son and the subsequent forcing up
ward Of the floor Of the dock. The
cause Of the failure is ascribed TO the
poor bottom on which the foundations
were laid. The ground is said to be
an unstable formation Of coral, lava
and sand.
Prospects are said to be bright for
favorable consideration by congress Of
Secretary Daniels application for per.
mission to enter into an agreement
with the Union Iron Works for big
drydock at Hunters Point on eonsid-
Grafton Of a guarantee of not less than
$4,000 worth Of government business
annually for six years.
Proposition Approved.
ttThis proposition was approved by
both Secretary Meyer and Secretary
Daniels. 1t is now in the hands of the
house naval committee, which is said
TO favor II. The department is strong
ly behind il as a means Of meeting the
present necessity, Irrespective Of what
may be done toward b1ilding the gov
ernment's own drydock in San Fran,

teThe Union Iron Works proposed
this plan to Secretary Meyer fifteen
months ago. 1t was submitted to the
last congress, but failed in the con.

be built. The iron works offered TO
build at Hunter y Point third dock

Washington, April 17.-Facing prob
able indictment and criminal prosecu-
ton for refusal to respond to lawful
questions" OF the interstate commerce
commission In the New Haven in
quiry respecting the operations of the
Billiard company some of the recall
citrant witnesses have indicated their
willingness to testify.
Joseph w. Folk, chief counsel of
the commission, received letter from
Henry Stoddard of New Haven, Conn,
representing two of the witnesses, in
sisting that 1t was unfair" to his
clients for the commission to INVOKE
the criminal statutes against his
clients.
He feels that "in all justice" the
points in issue ought to be threshed
out in a civil proceeding. His clients,
II was pointed out. did not wish to be
placed under the stigma OF an indict-
ment and rather than suffer such hu-
initiation would give their testimony
under protest.

Battle OF San Pedro Blood
lest of Entire War.
FEDERAL ARMY RETREATS
Thirty-five Hundred of Huerta's Fol-

Prisoners In Slx.Day Struggle.
Rebel Casualties Also Heavy.

San Pedro de las Colonias, Coahui.
la, Mex, April IA survey of the
battlefield of the last week shows
that the battle for possession of this
city which engaged practically the full
forces of rebels and federals was the
bloodiest of the revolution
The battle was at its climax Satur.
day. Sunday and Monday and on the
last day the rebel loss in wounded
alone was $50 men, In all 1900 rebels
were wounded so seriously as to re-
quire hospital treatment during the
engagement. The rebel dead may nev.
er be known, owing to the wide area
covered by the battle.
The federal loss was at least $500
In killed wounded, prisoners and dis
rersed.' BY dispersed is meant those
federals who were separated from
their commands and fed individually
or in small detachments to the hills
or into the desert, probably to perish
there for lack of food and water.
Many FederaIs Captured.
Twelve hundred regulars were cap
tured by the Constitutionalists. The
men were mustered into the rebel
ranks, while their officers will be held
as prisoners. A number of so called
volunteers, or red faggers," were
captured and executed. These men
were former followers of Madero, who
are alleged to have joined the Orozco
rebellion which overthrow him.
The last days fighting was begun
with the Herrera and Benavides brig
AIDES attacking from the south, while
General Villa, with two brigades, and
General Contreras charged from the
west. Generals Ortego and Herman.
dez attacked from the east.
Failure Of the rebel column assign.
ed to attack from the north to arrive
on time saved the federals from ami
hiliation.
The assault was met by a withering
artillery fire. The federals were all
but surrounded and fought desperate
ly, their fire tearing great gaps
through the rebel ranks. The feder
ais retreated toward Monterey.

POSSIBLE BASIS FOR APPEAL
Action Taken by Attorneys for Con-
demned Man.

Atlanta, Ca, April 17.-Possible
basis for appeal of the case of Leo
NJ. Frank, under death sentence for
the murder of Mary Phagan, to the
supreme court of the United States,
was laid in a motion for annument of
his sentence, filed in superior court
here
The motion charges that the pre-
siding Judge at Franks trial advised
counsel for the defense that in the
event their client was found guilty
II would be unsafe for him to be in
court when the verdict was an
nounced and that such action was in
violation of the federal Constitution.
The motion was filed by local law
firm hitherto not connected with the
case. Attorneys who have been in
charge of Franks defense said the
action was taken without their knowl-
edge.

Mexican Crisis Ap-
pears Ended.
MAKES ONE CONDITION
Dictator Asks That Wdrships
Answer Salute.

Washington, April 17-Huerta has
promised Charge O'Shaughnessy to
salute the American flag in apology
for the arrest of American bluejackets
at Tampico.
The only condition attached was
that the American ships fire a salute
in acknowledgment. officials close
to the president said this was In
accordance with naval practice of ma
tions and according to precedent.
II was stated authoritatively the
only point remaining to be determined
is the number of guns and that this
will be speedily agreed upon. AT the
state, war and navy departments off,
cials considered the crisis passed.
officials pointed out that on occa.
sions when the American navy had
saluted the flag of other nations as a
result OF difficulties at sea a salute in
response had been fired.
II was we'll understood In diplomatic
circles that Count Won Bernstorff and
Jules ]. Jusserand. the German and
French ambassadors. respectively, had
been active through their foreign Of
fees In bringing about a relief of the
Mexican crisis.
Means No Recognition.
The only question involved In Huer-
ta's condition was whether a salute OF
response would constitute recognition.
but II was pointed out that the Wash
fngton government considers recogni.
ton a matter of intent in each case,
and would not so regard an acknowl-
edgment of Huerta's salute.
The disposition of the administra'
ton is understood to be to increase
the naval forces In Mexican waters
somewhat, even after the salute is
fred, SO that In such an event only
part OF the ships now steaming south
would be turned back.
The news was received at the White
House Just as Secretary Bryan and
Acting Chairman Shively of the sen
ate foreign relations committee went
into conference with President vii
son.
With smiling faces Senator Shiyely
and Secretary Bryan came from the
White House conference.
THE president has some very in
teresting news" said Senator Shively
THE situation is highly encourag
Ing" said Secretary Bryan.
Crisis Soon to Pass.
Then II was made known that dis
patches from Charge O'Shaughnessy
have described his conference with
Huerta as very cordial and salts
factory" and officials said they were
convinced compliance with the Amer
lcan demands for apology would be
forthcoming within the next few
hours and that the crisis would be
rassed.
The text of the dispatches was mo-
made public, nor was any forma
statement made describing them.
No orders were issued to the ship!
already steaming toward Mexico. MOI
was there any change in the plans fol
enforcing President Wilson's demand
Some officials gave 1t as their per
sonal view that after Huerta had com
piled with the demand for apolog.
and saluted the American flag. some
of the ships now under way might b
turned back. but certainly not before
II was pointed out that ell admins
tration ofncials were grati6ed by tn,
news that HuertA was about to yield
but that there was no disposition 4
temporize or to delay further and tina
oil the plans for action would go a
they lie until ell cause for action hal
been removed.
