What I had been guarding aginst was any appearance of hostile action that might occasion a general outbreak, but the pressure put upon me wa too strong to be resisted. "You see, the problem was not merely the protection of Americans in Tampico alone, for the foreign population was scattered all through the oil region and amng ranches far in the interior.

Says I Local Broker. The proserity that Is sweepin over the New York Stock Zexhanul is not of an ephemeral nature but is destined to continue for many mouths. in the opin ion of John L. Edwards. of the firm of John 1. Edwards & Co., stock brokers. with oflices at 1416 0 street northwest. "The bull movement that is charaater' sing the sessions of the New York ex change." said Mr. Edwards hast night. "undoubtedly will continue for some time. This is not alone my own opntaon. but also the opinion of numerous other stock brokers. The movement is sure to last until after the election. and should Hughes be elected. new impetus unques tionably will be given to the prosperity wave. "Washington speculators are reeping a harvest of money from the present bull movement on the market. Speculation has increased to a marvelous extent, as might have been anticipated, and nearly all the speculators have entered the mar ket at the right time. "The great majority of Washington speculators are interested in Steel and have made big sums off the rapid advance in quotations on this security. Rails also are popular, although not nearly so much so as Steel. "It Is more or less dangerous to make forecasts regarding the stock market. but Steel. I think, Is very likely to hit 2= before the bull movement reaches its apex of advance." PRETTY IRLS TOAM ARMENIAN SUFFERERS Ministers Make Appeal from Pulpit for Assistance.

The high cost of living has hit the Zoo and If food prices keep soaring, the animal- soon will go on a cheaper diet. Most of the mighty beasts of the jun gle prefer meat and the lions especially I are particular about the grade of beef that is pushed into their cages. Em balmed beef and tainted flesh may pass the army commissary, but His Majesty, the King of Beasts, contemptuously sniffs and turns away from anything but the choicest of cuts. Some of the large semi-tropical birds al so feed on meat and fish and it costs about 50 per cent more than It did a year ago to satisfy their appetites. Even the price of stale bread, the bears' favorite dish, has gone up. Zoo officials attribute this to the fact that many fam tiles now buy the cheaper loaves, one and two days old, with the result that the akers' surplus, which goes to the Zoo, has been reduced. Cutting down the quality and kind Is not easy, since many go on hunger strikes when they fail to receive their favorite dishes. However. the Zoo officials are devising substitutes for some of the more expensive items on the menagerie menu. The warm weather yesterday brought out a record October Sunday crowd to the park and both animals and birds en joyed their last Sunday In the open. Win ter quarters will be ready for occupancy by the later part of the week. All except the hardy northern birds and some semi tropical specimens which can endure the cold weather will be placed in a sheltered aviary. The animals with few excep tions will occupy steam-heated quarters. One of the large South American con strictors has a bad case of indigestion. it has not eaten for more than two weeks ignoring even the most delectable mor sels, Unless Its dyspepsia improves it will be forced to swallow a couple of tender rabbits sometime this week. The Zoo population otherwise Is in good health. HORSE IN KITCHEN IARR D. Neighbors Object to Baltimorean's "Nice Little Hor."
