MEETS CRANE
AND PERKINS
Callers Silent on Confer
ence-Rooseve1t to Go to
Oyster Bay To-day.

Colonel Theodore Roosevelts ailment
was diagnosed last night as pleurisy.
His condition was not serious enough
to prevent his dining with his family
and Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson O'Shaugh-
messy at the Hotel Langdon, and it is
not expected to prevent his returning
to Oyster Bay this afternoon.
Neither did the Colonel's illness pre-
vent him tom receiving several per-
sons OF political prominence, among
them ex-senator w. Murray Crane, of
Massachusetts,, the ,"old guard" COM
mander In chief, nor from twice con-
ferring with George W. Perkins, who
also had several conferences with
Governor Charles S. Whitman.
Expect Coloners Endorsement.
Perkins frankly declared that his
talks with Governor Whitman were
purely political, but would not tell
what was discussed or what progress
was made. Neither would Governor
Whitman. But from sources close to
Whitman it was learned that immedi-
ately following Mr. Hughes's formal
notification that he had been nominated
and his acceptance, Colonel Roosevelt
would declare for him.
SO far as IL goes, this Whitman opin-
ion is correct. 1t does not, however,
cover the case completely, according TO
some OF the Colonel's closest friends,
who said last night that while there
had never been any doubt that he
would indorse Mr.. Hughes, the warmth
of that Endorsement would be in direct
ratio TO the strength OF the declaration
Mr.. Hughes might make of his position
of preparedness and the hyphenates.
On this and other political subjects
Colonel Roswell was silent yesterday.
The neares. thing approaching state
ment on politics from him was hard
and fast declaration that he would have
nothing to say until after the Progress
sive National Committee met in Chi
cago next Monday, to take action on
his letter to the convention which nom
mated him.
He did. however, say as he left the
hotel in the morning that he wished
the newspapers would treat him as a
private citizen, especially requesting
that groups of reporters be not as
signed to duty at his hotel. Old friends
among the writing fraternity he would
be glad to see as friends, and on
purelv socirl basis, but not otherwise.
Not Easy to Knock Me Out"
Being out Of politics, Mr.. Roosevelt
maintained that there should be no pub
lie interest in what he might do.
Reports that Colonel Roosevelt was
seriously III began to circulate early
yesterday, Immediately following the
visit of DR.. Hubert V. Guile, to the
Langdon.
Soon after calling, DR.. Guile and
Colonel Roosevelt came downstairs and
went tc the Office of DR.. Arthur b.
Duel. two blocks district. The Colonel
appeared to be in pain and the rumor
at once arose that he vas going to
hospital. This was disposed or when
he returned to the MOTEL on foot.
"How are you, Colonel" asked Matt
Cunningham, a big policeman on post
near the hotel. ,,.
Not too bad" he answered. ~

, Troops Held in Camp.
General Bell, commanding at
Fort Bliss, issued orders at p. m.
to the commanders Of the various
troop detachments which are en-
camped about the city, instructing
them to hold all officers and men in
camp in readiness for any devel-
opment.
At the same time the Provost
Marshal sent patrols through the
streets, ordering all soldiers 10
their camps or posts. In the mo-
ton picture theatres announce
ments were flashed on the screens,
informing all soldiers in the house

once. Officers were called from
clubs, and several social affairs
which had been planned for to-
night were indefinitely postponed.
In the Mexican town across the
river the streets were thronged
with motley crowds of soldiers, re-
Gently arrived from the South, and
thousands of refugees, who have
been arriving daily from the fam
ine-stricken areas in the interior.
Agitators addressed the crowds
with strong anti-American senti-
ments from the street corners.

Plaza Principal in the shadow Of
the sun-bleached walls of the old
Cathedral of Guadalupe.

TREvINO THREAT
WILL BE IGNORED
Orders to Pershing to Do
What He Thinks Best
Still Stand.
LFrom The Tribune Buresu

Washington, June l6.-Any threat 70
attack made by General Trevino or any
other Carranza officer in Mexico VIII
not in any way affect General Persh-
ing's orders as to the movements Of his
troops. These orders are 10 take any
steps to suppress Mexican bandits that
he may deem necessary. He has been
instructed, however, not to advance MS
lines further, except in pursuit OF out
laws or in defence of his own men.
Neither the State Department nor
the War Department has received con-
firmation of the Chihuahua statement
that Trevino has notified General
Pershing that any further advance by
the American troops in Mexico will be
resisted by the Csrranza forces.
The fact that Trevino threatens less
than Carranza did in his recent note, IN
that he makes no objection to the
troops remaining where they are, con-
vinces officials that his threat is meant
for home consumption. Reports TO the
State Department from all parts Of
Mexico, particularly from Chihuahua,
show that there is demand on Car
rama for resistance that is rapidly
growing alarming, and may force Car
ranza's hand at any moment. For this
reason il is supposed that Trevino put
out his proclamation to quiet the popu-
lace temporarily.
Coincident with the alarming devel-
opments of the international situation
have come reports of decided improve
ment in the internal affairs of Mexico.
The Mexican Embassy announced to-
day that a crushing blow had been
dealt TO the Zapatistss in battle south
Of Mexico City, which lasted twenty
hours and in which 200 railroad cars
and locomotives. several printing out
fits and ammunition machines were TAX
en-. The Zapata movement is believed
TO be broken up, and scattered rem
nants of the bands have taken 10 the
mountains.
The Zapata brothers have controlled
the state of Morelos for years and have
been constant menace TO the peace Of
Mexico City. Even Diaz was unable
20 stamp out their activities, and Car
ranza's victory is therefore regarded
as the most important since his decisive
defeat OF villa.
Mexican Elections Called.
The Embassy announced also that
municipal elections had been called
for the first Sunday in September. and
would be followed by national cleo
ions for Representatives. Senators
and President. Votes will be denied
20 persons who held Office under Huer-
ia.
These announcements, particularly
the latter, are regarded as refuting the
repeated rumors that Carrsnzs's power
is waning and that he may be COM
pelled to abdicate. Many Of these ru-
mors are believed TO be started by in
terventionist interests or by overzeal-
Gus friends Of the Administration. snx-
ious TO justify intervention in the
event that IL may prove expedient TO
intervene.
Il is known that some Administrs-
ton officials not directly concerned
with the handling Of international af-
fairs have urged the President to inter
vene in Mexico, and. TO remove the
principal argument against II, have
spread the report that Lstin-Amerlea
