U. S. DIPLOMATS DISAGREE WITH MILITARY MEN State and War Departments Clash at Sending Ships to Overawe Mexicans at Vera Cruz. . - - - -

LANSING FOR PEACE Wants Vessels Diverted and Holds Anti-American Feeling Aroused by Dispatch of Battleships. WASHINGTON, Aug. 12. A distinct difference of opinion existed today between the Btate department and the war ard navy departments over Mexico. The state department believes the f how of force made by sending the fourth division of the Atlantic fleet to southern waters and the orders to the army to get ready for possible service was a mistake. Its effect has been to stir up bitter anti-American feeling not alone in Mexico, but in certain Latin-American countries where the belief exists that armed intervention to establish a government for Mexico is planned. Wants Ships Diverted. Secretary Lansing told President Wilson that he believed the warships iJiould be diverted to an American port such as Hampton Roads. He also told the president that the trouble in Texas was due to disappointed bandits and former soldiers Avho were anxious to rob and murder, and that his reports indicated there was no connection between the fighting there and the Mexican revolution. Lansing brought with him reports received froxu Consuls Canady and Silliman at Vera Cruz, showing that the Carranza capital was quiet. At his request the navy department was directed to get a report from Vera Cruz, which will lie used to check additional reports expected later today from Vera Cruz state department ancucy. Causes Resentment. The attempt on the part of the diplomatic branch to soft pedal all movements by the army and navy has caused resentment in both military and naval circles. There is not the fliRhtest attempt to disguise the serious situation confronting the United States. The conferences between Secretary Lansing and the Latin-America diplomats and the contemplated appeal to the factions to get together, is characterized as another Niagara Falls talkfest that will prove abortive. They privately declare that only armed intervention will result in the establishment of a real government :n Mexico. It can be said, that if assured they would not be court martialed, every officer in the United States would declare that the Mexican military faction can never be subdued except by force. The chief grievance of the officers is the failure . of the United States to stop arms shipments into Mexico. Thousands of cartridges and rifles are being shipped into Mexico each week. SWINE SPREAD FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE INSPECTOR ASSERTS The susceptibility of swine to the foot and mouth disease and the failure on the part of swine owners to recognize its symptoms are giving the federal authorities no small amount of worry in their clean-up campaign, iiaid a federal inspector today. I Sore mouth, a common indication of j the disease, is an ordinary sequence of hog cholera, and contusions on the feet are frequent in swine which have hrjen driven or shipped.- For these reasons little attention is paid by tlu owners of swine of these symptoms, and unless the herd is located within Mispicious territory foot and mouth ,'isease may continue, in a chronic form for n considerable length of time ! fore discovery. The danger, of i Mil:;" lies in the ability of these nnli .a! ; to disseminate, the disease.

MODERN DENTISTRY

FRIENDS CONSIDER MISSIONARY WORK

Departmental heads of the Frfends' church held the third of a series' of conferences In the office of S. Edgar Nicholson, editor of the- American Friend, yesterday. The conferences were planned for the purpose of affording a more general knowledge of the work of the various boards. Yesterday's session for the most part -was devoted to a discussion of the Foreign Missionary board.: .'t -.Following are the names of those who were present: Thomas Jone3 of Dunreith, secretary of the Young People's board; Charles Tebbetts and Ross Hadley of Richmond, secretary and assistant secretary respectively of the Foreign Missionary board; Professor Allen D. Hole of Richmond, chairman of the executive committee of the five years' meeting. , j BOND'S Continued From Page One the company had surrendered its franchise to the state public service commission and was now operating under f-n indeterminate permit issued by the commission. They also declared that the commission had granted the company the right to engage in business outside the city. Bond Advises Action. Bond advised that steps be taken to prevent the Light, Heat and Power company from operating such service Mnes, even if it was necessary to enter into litigation. "Under its franchise the Light, Heat and Powe: company only has the right U use the streets of the city to furn?sh electric current within the city limits," the city attorney declared. "In y opinion, the city council would have no authority to delegate to the company the right to encumber city streets for the purpose of transacting business outside the city. I have asked Wilfred Jessup, attorney of the company, and Superintendent Nimrod Johnson to appear before the board for the purpose of discussing this question but for some reason unknown to me, they have neglected to do this. I have no feeling against the company in this matter. I am actuated only by my duty to protect the rights of the city." Weans Fatal Blow. In the event the courts decide that the Light, Heat and Power company cm not use the streets of Richmond for distributing systems to points outside trie city, it would probably be a fatal blow to that corporation, for the business that company now has with neighboring towns and which it Is planning to add forms its greatest source of profit. Asked if the municipal plant could use the streets of Richmond for constructing distributing sj stems to piints outside the city. City Attorney Bond declared the city had the right, to use its streets for any purpose it desired. "On the other hand, the Light, Heat and Power company can do no more than that, which is provided in 'ts franchise and the company's fran-; C;iiso permits it to use the city strec only to distribute its service within the city," Mr. Bond added. The city attorney based his report fr; the board today on a protest filed a few days ago by the Starr Piano company against permitting the Light, Heat, and Power company placing a distributing system for its Brookville line on South First street. Mr. Bond held that the protest was well taken and that the board had no authority to pt rmit the company to c.onstruct such a line on any other street. The sum spent for newspaper pflvertisinj? in the United States is $250,000,000. This is 40 per cent, of all advertising and more than four times as much as in the second lareost me- ! dium.

Ind., Aug. 12. Ross Cramer and Claude Kitterman shipped 112 head of hogs from here Saturday. The hogs averaged 274 pounds." Neighbors who helped haul the loads to the shipping point were treated to a big breakfast by Mr. Kitterman. .- RUNS EXCURSION For the first time in four years, the Pennsylvania" railroad will run an excursion train to Cincinnati next Sunday, The train will leave Richmond at 5:05 a. m. and returning will leave tne Ohio city at 7:10. The fare for tte round trip will be $1.40. JITNEYS WIN IN MUNCIE. MUNCIE, Aug. 12. Jitney bus owners scored again when Mayor Bunch refused to call a special council meeting to pass an ordinance calling for an indemnity bond of $10,000 for each car, and prohibiting men under 21 to operate jitneys. Muncie has long been known as a safe harbor for "infant industries." MEMBERS as to whetner the county should build an entirely new bridge, I shall wait for the report of the commissioners and the bridge engineer. If a bridge is built is should extend to Second or Third street, if possible, in any way. Mark Stevens If the bridge is in as bad a condition as has been reported, I favor a new structure, not merely the patching up of the present one. If the bridge has to cost more than $100,000 bonds should be issued. I have not talked to the commissioners about it, and the matter has never been discussed at a meeting of the council since I have been a member. Hugh Allen I have not given the matter any thought. If a new bridge is built it ought not to cost more than $60,000, the cost of the present structure. Jesse Druley The council should make a thorough investigation before the present bridge is torn down. I am not in favor of building a new bridge if it can be repaired reasonably, but the present, bridge was a mistake in the first place, and I don't see now how it can be repaired. I believe that if anything is done at this time, it should be to erect a new concrete structure. I am in favor of the county appointing several expert engineers before action is taken. Richard Davenport I'll favor the purchase of a new Main street bridge, providing the conditions warrant it. 1 have not had an nnnnrtnnitv tn in. veKtigate, and whether or not I will vote for a new one to supplant the one now in use, will depend upon the inspection that I will make. 20 Pet.

DIRECTORS Continued From Page One which was the object of the negotiations. Today it Was learned for the first time that the Commercial Club officials had an excellent reason for not making public the name of the concern. These officials do not know what company it is, what kind of products it manufactures nor where it is now located. The promoter of this project is J. T. Wakins and he is said to make his headquarters at Indianapolis. Watkins has absolutely refused to reveal the identity of the company he is representing, at the present time. Here is the proposition Watkins has presented to the Commercial club directors: Proposes Meeting. If the Commercial club is interested in locating in this city, at the Rumely plant, the large manufacturing company he represents, he is prepared to bring to Richmond the members of the board of directors of his company who will personally state their propo
