The meager wireless dispatches sent

had apparently heard the call for help
Sunday night. AS the Seydlitz could

The difficulty of obtaining news by
wireless concerning the burning ship
was increased by the fact that the
radio station at Cape Race. which was
disabled in an early spring blizzard.
at present has a very limited range.
After sighting the burning vessel
the Seydlitz Immediately called BY
wireless for assistance. and response
came from the Franconia, fifty miles

and the Olympic, 200 miles to the west,
headed for New York.

not ebe distinguished.
No Beats Discovered.
As, no small boats were discovered
in the vicinity and as the Olympic had
passed not far from, the scene twelve

here that the vessel caught fire some
time after midnight and that all hands
were rescued by some ship which had

The position. as given by the

Washington. May 5--General Car
rama and the constituttonalists were
practically eliminated from proceed
ings OF the three South American en-
voys who have undertaken to solve
the Mexican problem by diplomacy.
Y In telegram to General Carranza
the mediators announced that In view
OF his refusal to agree to an armistice
with General Huerta. they withdrew
their invitation to him to send a per-
sonal representative to participate In
the mediation negotiations.
The mediators told the constita-
tionalist that as long as he maintained
his present attitude, they must de-
cline to treat with shim. General Car
rama had inquired in a note to the
envoys what subjects n special repre-
sentative might be required to discuss.
pointing out that II { the general prob
lem OF pacifying Mexico was proposed
he would not authorize any one to
participate in the negotiations.
Complaint =, Wrong Person.
He added that he agreed to mediate
only the Incidents which had brought
out the controversyShet the United
States and Mexico. holding that 1t
should have been the constitutionalist
leader to whom complaint about the
insult at Tampico and other offenses
originally should have been made.
In their telegram tonight the media
tors quoted Carranza's last note 70
them. adding that, as long az he main
tanned that attitude, they must decline
to receive representative from him as
they could not separate the incidents at
Tampico and elsewhere which had
brought about friction between Mexi-
co and the United \, States from the
general subject Of pacifying Mexico.
Rebels eliminated.
Early In the day II became known
that, in view OF the unyielding atti-
.ts1tlu Of the constitutionalists. media
tion, virtually would be limited to the
arrest OF American marines at .Tampico
and other offenses which had brought
the HuertA government and the Unit
{ ed States to the verge OF war.
The language OF the telegram sent
by the medistOFs leaves open to Car
rama the privilege OF sending spec
ial representative to participate inpeace
nesotiations whenexer he - willing to
arrange an arntetice with Huerta.
