Voyage Somewhat Unique.

Steamers often load cargoes of
wood pulp at Chicoutimi, at the head
of navigation on the Saguenay river,
that wonderfully picturesque tribu-
tary of the st. Lawrence which flows
out of Lake st. John, and take their
freight straight to Manchester, Eng

deepest river in the world, in the
Canadian wilderness, and ends with
nearly 40 miles of canal, through

RumOr Persists That
Secretary Houston
Will I axe the
Position
President Anxious TO Secure
New England Man

Washington, May President Will
son is searching for a governor of the
federal reserve board. He offered
Richard Olney, former secretary OF
state, the position, but Mr.. Olney de-
clined, being unwilling at his advanced
age to undertake new responsibilities.
Many administration officials were
disposed to believe that Secretary
Houston of the department of agricul-
ture would be the man finally chosen
for the place. 1t is an open secret
that the President has wanted to ap-
point Mr.. Houston to the federal re-
serve board but did not wish to make
any changes in his cabinet, which he
refers to as "a team"
1t is known that since Mr.. Olneys
declination the President has not fixed
on anyone, but is looking over the
field. He is said to be anxious to get
a New England man so that all sec
tons may be represented on the board.
Colonel William A. CASTOR and Joseph
O'Neill, both prominent Boston bank
ers. have been suggested as possibill-
ties, but it is believed the President
will choose a man with legal training.

Washington, May 5.-Developments
in the Mexican situation today were
divided between the diplomatic and
military status.
Secretary Bryan announced tonight
that the three South American media
tors in the Mexican difficulty would
meet at Niagara Falls, Canada, May
is, to receive representatives of the
parties to the controversy.
Mr.. Bryan said:
1.-The mediators have notified the
different parties that Niagara Falls,
Canada, has been selected as the place
where the mediators will confer with
representatives of the different parties
interested in the mediation and that
the 18th of May has been fixed as the
date when the conference will begin"
The language of the declaration at
tracted attention, for although the en-
voys had in a note early said they
would withdraw their invitation for a
Carranza representative unless an
armistice between the Constitutional
lists and the Huerta forces were ar
ranged, no specific parties to the ne
gotiations were named in the state de-
partment announcement.
1t was later learned authoritatively
that the reason for this was due to
the fact that further effort was. be-
ing made to induce General Carranza
to- send a representative.
The, mediators> continued their ses-
sions throughout. the,day and for the
first time it became authoritatively
known omsthemethat they consider
ed the whole ranges of Mexican affairs
as, properly embraced In their work.
Theirs reply tor Carranza has made
thiss clear and. while eliminating him
FROM the mediation for the time be-
ing.s It. still left the. door open to. him
to- come into proceedings later.
