IjECT Y DANIELS ORDERS MOKE SHIPS TO MEXICO .Fourth Division of Fleet in Far East to Replace Ships at Vera Cruz. Washington, November 28.?Secretary Bryan tonight said that no official communication had been received here from Rear Admiral Fletcher or John Lind relating to conditions in the oil fields near Tampic. The fact that no repor?. had been received since tne cable from Admiral Fletcner relating to conditions in the vicinity of Tuxpam several days ago was regarded in official circles as an assurance ^ that there was no immediate cause for alarm. K When President Wilson left WashV ington for New York at noon Secre tary Bryan remained to receive offifc cial dispatches on conditions in the m revolution-torn territory. The only developments concerned the activity of the rebel forces reported to be ad vancing t-jward Tampico from Victoria. j F Secretary Daniels early today is-, I sued an order directing the fourth j division of the Atlantic fleet, now in : the Mediterranean, to proceed to the east coast of Mexico via Guantanamo. The ships to make the trip are the k Connecticut, Kansas and Ohio, or dered to replace t;j<e Louisiana, Michi f gan and New Hampsnlre, now in Mexican waters. The division will leave , the Mediterranean December 1, and should arrive off (Vera Cruz about two weks later. Rear Admiral Badger, commander- in-chief of the Atlantic fleet will direct this manoeuvre. L BODY OF MR. FINLEY ft IS LAID TO REST | J Many Government Officials Attend Funeral.?>'egr? Porters Bear ^ Body. F Washington, November 28.?Funeral: services for the late William Wilsonj Finley, president of the Southern Railway system, were held here this morning in St. Joseph's Episcopal church, (attended by many government officials and his former associates in the commercial and transportation world. As the body was carried into the church just before 11 o'clock all activities over the Southern Railway's 7,000 miles of road ceased for five minutes. Employees everywhere laid down their work, trains everywhere came to a standstill and in shops machinery ceased to turn. Officials and employees at headquar- j :ers of the company assembled in! I b front of the general offices on Penn- j L sylvania avenue and marched to the church in a drizzling rain. The body was borne by six negro porters, veterans in the employ of the railway company. neienas t amer-m-Law. Spartanburg, November 24.?If all the bitter charges and recriminations which the disbarment proceedings L against Charles P. Sims have precipiL tated are taken seriously, there is a m probability of the airing of several H nasty scandals in the courts. "Cock fighters, gamblers, atheists, Nonentities, pious cowards and devout oppressers of the poor" are some of the milder epithets applied by Leslie L. Allen, a cotton factor, in a statement issued to the accusers of Mr. Sims, who is his father-in-law. Mr. Sims himself telegraphed from Atlanta: "In reference to the disbark inent proceedings against me, I beg ^ to say that I am conscious of my inno\ cense; that I uave absolute faith in the fairness and sound judgment of T ' - *"L ~ ~ + eacn memuer ui cue suyi cmc luuh. i Therefore, I expect complete vindica- I tion when said charges are investi-1 gated." * j ^ Mr. Allen in his statement made ; L charges of the gravest nature against! ^certain of the lawyers who signed the | petition for Mr. Sim's disbarment, and j i concluded by saying: "Let hm with%tout sin cast the first stone." He call- | ed attention to the fact that a number | of the prominent members of the bar Ciad not sisrned the petition, or, as he , put it, "are not back of this persecution," and he asked: "In not the attack the work of the i personal enemies of Mr. Sms, seeking-' to use the courts to wreak personal; vengeance on him, and to gratify their ' k private spites, and have they not enlisted in their aid some ifpecunious j lawyers v'ho are anxious to secure \ his practice for themselves? Do the the lives of the instigators of this attack give them the right to throw stones?" There is much curiosity and speculation in Spartanburg as to whom forkmer Solicitor Otts, prosecutor in the Sims proceedings, had in mind when intimated that mere were possioiy (other unethical lawyers in Spartanburg who would be brought into court in due time.
