and his eyes closed. The interurban
car whistled. Then someone thought
of the paroled convict Prison at

spoke to Truax and shook his arm,
but he did not answer The prison

joy of freedom was too great

visited the prison a year ago. His
stopped figure attracted his attention.
He inquired concerning his history

not want to die a convict here-that's

Mr.. Brown investigated. He
learned that Truax had been a soldier
IN the Ninety-first New York. He was

London.-The king and queen held

the king the suffragette dropped on
her knees and shouted:
Your majesty, for Gods sake, do

The woman was attired in court

the incident, signaIIed to the band to

american Schooner from Gal

by Uncle Sam.
WASHINGTON KEEPS SILENT
Government Officers Refuse to Conn
ment On. Incident-Bryan Denies
RumoP That Mediators Had
Made Protest

Washington.-Ipfor reaching
Washington that the American
schooner Sunshine from Galveston
had landed ammunition at Tampico
for the Mexican Constitutionalists
without interference on the part OF
the United States or the Huerta gov
eminent, was received in official quar-
tiers here without comment.
State department and navy depart
ment officials declined to verify the
report, but from other sources it was
learned that the presence of the Sun
shine off Tampico with arms aboard
consigned to the Constituencies
had been known to the Washington
government for several days. In
view of the apprehension regarding
the attitude the United States might
take toward the landing of ammuni-
ton at this Mexican port, the actual
delivery without interference was re-
garded as significant.
With the Cuban steamer Antilla en-
route from New York to Tampico,
carrying arms consigned to Carran-
za's forces, there has been much spec
ulation as to what the United States
ment should attempt a blockade of
the port. Every Indication, however,
was that the United States would
maintain its previously announced
position that Tampico was an open
port.
No Move at Tampicco.
At night there had been no report
to the navy department that the fed
eral gunboats had made any move
toward Tampico, though previous re-
ports from Mexico City had declared
Huerta would attempt to prevent the
delivery of ammunition to his enemy.
The movements of arms pending re-
suits of mediation at Niagara Falls
have been followed by rumors Of dis
approval On the part Of the South
American ENJOYS engaged in the eff
fort to compose the Mexican situa-
ton.
Secretary Bryan has declare,
however, that the state department
had received no protest from the me-
diators, and he also denied reports
that Mr.. Riano, the Spanish ambas-
sador who represents the interests Of
General Huerta in the United States,
had protested against delivery of mu-
nitions of war to the CONSTITUTIONAL
lists
Should Huerta decide to attempt
to stop the delivery of ammunition
aboard the Cuban ship Antilla, inter
national law requires that notice of
such blockade be given all foreign
powers through a proclamation.
In diplomatic circles the belief is
general that a decision on the part
of the United States to prevent
blockade would result in many COM
pIications and menace the success of
mediation.
Carranza Keeps Silent.
No messages relating to mediation
were received at the Constitutional
list headquarters here from General
Carranza. The answer of the Consti-
tut1onalist first chief to the note of
the mediators, it is expected, probab-
ly will not be received before Mon
