CAUSE OF DISASTER
Commanders Unable to Show
Wrecks Location.

Quebec, June 23.-That neither Cap
tain Kendall of the ill fated Canadian
Pacific liner Empress of Ireland nor
Alfred Tuftenes, first officer of the
Storstad, has indicated on maps the
spot where a government investigator
says the shattered hull of the liner
now lies, was the most important
point of testimony heard by the
Dominion commission investigating
the collision. ..
This developed when Captain Gag.
non of the department of marine and
fisheries was called upon to establish
the position of the hull.
Captain Gagnon first drew his rec
ord of the position of the Empress on
the British admiralty map.
1t was then found that Captain Ken
dali and First Officer Tuftenes had
used United States maps and that there
is discrepancy between the points
they indicated as the resting spot OF
the liner and the point indicated by
Captain Gagnon as her grave.
Captain Gagnon then marked the
spot where the collision occurred on
the map used by Tuftenes.
When he filed his exhibit it was dis
covered by the commission that Cap
tain Kendall had indicated the COLI
sion occurred about a mile and a
quarter to the north of the spot where
the hull lies and that Tuftenes gave
q spot few miles to the southeast.

Mexican Factions Asked to Get TO.
qether and Save Their Country
Further 1Ioodshed.

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 23.-The
United States government has invit.
ed representatives Of General Car
rama and General Huerta to meet at
an informal conference here with the
hope of bringing about the pacifcation
of Mexico.
The Huerta delegates informed the
American delegates through the
mediators that they were willing to
deal with the Constitutionalists in
this way.
The appeal, which is said to have
Influenced both factions, is that the
MeXicans themselves must save their
country from further spoilation and
bloodshed by each making certain
sacrifices, but neither side will be
asked to abandon the principles for
which they have been contending. 1t
will be several days before the Con-
stitutionalist delegates can arrive.
In the meantime the mediators and
Huerta and American delegates will
continue their discussion of other
points in the general peace plan.
The determination seems to be to
leave the question of a provisional
president to the two Mexican factions
to decide.
The advantage of the new plan, it is
said, is that the conferences will be
continued while the situation in
Northern Mexico is developing.
Fernando lglesias Calderon, leader
of the Liberal party in Mexico, is un-
derstood to be the head of the delega
ton appointed by Carranza to attend
the informal conferences here.
The Huerta delegates are understood
to have consulted their government
and obtained permission to deal with
the Constituencies.

Replies to Criticism Of Pact
With Colombia.
HOPES FOR FAVORABLE ACTION
Secretary Of State Issues Statement
Dealing With Proposed Treaty to
Settle Differences Between the Unit
ed States and Colombia Over the
Separation of Panama.

Washington, June 23.-Criticism Of
the proposed treaty to settle differ.
ences between the United States and
Colombia over the separation of Pan
ANA brought formal statement from
Secretary Bryan defending the clause
expressing sincere regret" on the
part of the United States that any
thing should have occurred to mar
the friendly relations between the two
countries.
The expression honest regret" Mr..
Bryan said, was used in the memoran-
dunn drafted during the Taft admin
istraticn on which the present nego-
tiations as we'll as those which had
failed previously were based.
Despite opposition in the senate
Mr.. Bryan was hopeful that the treaty
would be favorably reported and rati-
fed Members of the foreign rela-
tons committee expected that cor
respondence in the archives of the
state department bearing on the
treaty would reach the committee
Wednesday. 1t will be referred to a
subcommittee and made public.
1t is said that this correspondence
will show that at one stage of the
negotiations with Colombia during
the Taft administration the United
States proposed to submit the dispute
to arbitration with the knowledge
that a verdict in favor of Colombia
would mean a judgment for at least
S40,00000O. Secretary Bryan's state
ment follows:
Bryan Quotes Treaty.
ARTICLE 1 of the treaty now before
the senate reads as follows:
"The government of the United
States of America, wishing to put at
rest all controversies and differences
with the republic of Colombia arising
out Of the events from which the pres
ent situation on the 1sthmus of Pana-
ma resulted, expresses, in its own
name and in the name of the people
of the United States, sincere regret
that anything should have occurred to
interrupt or to mar the relations of
cordial friendship that had so long
subsisted between the two nations.
1.-THE government of the republic Of
Colombia, in its own name and in the
name of the Colombian people, accepts
this declaration in the full assurance
that every obstacle to the restoration
of complete harmony between the two
countries will thus disappear
In what Is known as the Dubois
memorandum, made during the Taft
administration, which presented the
basis upon which he was authorized
to negotiate a treaty, the following
language Is used:
1.-THE government and the people Of
the United States honestly regret any
thing should have ever occurred to
mar, in any way, the long and sincere
friendship that existed for nearly a
century between Colombia and the
United States, and the latter country
has, for years, earnestly desired to re-
move the i'll feeling aroused in Colon.
