retary Of State William ]. Bryan paus-
ed In the course Of his lecture to state

- Secretary Garrison on last Friday
ordered Col. Edwin p. Brewer OF the
Fourteenth cavalry at Fort McIn-
tosh, Texas, to demand the release OF
the five Americans together with $50
cattle and 80 horses held by the Mex
lean revolutionists at Hidalgo, Mexi-
CO. Secretary Bryan requested the
p,-xro mazda
public the order to Col Brewer, de-
clined to discuss the question Of what
would be done in the event the re-
volutionists declined to give up the
Americans and their property. 1t was
regarded as certain at the state de-
partment that Col. Brewers demand
would be compiled with promptly.
Hidalgo is on the Texas border, about
so miles northwest Of Fort Mcintosh,
and II is expected that the colonel will
execute his mission before many hours
pass. The attention Of the state de-
partment was called to the imprtson-
ment Of the Americans and the seizure
Of their property by Consul Garrett at
Neuvo Laredo, Mexico. When Consul
Garrett demanded the release Of his
countrymen the revolutionists told
him they must await orders from
Piedras Negras.
Washington. July IA: Represen-
tatives Of the $4,000 conductors and
trainmen of eastern railways who
have voted to strike for higher wages.
and managing officers Of the railroads
agreed at the White House today to
submit their differences to arbitration
under the provisions Of the Newlands-
CLAYTON act, which President Wilson
and congressional leaders promised to
make law by tomorrow night In the
meantime no strike will be declared,
officials of the employees brotherhoods
agreeing to an armistice until We'd
nesday night. This victory for arbi-
tration over the strike was the result
Of a two-hour conference at the White
House between President Wilson and
congressional leaders, both Republic
cans and Democrats, the presidents
and managers of the railroads and
representatives Of the Brotherhoods Of
Trainmen and Conductors. The agree
ment not only averted, temporarily at
least, the strike which threatened to
tie up railroad traffic generally in the
east, but smoothed out differences OF
opinion that had arisen in both houses
as to the composition of the board Of
mediation and provided permanent
commission to deal with railroad dis
putes. !
Washington, July IA: A proposal
outlined by Secretary Of the Treasury
McAdoo in a statement several days
ago amending the administration cur

Federal two per cent circulation bonds
by the issue Of three per cent bonds,
precipitated a heated discussion in the
conference of members Of the house
- L.. fn6ay-
After three hours fruitless argument
the conference adjourned tonight with
the members in a rather excited frame
Of mind and the McAdoo proposal
still pending. Although the refunding
section Of the bill had not been reach
ed in the consideration Of the meas
ure, Chairman Glass today offered the
McAdoo proposal as an amendment.
In a statement tonight Mr.. Glass said
the plan was designed to clarity the
meaning of the bill as to the disposi-
ton to be made of United States two
per cent bonds and to give assurance
to the holders Of such bonds, that the
government has no purpose to abro-
gate the circulation privilege attached
to them until the end of the 2O-year
period provided for in the refunding
process"
states appear to be again in the melt

Bulair apparently with the consent of
Greece and Servia to attempt the re-

burg that the powers In concert have
notified the Sublime Porte they will
not permit military operations beyond
the Enos- Midia line fixed by the Lon

reported and it appears that rumors
regarding a revolution in Sofia are
