Washington. Nov. 25. (I. N. 8.)
The whole Mexican situation involv

fronts to the United States was the
subject of a lengthy discussion In the
cabinet today.
Secretary of State Lansing laid before
he members the latest information
wWch has come to the department in
the situation. The secretary, after the
meeting, declined to discuss what had
transpired or to state whether a def
inite policy was formed.
William O. Jenkins, the American
consular official, is still incarcerated In
a Mexican penitentiary, and his health
is said to be suffering from the confine

Washington today.

It Is pointed out that the note to
Mexico is by far the most pointed that
the American government has yet sent
to the neighboring republic and that
it will require firm backing if the Unit

Either Mexico will have to give this

SAN FRANCISCO IS

Tremor Lasting Full Half Min
ute Rouses Citizens From
Their Beds.
San Francisco, Nov. 25. (I. N. S.)
Portions of San Francisco were shaken
for half a minute early this morning by
an earthquake.
No damage was reported, though
sleepers were Jarred from their beds.
The quake occurred at 3 :04 a. m.
Officials of the government weather
bureau here declared that .the quake
was classified in. intensity as a "num
ber 4." Earthquakes are placed in
seven columns of intensity. No. 1 being
the lightest and No. 7 the heaviest.
The City of San- Francisco was barely
on tie "edge" of the quake. This is
assigned as the reason that no damage
has as yet been reported.
What v damage occurred along the
southern coast line is unknown, as no
reports have been received by the gov
ernment station.
The seismograph station at the Uni
versity of California recorded the quake !
as lasting half a minute between 3 :03
and :04 a. m. It was stated by offi
cials In charge there that the shock was.
purely "local," the probable cause of
which was a slip along a fault line in
strata for mat Ion running north and
south.
By "local" shock the officials placed
the radius, of the quake within 500 miles.

contention between the two major
parties will be.
Senator Johnson of California is un
derstood to be planning his race on a
;'stratght American" platform.
Some of the candidates who loom big
gest, such as Oovernor Lowden of .Illi
nois and General Wood, have not en
tered the battle of press agents here as
yet. the Inference being they are holding
back until the situation Is a little more
clarified.
WIL80W MAT E5TER RACE
As for the Democrats, the fact that
none has come Out for the candidacy
gave strength to the report here that
President Wilson. In spite of all reports
tt the contrary, has not yet made up
his mind with regard to making a third
term effort. With the treaty out of
the way, there is little doubt that. In
view of his illness and his weariness
of public life, he would be willing to
step aside and not even participate ac
tively in the campaign. But if the
treaty Is to be the issue, the president
may deem It his duty either to head
j the ticket which supports ratification
; or take a prominent part in naming
that leader and fighting for his election.
M'ADOO'S PLAIT SCESTED
W. G. McAdoo was seen today as a
bidder for labpr support If he becomes
a candidate, in view of his telegram
to Fuel Administrator Garfield, vigor
ously supporting the miners' wage de
mands and opposing the idea of letting
the public pay the increase. But Mc
Adoo has not avowed his intentions,

troubles than any other one thing.
SOLDIER PROBLEM DISCUSSED
J. C. Foulkes, in charge of the employ
ment of returned service men with head
quarters at the Liberty temple, said
1400 idle soldiers are in Portland today,
although 18.123 men have been placed
since March 23. He declared the war Is
not over and will not be until all are
placed. He made a plea for patience
with the men, many of whom, after two
years out of their regular employment,
are not quite up to their old standards
of efficiency. He deplored that many
good Jobs which would otherwise be open
to men, are now being held by married
women. Between 400 and 600 men apply
for work every day at tie temple and
between 400 and 500 are placed every
week.
Mrs. G. L. Buland. 'chairman of the
legislative committee of the club, dis

TOUCH OF MIRACLE

ern miracle man as he landed In New
Carlisle. Today hundreds came by
train and automobile for the magic
touch from those pudgy palms.
When Carr finally recovered from his
astonishment, he asked the young man,
who was again concerned about his auto
mobile, what else he could do.
"My name is Billy Mays, and I cure
folks with my hands," explained the
stranger. "I've always been doing it iro
a small way Just for fun, but I'm on
my way from Pittsburg to Long Beach,
Cal.. where all the cripples and sick
folks go, and I'm giong to make a reg

down, and I expect I'll have to stay
around here for a while until I get it
fixed. Know anybody around here who
wants to be cured?"
TILLAGE DOCTOR CURED
Carr did know of a friend who was
very Blck, indeed. His friend was the
village doctor himself. Dr. James Burke
Waynick. who had lived In the com
munity all his life and had helped bring
into the world half the younger pop
ulation in town.

asked.- The question was quits habitual
with him now.
Without removing any clothing what-:
ever, the young man applied his-hands,
rubbing gently, but firmly. A new spark
of light came Into the old man's dead
eyes. A smile came over his face,
"I can't believe it ; never beard of such
a thing," exclaimed the doctor. But he
felt like stirring himself. He felt thrilled
with a pulse of growing vigor. There
was a tingling sensation that permeated
like oil from the hands of the miracle
man.
JTOT A PROFITEER
After that Mays did not repair his
"jit." He sold it to a Junk man for 160
and went around visiting the sick people
in the town. Dr. Waynick took the
young man In his own home. He also
took the young man's wife, who had
bravely started out with him on the
long Journey overland to California. It
was she who had inspired him to drop
his work in the Toledo shipyards, where
he had been running a riveting machine
at 20 to $25 a day. He had often cured
nis iriciius. uul never mgugni 01 accept- i

There were so many people who
wanted to be treated in the vicinity of
New Carlisle that the business men of
the town got together and bought an old
brick mansion, which they now call a
sanitarium.
Architects are working on a plan for
a new hotel to accommodate the crowds
who are coming from neighboring sta
tions, and even from foreign countries
to be treated by the mlf&cle man.
Today outside the sanitarium was a
line of people, some with crutches, and
others being borne on chairs and stretch
ers. The reception hall was filled with
people sitting on small chairs. At the
left was a parlor, crowded to overflow
ing. ALL EYES SEEK HIM
By dint of edging and squirming it was
possible to enter the dining room through
the hall door. Six or eight persons sat
about the room. Throughout there was
an awe stricken bilence. In the center
of the room stood the miracle man.
Propped on a box on a chair in fttmt
of him sat a little girl about 4 years
old. Her eyes were half closed, and it
was" evident that the reasoning power of
the little brain had never fully devel
oped. The miracle man caressed the
head and moved his finger over the eye
lids. Beside him stood an anxious
mother, her face animated and beaming
with hope.
"How does it feel, darling pet?" 'she
asked eagerly, as a pleased smile spread
over the small features. The child did
not answer until the question was re-
,,eated several time
out with ranid eiar
Then she burst
out with rapid ejaculations :
Tickle! Tickle! Tickle!" she laughed.
A stylishly dressed woman crowded
her way into the room and whispered to
the miracle man and he helped the little
girl to the floor.
'"Please, you must come with me," she
pleaded.
Hut the miracle man calmly stepped
ovor to the next person in line and
helped him to a chair. He was very pro
saic. There was not the slightest evi
dence of mysticism.
"But. lady. I couldn't do It. You will
have to wait your turn," he said. "These
folks have been waiting for hours and
they'd bawl me out for fair if I left
them to see. your father."
From three to four minutes were spent
in laying hands on several men.
Their ailments were mostly rheuma

Among these are members of the

miles outside of New Carlisle. He was
afflicted with rheumatism.
The miracle man was interviewed
while he sat in a car massaging through
heavy clothing the body of Frederick
Itostiser of South Bend.
WHIPPED GUNBOAT SMITH
He said he was 29 years old and was
born on a farm near Clearfield. Pa. No
other members of his family had ever
shown signs of this mysterious power.
He had worked as a common laborer
and had also taken up pugilism. He
said once he had gained a decision in
a fight wih Gunboat Smith.
"And how does It work with you?"
Mr. Kostlser was asked.

Dr. Garfield was then careful to state
