i could not raise the money.   Even If

Statement of his lawyers, quoting WU
]lam  Travcrs Jerome  ns  saying  that
'hHW was sane.
"That omission has    outraged    thc
British idea of fair play," said Thaw
I'Thoy believe ip* a square deal."

nails to the quick and fussed,with

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. — The
Huerta administration In Mexico may
reconsider Its rejection of the American proposals to restore peace in
Mexico and nrrange a new basis for
negotiations with the United States
before next Tuesday. Strong intimations to this effect reached official
Washington tonight, along with the
information that the financial condition of tho Huertn administration was
SPOh that a crisis was imminent.
Should the Huerta government decide
to enter Into tho new baels of discussion .withdrawing Its contention^ as
expensed In tho Huerta note replying to the proposals communicated bv
Mr. Und, President Wilson, in all
probability, will not read his message
to congress on Tuesday, as be intended. The president made no effort today to prevent the senate from adjourning until Tuesday. It had been
supposed that he would read the mea-
snpe on Monday and would aBk tho
loaders in congress to arrange a joint
session. Failure to send any word to
tbe leaders was Interpreted as mean-
law* that the United States had practically given the Huerta government
until Tuesday to make up Its mind
finally as to what. It would do.        i
It. Is positively said that the United
States will continue to insist upon the
resignation of Huerta, or an announcement of his intention to do so, as
well as his elimination from the presidential raco in the subsequent election.
Army Mutinous—No Pay.
European diplomatic pressure, it is
known hero. Is tjuletly at work In Mexico City in an effort, to convince Huerta officials that Uie policy of the
United States is being approved
abroad.
Tbo failure of the Huerta government to obtain funds in Eurone
throueh tlm non-recognition of the
Unit-ad Stales Ir pointed out by the
diplomats as likely to continue pending a more respectful consideration
or the American proposals.
It Is lenrned from authoritative
sources that the Huerta government
I?, facing a mutinous nrmv, dissatisfied because no pay has been forthcoming for weeks.

siltiltlonalistfl are rennrted to havo

All are recorded as federal victories.
According tn the official reports thp
military situation tlirnurrbnnt the re*
nubticis greatly" Improved. The rebels
are said to be generally disheartened
nnd on tha defensive ln ai! quarters.
These renorfs are oracOcallv the only
source of information on which fi&ws
for local consumption is based. The
other side of the story rnrelv reaches
the canital. because of interruption
and censorship of the despatches at
points outside the capital, In three
of the fl-rhts rennrted 175 rebels are
said to have been killed, while tho
federals lost eielit.
Federal Forces Hemmed In.
The situation about Torreon is now
admitted fo he slightly worse. It ia
understood that the rebels control
much of the country in that section
and that 1,000 more are marching
southward from Cuarntaro Cienegns,
Coahulla, to reinforce those already
there. Eastward from Cuarataro Cien-
ocas Gen. Tinas' headquarters at Mon-
clove has reported a portion of his
men to be cut off by the rebels and
in need of help. Gen. Joaquin Mans,
who Is marching northward from
Monclove to Ciudad Porfklo Diaz, has
been instructed to delay his movements In order to co-operate with Gen.
Pinna. The government, expresses
confidence that Penas and Maas will
be able to cheek the southward movement of tlie rebels. •''

by the government. Admissions are
made, however, that, the rebels ate

Of course you can judge a cigar
by its ash, Mr. Smoker! A connoisseur will tell you that. When a cigar
holds iU ash well, like the B-NAT-CO—
and when that ash is clean and white—-
it's safe to say the cigar is a good one. Even
if you could gel a good ash in other than the
best cif/ars, simply for the sake of more enjoyable smoking, a dependable ash would be
something to find. A B-NAT-CO won't deposit it. .sh
in your lap without warning—spot your clothing—and
spoil your pence. You can count on it to hold almost
'till the last puff. Itsgoodashis antlingsupplementto

more can you ask of a cigar? Here, then are reasons

OIL FUEL FOR THE NAVY.
When Mr. Winston Churchill announced that oil Will supplement coal
ln the case of large as well as small
ships of war, he cnlled attention to
another of the long series of changes
that have revolutionized ocean transportation, says tbe St. John Standard-
The use of oil will briiiK with It not
only increased speed, but a much
larger radius of action and easier and
faster replenishment. The admiralty
haB not come to this decision without, full assurance that it is justified,
for more than a hundred destroyers
are built or under construction dependent entirely on oil fuel, and the
experiment of building battle cruisers
and a number of light cruisers burning
oil fuel, Mr. Churchill affirmed, has
proved successful,
The Immediate policy of the admiralty, as announced by Mr. Churchill,
is to make contracts for oil five years
ahead, and one contract, for a substantial proportion of the quantity required, is being placed with the Mexican Eagle company, which is a British concern. This will be only an interim arrangement, enabling the government to have for a time the certainty of being able to buy a steady
supply at a steady price. In Mr.
Churchill's words, "tlie ultimate policy Is that the admiralty should become the independent owner and producer of its own supplies of liquid
fuel." It Is to do this by building up
an oil reserve sufficient to keep the
navy supplied in time of wnr, and to
be above price fluctuations in time of
peace; by acquiring the power to deal
mS7idCan/
2,5 & a -&/£
in crude oil as it comes cheaply to
market, afterwards distilling It ae
needed; and by becoming the owner
or controller at lhe source, of a proportion of the natural oil that will be
required.
The use ot oil ;ib fuel will effectively meet tiie increasing difficulty of
securing stokers in sufficient numbers
to feed the boilers of the great modern battleships, and thus will make
possible a considerable reduction in
a ship's complement. Larger and
healthier living quarters can be provided for the men. because of the
lesser space required for the storage
of oil fuel, and the hard and dirty
work of coaling ships will become a
thing of tlie past. But of greater consequence than any of these are tho
strategical advantages which the use
of oil will offer—greater Bpeed and
secrecy of movement,
Coal will not be entirely abandoned
because, as Mr. Churchill explained,
il Is only required in ships when an
exceptional Bpeed has to he reached
Whatever may ultimately happen, coal
will continue to he the main baslB of
British sua power In battleships at
present. But the stake In oil ships
is already bo Important that Great
Britain must have the certainty of a
steady supply of oil at a steady price.
The admiralty recognizes that It muBt
become tlie independent owner and
producer of its supplies. In the United Kingdom are ^reat potentialities,
since tlie Scottish shale deposits
alone, if developed, can supply a large
quantity of oil for many years. There
are also many other sources or supply available ln vnrious parts of the

What' the Press  Is Saying
Nothing Wrong With Reglna.
To the citizens of Keglna the howls
ahout hard times and business depression is amusing. In this cily business was never better; building up to
the present is greater than during the
same period last year; bank clearings
are exceeding all previous records; retailers point with pride to the expansion of their business, and, generally
speaking, conditions are sane and yet
buoyant, if conditions are as bad as
painted in the homes of tlu* calnmity
howlers, they should come to Regina,
see the progress and prosperity, and
return home and adopt tlie policy of
sane expansion which lias made this
the beBt city on the prairie.—Regina
Province.
Canadian Municipal Credit.
A London financial house is prepared to furnish the citv of lOdmonton
with $1,000,001) a month. This ought
to help to alienee all the Home-Paynes
calamity howlerB who have striven bo
hard to give the credit of Canadian
municipalities, particularly ot; those In
the west, a black eye.—Montreal Herald.
Unauthorized Unions.
Unless the official bodies of the
Presbyterian and Methodist churches
hurry up there will lie nothing to unite
by the time the official nuptials nre
arranged. The colleges and many individual churches are coupling' up and
eloping.—Winnipeg Tribune,
This Day in
Canadian History
In tbe spring of 1711, 5,000 regular
soldiers, besides -siiilors and marlnea,
left England for America nn 15 men-
of-war and 40 transports, to attack
Quebec. The English Colonists were
to give tbem help, mid it was intended
that at the same lime an army Should
march on Montreal, The command nf
the fleet waH given to Sir Hovenden
Walker, nnd that of iin* land forces
t„ '\Jiick'* Hill, the brother of a fuvor-
lte of Que-..*-, Anile; and both nf these
proved singularly incompetent. After
spending a month at Uoston lo complete preparations and take in additional men and supplies, th" < jqicili-
tlon net sail fur Quebec, but hardly
entered the St. Lawrence when, on n
foggy night, the unskilful admiral—
many miles out of his course—headed
ftriiight fo'r the north shore of the
river. UususplclOUg "f danger, he was
In his berth, but was roused from bis
slumbers to find his vessel amongst
the breakers, it wns turned just in
time, nntl eight ships following his
lead wero dashed on the rocks nf Egg
islands, and about i,o(io lives were lost
The disaster occurred very early in
August 23, and two dn>*n later at a
council of war it was decided to
ibnndon the enterprise.
RIFLE MEET WILL
BE DRY NEXT YEAR
There Will Not Be Any Wet Stuff on
Grounds at Dominion  Rifle
Association Shoot.
■"By Pally News LmsmI Wire.)
OTTAWA, Aug. 88.—The question
bus been asked frequently oi late
whether the order of Col. Sam
Hughes, minis)er of militia, foihiddin.!
canteens In the military campi of the
country would apply at the Dominion
Hide association meei, where several
hundred militiamen will be gathered.
In tho past there has been no law
against hard beverages and after Col,
Hughes' active campaign this year
many wondered If bis attitude toward
drink would have any effect on tho
Dominion Rifle association.
However, it is pointed out lhat the
Dominion of Canada Rifle association
Is an organization having no connection with the department of militia.
Although Col. Hughes Is an honorary
officer his position is about similar to
what It would be if lie were chosen
ns an honorary officer of any other
athletic organization. Any person is
eligible to shoot at the Dominion Rifle
association meet in nearly all of the
matches. No uniforms or connection
with any military body is required.
Next year, however, there will be
no "wet stuff" at the big Bhoot. The
reason Ib lhat the matches will lie
held at the new government rifle
ranges, which are now under const ruction in March township. March, it
is pointed out, is a dry municipality,
and it will bo against the law lu bring
in intoxicants notwithstanding the
ranges are government property. This
will tie the firBt time the Dominion
Rifle association meet lias been dry.

advised tne to try "Fruit-a-tives".
After using three packages, I felt
relieved and continued until I bad
used five packages when a complete

How   About   Your
Housework?
Noted doctors have said that housework is the best form of physical
exercise for women—for it not only
DEVELOPS but BEAUTIFIBft
The healthy woman ENJOYS her
housework—she takes pleasure In keeping Ihinjrs spick and span—and it costs
her practically no effort to do so—because idle is HEALTHY.
Arc you healthy? Do you find your
house-work pleasant and invlnorutlnfj?
Or'do you dread «it because you don't
feel "Just right"? That "don't feel
Just right" sensation may NOT be
worth seeing a doctor about—but It Is
a pretty certain Indication that you
are suffering from Indigestion, Constipation, Biliousness or Dyspepsia.
Next time you don't tf eel "Just rl?ht"
Just try IB drops of Mother Selgel's
Curative Syrup. You'll get relief-
quick ly.
England has TESTED and PROVEN,

is recognized as a standard remedy.

home where there nre young children.
An occasional dose of the Tablets will
present stomach and bowel troubles,
or If the trouble comes suddenly the
prompt use of the Tablets will cure
the baby. The Tablets are sold by

IS NEAR CRISIS
(continued from paw on».»
lowers of Zapata Invaded tbe federal
district Gen. Roblea has destroyed
seven towns within a few miles o!
the capital, Including AJurco, which
waB almost within sight of the city.
In these destroyed towns only
churches were left standing and they
were abandoned by the priests, whose
congregations have disappeared. Three
more towns near the eapltol were ordered destroyed today. In the capital's suburbs there are arriving dally
hundreds of dispossessed refugees
from destroyed towns, who carry on
their backs their personal effects.
Zapatistas Torture Victims.
The followers of Zapata are more
active than ever In their campaign of
destruction and personal outrages.
They are raiding numerous villages
and ranches and subjecting their vie*
tlms to torture In the states of Mexico and Hidalgo, west and north of
the capital. The government papers
describe these outrages as "the last

Soldiers Murder Madero Deputy.
(By Dally News Leased Wlrn.)
CITY OP MEXICO, Aug. 22.—Deputy Borden Mangel was shot to death
tonight by federal soldiers near Atz*
capotzalco, a suburb of the capital*
Mangel was a friend of the late Prest*
dent Madero and recently was subjected to an Investigation on a charge
of sedition. The explanation of the
shooting, as given by the local newspapers, Is that a detachment of sol-
■Hers came upon Mangel and that
Mangel, single handed, attacked the
soldiers with stones. The soldiers,
the newspapers say, found it necessary to fire in Belf-defence and Mangel was killed. It Is added that Mangel must have been insane.
days Wilson Aiding  Financiers
(By Dally Newa Leased Wire.)
LONDON, Aug. 22—The Saturday
Review, in n leading article today,
savagely attacks President Wilson's
Mexican policy. It says President
Wilson "unconsciously Is playing the
gamo of those in the United States
who want control of Mexican pollticB
in order to fill their own pockets."
Concluding, the article says: "If he
wishes to plunge his own country into
a war that would last for years, drive
Mexico back into anarchy and play
the game of his own political enemies,
he will continue his present policy and
try to break down thc Huerta regime.
On the other hand Is the alternative
of accepting the trifling reverse politically. Recognizing facts ho will
have to adopt one policy or the other.
Neither may bo pleuaant, but there can
be no doubt which one is recommended by humanity and common sense."

W. J, Bryan Aids Democratic Majority
In   Fight  to   Force  Measure
Through Congress.
, (By Dally News Leased Wire.)
; WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.—Supporters of tn,. administration currency
bill scored an important victory in the
house Democratic caucus today when
thev brought to their aid an unqualified endorsement of the measure from
Secretary Bryan and defeated proposed
insurgent amendments that would have
prohibited Interlocking directorates in
national or state banks incorporated
under the proposed law. Secretary
Bryan in a Mler addressed t • Chairman Glass, of the currency committee,
approved the bill as it stands, declaring President Wilson had recognised
fundamental rights of popular control
In Us provisions. He asserted that the
plank of the Democratic platform
against interlocking directorates was
aimed chiefly at trusts and he urged
Democrats to stand by the president
and not to load down the currency
bill with any amendment that might
endanger Its early passage.

J. W. Holmes Delighted With Display
at   Rossland—Looks for  Much
Friendly Competition
Greatly pleased and very surprised
at tho excellent exhibits of small
fruits, vegetables nnd (lowers ills-
played at the first animnl fcossland
llowef show wna j. w. Holmes, president of tlie Nelson* ROSe festival, who
visited ROBSlarid to attend the (lower
show on   Wednesday Inst.
Mr. Holmes whs greatly surprised at
tho display which was almost entirely
grown In tlie h|gh altitude aroum
Rossland, some (^,the exhibitions o
small fruits and vegetables being real
ly marvellous. He consulted with tin
officers itf the Rossland show, giving
to them tlie results of bis experience
with the first Nelson display, nnd receiving from them many suggestions
whieh he hopes will be of value to the
next   local   rose  festival.
Mr. Holmes feels that with a (lower
show now organized in the Gulden
City some friendly competition in displays are sure to came about, and hi
is positive that it will prove added
stimulus to the floral devotees of both
cities and, the entire district.
There is nothing to prevent these
two cities, he believes, from fostering
such splendid displays and encourag
