PRESIDENT RESUMES
MEETING REPORTERS
Omitted Press Day service)

Omitted Press Day Service)
Washington, June 1.-The president
today resumed the semi-weekly con-
ferences with newspaper men. He in
dicated that the entire effect of the
labor amendment to the Sherman law
is simply to "clean up" doubtful
ground. He said under the amendment
there would be no question regard
ing the rights of unions to organize
and exist, but at the same time they
would be answerable for violations of
the law. He denied that the boycott
would be legalized and explained that
the amendment merely regulates the
issuance of injunctions, preventing the
use of this weapon to crush strikes.
Regarding the business depression,
he said it is general throughout the
world, but less in America than else
where. He insisted that there is no
real depression in America and as
serted that conditions are improving.
He flatly refused to discuss Mexico
and declared that completed federal re-
serve board nominations must await
McAdoo's return.

Identifying the Dead.
Omitted Press Day Service)

Quebec, June Figures estimating
the number of dead in the Empress
of Ireland disaster at 500 were issued
today by officials of the Canadian
Pacific 1t is not expected that this
list Will be increased. Approximately
q hundred bodies. of the 1876 brought
here from Rimouski have been iden-
titled. Friends and relatives of the
victims crowded the morgue all day.
1t is believed majority of the dead
lie in the sunken hull and it is not
believed this ever will be raised. Fu-
neral services for the dead brought
here are being planned, but plans are
yet incomplete.
The pilot who brought the Stor.
stadt up the river is quoted as saying
Captain Anderson of the Storstadt told
him:
Captain Kendall's statement of
what occurred when the Empress sank
was lot Of lies"

diators that they give into the hands
of the constitutionalist provisional
government the work of establishing
a permanent government in Mexico.
Rebels generally have believed that
ultimately Carranza would be willing
to brave Villa, set aside the title of
"first chief of the constitutionalists"
and assume the position Of provisional
president. 1t long has been known
that an understanding has existed be-
tween Villa and Carranza that neither
was to push himself forward as pres
ident, but it now is said that Villa
has been made to see that he lacks
the education and world knowledge to
made him suitable president, while
he especially is fitted to lead the army
of Mexico as it's commander-in-chief.
He also, it is said, has been con-
vinced that Carranza who essential
ly is a diplomat, who has been gov
ernor of a state and who is held in
high esteem by the people generally
of rebel territory, would be much more
likely to be accepted as a provisional
president than would Villa.
The old jealousy between Villa and
Carranza has not been removed, but
friends of the two have succeeded
in keeping down outward evidences
of it and, by inducing Carranza to
keep away from Villa, have prevented
a clash This, it is believed, is the
reason Carranza has remained in Du-
range while Villa has been around
Torreon and Saltillo, and it probably
is the reason Carranza has waited
to move his headquarters to Saltillo
until Villa has left that city.
There will be no provisional vice
president. This has been decided up
on. OF his provisional cabinet, Car
rama already has decided upon Luis
Cebrera for the portfolio of foreign
relations. 1t is announced today that
he has been instructed to proceed i'm
mediately from New York to Saltillo.
By naming Cabrera, Carranza fore
stalls a possible action of the medi-
ators, who, rebels believe, have been
considering him for provisional presi
dent.
Rafael Zubaran Capmany, now rep
resenting the rebels in Washington, al
so will be in the new cabinet. Fer
randi Iglesias Calderon leader of the
Liberal party in Mexico, also has been
decided upon for cabinet position,
but -he portfolio has not been selected.
To safeguard the provision capital
as we'll as to pursue rowing bands OF
federals in the country around Saltil
10 while Villas army is attacking cit
les 20 the south, General Pablo Con
zoles has moved his entire force o.
5000 men from Monterey to Saltillo.
This concentrates the greater porto
of all rebel troops in the Saltillo-
Zacatecas country and makes it pos
sible to move quickly nearly 10000
men toward Mexico City.
