have marked his life.
Reports here today said that Sara

while the government sought the de-

responsible for the tragedy. Scores Of
arrests have been made Of those sus-

The bomb.thrower was a Servian
compositor. named Gabrinovics, who
came to Saraievo from Trebinie The
murderer was Gavrio Princip, also a
Scrvian OF Grahovo, a mere boy OF 10
years Of age who said he was student.
Supporting the authorities belief OF a
widespread plot was the discovery Of q
third bomb, mexplodcd, near where the
tragedy occurred.
II is assumed that third assassin

Rigid questioning of the two Ser

Anchor Liner California Hits

NO PANIC ABOARD

BY The United Press.


LONDONDERRY, ireland, June 29.
Hard and fast on the rocks Of Tory
Island, off the coast Of County Done
gal, the Anchor Liner California still
hung today surrounded by fog while
her 1915 passengers, taken off by
British warships, without loss Of life,
were landed here or are on their
way to Glasgow aboard the Donald
son Liner Cassandra. Three hundred
of the passengers were landed here.
Wireless from the California this
afternoon said the whole forward
part Of the vessel was stove In by
the crash, but it is expected she will
be foated within a few hours. Cap
tain Coverly and his crew were still
on board and several British torpedo
boats which came to the rescue with
the first D S we're still standing
by.
The California left New York June
20 for Moville and Glasgow. If the
vessel is got off the rocks she will
probably be taken to Glasgow for re-
pairs.
The California was carried off her
course by a dense fog early in the
day Her captain did not hear the
fog-horn signal of the Tory Island
Lighthouse, and. his vessel was
smashed on the rocky promontory of
the island. There was absolutely no
panic among the passengers. The
Californias bows were badly stove in
from the grounding, and two for
ward compartments We're flooded.

BY The United Press.

WASHINGTON. June 29.-Despite
the chorus Of official denials that the
Mexican mediators are "being usedn
and hoodwinked by Carranza and his
followers, resentment against the Con-
stitutionalist chieftain is growing in
Latin-American diplomatic circles here.
The declaration by Carranza that as
frst chief of the revolution he "must
consult" the men who elected him be-
fore consenting to unofficial confer
ences with Huerta representatives, has
added to the suspicion there that Car
rama is simply stalling for time. If
the mediators follow the advice Of their
colleagues in this city, it is certain they
will be urged to abandon the entire
enterprise. At no time. ii is pointed
out, has CaITanza shown the slightest
intention Of aiding mediation. The as
surances Of the State Department, and
sources closest to the administration
that all of his hostile declarations are
for "home consumption" are no longer
accepted sr the South American colony
rs convincing.
It is expected that within a day or
Swo the mediators will emphatically
. demand from the United States that
it keep its promises and secure un-
oficial cooperation of the Carran-
zistas. Secretary Bryan has assured
Minister Naon that this participation
will come this week. The assurance
followed definite promises from Judge
Douglas, attorney for the rebels, that
Carranza would accept the plan This
will force showdown. If Bryan for
the administration. cannot make good
then the mediators are expected to
acknowledge failure and wash their
hands of the whole business.
There was absolutely no confirma-
tion here today of report that Car
rama had secretly sent envoys to
Mexico City and they mad already
started conferences there with a view
OF arranging peace terms.
