Rock Hill, April 15.?The next ses- i sion of the Great Council of the Im- j proved Order of Red Men of South I Carolina will be held in Newberry, j The meeting comes next April, and this means also that the Great Council of the Daughters of Pocahonias will be in Newberry, too. <The invitation on behalf of Newberry was extended by Mr. Eugene S. Blease, for Bergell tribe. In selecting Newberry as the place I of next meeting, the Great Council | paid a signal honor to Newberry. Other towns and ciries desired the Great Council, but when the sentiment of the members was observed, they withdrew their invitations in favor of the "best city in the Siate. The Great Council session in Rock rHill was one or tne mcsi pieasant ana profitable which the Red Men in South Carolina have ever held. Great Chief of Records Wilson Brooks, of Chicago, who attended as the personal representative of the great incohonee, congratulated the at council especially upon the fact that during all the elections and upon every motion j f There was no division?the Threat j Council being unanimous in every action which it took. The retiring great sachem, Mr. E. H. Aull, of Newberry, was most heartily congratulated upon -?his fact by the acting great incohonee when the great chiefs were installed. | Newberry has long been prominent j rin the Great Council. In fac':, Bergell Tribe, in the matter of men whom she has furnished to the Great Council, tbas been and will long be the banner tribe in the State. Among t'aese men j is the governor of the Sta:e.

Memminger of Charleston, great Pocahontas, responded for it-he Daughters of Pocahontas. Both addresses were .'heard with interest and received with applause. The governor was presented to the audience and spoke for about 20 minuets. confining his remarks chiefly to the principles of the order of Red Men. At the morning session of the great council, Wilson Evooks of Chicago, great chief of records, representing the greac incohonee, was presented and made an address to the order, which was greatly enjoyed by the Red Men. The down pour of rain during the day prevented the carrying out of plans for some of the entertainment which had been provided for the visitors. Chief of these was the a;hletic programme planned by the association of mill operatives cf the Arcade and Vio'.oria mills, which had to be abandoned on account of the rain. In the afternoon the Red Men and Daughters of Pocamontas were* taken to Winthrop college, where a'reception was tendered 'them by President D. B. Johnson and members of ithe faculty and students. This proved to be one cf the features of the entortflinmpt-t n~ visitors, flc all WPre ~ ~ ' * delighted with the insti:utioii and the cordial reception given them. The Final Feature.

Huerta Must i Or Take the i THE MEXICAN DICTATOR GIVEN FINAL WARNING I'KESIDENT SEEMS SIKE OF HIS f'OFRSE. ' I Wilson Lets It be Known Tliat Time i Has Come to Check Mexican Insults* Washington, April 15.?With a majority of the ships of the American navy under orders today to proceed immediately to the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of Mexico, 'the United Stares government gave Jtroviswnai j President Huerta final warning that unless a salute were fired to the Stars and Stripes, witnin a reasonable time, !io atone for "repeated offenses against t)lie rights and dignity of the United States," serious eventualities would result. * It was learned tonight that Gen. T TtcViArk Kr Phoro'A nucrid, ? ucu nunutu uj - | O'Sliau^hnessy o: tLe proposed 1emonstration of the Atlantic fleet, argued that the episode growing out of the arrest of American bluejackets at Tampico was a fi; subject for arbitration at The H.igi*:?, ar.d said ihat he would appoint a commission ro investigate the incident. President Wilson, in an epip^iatic rrepiy,;through.Charge a (VSliaugunessy, is understood to have iold Geji. Huerta that the time for delay and evasion had passed and the American government would temporize no longer. Administration of-; flcials hold that insults to the flag and quesrions of national honor aret not subjects for arbitration. All information, official and otherwise, that reached Washington from Mexico City tended to show that Gen. j Huerta was unconvinced that the! United States was in earnest and thought the Washington government was bluffing. Some anti-American demonstrations a': Vera Cruz and o tier points were reported. A Determined Policy. Developments here today show clearly that a determined and.force till policy naa oeen aaoptea dv me president, which would be backed up by congress and enforced if necessary by the American army and navy. While expressing earnest hope for peace, ihe president unequivocally told members of the senate and house committee 011 foreign affairs that tne offenses of the de facto government at Mexico City could no longer be r/~,1or.o+or? -j r> i-J l.ih fl f Hiiprt;} nrvin plied with the American demands, seizure of the customs houses at Tampico and Vera Cruz and even the declaration cf a pacific blockade shutting off commercial intercourse with the ITnil-oH WDJlld hft fullv lUStified by precedents in international law. J It was established that no aggressive act, such as the landing of marines or the shelling of any towns or the seizure of any pons, would be undertaken af:er President Wilson had personally delivered a message on the subject. The nearly unanimous approval that Republicans and Democrats gave the administrators initial steps made it apparent, ibowever, that should Rear Admiral Badger find dras!:ic action necessary congress would back up the American navy without hesitation. Huerta Informed. After orders had been issued today for a naval demonstration on the Pa-; cific coas: of Mexico as well as on tne i Atlantic, Gen. Huer a was advised j that the m:st powerful fighting force ; the American government ever has' assembled on sea, carrying thousands I of marines and bluejackets, is headed 1 for the seaport towns of the southern.; republic ready to enforce to the ex-. treme the American policy. Upon Gen. Huerta depends the next developments. He has about a week in wfcich to decide the question, for! the warships will not reach Mexican.) waters for several days. Meanwhile j the United States has notified all for-| eign governments of its attitude to- j, wards 'the Tampico incident and ofj the dispatch of the fleets to Mexican j waters. This notification is in line j i Salute Flag Consequences with the previously announced policy oi keeping foreign nations advised of N all steps taken by the American government in the Mexican situation. The position of the administration, as the president explained it to members of the senate and 'house committees on foreign affairs, and as it was substantially reviewed in tihe notes sent to all foreign governments, is described in a statement given out during the day. The statement, which was prepared by high administration officials, follows: "In discussions in official circles in Washington -of the present Mexican situation the following points have been very much dwelt upon. It has been pointed out that, in considering the present somewhat delicate situation in Mexico, the unpleasant incident at Tampico must not be thought of alonj. For some time past the 4e facto government of Mexico has seemed to tfiinJc mere apologies sufficient when the rights of American citizena or the dignity of the government of the United States were involved, and iiiis apparently xuaue iiu auvmpi ai either reparation or the effective correction of the serious derelictions of its civil and military officers. "Immediately af:er the incident at Tampico an orderly from one of the snips of the United States in the harbor of Vera Cruz, who had been sent fc?Jw.e*tOvtJhe . jSoetaffiCe-for tfae shfps' mail and who was in uniform and who had the official mail bag on his back, was arrested and put in o jail by the local authorities. He was subsequently nn/1 o nnminol niinioVirwont I tica^cu ClUU CL uwuiiuui |/mii?juu4v?4fc Inflicted upon the officer who had arrested him, but it was significant that an orderly from the fleet of the United States was picked out from the many trersous constantly going ashore on various errands from the various ships in the harbor representing several nations. "Most serious of all. the officials in charge oi the telegraph office a: Mex iro City presumed to witftnoia an orfic-ial dispatch of the government of the I'ni ed States to its embassy at Mexic) Ct.y until it should have been sent to the censor and his permission received to deliver it and gave the dispatch into the hands of tJ.ie charge d'affaires of the Haired States only upon his personal and emphatic demand, he having, in The meantime, 1 ^,1 w/mi aw aIi n n r> a1 c ICiii UCU ' kill UU511 UIUC1 vuauu^io ".uav. a dispatch had been sent him which he (bad net received. Studied Insults. "It can not but strike anyone who has watched the course of events in Mexico as significant that untoward incidents such as these have not occurred in any case whe**e representatives of other governments were con cerned, but only in dealing with representatives of the United States, and that there has been no occasion for other governments *o call attention to such matters or to ask for apologies. / "These repeated .offenses against 'the rigfnts and dignity of the United States, offenses not duplicated with regard to \ the representatives of other governments, have necessarilv made the impression that the government of the United States was singled out for manifestations of ill will and con tempt. "The authorities of the state department are confident that when the seriousness and the cumulative effect of these incidents is made evident to the government of Mexico that the government will see the propriety and the necessity of giving such evidences of i s desire to repudiate and correct these things as will be not only satisfactory to the government -of the Uni'ed States, but also an evidence to the res': of the world as an entire change of attitude. There can be no loss to the dignity of the de facto government in Mexico in recognizing in the fullest degree the claims of a great sovereign government to its respect."
