schooner Zealaudia arrived today from
San Francisco after an eventful passage

adrift and grounded again. She lies in an
easy position. and Captain Roberts has
every hope Of her being ultimately float
cd. Her crew of six men were transferred

partially
The Mexican Herald says.
1T is most fortunate that in such
jUncturas as this strike and riot at
Cananea the governments at Washing
ton and this city are so sincerely ami
mated by a desire to avoid making a bad
matter worse by harsh language and
mutual determinations. The conduct of
the Mexican government and the
Roosevelt administration has been
characterized by self-TestTaint and by
an evident fTiendliness which is crafty
ing to all serious and well-dispOsed peO-
pie or both sides of the boundary line.
II is quite invaluable now that Mex
lean and American labor is so often
mingled in many places. especially near
the border that troubles such as that
which has stirred the two. countries
should arise. There will in the future
be much need of tact and diplomacy on
the part of the local Mexican authOri-
ties and American corporation man
ayers, as well as private employers.
Very fortunately in the United States

unrightness and fairness of President

Mexico City, June 3.-There has been
no public excitement over the Cananea
riot, though much concern was shown
by American residents last night lest
the trouble might spread through I'M
wise action of the people of Cananea.
There was some Cen5uTe expressed Of
Consul Calbraith for what appeared u
he his one-sided appeal and call for aid
from his government. That more Mex
leans were killed and wounded than
Americans is thought to show that the
latter were possibly the aggTessOrs.
The statement of Colonel Greene that
the riots had it's cause in a SOciaistiC
campaign among the Mexican labOTeTs
is ridiculed as Mexican labOrers have
nowhere any SOcialistic organizations.
