Of ten months the United States is
about to reply to Japan's last note on

tary Bryan said today:

drop the negotiations for an adjustment
of the issue by some legislation by con-
gress to confirm the rights of Japanese
now in the United States to own and
lease land and new treaty looking to
recognition Of the rights of Japanese

DR.. GLADDEN. cRITlcIzEs.
Leading coneresationalist Surprised
at Ousting Of Rev. Mr.. Short.

Sioux City, June 15.-Dr. Washing
ton GLADDEN., the best known Congrega-
tional minister in the United States. is
very much interested In conditions in
the First Congregational church. In
Sioux City, which have resulted in the
forced resignation Of Rev. Wallace NJ
Short, who Sas been pastor of the
church for four years.
Dr. GLADDEN. was the leading clergy
man in the Congregational denomina-
ton, and was pastor of the First Con
gregational church Of Columbus. O.
for more than thirty years. He hos
held practically every office in the gift
of the denomination, including the
moderator of the national council. He
is a we'll known writer and has lee
tured on all phases Of social and church
problems. His words come with grea,
force.
In letter to Mrs. II. j. Taylor. a
member of the First Congregational
church, of this city. he writes as fol-
lows.
My Dear Mrs. Taylor: I do not won
der that your heart is sore. have re-
ceived this morning a letter from a
member of the church enclosing the
resolutions calling for Mr.. Shorts res
ignation. The hardness and cruelty
of the tone of them is amazing.
1 regret Mr.. Shorts attitude on the
liquor question; l doubt its wisdom
but no one who knows him can doubt
his sincerity and trueheartedness:
and that christian church could
maintain such an attitude toward such
a man is astounding. The spirit OF
these resolutions makes it very nlain
that the church's heart Is not right In
the sight of God.
do not know what Mr.. Short ought
to do, nor what you ought to do. But
I am sure that you will be rightly
guided. Mr.. Shorts letter to me this
morning Is perfectly calm and kind:
1t is clear that his heart Is at peace;
am sure that his way viii be made
plain.
Write me again, won't you and keep
me informed. Yours faithfully, Wash
ington GLADDEN..

half an hour. after being removed to
a hospital.
The elephant attacked three of the
zoo attaches within the week. and Head
Keeper Louis Scherrer had warned the
men to keep. close watch on the beast.
Babe was taken from his quarters
in the elephant house about o'clock.
BY that time more than thousand
men and women with children had
congregatei about the inclosure of the
elephants playground.
Many children danced with glee as
they saw before them a free ride on
the back of this giant beast. Six were
in line for the ride when Raddatz and
William Davis, another keeper, placed
a hoWdah on the back of the animal.
The beast swung to and fro nervously.
With the end OF the long leathern
thong which held the seat In place on
the elephants back Raddatz slapped
the beast on its trunk. Instantly it
whipped the trunk back and wound it
about Raddatz.
The enraged beast tightened it grip
and lifted the stocky German aloft
and then. with a great swing, hurled
him to tho ground. The elephont
placed the knees Of both forelegs upon
the PROSTATE body and repeatedly
thrust its long sharp ivory tusks into
Raddatz's body. The ponderous beast
crushed the bones. In his keepers body
as 80 much glass;
The fearfulnesS Of the tragedy did
not make its way clear to the crowds
until the beast knelt its weight upon
tho body of the keeper. Screams filled
the air. Mothers and fathers, holding
tightly to the little ones. fled panic
stricken from the scene. The cries at
tracted others in the park, who stood
awed at the fleeing parents.
The big beast. after crushing his
master. stood within the arena below
ing with mighty force. This added to
the din. and the many thousands In
the park sought refuge in street cars
and other places.

BUTTE QUIET AFTER RIOT
Governor in City to Conduct lnvestisa.
tion Of Observation-Disclosures Return
to Work-Union Officials Flee Fol-
lowing Breaking Up Of Parade.

Butte, Mont. June 15.-With Cover
investigation of the lawlessness Of the
last two days and all local authorities
making every effort to restore calm in
the ranks of Butte's 5000 miners, the
city was quiet today.
Men were at work in all the mines.
In the Speculator. one of the largest
mines in the city, 80 per cent Of the
day shift was reported at work. In the
Black Rock and the Butte and Super
Tor nearly all the shifts went down this
morning. 1t was at these two proper
ties that the trouble was precipitated
last Friday. No officials Of the Butte
union of the Western Federation of
Miners were present to protest against
the men who failed to show their un-
ion cards.
Officials Of the union have not ap-
peared since they fed when the parade
was broken up on miners union day.
It Is believed no protest will be made
for the present, thus avoiding further
trouble and keeping the mines in op-
GRAFTON until some understanding can
be reached. In the meantime the Sc
ceders from the union, who have been
influenced by Industrial Workers Of the
World leaders are planning to trade
out large vote on Wednesday when
the miners will cast their ballots on
this question::
'Shall we refuse to show Western
Federation cards at all the mines?"
A committee of the seceders called
on the chief of police today. urging him
to trace the miner to whom was en-
trusted $1,000, the contents of the
miners union safe. which was blown
open by the seceders last Saturday
night.
The order closing all saloons is still
in force.

possible. they made shift as best they
might to endure the peril.

Washington, June 15.-Facing the
crucial test Of mediation negotiations at
Niagara Falls, President Wilson ano
Secretary Bryan, on resuming commun-
ication today with the American dele
gates, were to take up the question OF
slectine a provisional president accept
able to all factions in Mexico. While
the United States holds to its demand
that q constitutionalist must be named
to succeed Huerta, yet the Mexican
delegates have argued for neutral
candidate. Cabinet officials here, never
theless, reiterated that negotiations
we're going ahead satisfactorily.
Emissaries Of Huerta who were IN
Washington. were expected to attempt
to see President Wilson. They were
said to be exerting efforts to save
Huerta from humiliation.
Bryan confers With Wilson.
Secretary Bryan conferred at length
With President Wilson over the progress
nf the Mexican mediation today and
Immediately afterward dispatched
long telegram to the American dele
gates at the Niagara conference. which,
It was understood, concerned the
character and personnel of the pro-
posed provisional government and the
attitude Of the Mexican delegates who
object to provisional executive Win
constitutionalist leanings.
Mr.. Bryan would not discuss the
nature Of his conference with the presi-
dent and would only say that the medi-
ation was progressing satisfactorily.
United States Not to Reesde.
The opinion prevailed here that the
United states would not recede In It's
desire to have named as the head of the
temporary government which would
succeed Huerta q man who would be
acceptable to the revolutionary faction.

DARK HORSE is BARRED
Attorney General Rules That conven-
tions Must Nominate Some One Of
Primary Candidates.

tions Must Nominate Some one o.
Primary Candidates.
Muscatine, June 15.-Attorney Cen
eral Cosson has given County Auditor
Schoemaker an opinion to the effect
that county conventions must stick to
the candidates who ran at the primary
when nominating.
| In response to o letter from the local
county officer, Attorney Cosson has
forwarded a copy OF an opinion which
he handed down to County Attorney
Linville. Of Cedar Rapids. who raised
the same question. The attorney gem
eral holds that the county convention
OF any party has the right to place
upon the ticket the name OF any one
voted upon for that office at the pri-
mary election. II Is further held. how
ever, that IL. no case shall the county
convention make a nomination for an
office for which no person was voted
for In the primary election OF such
party. Attorney Cosson holds that II
was undoubtedly the intention of the
legislature to prevent political conven-
tions and party committeeman from
making original nominations. but
that 1t was the intent of the law to
invest within the convention power
to nominate in the event that no can
didate received the required percentum
Of the vote.
Altho the attorney general does not
rule as to state conventions II may be
assumed that what Is law for county
conventions would be law for the state
conventions and the various candi
dates for state auditor need not fear a
dark horse running away with their
prize.
AS a result OF this ruling vacancies
will remain on the party tickets In
Muscatine county. The progressives
who failed to vote on a county ticket
will be unable to present candidate
for auditor. as no candidate was voted
upon. although in the other offices
names were written in and hence they
may be nominated Vacancies oc-
Cured on the democratic ticket for the
nomination for coroner and on the re-
publican ticket for supervisor but can
didates were voted for and hence these
vacancies may be filled by the con-
vention.

Niagara Falls. Ont, June 16.-Altno
this has been q day OF absolute rest
for the mediators and delegates, the
others who are here attending the con-
ference have had busy time search
Ing the towns on both sides OF the
river for the Carranza delegates.
II has been persistently reported all
day that two representatives OF the
Mextcan chief were here, hut careful
search OF all the hotels, both on the
Canadian and American sides failed to
reveal their presence.
Meanwhile the mediators have not
changed their attitude regarding the
official participation Of the rebel CHIEF
IN the conferences. II the delegates
arrive, however, they probably will be
admitted to informal conversations"
with the three South American d1plo.
mats.
Verify Report Of Disagreement.
Further confirmation was obtained
sunday of the report printed Saturday
regarding the disagreement which had
arisen between the American and
Mexican delegates on the subject Of
candidates for the provisional presi-
dency OF Mexico. Persons who are
close TO tho three Huerta representa-
tiyes declared last night that tne
United states government will have to
swing its support to other men II these
negotiations are TO be successful.
The Mexican delegates themselves
are said to be sorely disappointed and
greatly disguised over the attitude OF
the Wilson administration In the mat
ter. It was pointed out that they Keen
Nv resent the manner in which they
were made to promise the resignation
Of General Huerta In the hope that tho
United States would assume a neutral
attitude in the settlement Of tho affairs
Of Mexico.
Cabrera and caIdsron Mentioned.
Persons who are close to the dele
gates said yesterday that tho names
Of Luis Cabrera and Iglesias Calderon
both have been mentioned prominently
by the Americana.
It Is not believed, however. that the
intention was to give to either Of these
two men the provisional presidency,
but 1t is known that the plan Of the
Washington government is to have not
only the provisional president but the
members Of his cabinet selected at
this conference.
