WILSON GIVEN JUTHORITY (Continued from Faga One.) first shot by the Mexicans and the spilling of American blood at Vera Cruz the theory of a "peaceful blockade" of Mexican ports by the United States navy was effaced, according to the general view here. International experts were a unit today in asserting that war really was declared by General Huerta when '. a rain of shot was fired into the American forces landed at Vera Cruz. Only one step remained to be taken today to unleash the armored forces of Uncle Sam, which have been on the mark for two days, and that was the concurrence of the house in the amendments of the senate of the resolution authorizing President Wilson to use the army and navy to force the Mexican dictator to respect the American flag. The senate after a day and night of impassioned debate at 3:21 o'clock this morning adopted the resolution by a vote of 72 to 13. All amendments to the measure as It came from the resolutions committee were voted down, including the Lodge preamble, which recited the murder of Americans in addition to the insults to the flag at Tampico and other indignities recounted by the president. Intense excitement prevailed in the senate and throughout the city during the night after the extra editions of the papers had carried the news of the skirmish at Vera Cruz in which SALTS IF KIDNEYS OR BLADDER BOTHER Harmless to flush Kidneys and neutralize irritating acids Splendid for system. Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irritate and inflame, causing a burning, ; scalding sensation, or setting up an irjrltation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or j three times -during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the waiter passes sometimes with a scalcing : sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in avoiding it.

four American marines were killed and a score wounded. It was realized that history was being made. Not since the stirring days preceding the war with Spain sixteen years ago, has the upper house of congress been so aroused. Senators realized that the news from Vera Cruz meant that, call it what one may, intervention in Mexico had come and the strong arm of the United States had reached into the republic south of the Rio Grande. How long it would remain, no one would venture to predict. Situation Serious. Military experts here expressed the opinion in private, none venturing to speak for publication, in the excitement of the moment, that the United States now would be forced to move against Mexico City with all the force of its tremendous military and naval power. No attempt is made to conceal the serious consequences that are likely to follow from the developments at Vera Cruz. On one point there was general agreement that it means the expenditure of millions of dollars and the risking of thousands of lives. The thirteen senators who voted against the resolution are all Republicans. They are: Brandegee (Connecticut); Bristow (Kansas); Dillingham (Vermont); Gallinger (New Hampshire); LaFollette (Wisconsin); Lippitt (Rhode Island); Lodge (Massachusetts); Norris (Nebraska); Oliver (Pennsylvania) ; Root (New York); Smoot (Utah); Weeks (Massachusetts 3), and Works (California). MEXICAN WAR MAY HELP TRADE GAYLE War with Mexico can have no effect either good or bad on business in Richmond, is the belief of A. D. Gayle, president of the First National bank. If any effect is felt in the entire country, it will be a good effect, Mr. Gayle believes. "Stocks will go up. and there will be a demand for arms, clothing for soldiers, food and supplies," Mr. Gayle stated. "However, as far as I know, nothing manufactured in Richmond and nothing raised extensively in this part of the country would be"effected in price. "The Spanish war had no bad effect on business. There was a panic in 1903, but that was not caused by the war. I believe if the country feels the effect of this war talk it will be for the good." GAME FOR SUNDAY STILL UNDECIDED With the opening game but a few days away, no definite date has been secured for next Sunday's game, although negotiations are being carried on with a number of fast teams. Of the possibilities, Bay City, Saginaw and Middleborough seem the most likely to be booked here for that day. There will be a game. This is a certainty. The management of the Richmond nine will stage a game here that day if they have to play the Senators. This is however unlikely as it is thought that either one of the three possibilities or some other fast bush team can be booked for that day. PENAL FARM SITE STILL IN DOUBT Daily sessions are being held by the commission appointed by Governor Ralston to select a site for the state penal farm. Trouble in arranging the minor details in connection with the site are holding up the announcement, according to Dr. S. E. Smith, superintendent of the Eastern Indiana Hospital for the Insane, who is president of the commission. Dr. Smith said today the announcement might be expected at any time. Colorado has passed a law requireing the use of portable electric lamps except safety laxnpB for testing, in all mine.

ing order. iBULLETIN.) BY LEASED WIRE WASHINGTON, April 22 Four thousand American marines under the cover of hail of shot and shell from guns of the Atlantic fleet today took entire possession of Vera Cruz. While big guns of the fleet boomed forth the warning from daybreak until nearly noon, it was only to indicate that the American fighting force meant business and that any resistance by Mexicans would be met by a return fire

which would devastate the city. The occupation of Vera Cruz was for the most part peaceful, according to state and navy department advices. The sharp fighting which marked yesterday's step toward interference in Mexico was absent today. The Mexican forces withdrew from the city and offered little opposition to marines under Majors Butler, Catlin and Neville. The American forces soon penetrated to all parts of the city and took possession of all public buildings. At 8 o'clock a proclamation signed by Rear Admiral Fletcher was posted in all sections of the city stating that it is not the intention of the United States naval forces to

interfere with the administration of civil affairs of the city more than is necessary for the purpose of maintaining law and order. Fletcher however, warned Mexicans that the United States would not tolerate firing upon its men. No American noncombatants were injured or the city proper destroyed, says the dispatch received at the White House this afternoon, from Fletcher. Firing has ceased in and around the city, except for an occasional picket shot. Huerta Voices Friendship For People of United States BY LEASED WIRE NATIONAL PALACE, CITY OF MEXICO, April 22. To the International News Service, New York City: "The Republic of Mexico and its government hope for a tranquil settlement of events. In the remote case that there is some reason for friction between Mexico and the United States you may rest assured that the people of this republic will never conduct itself toward the people of the United States otherwise than as cordial neighbors and friends. (Signed) "V. Huerta."

NEW YORK, April 22. The foregoing dispatch was received by the International News Service this afternoon from President Huerta of Mexico. It was sent from the official residence of the dictator early today, but did not arrive until after 2 o'clock.

DISSEIITIOll HOLDS UP RUBBER PLANT Directors of Great Western ' Company Disagree Oyer 'Locating Here. v x ' ;

As the result of a disagreement of the backers of the Great Western Rubber company, which was to have located here, it is probable that the company ,will change its plans. The company had ordered its machinery but unforeseen difficulties will prevent the opening of the factory here at present. Deremus and Dennison, . the men who conferred with the local association and announced that the plant would make this its permanent location, state that the cause for not bringing the concern to the city at once has been that the Chicago interests had not decided definitely on what course that they would take in locating the factory. The Richmond site is satisfactory to the majority of the directors. Members of the South Side Improvement association hope that the difficulties of the firm can be settled satisfactorily and that the firm will yet locate here. Hans N. Koll, secretary of the association, says everything in the association's power will be done to bring the concern to the city. Mr. Koll believes that the trouble existing among the backers of the company will soon be settled and that Richmond will secure the factory. WILSON D0ES RIGHT Gilbert Parker Says World .Approves. By Sir Gilbert Parker (the noted novelist and one of the best informed men in the British Parliment). LONDON, April 22. The initial provocation offered by General Hue rat's officers to the United Statea was so premeditated and calculated that any self-respecting nation would be compelled to demand satisfaction. This is not alone an American question. It is a world question, though the world must settle it. The offense offered to the United States might easily have been offered to an European nation in different form, and the situation thus created would have been infinitely more difficult of adjustment and settlement than this one. The United States was bound to exact from -Huerta an apology adequate to the offense. The United States has behaved in the whole business with exemplary patience, but it has done at last what it has always done when driven too far. It acts with sharp and resistless decision. One thing is certain. .The whole Anglo-Saxon world will approve the course taken by President Wilson in enforcing his and the nation's proper demand. The national honor of the United States necesitated full and adequate apology. The simplest form is saluting the flag that has been insulted. It means that the United States must undertake the subjugation of Mexico in order to secure law, order, pacification and constitutional freedom for its people. The country will be engaged upon a vast enterprise that the end of which no man can j see. JUDGMENT DELAYED Expensive litigation with a Pittsburg firm, which cost the Fetta Water Softener company about Slo.OOO, caused the present financial stringency, Robert Fetta, president of the company, said today, when he announced that efforts are being made to get extensions on the $18,000 notes for which judgments were filed in circuit court Monday. The firm has been established about six years and had done a good business. A Pittsburg firm, however, charged them in eastern courts with Infringements on patents and in the litigation which followed the company spent $15,000 clearing itself of the charges. It is said two of the four creditors have granted extensions on the notes or have otherwise been provided for. The two banks, the Second and Union National banks, held good securities for the money they loaned the company. The other creditors are Elwood McGuire and M. C. Henley. The executions handed Sheriff Bayer j against the company have not been served and will be witnheld pending litigation between the lawyers representing the company and the creditors.

ARMY EXPERTS EXPECT WAR TO BE SHORT, BUT COSTLY

' BY LEASED WIRE ' j WASHINGTON, April 22. The expense involved in a Mexican campaign will be enormous, according to war department experts. Few civilians have the slightest conception what the officers of the' general staff have done in the way of figuring out the things ; to be done in case of campaigning in Mexico. . But some additional details (as to -how far the general staff has gone got out today. The army operations in case of armed intervention,- will consist of two almost distinct parts. These will be, first, the actual campaigning, involving the capture of Mexico City and taking possession of the country, and. second, the garrisoning of the country and the restoration of ordtr to the end that the Mexican people may be enabled to establish a stable government.Unless this country should decide' to annex Mexico, or a part of it, it will be something like the process in Cuba, though on a larger scale. Big Garrisons Needed. : Army officers say garrisons of considerable size will have to be established in every city of importance. The forces in each center, will have to be big enough to overawe either bandits or disaffected parts of the population in their vicinity. This will require many men. The big feature of the campaign at the outset, upless there is simply a blockade or a seizure of ports temporarily, will be the movement on Mexico City. t is calculated there will be some stiff fighting on this expedition. Not lees than 20,000 to 25.000 men will be required to carry on the operation of seizing Vera Crus, holding it, mov

The campaign In the north can probable be carried on . with 20.000 to 25,000 troops actually In the field. '. . War to be Short, - Some hard fighting. Is expected If there is a uniting of all Mexican elements against Americans. But the intention is that it shall not last long. Then, the country is to be divided into districts, garrisons distributed, and the constructive work of restoring order to . be undertaken. In this process, there will be much hard work. Much fighting of a guerrilla sort will be required, and many more troops

! needed than for the actual conquest of the Mexican armies. The figures of the army men will, no doubt, be scouted by some as too large. But it may be recalled that General Sherman, at the outbreak of the Civil war, got himself called a lunatic for estimating that it would take 200,000 men to subdue the Confederacy. He was laughed at on every hand. The Mexican proposition, from a 'military standpoint, will be unlike I anything this government has ever atI tempted. In a general way, Cuba and I th. Phllinninni raniiirml much .tfc same process whic-i will be requif in Mexico. But the scope of territory in Mexico is vast, and when it comes to garrisoning and tranquillizing an empire it is no child's play. The army men say it will be a case of much work, heartbreaking work, and little glory. SU11, they would like to try their hand at it. Aurora, Ind., on April 22, 1899, succeeding the Rev. John Mache, resigned. His pastorate has been a busy one and many improvements have resulted from his work. Shortly after taking charge of the church, the building was destroyed by fire and was replaced by the present edifice costing approximately $100,000. Two years ago the magnificent school was erected. The membership of the church has been greatly increased and there has been a marked growth, spiritually and intellectually, in the parish since the arrival of Father Roell.
