“NO DEMAND FOR INDEMNITY MADE| Dnited States Waives Claim Against Mexico. AMERICAN PLAN OFFERED Mediators Submit to Huerta Delegates the Proposal of the Washington Gov- ernment for the Pacification of the Southern Republic. Niagara Falls, Ont., June 10.—Mexi- co will not be asked by the United States to pay war indemnity. The Huerta government has ° learned through the American delegates that the Wilson administration will be con- tent te have set up in Mexico a stable government to succeed Huerta rule. The submission of the American plan, ments from the delegates of the Unit- ed States, removed all doubt that this oountry is disposed to make any un- neocessary drain on Mexico's depleted ilnances. The mediaters submitted to the Mexican delegates the counter pro- posals of the American government for the pacification of Mexico. It provides the method of transfer- ring the executive power in Mexico City from the present regime to a new provisional government, which shall in a few months conduct elec- tions for president, vice president and members of congress. Compromise With Rebels. Should there be any new sugges- tlons from the Constitutionalists, the United States government will en- deavor to arrive at a compremise. ‘When an agreement is reached the results will be placed before the media- tlen board and the Huerta delegates. The expectation is that if the Consti- tutionalists are willing to discuss the peace plan with the American gov- ernment an agreement can be reached in a short time. The mediaters are insistent on their original terms—declaration of an ar- mistice and broadening the discus- slon from international to internal questions. The Constitutionalists are willing to meet the mediators on a gatisfactory basis as to the latter point, but they are absolutely deter- mined against declaring any armistice. With this view the American gov- ernment is more or less in sympathy, and a compromise arrangement is be- lieved to be in sight.

He reported that Max Blum and George Duvall were released from custody in Mexico City Saturday after- noon. They were held as spies. DENIES IT'S JOHN D. TOWN Fres Spesch Agitators Will Be Un- H molested. Tarrytown, N. Y., June 10.—Advo- cates of free speech, who have recit- €d their grievances against Tarry- town because of the refusal of the board of trustees to grant permits tor public street gatherings, for the first time were forced to listen to the grievances Tarrytown holds wgainst them. President Pierson told Upton Sin- clair and others who appeared as pe- titioners for permits to hold street meetings that Tarrytown's chiel &rievance was that the village had haen referred -to by them as “John D. Rackefeller's town.” This Presidsnt Piersqn declared unfounded, as Mr. Rackefeller has no interests in the village. It was explained that the streets of Tarrytown belong to the abutting property and are subject only to traf- flc control by the trustees, who can- not grant permits for meetlngs in them. —— MISS WILSON UNDER KNIFE President’s Daughter Submits Minar Cperation.

Chicago. COURT INSTRUCTS VERDICT Plans of the Defense Fizzle Out Fol- lowing the Introduction of Endear- ing Letters Written by the Diva's Husband to Another Woman, Chicago, June 10.—Mme. Ernestine Schumann-Heink, the singer, ~was granted a divorce from Willlam Rapp, Jr., whote ardent epistles breathing love and devotion to Mrs. Catherine Dean of New York were the sensa- tion of the suit. The victory for the famous con- tralto came when Superior Judge Sul- livan instructed the jury to return a verdict in favor of the complainant. The hearing was marked principal- ly by the emotional letters introduced in support of the charge that Rapp should no longer be the husband of the diva and the repeated intimations that the defense would prove allega- tions against the singer which weuld offset the conduct charged against her husband. No attempt was made to contradict the authentieity of the letters credit- ed to Rapp and written in impassion- ed words to Mrs. Catherine Dean of New York and the evidence of the defense failed to show moral obliquity on the part of the opera singer. - Mme. Schumann-Heink showed her joy at the verdict and declared that she would speedily journey to the Bayreuth Wagnerian festival, in which she is to take a leading part. “I've got about as much chance as a celluloid dog chasing an asbestos cat through Gehenna,” said Rapp after a colloquy with his attorney, former Judge Ben M. Smith, before the verdict was brought in. Boy and Teacher Drowned.

The land is capable of bearing two crops a year, according to D. W. Mead, professor of hydraulic engineering at the University of Wisconsin, a mem- ber of the commission. “The ‘district is .little above - sea level, and is ravaged by overflows,” Mr. Meade said. ‘“The land, which is very productive, could bear two crops a year. Instead, it has not averaged two crops in five vedrs. The people are always in a pitiable condition.” A. P. Dayis, chief of the United States reclamation service, and Colo- nel W. R. Siebert of the Panama ca- nal commission, are two other mem- bers of the commission. They expect to spend four months examining the district and preparing their report. China has appropriated $25,000,000 for the work of reclamation. Dis- bursement of this sum was placed in the hands of the Red Cross Society. ADVOCATED BY CURTIS GUILD Establishment of School for United States Diplomats. Chicago, June 10.—Establishment of an American national z2cademy of diplomacy on lines similar to those of West Point and the Naval acad- emy at Annapolis was proposed here by Curtis Guild, former governor of Massachuselts and former ambassador to St. Petersburg, in an address be- fore the Chicago Bar association. “American soldiers have the best possible education,” said Mr. Guild. “It is more necessary that American diplomats should receive a thorough technical training. It is an interna- tional proverb that Russia has gained more by diplomacy than she has lost by war.” Many of the forest fires attributed to railroads are not caused by sparks from locomotives, but by cigar and cigarette butts thrown from smok- ing-car windows. near Catter, Women’s Silk Gloves In black, whiteand colors Regular 50c gloves 42c¢ Regular §1.00 ’’ 89c¢ Regular$1.50 ” $1.29 Regular §1.75 " $1.48 Read Ploneer want ads.
