The Statement

The preface of the statement ex-
planned that publication tonight was
made because knowledge of the criti-
cism already had reached representa-
tives of the press. Continuing the
statement was as follows:
There is no reason for. further
concealment of the difference which
has arisen between the American and
Mexican delegations. to which the
press has already referred, over the
provisional government for Mexico
which is at present under considera-
ton. The Mexican delegation, adopt
ing a principle advanced by the me-
dating plenipotentiaries, agreed to
the designation of provisional Presi
dent of a neutral. The American del
egation submitted its plan based on
the condition that the provisional
president shall be a Constitutionalist,
a condition which the Mexican flat
ly rejected, of it's own accord and
without even consulting its govern

for the rejection, so that they might
better be studied by the American
delegates, the Mexican delegation ad-
dressed to them the memorandum

National Board of
Managers Discusses
Proposition as

Appropriations Of $4,000
Recommended for the Branch

Washington, d. c. June II Especially
The House appropriations committee
has just recommended appropriations
of 1922, 500 for the support of the To-
gus, Maine, branch of the National
Home for disabled volunteer soldiers
and this amount will undoubtedly be
authorized in law on the Sundry Civil
bill. 1t is distributed as follows: Cur
rent expenses, $4,000; subsistence,
$4,000; household, $4,000; hospital,
$4,000; transportation, $500; repairs,
$4,000 and farm, $4,000. This is sim
ply the arbitrary plan of classifying
expenses, long in practice in the man
agement of these homes.
Ex-Representative James Wadsworth
of New York, chairman of the board
of National managers; Maj. Moses
Harris, the national treasurer, and
Gen. Joseph S. Smith of Bangor one
of the managers, were among those
present at the hearings. Representative
John j. Fitzgerald OF New York, chair
man of the appropriations committee,
criticized some of the appropriations
for Togus, holding that the admins
tration of affairs there is not as eco
nomical as at some other branches,

regarding the collision:
THE Kaiser Wilhelm II was run
into at $3.50 o'clock this afternoon by
the steamer Incemore, in a dense fog
10 miles southeast of st. Catherine
point The Incemore rammed the
Kaiser Wilhelm at right angles and
seraped along for some distance, but
the watertight doors in the bulkheads
kept back the water, which leaked into
one compartment Directly the fog
came on, Capt. Dahl had closed his
watertight doors to be ready for any
contingency.

the spot for half an hour the Kaiser

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 1.-THE
Huerta delegation to the mediation
conference issued a statement tonight
charging that the insistence by the
United States on a Constitutionalist
for the provisional presidency as OPP
posed to a neutral was "tantamount
to abetting and even exacting, fraud
and violence at the elections"
The publication of this statement
was unexpected by the American del
egates. When they learned of 1t, their
attitude was that the Huerta dele
gates were acting entirely within their
rights when they criticized the Amer
lean plan for the establishment of a
provisional government in a commu-
nication addressed to the Americans
themselves but they were greatly sur
prised by the Mexican delegates ac-
ton in giving it out. The Mexican
statement outlines the substance of a
memorandum dated June 18th, which
the Huerta delegates gave to the

Ewarts Boutelle Greene also were in

a merchant policeman employed by
neighborhood business men, held up
his hand as a warning signal.
Murphy was not in uniform and the
chauffeur paid no attention to him.
Apparently angered at the inattention,
Murphy fired one shot at the automo-
bile.
