WHOLE RANGE OF
MEXICAN TROUBLE
Is Regarded by the Mediators
as Involved between Uncle
Sam and Huerta.
SnY AsseeIATEe pnEss,

WASHINGTON, May 5.-The text of
the Mexican mediators' telegram to
General Carranza eliminating him
from the mediation proceedings which
became known today, disclosed for
the first time that the mediators held
that all the difficulties which con
tributed toward the present situation
in Mexico bear either directly or in
directly on the solution of the pending
conflict between Mexico and the Uni
ted States"
The mediators declare in their ans
wer that all these differences Should
be made the subject OF consideration
in the negotiations" for whose sue
cessful conduct I'VE have deemed it
indispensable to suspend hostilities.'
Should Carranza not deem it~so the
mediators state they will be COM
PEELED to withdraw. as inopportnne
the appointment of a Constitutionalist
representative.
This message from the mediators
gives the first authoritative expression
that they considered the whole range
of Mexican difficulties including the
Huerta-Carranza issue as having a
bearing on the issue between the Uni
ted States and Huerta.

COAL MINERS ORDERED
TORETURN TO THE MINES
BY the Executive Committee of
the United Mine Workers
of America.
IN THE KANAWHA FIELD
And to Continue Operation of
Mines until a New Con-
tract is Signed.
tnn Anne elArra rpxn.,

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 81
Coal miners of the Kanawha district
of West Virginia were ordered today
to return to work and to continue the
operation of the mines until either a
new contract was s:gned or negotia-
tons with the operators were severed.
This action was taken by the inter-
national executive board of the Uni
ted Mine Workers OF America, which
is in session here after it had heard
a committee from the West Virginia
field.
William o. Green, secretary-treas-
urer, said that most of the miners
already had returned to work on the
advice of the international officers.
The dispute had to do with the inter
probation of clause in the contract
which expired April i and which stat
ed that the miners were to continue
work thirty days after the expiration
of the contract or longer in case ne
gotiations with the operators were
still pending Some of the miners
held that the negotiations were at a
standstill and quit work.
The board also decided today that a
committee should be appointed to
draft policy the board should pursue
in the Colorado strike Mr.. Green
said this committee would probably
be named late today or tomorrow.
Otherwise, he said, the Colorado situs-
ton was not touched upon.
