WARR|NG FACTIONS
TO PARLEY ABOUT
MEx|CO'S FUTURE
NaOn's Plan Permits Rebel
and Federal Delegates to
Discuss Crisis While Me-
diatOrs Recess.

NIAGARA FALLS. Ont, June %
Oflclal mediation negotiations have
ended, for the present at least. The
ENJOYS of Argentine, Brazil and Chile
are ready to give way to simple negO-
tlatlOns of surrender by the Huerta
government to the COnstitutiOnalists.
The plan of Minister Naon for set
laid before the mediatOrS and the Am
erican and Mexican delegates under
strict pledge of secrecy, appears to al
low the two factions in Mexico to set
tie their own differences by direct par
leys. These negotiations are to be
held in Niagara Falls, the mediation
conference taking a recess, while the
Federals and COnStitutionalists are so
engaged.
This abdication of the official con-
ference which has been made neces-
sary by the refusal of General Car
rama to declare an armistice and to
consent to the discussion by outsid-
ers of either the provisional govern
ment or any other internal problem of
the republic.
Since the United States has refused
to promise to compel the rebels to lay
down their arms in case of an agree
ment here upon plan of pacification
in Mexico, the mediators have thrown
up their hands and agreed that the
two warning camps must make their
own terms.

STAGE FIRST SCRAP
Manager Changes Scene of
Exhibition to Center of
City and Assures Fans
Fight Is Sure Go.

Eddie Benson, who is promoting the
scum, Saturday night, July 1, today
announced that the principals had
come to terms and that the scrap
would be staged in the Coliseum
Three bouts will be offered, the prn-
cipal one a ten round go between Kid
Clark. the Columbus CO.) pug, and
Jim Oakley, Cincinnati exponent of
the fistic game.
The fight Will be held at the Coli
scum, Mr.. Benson asserting today that
Glen Gaar, member of the board of
control of the Richmond Athletic as
sociation, had rented the place for the
staging of the contest
Asked if fight fans could rest as
sured that the fight actually would
take place, Benson emphatically de
clared it would, unless Mr.. Gaar went
back on his word. He said the stock

Two local boys will figure in the pre-
Inns. Ray Jeffries, one of the fastest
lights that ever dOnned the mitts in
Richmond, will try conclusions with
Battling (Else) Barnes, of Springfield,
and Kid Carpenter. another Quaker
product. will stage a little argument
with frankie Lane, yOungster Of
considerable experience in the ring.
At first it was intended to hold the
bouts at Athletic park, but on account
of the uncertainty of the weather and
poor accommodations for lighting
Benson decided to use the Coliseum
for the bouts.
The Coliseum is centrally located
and according to Benson,an ideal place
to hold prize fight.

Remove Needle
After So Years

ECONOMY, Ind, June 23.-After
shifting about in her flesh for fifty
three years and causing suffering
which baffled physicians, a needle
was removed from above Mrs. Enos
VeaIs knee Recently the needle
worked near the surface, and was
finally removed by using a pair of
tweezers. Various physicians to
whom Mrs. Veal went for relief,
treated her for muscular rheuma-
tism. But not until a small wound
appeared above the knee and the
needle was removed did any one
know the real cause of her suffer
ing. The needle was in perfect con-
dition except for the point which
was broken in the process of re-
mOval.

FIX THE ADMISSIONS
FOR HOWARD BENEFIT
Committee Decides to Issue
Tickets for Any Free Will
Offerings.

Arrangements for the Wesley How
ard benefit concert, June 80, were
completed last night. The plan will
be much the same as last year, except
that no envelopes will be used for the
offerings. Tickets will be issued at
the door to all attendants, and every
ticket must represent a freeWill Of
fering. In other words, every patron
will pay his own price for ticket,
upon which there is no limit, either
large or small. No reservations will
be made. The ticket will entitle the
holder to sit in any part of the Coli
scum.
The program, which will be pub
liShed later, will be made up from
numbers by the Symphony and High
school OrchestraS combined, Wesley
Howard and Miss Mary kaufman, solo
iSt.
Mr.. Howard made wonderful prog
ress in the Boston Conservatory, which
is attested by the free scholarship he
won and letters full of enthusiastic
praise of his ability by his Boston
teachers, said f. NJ. Haas of the pub
liCity committee.
The public will have an opportunity
to note his progress and at the same
time give substantial assistance for
further study by the gifted young man.
"When the Commercial club, the
Symphony orchestra, the High School
and ali our best musicians of the city
take active interest in his develop
ment, it certainly pays tribute OF a
high order to this young genius. The
public will no doubt come forth in
large numbers to the concert next
Tuesday,"

DIFFICULT To OBTAIN
SUCCESSOR TO COBB
Prospective County Agent at
Flat Rock Shifts Derisive-
ly at $4,000 Offer.

Wayne county will not obtain an
arrangements have been made by
County Superintendent Williams and
his trustees to secure a new agent.
The only prospect the board had was
Maurice Douglas, of Flat Rock, Ind,
who scoffed at the 81, 900 offered here
and said he had an income of $4,000
year from other phases of work he
is carrying on.
Mr.. Williams said the board would
not be in a position to make any state
ments regarding what has been done.
He admitted, however, that there is no
prospect OF obtaining a successor to
A. d. Cobb whose contract expires a
week from today, and that the county
will be without an agent for an in
definite period
The salary limit will be $4,000 for
the next agent as it was for Cobb and
practically the same requirements will
be eXacted, such as the use of an
automobile for transporta ton. The
county agents office equipment con-
sists of a desk and bookcase without
books, the remainder being the per-
sonal property Of the agent.
Mr.. Williams intimated that the
board had tried to obtain an agent
but could not at $4,000 year. There
was some talk of taking the $500 the
farmers subscribed to get Cobb and
which Cobb left untouched and adding
it to the $4,000 to increase the salary.
This idea probably will be dropped so
the county superintendent admitted
because the money would last only for
the first year

WatSOn'S bOSSiSm
BEES HIM TO BOOST coMS1oCK
Discredited Boss Sticks TO Lynch Candidacy
at Cambridge City Convention Despite
Appeal Of Wayne COP. Leaders

City lobbying for Lynch. to which Wat
son merely replied that he always at
tended Republican convention. But
| heard you were in Cambridge last
night working for Lynch" Hollern per-
sisted. "Oh, | always try to be on
hand the night before a convention"
answered Watson.
Hollern says he concluded his inter
view with Watson by telling him that
if Lynch was nominated The Palla-
dunn would have excellent reason to
charge that the convention had been
dominated by Watson. Watson had
nothing TO say about this.
Watson's Night Work.
A final refutation of the Watson as
sertion that he no longer plays a part
in he management of the Republican
party is the testimony OF a prominent
Richmond attorney, who for the pres
ent does not desire TO have his name
made public, that the night before the
Cambridge City convention Watson
called him up by long distance tele-
phone and asked him if he did not
intend to attend the meeting held
there that night. The local attorney
said he had made no plans to go to
Cambridge City that night, and asked
the purpose of the meeting. Watson
replied that some OF the district lead
ers had gotten together to talk things
over a little The local man before
concluding the telephone conversation
gave Watson a piece Of his mind in
well-seasoned language and concluded
by saying that he had not been aware
that the district convention was to be
a night meeting rather than a daylight
meeting.
Lynch to Come.
Mr. Lynch is expected in Riohmond
tomorrow for the purpose of making
some effort toward mending his al
most demolished political fences in
Wayne county, but a chilly reception
is in store for him. Party leaders are
frank to say, when not speaking for
publication, that Mr. Lynch can look
for only perfunctory support from
the Republican organization in Wayne
county. He may be asked to resign
as district chairman, which office for
the first time in the history of the
Republican party in the Sixth district
has been used by an incumbent, with
opposition, as stepping stone to the
congressional nomination. 1t was an
nounced a few days ago that Lynch
had been contemplating retaining the
district craftsmanship.
