TRUST BILLS TO PASS.
Congress VIII Not Adjourn Until They
Are Acted Upon.

Washington, July 1.-Definite and
final notice to business interests and
the country generally that congress
will not adjourn without action on the
administration trust legislation pro-
gram was the primary object of a
caucus of senate Democrats called
for today. with President Wilson's ap-
prevail. A party agreement to pass
the trade commission bill, the amend
ed omnibus trust bill and railroad Sc
curities bill was discussed at the
White House today, in conference
with administration leaders who re-
turned to the capitol with the word
that the plan carried the backing Of
the president.
1t was hoped by outlining definite
program, congressman would stop alb
senting themselves from sessions and
that there would be less difficulty in
getting a quorum, and in transacting
business. Once congress knows that q
definite program Is to be enacted be-
fore adjournment, the president be-
lfeves the work will be quickly fin
ished. 1t was said at the White House
today that the president would send
no message to the caucus and that he
had nothing to do, directly. with the
calling of the meeting.

Three new LAWS.
Iowa Passes Under Important Changes
Made by Last Legislature

Des Moines, July Three laws
passed by the thirty-fifth general. as
sembIy, became effective in Iowa today.
They were the workmen's compensation
and employers liability measure. the
state insurance commissioner act, and
the teachers institute law.
The workmen's compensation act pro-
tects every worker in the state with the
exception of farm hands and persons
employed in purely clerical capacity.
In the future persons when injured. will
draw half salary when laid up as re-
suit of the injury. or II the firm is not
protected by industrial insurance the
employee may file suit foys damages and
the firm will be deprived of the usual
defenses.
Emory H. English. newly APPOINTED
insurance commissioner, today took
charge of the state insurance depart
ment. John L. Bleakly, auditor OF state,
turned over the office force. all records
and all securities to the new officer.
The teachers institute law relieves the
teachers Of the state of attending In
stitutes during the summer. If insti-
tutes are to be held they must be con-
Quoted during the school year and the
teachers will draw their regular pay
while in attendance.

wilson IS HOPEFUL.


Washington. July latter . conference
with Secretary Bryan. President Wilson
authorized the statement today. that the
Mexican situation was n favorable ~
1t may be until the Mexican factions get
together. Further. the president refused
to discuss the Mexican situation.
While no statement was made at the
White House regarding the recess OF the
mediation conference, officials close to the
president said he was very hopeful that
Huerta, Caranza and Villa would agree
on definite plan for settling the inter-
nal affairs of Mexico.
The president still is hopeful that med
lation will bring about peace and he be-
ueves that 1t already has accomplished
much good. He takes the view, it was
said. that mediation has greatly increased
the good feeling between the United States
and all atin-American countries and has
shown that the United States never had
any intention of attacking Mexico with
the idea OF territorial ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
Carranzas agents here, after q confer
ence. made efforts to get in communica-
ton with him at his provisional capital in
Monterey. They said they had no report
on the progress OF the plan to submit the
proposal OF meeting with the Huerta del
egates to his generals under the plan of
Guadalupe. Secretary Bryan would not
discuss the Niagara conference today. So
far as was known no instructions as to
leaving have been sent to the American
delegates.

WANTS TO HANG ON.
United States Opposes Disruption Of
Mediation Conference.

Niagara Falls, July PLANS for
the indefinite recess of mediation were
somewhat disturbed today by the sug-
gestion of the q. S. government that
such a break might be Interpreted
generally as a disruption Of the pro-
ceedings. The Washington administra-
ton believes the departure of the
mediators and delegates might fall to
influence the constitutionalists to hur-
ry their delegates to the proposed in
formal conferences with the Huerta
commission. Justice Lamar conveyed
the views Of the Washington govern
ment to Ambassador De Cana and
Minister Naon today after which both
diplomats cancelled their reservations
for tonight and said they would not
depart until tomorrow.
The mediators explained the recess
did not signify an adjournment. but
they thought they could be of more
service in Washington and elsewhere
in forwarding the peace pr gram. No
objections were offered by re Amert-
can government to the recess but
merely an expression of preference:
the United States to press the point.
however, in view of the plans Of the
mediators to keep in touch with one
another and to continue their efforts
to bring the constitutionalists and
Huerta delegates into the conference.
Justice Lamar, the mediators talked
with Emil Rabasa, head of the Huerta
delegation. 1t was understood that he
too was unwilling that mediation
should recess without some definite
understanding as to the future.
The Huerta delegates consider their
work on the international controversy
Is finished and it is believed would like
to have other delegates appointed by
Gen. Huerta to take care of the in
ternal questions. They have private
interests in Mexico which have long
been neglected and think that while
the constitutionalists are consulting
their chiefs and preparing to send del
egates other Huerta ENJOYS could be
on their way from Mexico City. The
American delegates are preparing TO
