After discussing the matter with the
directors the conclusion was arrived at
that It would be Impossible for trie Kerr-
viile fair association to ere't a suitable
building in time to allo»> the Manufac-
turers' Club to install .<• good exhibit and
to make suitable d' corations. It was ex-
plained to Mr. Sc'jreiner that a represen-
tative exhibit of San Antonio manufac-
tured goods would occupy at least 2,500
square fee,.
A tee ative agreement was arrived at
thjj, 'l the West Texas Fair Association
«•". ued to invite the Manufacturers' Club
to exhibit at Kerrville next year, the
club would make a special endeavor to
send a good exhibit.
It was explained to Mr. Sehreiner that
the manufacturers of this city value the
trade and friendship which they receive
from the hill country, and that although
It was too late to send an exhibit, the
Manufacturers' Club would request Its
members to attend the Kerrville fair in a
body.
The committee which Ts handling the
details of the exhibit the club is sending
to the Kendall County Fair, which opens
at Boerne September 3, reported that ar-
rangements are well In hand and that a
creditable show will be made. Charlei
Graebner Is chairman and Is being as-
sisted by Walter Steves, ,T. C. Rice, G.
G. Geycr, .T. F. lvllne, Paul Krueger, H. W.

It Is expected that President J. F. Kline
will appoint another committee to make
arrangements which will insure a good
show of Sail Antonio-made goods being
sent to the Atascosa County fair which

German Ambassador Declares That He
f Has Had No Relations With Gen-
eral Victoriano Huerta.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 7.—The State
Department today Issued the following;
"The German ambassador has informed
the State Department that he denies for-
mally the whole contents of the story of
the Providence Journal about his alleged
relations with General Huerta, and desires
that this statement be given to the press.
As the department has no information on
the subject, it regards this expression of
the ambassador as satisfactory.
PROVIDENCE. r!TTAug. 7.—The Provi-
dence Journal today prints the following:
"The statement of the German ambassa-
dor not being available in full, It is im
possible to deal with it in its entirety
But so far as It denies the accuracy of
the Journal's story concerning the German
filot to involve the United States with Mex-
co, It is absolutely false.
"The State Department's lack of 'official'
knowledge of the facts detailed in the
Journal's story does not necessarily have
any direct bearing on the Journal's asser-
tion."
