If Mexican Ships Attempt to Seize Cargo of Arms |. and Ammunition of An tilla United States May Interfere

Associated Press Dispatch) ) WASHINGTON Jupo- '

WASHlNGION, June 4. -The approach of two Huerta gunboats to Tam pico, intending to blockade the port of Tampico and seize the cargo of ammrlni- tion consigned to the consti- tutlonalists a board tn e steamer Antilla, en route to Tampico from New York, flying the Cuban flag, pre- sents a new crisis in the Mexican difficulty. To the Washington government the situation is fraught with perils for mediation, with a possibility that it might pre- cipitate war between the United States and Mexico.
 The gunboats are due to reach the port of Tampico about ) o'clock Monday morning. The purpose of the United States to sup press an attempt to block ade the port and prevent in- terference with the Antilla was indicated when Secre- tary Daniels issued an of flclal statement, announc- ing that. while no new or ders have been given Rear Admiral Badger. there has been no change in the gov ernment's policy with refer ence to the desire that the port of Tampico be open to all commerce.
 Huerta brought about the crisis by ordering the gun boats Saragosa and Bravo to blockade Tampico and seize the Antilla $ cargo. Huerta notified the powers of his intent to seize the cargo consigned to the bel ligerents against his sover- eighty as contraband of war.
 When Badger notified the navy department regarding the gunboats, which are be- ing followed by the Amer ican cruiser Tacoma and the gunboat Sacramento, Sec retary Daniels immediately left church and hastened to his office. The president conferred over the telephone with cabinet officials and the mediators at Niagara Falls. What the American warships will do wh en Huerta's ships attempt to seize the Antilla, no official in Washington would say. Should the American gov

WHEAT HIGHER
 THROUGHOUT DAY Government Crop Report Monday-Closing Prices
 Are Easy

Chicago, June 6.-Notwithstanding tho fact that the government crop report would be due on Monday, restricted busi- ness today in wheat. the market ruled higher throughout the session. Closing prices though easy. were shade to hc to lsaAc above last night. Corn finished at a net advance of ;s@Ac to 1c: oats were unchanged to l4@ssc higher. and pro- visions with a gain of 7Is@i259c.
 Rumors of export sales at Duluth and active demand from domestic millers tend ed to harden prices, as did the prospect of unsettled weather in the harvest re- zion southwest.
 Commission house selling of wheat on the advance during the last hour of trad Ing resulted in a setback. The downward pressure was largely que to estimates that the winter crop in the 10 leading states would be lo7ooo,000 bushels more than last year.
 Corn went sharply higher and developed much activity as a result of the arrival or Argentina shipments in Europe out of condition. Oats, which at first were easy, owing to good crop reports, gained strength later with corn. Provisions went up grade, influenced by hogs and grain.

SHARES OF EASTERN ROADS LEAD GAIN Believed Pending Decision in Freight Rate Cases
 Responsible

New York, June 6.-After several days Of inactivity the stock market today sud- denly became active and strong. Shares of the eastern railroads led the advance. As it is. these roads, which are concerned in the freight case, the upturn was as- sociated with Washington reports that decision was forthcoming shortly. Wall street houses received advices from Washington that Chairman Harlan of the interstate commerce commission was hur- rying to complete the text of the deci- sion and that it might De made known within a wek. Another report was that the decision might come out in a day or two.
 Another factor in the upturn was the news from Washington that the Senate committee on interstate commerce might not report at this session two of the administrations three bills dealing with corporations which yesterday passed the House.
 At the close there were substantial gains in many instances.
 American stocks in London again were inclined to sag. All the leaders were de- pressed at the outset although in most cases recessions were slight. Lehigh Val ley once more was particularly heavy The market quickly stiffened, however absorbing moderate offerings from Lon don without difficulty.
 Despite the recent exportations of gold, the banks statement showed gain in cash of $5,000,000, which was somewhat larger than had been expected.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, $1.054,000. United States 2s reg istered declined A per cent on call on the week.

Market Summary

New York, June 6.-The range of prices on the stock exchange this week was held within narrow limits, and speculation was slow. There were few changes of im- portance, and professional traders, whose dealings constituted the Bulk of the busi- ness were not inclined to commit them selves heavily.
 The freight rates case in which a de- cision was expected shortly, the uncer- tain status of Mexican affairs, and dull business conditions all tended to repress speculative activity.
 Money rates held easy, despite the con- tinued outflow of gold to Europe. For eign exchange rates rose to the high point of the movement The cables re- ported an uncertain state of sentiment abroad on account of the Ulster crisis, and French political affairs. which was at times reflected in the sale of securi- ties here for foreign account.
 Sentiment at home was affected by the course Sef affairs at Washington on which Wall street was inclined to place bear ish construction. Hope of a business re- vival in the near future were hardly as generally expressed as was the case a month ago. The feeling in financial cir cles, nevertheless was cheerful. and the securities market showed a firm undertone as a rule.

WEATHER MARKET IN
 COTTON EXCHANGE
Fear of Rains in Texas Proves Stronger Influence
 and Market RecOvers

New Orleans, La, June 6.-It was a weather market today on the cotton ex- change and while favorable map caused selling in the early part of the Session and decline of to points on the most active months, fear of rains in Texas over Sunday proved the stronger influ- ence and the market recovered. The best prices of the day were late in the ses- sion when the market stood points up to l point down, compared with yesterday s final prices. The close was at a net loss of ? points,
 The trade was at first inclined to be bearish on weather conditions because of the dry weather in the west and the showers in the east. The areas of low pressure on the northwest of the belt, however. caused uneasiness and fear that they would bring rain to the western belt over Sunday. This was intensified dur ing the morning by the report of scat tered showers in Texas. During the greater part of the morning offerings were quickly absorbed.

PERILS IN TIBET Sir Francis Younghusband, Who Had Treaty Signed in Lhasa

Washington.-Th perfls of mission in- to a hostile country through treacherous mountain passes to negotoate treaty
 with people who refused to enter into any negotiations are described in a com munication to National Geographical so- ciety at Washington by Sir Francis Younghusband, who headed the famous British mission to Lhasa, Tibet Sir
 Francis is now paying his first visit to America after having spent more than 20 years on the frontier and In the him terland of India.
 Instability along the Indian frontier and the approach of a rival power in Tibet drove England into the latter country, explains the soldier-diplomat It was sus- pected that secret negotiations were being carried between the Tibetans and Russia which would work to the detriment of England with her vast interests in India. Finally no progress having been made by attempted long dfstanced negotiating, since the Tibetans refused to negotiate, it was decided to send party to the sacred city of Lhasa itself. The escort of Sir Francis at the start was 200, but later the detachment was swelled to 4200 native
 Indian and 800 British troops.
 I've started in May" says Sir Fran
 cis I've halted 12 miles within the border to discuss with some Chinese of ficials the matter of a treaty regularizing our relations With the IIDetdnS, llDel De- ing under the suzerainty of China. We made little progress, however, and in December decided to push on to Lhasa. '
 The hardships of the winter trip over the Himalayas. the endless and fruitless negotiations with the Tibetan military
 leaders and priests and the siege en- dured by Sir Francis and 500 of his men
 for two months while surrounded by 20,- 600 Tibetafls in small inclosure on one of the high plateaus are described with the final fruition of his efforts, the sign
 ing of the treaty in the palace of the Dalai Lama himself in the forbidden city. the attendant celebration and the peace
 full journey back to India.
 'I thought at one time I had gone a
 step too far in insisting that the treaty
 be signed in such a sacred and famous place, knowing that my government would
 be as well satisfied with document rat flied in my own tent or anywhere else, 50 long as 1t was valid." continues Sir Fran
 cis But chung to my point. feeling sure that the influence of such a setting
 on the Tibetans and the people of the territories that bound their land would greatly enhance the value of tho agree ment, and so 1t turned out.''
