CLAIMS AGAINST MEXICO CAUSE OF CENSJJRE BY BAR Americans Suing for 600 Million —Mexicans for Less. Times Washington Bureau. 1.122 yew York Avenue WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—Americans claim more than $600,000,000 against Mexico. , Mexicans claim about $166,000,000 against the United States. That sums up the international litigation now pending between the two republics, the origin and prose' cution- of which has aroused the American Bar Association and re> suited in censure of one prominent Washington attorney for alleged solicitation and fomentation. Thousands of Claims To date about 6,810 American claims have been filed, 3,311 of these arising out of Mexican revolutions since 1910. There are about 800 Mexican claims. General claims on both sides date Baca to 1868, year of the last claims agreement between the two countries. Will Get Little Past experience indicates that the American litigants will get less than one per cent of what they claim. American claims totalled $470,000,000 in 1868, but only $4,12i,000 wa' awarded. The Mexicans did even worse. They claimed $86,600,000 and goT only $160,000, one-tenth of one per cent. A majority of the present Ameri can claimants are home-steaders forced out of Mexico and dispossessed of all property in the revolutions of fifteen years ago. Many are Mormons who colonized in Mexico for religious liberty. DOG EIGHT BRINGS WOUNDS TO DOZEN Twelve People Shot Animals Uninjured. Bv Times Snecial GAWBER, England, Sept. 24. Twelve people are suffering from shotgun wounds and five are under arrest as the result of a dog fight in which the dogs were uninjured. Herbert Parker was walking with some friends and his dog when another dog approached. A skirmish between the dogs caused an argument among the bystanders: s he argument caused a free-for-all fight; the fight became a running retreat for Parker and his adherents and a siege of Parker's house, which he, his two sons and two friends raised with a shotgun. Twelve besiegers were wounded, two of them women, and Parker and tjje ether four defenders are charged with “shooting at la'rge with intent to murder.’’

Millionaire Offiers Huge Loans to Belgium and France. ' • By Milton Bronner N/A Service Writer LONDON, Sept. 24.—Sir Basil Zaharoff has been toppled from his throne as Europe's millionaire man of mystery by Capt. Alfred Loewenstein, about whom all Europe at the present time is talking and guessing. | the Greek, bom in Constantinople, Avoids publicity. Molelike, he works underground, trying to pull the hole in after him. Txiewensteln, the Belgian, worked equally as quietly until the other day, when
Captain Alfred Loewenstein t became known that he had hired ( a whole fleet of airplanes to carry him and his business guests around Eurtape. 'To th'is was added the report that next month he mi~ht hire a whole steamship to transport him, his 1 retinue, his autos and his airplanes 1 to the United States. But all that was as nothing compared to the sensation he created in European money markets when he ! calmly announced that very shortly 1 he hoped to olTer Belgium a loan of $56,000,000 for two years—without J interest. OfTer to France While bankers were pressing their feverish brows, he nonchalantly de- 1 dared that he also was going To offer France a loan of $50,000,000 for two years at only 2 per cent interest. His object was to 'help his j native land stabilize its currency, and to do this by assisting France, ' with whoge currency Belgian money j seems inextricably mixed up. Not since Dumas created his char- j aeter of the Count of Monte Cristo has anybody in the world made such prodigal offers of money. His family has been settled in Bel I gium for three generations. His fa- , ther was a prominent banker in Belgium, and when he died Alfred took * over the business. But he soon branched out more as a speculator than a banker. He electrified the' financiers and he financed electri- j cians. Today he controls the great electric tramway lines of Barcelona, Kpstln, and Brazilian Traction Company the International Hydro- j
Electric Company. He has holdings in electric plants all over South America and is deeply interested in many Canadian concerns. Rented Eight Villas A number of years ago, he practically became a resident of Great Britain, settling down in the hunting colony of Leicestershire, where he bought the magnificent thousand acre estate of Thorpe Saitcliville near Melton Mowbray. Recently he decided to make the French seashore resort of Biaiyitz his business headquarters for the summer season. He not pnly hired a magnificent villa for himself, but seven other villas for his staff of clerks and secretaries. All day long at Biarritz he- 1 ternated work at high speed with physical exertlton. Even while shaving, he had several stenographers at his elbows to whom he dictated business letters.
OR. W. B. CALDWELL AT THE AOE OF 8*
To Dr. W. B. Caldwell, of Monticello, 111., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed cruel that so many constipated infants and children had to be kept "stirred up" and haif sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty’ oils. . While he knew that constipation was the cause of nearly all children's little ills, he constantly advised mothers to give only a harmless lax ative which would help to establish natural bowel "regularity.” In Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsi mothers have a regulating laxativ which can depend upon whenever a child is constipated, bilious, feverish r sick from a cold, indige* tion or sour stomach. All children love its pleasant taste.
