WASHINGTON, Dec. S. Pres. Wll
Fon Monday flatly refused to pledge
hl endorsement of the woman suf
frage movement. The bigftst rebuff
that the fair warriors of the votes
for women Jiavo mtL In their nation
wide campaign, came when they
made their appeal direct to the presi
dent In the White house.
He told them that he could only
act an president of the United States
ftt this time and as leader of a politic
al party which had already made
-pldeH to the people and added that
his hand3 were full In co-operating
with congress in the work of ful
filling1 these pledges.
In addressing the delegation of 150
puff racists. PreH. Wilson made it
clear that he could not act as an In
dividual, but only as a president and
that It would be extremely dangerous
or him, in the language of the street
to "start fjomething." He did not
Vouchsafe to the women suffrage, but
conveyed the impression that he was
not unfavorably disposed toward it.
He absolutely rejected their request
that he Indorse- the project in any
way at the present time.
Will (live Opinion If Asked.
He declared that when congress
comes to him for his opinion on wo
man suffrage he would give It, be
cause he could not on his own Initia
tive urge upon congress woman suf
frage legislation at the present time.
I'-Annu Howard Shaw, president
of the National American Woman
Suffrage association, was spokesman
for the delegation. She briefly re
viewed efforts of the suffragists to
gain legislation from congress and
haid that while they always had been
polltly received, their bills had been
"burled in committee."
Then she asked the president for
any one of three things: That he
send a special message to congress
asking1 for legislation enfranchising
women ly a constitutional amend
ment; that ho Include suc h a request
In a Rcneral message to congress;
that he endorse the movement to
create a suffrage committee in the
house.

Dr. Shaw added that such a com
mittee already had been created in
the senate. To these proposal Pres.
Wilson made a general reply,- He
opened by reciting the fact that as
president of the United States every
net of his must be made within cer
tain well denned limitations. He in
stanced the fact that even when he
went out walking he was practically
under arrest, being shadowed by se
cret service olllcers. He said that as
an individual he had no identity
whatsoever. As the leader of party
pledged to carry out certain legisla
tion he had no right to obtrude his
private views on congress for any
purpose whatsoever. He emphasized
the fact that certain members of the
rules committee of the house had
asked him what he thought of the
ld?a that a suffrage committee be
created and that he replied that he
might bo wise to create such a com

Between sobs and sighs she describ

when she entered the death chamber
'th next morning.
"I saw mv poor cousin lying on the
bed and her head was pretty near
off." sobbed the witness. "Her head
was pushed back under the railing."
She then described covering the
nude body with a sheet. Miss Knabo
was next handed the blood-stained

"This is the pillow." said the wit

ASKS $34,016,395 FOR
RIVERS AND HARBORS
WASHINGTON. Dec. S. Request
ing an appropriation of $31,016,395
for river anil harbor Improvements
and an additional $7,217,500 for con
tract work already commenced. Gen.
W. H. Blxby. chief of the army engi
neers. Monday presented his annual
report of Secy, of War Garrison.
Gen. Bixby drew attention to tne
fact that the appropriations asked
for by his department are nearly
$10,000,000 less than thos received
for the present tiseal year. The cur
rent estimates strike off $7,000,000
from the rivers and harbors appro
priation and deduct $2.SeO,000 from
the amount asked for in the sundry
civil bill. This constitutes a saving
of practically DO per cent of the
$51.00". Cmo appropriated by the last
rivers and harbors act and the .sundry
civil bill.
While no specific explanation is vol
unteered by Gen. Bixby as to the
reason fr this decrease, anny officers
say that it is due to the "economy
warning" recently issued by Secy.
Garrison in which he asked all bureau
chiefs to keep their estimates as low
as possible, eliminating all doubtful
items and cutting off all unnecessary
expenses.

the Works Were Inadequate.
LOCAL COMMITTEE TO
PROCEED CAUTIOUSLY

Figure on Get-Together
Scheme to Land Shops for

in joiix iicvry zuvnrt.
The Port Huron car shops of the
Grand Trunk railroad, despite their
inadequacy, employed 956 men in
1912. according to the latest report
of the Michigan commissioner of la
bor, and the average wage paid was
$2.36 per day, this not including su
perintendents and oltice help.
The car shops have not been equal
to the road's needs for some four
years, auxiliary works being main
tained at Elston, III. Assuming, for
conservative reasoning, that the shops
located in South Bend, and construct
ed to meet all requirements, would
employ only 1,000 men at the Port
Huron wage rate, it would still mean
a daily increase of $2,560 in South
Bend's industrial pay-roll, or approxi
mately J800.000 by the year.
"I am deeply concerned In this
movement,'' said Sam. Adler, clothier,
a member of the Chamber of Com
merce industrial committee, Monday
morning, indorsing what has hereto
fore been quoted from "Wm. Happ,
chairman of the committee, J. B.
Weber, president, and U. G. Manning,
secretary of the chamber ,and Mayor
Elect Fred W. Keller. "This is an
opportunity that the industrial com
mittee should not allow to get away."
Tie attended the meeting Jield last
week by the committee, and is well
pleased with the action taker.. It is
reported that the entire, committee
was not on hand, but all who have
been seen on the subject entertain fa
vorable views.
Much dependence is being placed
upon the co-operation which it is be
lieved the chamber will be able to
command from the next administra
tion, when negotiations reach the
)oint where municipal support is
necessary.
Is Delicate Question.
"We will have to proceed rather
cautiously," said Secy. Manning Mon
day. "The Grand Trunk isn't any too
deep in love with South Bend, and
we may have to overcome prejudice.
This will have to be done, if at all,
without bartering away the self-respect
of the city, or giving up rights,
the loss of which may prove a burden
to us in the, future." The committee
is generally of the opinion that the
Grand Trunk will be reasonable, as
suming that It can be interested at all.
L. C. London, druggist, la one of
the committeemen that did not at
tend the meeting Friday night, but
he Is none the less keenly Interested
in getting the Grand Trunk shop: for
this city if they can be had. He as
serts that everyone he has talked with
on the subject looks upon the shops
as a good thing for the city to get
after. "The News-Times did a good
thing," he says, "when It brought this
matter to the public attention, and for
the light it has thrown upon the af
fair. If we do not land those shops
it ought to be absolutely because the
Grand Trunk refuses to give us a
hearing."
The sub-committee to take up the
shop question with the road will be
named Just as soon as a date can be
fixed for a meeting with the Grand
Trunk officials
UivaLs May Co-operato.
Monday a hint comes from Michi
ganway that Kalamazoo and Battle
Creek may get together, especially
should the latter come to feel assured
that its chances of landing the shops
are slim.
Battle Creek has a somewhat sim
ilar condition In dealing with the
Michigan Central railroad that South
Bend ha with the Grand Trunk. If
the Michigan Central can be induced
to abandon Its main line through the
city, use the Grand Trunk depot to
the east, with enlargements perhaps,
as a union depot, and go through town
along the Grand Trunk right-of-way,
that city might be Induced to co-operato
with Kalamazoo to secure the
shops for the latter place.
The Kalamazoo plan is to have the
Grand Trunk abandon its present line
from Rattle Creek to Pavilion, and
follow the Michigan Central tracks
from Battle Creek to Kalamazoo, then
double-tracking the present spur from
Pavilion, touching the present main
line again at that point. About the
only shipping point along the pro
posed abandoned line would be Cli
max, a town of about S0O population,
and it would get Augusta, Galesburg,
and Kalamazoo instead.
The big question, however, is tho
Michigan Central, and whether or not
it w'll care to so co-operate with the
Gra.id Trunk as to make it a competi
tor at the above points seemingly an
unlikely consummation.
IDwever, If Kalamazoo can by any
process turn the main line of the
Grand Trunk into that city, its rivalry
with South Bend with regard to se
curing the car shops becomes a seri
ous matter.

South Rend Physician KGo Be

morrow in a Case for Re
vocation of License.
Special io News-Times:
INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. S. The state
board of medicad registration and ex
amination will meet here Tuesday to
hear evidence against Dr. II. A. Fink,
a prominent South Bend physician,
charged with prescribing heroin for
minors. The action is for a revocation
of Dr. Fink's license.
The charge was liled by attorneys
for 2"sewton Ilolycross, a South Bend
contractor, who charges the prescrip
tion was given his son, Raymond, by
Dr. Fink. The boy is said to have
purchased the dru -at Paul Wolter's
drug store in South Bend on the pre
scription. The charge is iilcd under the act
passed by the legislature at the last
session in which heroin was put on
the "black list" and physicians forbid
den to prescribe the drug to u-i ir.
A short time ago, it is charged,
yonng Ilolycross' parents noticed he
was acting peculiarly, as if under the
influence of a drug. After close ques
tioning the boy is said to have broken
down and admitted the purchase of
tho drug through the prescription,
naming- the physician. The charges
were prepared immediately and filed
with the state beard.
Raymond Ilolycross was one of the
boys involved in the -drug" expose
in South Bend last winter when sev
eral South Bend druggists were ar
rested charged with furnishing the
"dope" to minors. The cases were
dismissed, however, when it was found
the statute did not cover the particu
lar drug, heroin, which the boys had
been taking. They were lirst sup
plied the drug through an Assyrian,
Solomon Neimer. it was claimed, who
acted as a purchasing agent.
The agitation resulting from this
expose was the cause of the introduc
tion of the bill to prohibit the sale
or prescription of heroin to persons
known to be users.
The act provides that a physician
shall lose his license if convicted of
prescribing the drug to an habitual
user. In criminal proceedings a line
of $ur or not more than 5G00 and im
prisonment in the county jail not le
than io days or inr- than a year, is
provided for the lirst offense. For the
second offense the line is not less than
$-j00 or more than 51.00 and im
prisonment in the penitentiary from
one to eight years.
Druggists who sell heroin on pre
scription must keep a record of such
sales and report to the state board of
pharmacy.

morning by John W. Kites, present
deputy street commissioner, and can

Butler, under tho next administration.
It was the lirst time in years, it is
claimed, that daylight has found the
fallen snow of the night brushed aside
by the city's snow plows and friends of
Deputy Kites are figuring: that it must
have earned him several credit marks
on his application for appointment.
The mayor-elect and the deputy had
a brief talk during the early forenoon,
but there is no assurance forthcoming
that any promises were made.
Mayor-Elect Keller was a visitor at
the city hall Monday, getting ac
quainted with things. Several em
ployes about the building have been
called into consultation, and it has
spread a general belief that a number
of men, especially some in clerical po
sitions, are to hold their jobs, at lea.st
for a while.
.Deputy Controller George J. Martin,
for instance, is reported to have been
tendered a continuance of his posi

other opportunities open he declined,
stating that he would not stay less than
four years, and that before accepting,
he would have to know the name of
the controller who is to be hi.s chief.

has had some 2 50 applications filed
with him and received scores of calls
and letters for and against men whoso
names have been mentioned, and he
submits this as evidence that h is
having a merry time sifting out t lu
men that he wants.
And he isn't evening giving. out who
his applicants are. You couldn't pry
them away from him with a crowbar.
He has a line line of talk on general
ities, but try to pin him down t
something special, and he- changes the
subject by some funny story that he
heard when a boy. He admits that
with only appointments al his

that is as far as he will go.

Brilliant Maneuver Puts Troops

BATTLE BELIEVED ON
Expected Triumphant Entry In
to City May Turn Into
Fierce Combat.
KL PASO. Texas, Dec. S. On.
Villa, the. constitutionalist command
er, has had M3 entrance into Chihua
hua City blocked by an unexpected
movemont among the federals. It was
reported here Monday, following a
night of ativity among the rebels In
Juarez.
Humors say a battle Is going on.
Gen. BenevideH, commander of th
Jpuarcz garrison, spent the night at
his headquarters in constant tele
graphic communication with Villa,
who was 30 miles north of Chihua
hua Ci! All the telegraph otllces in
Juarez except the one In (Jen. Ilene
videa' otlice. were closed to prevent
lcaakge of information.
Battle lUlie h1 On.
Two trains were hastily made up
and sent southward ever the National
railways shortly after midnight. One
contained troops and the other med
ical supplies, provisions and ammu
nition. This indicated that a ha' '.ie
was in progress, but at On. Bene
vides no information could be se
cured. The secrecy encouraged reports
that Gen. Mercado had not allowed
his entire federal army to Mce tow
ard the border, but had reformed his
divisions, and through a brilliant
maneuver, had suce--ded in barring
the path of the federals near au:,
30 miles north of Chihuahua City.
The tralnload of provisions, ordered
by Gen. Villa to relieve famine con
ditions in Chihuahua City, is still
lying in the National railways yards
In Juarez. The rebel otlicer in
charge of the troops guarding th
rebels said that the line between
Juarez and Sauz was "being held
open for more tuportant business
than the transfer of provisions for
civilians."
Mystery About Ojxratioii.
For 4$ hours mystery has attended
the operations of both federals and
rebels between the Bio Grande and
Chihuahua.
Gen. Villa hal piannc-:! to enter
Chihuahua City jn triumph unl.v at

army, but all indications Monday
were that he would have to tight his
