United suport from the great pow
ers abroad for the American policy
toward Mexico, shown in a variety of
Uniet diplomatic activities.' gave
Preaidant Wilson and Secretary Bry-
jm a confident feeling Thursday that
the elimination of Gen. Victorlano
Huerta as Provisional President of
Mexiao soon would be an accomplish
ed fast.
< That tha financial blockade insti
tuted by the United States had tied
the parse strings of Europe, that
diplomatic pressure was being exert-
bd incessantly on all sides at Mexico
City, that close friends of Huerta
were applying tbefr Influence and
persistent reports saying Huerta had
gone Into mysterious seclusion raised
the hopes of the Washington govern
ment that at last It was making defi
nite progress toward solving the Mex
ican problem.
An exchange of cablegrams with
Ambassador Page, an agreement by
Crest Britain to leave the solution of
the Mexican problem In the hands of
the United States, and an announce
>i;er.t that no moral or fluam .al sup- |
port would be granted by England to
the Huerta regime, set forth tn Ix>n
don preaa dispatches, created a favor
able Impression throughout official
sshlngton It was felt that Great
Britain. France. German* and other
ration* now stood together In ac
Quiescence to the plan of the l nued

might have arisen In this mun’rr
over the situation described In the
Mlspstc 1 es from Mexico Gltv Asked
Oho ut the word favorable . he ex
plained that he meant favorable to
a settlement"
Tbs President gave no details to
■how upon what hla optimism was
baaed, but he made It clear that the
primary condition of a settlement
was the ousting of Huerta and all
those wbo stood for the kind of gov
ornment he had baen conducting It
waa evident that the president had
received Important dispatches, but he
declined to say whether they were
from Mexico City or NogtTea. the
Constitutionalist headquarters. Lat-
«f, however. It was learned from oth
er high officials that the plan of
taanci&l Isolation was bearing fruit
Olid that the plan for Huerta's eleml
nation was being acquiesced In by
Mrelgn governments, especially some
of those which had previously recog
nized him and upon whom he had
come to rely for aid.
One of the Important factors in the
fl^tt|gtion, which caused Washington
calmly to await developments, was
the report through authoritative
Janneli that members of thelj.uerta
:lal family were divl lee. gome of
t im'urging his resignation to avoid
ernatlonal complications. They
S re reported to be using ^v^ry ef-
t to prevail upon him ro make a
formal announcement of retirement
ot a fixed date. The situation has
Progressed to the point, In the view
of many officials, where even a defi
nite rejection of the American de
mands by Huerta would not alter his
future materially. Confidence pre
vails that he Is drifting into certain
bankruptcy and can not resist much
longer the pressure exerted against
him.
Another Influence that Is expected
k to contribute to Haorta's overthrow
the extension of moral support to
the Constitutionalists. If pressed to
the the extremity, the American gov
ernment will lift the embargo on

Interesting factk brought out-at the
conference on the eradication of the
cattle tick at Columbia Saturday
were;
That cattle dipping vats cost from
|f>0, to $100, according to the loca
tion.
One vat will serve an area of be
tween island 20 square milee.
The tides could bb wiped out tn one
summer under the active eo-operation
of the State and federal authorities.
No other animals are hosts for. the
tick except cattle, with the posiible
exception of deer, which become In
fected oocidentally.
Tick eradicators should rely en
moral suasion ra|her than report to
the compulsory law.
There are about 40 cattle dipping
vets in South Caroline.
The federal quarantine has been
lifted In 14 counties by tbs work al
ready done.
Ticks cause the loss of more cattle
in South Carolina than all diseases of
cattle combined.
Ticks Impoverish cattle by their
continuous blood sucking.
Ticks Irritate the skin and cause
loss of condition.
Ticks reduce the value of hides.

Secretary Bryan Wednesday an
nounced that a statement would be

forth the policy of the United 8tat
towards Mexico. Whether or not the
statement will be In the form of
communication to Congress by Presi
dent Wilson hoe not been disclosed,
but some of the diplomats at Wash

ment has been under consideration
several days and In Secretary Bryan’s
conferences with members of the dip

thM the forthcomlng-.proneunceinapt
woudd clearly define tbh attitude of
the United States.
Such a statement, it is thought, not
only would reiterate the xiews that
the United State* never cod recognise
a government established by arbi
trary force, but would girH its
sons for refusing to recognise any
acts of the new oongreee and aa to
the validity of k>ona or conreealqnn.

Negotiations Reopened.
Hoxe
Members of President Huerta’s of
ficial family are working diligently
for the reopening of the negotiations
and claim to have the consent of Gen.
Huerta to make concessions which
they believe will be satisfactory to
the United States. The Mexican min
ister of the interior, Manuel Garza
Aldape, saw Nelson O’Shaughnessy,
the American charge d’affaires, late
Thursday and appealed to him to do
all in his power to Induce his gov
ernment to withhold action until the
Mexican officials could communicate
with Mr. Lind, now at Vera Cruz.
He based his appeal on the allegation
that they were unable to get in touch
with Gen. Huferta in order to present
to him Mr. Lind’s communication.
The American charge could give the
minister little assurance. Senor Al-
dape asked if Mr. Lind could b eper-
■uaded to return to the Capital, or,
failing that, if a representative of the
government might ^iot go to Vern
Crus nnd confer with Mr. Lind.

BURNS TO DEATH.
Sumter Woman Usee K

to
Mrs. E. I. Whooton, a white wo
man, living about five miles north of
Sumter on the old Booth place, was
burned to death Sunday morning
when she attempted to light n fire
by the use of kerosene oil. The ac
cident took place between 7 and 8
o’clock In the morning and death
followed from the shock at 3 o’clock
in the afternoon. Mrs. Whooton had
poured some oil on the wood, which
failed to catch, and thinking the
flame had died out, she poured more
oil on the wood. The blaze flared
upon as she did do, following the oil
into the can, which exploded, spilling
oil and fire all over her clothing,
which immediately blazed up, burn
ing every particle of clothing off her
and burning the skin off every part
of her body except the top of her
head and the sole of her feet. Her
husband tried to save her, but hit ef
forts were unsuccessful, as they came
too late. She was btdly burned
about the hands and wrists, but hts
burns were not considered serious,
although they ware extremely pain
ful.
