Mexico City—Resentment against
the United States and Americans be-
cause Washington does not recognize
the Huerta government seems to be
growing here, although the anti-Amer-
ican movement has not yet assumed
a menacing phase and probably will
not. Thus far it has been confined
principally to newspaper suggestions
that a boycott be declared upon Amer-
ican products, coupled with the use
of the word "Yankee" in editorials in
as offensive a manner as the writers
can employ it.
Scores of shops have posted placards
in their windows reading, “No Ameri-
can goods sold here.” This is not es-
pecially significant, because the pro-
prietors of most of the shops where
the placards are displayed are either
Spaniards or other foreigners, or ordi-
narily do not vend merchandise made
in the United States. Thus far no
Mexican, so far as known, has refused
to sell goods to Americans or rejected
United States money.
One big dry goods store placed in its
show window a manikin dressed like
Uncle Sam bearing two satchels. One
was lettered. “I am going away,” and
the other, "Goodby. Mexicans." An-
other figure, that of a Mexican wom-
an, was labeled, “I indorse the boy-
cott."
Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the Brat sec
retary of the American embassy, when
he saw the figures, looked up the pro-
prietor of the store and suggested that
probably some 5,955 American custom-
ers might not approve such pleasantry.
The proprietor promptly removed the
figures.
Some talk has been heard among the
lower classes of an anti-Americans

Boys Bury Skeleton and Profound
Discussions Follow.
Newton, N. J.—The Sussex County
Historical society has acknowledged
that it was hoaxed by a band of
school boys. Learned members of the
society had held many profound dis
cussions over a skeleton dug up re-
cently by workmen at an excavation
near the Barrett homestead, in Main
street.
The amateur archaeologists had
about decided the skeleton was that of
an Indian. Preparations were being
I made to have it set up in a private
1 museum.
The boys who perpetrated the joke,
however, whispered their secret to
their friends. Soon it was common
property that they had found the skel-
eton in the garret of the Barrett bouse
and burled it Bo that the laborers
would dig it up. The skeleton used to
be the property of Dr. Thomas Ryer-
son, now dead.

Caused by Refusal of Washington Gov-

call Asked For—Smelting Company
Sending Employees Away.
The exodus of Americans continues.
A report reached here that, alarmed
at the prospect of a total cessation of I
rail traffic due to the activity of the 1
rebels, the American Smelting and Re-)
lining company is sending its fami-
lies from Aguascalientes to Vera Cruz
by a special train and is trying tn
• barter a steamsiip to transport them
from Vera Cruz to New York.
Those Americans here whose opin-
ions are worth while do not hesitate
to pronounce the diplomatic situation
as between Mexico and the United
States impossible They favor recall-
iner \ mbnssador Wilson and sending
here a commissioner to take np the
question of recognition with the gov-
ernment whose communication with
Mexican officials would not be ham
pered by embarrassing personal and
official relations in the past. It is not
questioned that the continued retain
ing of Henry Lane Wilson here con-
stitutes a grave impediment to an un
derstanding being reached by the two
governments. The sooner Washington
appreciates this and acts the sooner
will Americans in Mexico see a pos-
sible way out of the tangle
Examine your refrigerator at home. Is it per-

Chicago.— Cyrus H. McCormick, pres-
ident of the International Harvester
company, made public here the report
of the corporation for the year 1912,
which shows a net profit of $16,395,-
597.16 on a total income of $126,518,
237.62. The capital stock is $140,000,-
000, and the surplus on Dec. 31 was
$31,586,544.06. Ia bla comments on the
general situation last year Mr. McCor- I
mick says:
“The year 1912 was one of excep-
tional prosperity for the farming com-
munity throughout the world. The
production of the principal grains in-
creased almost 20 per cent over the
preceding year and yielded a crop
value considerably larger than any pre-
vlous record. Tbla created an increas-
ed demand for harvesting machinery,
tillage implements and other farm ap-
pliances and enabled the company to
make a substantial gain in the gross
volume of sales. The Increase effected
in net earnings, however, was not pro
portlonate to the gain in volume, owing
to the reduction in selling prices of the
company’s principal lines.
“The expansion of the foreign trade i
continues. The sales of harvesting ]
machinery abroad increased 23 per
cent, and the sales of other farm im- j
elements, engines and tractors increas-
ed 14 per c ent over 1911 The foreign

Japanese public generally is convinced
that the land bill is a racial and not an
economic measure and hence a blow
to national pride, and it feels that the
world must be taught the necessity of
equal treatment of the whites and non-
whites. I
The Tokyo newspapers are loud in
their praise of President Wilson's zeal
in his endeavors to preserve the tradi-
tional friendship, and they recognize
the difficulties which confront the pres-
ident of the United States in the con-
fusing conflict between state and fed-
eral rights.
The Niehl Niehl is of the opinion
that the question as to whether the
Washington government can procure
equal rights for the Japanese depends
upon the strength of Japanese diplo-
macy, and it urges the government to
take a firm attitude
A joint celebration uf the Japanese
and American peace societies here was
attended by 1.6 Japanese. Speeches
were made b} Count Okuma, former
minister of foreign affairs; Baron
Yoshiro Sakatani, mayor of Tokyo, and
Tsunejiro Miyaoka, who was coun-
cilor of the Japanese embassy at Wash-
ington in UMm;. All of the speakers en-
deavored to clarify the situation, and
all decried jingoism.
Count Okuma was loudly applauded
when he compared the attitude of the
California legislators with the anti-
foreign movement in Japan half a cen-
tury ago, which he looked upon as an
abased race prejudice.
"We despised foreigners," he said,
"because they looked different We
did not consider them human beings
Japan finally saw the falsity of its po-
sition and became an admirer of every-
thing western. The same causes un-
