MEXICAN CRISIS
VERY DELICATE
While Recognizinc Dangerous Pos
sibilities, Administration People
Can See Silver Lining.

Washington, June 1S.-Oficials of
the Washington government tonight
characterized the Mexican situation
as extremely delicate.
This comment referred particularly
to the mediation conference, which
will be resumed tomorrow at Mag
ara Falls. 1t also applied to condi-
tions in northern Mexico growing
out of the action of General Villa in
demanding complete military control
in the campaign against General
Huerta.
Hope for the success of mediation.
however, was not abandoned, accord
ing to persons in close touch with
the administration. This hope was
said to be largely based on develop
ments in the constitutionalist ranks.
The view is held here that personal
squabbles among Carranza's follow
ers had been nipped, enhancing the
chance OF an agreement being reach
ed on a provisional president of Mex
leo and Of checking internal Mexican
hostilities. 1t was reported Huerta's
Niagara Falls delegates might yield

States for provisional president even

NO DISCRIMINATION
AGAINST THE JEW
President Wilson Explains Reference
Made i'm Speech-Correspon
dence in the Case.

hChSS SaSe.
Washington, June ia para
graph in President Wilson'S address
at the dedication of the American
University here May 27, which caus-
ed some discussion among Jews
brought an inquiry to Mr.. Wilson
from Herman Bernstein, of Hollis.
N. Y, and drew from the President
disavowal of any intention to dis
criminate against Judaism.
The incident is treated in CORES
pondence made public today by Mr..
Bernstein upon permission from the
White House. 1t follows:
Dear Mr.. President: have read
with deep interest your address at the
dedication of the American Universi-
ty. take the liberty of inquiring
whether you were correctly quoted
in the following lines which were
published in New York newspaper:
That is the reason why scholar
ship has usually been more fruitful
when associated with religion, and
scholarship has never, so far as 1
know, been associated with any reli-
gion except that of Jesus Christ
Il feel quite certain that you know
that true scholarship has ever been
and is now the very essence and foun-
dation of Judaism, the religion that
gave birth to Christianity.
you know of my profound admir-
alton for you as a great President, a
great thinker and a great man. feel
that you would not make a statement
that is unfair.
with deep regard am faithfully
yours.
(signedD HERMAN BERNSTEIN"
The Presidents reply was:
MY Dear Mr.. Bernstein: am
sorry that there should nave been any
unfair implication in what 1 said at
the opening of the American Univer-
sity. You may be sure that there was
nothing OF the kind in my mind, or
very certainly nothing in my thoughts
that would discriminate IN the impor-
tant matter you speak of against
Judaism.
II find that one OF the risks and
penalties of extemporaneous speak
ing is that you do not stop to consider
the whole field, but address yourself
merely to the matter directly in hand.
with sincere respects and appre-
citation, cordially yours,
(Signed)
WOODROW WILSON"

REBELS MUST GET

Success or Failure of Constitution

Harmony.

El Paso, Texas, June 8.-The sue
cess or failure of the Constitutional
ist cause depends on a complete set

General Carranza, political head of
the Mexican revolutionists. and Gem
eral Villa, mis- chief military leader,
In the opinion of prominent members
or both factions here who today anxL
iously awaited developments follow
ing the dispatch last night offa Joint
appeal for harmony to both leaders.
With the belief general here in
Constitutionalist circles that the fed
erals at Zacatecas have been reinforc-
ed recently and that~they are deter
mined to defend the city to the last
the hope OF speedy capture of this
important point is far from bright.
Only immediate action on the part
or the combined available Constitu-
tonalist forces will accomplish this.
In the estimation of revolutionary
leaders. The rumor that the cargo
OF the steamship Antilla, which was
landed for the Constitutionalists at
Tampico a fortnight ago, had fallen
int9the hands OF Villas Heutenants.
has served to Intensity the feeling OF
Yheasiness. Hopes of settlement of
the reported breach are based upon
the concerted appeal of leaders of
both factions to bury all differences
for the advancement of plans to over
throw the Huerta government.

ANOTHER CRASH
IN HANGING FOG
Kaiser Wilhelm III Rammed by Grain
Steamer-BOth Vessels Put
Into Port

Southampton, June LITTLE
North German Lloyd steamer Kaiser
Wilhelm II, which left Southampton
shortly after noon today for New
York with 1000 passengers, is an

miles to the southeast, with a big
hole in her side amldship, caused by
a collision with the Liverpool grain
steamer Incemore from a Black sea
port for Antwerp.
The lncemore, a smaller craft than
the German steamer, is in dock here
with her bows badly smashed.
The collision occurred in the Eng
lish camel in a fog. Just how it
occurred and which vessel was re-
,sponsible could not be ascertained
tonight. Officers of the Kaiser Will
helm III refuse to give out any ip-
formation. Scant details came from
the Incemore. The Incemore. those
on board, said, virtually had stopped
because OF the thick fog when sud
denly the Kaiser Wilhelm Ioomed up
just ahead OF her. Both captains did
their best to avoid a collision, but
the Incemore struck the liner on the
starboard side amidship. The two
steamers stood by each other until
1t was ascertained neither needed i'm
mediate assistance, then both started
slowly for Southampton.
The forepeak of the Incemore
rapidly filed with water, but the
bulkhead confined 1t rnere and she
managed to crawl into port. There
1t was found the damage to the bows
extended for a length of IL feet and
width of 10 feet.

tics of statewide character. AL
though the meeting was devoid of
anything like enthusiasm, the audi

The only incident that gave prom
Use of any real excitement occurred
when Governor Blease, who spoke
first, referred to James l.. Sims. Uni
ted States marshal, and William r.
Gonzales, minister to Cuba, as having
secured their appointments through
Senator Smith. The senator inter
rupted with the remark, Il had no
more to do with the appointment of
Gonzales than did Cole L. Blease."
When the governor declared that
James l.. Sims, another Smith ap-
pointee, admitted he helped to get
out a niger paper" Senator Smith
again interrupted with Sims was
Tillman's appointee."
The governor then read a letter
from Senator Tillman to w. ]. Shell
ton, which said, Senator Smith and
have agreed about the United
States marshal, and Mr.. Sims of
Orangeburg, will be appointed"-the
governor adding, "If it's a lie, Ben

vanced to the front OF the platform,
and standing by the governor. said
he supposed the latter wanted to be
fair, explaining that he and TiIlman
had agreed on the matter and that
each would have a man for district

Chairman Dreher interfered, Sen
ator Smith returning to his seat, and
