Object to Change Made 111 Handling of Art Work—McLean Building Is Going Up Rapidly.
A communication was received by the board of school trustees at the regular meeting Held Friday evening from the board of the Roman's Franchise league, protesting against the recent action of the board in "doing away with tlie office of director of art, taking the art work out of the grades and placing what work is done along these lines in the vocational department under the supervision of Herbert Briggs. Trustee Harkness said that he did not think that the protest stated the exact facts of the case and the communication was placed on file.

Griffith.

Trustee O'Mara said he had been informed that Contractor Stoolman was not using Terre Haute labor or Terre Haute brick. Trustee Greenleaf replied tjiat Mr. Stoolman had been fair to organized labor and that the .board itself had selected the brick to be used.

He delivered the judge to his delegation and then had the chair issue ordgrs that got such men as Bi-yan and Kern and Governor Glynn accredited delegates on the inside.
Indiana's One Good Time. The Indiana delegates and visitors who had sufficiently recovered from their feasting and frolics provided by the local committee of entertainment, made reservati.ons and left for home on Friday night, believing they had attended "some convention." "Tom Taggart" was a magic word. The Indiana senator was pointed out to all visitors, he was besieged for this and that and bore cheerily the grind of work that was loaded on him. He was among the earliest on hand and among the last to leave arid was busy until the last stroke of the gong.
Senator John W. Kern was conspicuously honored by Chairman James. He was on the important com mittees, was chosen to escort Mr. Bryan to the platform and generally Indiana came out of the convention with flying colors.

MEXICAN NOTE IS DELAYED BYJjEWTIEATS
Continued From P6ge One.
Chihuahua yesterday as having been transmitted to Gen. Pershing through Gen. Trevino, to start active warfare if American troops in Mexico are moved in any direction except northward toward the border.
Another bandit raid on Texas territory north of Brownsville last night. The attack on American troopers by Mexicans at San Ignacio Wednesday and,
Reports of warnings by the Carranza commander opposite San Ig nacio that American troops would be attacked if they crossed the Rio Grande, regardless of their purpose.
Additions to the note dealing with some of these late developments may be made it is said. Officials said the present intention is to dispatch ,the reply within a few days.
The Washington government will reaffirm its purpose not to intervene in Mexican affairs unless forced by continued and aggravated attacks on American territory, it is reported. Sufficient emphasis will be placed on the growing Impatience of this government, however, to make it plain that if warfare finally appears a duty it will not be shirked.
INFANTRY ROUTS BANDITS.
Kill Three Mexicans on U. S. Soil and Escape Without Casualties. BROWNSVILLE, Tex., Tune 17.—Revival of bandit activity in the lower Rio Grande valley last night resulted in vigorous action by authorities which was interpreted today here as presaging a determined attempt to nip the periodical recurrence of outlawry in

on American soil. Soon after reports were received that bandits appeared near San Benito several detachments of troops were sent to deal with them. Motor cars were commandeered in accordance with prearranged plans and two companies of the Twenty-Sixth infantry faere dispatched from Haringen to Olmito, ten miles north of Brownsville, with orders to cut off the bandits' retreat across the Rio Grande into Mexico. Meanwhile, another force of two companies of infantry sent from San Benito earlier in the night to investigate rev ports that the Joe Scott ranch had been attacked, found their quarry ten miles east of San Benito. A running fight took .place in which, accbrding to meagre reports available here, three Mexicans were killed while the American force suffered no casualties.
Developments Watched.
In addition to these two forces a troop of cavalry was thrown into the game of hide and seeK played by the Mexicans, when reports came that another bandit force had appeared near the Fresnosi track, fourteen miles north of Brownsyille. and had robbe,| a^,Mex- t^uljs 2, 9, August 6, :13.

lean farmer of his horses. The man escaped unharmed and reported -the occurrence to Fort Brown, from where the cavalry was sent.
Reports from the various detachments are waited eagerly here and at Fort Brown today.
Much interest was displayed concerning the question whether if the bandits eluded the soldiers on this side of the Rio Grande and effected an escape into Mexico the Americans would "pursue a hot trail" across the international boundary or leave the corraling of outlaws to Carranza soldiers under Gen. Ricaul,. who recently announced that he had placed a sufficient force in this territory to deal with all outbreaks and that any crossing by the Americans would meet with armed resistance.
Americans Reach Border. LAREDO, Tex., June 17.—-Phillip C. Hanna, United States consul-general at Monterey and one of the two remaining American consuls in Mexico, accompanied by half a dozen other Americans, arrived here today. He was reticent as to the object of his^ visit.
Texas rangers under command of Captain J. J. Sanders and several armed citizens were hurried to Islitas, 25 miles up the Rio Grande from Laredo, on a report that Mexican bandits were seen approaching the settlement. Rangers in that vicinity advised the few Americans to congregate at the J. B. Morrow ranch house from which an appeal for aid was telephoned. General Mann, commanding the Laredo district of the border patrol, had heard nothing regarding the raid and was inclined to believe that if a raid had been contemplated it had not been carried out.
Asked regarding oonditions in Mexico and the probable length of his stay, Consul Hanna replied: "Everything is quiet down the line. I may remain two or three days."
It has been known for some time that Consul Hanna was instructed by the state department that he could leave his post at any time at his own discretion.
Gavira Death Denied.
EL PASO, Tex., June 17.—Reports that General Gabriel Gavira, Carranza commander of northern Chihuahua, had been put to death at Mex^co City on the charge of treason, was officially denied today in a message received at the Mexican consulate here from Gen. Alvaro Obregon, Carranza's. war n. inister.
