WILSON SUPPORTS
DEMANDS OF MAYO

Washington, April 14.-President
Wilson told callers today that a salute
would be fred to the American flag by
Mexican federals at Tampico as an
apology for the recent arrest Of Amer
lean marines. The president spoke
with such confidence hat his hearers
took II to imply that the point would
be insisted on. The president had al
ready approved Rear Admiral Mayo's
demand for the salute as an apology.
Secretary Daniels also has notified
Admiral Mayo that his actor Ia APP
proved. THE salute will be fred"
was his positive announcement today.
He added that he did not consider the
element of time an important one, be-
cause OF the difficulties Of commu-
nication between Washington and
Tampico.
Secretary Bryan was reticent con-
corning tho Tampico incident. He said
he was in close correspondence with
Charge O'Shaughnessy over Huerta's
promised investigation. He declined to
reveal the nature Of any dispatches
between the state department and the
charge and would neither affirm or
deny reports that Gen. Huerta had for
hidden the salute demanded by Admiral
Mayo. In some official circles the sug-
gestion that Huerta would refuse to
permit the salute was received with
surprise. In their opinion the refusal
might compel drastic action on the part
of the United States.

SUSPECT SPENCER
OF BATES MURDER

Joliet, ILL.,. April 1.-THE unsolved
mystery of the murder 10 years ago of
John w. Bates, q taxicab driver, may
be cleared, 1t was asserted today when
Information was offered that h slayer
vas Henry Spencer, the tango" slay-
err, now awaiting the execution Of his
sentence for the murder of Mildred
Rexroat, the dancing teacher, at
Wheaton last fall. &"&
Bates was called the night OF No
venber Is, 1904, to take Mr.. Dove"
a guest at a Chicago hotel, on a long
drive. F&"
Bates was found murdered the next
day. Dove" disappeared.
A. man, generally supposed to nave
been Dove" arrived in Joliet the next
morning after the murder, stayed two
days in seclusion at the boarding house
OF Mrs. Hausser and left suddenly a
few minutes before the arrival Of Chi
cago detectives. A suitcase containing
bloody garments was left in Doves
room and he had inquired at a drug
store for something to take out blood
stains.
Mrs. Hausser. her soninlaw, John
Smith, and the drug clerk, questioned
as to the suspect, today identified por-
traits OF Spencer as likenesses Of
Dove"
Chief of Police Murphy will take the
three to Wheaton tomorrow to see
Spencer.
Spencer, when arrested for the muir
der OF Mrs! Rexroat. made a long, ram
bling confession. In which he claimed
responsibility for more than a score of
murders. That Of Bates was not
among them. Investigation developed
that Spencer was in prison on the
dates of most Of the killings, which he
asserted he had committed. Records of
the state penitentiary at Joliet show
that Spencer was at liberty between
April II, 1903, and June IL, 1906.

King George Unable to Accept
Mother of Pearl Ikon
From Arab Tribe. 4aF*,

London, April IA mother Of pearl

most identical to that presented to the
emperor Of Russia, by the sultan OF
Turkey, as a peace offering on the out
break Of the late war with Italy. is in
London, awaiting a claimant. 1t was
destined for King George, but because
1t is not an official gift Vt cannot be
presented to him. and. since no one else
has a right to accept it, the ikon re-
mains without q master.
The history of the ikon began when
Italy cast covetous eye on Turkeys
Tripolian possessions. The sultan, In
need of friends, determined to turn to
his powerful neighbor on the north
and In true oriental fashion decided to
accompany his overtures with a gift.
He ordered the Kobi, an Arabian tribe
celebrated for its mother of pearl work,
to max IN ikon of the Lords Last
Supper" for presentation to the Rus
sian emperor. 1t was no small order,
Tor the mother of pearl had to be car
r1ed, a 12-day camel journey into the
interior. from the sea shore. " =
while the tribe was at work on the
ikon. one OF its members, who had
served in the British army. paid a visit
to his old home. and when he saw what
was being done insisted that IT would
be the grossest discourtesy to his royal

FOR King George. The only difference
between the two is that the Russian
gift Is surmounted by the imperial arms
of Russia. while the English image
bears the royal arms of Great Britain.
When the Russian gift was finished
the agents of the sultan paid for it and
carried it away. but the Kobi tribes
men did not know how to send the re-
plea to King George. 1t was finally
taken to Sir John Gray Hill, of Liver
pool. who maintains a winter home on
the Mount Of Olives In Jerusalem. Lady
Hill paid the tribesmen for their work
and brought the ikon to London.
The ikon Is made in the form of a
half room. with the front elevation sur
mounted by the royal arms. The fig
ure of the Saviour and his disciples
about the table are done in full relief
In solid mother of pearl. The work is
very complete. even the smallest table
utensils, in mother Of pearl, occupying
their ordinary place on the table. The
workmanship is exquisite and the de-
sign eX~cellently done. 1t Is probable
that II no means can be found for de-
livering the ikon to the king, 1t will find
a resting place in some London
museum.

Washington. April 14.-John Lind,
President Lind's personal representa-

today after an absence Of months.
While he came for a rest, he brought
much information for conferences with
President Wilson and Secretary Bryan.
The first of these took place at a lun-
cheon with Mr.. Bryan.
Mr.. Lind greeted inquirers by asking
IL II were true that Rear Admiral Mayo
had been ordered to revoke his demand
for the firing of a salute to the Ameri-
can colors at Tampico and when he was
informed that President Wilson had in
sisted that the salute be fired he smiled
~approvingly.
The face Of the former Minnesota
governor was bronZed by the tropical
sun and he appeared somewhat fatigued
and thin. He vas uncommunicative

COPPER WORKERS
CALL OFF STRIKE

4, Hancock, Mich. April 1.-THE cop
per mine workers who nave been on
strike since July % last, voted yester-
day to call off the strike, according to
an announcement made today by
Charles e. Hietela, district secretary
OF the Western Federation Of Miners.
The figures will not be given out until
after a meeting of the district board
this afternoon. ..... ~ A.r
1t Is unofficialIy reported that the
majority in favor of calling off the
strike was 1,012. The unofficial vote
from four Of the Ave locals in the dis
trict resulted as follows:
Ahmeek, 600 for returning to work;
II against.
Calumet, Pei for; 382 against.
Hancock, 491 for; Is against.
South Range, 4S5 for; IS against.
Waive Recognition.
RECOGNITION of the union, denied by
the mining companies, Is waived by
the strikers in voting to return to work.
They claim that practically all OF their
other demands have been complied with
since the strike began. These demands
include better working conditions, an
eight hour day n a minimum daily
wage OF So.
From the outset the operators have
declared that they would never recog-
nize the Western Federation of Miners,
AlIlQuku luCy navy SANS
they don't question the right OF their
employees to organize.
Several thousand men have been i'm
ported to fill the strikers places and the
companies will be hard pressed to find
work for the returning strikers.
When the strike began the union
claimed that Approximately $4,000 men
were out. Since that time many or
these have returned to work and others
have moved away from the copper dis
trict. The latest estimate of the num-
her on strike made by Secretary Hietela
placed the figure at about 5000. The
mining companies estimates were much
smaller. The strike has been attended
by considerable strife and there was
some loss of life. The national guard
Was ordered out in the early days OF
the struggle to assist the civil author
tiles in preserving order. There mas
beef no disorder of any consequence
for several months.
Secretary Hietela said the strike
probably would be declared off otf1cial-
iy at the meeting OF the district union
in Hancock this afternoon.
The official referendum vote Will be
renorted by delegates from the five To-
calls. Hietela said the strike mad cost
the union more than 81 ,OOO, 600.
Strikers who cannot get work and
their families will be taken care OF by
the federation 1t was announced. THOSE
who want to go elsewhere will be pro-
vided with funds. The district union
has a small amount OF money on hand
and an additional sum is expected from
the federation headquarters in Denver.
Mining company officials said today
that no strikers would be taken back
until they had renowned their men,
bership in the western federation.
