Negro Boy, Former EmpIoye,
Says 38 CaIibre Weapon
Was Always Kept in House,
Despite Doctors Denial.

NEW YORK, July 11.-Nassau
county officials found important new
evidence in the murder case Of Mrs.
Louise Bailey at Freeport, today when
they learned from a negro boy en-
ployed by DR.. Edwin Carman shortly
before last Christmas that the physi-
clan had a blue steel IS caliber revol-
yer always loaded at his house where
il might be seen at all times By mem
bers Of the family, including Mrs.
Carman, who is charged with the
murder.
The evidence caused the search for
the weapon to be redoubled. A box
OF 3S caliber bullets was found hidden
in the attic Of the Carman home be
fore the physicians wife was arrested
1t was a 3S caliber bullet that killed
Mrs. Bailey.
DIR. Carman has steadily denied
possessing any 38 caliber revolver, de
claring the only weapons he had
we're a % caliber gun. and an old
rusty revolver kept in the garage.
The whole aspect mystery was
changed Friday when it was discOv-
cred that the detectives hired by Dist.
Atty. Lewis Smith had caused the ex-
animation Of Mrs. Florence Carman
before Justice of the Peace Norton TO
be postponed from next Monday until
July 81. IL was because of new
and startling theory advanced by his
detectives that the district attorney
moved that the hearing be postponed.
Counsel for Mrs. Carman made Sc
rious objection TO the postpOnement,
but agreed when assured that the
grand jury would not take up the
case Of the accused woman until aft
er her examination before the justice.

OMINOUS CALM OVER
SITUATION IN ULSTER
Government Drafts 300 Police
Reserves to Cope With
Situation Sunday.

BELFAST. Ireland. July An
omnious calm prevailed today as the
celebration Of the Crangemen began
in this city. For weeks the British
government has viewed with dread
the approach Of July II. the anniVer-
sary of the battle of the Boyne. for
it was universally feared that this
might prove the occasion of the out
break of hOstilities over the home rule
question. Although the actual date
of the anniversary is Sunday, the
preliminary began today and Will con-
tinue until Tuesday.
More than 300 extra police are
drafted in this city alone and Major
General Sir Cecil Macready, who has
been in London comforting with Pre-
mier Asquith, is holding troops un-
der arms in the barracks prepared
for any emergency. But despite tnese
vigorous precautions the authorities
are exercising extreme care TO take no
steps which might lead TO an outbreak
and perhaps wholesale blOOdshed.

BELIEVE REBELS HAVE
NEW PLAN OF ATTACK
Villa May Guard North While
Two Other Leaders Push
on to Capital.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July IL. -
That the constitutiOnalists have some
big plal in preparation which they
will put in operation in the near fu
ture, was the opinion in official circles
here today More interest in the
movements of the rebel forces was
displayed by administration officials
than in any other phase Of Mexican
activity.
The impression prevails that a full
agreement was reached at the Tor
reon conference as to the operations
OF the rebels and that the big feature
OF the plan is for Generals Obeegon
and Jesus Carranza to push on to
Mexico City while Villa viii station
his troops along the northern border
OF Mexico and guard that section.
1t was learned at the state de-
partment that Notwithstanding the
further representations will be made
in an EFFORT to get Carranza TO parti-
cipate in he proposed peace parley
with the Huerta delegates relations
between the cOnstitutionalist leader
and the United States are not so cor
dial as they were. 1t IS understood,
however, that the administration de-
sires 10 gain CarranZa' cooperation,
and with that end in view has prom
ised recognition to whatever provis-
ional government the rebels may set
up after taking Mexico City. II Is
said that Consul Silliman has been
instructed 10 communicate this 10
CaTranZa.
In constitutionahsts' circles here
the belief was expressed that within
the next few weeks the Mexican capi-
tai would be in the hands OF the
rebels and a military government set

" JOHN w. ROBERTS, STAFF
CORRESPONDENT.


TORREON, Mexico. July 1.-THE
long awaited report OF the Carranza-
Villa reconciliation conference was
made public today. Three important
points are emphasized in the report
which treats fully of the labors of the
delegates for the five days they were
in session. These are:
l. Citizen Venustiano Carranza
is recognized as first chief of the
revolution, with full authority over
all military operations.
2. Citizen Gen. Francisco Villa
Is recognized as first chief of the
division of the north, giving full
recognition to citizen CarranZa, as
first chief OF the constitutionalist
army as a whole.
8. Gen. Villa shall be furnished
by Carranza with all supplies neces-
sary for the continuation of military
operations that the former may see
fit TO demand
Villa Is Victorious.
The failure Of Carranza 10 furnish
supplies called for by Villa caused the
break between the two men. This
was the chieff point at issue and Villa
was wholly victorious in the solution
that was reached.
A number Of reforms in the plan
of Guadaloupe, the platform of the
cOnstitutionalists, were proposed by
Villas delegates. One was that the
provisional president Of the republic
call an election upon the triumph of
the revolution. This was evidently
intended TO eliminate CarranZa as
soon as the revolution was ended. but
following the revolution
triumph a convention should be called
at which a program Of government
should be formulated, the time OF
holding the election fixed and nOmi-
nations made.
Villa Is Eliminated
Villa consented to his elimination
as a presidential candidate by agree
ing that no chief of the constitution
alist army should be nominated. The
revolutionary soldiers should be rep
resented in the nominating convention
upon the basis Of one delegate TO each
1000 men, these delegates to be-
named by a junta of military chiefs
and their credentials approved by the
general in command Of the division
from which the delegates are chosen.
Deciding the fractional dispute in
Sonora the delegates held that Car
rama should be given free hand, but
that he should not violate the SOW
reignity OF the state. IL was suggested
that Gov. Maytorna should resign as
an act OF patriotism IL he felt that
his incum bent policies were detri-
mental TO the turmoil in that state.
VIII Punish Clergy.
Gen Villaneal. Senor Bonilla and
Dileva who attended the conference,
asked that their names be withdrawn
but they were allowed to stand
The conference went on record as
opposed 10 negotiations between HUI
erta and Villa.
The conference further pledged
themselves 10 effect the separation of
church and state and TO punish the
clergy who have materially or NOR
ally aided or assisted the usurper
Huerta."

sHANeHAIED IN NAoAsAKl,
 BROUGHT ACROSS PACIFIC
SENT TO SAN QUENTIN
Recognized Portrait of Real cuIprit in Prison Album as One of the Men He Drank With at Nasasaki the Night He Was Spirited Away-Liberation of Victim, Scandinavian. Soon Fol- lowed.

San Francisco. June 1s.-Shangnaied on the waterfront of Nagasaki Japan carried in irons across the Pacific on the United States navy transport Sher- idan and thrust into San Quentin peni- tentiary to serve three years under a name he could not pronounce for a crime he never had heard of, Albert -Johansen, a Scandinavian sailor, was given his liberty today by the United States district court with the cordial concurrence of the United States at torney and the warden of San Quentin.
 On June 27 he must appear again, for the return of a writ of habeas cor pus, application for which was filed to- day in his behalf but in the meantime he is free, without bail, and there is no States authorities that his imprison- ment was the result of & substitution.
 Found Himself at Sea.
 The prisoners story was that he was drinking one night last month in a waterfront saloon at Nagasahi. Three strangers offered to treat him. He &C., cepted. The next morning he found himself at sea, a prisoner on the army transport Sheridan. Nobody under stood him when he tried to tell about himself, and he was delivered at San Quentin as James Rogers, alias Peter Grimes. there to serve three years for a sentence imposed by the treaty court
 
 mate chanced to be fellow country man. and through the latter he got a hearing. Action began to follow yes- terday. two days after the Sheridan ar rived from the Philippines via Japan and Honolulu. Today Johansen was given the album of prisoners portraits and asked if he could find anybody in it whom he remembered. As soon as he came on Rogers portrait he said:
 That's one of the men I drank with in Nagasaki."
 The real Rogers served a year in San Quentin for forgery. When released he won the interest of Capt. Robert Dollar, a merchant of San Francisco, in the China trade. who sent him to China in a clerical position on one of his vessels. Soon Rogers was posing as Captain Dollars son. He began to pass bad checks, was caught and convicted and sentenced to three years in San Quentin. An officer of the court was to have taken him to Nagasaki, where he was to be turned over to the Sheri- dan.
 Believe Sailor Was Drussed.
 At that point the facts end and the ory begins. The belief of federal off, cers is that Rogers got his guardian drunk, slipped a stupefying drug into Johansen's drink, and personally deliv- cred him late at night on board the Sheridan, turning over to a petty off, cer of the ship the papers which he had stolen from the drunken deputy and receiving in person the acknow- ledgment for his own delivery.
 When two days out from Honolulu the Sheridan received a wireless from the United States consul at Shanghai Nagasaki Apparently some doubt had made itself felt in Shanghai

PASSENGER TRAIN WENT
 THROUGH A cULVERT
Feared That Fifteen Have Perished
 Near Inverness, Scotland.

London, June 1s,-Three women were drowned and it is feared that dozen other persons perished today when a passenger train went through cul- vert and into a torrent at Carr Bridge, 2S miles south of Inverness. Scotland.
 thunder storm that ravaged the north of England and Scotland was responsible for the accident. The train from Perth was crossing the cul- vert and became derailed and the cur vert which had become undermined, collapsed and the passenger coaches fell into the water. It is feared that besides the known drowned oozen other persons were caught in a sup merged coach.
 Many passengers escaped from the car but drifted about the stream ana were badly injured before they were rescued. One of the passengers, a man from New York named Cranford, saved himself by gripping tree. The scene of the wreck is a bleak and deso- late spot where it was difficult to op- tain assistance.

STATEMENT MADE BY
 AMERICAN DELEGATIoN.
Repudiates Charge That United States Would Sanction Corruption of Flee torate.

Niagara Falls, Ont. June 1s.-The American delegation to the mediation conference tonight made public a statement, issued with the consent of the Washington government, in reply to the statement given out last night by the Mexican delegation, criticizing the American plan for the establish ment of, a provisional government in Mexico. with . constitutionalist at it's head
 Suggestions that President Wilson had any intent to destroy the electoral liberty of Mexico are utterly repudiat- cd, by the American representatives. The statement covers the whole range of criticisms made by the Huerta dele rates. Coming on the eve of the next full conferences of mediators and del- egates which may be postponed until Saturday, the statement stirred the mediation colony. It was intepret- ed as foreshadowing the unalterable position of the United States in future parleys. The statement says:
 The American representatives do not think it is conducive to the in- terests Of mediation to publish during It's pendency the various plans or the contentious of the parties, but as the Mexican representatives have given out a formal statement of their objec- tions to the appointment of constitu- tionalist as provisional president be- cause, among other things, an election conducted by such a provisional gov ernment would not represent the will Of tho Mexican people. 1t has been thought necessary to give a part of the Rabasa.

BRITISH SHIPPING
 ENDANGERED BY FOG.
Unprecedented Number of Accidents in
 Past Few days.

London, June 1S.-Fog (which has been falling and lifting intermittently over different parts of the British coast during the past two days has accidents to shipping. The North German Lloyd conpany has been the principal sufferer. While the con- pany'S staffs at London and South ampton were busy docking the Kaiser Wilhelm II. which was badly ripped in a collision with the Incemore yester- day, and debarking her passengers. they received a second shock in the news that the company's steamer Buelow, from Yokohama, with more than 300 passengers, had stuck her nose tightly into the rocks of Black nor bay and was held fast there.
 Happily, this accident was also without loss of life. as in the case of the Kaiser Wilhelm, because the sea was perfectly smooth. The Buelow resisted an attempt to pull her off with three tugs. Her inner skin has not been penetrated, but it was considered advisable to transfer the passengers and baggage to tugs. Later the pas sengers were sent to Weymouth and from there by special train to Lon don.
 The American yacht Utowana, be- longing to Addison V. Armour of the New York Yacht club. bound for Southampton after an extensive tour, went aS00r6 al Cndpmdn EOOi, pc- tween Worbarrow and St Albans Heads. Wireless calls summoned tugs to her assistance and it is expected she will be refioated tonight
 The British yacht Cariad also grounded in the fog near St. Albans Head.
 The divers examinations of the Kaiser Wilhelm II and the passengers stories show that good construction. as well as good management and fair weather saved her from g. tragic end. She lies at her Southampton dock with two rents in her side, 24 and IS feet long, below the water line. with two compartments flooded.
 The Incemore, which cut into the Kaiser Wilhelm Wednesday afternoon, has also been docked, with bows bad ly damaged. The collision almost du- plicated that between the Canadian Pacific liner Empress of Ireland and the Storstad, and promises to furnish the courts with a similar controversy to settle.- The Kaiser Wilhelm's boats were sung out and lifebelts were dis tributed to the passengers, SO great was fhe force of the blow.
