CordOva's Mission Here
TO Aid COnferreeS

Long Branch, n. j., Aug. 10 Domi-
clio da Cana, the Brazilian Ambassa-
dor, whose summer embassy is here,
authorized the statement to-day that
Cordosa, Brazilian Minister to Mexico
City, was leaving there at this time
chiefly to inform the Washington gov
eminent and Pan-American diplomats
on the general situation in Mexico.
The impression given at the embassy
was that the Brazilian Minister was
not fleeing from Carranza, but that his
departure was the result of an ar
rangement, made several weeks ago.
whereby the minister was TO leave II
conditions became unbearable.
The minister several times has re-
ceived authority from his government
to leave Mexico City, but each time
has preferred to continue serving the
United States. This time, it IS said, ne
feared the Carranza occupation Of the
capital might not last long and that
communication might again be inter-
rupted, making it impossible to get to
Vera Cruz.

American Officer Meet
in FL PaSO.

ed in Chihuahua To Be Return
ed to the Pightful Owners.

FL Paso, Tex, Aug. 10. Accompanied
by his corps of gold" bodyguard Of
proven fighters, General villa came to
FL Paso to-day and conferred with
General Scott. Chief of staff of the
United States Army. Villa conceded
everything Scott asked. Later General
Scott announced that his mission to the
border had been accomplished and
that he was awaiting further orders
from Washington.
Tonight in Juarez Villa is making
his plans to return to his army and
take up the conflict with Obregon where
he left off.
Only that part OF the conference re-
latinc 70 ;hc seizure Of American stores
and mines has been given out officially
in FL Paso. but in Juarez it is declared
that much more than seizures was dis
cusscd. and that Villa learned finally
that the United States has exhausted
its patience with Mexican revolution
airy factions. 1t is asserted by Next
cans that Villa is well pleased with the
result of his talk with General Scott,
and that he feels confident that not
only will Carranza and his faction not
be recognized. but that Villa will stand
an excellent chance TO demonstrate the
worthlessness of Carranza's cause for
recognition.
General SCOTS only statement was:
General Villa assured me that the
mining mems meeting had been called
for tonight. but had been indefinitely
postponed. He also assured me that
foreign merchandise in Chihuahua
which was confiscated by his govern
ment last week will be returned to its
rightful owners. Those who violated
the law regulating the price of food
will be prosecuted in the civil courts.
My mission to the border, therefore, ia
accomplished, and | am awaiting fur
Their orders

Juarez. has issued orders that Ameri-
cans and all other foreigners are to be
let severely alone. To-day's conference
was held in the home Of J. f. Williams.
a local banker. It was attended by
George c. Carthers, as special repre-
sentative of the United States govern
ment, and Colonel Alberto Madero, rep
resenting the convention government OF

hostile to the idea of military invasion
by the United States and the estab-
lshment of government which Will
have to be maintained by American
troops. It was stated yesterday that
the South American diplomats who Will
t; part in tO-day's conference are OF
the opinion that an occupation by an
armed force is out OF the question at
the present time.
No threat or intimation Of what will
be the course of the several American
countries is given if the suggestions
made are declined, all considerations
being for the time subordinated TO the
primary purpose-the final appeal TO
the patriotism of all Mexicans to re-
deem the prestige of the nation before
the world.
The complete plan that has been
adopted for the solution of the prob
lem has not yet been published, but
already some mlsconstructions OF the
purposes Of the Latin-American coun-
tries and the United States have been
spread, which the diplomats fear may
prove embarrassing.
First and foremost, the plan con-
templates a supreme appeal to the con-
sciences of the Mexican leaders of all
factions and political groups. 1t has
been prepared and, after minor changes
in phraseology are discussed, probably
will be despatched Immediately, rea-
sonable time-a few weeks being al
lowed for answers to be received.
While the appeal that is TO 90 forth
will not specify the exact course that
is TO be followed, the conferrees have
taken into consideration all the posi-
bilities OF the situation. If any fac
ton or group fails TO attend the peace
conference, those leaders or delegates
who do will be expected to proceed
with the task of setting up govern
ment that can be recognized.
With this recognition an embargo on
arms would De declared by the United
States against all other contending
groups, and such moral support gwen
to the new government as would enable
it, through the rehabilitation of its
finances, to equip force large enough
10 crush armed opposition.
One of the chief features of the
plan. so far as worked out, is that 1t
aims to accomplish peace in Mexico
without armed intervention.
The session here probably Will ad-
journ tomorrow night.

terialS TO the Allies.

Washington, Aug 10. The reply to
the German note of July 80 on the
sinking Of the William P. Frye was
sent to Berlin to- day. Ambassador
Gerard is instructed TO communicate
1t to the Foreign Office 4. once The
United States also sent TO Vienna to-
dav a reply rejecting the Austro- Hun
gar.an views recently set forth in a
note cortending that the great scale
en- which war munitions are being eX>
ported from America to enemies of
the Germanic Allies "is not in con
sonancc with the definition of neu-
trahty."
The German note reiterated the
claim that the sinking of the Frye
by the auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eitel
Friedrich was justified under inter
national law, and that the amount of
damages should be fixed by a German
prize court 1t proposed. however to
leave this matter to a bipartisan
commission of experts, or. if the
United States preferred. to submit the
question of the legality Of the sinking
TO arbitration. The full text IF the
latest American Frye note viii be
made public IN a couple of days.
Answer to Germany.
While the original position Of the
State Department that the Prussian-
American Treaty of 1928 was violated
ty the destruction of the vessel is
rcaftrmed in the reply, it is lnder-
stood that the United States now
agrees to accept payment for the Frye
under the conditions suggested in the
last German note. obviatinC an appeal
20 arbitration at The Hague. Ger
many Stipulates that payment shall
not involve admission of treaty vio-
lation.
The American note is said to stipu-
late that no treaty rights are waived
b. acceptance. The amount to be paid
will be fixed by two commissioners,
one appointed by each government.
A German prize court in July held
the Berlin government liable under
treaty for payment for the Frye. The
amount was not fixed as the United
States had entered no specific claim
for damages.
The reply to the Austro-Hungarian
note was cabled 20 Ambassador Pen
field, who probably will present 1t to
the Vienna Foreign Office Thursday.
United States Stands Pat.
Though entirely friendly in tone,
the reply is understood to repudiate
fatty the suggestion that the United
States has permitted violations of
neutrality and to stand firmly on the
right of American exporters to send
war supplies to belligerents able to
purchase and receive them. The
United States always has held that
this is an unquestioned right under
international law, and high officials

LEGISLATURE MUST
CHANGE CHARTER TO
HELP LOCAL SCHOOL
CITY NOW UNABLE TO ISSUE
BONDS TO ERECT NEW BUILD
INGS-CHARTER IN CONFLICT
WITH STATE LAW.

The school bond issue voted many
months ago amounts to naught in view
of recent decision handed down by
the Florida supreme court holding
that the provision of a city charter
stipulating that the city shall be a
special school district is in conflict
with the state law.
The only way that a special school
district can be created is by a pro-
cedure laid down in the compilation
of the school laws. The school bonds
voted were authorized by the city of
Daytona and not by the school district
comprising the same territory as the
city of Daytona. The city charter Of
Daytona seems to differ from every
other municipal charter in the state,
although similar provision was in
terpreted by the supreme court in a
case arising at Lakeland.
The local school trustees will ask
the next legislature to annul that part
of the city charter referring to the
school system and the county school
board will then be asked to proceed
to establish special tax school dis
trict and call an election for the issu-
ance Of bonds in the special tax dis
trict to be created.
1t is proposed that the bond issue
shall be 100000, to be used in erect
ing additional school buildings. 1t is
hoped that the matter will be in shape
so that the election to vote on the
bonds can be held some time in May.
The new buildings can then be com
