EUROPEAN POWERS
URGE SUCH ACTION
Meanwhile the U. S. Fleet Is
on the Way to Mexican
Waters to Enforce De-
mand of President Wilson
Other Preparations Are
On

Washington, D. C., April t6.--Huerta
has promised Charge 0'Shaughnessy to
salute the American flag in apology for
the arrest of American bluejackets at
Tampico This news was received at the
White House to-day just as Secretary
Bryan and Acting Chairman Shively of
the Senate foreign relations committee
went into conference with the president.
Unless Huerta changes his mind, the
crisis promises to be over within TWEEN
ty-four hours. The text of the de-
spatches from 0'Shaughnessy was not
made public, nor was any formal state
ment made describing them. No orders
have been issued to ships already steam
ing toward Mexico, nor was there any
change in the plans for enforcing the
presidents demand.
Some officials have expressed view
that after Huerta has complied and
saluted the American flag, some of the
ships now under way might be turned
back, but certainly not before.
The only condition that Huerta at
tached to his promise was that the
American ships fire salute in acknowl-
edgement. Officials close to the presi-
dent explained that this was in accord
ance with naval practice and precedents.
Other dispatches from Charge o'Shaugh-
messy are expected to-day, but both the
president and Secretary Bryan are con-
vinced by those already in hand that
Huerta had yielded to pressure from
Washington and the despatch of the
fleets to back up the demands.
European powers advised Huerta to
apologize to the United States at once
to end situation which threatened
grave consequences. Friends of the
American dictator also assured him that
unless the salute was fired to the Amer
lean flag the seizure of the ports of
Tampico and Vera Cruz and the block
ade of Mexico by the American fleet was
the Washington program.
President Wilson and the other admin
istration officials awaited developments
while the fighting ships and marines
we're hurrying down the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts to Mexican waters. The
White House officials had nothing to say
on the general situation beyond denying
the published reports that President
Wilson was displeased with Charge
O'Shaughnessy for close association with
General Huerta. The messages from
O'Shaughnessy apparently no longer
were being delayed or intercepted.
President Wilson cancelled his trav-
cling reservations for tonight to White
Sulphur Springs. w. Va, where he
planned to join Mrs. Wilson, but he
may go there tomorrow.

BLOODIEST BATTLE
OF THE REVOLUTION
Was That for Possession of San Pedro
Federal Casualties Are Reported as
3,5Oo-Rebel Loss Is I'm
known

San Pedro de Las Colonias, Mexico
April l6.A survey of the battlefield OF
last week shows that the battle for the
possession of this city was the bloodiest
of the revolution. The battle reached
a climax Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
In all, 200 rebels were wounded. The
rebel dead will probably never be known,
because of the wide area covered by the
battle.
The federal loss is at least $500 killed,
wounded or driven into the hills to
starve. The federal army would prob
ably have been annihilated but for the
failure of the rebel column assigned to
attack on the north to arrive on time,
thus leaving an opening through which
the federals escaped.

10 CURB NEW
 YORK EXCHANGE
Would Impose Penalties for Use of
 uIative Transactions.

WASHINGTON. March 2-Curbs on the activities of the New York stock exchange were proposed in bills in which the Senate Banking commit tee today opened hearings. These measures would impose severe. penal ties for the use of the mails in con- nection with the speculative transac- tions.
 Regarding the hearing, Senator Ow-- en said: We should like to have it known that we are not actuated by any spirit of hostility We merely want to frame a bill that will correct the fragrant abuses which were so thoroughly shown up in the money trust investigation. We want to pro tect legitimate business and put an end to the use of the mails in pro- noting fraudulent speculations. We believe that we will have the sym pathy of all honest financiers and bus mess men in the work. The presi- dent, we know, is in sympathy with the general proposition for such leg islation"

CARPENTER NEVER

PARIS, March 2.-It. is not believed here today that Georges Carpenter, the French champion heavyweight of Europe, will meet Jack Johnson, the black. Carpehtier is not yet grown, being still under 20 years af age and though still growing 1t will be sev- eral years before he attains his full weight and solidity. Until then his managers would scarcely risk a bout with the negro fighter It is consid- cred here as quite likely that Car pentier may become champion of the world later, winning from Johnson's successor. It would be the first time France ever held sfth a a~champion- ship.
