WASHINGTON, May 5.-Refusal of
General Carranza Internationally to
participate in mediation and the with
drawal of the invitation so to partici-
pate by the mediators will not end
attempted mediation. This was
learned from the A. B. C. ENJOYS
themselves today. 1t will, however,
restrict their endeavors to obtaining
participation from Huerta and his fol-
lowers in plan that can later be sub
mitted to all Mexico, Carranza in
cluded to restore peace and constitu-
tional government. They will now be
forced to take cognizance of the in
itial cause Of the break-the insult to
the United States flag and the refusal
to salute it in apology.
Meanwhile the mediators were today
showing a disposition to blame the
United States for Carranza'S attitude.
1t is insisted in American diplo-
matte circles that if this government
through it's consular representatives,
who are now very intimate with Car
rama, had intimated to him that his
participation was desired the consti-
tutionalist chieftain would have been
compelled to do so. While the media
tors maintain an air of secrecy and
refuse to comment on the situation

reticent It is said that if the present
negotiations eventually prove a COM
plete failure, Carranza, who should at
all times have been held in control by
the United States, will be the person.
age to blame.
Today is a national holiday in MeN-
leo and officials were fearful that
there must be anti-foreign outbreaks.
1t is the anniversary of the bat
tie of Pueblo, when in 1852 the Mex
lean army, under Porfirio Diaz, de-
feated the French advance on Mexico
City. In the past it has been marked
by anti-foreign demonstrations in
Monterey, Mexico City and Guadala-
jara.
Meanwhile Huerta's position in
Mexico City daily becomes more and
more unstable. 1t is knowledge of
this that causes most apprehension in
official quarters, as it is realized the
dictator may at any moment order
an attack upon American forces at
Vera Cruz in last attempt to force
aggressive action by the United States
which would unite the various fac
tions against a foreign foe. So far,
however, General Mas has remained
quiet. Reports from irresponsible
sources widely circulated yesterday
that he had made settlement with
Mexican forces to surrender the Vera
Cruz water works were promptly de-
MED by Secretary of War Garrison.

ACCUSE BECKER'S
BROTHER OF PLOT
Dresner, Witness for Gunmen,
Says Police Lieutenant
Planned Perjury.

NEW YORK, May 5.-Carl Dres-
ner, the man who admitted he per-
jured himself in an eleventh hour
plot to save the four Rosenthal gun
men from death in the electric chair,
today, in a long affidavit, names Po-
lice Lieutenant Johns Becker, brother
of Charles Becker, as the man who
persuaded him to make the false af-
fidavit in behalf of the gunmen.
Dresner declares that he rehearsed
the false story for thirty-five minutes
with Lieutenant Becker before going
to counsel for the condemned men
with his story. In return for the
affidavit Dresner says that John
Becker promised to set him up in
the saloon business and that his
brother Charles, now in the death
house at ng Sing, when freed, would
also reward him. Dresner asserts that
the police lieutenant told him he
would also save five lives by swear
ing falsely.
Lieutenant John Becker was grant
ed a leave of absence from the West
Thirtieth street police station, osten-
sibly for the purpose of attending the
second trial of his brother for the
murder of erman Rosenthal, which
begins tomorrow morning in the
Criminal Branch of the Supreme
Court. He has not been seen since
named by Dresner as the person who
headed the attempt to save the four
gunmen who were put to death in
Sing Sing on April IS.
Dresner said that he had expressed
an opinion during Becker's first trial
that the real murderer of the gambler
was a free man. This remark was
made to Policeman James A. Kelly, of
the Elizabeth street station. Later
Kelly reported the remark to Becker S
friends. He said that a few days
later, while standing at Third avenue
and Fifty-seventh street, he was ap-
preached by man whom the District
Attorney knows, who told him that
John Becker wished to see him about
an important matter.

O'SHAUGHNESSYS
BAGGAGE STOLEN
Mexicans Did Not Even Except
Charge After Fall of
Vera Cruz.

NEW ORLEANS, May 5.-Mexicans
did not even except Nelson O'Shaugh-
messy, former American charge at
Mexico City, in preying upon Ameri-
can property after the fall Of Vera
Cruz. Practically all the baggage OF
Mr.. and Mrs. O'Shaughnessy was
stolen from the special train Huerta
provided for the charge and his party
to transport them to Vera Cruz after
he had been handed his passports.
The former charge arrived today on
the gunboat Yankton and early in
the day he and Mrs. O'Shaughnessy
began a shopping tour to replen' sh
their wardrobes. The party will leave
tonight for Washington.
When shown dispatch from Vera
Cruz saying that he had submitted to
Washington at the Presidents re-
quest a list of names of Mexicans who
might act as a council to take charge
of the government in case of the
downfall of General Huerta, Mr..
O'Shaughnessy said he knew nothing
about it. He refused to discuss the
Mexican situation in any of its
phases.

PLOT IN CAPITAL
FOR OVERTHROW
Of GEN. HUERTA
Mexican Refugees Disclose
Plan-Zapata 0enies Al
lance With Dictator.
BY WILLIAM G. SHEPARD
United Press Correspondent.

VERA CRUZ, May 5.-Of the fugi-
tives arriving in Vera Cruz from
Mexico City Mexicans outnumber all
other nationalities and they insisted
today that Dictator Huerta is soon to
and looting.
A plot is now on foot in the carl
tai. the Mexicans declare, to drive
Huerta from power. Jiminez Castro,
of Jojuitla, who ordered forty-nine
mutineers lined up and shot, is said
! by some of the refugees to be at
tempting to seize the army. frnitat-
| ing the dictator, the Mexicans say the
conspirators hope to beat General
Villa and his rebel hosts of the north
into the capital. They do not intend
to oppose Villa, but want to share
the rebel victory in the looting tnat
is declared to be certain to follow.
Doubt as to the authenticy of re-
ports that Huerta has formed an alli-
ance with Zapata, the bandit rebel
leader of the south, was raised with
the publication in papers here of q
proclamation from Zapata declaring
that he will start an attack on the
capital today. In the proclamat on
Zapata condemns Huerta and General
Banquet, minister of war. to de tn,
and threatens summary punishment
for all who support the dictator.
1t has been learned here that Senor
Ruiz, under-secretary of state, who is
now acting in the place of Jose Por-
tillo y Rojas, resigned, endeavored to
resign Sunday, but Huerta would not
permit him to retire Rojas is said
to be preparing to come to Vera Cruz.
His friends fear he may be arrested
and imprisoned, if he remains in the
capital.
Today is Mexico's Fourth of July"
the anniversary of the Mexican VIC
tory over the French. 1t will not be
celebrated in Vera Cruz, but in the
capital there will be parades and fire.
work. Anti-k.merican demonstrations
are not expected, owing to the change
in sentiment in the capital and also
the realization by Huerta that Mexi-
co will not be united by such means.
Reports reaching here indicate that
the situation at Tampico is extremely
ominous. The rebels are planning a
general attack as soon as all Ameri-
cans are out of the city and heavy
damage is expected.

REBELS PLAN TO
ATTACK CAPITAL
|NAFEW WEEKS
ConsbitutionaIists Claim They
Will Soon Capture Saltillo
and Tampico.
Especial to the Evening star.l

Ell PASO, Tex, May 5.-That the
Constitutionahst forces will be in
possession of Saltillo and Tampico
and prepared for the final attack on
Mexico City within five weeks, was
the prediction made by the Constitu-
tionalist headquarters in Juarez to-
day.
Official dispatches from Monterey
by way of Chihuahua tended to con-
firm in part the report that the Mex
lean Federals have evacuated Salt1llo
in advance of General Francisco
Villas attack. Dispatches sent from
Monterey to Chihuahua Saturday,
said the entire force of Federals at
Saltillo was being loaded on troop
trains for San Luis Potosi, to the
south. If Villa finds Saltillo evacuated
he is expected to move at once
against San Luis Potosi before at
tacking Tampico.
Several train loads of uniforms,
shoes and cavalry equipment held up
here when the embargo against i'm
portation of munitions of war was
removed, were rushed to Villa today.
Customs officials had received advices
from Washington that the embargo
referred only to arms and ammuni-
ton.
To counteract the effect of report
that Federals and rebels are arrang-
ing a truce at Tampico with view
of combining against the American
forces General CarranZa today sent
from Chihuahua an order advising
General Caballero, Constitutionalist
commander at Tampico, not to enter
into a truce under any circumstances.

DEFER AGREEMENT
ON ELIMINATION

Orange Council Passes Prob
lem Up to Commission Soon
to Take Office.

BY a vote of ten to five early this
morning the Orange Common Coun-
Gil passed up the idea of reaching an
agreement with the Lackawanna
railroad on the matter of eliminating
grade crossings. The problem will
now go over for the heads of the
new commission government which
will take charge of the city on May
26.
Lively arguments led by former
Judge Thomas A. Davis in support of
the plan to accept the Lackawanna
terms and by former City Council
William A. Lord and former Council
man John O'Hagan against any ac-
ton shared interest with the presence
of Councilman Edward Cheetham, an
invalid in a roller chair, who visited
the council chamber in the City Hall
for the first time as he has been laid
up with spinal trouble since a year
ago last month.
Mr.. Cheetham, one the wit of the
Council, was in cheerful good humor,
and indicated his happy frame of
mind during the evening. He at

quently predicted defeat for the or
dinance at this time but packed
every possible vantage point to hear
the anticipated orat. on. That Judge
Davis was to be vigorously opposed
in urging upon the Council accept
ance of the agreement at this time,
despite the payment of $4,000 or S24, :
600 property damages by the city in
excess of the S24,500 required for the
Improvement of streets was fore
casted prior to the meeting.
So thoroughly were the counciimen
in favor of dropping the ordinance
that prior to the meeting it was voted
not to take it up, but this idea was
reconsidered, when it was pointed out
that the discussion of the citizens,
who had been invited to the meeting,
would be of value to the new COM
mission.

telling of Huerta's changed attitude
toward the Tampico incident and the
capture of Vera Cruz from the point

in a Mexican kitchen while native
gendarmes shot down United States

British naval forces.
Standing in the window of the
house of Z. L. Beck, president of the
Mexico City Banking Company at
Vera Cruz, Hay saw the first Ameri-
can marine fall under Mexican fire
The man staggered dropped got up
again, and walked off with blood
streaming from his arm and shoulder
He was taken to the hospital ship
in the harbor where he recovered.
With Professor Albert NJ. Tozzer, of
Harvard, Mr. Hay spent five months
making archaeological studies in the
valley or MEXICO.
Found Huerta BoastfuL
my final remembrance of my last
days with Huerta," said Hay, was at
the great fire a day or so before we
left, which threatened the entire city.
The President watched the flames
from his automobile. He happened to
be in boastful mood, as he frequently
is. when there is plenty of brandy in
his system.
''That's a big fire. Mr.. President,
said one of his associates.
mot as big a fire as ! will start
in Vera Cruz if the Americans land,

Later he gave General Mas instruc-
tions to go the limit in defense of the
town.
