Bp STAY Correspondent Of TIE SUN.
NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. June 2O.--The
outlook for mediation is again COM
pletely changed. Minister Naon OF Ar.
gentina, who conferred yesterday with
President Wilson in Washington,
brought back with him n plan regard
Ing the success of which he is most
optimistic. The Mexican delegates are
entirely willing to discuss any pro-
posal laid before them, regardless of
the length of time which the discussion
may take. Ambassador Da CANA of
Brazil and Minister Suarez of Chile
will raise no objections to staying here
any length OF time. with the prospect
of an agreement in sight, and with these
facts in mind it can be safely stated
tonight that the mediation conferences
will be continued until u solution Of
the Mexican problem has been found
With the exception OF DR.. Naon and
the other South American ENJOYS no
one here has any information whatso-
ever regarding the new scheme by
which 1t is expected to put an end
to the present deadlock in the mediation
proceedings. Not even Justice Lamar
and Frederick w. Lehman, the Ameri-
can delegates, have been informed of
what It is planned to submit to the
Mexican delegates. They will receive
no information on this point before
Monday morning, when the first full
conference for almost a week will bs
held.
DIR. Naon himself insists that he has
| no plan to submit. but merely a series
Of suggestions. 1t Is understood, how
ever, that he will propose to those at
tending the conference a way out of the
present difficulties which 1t Is believed
will be acceptable to all factions. It is
known that the Wilson Administration
has not receded from its demand for q
Constitutionalist provisional President,
but there are good reasons TO believe
that this matter will be laid aside until
the question of the participation OF
representatives Of the rebels in tho
mediation conference has been definitely
settled.
In view of the recent developments
in northern Mexico and the serious diff
ferences which have arisen between
Carranza and Villa every one here will
be willing to mark time until the matter
Of supremacy in the Constitutionalist
camp has been settled.
Following DR.. Naon's return "a
marked feeling Of optimism was in EVIL
dence on all sides here to-day. The
announcement that n new plan vii, be
submitted has revived hope among the
most pessimistlc, and even the Mexican
delegates are beginning to believe tina.
the Wilson Administration really seeks
, to avert war.
1t was generally agreed here to-day
that the publicity given the notes ex.
changed between the Mexican and
American delegates this week was
greatly to be regretted. and It IL safe

TAKE BIG STEP AGAINST THE
ALLEGED DOPE TRUST
The State Board of Pharmacy
went after big game yesterday in
their war on the dope habit. Off
Gals of the board seized the records
of Truax, Greene & Co., physicians
wholesale supply house, III N. Wa
bash av., and carried them to the Of
flee of Chief Gleason.
Asst Corporation Counsel Geo. L.
Reker was called into conference,
and he will draw up court sum-
monses for the heads Of the company.
Reker later said the war on the dope
traffic would reach three other big
firms.
The raid on Truax, Greene & Co.
came after disclosures made to the
police by John Burns, confessed CO.
caine agent, who was arrested by De-
tective Sergeants Jerry Sullivan and
VIM. O'Brien as he was leaving the
company's store.
He is said to have confessed that
dope traffic agents had been buying
dope at the store on their own sigma
lures. There is much profit in sell
ing to dope fiends, he said.
This will be the first real move to
break up an alleged dope trust that
is said to spread over the entire Mid
die West.

FRANKIE MAHER IS
VICTOR OVER HOOK
New York Fighter Has Little
Difficulty OutpOinting Bay
Onne Lad.

frankie Maher, of New York, had
little difficulty in administering de-
feat to Young Hook, of Bayonne, at
the Central Institute last night. The
bout went the limit of four rounds,
but Maher had the advantage from
the start. Maher fought hard in the
fourth session, and got over q left
hand punch to the jaw, which sent
the Bayonne fighter to the mat for
the count of nine. Hook arose only
to hold on until the final gong.
Young Salzmann, of this city, dis
posed of Kid Adams, of Elizabeth, in
the second round with right smash
to the stomach. Salzmann did the
leading, and his terrific swings
proved too much for the Elizabeth
lad Jimmy Turner beat Frank Henry
in an interesting four-round ex-
hibition. Turner led all the way until
the final round, when Henry came
back strong. Turner used a left jab
consistently, and, judging from his
work last night, he appears to be q
promising youngster. In the other
bouts frankie Huber and Jimmy De-
laney met, Young Dutch boxed
Danny Rich, while George Brown
beat Battling Cornell in two rounds.
Young Sabol made things too hot for
Kid Pell in the first round, and the
event was stopped, while Young Ben
nett put up a good bout with Kid
O'Leary.

Mr. and Mrs. Gowdy arrived In Bos-

Amos Strunk Is Ont of
Remaining Title Games

Amos Strunk, centre fielder for the
Philadelphia Club, will be out of the
game for the rest of the series. When
the Philadelphia players returned
from Fenway Park they found
Strunk with one hand heavily ban
daged, on account Of an abscess
which had been forming for several
days His loss will be felt particu-
larly by the Athletics because he Was
the only one of the American
Leaguers hitting anyway near true
form.
The Philadelphia players said they
were still hopeful that they would
even up the series. 1t seemed to be
the general opinion among them that
the Braves were playing at the very
top of their game, while the Athletics
were far below their usual playing
ability. Baker, in particular, pointed
out his slump in batting He de-
clared he could not understand why
he should strike out twice in sue

LOCAL RING RIVALS
IN DECIDING CLASH
Banty Lewis Favored to Defeat
BOOntOn at Olympic Park
Tonight.
ANGERT TO MEET BELL

Fight fans are expecting a real
treat when Banty Lewis and Kid
Boonton, of Orange, meet in a ten
round bout at the newly established
Olympic Park Club tonight. The
boys have met twice in the ring,
once at four rounds, when Boonton
was victorious. and again in ten
round affair, when Lewis was the
winner. Now each lad is anxious to
annex the rubber and has prepared
accordingly.
Lewis will enter the affair slight
favorite because of his wonderful
feat in disposing of Jimmy MeVeigh
in less than two rounds. Local fans
realize that this feat was a most
noteworthy one and proof positive
that Lewis was possessed of a punch.
Heretofore 1t was always said that
Lewis was a clever lad but was
lacking of "sleep producer The
fact that Lewis had knocked out the
hard hitting lightweight, Joe Carter,
of New York, was considered a
chance blow. Now his friends are
sure that he is "there." Boonton has
prepared faithfully for this bout, as
he realizes that, should he win, he
will have little difficulty in getting
on matches with other boys before
Manhattan clubs.
The rivalry between the boys is in
tense. This has been brought about
by the actions of the friends of each
lad. The boys are members of rival
athletic organizations, and their fol-
lowers will be on hand to cheer their
respective favorites to the last.
Babe Angert and Young Bell. pop

the semi-final. The lads have been
anxious for long time to get
together, and lively bout is looked
for. -Four preliminar1es are. also on

IN WORLD SERIES,
PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

Hank Gowdy, the latest hero in the
worlds series, is making history as
a. hard hitter. In nine times at bat he
has made home run, triple, three
doubles and a single, which gives him
an average of .667 for the three games.
He also walked three times. During
the National League season Gowdy
only hit at a .247 clip. His home is
In Columbus, o., and he was let out
by the Giants, a few seasons ago. The
New York scouts picked him up in
the Texas League. Gowdy did not
hit at a 300 pace during the league
season, but he got many long hits in
the pinches.
Governor Tener had this to say
about the series: 81 am a loyal Penn
sylvanian, but | am for the National
League, first, last and all the time.
