: "The Weeks bill, already passed in i he Senate, to be taken up in the House ;is soon as the sundry civil bill is dis posed of, everything after the enacting clause to be stricken out and the Gore sub-ship purchase bill added, and the resulting measure to be passed as luiekly as possible by the House under a special rule. This bill, with the pres tige given by passage in the House, to ho then taken up in the Senate, and kept before that body until the end of the session, if necessary. In case of no action before the end of the session an extra session to be called on March 3. lloue Opposes Extra Session. This programme was objected to by representative Flood and some other Mouse leaders, who advanced the idea that since an extra session apparently was inevitable, the shipping bill should be laid aside temporarily, the appropriation bills passed by both houses and an extra session called for the consideration of the shipping bill. The House leaders were far from en thusiastic over the prospect of an extra session, and Representative Kitchen, ho is to be majority leader of the next House, said after seeing the Presi. dent that he believed sentiment in the House generally was against it. The confident belief that the fili buster against the bill could be contin ued, until March 4 and that it would be impossible to pass the measure be fore the expiration of this Congress was given by Senator Norris as bis yeason for voting to break the long grind. 'I am not finding fault with the Senators," he said, "for doing what under the rules, they have a perfect right to do. But. these filibusters are increasing. It is 'unfortunate that we cannot decide any great issue without a test of physical strength. It is a relic of barbarism. Both sides of this Senate have conducted filibusters, and if the situation were to change tonight the Democratic side would begin a fili buster on this very measure." Xorrla Would Limit Debate. Senator Norris read his proposed amendment to the Senate rules which would limit debate. "We stay here night after night," he said, "and are dragged out of our beds to answer a rollcall when there ar three or four Senators in the chamber. It is ludicrous. It is foolish, except that the consequences axe some times serious and the practice Is en sraired in bv serious men. This flood of talk has no object but to kill time and kill the members. I don't know what day of the month it Is or wnat day of the week It Is. "I know, tnougn. it is reijruary, anu it soon will be March. You know and I know and God knows that with about one-half of the members of the Senate determined to continue this filibuster they can absolutely prevent a vote on this bill until after March 4." Senator Norris said that while he favored the ship-purchase bill he could not see why all of the time from now until March 4 should be wasted In a useless effort to bring the measure to a vote. "I understand that it has been an nounced from the White House," Sen ator Norris continued, "that if this bill is not passed there will be a special session of Congress soon after March 4. I assume that this is true. If this filibuster continues until March 4, we would have to have an extra session, anyway, to pass the appropriation bills. So there is nothing to be gained by continuing this fight and nothing to be lost. "When the special session comes, as come it must, I will support this ship purchase bill heartily." BREAD IS UP IN NEW YORK MAYOR CALLS QOSFERBXCE TO ms ccss SITUATION. Agreement With Large Dealers De sired mm Example to Smaller Ones. Ferkina Blame Farmer. NEW YORK, Feb. 10. llotelmen, bakers and prominent merchants met today at the call of Mayor Mitchel to discuss the rise In the price of bread in this city and to determine what measures can be taken, if any. to meet the situation. The price of bread was increased from 6 to 6 cents today by many bakers, and the prices of rolls, pie and. cakes were raised, in propor tion. ' While the conference reached no de cision as to Just what could be done, the opinion was expressed by many that it might be possible to secure an agreement with the big bakers and large dealers in tho city that prices should be maintained at the figures obtaining before the increase, with a view to setting an example to the smaller Interests. Jn the course of the discussion the representatives of one of the largest baking companies of New York assert ed it was impossible for any baker to buy flour at the present prices, make It up into bread and sell it at a profit for 5, or even 6 cents. George W. Perkins said that it was the farmer who was holding his wheat for a $2 price; that it was being held at the original source on account of the war and the higher price that export wheat might bring. "Your committee on food supply is trving every day to educate the people on substitutes." Mr. Perkins said. When asked what substitute ho had for wheat Mr. Ferkins replied that he attended a dinner recently where oatmeal caked were served. "And they had the money to buy bread had they so wanted." he said. FUDGE COSTS NURSES' JOBS Strike Threatened In Newark Hospi tal After Four Suspensions. NEWARK, N. J.. Feb. 4. About 50 nurses at the City Hospital threaten to strike because four other nurses were suspended indefinitely for infraction of the rules. They all returned to duty after Superintendent Charles E. Talbot talked with them about the respon sibility of their duties. Miss Mary F. Mason, head of the training school, received an anonymous letter the other day. She made a tour through the wards and found six nurses gathered about a table partaking of hot coffee and toast and fudge. The nurses are allowed to have milk and bread during the morning, as they have their breakfast at 6:30 A. M. and do not get their lunch until 1 P. M., but making candy or cooking while on duty is forbidden. Four of the culprits were suspended immediately. They are Miss Anna Kelleher. Miss Elizabeth Allen, Mies Edith Botcher and Miss Catherine Fleming. The latter is alleged to have smuggled in the chocolate and sugar. Two other nurses .Hiss ousan Jiune and Miss Rose Fernicola were de prived of their caps. Miss Clara Hoff man, who was doing scout duty, was put back in the pink uniform of the girls who are still on probation. When the other nurses heard how their associates had been treated a general strike was rumored. A com mittee of 00 nurses waited on Miss Ma son this morning and discussed their grievances. They finally agreed to put their charges in writing and have them submitted to the hospital authorities. Meanwhile the nurses will remain on duty. PLUMBERSAGCUSED OF TRADE BOYCOTT Iowa Federal Court Forces Trial of Charges of Violat ing Trust Law. RESOLUTIONS ARE . READ Conventions Declared to Have Ke fnsed to Buy From Concerns AVho Sold to Kivals De fense Denies All Wrong. DES MOINES. Feb. 10. Judge John C. Pollock, in the case of the 3 master plumbers under Indictment for viola tion of the Sherman anti-trust law, surprised both counsel for the'Govern mcnt and defense by ordering the trial to proceed immediately in the United StH3S District Court here today. So rapidly did the court work that by adjournment tonight the Jury had been completed and sworn, statements of Claude R. Torter. District Attorney, and L. C. Boyle, of counsel for tho de fense, made and the first witless placed on the stand. W. Emmett Crosby, of Philadelphia, who has been executive clerk of the National Association of Master numb ers for the last 20 years, was the first witness called by the Government, but was not questioned to any extent be cause of the time consumed by B. F. Welty, of the prosecution, in reading Government records in the case. Defense to See All Documents. The defense gained its second point In the hearing when Judge Pollock ruled, in answer to a motion filed Tuesday, that all documents to be In troduced by the prosecution shall be turned over to the defense for inspec tion. In his opening statement to the jury District Attorney Porter declared the prosecution would show that the de fendants had confpircd in a general way against plumbers' supply houses and jobbers by carrying on a system of boycott against the concerns who have sold amterlals to firms or per sons not members of the National as sociation. He told briefly of the Bal timore. New Orleans, New York and Cleveland resolutions said to have been passed at conventions of tho associa tion, and which said in substance that the association would not patronize any concern selling to independent plumbers. Mr. Porter asserted that he would show an instance where a machinist was unable to buy material to plumb his own home because he was not a member of the National association. Kducntionnl Motive Asserted. Attorney Boyle, for the defense, de clared that the defense would show that the National association was not formed to bring about a "restraint in trade." as Is alleged, but that it was formed for the purpose of "educating and benefiting the general public, as well as the plumbers themselves. "We will show that there are 200 plumbers who are members ot the as sociation in Iowa," said Mr. Boyle, "and that there are 600 plumbers in this state who are not members of the as sociation, but who have been able to procure all the material they wanted. CONSOLIDATION BILLS IN (Continued irom First Page.) CATHOLIC ALTARS ROBBED Negro Said lo Have Confessed Thefts at Baltimore. BALTIMORE, Feb. 4. Three rob beries, two in Catholic churches and one in a Methodist Episcopal church, were partly cleared up with the arrest of John T. Burns, colored. IS years old, who told the police of the Western dis trict he was from Chicago. In all three cases articles used in church services were stolen. Burns told the police he had been directed in his crimes by a white man who promised to divide the proceeds of the thefts with him. St. Peter's Catholic Church, Holiins and Poppleton streets: the Catholic Church of Fourteen Holy Martyrs, Lombard and Mount streets, and Beth any Methodist Episcopal Church, Lex ington and Calhoun streets, are the churches that were robbed. From St. Peter's the thief took a chalice and an ostensorium: from Fourteen Holy Mar tyrs a white surplice, bordered with lace known as an alb, a long .black silk robe called a cope, and an image of the Christ Child, and from Bethany Methodist Episcopal Church two roll books from the Sunday school and a certificate that hung on the wall. The articles stolen from St. Peter's were valued at $250. The chalice was highly prized because it had been given to St. Peter"s 50 years ago by the late Monsignor McColgan. who died 15 years ago. The articles taken from Holy Martyrs' Church were valued at J50. All were recovered by the police at a house on Amity street, near Fayette, where the negro Burns was found by Sergeant Charles Burns and Patrolman Henry Flack. cation consisting of five members ap- ' . . . i . . .-. nna Tlom pointed oy me each Congressional district and one . .u oto at lurce.

A bill covering the last recommenda tion was introduced by Senator Bar rett today. The bills presented comprise a defi nite programme and probably will be received with considerable favor In the Senate. How the House will view them, considering that they are distinctly Senate measures, is problematical. It is an undeniable fact, however, that the bases for consolidating departments have been given more study by the Senate members than by the House members of the joint committee. Both Senators Barrett and Day have been working on the problem for months. The House members candidly admit their unfamiliarity with many of the details presented, although they have Indicated an earnest desire to co-operate on every practicable plan that would promote economy and at the same time preserve efficiency. Roads Now Attracting. Within the last few days members deeply interested In good roads legisla tion have been canvassing the situa tion in the House and Senate with re spect to probable action on numerous bills now pending. It is now admitted that it will be a difficult task to win tho good will ot the legislators from the farming oistricts to obtain further state aid for good roads. The con flicting influences at work are the same as In the past. One element is committed to trunk lines, while an other, representing much of the rural sentiment, wants roads from the farms to the railroad stations. The Grauge and the Farmers' Union are opposing the Sam Brown bill. No. 249. which, on the other hand, has the indorsement of the so-called good roads "booster." The farmers' organizations look upon the bill as one that holds up a nurse as an incentive to counties to concentrate their expenditures on through highways at the expense oi the local market roads. Boosters" Kndanger Bill. As to the Coovert bill. House bill 216, which permits cities to expend money on roads outside of their corporate limits, the farming interests say that counties and districts should have tho same permission. This measure may be defeated simply because the "boost ers" refuse, to accord to tho country districts the privilege they desire to obtain for cities. The suggestion has been mado also that road districts and road supervisors be abolished. This is objected to in the rural districts. While abuses un der the system are admitted, it Is also true that the district plan is precious to the farmers, as it gives them home rule on road construction. They tax themselves as high as 10 mills for road work in their own districts. It develops also that the present highway law is unsatisfactory to many sections of Oregon which reap no ap parent benefit from the state high ways yet contribute to their construc tion. However, the farmers concede that some roads must be built by the state. There may be a chance to raise the present quarter-mill levy to one-half mill, but some concession to gain the good will of the country districts is es sential. There is a. movement now on foot to appoint a committee to revise the existing road code and report to the next Legislature. RUSSIANS BEAT GERMANS (Continued From First Page.) Prussia.

Important developments in the East are generally expected here at an early date. Rumors have been re peatedly circulated in the last few weeks that the hour of a big victory was at hand, without, however, ma terializing into fact. There is reason to believe that the Germans are now in sufficient force to attempt a decisive stroke at a chosen point. The Emperor and General von Falkenhayn. chief of staff, have re turned to Berlin from a visit of in spection to the east fronts. Major -Moram. tne mimai i the Tageblatt, who is virtually the only Berlin critic to venture an independent verdict on the military situation, speaks of "an impending decisive bat tle" in the east. He expects that an, attempt will be made to break the Rus sian lines and cross the Vistula, and discusses the possible length of time Warsaw will hold out arter mat, al though it is not clear that the German commanders lay decisive weight on the immediate possession of tne city and fortress. In case of success, the Aus trian military representative here is confident that Przemysl will soon be relieved for a second time. It is known that the German forces in East Prussia and north of the Vis tula, which for months have been con tent to remain on a strategic defensive, have been considerably strengthened and that a fairly general .engagement is now in progress. ' Field Marshal von Hindenburg reports that this engage ment is "progressing normally," a phrase strongly reminiscent of the bul letin which appeared just before the announcement of a general Russian de feat on December 17. 'AEROPLANE' CALLED FANCY Representative Suggests "Airplane" and "Shed" for "Hangar." WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. Represent ative Slayden, of Texas, in the debate In the House on the military appropri ation bill said that the words "han gar" and "aeroplane" are too fancy for the every-day American. He therefore moved an amendment to the section of the bill dealing with air craft by substituting the word "shed" for "hangar" and word "air plane" for "aeroplane." Mr. Slayden's amendment was de feated. BOY IMPALED BY SLED Lad In I.cap Lands on Runner and May Die of Injury. SCRANTON. Pa., Feb. 5.
