Youth Cursed Cop Who Ordered

Atlantic City, N. j., June H.
Because they told Patrolman Har-
rold to ego to hell" Raymond King
and Louis Ripple, both II, were
sentenced to lone good, old fashion
ed spanking" by Police Judge Kef-
fer yesterday. Their parents were
compelled to file bond for the
faithful performance of the SEN

court to witness the punishment,
which he did with much satisfac-
ton.
The boys had been working un-
der an automobile, stretched fiat on
their backs for two hours, tinkering
a recalcitrant engine. Harold heard
them swearing and ordered softer
words. Then came the fatal words.
"I'll admit you were justified in
doing some cussing at the engine.
I've been in the same fix myself. But
swearing at officers must stop. The

ETHER PLANT IS
DESTROYED BY FIRE
Fire Destroys Buildings Of Mallinck'
rodt Chemical Company, at St.
Louis, with Loss Of 100000.

St. Louis, June 12.-Fire that
started in the ether house Of the
Chemical Works, early
yesterday morning, caused damage
to the plant estimated at 100000.
Combustion of nitrat of soda was
the cause according to officials. The
firemen were greatly handicapped
by nauseous fumes from the burning
chemicals and from the danger of
explosions which had at one time
threatened to destroy the entire
plant, which covers more than an
entire city block, and is valued at
$1,0OO,O00. At 6 o'clock the fire
was under control.
The fire was discovered in what is
known as the "E' building and the
explosion soon spread flames to an
other four-story building used for
the storage of ether in its raw form.
A series of small explosions in this
building hurled the burning debris
through the air and several other
small buildings in the group were
set ablaze and destroyed. The main
buildings were not damaged. No
one was injured.

TO NIAGARA
Rebel Chief Announces He Has
Answered Note to Me-
diators.
THE FIGHTING IS TO GO ON
Agreement to Attend Conference
Won't Stop Campaign
Against Federals.
HE FIGHTING IS TO GO ON

Saltillo, June 12.-General Car
rama announced last night that he
returned an answer to the note OF
the Niagara Falls mediators, stat
| ing that he would appoint represen-
tatives to the conference at Niagara
Falls.
The names of the representatives
were not made public. The note
simply gave assurance that the con-
stitutionalists would be represented
and did not mention candidates on
which they would take part. 1t
was announced, however, that an
agreement to attend the conference
would not serve to check the cam
paign against the federals and the
advance to the south will be contin-
ued with vigor.
Federals attempted yesterday to
escape from Mazatlan through the
constitutionalist forces, but were
driven back with heavy losses. Two
thousand citizens of Mazatlan who
were. destitute and without food,
came to the constitutionalist camp
and were fed by General 1urbe.
General Carranza has sent 100,-
900 pecos to purchase food for these
people.
Washington, D. c., June a.
Constitutionalist representatives here
established Geographic communica-
ton with General Carranza at Sal
tillo late last night, and while the
agency refused to reveal the trend
of the exchanges, it was understood
they outlined a reply to the last note
of the mediators, and Immediately
would be forwarded to Niagara Falls
regardless of the ENJOYS action yes
terday.
In many quarters it was believed
the Carranza representatives would
be sent to Niagara to indicate to the
mediators and the Huerta and
American missions the degree to|
which the constitutionalists would
be willing to discuss proposals for
Mexico's pacification. The ENJOYS
yesterday declared they regarded as
closed the incident of their CORES
pondence with Carranza, but it was
believed that they would be urged
to receive his representatives if they
appeared.

DISTURBS THE PARLIAMENT.

London, June 12.-Militant suf.
fragettes staged one Of the most dra.
matte acts, of their campaign yester-
day when they exploded a bomb in
Westminster abbey at the very mo-
ment that the Rt. Hon. Reginald
McKenna, secretary of state for
home affairs, was delivering an op-
timistic speech in the house of COM
mons near by regarding the govern
ment's method of dealing with "the
wild women"
The bomb was placed beside the
famous coronation chair in Edward
the Confessor's chapel. Although it
did little damage, its report pene-
trated to the chamber of the house,
interrupting Mr.. McKenna's Grafton
and bringing some of the members
into the street to learn what had
happened.
The detonation was heard for
blocks and crowd quickly filled the
square in front of the abbey.
A statement issued by Scotland
Yard gives the facts in most conser-
vative form.
cat S O'clock" says the state
ment, "a small bomb was exploded
in immediate proximity to the cor
onation chair. Fortunately the dam
age done was slight. A portion OF
the carved back of the chair was
blown off and some of the stone
carving Of the screen of the great
altar was damaged apparently by
some iron nuts contained in the
bomb.
"The bomb, thin metal nickel
plated, was exploded by fuse. A
woman's feather boa, a guide book
and small black silk bag were
found on a chair nearby. The police
are making inquiries in conjunction
with his majesty's inspector OF ex-I
plosives."
A hundred or more visitors divid-
ed into small parties were being
conducted about the abbey when al
sudden flash penetrated every rel
cess. A sharp defamation set the
women to screaming and running
for the doors. A great cloud of dust
filled the chapel.
The dean of Westminster, with
the vergers and police, found that
an ornamental spike on the back of
the chair had been blown away and
a splinter of wood six by three
inches ripped of.
Two young women, who were
nearest the chair, were taken to the
police station but proved to be for
eigners and were released. The po-
lice are trying to find a tall woman
dressed in black who was seen
standing close to the chair before
the explosion.

MOUNT LASSfN AGAIN
IN VIOLENT ERUPTION
Great Volumes of Steam and Smoke
Pour Forth From New Open
ing Near Peak.

Redding, CAL, June 13.-The
fourth and greatest eruptions of
steam and smoke from the new open
ing near the peak of Mount Lassen,
at the foot of the Shasta range, oc-
Cured late yesterday. The smoke
column reached an estimated height
of $500 feet.
The first squirt of smoke was seen
at 3:15 p. m. A great column rose
above the snow of the mountain top
and seemed to stand in the sky for
half an hour. 1t gradually subsid-
ed, but was followed by puffs and
jets at intervals as long as the
watchers were able to see the out
line of the mountain against the
sky.
The first outbreak at Lassen &C.
Cured May 80, and broke hole in
the side of the mountain near the
peak. A second somewhat larger
occurred June 1, and a third June
s. None Appropriated the magni-
tude of the one last night, and all
were ascribed to melting snow
reaching certain chemical forma-
lions within the mountain.
Lassen is at the foot of the Cas-
cade range and at the edge of a vast
volcanic area reaching into several
states. Geysers abound. Reports
after shutdown were that no flames
or reflection of flames could be seen
from a distance.

IMPOSSIBLE TO AVOID WAR

Anthems, Greece, June 13.-A
warning to Turkey, which fell little
short of formal declaration of hos
tilities, was uttered yesterday by
Premier Venizelos of Greece in the
chamber of deputies. He was speak.
ing on the treatment of Greek sub.
jects in Turkey.
Public opinion in the Greek cap
ital is greatly excited and demands
are made that the government take
immediate action.
The premiers' attitude show ed
that the tension between Greece and
Turkey was near the breaking point,
and the danger of war imminent.
M. Venizelos obviously found it
difficult to restrain his language
when he spoke of the way in which
the Turks had treated his fellow
countrymen.
II do not wish to allow to escape
me words which cannot be recalled,
but I should fail in my duty if I
did not inform the chamber of dep
uties that the situation has become
grave-even very grave" he said.
IF stop is not put to those pro-
ceedings, the Hellenic government
will be forced not to content itself
with joining in the lamentations of
unhappy refugees
Prolonged cheers greeted the
premier who added that thousands
of Greek refugees had already
reached the home land from Turkey
while thousands more were only
awaiting transportation "to escape
from the prosecutors"
"Such a situation" he concluded,
could not be borne much longer"
The premier characterized the
Turkish persecution of Greeks as be-
ing of a character such as history
had never known until today, their
object being the elimination of pop
ulations which had been living in
those places for several thousand
years.
M. Venizelos said the attention of
Turkey had been repeatedly called
to the dangers likely to arise from
these prosecutions, but the Turkish
governments only reply was to at
tribute the movement to vengeance
for the alleged sufferings of the Mus
sulman population in Macedonia. He
estimated the number of Greeks ref
ugees who already had arrived in
Greece or were awaiting transporta-
ton at about 100000, all Of whom,
he declared, were abandoing their
entire possessions in order to escape

REFUSES TO ADMIT
CARRANzA AGENTS
Rebel Chief Will Send Delegates to
Farley but Declines to Enter Into
Armistice With Huerta.
MAY NOT PROVE NECESSARY
Wilson ENJOYS Looking After Con.
stitutionalist Interests, Anyhow,
for Responsibility is Ours.
MAY NOT PROVE NECESSARY

|
The mediators will not officially ad
nit to the conference here the rep
resentatives General Carranza ha!
announced he will send to Niagara
Falls. The South American diplo
mats said they could not receGe
from their original condition, de-
manding an armistice.
The dispatch from Saltillo yester.
day stating that the Carranza note
made no mention of the conditions
under which he was sending dele
gates, was shown to the mediators.
They declined to make formal COM
ment, but let it be known that their
attitude had undergone no change.
They reiterated that admission of
the constitutionalists is and will
continue to be contingent upon dec
laration of an armistice.
The mediators will have no OBJ
lection if conference could be held
between the Huerta delegates, the
Carranza delegates and the Ameri-
can delegates.
In fact, such a suggestion has
been under consideration for some
time, so that if an agreement could
be reached between these three par
ties at interest, the mediators would
finally admit all to the signing of a
protocol.
1t is considered possible that the
Carranza delegates might be inform
ally received here and their argu-
ment heard as to why an armistice
cannot be declared. But, on this
point, there has been no crystaliza-
ton of the sentiment and the inf1u-
ence of the American delegates to
obtain at least a hearing for the con-
stitutionalists when they come may
be brought to bear on the situation.
The American delegates looked
upon the announcement from Saltil-
10 as distinctly encouraging sign,
indicating that all sides now recog-
nize the value of mediation as a way
Of restoring peace. 1t is not at all
they will try to persuade
the mediators not to close the door
on the constituencies delegates.
On the other hand, the need for
representation, in
the view of one of the mediators, Is
daily diminishing. He said the me-
diators from the outset had taken
the interests of the constitutional
lists fully into consideration. Also
the American delegates have kept in
touch with the wishes of the con-
through the Washing
ton government, Carranza delegates
could give valuable information and
assistance to the United States, upon
whom rests the responsibility for
bringing peace out of the present
chaos.
The American and Mexican dele
gates and the mediating plenipoten-|
tiaries have reached an agreement
with regard to the manner of trans
'erring the government from Huer-
"a to his successor. 1t has been
agreed that Huerta shall not name
l minister of foreign affairs who
would succeed him upon his resigna-
Ion as the Mexican constitution re-
luires. Just how the transfer of
he provisional presidency shall bel
has not been made
