ton in Mexico soon will be ~satisfac.
torily solved" came to the c~onstitu-

Carranza's message, dated at Tam
pico, directed Rafael Zubaran, head
Of the agency, to deny any report that
he was ~endeavoring to place difficult
ties in the way Of establishing peace.
Members Of the constitutionalist
agency said they interpreted reference
to unconditional surrender" as a reit.
GRAFTON of Carranza's insistence that
he would not recognize the Carbajal
government as legally established,
They predicted that the question Of
amnesty and guarantees for the fed.
erals would not be a stumbling block
during the forthcoming parleys over
the transfer of government, because,
they said, people in the territory once
controlled by Huerta now placed con.
fidence in Carranza's assurances that
he would attempt no wholesale repris
ais when he entered Mexico City.

The steamer vas not damaged, but
in a panic on board after the crash the
Majestic's passengers rushed to the
deck ratings, fighting and pressing for
points Of vantage as the steamer head

jestic touched the pier hundreds
jumped off the decks. 1t was feared
some were crushed between the steam
ships side and the pier.
A lffe-saver near the scene Of the
collision picked up a woman, supposed
to be the wife Of the barge captain,
floating down the river. She died with

The captain OF the barge, his wie,
their son and a passenger who we're
seen to leap from the barge, were

LOHdOn.-The Austro-Hungarlan gov
eminent declared wal against Seryia
by a manifesto which is one of the
briefagt Of higtory's momentous docu,
mentg.
Germany paved the way for this
declaration by announcing her rejec.
ton Of the British proposal to bring
four powers together In conference for
mediation.
Germany explained her ally could
not be expected to submit her acts to
a European council rs though she were
one Of the Balkan states.
This announcement preceded the
declaration Of val by only two hours
and showed the harmonious working
Of the partnership between the two
nations, which stood firmly together
through the Bosnian crisis Of 1909.
The center OF interest has shifted
sharply to st. Petersburg, which holds
the decision whether a European war,
which probably would shift the bal
anc OF power II not rearrange the en-
tire map Of Europe, Is to break out.
Negotiations are afOot there between
the Russian foreign minister and the
Austrian ambassador which are de-
signed to "localize" the conflict.
The next news expected Is the oc-
cupation Of Belgrade, and that now
may be an accomplished fact. Reports
Of encounters along the frontier have
been permitted to pass the censor, but
military experts here believe moblliza-
ton also has been effected and that a
campaign Is under way.
There IS no enthusiasm In England
for war, yet there Is a general belief
that her obligations to her partners in

WILSON TALKS TO
THE BUSINESS MEN
GOVERNMENT SEEKS TO END EFa
OF SUSPICION, SAYS PREsl-
DENT WILSON.
SUGGESTIONS ARE HEARD
Delegation Presents Argument Against
Several Features Of Clayton Anti.
Trust and Trade Commission
Biiis--Talk Business Status.

Washington.--befending the adm a
istration trust program, President Wi
SOL told a large delegation Of business
men representing large wholesale or
CARNATIONS that he was seeking tt
end ar era of suspicion and recrimi
nation by putting into law what thu
moral Judgment of the community has
said ought to be there He assured
them the government was not run
aing amuck."
The wholesalers laid before the pres
ident a prepared argument against sew
eral features Of the Clayton antitrust
bill and the trade commission bill, but
said they approved of the general pur
poses of the proposed legislation. Mr.
Wilson promised to lay his callers
suggestions before the proper senate
committees.
The president also talked of bust,
ness conditions and the antitrust bills
with Hugh Chalmers, a Detroit manu-
facturer, who agreed with the presi-
dents views and said prosperity would
come as soon as the present uncertain
ty was relieved.
In speaking to the wholesalers the
president said:
I'VE have had 10 or Is years of
ceaseless agitation about business.
During that time we have read stories
In the newspapers and in the maya
zines of the extravagantly wrong
things that were going on and an at
mosphere OF almost universal suspicion
has been created; SO that if a man be-
came a business man in a big way he
had the uncomfortable feeling that his
fellow men probably looked upon him
as not coming by his money in the
right way.
II think I am right in saying that
the present administration has tried to
bring all those questions to a clearing
house and settle up the balance of
Judgment. It may have seemed sudden
to do so many things In one congress;
but wasn't it high time to just have a
clearance and settle these things? /
not maintaining they are settled In
the wisest way they could be settled,
put certainly the men engaged have
.ried to settle them in the interest of
he country, and ! think in the main
hey have succeeded.
Il want to leave the thought with
you that we are not running 'amuck';
are trying to close this era of sus-
oicion and of recrimination by putting
the law what the moral Judgment
the community has said ought to be
here.
