est diplomatic combination in the his
tory of this continent was today try
ing to bring order out of chaos in
Mexico. Practically all Latin-America
was united to force an agreement
which would restore order south of
the Rio Grande, and again Huerta,
the dictator, was the central figure.
On what he does during the, next 48
hours will depend whether the army
of the United States will occupy Mex
leo or whether Badger and his men
will be ordered to bring their war
craft north; Funston to return to Gal
weston and the general mobilization
on the border be called off.
Despite the apparently irreconcil-
able difficulties between the United
States and Mexico, President Wilson
and his secretary of state were hope
full They profess to believe that
Huerta having agreed with the Unit
ed States to accept the good offices

president nor the secretary will say.
While officially there has been no
suggestion from either side regarding
it's position, but only an acceptance of
a proposal to mediate, the chasm be-
tween the two administration is best
shown by a simple statement of the
unofficial conditions know to have
been laid down.
Just how these demands are to be
reconciled and from them a plan
worked out which will be acceptable |
to both sides no one here seemed |
to know today. Even the representa-
tives of Argentine, Brazil and Chile !
admitted their task was herculean.
But they seemed to believe that they |
would be more successful in dealing
with Huerta than the United States |
has been.

Washington, April 27.-It is declar-
ed that President Huerta has tenta-
lively accepted the offer of Argen-
tina, Brazil and Chile to use their
good Offices to bring about settlement
of the difficulty between Mexico and
the u S. This will probably bring
about the cessation of all hostilities
pending mediation proceedings.
u S. acceptance of arbitration of
fer by three southern countries was
coupled with statement that some act
of aggression on part of those in con-
troll of military forces of Mexico
might force government to act
promptly and withdraw this accept
ance.
Replying to offer of the three
southern countries to arbitrate diff
ference between this country and
Mexico, Pres. Wilson said: eff you
find the Mexican people willing, this
country will be glad to, take UP with
you in the frankest and most con-
ciliatory spirit any proposal that may
be authoritatively formulated and
will hope that they may prove feas-
ible."
It does not appear that Huerta has
attached any conditions to his ac-
ceptance of this proposed mediation
nor that he has objected to the offez
of the three countries on the ground

national honor in the proceedings
which have been Initiated Yet there
was grave fear uttered by many
leaders that if the United States
finally submitted the entire settle
ment of the situation to mediators
who are admittedly prejudiced
against the United States this govern
ment might be forced to make con-
cessions which would not receive the
approval Of the people of the country.
The very fact that our national forces
have been in battle and that men
have been killed has added to the bit
ter feeling against Mexico and to the
agitation for a complete settlement
at this time even though it should
require the armed forces of the ma
ton to show that this country cannot
be wantonly insulted.

Attorneys for corporations doing business at Fairbanks are of different opinion, and as a result the courts may be called upon to settle the matter.
 The act of the legislature provides that all corporation license taxes shall become due upon the first day of January of each year. The act was not approved until the latter part of April 1913. and several Fair banks attorneys contend that it could not apply for that year.
 One attorney, representing six different corporations. sent a cheek for S90 and spe officially stated in the accompanying letter to the secretary that it was the 1914 tax. Mir Davidson has written the following re ply
 You are advised that the ruling of this office is to the effect that all corporations filing articles of incorporation during the year 1913 or in previous years are liable for the payment of a license for the year 1913; and in the event that this ruling Is caused to be changed by q decision of the district court or otherwise, all corporations will be credited fer the next unpaid year

SEARCH FOR JACK CONLEY
 IS STILL BEING PROSECUTED

R. ". Tait and J. II. Detsch, who arrived at Flat from Seward Thursday, tell of meet. ing Al Colwe and Billy Sourby, who left here about two weeks ago to search for Jack Conley. They met them at Ander- sons roadhouse, They had been searching for ConIey the day they arrived, but so far had found no trace of him. They sent word back that if he had strayed from the trail they would find the body as on account of the thaning weather all the old tracks were showing up.
 Dave Mueller says that he and Louis Pcime arrived at Andersons roadhouse on their way out to Seward the morning after Conleys disappearance. Mir Peme took supply of provisions and spent the day in searching for the missing man, and the quest was then taken up by Anderson. Mir. Mutchlar gives it as his opinion that Con- ley, having been told of deserted cabin between Happy creek and Anderson's, had wandered of the trail in an effort to To- cate it.

FINDS COCKTAIL FACE"
 AMONG SOCIETY WOMEh

Two new types of faces have been dis covered among American society women by Rev, Zed Copp a Washington minister and sociologist They are those of the bridge whist fend and the cocktail thinker
 Mir Copp says these new types are 9 distinct degeneration from the orthodo2; American beauty.
 The bridge whist fend's face is assum- ing hard lines usually found in the profes- sional gamblers face" he said recently,
 Many pretty young women are losing all their tender. soft beauty by leaning oyer the gambling table until the early hours of morning
 Bridge whist players can no longer smile sweetly, Tightly drawn lips and a deep iurrow over the mouth are characteristic of this type If women would omit actual heavy gambling these defects of expression would be greatly done away with.
 "The cocktail drinkers type of face is more repulsive than that of the gamblers. The former has droopng lower lid blood shot eyes and slovenly, langud expression. Sweet cocktails are the bane of fashionable women I think they can be classed among the habit forming drugs and drinks. At the bottom of these two evils rests wom- ans tendency to go from the home at mosuhere and do the things hitherto left to men, Clubs and women's bar rooms are giving us new type of American woman hood"

GASOLINE BOAT OPERATORS
 ATTEMPT ORGANIZATION

At an informal meeting of gasoline boat operators last night, held in Commissioner Alorachts court room, an attempt was made to form an organization for the pur- pose of preventing rate-cutting during the coming navigation season. The attempt was only partially successful, owing to the refusal of certain shippers to join in the movement. That there will be determined efnr, to keep all boats in line is evidenced by the fact that one operator declared that in the event of certain boats cutting prices he would haul passengers to and from Dikeman free of charge, and board them al.n

TANGO IS A STRENUOUS DANCE

The tango, it Is said, has wrought havoc with the corset business in Paris The ''derniere mode is to have the vast free To be able to danct the tango and have the latest form the body must be held by moth ing" and still kept rigid. The tango de mands suppleness of those who dance it, but the dance itself must become supple if it does not wish to put the corset makers in bankruptcy.
 It is not an uncommon sight now to see dancers arriving at ball carrying little valises. In fact, some trunk makers are turning out special valises made for the purpose, small, daintily covered and just the right size to hide in a corner of the cloak room. In the valise is carried a change of clothing, for tangoing is real ex- ercise, and wiIted collar is generally the result of the first dance on the program After about the fifth dance the dress shirt is dress no longer Perhaps the obHging hostess will soon furnish bath rooms where their guests can refresh themselves before finishing the dance program.
 The tango seems to be a wonderful ex who in society wants exercise?
