AWAY BOWSPRIT
Accident to Keep Cup Defence
Candidate Out of the Races
for a Week.

While sailing OF Long Island Sound yes-
terday the Cup defence yacht Defiance
carried away her bowsprit The bolt in
the dolphin striker sheared off. putting
the strain on the spar and breaking a.,
but not completely off.
The yacht had been having manpuvres
in a fairly strong northwesterly breeze
When the accident took place the De-
hance was off Great Captains Island
about O'Clock in the afternoon She
was Immediately headed for City Island
where she arrived about o'clock.
This is the first accident that has zap
pened to any of the cup defence oandl-
dates. and in this case il is rather un-
fortunate because while the Defiance has
spare masts. gaffs and booms she has not
a spare bowsprit. IL is understood that
one will be made for her at once by Rob
ert Jacob. at City Island.
George NJ. Pynchon, the managing own
er OF the yacht. who. with L. Walter
Clark. Of the syndicate. was on board
Yesterday, said last night; While the ac-
cident is not serious one. il will prevent
us from racing on Tuesday. and, in fact
] have decided not to race at all next
week and take advantage OF the time
by reducing the rating of the yacht as
much as possible

MILITANTS STONE
BUCKINGHAM PALACE
Two Windows of King
Georges London Resi-
dence Smashed.

London, May 9-Buckingham Pal
ace is to be no longer exempt from the
window smashing raids of the suffra-
gettes. IT leaked out last evening that
between 1 and l. o'clock on Wednes-
day night two militants succeeded in
evading the sentries outside the palace.
Entering the quadrangle, they began
throwing stones at the windows, and
had smashed two of them when the
sentries seized them and took them to
the police station within the precincts
of the palace, where they gave their
names TO the police. The Master of
the Royal Household refused to prose-
cute them. and they were released after
a few hours detention.
At meeting Of the Women's Social
and Political Union last night, when
Mrs. Mansell told of what the two
women had succeeded in doing. the
audience burst into cheers lasting sew
eral minutes. The suggestion that the
Queen must be Mortified at the treat
ment meted out to imprisoned suNra-
gettes was received with loud cries Of
dissent.
Mrs. Mansell strongly protested
against the action of the Archbishop of
Canterbury in refusing sanctuary" to
Miss Annie Kenney, adding that the
Archbishop would be allowed no peace
until women obtained the vote.
Miss kenney, who g.. few days ago
went 10 Lambeth Palace, the residence
of the Archbishop of Canterbury, with
the intention Of staying there, but who
was arrested, returned there again last
evening. She stretched herself at full
length on the pavement outside with
two suffragette nurses in attendance,
many people watching the perform
ance. She was credited with hal ing

bur will die here unless they take M

she was denied admission to the PAL
ace. and after she had lain on the side
walk for nearly an hour was removed
in police ambulance to a nearby
police station, and from there to Hol-
loway jail. where she was placed IN the

REFORMS WANTED BY REBELS PLEDGED
Withdrawal of American Forces from Vera Cruz to Fol-
low Installation of Provisional Presdent-Nlagara
Falls Now Waits on Washington and Mexico City.
Bv GEORGE GRISWOLD HILL.

Niagara Falls, Ontario, May D
With the complete plan for the settle
ment of the Mexican difficulties, in
cluding the personnel of the provisional
government. before the governments at
Washington and Mexico City. the medi-
alton at Niagara Falls rests in statu
quo; nor is II believed that advices Of
the approval of both governments can
be received here before tomorrow at
the earliest. In the mean time no
work of importance can be accom-
plished here.
The plan submitted follows precisely
the lines indicated in these dispatches,
including the promised retirement Of
Huerta, the creation Of a provisional
government at Mexico City, the plede-
ing of the new government to take all
practicable steps to settle the land
question and to carry into effect those
reforms for which, ostensibly. at least,
tho ConstitutionsIists have stood, and,
when law and order shall have been
so far restored as to make the step
feasible, the holding Of a constitutional
election at which all citizens Of Mex
leo shall be free to enter the race.
The method whereby this provisional
government Is to be brought into ex-
istence is as follows:
Huerta will designate as perma-
mont Secretary of State the man chos-
en- by the peace conference. Huerta
will then resign, leaving the man so
chosen acting President. He, in turn,
will appoint as members Of his Cabi-

BRIDGE TUNED UP
AFTER REST CURE
Span "Etherized" Before 13-Inch
Pins Are Substituted for
10-Inch.

City officials, engineers and curious
crowd. many of them cut off from their
homes by the sudden cessation of traf-
fic, stood on Williamsburg Bridge early
to-day and watched the driving of the
last four pins in the reconstruction of
the span equipment.
The four ten-inch pieces of metal
which held the giant cables connecting
the bridge to the land were withdrawn
by the machine specially constructed
for the purpose, and thirteen-inch pins
substituted. The work began at fifteen
minutes after midnight. in the pres
ence Of various city officials, and at
the same moment traffic was stopped
The engineers thus anasthetized the
bridge for the operation.
For many days the final arrange
ments for the ceremony had been gone
over by the engineers, and when the
corps appeared on the bridge last night
they were letter perfect in their work.
The early morning crowds were not
barred from the roadways because of
any danger. 1t was simply that the
work demanded the least possible Vi
bration as the pieces of metal which
held the great cables were bored out
and the bigger ones were driven home.
Mayor Mitchell was expected to be
present last night, but was represented
by Theodore Rousseau. his secretary.
Others present were Deputy Bridge
Commissioner l.. b. Durham; Travis
n. Whitney. secretary of the Public
Service Commission: Samuel L. Martin.
secretary to President McAneny of the
Board of Aldermen and Sheriff L. VI.
Swasey, Of Brooklyn.
The engineers, at midnight. estimated
that al { o'clock this morning the driv-
ing Of the big pins, which will render
the bridge capable of withstanding The
extra strain Of traffic required by the
new subway enterprises, would have
been completed. and the rehabilitation
of the Williamsburg Bridge practically
completed.

From The Tribune Bureau.

FROM / nc tribune bureau
Washington, May 2S.-Until the plan
agreed upon by the Niagara Falls medi-
ators for the solution Of the Mexican
problem is formally accepted by the
parties to the mediation and submitted
10 the Constitutionalists and the de-
tails worked out IL is not expected that
anv announcement will be forthcoming
from the administration in Washing
ton.
The task OF inducing the rebels 10 ac
cent the solution proposed by the medi-
ators is under way. 1t was said by
a representative of the Constitutional
lists tonight. however, that the plan
for the resignation Of Huerta and the
establishment Of provisional govern
uent had not been laid before them,
and il was predicted, with some con-
tidence. that the withdrawal OF Huerta
in the manner agreed upon would not
be acceptable.
II was urged that the plan virtually
recognized the provisional Presidency
OF Huerta. which the United States and
the three mediators had refused 10 do.
Any scheme which goes 10 Huerta as
its source. il is contended. cannot be
Justified. az Huerta himself must be
regarded as an interloper.
The hope was expressed to-day. by
administration officials that the final
protocol will be drawn up and signed
before another week has elapsed.

HUERTA MINISTER
ADMITS PEACE PACT
Secretary Ruiz Confirms
Report of Mediation
Agreement.
.fRv cable 70 The Tribune. ]

Mexico City, May 2S.-Sehor EsteVa
Ruiz. acting Secretary of Foreign AZ
fairs. said this evening that a general
peace agreement already had been
reached at Niagara Falls, but the ses-
sions of the conference continued.
The Finance Minister, Senior de La
Lama. received this morning long dis
patches from the Mexican delegates TO
Niagara Falls, on which he proceeded
at once to confer with President
Huerta. Colonel Jose G. Delgado called
at the Foreign Office later and left
from the President for
Sefor Ruiz.
II is understood that the Cabinet
Vacancies are not likely TO be filled at
present.
Beyord the statement that a formal
agreement had not been reached at
Niagara Falls. the only information
available at the Foreign Office was con-
tanned in a cable message of the same
date from Leopoldo Blasquez, Charge
d'Affaires for Mexico al Buenos Ayres,
stating that at the opening of the Con-
gress Of Argentina the Vice President
had read a message in which, after
succinctly relating the history of me-
diation. he had expressed appreciation
for its acceptance by the Mexican and
American governments and had ended
by asserting that it would be great
day for America if, as consequence
of the friendly mediation, peace was
re established between Mexico and the
United States.

Huertas Position Stronger.

Fortunately for the success of the
mediation, conditions in Mexico have
been far more nearly equalized during
the progress of this conference than is
generally realized. Despite the fact
that the United States has made no
effort TO blockade the port of Tampico
and that the Coustitutionalists have
been free 10 import arms and ammu-
milton at that point. none have reached
them. The Huerta government. on the
other hand, has received q large lot OF
these munitions of war at Puerto Mex
leo. These facts have produced a con
dtion much more favorable to Con-
stitutionalist assent TO the mediation
plan than heretofore has existed
There is, however, a possibility that
because Of these conditions Huerta
may have become more confident in his
own powers of endurance and there
fore, less amenable 10 reason than
when he conferred plelary powers
upon the Mexican delegates TO Niagara
Falls. 1t is for this reason that word
OF the approval of the peace plan from
Mexico City is so anxiously awaited.
The Canadian press is filled to-day
with criticism Of the authorities OF
Toronto because of inadequate pro
vision made by them for the reception
and entertainment OF the medlators
and delegates who went there yester-
day TO be received in special audience
by the Governor General and TO attend

Root Pleased at Prospects.
The temper of the gathering was in
dicated by the enthusiasm with which
it received the optimistic speech OF
Senator Root, who spoke in glowing
terms Of the prospects of the party.
Job L. Hedges, who frankly acknowl-
edges that he is a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for Governor,
spoke in favor of a convention to rec
ommend candidates for all the offices,
proposition made by him some weeks
ago. When he referred TO Colonel
Roosevelt. although not by name, there
was some applause. some Kisses, and
one man became so excited as to shout.

vention because somebody might say
something about us" said Hedges.

are dead. What is this spirit of the

Mr.. Hedges, who had made the re-
quest for convention to consider can

case in a speech that took almost an
hour. Arguing that the trainers of the

mind some sort of an unofficial con-
,ention, he said that the law was not
principle. but a method of procedure.
The practice is neither direct nor

pendonce, but not for mental idiocy.
