NO |. s. TROOPS FOR COLORADO
WAR SECRETARY ANNOUNCES NO ORDERS WILL BE ISSUED
 FOR THEM TONIGHT.
Hundreds of Colorado People lm- plore the President to Send Regu- lars There to Stop Rioting.

Washington. April 27.--After a long conference tonight at the white house the president, Secretary Garri- son and Senator Thomas, Secretary Garrison annuonced that no orders sending federal troops into Colorado would be issued tonight. He said the situation would be taken up again to- nA)rrow morning.
 The president had before him at the conference a pile of telegrams from representatives of the mine owners and miners, state authorities and private citizens in Colorado, practically all of them appealing for federal troops
 Officials at the white bsxlse indi- cated that a final report from Repre- sentative Foster, who interviewed owners of the mines in New York today, was desired before the presi- dent reached a decision. Colorado members of congress, however, ex- pected that the orders for the move ment of troops. probably from Fort Russell, would go out tomorrow morning.
 It is understood that there has been doubt in the presidents mind as to his power to send federal troops into a state merely on the request of the governor. In this connection, section 1 of article of the constitu- tion has been closely examined at the white house. This provision is as fol lows:
 "The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union republi' can form of government and shall protect each of them against inva- sion; and on application of the legis- lature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence"
 Since the Colorado legislature has been summoned in special session for May i there has been a disposition on the part of the president to await action by the legislature. It is said, however, that he has not finally
  with the attorney general before act ing tomorrow.
 After tonights conference it was said word had been received from Representative Foster in New York that John D. Rockefeller, Jr., had flatly rejected all offers of arbitra- tion with the mine strikers. MT. Eos ter was expected to confer with J. c. Osgood, another of the largest Colo rado mine owners, before returning to Washington.
 A telegram from Governor Am mons was presented to the white house by Representative Taylor ask ing that a committee of army officers from Fort Logan be sent to inyesti- gate the Ludlow situation.

Charles Perceval, has chartered the British steamship Antillian, which was bound from Mexico with a cargo for Liverpool, by way of this port The Antillian's cargo was quickly un- loaded and she proceeded tonight for Tampico to report to Rear Admiral Cradock, commanding the British squadron in Mexican waters. The Antillian will be used, it is under stood, to transport any English refu- gees from Mexico.
 Two smallpox patients, young woman and her little sister, who came aboard the battleship Connecti- cut suffering with the disease at Tampico, were taken from the isola- tion ward on the battleship this aft ernoon and brought to the detention camp. The decks of the Connecticut were cleared of the refugees and crew when the patients were being removed The two patients are con- valescing and pr. McGlasson said there was no other illness on board the Connecticut The doctor of the battleship recognized the nature of the illness when the young lady and her sister came aboard and every precaution was taken to prevent the spread of the disease. The refugees and crew were all yaccinated.
 forty-foOt launch came into port tonight, bearing several Americans who had made their escape from Tampico and brayed the 465 miles of gulf water between Galveston and the Panuco river, in the open boat The refugees were employees of an Ameri- can dredging company. working near Tampico, and three days ago they took to the launch after filling 1t with gasoline as ballast and fuel. They were three days making the trip. The launch anchored alongside the battleship Connecticut and awaited the health officers.
 1t was learned tonight that the San Marcos probably would not sail for Vera Cruz until Wednesday in order that additional supplies might be placed aboard.

TINKER GUILTY
 OF KIDNAPPING
JURY AT oPELouSAs HOLDS W, c WALTERS GUILTY OF
 STEALING DUNBAR CHILD.
Verdict Takes Away the Possibility of Capital Punishment Which the Law Provides.

Opelousas, La, April 27.-"Guilty, without capital punishment" was the verdict returned by the jury here to- day in district court in the trial of w. C. Walters, itinerant tinker charged with Kidnapping 5-year-old Robert Dunbar. Under the laws of Louisiana, the verdict is equivalent to life imprisonment.
 The verdict legally determines the identity of the boy taken from Wal ters at the time of his arrest and legally clears a mystery that presents many unusual phases, including the ability of a mother to identify her own son. 1t means that the child claimed as their son vii, remain in the home of MT. and Mrs. C. P. Dun bar here. where he has been since the arrest of Walters more than year ago, and that Julia Anderson, now i'll in a New Orleans hospital, was mistaken when she testified at the trial that the boy was her own.
 Counsel for Walters have an nounced that if the usual motion for a new trial is oyerruled, they will appeal to the supreme court of the state.
 Walters was arrested April 20, 1913, nearly eight months after Robert Dunbar disappeared from a fishing camp on the banks of Lake Swayze. At the time of his arrest he was ac- companied by a boy who MT. and Mrs. c. P. Dunbar had identified as their lost child, but who Walters claimed was Bruce Anderson, illegiti- mate son of Julia Anderson. He claimed the woman had entrusted the boy to his care and she later identi- fled him as her son.
 So much doubt existed as to the identity of the boy taken from the tinker that Governor Brewer of Mis- sissippi refused to honor the requisi- tion of the governor of Louisiana for the return of Walters to that state until he had held test.
 Governor Brewer later honored the requisition, but attorneys for Walters appealed to the supreme court of Mississippi which on January 12, 1914, ordered the extradition of Wal ters to Opelousas for trial.

Fl Paso, Texas, April 27.-The re- and General Villa suddenly became the one topic of conversation here to- day on dissemination of informatio I brought in by refugees and the sud den departure of Villa for Carranza' s headquarters in Chihuahua.
 The two leaders were to meet to. night it was expected, to compose their differences over the attitude which the constitutionalists shall hold toward the United States and over grave problems of military com, mand.
 Refugees brought word that affairs between them had reached stage where one or the other must accept distinctly second position in the revolution.

 Significance was attached Co the departure of Rafael Zubaran, Car ranza's minister of the interior, for Washington. He left this morning and every effort was made to con. ceaI the fact. With Pesqueira here and Zubaran in Washington. there will be complete chance for discus sion of the capture of Vera Cruz through agents thoroughly familiar with sentiment in northern Mexico and military plar=.
 Carranza stht is awaiting a reply from President Wilson or Secretary Bryan to his disturbing note of last Wednesda%.
 This note, Carranza's aides repeat edly have explained, was intended as the basis for further diplomatic ex- changes. but among them the impress sion is growing that there will be no reply. Carranza asked that the American forces be withdrawn from Vera Cruz and the president since has made it clear that he has no such intention at present.
 Three special trans carrying sol diers and officers of the sixth and sixteenth infantry regiments arrived today and other trains with the re- mainder are expected in the course of the night and tomorrow.
 The situation along the Texas, Ari' zona and New Mexico borders was regarded as more reassurins. Refu- gees generally reported that they ! were not ill-treated, although some of them said that bandit bands were taking advantage ofsthe exodus to loot property left unprotected.

Senor Rojas note was transmitted at once to the three South American diplomats. who began a conference which lasted far into the night, dis cussing the next move in their peace plan. Secretary Bryan. having ac- cepted the offer of good offices when rendered the United States Saturday, fhe first step now is completed and the way paved for actual negotiations looking to peaceful clearing up of the situation
 Neither AmDassador Riano nor the peace envoys would make public the text of the Huerta acceptance. It was said. however, that Senor Roias replied briefly, accepting the offer and thanking the South American plenipotentiaries and the Spanish am bassador for their good offices with a reference to "the real spirit of soli- darity between people of a same race"
 No conditions are imposed in an offer of good offices consequently the reply from Mexico City was not expected to deal with conditions That stage will be reached when the peacemakers formulate their plans and make known how they propose to use the good offices which have been accepted It was suggested to- night that they probably would ask the Washington and Mexico City gov ernments tomorrow for statements as to what each would demand in tho event formal mediation were under taken, and that upon the nature o the responses to this request would depend the proposals next to be sub mitted
 Unofficial adyices from Mexico CIty already had made it virtually certain that General Huerta woul, accept the offer of the peace envoys but the formal announcement tOni5h tended to further relieve the slack ening tension of the crisis. The new was given to President Wilson, win expressed himself as greatly pleased though he would make no furthe comment.
 White house officials let it D known that they were earnestly dc sirous of aiding the South America diplomats and that no announc' ments as to points that would be Il sisted upon by the United State would be made or anything else don at this time which might emharra' their efforts Throughout oftlcl and diplomatic circles the belief W. expressed that success of the peac makers so far necessarily wou have a favorable effect upon the S nation, That even though thelr forts ultimately failed indirect dipI matte communication between U
 United States and the Huerta go ernment has been restored tenn rarily and the chance of a better U detstanding greatly improved.
