MEXICO CITY, April 30.-The port
Of Manzanilo, on the Pacific coast, was
bOmbarded Wednesday by an Ameri-

NO HOSTILITIES DURING MEDI-

WASHINGTON, April 3O.-Secre-
tary Bryan announced to-day that the

CARRANZA ACCEPTS
THE GOOD OFFICES
Thanks ENJOYS for Efforts to
Bring Peace Between the
Republics.

WASHINGTON, April 30.-It was
asserted here to-day on UNREASONABLE
authority that the South American en-
voys who are seeking to avert a crisis
in Mexico have appealed to European
governments for friendly offices to ia
, cilitate mediation between Mexico
and the United States. The appeal,
it was stated, did not include a re-
quest, as reported abroad, that the
powers use their influence upon Pres
ident Wilson to name conditions
which would insure success of the ne
gotiations
1t also was learned that a proposal
to General CarranZa, as head of the
Constitutionalists, to join the armis-
tice proposed between the United
States and Huerta, has been made by
the mediating ENJOYS.
The proposal was forwarded to
General Carranza following his &C
ceptance of the good Offices of Brazil,
Argentina and Chile, and is part of
the plan of the ENJOYS to secure a
general cessation OF nostilities in all
Mexico pending the mediation negoti-
ations.
Carranza's entry into the first big
attempt of Pan-American diplomacy
was confirmed early to-day by his &C.
ceptance in principle of the tender of
the good Offices of Argentina, Brazil
and Chile. His reply, forwarded from
Chihuahua, thanked the ENJOYS for
their offer lin an attempt to solve in
peaceful and friendly way the diff
ferences between Mexico and the
United States
1t was pointed out that Carranza
made no reference whatever to Next
cos internal strife. Whether that
might have any effect upon the re-
ported proposal of the mediators to
ask for cessation of hostilities be-
tween the Constitutionalists and
Huertas army could not be foreseen.
WASHINGTON, April 30.-Secre-
tary Daniels said that he had not been
officially notified of the Mexico City
report that Manzanillo had been bonn
barded by an American warship or
that marines had been landed at Sa-
lima Cruz. He said he was in con-
slant communication with Rear Ad-
miral Howard, whose last report was
that all was quiet on the Pacific coast.
Still another report is that Federal
officers had thrown the American Con-
sui at Frontera, in the State of Tobias
co, into Jail.

Spring is in the air Spring in the

sonshiny days coaxes violets out of
the ground and children out of the
houses to look for them.
Children follow the law that heat
expands They burst out of coats
and wraps and spread their chubby
arms toward the blue sky, and really
don't quite understand what is the
matter with them, that they should
feel SO happy
The little reddish brown buds on
the fruit trees also are following the
law of expansion Some of them, in
fact, have exploded with fairy deto-
nations mperceptible to dull human
ears, and now are pleasing human
eyes with wealth of white and
green of that seductive spring fresh
ness seen only orce in the whirl of
the seasons
The grizzled grass is being showed
aside by tender but enterprislng little
