" MEDIATION PLAN 1S CONSIDERED President and Cabinet Dis- cuss Subject. NO DANGER AT VERA CRUZ General Funston Sends Message Say- ing No Attention Should Be Paid to Reports That Mexicans Are Threat- ening Waterworks There. ‘Washington, Muy 13.—President ‘Wilson and members of the cabinet discussed plans for participation by the United States in the Mexican mediation conference, to begin next Monday at Niagara Falls, Ont., and varfous problems which have arisen since the occupation of Vera Cruz by American military forces. Just before the cabinet met a mes- sage was received from General Fun- ston at Vera Cruz in which he de- clared no attention should be paid to reports that Mexican forces were threatening to attack the Vera Cruz waterworks. General Funston added that 200 sacks of American mail, destined for Mexico City and delivered at the break in the railroad, still lay in the tracks in possession of the Mexican outpost. He had no news of Private Parks, who rode into the Mexican Mnes and has not returned. Among issues the president and the cabinet had under consideration was the appeal from the Brazilian minis- ter at Mexico City to General Funston on behalf of five South Americans under arrest at Vera Cruz for “snip- ing” American soldiers from a tramp steamer. Three Brazilians are among the prisoners and the appeal, coming from a diplomatic representative of one of the mediating nations, presents a delicate problem. The manning by American forces of the lighthouse on Lobos island, oft Tampico, which Huerta’s foreign minister has protested is a violation of the armistice, also was taken up. TREAT ILL AT GALVESTON Army Hospital Will Be Opened In Big Hotel. Galveston, Tex., May 13.—An army hospital is to be established in Gal- veston in the event of war with Mex- ico, or if additional troops in any large number are sent to reinforce General Funston’s army now in Vera Cruz. A large hotel located on the beach front has been tentatively en- gaged. The war department, it is reported, will not attempt to care for the wound- ed in Vera Cruz. _ MAY BE GIVEN THE CHANCE Military Prisoners Willing to Serve in Mexican Mixup. Fort Leavenworth, Kan.,, May 13.— Fifteen hundred prisoners in the mil tary prison here can and will be press- ed into service in the event of war, ac- cording to a report sent to the war department by Colonel Slocum, com- mander of the prison. When the prisoners were lined up for review Colonel Slocum asked who was ready to go to Mexico. Nearly every one was willing to serve. HIS RELEASE IS ORDERED Vice Consul Silliman Held Prisoner at Saltillo. Washington, May 13.—Senor Oli- vera, the Brazilian minister in Mex- fco City, informed the state depart- ment that the Mexican government has ordered the immediate release of Vice Consul John R. Silliman, held a prisoner at Saltillo. The minister added that as soon as Mr. Silliman reached Mexico City he would obtain for him safe conduct to Vera Cruz. American Bank at Vera Cruz. Fort Leavenworth, Kan., May 13.— E. A. Kelly, president of the Army National bank, has left for Vera Cruz, where he will establish a branch of-| fice to care for the banking interests of officers and men of the Fifth brig- ade. A cablegram advised him to come at once, because the banks pay in Mexican money on a fluctuating gold Dbasis. Offer of American Red Cross Society Is Rejected. ‘Washington, May 13.—The Italian Red Cross has declined an offer of $5,000 tendered by the American Red Cross for relief of earthquake suffer- ers at Catania. The Italian organiza- tion sent this message through Am- bassador Page: “Italian Red Cross expresses is highest appreciation of your friendly generosity. Outside aid, happily. is not required.” DETERMINED TO FIGHT TO LAST Huerta So Quoted in News- paper Interview. TREDICTS LONG WAR Says “We Are In the Lion's hiouth, but the Lion WIill Not Find It Easy to Eat Us"—Endless Guerrilla War fare Wil Inva- sion, He Asserts. London, May 13.—“We are in_the Hon’s mouth, but the lion will not find it easy to eat us,” was the declara- tion of General Huerta in an extend- ed interview in Mexico City according to Luigi Barzini, correspondent of the Daily Telegraph. “We are showing the world how to defend a sacred principle, that of na- tional sovereigniy,” Barzini declared the - dictator told him. Huerta said he was determined to fight to the last. “Fate has willed that in my hands should rest the decision of life or death for our national independence,” Barzini quotes Huerta as saying: “I have no right to barter away the in- dependence of Mexico. For my own tranquillity and that of the country it is my duty to fight to the last, to fight to the death. B WIIl Resist “Imposition.” “We are small and weak in compar- ison with the power which threatens us, but we are conscious of our rights that are being trampled under foot. My government may be burned or pulverized, but it must remain at its post to resist American imposition. “If 1 were to give way I should de- serve to be cursed by future genera- tions as a traitor.” General Huerta predicted = endless guerrilla warfare if the Americans at- tempted to take Mexico City. He characterized the revolution as noth- ing but a masked American war, de- claring two entire companies of Amer- icans fought with Villa at Torreon in their American arms and uniforms. EARLY ATTACK EXPECTED Rebels to Press Campaign Against Saltillo. El Paso, Tex., Mey 13.—The Consti- tutionalist campaign against San Luis Potosi will not be pressed until after the capture of Saltillo by General Francisco Villa’s army. Robert V. Pesquieria, diplomatic agent of the Constitutionalists, made this declara- tion on his return from Torreon. According to Pesquieria the actual bombardment of Saltillo will begin in three days. Rumors that the Consti- tutionalists have captured Tampico continue. There is no confirmation. Carranzaist leaders regard the cap- ture of the port as of utmost impor- tance, because they believe the United States will not blockade Tampico against the importation of arms and ammunition to the Constitutionalists.

San Diego, Cal, May 13.—Four 500-ton steel coal barges under com- struction at the Puget sound navy yard will be brought here early next month for use at the government coaling station at La Playa.

According to the government’s man- date ‘the order does not specifically command search and seizure of dweli- ings, but persons “suspected” of hav- ing weapons will be required to sur- render arms and the order will be en- forced “as the authorities see fit.” BOARD WOULD END STRIKES Bill Drawn for Preventing Labor Tie. ups Involving Government. Washington, May 13.—The federal industrial relations committee has pre: pared a tentative draft of a bill for submission to congress creating a na- tional board of mediation and concilia- tion to prevent strikes and lockouts that may involve the federal govern- ment.
