 He Is survived by his wife, three sons and two daughters, Walter Levey of Pine Bluff; will and Leon, Jr., of Louisville, Kentucky, and Misses Pearl and Hazel Levey of Pine Bluff. He is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Ella Cambern of Wash ington.

WILL CARRANzA GIVE UP PRIZE? For Him to Mediate Means Relinquishment of All
 Hopes.
WILL NOT CEASE WAR
Few Believe COnstitutiOnaliSt Chief Will Consent to Participate in Mediation Conference on
 Terms Held Out.

Washington, May 30.-The adminls- tration is anXiously awaiting tonight for a sign from the A. B. c. mediators that hope can be entertained for par ticipation by Carranzza in the nego- tiations for the qualification Of MeXl- co.
 So Far Carranza has merely indl- cated his willingness to participate in mediation of the controversy be- tween the United States and the re- public of Mexico.
 The thing the administration wants him to do will require him to com pletely reverse his attitude as he has repeatedly expressed it to this government in the past few weeks.
 It will require him also to give up the prize for which he has been fight ing for a year just as he has it in his grasp, and this without recogni- tion or anything else which might be regarded as compensation.
 Except for the president and his closest advisers, who are helping him to carry out his policy, there are few in Washington who believe the thing is possible. and even the admin istration is unwilling to give it's reas- on for feeling optimistic.
 Certainly the Washington repre- representatives of Carranza, who are in daily communication with their chief do not believe he will yield on the wholesale demanded of him by this government.
 Carranza has already informed the A. B. c. mediators that he is willing to send delegates to the peace con gross to take part in the settlement of the international affairs of Mexico but he is not willing to agree to ali armistice It is learned from Niagara Falls the mediators are not willing to have him represented unless he does agree to narmistice.
 It is considered likely in Washington that he may yield on the subject of armistice, but will maintain his re- fusal on the subject of mediation of the internal affairs of Mexico.

 "I do not suffer one single pang of remorse. Neither does my wife. We fell that aaught will come of thls investigation, so far as we or any or our friends are concerned. We regret very much that Cooper is in jaii and I'm doing everything in my power to effect his release. Cooper is not guilty of any crime" !, Tlft arrests followed search or the Winters home last night by pri- vate detectives and local police or ficers, who assert they found, sealed in the basement wall, a hair ribbon. a red undershirt and red sweater which belonged to the missing girl. Questioned regarding theN clothing worn by the child when, she disap- peared, Mrs. Winters, the police say, described the sweater found last night. The cellar where the pieces of clothing were found was dug up to- day, but nothing was found. The police appear to suspect that the body of the child is buried somewhere near the Winters home.

The work of Identification is slow and exceedingly dificult--the bodieE are piled so close together--and not more than twelve have been claimed.
 Side by side with the dead forms of grimy stokers, silk-clad women with ears and fingers wearing scos..ly gems are stretched, stark and stiff. Little children are renosing peaceful Fly as if asleep, while the faces of scores of men and women arc distort- ed with expressions of the horror and fear that held them as they were plunged to their deaths.
 Additional corpses arc expected with the arrival of the government steamers Evelyn and Eureka, which have been searching for bodies since yesterday. Pent i'll the rlven hull of the lost steamer or floating down the icy waters of the St. Lawrence must be two bodies for every one resting here.
 Dozens of the recovered victims are entirely nnclad, while the majority are clothed only in the few scant garments in which they slept when the alarm rang out. There are not enough shrouds. available and by far the greater number of the bodies lie as they were picked up out of the water.
