CONSIDERABLE correspondence is
- passing between the countries
drawn together in the preliminary
rounds of the Davis cup international
tennis tournament, and the dates for
the first and second rounds are eX-
pected to be liked in the near future.
Canada has suggested Niagara-on-the-
Lake as a possible battle ground for
matches with Australasia but the An
tipodeans have not agreed to the sug-
gestion, and unless Canada can be in
duced to send a team to England-an
unlikely contingency - the match will
be played in New York. No date or
venue has yet been fixed for the
first round tie, the match between En-
gland and Belgium. Should Belgium
express a desire to play on it's own
courts, England may send team to
Brussels in May or June. Under this
the winning country -
England - could meet
France at Wimbledon, Eng, the vic
terious team subsequently proceeding
to America.

Hon. Charles r. Thomas, the original

not the slightest doubt but that he

SO far and we believe that he will con-

Really! Well, although we are "out

seems from Mr.. Thomas expressed

TODAYS WARP NEWS
Official Information Reaches Washing
ton That Huerta Has Agreed to
Submit to Mediation.

Washington, April 2S.-It is now as
serted that no Americans have been
killed nor have any been in danger OF
their lives in Mexico City, and only
one American Is under arrest, for per-
sona1 offense.
Ali fore1gers who may desire to do
so, will be permitted to leave the coun-
try unmolested, and they will be as
sisted as far as practicable and as
speedily as possible.
Admiral Mayo reports from Tampico
that the federals are still active in
their overtures to the constitutional
lists to combine with them in opposing
and driving the United States troops
from Mexican soil. These overtures
are going on in the very midst of the
daily clashes at arms between the OPP
posing factions.
The Spanish Minister had an inter-
view with Secretary Bryan today in
which he stated to our Secretary that
he was authorized to say that Gen.
Huerta would consent to submit to
mediation.

HEARING ON TOLL
REPEAL FINISHED
Canals Committee Prepares
Report for Senate
MAY AMEND THE BILL
Argument ON the Floor of the Senate
Expected to Last for Weeks
Committee in Executive
Session Two Days.

Washington, April 27.-Hearings on
the bill to repeal the free tolls provis-
| ion of the Panama canal act were
closed tonight and the Senate canals
committee tomorrow will begin con-
s1deration in executive session of a
report for the Senate. The commit
tee was said tonight to be evenly di-
v1ded for and against repeal.
Chairman OGorman thought the
executive deliberations might last
two days, but it seemed practically
certain that a majority will favor some
sort of report so that the measure
may be brought before the open Sen
ate this week.
Senator Simmons, who has been
prominent in the fight for repeal, said
the committee might report the bill
with an amendment which would de-
clare in substance that the United
States valves. no rights over the ca
nal.
Others suggested that, owing to the
division in the committee, a report
without any recommendation what
ever could be looked for In any case
the big fight on repeal will be made
on the Senate floor where the debate
is expected to last several weeks.
The hearings of the committee be-
gan April 9th and continued without
interruption until tonight Scores of
witnesses were heard and many argu
ments, economic and legal, were pre-
sented.
Joseph N. Teal, of Portland, Ore,
on behalf of the Portland chamber of
commerce and other Pacific coast
trade organizations, protested against
the repeal. R. FL. Phillips, of Ken
sington, Md, expressed the opinion
that the proper Yankee way for the
Democrats to get out of a bad hole
the Republicans had placed them in
was to exempt all ships passing
through the canal from one coast of
North or South America, to the other
coast.
T. A. Jones, member of the Arizona
State Corporation Commission, said
that the inter-mountain country was
just as much interested in free tolls
as the Pacific coast. President Dod-
son, of the Pensacola chamber of com
merce, favored repeal of tolls exemp-
tion.
