Hon of the New Haven scandal. The attorney- general opposes the inquiry. The administration has lieeu advise-d of a serious v dissension among the Carranza forces la Mexico, j There has been a break, it is reported, between , Villa and Obregon, the constitutionalist commander ; the west coast. Carranza is described as favor- , lug Obregon. The situation is regarded as en- ilaiigeiing the- American plan of encouraging the COB- , Mitutioii.ilists to drive Haerta from power. A minimum weekly wage of JW for women em- , ployed iu factories was reroaamended by the waah ington state conference called to decide on a mini ilium rate of pay subject t.e tile state- minimum wage ] i-oiiiiuissioii.

The bill making tipping and the taking of tips I .in indictable- offense has passed the Canadian senate committee of the whole, practically without oppo-t sition. The- bill was introduced some time ago by V Seiiat. r Davis, a western se-nator. and at first excited much ridicule.

Former Vice-President Adlai E. Stevenson is in " Chicago for medical treatment. He lias been ill " poor health for some weeks and finally elee-ided to " come to Chicago for treatment by specialists.

II is probable that among the federal officers * is the « minder whose refusal to comply with II Bean-Admiral Kayos demand for a salute to tlm " stars and stripes in reparation for an insult to the " American Bag precipitated the American occupation III of the port Of Vera Cruz. The Mexican federal troops under command of if General Zaragosa have evacuated Tampico, leaving ig manv wounded. The constitutionalists under Gen- 1 eral Goaaales and General Cahailero, with 7,00t 5 men. are entering Tampteo. For live days the ,J lighting was severe and many were killed and wounded on both sides. Casualities are believid ■d to be as great as during the fighting which oc- c- curred prevloaa to the defeat of the federals by y General Villa at Torreon. who reported his losses s at 1 500 and those of General Velasco. federal com mander, at about 3.000. General Gonxalea and , ,, General Caballero have announced there will be no looting by constitutionalist soldiers. Looters, ae- cording to the orders, will be shot to death.
