CARRAAZA SAYS
HE'LL JOIN FARLEY
Answers Mediators Who Shut
Door on Him.
REFUSES TO HALT WAR
Agreement Reached by Mediators and
ENJOYS on Form of New Provision
al Government of Mexico Pro-
posed in Pacification Plan.

Saltillo, June 13.-General Carranza
announced Thursday that he had re-
turned an answer TO the note of the
mediators, stating that he would ap-
point represe ntatives to the confer
enees at Niagara Falls. His note
merely gave assurance that the con-
stitutiOnalists would be represented.
ut did not mention conditions on which
they would take part. Announcement
was made, however, that agreement
TO attend the conferences would not
serve TO check the campaign against
the federals. The advance to the
south will be continued with vigor
Niagara Falls, Ont, June 13.-At a
conference between the Abe. medi-
ators and both American and Mexican
delegates an agreement was reached
on the form and character Of the new
provisional government of Mexico pro-
posed in the pacification plan.
Under this arrangement the tempo
rary national authority in Mexico City
will consist of a commission of five
members-a provisional president and
four heads of cabinet departments, a
majority Of which shall determine the
action to be taken in all public affairs.
The discussion Of the selection of a
provisional president did not succeed
in overcoming the difficulty produced
by the position Of the United States
that an out-and-out constitutionalist
should be chosen.
There is no longer any expectation
that Carranza will be represented in
the mediation. Failing to get a reply
to their last communication to him,
the emdiators said the representation
incident" was closed. At the same
time, they revealed the correspond
ence on the subject that passed be-
tween themselves and Carranza or his
agents.
Washington, June 13.-In dismissing
the idea of participation in mediation
as result of the days developments,
some of Carranza's agents declared the
campaign against Huerta would be
continued with increased activity.
Arms and ammunition for Carranza
aboard the Cuban steamer Antilla now
at Tampico probably will be unloaded
today. So far as could be learned this
government will take no steps to pre-
vent the unloading.
The apprehension of General Fun
ston over rumors of a possible fed
eraI advance on the American outposts
at Vera Cruz became a matter of grave
concern to war department officials.
The anxiety was increased by know
ledge that strong rebel force was op-
Grating in Vera Cruz state.
FL Paso, Tex, June 13-Orders
were issued by the treasury depart
ment at Washington that customs Of
ficials along the entire Mexican border
exercise extreme vigilance to prevent
the passage Of arms into Mexico.

MILlTANTS TRY TO BLOW
UP WESTMINSTER ABBEY
Blast Plainly Heard in House of Com
mons, Causes Panic Among Wis
itors-Less Publicity Is Urged.

London, June 13.-Militant suffra-,
gists staged one of the most dramatic
acts of their campaign when they ex-
ploded a bomb in Westminster Abbey
Thursday at the very moment that
Reginald McKenna, secretary of state
for home affairs, was delivering an
optimistic speech in the house of COM
mons nearby regarding the govern
ment's method of dealing with "the
wild women"
The bomb was placed beside the ia
nous coronation chair in Edward the
COnfessor's chapel. Although it did
little damage, it's report penetrated to
the chamber of the house, interrupting
Mr.. McKenna's grafton ana bringing
some of the members into the street.
The defamation was heard for many
blocks and a crowd quickly filed the
square in front of the abbey. But the
police Immediately closed all the
doors.
The chair, generally called St. Ed
wards chair, out of respect to Edward
the Confessor, near whose shrine it
stands, was made by order of King
Edward to hold the coronation stone
or Stone of Destiny" on which the
ancient Scottish kings used to sit
when they were crowned.
A hundred or more visitors were be-
ing conducted by vergers about the
abbey when a sudden flash penetrated
every recess. A sharp detonation set
the women to screaming and running
for the doors in panic.
The discussion of the militant cam
paign in the house of commons showed
that the government contemplates no
new measures to control the militant
women, except to inaugurate an at
tempt to make the subscribers to the
funds of the Women's Social and Po-
litical union responsible for damage
the militants infict.
Home Secretary McKenna, who
made long speech in the house, dis
missed the suggestion of the deporta-
ton of the militants as impracticable
and declared that to let them commit
suicide in jail by starvation would
likely arouse sympathy. He appealed
to the newspapers to kill the agitation
by ceasing to give them the advertise
ment which they fed upon.

COMMISSION SETS
HOURS FOR WOMEN
PEA PACKING COMPANIES ADJ
VlSED OF NEW RULES FOR
FEMALE LABOR.
RUSH PERIOD RECOGNIZED
Old Time Records Must be Sent to
Madison for Examination by State
Board-Fewer Violations are
Expected.

Madison.-Well in advance of the
opening Of the pea canning season the
Industrial commission has advised all
Wisconsin pea packing companies of
its new orders for the regulating of
hours of employment for women. The
department now has complete data on
the tremendous Importance of the in
dustry, and also possesses complete
records of experience on employment
OF women and children. The pea can
ming industry means something like
S6,000,000 q year to Wisconsin manu-
facturers. In 1913 the total output of
the eighty factories was 3,0SS,S75 cases
or 100000 cans of peas. This repre-
sents about so per cent of the total
output of the United States.
The chief problem in the pea can
ming industry is the rapid and
prompt handling of the freshly pick
ed peas in order that they may not
have time to deteriorate before be-
ing sealed in the cans. The indus
trial commission, by a special order,
has provided for such contingencies,
but has so limited the operation of
the order that no employer can
stretch point in order to employ
women for excessive hours. During
the rush season and in case OF abb
normal conditions brought about by
breakdowns, bad weather or climatic
changes, women engaged in can
ming may be employed not to exceed
twelve hours each day, exclusive Of
meal times, but these twelve hour
days are limited to fifteen in the sea-
son. Employers must provide for a
period of rest of at least nine con-
secutive hours from the end of work
on aAY one day to the beginning of
work on the next day.
1t is the intention of the commits
sion to have several members of the
field force engaged solely in the in
spection of pea canning factories
These inspectors will have access to
all the time records and their re-
ports will be made direct to the COM
mission. Fines for violations of law
were collected last year from fifteen
canning companies. The commission
expects that the companies this year
will avoid further prosecutions.

Washington, June 13.-Opium Snug
glers are especially active along the

successful means of eluding customs
inspectors in bringing the drug into

most popular with the opium traffick-
