To the bereaved sympathy is ever
extended but our mother tongue fails
sadly to reflect the depth of feeling
which is ours for one whom sorrow
and anguish doth possess, and Grief
indeed is hard to comfort. Death has
his rigorous laws unparalleled, unfeel-
ing. All prayers to him are vain, and
to will what God doth well is the only
science that gives US any rest. The
wandering of the soul in dreams, the
sudden images of vanished things,
tones from some broken harp's de-
serted strings, the strange unborn
sense of coming i'll, suggest that we
live and move upon the brink of view
less worlds, yet know it not; and those
whom death hath parted from our lot,
may be far nearer than we think. We
are all tutored by suffering, and learn
to pity those in affliction and to COM
fort sorrow is uplifting. To Reece
Dickie, who in the last few years has
babe sad farewell to wife, daughter
and granddaughter, all near and dear
to his heart, we would offer sympathy
sincere and the consolation Longfel-
low suggests in these brief lines:
Thus do we walk with her and keep
unbroken
The bond which nature gives,
Knowing that our remembrances
though unspoken
May reach her where She lives.

Niagara Falls. Ont.-No strings are
attached to General Huertas prom
lse to resign the Mexican presidency
as soon as his country is politically
pacified." His delegates 10 the me-
diation conference took occasion on
saturday to say publicly that he does
not intend to hide behind any techm

In following the newspaper &C
counts of the conference here the
Mexican delegation reached the con-
clusion that their recent statement
setting forth the attitude OF General
Huerta towards demands for his re-
tirement had been misinterpreted in
some quarters II had been said that
under the language OF his pledge to
retire when the country was politt
cally pacihed General Huerta might
insist on holding office until all guer-
rilla bands were dispersed.
On that account another statement
was issued by the ranking member OF
the Huerta delegation.

ED WITHOUT CHANGE.

of 275 to 50.

Washington.-All three bills on the

gram passed the house on Friday,

when the final test came and the vot-
ing went through quickly
The .Covinaton interstate trade

HUERTA'S ACTION
MAY CAUSE WAR
MEDIATION PROCEEDINGS MAY
BE DISRUPTED BY ATTEMPT TO
BLOCKADE TAMPICO.
Government Maintains That Huerts
Does Not Have the Right Under
International Law to Close Port
and Intercept Vessels.

Niagara Falls, Ont.-Tampico once
United States and Mexico. Fearful
that events may transpire there
possibly within the next forty-eight
hours-of nature that may disrupt
mediation negotiations, many of the
principals of the conference here are
filed with apprehension
The anxiety is provoked because OF
the situation in which the United
States has been placed by General
Huerta's determination to blockade
the port of Tampico to stop the land
ing of munitions of war for constitu-
tionalists.
The Washington government, it is
understood, feels that it must prevent
at all hazards the exercise of a block
ade by a government that is not rec
ognized as possessing the right to
perform such an act under interna-
tional law. Should the Huerta gun
boats attempt to intercept and search
vessels believed to have in their car
goes arms and ammunition for the
constitutionalists, it is said here that
American war vessel would interfere,
as orders have for some time been
in the possession of Rear Admiral
Badger to keep Tampico open to com
merce. The gravity of the act by the
United States might even cause Gen
eral Huerta to withdraw his delegates
from the Niagara Falls conference.
