REBELS ABIDE BY RESULT
Special bv United Press Wire.


Washington, May 29.-The posi-
tive statement that mediation cannot
now fail to settle the entire MeM-
can trouble was made by Secretary

lined the exact present status of ne
gotiations. For the first time Bryan
went on record and positively in
sisted that all dangers of recourse to
arms is passed for not In a single
question, he stated, has opposition
developed in Niagara Falls that can
not be overcome.
The secretary asserted that the
rebels will abide by the result. He
reported the result of the various
conferences that he has had with
Judge Douglas, Frances legal repre-
sentative. Carranza he said has been
very reasonable. Like President
Wilson he has insisted at all times
that no concessions would be made
to Huerta The unconditional retire
ment of the dictator was always in
sisted upon. CariNnza will accept all
of the terms proposed at Niagara
Falls, he said
1t became known to some of the
cabinet members for the fiYst time
that there has been no insistence on
the part OF the United States that
any one man be chosen as Huerta s
successor.

Story of Wreck.

Special b. Ia ted Press WTe.
Father Point, Quebec May %
Wireless messages to the Marconi
station here from Captain Kendall,
of the Empress of Ireland, both be-
fore and after the liner went down
and from the Storstadt which ram
med the vessel as pieced together
early today gave the following story
of how the wreck occurred:
The Empress according to these
messages was making her way
through the fog when, about 2:30
o'clock the siren of the Storstadt
was heard. At once Captain Kendall
ordered the liner hove to. The great
density of the mist, 1t is believed,
prevented the position of the oncOm-
ing collier from being accurately de-
termined and while the big passenger
vessel was still, the Storstadt sud
denly loomed through the mist and
crashed bow on, into the hull of the
larger ship.
Heavily loaded and lying low in
the water the Storstadt's bow appar-
emily went through the side of the
liner, tearing a big hole in her side,
The known fact that the liner went
down in just nineteen minutes is
taken as indicating that the collier's
speed could not have been reduced
Safety compartments in the Empress
would surely have prevented her loss
had the collision been other than
severe.

MARKED MONEY
IN BLACKMA|L
CASE NAbS MAN
George Boliver Arrested on
Charge of Forcing Blood
Money" from Fellow Coun-
tryman; Held for Grand Jury.

Because he is alleged to have tried
to swindle one of his fellow country
men, hard working man, out of $40
by blackmail, a man giving his name
as George Boliver, forty-two years
old, having no particular home, was
held in 1000 bail for the grand
jury by Recorder Pickersgill this
morning. The man was arrested
with the $40 of blood money, which
had been previously marked by De-
tective Sergeant Huff and Patrolman
Gutowski, about 8 o'clock last night.
John Zurecko, thirty-eight years
old, of $50 Barclay street, an en-
ploye of the Standard Underground
Cable Company, with his foreman,
Thomas j. Dover, appeared at police
headquarters at 6 o'clock last night.
Mr. Dover told Chief of Police Burke
that the man had received a letter
written in Slavish from Boliver, de-
manding $20 and threatening him
IL it were not paid quickly. The
chief placed Detective Huff and
Patrolman Gutowski on the case, and
arranged for zurecko to pay the 500
after it had been marked. The man
said he thought he knew where
Boliver was and the detective and
patrolman, after dark, accompanied
Zurecko in a search for him. They
went to Hope Lawn, Just outside the
city, and while Detective Huff and
Patrolman Gutowski remained in hid
ing, Zurecko went to the house
where he thought Boliver was. The
former told the latter that he did
not want any trouble and paid him
the marked bill, and walked with
him out of the yard in the direction
where the officers were hiding. AS
soon as they approached the spot
Patrolman Gutowski seized Boliver
and demanded the $40 bill. The Of
ficer was handed a tWo-dollar bill
and a one, though In the dark he
could not distinguish their denomina-
tions. The detective and patrolman
then brought Boliyer to the police
station, where Gutowski found that
he had not been given the marked
$40. The officer searched Boliver
and found the bill in one of his
pockets.

manding money he declares that he

Following is part of the letter to

Montreal, May 29:-Only twelve
women were saved when the Empress
OF Ireland was sunk, according to
dispatches received here early this af-
ternoon. They say most of the sur
vtVors were members of the crew as
the passengers in their berths had
little chance to escape owing to the
swift sinking of the craft. Many of
the passengers it is reported we're
killed in their berths when the bow
of the Storstadt crashed into the EN-
press side.
Twenty of the survivors of the En-
press have been reported to have
died from exposure. The total list
of saved now stands 377.
ship gone" was the laconic last
message flashed over the wireless
from the sinking Empress of Ireland
by Captain Kendall. The command
er had previously sent a brief ex-
| planation of his S. o. S. call but
the speed with which the liner went
down indicated the hasty and abrupt
sentences with which the wireless
flashed news of the tradgedy.
Not a word of positive informa-
ton mad been received at noon here

Whether women and children first"
prevailed is as yet unknown Stories
