CORDELE, Aug. 9.—The bunnv hug. tango, turkey trot and other modern dances are entirely too im modest in the opinion of the fair sc of Cordele who are accustomed to the waxed floors. Like th** slit skirt, such dances will probably not come in popular favor at any early time in this city. Chaperons at local balls recently have positively forbidden the new dances, and the young folk, no mat ter how ardently, hut perhaps se cretly, they may desire to introduce them, must let the waltz and two- sten still suffice. jD.

It was grown on U’-c stockade farm, and was sent to the i'° ’ station by Superintendent Tom Lanford. ministration with demands for Infor mation. At the conclusion of the conference shortly before 11 o’clock it was learned that the status of Envoy Lind is as follows: 1. That he has no definite proposal to make to Huerta or anyone else. 2. He will go right on to Mexico City, probably Sunday. 3. He will confer with American Charge d’Affaires O’Shaughnessy and communicate the facts he learns to President Wilson, who will then de cide the course to be followed. The facts show that Uncle Sam has called the bluff of Huerta "that Lin 1 must come bearing recognition or be regarded as a pernicious foreigner.' President Wilson’s Envoy will carry out the task with which he was charged when he sailed for Mexico, and Huerta and his Government will he held responsible for his protection in carrying out his task. Held a Counter Blast. The action of the President in sum moning the Foreign Relations Com mittee was made public in a signifi cant manner, and was construed everywhere as a counter blast to tbe irritating actions of Huerta. These were denounced to-day by competent State Department officials as intol erable and as those of a reckless pol itician who is trying to force inter vention or war on the United States. Aside from that official view of the case it was said the President plan ned for the first time to-day to place the whole Mexican case before both Democrats and Republicans of the powerful Senate committee which has primarily to do with treaties and tin 1 recognition of foreign governments and the formulation of new policies This invitation of the President wa also an answer to the statements by Republicans—and Democrats, too— that both parties in the Senate and House were left In the dark as to the negotiations of Mr. Pryan and the White House in Mexico. State Department officials intimat ed that the action of the President in summoning this important committee of Congress could not be separated from the threats of Huerta and the absolute necessity of letting Huerta 1 know that this Government would I | protect Mr. IJnd if there were nm doubt at all as to Huerta’s ability | or will to give the President’s person- | al friend and representative protec- j tion. Diplomatic Move Not New. Then 1 is nothing tjew in diplomatic ! usage in the case of a Government j which asserts it will hold another j Government responsible personally J for its personal envoy. The previous | Administration announced to one Government that it would hold its President personally responsible for j injury to an American citizen should he suffer without fair trial. The present Administration notified the Federal officials at Chihuahua that they would be held responsible for miscarriages of justice in a case in which the State Department was assured that American citizens had committed no wrong In the mind of officials who do not feel themselvea bound to make pub lic the acts of the Government, even when Huerta makes his acts public, the impression amounts to a cer tainty that Charg d’Affaires O’Shaughnessy has been instructed to say on his own behalf that this Government would de mind a per sona! accounting should the American envoy suffer any injury. Th *so officials say that any per sistence in wrong toward Lind by the MEXICO’S REPLY FAILS TO ASSURE ENVOY LIND OF ADDED PROTECTION Special Cable to The American. MEXICO (TTY, Aug. 9.— Reply ing to-night to a message from Secretary of Sta e Bryan calling attention to reports of threats made against the life of Envoy Lind, Foreign Minister Aldape re iterates the position of the Gov ernment in respect to mediation. Senor Aldape’s statement reads: "Answering your telegram to President Huerta the rumors men tioned are absolutely without foundation. Mr. Lind, like any foreigner, may pass through the country without being subject to any molestation. "American citizens, like other foreigners, have enjoyed, and will continue to enjoy, the most com plete guarantees on the part of the Mexican government and peo ple. All are under the protection of our laws, and the case of Mr. Lind will not modify our intentions and precedents. “Furthermore, there should ex ist neither fear nor anxiety re specting the security of foreign ers, for which there likewise is no foundation. “Respecting mediation, of which mention has been made, the gov ernment of Mexico already has made its declarations.” Huerta Government would be a con tingency' too fearful to contemplate. Awaits Lind’s Report. Secretary Bryan corrected the im pression to-day that it was proposed to give out simultaneously in Mexico (Tty and at Washington “the pro posals’* which Envoy Lind is bearing to Charge d’Affaires O’Shaughnessy. Mr. Bryan said thai the official statement showed that the purpose of the President was to make it plain that he would only announce a “new policy” with Mexico whenever he hai reached one after the arrival of Mr Lind In Mexico. Senator William Alden Smith charged on the floor of the Senate that a paid attorney and lobbyist of the Constitutionalist party in Mexico had the ear of the State Department and was attempting to intluence the attitude of the United States towani Mexico. The charges of Senator Smith ceased a sensation on trie floor of the nation’s highest legislative body. ”1 May.” said Senator Smith, with warmth, “that Sherburne G. Hopkins, an attorney of this city, paid counsel for flic Constitutionalists, who drew $50,000 from the Madero administra tion for services, has had the ear of the State Department in the past and present administrations. Herr Sum- merfeldt, a German citizen, personal friend of President Madero and of hio widow, for two years has been lobbying to Influence American ac tion in Mexico and is now in Wash ington assorting In a propaganda on behalf of the Constitutionalists.” Democrats immediately began »n effort to stifle discussion of the Mex ican question. Senator Smith would not be choked off. “1 claim.” he retorted to Democrat ic protests, “that thb* attorney has attempted to influence the Depart ment of State. 1 believe he had much to do with the removal of Ambassa dor Wilson. If the Senate wants proof, let it summon these two men and expose this junta.’* Bryan's Position Questioned. Senator James characterized the statements of Senator Smith as a se rious charge against the State De partment. Senator Swanson wanted to know why the matter had not been brought up in the Committee on For eign Relations when Secretary Bryan was present, instead of in the open Senate. “I said the State Department, not th<* Secretary,’' replied Mr. Smith. "Well, the Senator knows the Sec retary runs the department, retorted Mr. Swanson, warmly. "I have heard it so said, but 1 am not sure of it," said Mr. Smith. Chairman Overman, of the Lobby Committee, insisted that Mr. Smith should bring the matter before his committee. Mr. Smith denied the au thority of the committee and declared that what he had to say would be submitted on th** floor of the Senate. “It is my opinion.” interjected John Sharp Williams, “that there is an or ganized. syndicated effort with money behind it to bring about intervention in Mexico. The editorials of all the big papers have a suspicious same ness that makes it evident there is a concerted effort with money back of it. It is time we should pause. 1 do not feel even brave when talking about war with Mexico, a Country dis rupted and torn with dissensions.” Mr. Smith said his remarks were called forth by misleading statements printed in the Record concerning the Constitutionalists and he was not willing these reports should stand un challenged. It was time for the truth to come out, Mr. Smith declared. He said his purpose was to -make public on Mon day the report of his special commit tee tha: investigated conditions along the border, but he subsequently agreed to bring it up in committee first. Senator Crawford. Republican, coun seled moderation of speech in discuss ing the Mexican question, and by common consent the discussion ended. At the morning session of the For eign Relations Committee the Mexi can question was referred to only in cidentally. If Senator Bacon had any thing special to bripg up he postponed it because of to-night’s White House conference. No Demonstration as Lind Reaches Mexico. Special Cable to The American. VERA CRUZ, Aug. 9.—John Lind, personal envoy of President Wilson, arrived here to-day on the United States battleship Louisiana. He had sailed for Mexico from Galveston on the New Hampshire, but was trans ferred before bis arrival here. There was no excitement among the Mexicans in Vera Cruz over the arrival of the American envoy, whose appearance at Mexico City is expect ed to bring a culmination of the diplomatic crisis between Huerta and the United States Government. According to reports current when Mr. Lind arrived here, the American State Department plans to hold him here until Sunday before starting on the final stage of his journey to Slex- Ico City. This trip b) train Will re quire twelve hours. Mr. I.ind arrived before he was ex pected and took by surprise William W. Canada. United States Consul. Mr. Canada took immediate steps to welcome Mr. Lind, and it was under stood that the two would confer with Bayard Hale, who has been Presi dent Wilson’s personal representative. Though the Mexicans showed no excitement over Mr. Lind’s arrival, a thrill was caused among the Amer ican colony when it became known that the following wireless dispatch had been flashed ahead of the ship bearing him: “Governor Lind wishes to sec the United States Consul and Admiral Fletcher immediately upon his arrival at Vera Cruz.” No explanation for this conference could he secured before the arrival of Mr. Lind. With the arrival of the Louisiana and New Hampshire here the United States has a formidable naval representation. When Mr. Lind was seen on board the Louisiana he was reticent as to his plans of action. He intimated, however, that his departure for Mex ico City might be deferred until Mon day. Though there was no demonstra tion when the Louisiana came into port, a large crowd gathered as soon as it became generally known that th<* envoy was on board. Consider able disappointment was expressed when it became known that he would not land immediately. Whether this decision was reached because of threats against the envoy’s life is not known, but such is the current be lief. Lind In No Danger in Mexico, Says DeLa Barra. NEW YORK, Aug. 9. — Francisco Leon de la Barra, Mexican Ambas sador to France, w’ho became Pro visional President of Mexico when Diaz was deposed, to-day said that John Lind, President Wilson’s per sonal representative, would bf* shown every consideration and afforded am ple protection in Mexico. Talk of mob violence, he said, is not to be accepted as representing the views of the intelligent people of Mexico. "Mexico is facing a grave crisis," said Ambassador de la Barra, “but I know my countrymen would be the first to resent any insult that •night be offered to Governor Lir^ " WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH EXCURSION 86 round trip.
