stubborn attitude of Huertas foes and the withdrawal of the whole hearted support which the United States has been giving constitutionalists would not cause surprise
 The statement was in part as fol- lows:
 There is no reason for further concealment of the differences which have arisen between the American and Mexican delegations to which the press has already referred, over the provisional government for Mexico which is at present under considera- tion. The Mexican delegation adopt ing the principle advanced by the mediation plenipotentiaries, agreed that the designation for provisional president, was to be neutral. The American delegation submitted it's plan based on the condition that the provisional president shall be a constitutionalist, a provision which the Mexican delegation flatly refuses, i on it's own accord, without even con- sulting it's government, to put in writing the reasons for the rejection so that they may be better studied by the American delegates The Mexican delegation addressed
 to them the memorandum mentioned
 the chief considerations of which are
 the following:
 l In country unused to electoral 1 functions, such as Mexico, and par i ticularly in the circumstances anC conditions it would be in, once the revolution had ceased, a provisional l government composed of revolution
 aries and which revolutionaries are i in authority throughout the country
 would turn the elections as it wished | the public vote would be falsified and
 the result would necessarily be the i election of another revolutionary Consequently when the Washington i government insists today on the de. signation of constitutionalist as provisional president it favors also
 the imposing of a revolutionary l president at the elections' Such an attitude is bad for botf
 countries and for the chief of the
 revolution"

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

BUTTE, June 1.-The balloting by the secessionists of Butte local, of the Western Federation of Miners, on the question of showing union cards be- fore entering the copper mines con- tinued tonight. The committee in charge of the referendum announced that thirty eight hundred ballots had been cast up to six o'clock and the committeeman expressed the opinion that the vote was overwhelmingly in favor of abolishing the system of showing cards to business agents.
 M. Nj. Donaghue. president of the state Federation of Labor, approached John C. Lowney of the Western Fed eration executive committee with the proposal that the officers of the state federation act as mediatOrS. LoWney refused to listen, saying that the Vest ern Federation holds contracts with the miners and that organization has nohting to mediate with men who vote as referendums were not called by of ficers of the union.

The North German Lloyd Steamer Kaiser Wilhelm Has Hole Stove Amid ships When Struck by a
 Grain Freighter
IN
 THE CHANNEL
Force of Impact Crumples the Bow of the Grain Steamer and Tears Big Gap in Passenger Nes- sells Side
ASSOCIATED PRESS prspArcH]


 SOUTHAMPTON, England, Juno 1.-The North German Lloyd steam CT Kaiser Wilhelm II, which left Southampton shortly after noon, bound for New York with 1000 pass engers, lies at anchor tonight off Net ley, three miles to the southeast, with a big hole in her side amidships, caused by collision with the Liver pool grain steamer Incemore, bound from a Black Sea port for Antwerp.
 The Incemore a much smaller craft than the German steamer, is in dock here with her bows badly smashed. The collision occurred in the English channel about thirteen miles south of the Nab lightship in a dense fog.
 The force of the impact crumpled up her own bows and tore big gap in the Kaiser Wilhelm's side. It was the belief of those aboard the Ince- more that the hole was entirely above the water line. The two steamers stood by each other until it was ascertained that neither needed inn mediate assistance; then they both started slowly for Southampton.
 Just how the collision occurred or on which vessel lies the responsibility has not been ascertained at present. Officers of the Kaiser Wilhelm II have permitted no communication to be held with any one aboard and they themselves refuse to give out any information. Such scant details as have been obtained came from the Incemore That vessel, it is stated by those on board had virtually come to a stop because of the danger of con- tinuing under way in such dense fog. when suddenly there l0omed up just ahead of her the huge bulk of the Wilhelm. Both captains did their best to avert the collision, but the short distance separating the vessels rendered their efforts intellectual and the Incemore struck the liner on her starboard side amidships.
 The forepeak of the lncemore ra- pidly filled with water, but the stout bulkhead confined it to that part and although so much down by the bows that the propeller was half out of the water she managed to crawl into port There it was found that the damage to the bows extended for length of twelve feet and a width of ten feet.
 The passenger list of the Kaiser Wilhelm II included Bishop Herman J. Alerding of Fort Wayne. Ind; Dr. William H. Jennings, J. M. Acker- man, MT. and Mir. c. E. Bancroft, James D. Brown, A. G. Flames, Geo. Phret, Jr, Raymond D. Fosdick, J. S. Goodall. Jay C. Hills, Frederic C. Johnson, William A. Kauffmann, MT. and Mrs H. J. O'Brien, H. P. Rams dell. MT. and Mrs. Phillip ..

WOODS RENEWS HIS ATTACK 0N
 ORDINANCE SIX
Presents Anew His Resolu- tion for Repeal of New City License Tax Meas ure, But It Fails to Carry

Commissioner Woods made it very apparent at the meeting of the city commission last evening that he is firmly convinced that city license tax ordinance No. 6, should be repealed. He did not play a lone hand upon this occasion as he did one week ago when he failed to secure a second to his mo- tion that the commission authorize an ordinance repeating Ordinance No. 6, for Commissioner Corpstein came to his rescue with an argument and a vote. The motion, however, failed to carry, Commissioners Cope and Foley and Mayor Young voting against It. The resolution providing for the pay ment of city employees upon semi monthly basis, which when originally introduced did not include those oc cupying offices created by the new charter, but which upon motion of Commissioner Woods was amended to include all persons drawing salary from the city, was also carried by a vote of four to one, Mayor Young cast ing the dissenting ballot.
 w neT tllc Sellll-lllOullllN pay IOii resolution was introduced, Mayor Young manifested his approval of the measure, but when the Woods amend ment had carried. he put the motion to vote and himself cast ballot in the negative. In explaining his reasons for opposing the resolution, Mayor Young said:
 q shall vote mo" upon this -eso- lution for the following reasons which I desire to be made part oi the records of this meeting:
 This resolution, to my mind, is . direct violation of the intent of oul charter.
 '1t is un-American in that it is one of those apparently proper meth ods, but in fact, is one of those in sidious forces which today are sap. ping the life out of our democratic form of government.

STEAMSHIP OFFICERS
 CONTRADICT EACH OTHER
Question of Speed of Empress of Ire land and Storstad Is Vital Point


 QUEBEC, June 1.-The testimony tigating the collision between the En- press of Ireland and the Storstad in the St. Lawrence river May 29 which resulted in the loss of more than one thousand lives, brought out statements that the officers on the bridge of the Empress failed to see the colored run ming lights of the collier even when only sixty feet away and that the of ficers of both vessels failed to hear the whistled signals blown just before the crash Officers of the Empress con- tradicted those of the Storstad with regard to the speer of each ship.
 The first officer of the Storstad, AL fred Tuftenes, sWore the Empress was making at least ten miles an hour when the Storstad hit her, while his vessel had a headWay of but one mile an hour. Captain Anderson of the Storstad stated the fact that the col Hers nose penetrated the hull Of the Empress but twelve feet proved the Storstad was not speeding Loaded as his vessel was, the captain said, he would have cut all the way through the Empress had she been making ten knots or more.
 On the other hand Edward Jones and John Murphy, first officer and quartermaster. respectively of the En- press corroborated the story of Capt. Kendall to the effect that the Elm press was at a standstill when the collier ran into her.

 LONDON. June 17.-Col. Theodore Roosevelt is suffering from affec ton of the larynx as a direct result of hardships endured during his re- cent Brazilian trip, which will effec tually prevent him from taking part as orator in the political campaign in the United States this fall and will compel him to exercise the greatest care for months to come.
 This is my answe.' to those who wanted me to go into the campaign" said Roosevelt, after visiting Sir St. Clair Thomson, professor of Laryn- gology of Kings college hospital. Exertion in addressing the Royal Geographical society last night brought about a continuation of the weakness which friends observed on lis arrival in London.

ANNUAL PICNIC TODAY
 AT RIVERSIDE
First Mid-Week Half-Holi- day of Summer Season to See Counter Jump CTS Have Big Time at River side Park

All aboard for the clerks picnic. Today is the big day and it will be writ in great red letters on the face of Phoenix. It comes but once year the first half holiday of the summer season; but the memory of it fingers ali through the weeks that lie be- tween it and the next one.
 Today the picnic will be at River side Park and that new place of amusement has made it possible for the Clerks to pull off some stunts that have been quite outside their possibilities before this. The great pool at the park will be the scene of some amazing doings and neither Ocean Park nor Venice will have anything on Phoenix this afternoon.
 Under the big shade trees along "Canoebrook Way" the lunch tables will be set and the feed that has been provided will appeal directly to every man, woman and child in the party. To the man up tree it looks very much as if it were next to suicidal to provide any such ban quet for -be-record breakers in the sports that are to follow Any man, or woman, who can put away a meal such as will be provided and then go out and win 8 race is de- serving something more than an or dinary laurel wreath.
