FARMER, SERIOUSLY INJURED
IN RUNAWAY.
Accident Occurred at Viola Where He
Had Gone for Load of
Lumber.

According to meagre details reaching
Moscow this afternoon, Charles Towne,
a pioneer farmer of Latah county re-
siding four and one-half miles north
east of Moscow suffered severe injuries
in a runaway accident at Viola this
morning and according to reports his
condition is critical.
DR.. Gritman and a nurse were hur-
riedly called to Viola on the case and
while it was expected that the injured
man would be brought to Moscow,
neither the physician or the injured
man had arrived here this afternoon.
1t is reported that Mr.. Towne had
gone to Viola for load of lumber and
that his team, becoming frightened,
ran away, two wheels of the wagon
passing over the neck of Mr.. Towne;
1t is said that he suffered a fractured
collar bone and other injuries and that
within a few moment following the
accident he lapsed into unconscious
ness. 1t was not stated whether the
wagon was loaded.
Mr.. Towne is one of the most prom
inent and well liked pioneers of the

Acts in Good Faith.

THE Mexican government accepted
the mediation of the South American
powers, Argentine, Brazil and Chile,
in a frank and open spirit and the
Mexican delegation has been guided
and will be guided in all it's acts by
perfect good faith.
"It should be unnecessary to say
that President Huerta gave the Mexi-
can delegation special instructions not
to consent to anything which could
hurt the sovereignty of the Mexican
nation and to refuse a hearing to any
thing which might be construed as an
imposition from the outside. For their
own part, the delegates would not
have accepted instructions of a differ
ent nature on these points; but they
beg to state that hitherto they have
had no occasion to refer to them,
thanks to the exquisite tact of the
mediation plenipotentiaries and to the
circumstances of the American dele
gates.

President George H. Luchsinger of the
Humboldt Savings bank, was found in
the basement of his home this morn

had been dead several hours. Ex-
cept that he was suffering with a
nervous depression, nothing in his
manner when last seen indicated that
he contemplated suicide.
Assistant Cashier Curran of the bank
stated today that the institution was
in a very prosperous condition and
that there was no reason why it's af
fairs should have caused the president
any uneasiness. The state bank ex-

Huertas announcement that he is

"Pacified politically" is believed to
mean that the Washington administra-

bear on General Carranza to agree to
an armistice.
Interested to know just what was
meant by ''Pacified," the administration
learned today that he meant the res
toration of peace the termination of
armed revolt, the disappearance of reb-
el forces from the field, but that he
didn't expect the disposal of all disor-
ganized bands as preliminary to his
retirement. General Carranzas final

music concerts that have been given
this year by the university string
quartet at the university auditorium
will be held Sunday afternoon, June
7 at o'clock under the direction of
Mrs. Hughes assisted by Miss Fay Hos
letter at the piano.
The quartet will play an interesting
program of entirely modern compos-
ers and will be rather shorter than
usual. The first number will be
Dvorak's quartet in F major, popular
Iy known as the American quartet
composed as a result of Dvorak's re-
searches of American plantation
negro melodies and Indian melodies

short quartet, but the pronounced cas-
lily comprehended melodies make IN
instant appeal even to the uncultured
ear.
Two movements from Rubenstein's
piano -quintette will also be played on
Sunday afternoon and in this number
he university quartet will be assisted
oy Miss Fay Hostetter, of the univer-
,ity piano department. The concert

BY Mexican ENJOYS.

The following is the text of the state
ment issued by Mexican envoys, pre-
pared two days ago, but not made
public until last night, in which Presi-
dent Huerta has instructed his en-
voys to eliminate him if necessary in
reaching peace for the Mexican re-
pubic:
I'm accordance with instructions
which the Mexican delegation has had
since the beginning of the peace nego-
tiations, it's members declared at the
first full conference, that is to say, in
the presence of the mediating pleni-
potentiaries and of the delegates of
the United States of America, that
President Huerta's personality is not
an obstacle to the reaching of a salts
factory conclusion.
General Huerta is prepared to
withdraw from the government on
condition that at the time of his with
drawal Mexico shall be politically
pacified and the government succeed
ing his shall be such as to count on
the acquiescence of the governed and
on the support of public opinion,
which constitute the real basis for
peace and stability in any country.
1T has been and is President
Huerta'S wish to place on record that
neither mistaken pride nor personal
will prevent his withdrawal
once the above named conditions are
satisfied.

Consider All Questions.

"To treat of the interior pacifica-
ton of Mexico in the course of de-
liberations on difficulties of an in
ternal character cannot be considered
as submitting the sovereignty of
nation to an external influence; said
pacifcation is necessarily bound up
with the international questions This
has been appreciated by the Mexican
delegation and in setting forth the
intentions of it's government in the
matter, and in its endeavors to bring
about the pacifcation, it has been in
spired by the knowledge that without
it no satisfactory conclusion can be
arrived at in the international ques-
