This will mark the close of the business career of.. one of the oldest active business men In Richmond and nno whn hna hfpn in active service j ionger than any other business man of i Richmond, Harmon Fetta, He is grieved over having to give up his business, although he is almost! 71 years old. The best part of his I 1 ife has been spent at his store. Since j .. v. v,J he opened it, he estimates that he has walked 105,000 miles between his home and store. He makes three round trips a day and covers almost seven miles. This distance is traversed by him in all kinds of weather and he believes this is one reason that at 70 he feels no older than a man of 50. Opened Store at 28 N Mr. Fetta war born at 317 South Fourth street, Nov 7, 1849. His education was gained in the public schools of Richmond. At that time a high school was unheard of, and Air. Fetta said he w ould rather work at that time than go to school. His early youth was spent with his parents. Later he -worked in a Richmond cigar company and when 23 years old, opened his present store. Two years later he married Anna M. Schrage, who still lives and is young as her husband.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 22. Considerable comment was caused in political circles Wednesday over the failure of Senator Hiram W. Johnson to appear at the Sixth district Republican rally in Richmond Tuesday evening with Senator Warren G. Harding. Senator Johnson, who spent the night in Indianapolis, declared that after his speech at the Columbia Club he found it was too late to make the 3:05 o'clock train for Richmond, and that he had sent a message to those in charge of the meeting expressing his regrets at being unable to appear In answer to reports from Richmond that the senator had refused to share the evening's program with Senator Harding, Zell C. Swain, Johnson state manager, Wednesday issued the following statement: "When Senator Johnson completed his speech at the Columbia Club it was nearly 3 o'clock, and before he could change his clothes, which were wet with perspiration, the train for Richmond had left. Had No Objections. "He had no objections whatever to appearing on the same platform with Senator Harding and fully intended to

keep his date there. "In order to fulfill his promise to the people of Richmond he well speak there on the night of April 28. . He will also speak at Greenfield, where he was scheduled to appear enroute to Richmond, on the morning of May 1. Will W. Reller, chairman of the Republican rally held in Richmond last Tuesday night, made the following statement Thursday in regard to the failure of Senator- Hiram V. Johnson, or caniornia, to fulfill his engage ment here: "It makes little material difference that Senator Johnson did not attend the Richmond meeting last Tuesday night, but in view of the fact that Zell C. Swain, his manager, has attributed Johnson's failure to come to missing a train, I feel that in justice to certain newspaper reporters, and the local committee, that I should make a statement. Wouldn't Divide Platform "The real reason lor Senator Johneon s lauure to appear here is as already given, that he did not want to appear on the platform with any of his contestants. That information was communicated to the committee by Manager Swain, both in the morning and early afternoon of Tuesday, and a request was made by Swain that Johnson either be allowed to speak alone and Harding at another date or else let Johnson come on the day following the meeting. "Two telegrams' were sent to Swain and Johnson by noon Tuesday, urging mat tne date her not be broken, and the time wa fixed . for-Johnson's ap pearance on the program at 8:45. "I talked with Swain ovr the phone at 2:45 p. m., Wednesday for the pur pose of getting information as to when he might expect him. Swain said that Johnson was in his bath, having just come from the Columbia club, and that he would let Me know Johnson's Intentions in a shcrt while. Then Telegraphed Later. "I received a telegram from Johnson, filed in Indianapolis at 4:14 p. m., in which he assigned his failure to come as "the schedule arranged for me here prevents me from being with you tonight." "Johnson could have left Indianapolis at 4:30 on the Pennsylvania, arriving here at 6:50; he could have left Indianapolis on the limited interurban leaving there at 3:20 or 5:15, which cars make the trip to Richmond in two hours and a half, or he could have come by automobile. "The character of the Richmond meeting and the fact that Senator Harding was to speak hert, has been known to Swain for weeks, and he informed us definitely that Johnson would come, with full knowledge of all these facts."

REVOLT FLOOD SPREADING IN 'HEX. STATES y Commission Repres e n t i n $ Carranza Said to Be Neafing Sonora, but With Small Hopes for Success.

GET READY FOR CLASH By Associated Press) r, , WASHINGTON. April 22. Reports both to the state and war departments today continued to support, the unofficial dispatches that have told of the rapidly increasing area of revolt irf Mexico. - - ,. Administration officials - studied them carefully, but without betraying any indication that the position of this government would be other than that of an observer. The movement begun by the sepession of Sonora has gained tha support of at least four other states, the adherence of various groups of federal forces and the promises by Villa, Manuel Palaez and one or two other minor rebel chiefs that they will Join in the light on Carranza. the reports showed. Hasn't Asked Assistance So far as could be learned here. Carranza has made no overtures to the American government for assistance, either directly or indirectly. The rulings which have prevented his government from getting arms and ammunition in the United States are still in effect. However, a request for permission to import war materials would cause no surprise. The presence here of General Salvador Alvarado, as the unofficial representative of Alvaro Obregon, accepted leader of the new revolt. ha3 not brought from the administration any sign of its willingness to recognize the belligerency of the anti-government group. Commission to Sonora One small hope of an adjournment of the situation in Mexico was offered today in the announcement that a mission from Mexico City was on its way to Sonora for a conference with the leaders there. Members of that mission were reported to have held a conference with Carranza, but here it was regarded as doubtful if the secessionists would listen to any proposal made. Already, it was . pointed . outf . by those who have watched the growth of the movement, the revolt haspread over such territory and gained such support not only from many partisans of Obregon, but from those who have been in the field for many months as ordinary rebels and by units of the federal army that even its leaders would have difficulty in checking it. AG IT A PR1ETA. Sonora. April 22. 4 conference between General P. Elias Calles and eastern military leaders of Sonora and the reported approach of a federal mediation commission here were the outstanding features today in Sonora's secession movement. Calles was expected last night, but his arrival was delayed. The federal commission was reported at San Antonio yesterday. No word has been received in addition to that report. Federals May Attack Meanwhile indications of a pending attack by Carranza troops on the Chihuahua boundary was not lacking. General J. M. Pina, In command here, said a federal scouting party had been reported near a pass close to the American border.
