Little Disorder

Houston, Tex, November 1.-THE first
day of the strike of trainmen on the At
lantic division of the Southern Pacific
railroad ended without disorder and to-
night both OF the officials of the railroad
company and the four union organiza-
tions involved expressed themselves as
satisfied with the days developments.
President w. i. Scott of the railroad
company announced that, besides two
trans continental passenger trains op-
Grated today between El Paso, Tex, and
New Orleans that passenger service was
maintained between Dallas and Beaumont,
Houston and Galveston and Houston and
Victoria, Tex. No attempt was made to
move freight and an embargo has been
placed on the receipt of perishable COM
modities.
President Scott issued statement to
the strikers announcing that the door
was still OPEN if they cared to return
to work.
At the headquarters of the strikers
union officials stated that they were in
receipt of information that only four
trains had been operated on the lines
involved since the strike was made er-
fective.
Hope for Settlement
Hope was still felt in many quarters
that the federal board of mediation and
Cancellation, which has been enlisted to
compose the situation, might secure a re-
sumption of work pending arbitration.
Railroad officials have consented to this
method of settling the strike. Union Of
ficials have refused to say whether they
would sanction such an agreement.
Information that JLiius Kruttschnitt
chairman of the executive committee OF
the Southern Pacific, had stated that the
road was willing to discuss with repre-
sentatives of the different union organiza
tions the question of inaugurating a sys-

organizations, was received at the strik-
ers' headquarters without comment A

would stand by their original contention.

Refugees Arrive

New YORK, November 14-With very lit
tie money, few personal effects. but bear
ing many complaints concerning condi-
tions in Mexico that forced them to
leave that country. % refugees arrived
here today from Vera Cruz aboard the
steamship Mexico. In the party were ID
Americans, nine men, four women and
one child, all from mining camps near
Torreon.
Emeterio de la Garza. who was a pas
senger on the Mexico, denied reports that
he was formerly a confidential agent of
Provisional President Huerta. but ad-
mitted he was relative OF the present
minister OF war. DE La Cara further
denied that his mission to this country
was in the interests of 1Ilerta.
Charles p. Thompson, a mining engineer
formerly of Boston, who was employed by
a British mining syndicate. told of the
escape from the Torreon district, which
he said was infested with rebel bands.
The American refugees. he said, made the
trip from Torreon to Vera Cruz in wag-
ons.. on trains and OH foot when rebel
activities forced them to quite more rapid
means of transit. Mr.. Thompson said
conditions were worse than was generally
known here because of the depreciation
of Mexican money and the consequent
lack of supplies and lack of adequate pro-
lection from bandit bands

Must Have Assurances

Washington. November 1.-THE
washington government will not re-
sumo negotiations with those officials
close to Huerta who are now urging
further parleys until assurances can
be given of Provisional President
Huerta's intention to resign
This was the status of the Mexican
situation late tonight. Efforts by eoun-
sellors OF Huerta to induce John Lind
at Vera Cruz to reopen the entire sub
ject had not been successful up to a
late hour, it was reported here Mr..
Lind refused to go back to Mexico
City unless some definite promises
were forthcoming from General Huerta.
Chairman Bacon of the foreign rela-
tions committee. in discussing dis
patches from Mexico city stating that
Huerta's counsellors were seeking to
reopen the negotiations, declared that
the only condition upon which that
could be done would be the complete
surrender of Huerta.
Though administration officials con
tinued to be optimistic of the support
they were getting from the great pow
ers abroad, they did not discuss the
situation in Mexico City beyond indi
eating again that Huerta's elimination
was inevitable.

No Comment ON Dispatches

Dispatches from eonstitutionaIist
Headquarters at Nogales, Sonora, an
nounoing General Carranza's absolute
refusal to accept any transaction
with foreign nations looked toward a
regulation of Mexico's internal affairs,
was not commented upon by govern
ment officials here. 1t was suggested
in some quarters that General Car
ranza's declaration was intended
chiefly to allay any feeling in Mexico
that he was entering into alliances
with the United States. a situation
that might be made an issue, 1t Is
realized here, and develop discord
among his followers.
The Washington administration, how
ever, through William Bayard Hale, it
fs stated on the authority OF persons
in President Wilson's confidence, has
never offered mediation or any other
interference with view toward regu-
lating Mexico's internal affairs. The
sole purpose of the parleys through
Mr.. Hale, it is pointed out, has been
to obtain assurances of protection for
all foreign interests in the event that

FIGHT.
OVER NEGRO
|SL|KELY
Long Imprisonment Of Accused
Phagan Staying Accessory Is
Cited by His Attorney.

A last fight to secure the trial of
Jim Conley, the negro star witness In
the Frank trial, held as accessory
after the fact to the Pbsgan murder,
was instituted Friday when w. NJ.
Smith, attorney for Conley, turned
over to Solicitor Dorsey a written de-
mand that the case of his client be
disposed OF at the present term of the
Superior Court
The drawing up Of the demand plea
followed a series of futile attempts by
Smith to get Conley's case before
Judge Hill. The trial date now is
pending indefinitely.
The delivery of the document to
Solicitor Dorsey was unofficial. He
will read it Friday afternoon and
upon his decision as to the tustifica-
ton of it's request will rest further
action by Attorney Smith.
According to Smith, should the So
licitor not consent to a trial before
the end of Judge HIS present sit
ting. December 20, he will file the doc
ument with the court Monday and a
legal fight to sustain it will be made.
While the basis for the demand was
not revealed. It is understood that
the negro's long stay in the Tower
without a hearing OF his case will be
cited. Conley has been held a pris-
oner throughout the summer and
since the end of the Frank trial
On several occasions he was
brought into Judge Hills court, but
each time postponement OF his
hearing was granted
