The scenes about the entrance to the
mill were pathetic when the families
of the victims learned of the disaster.

to gain admission. Several of the
fricnZied women rushed upon the Off

ones. Young children ran up and down
the streets crying for their fathers.
Later it became necessary to call addi-

women and children to their homes.
The officials at the mill refused to
allow any one to enter the yard where

ARBITRATION. ONLY HOPE
Contra! American Peace Nego-
tiations Still DeadIocked.

Washington, April 24.-The Central
American controversy is no nearer a
settlement, according to dispatch re-
ceived at the state department from
Philip Brown, the American charge at
Guatemala, cabling from La Union,
Salvador. Mr.. Brown says the vari-
GUS questions involved continue to be
discussed. but that the deadlock is
still on. He holds out no hope of an
early agre ement.
Both the United States and Mexico
are striving to bring about some un-
derstanding between the belligerents
whereby the resumption of hostilities
will be averted. Long conferences
were held at the state department be-
tween Assistant Secretary Bacon, Am
bassador Creel of Mexico and Minis
ters Mejia of Salvador and Calvo Of
Costa Rica, as a result of which it
was announced that important devel-
opmerts may be expected within the
next twenty-four hours.
In the present apparently hopeless
state of affairs it has been determined
that the only way out of the diff
Guilty is by arbitration of all the ques-
tions in dispute and therefore Mic
aragua, Honduras and Salvador have
been urged to agree to q proposition
of that nature.
