WASHINGTON AROUSED


WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. IL.
Indignation swept official cir
cles here today with the word of
the Mexican slaughter. Prompt
action to obtain redress and to
prevent repetition of the incident
was started by President Wilson
and Secretary Lansing.
Consuls in northern Mexico
were ordered to report the de-
tails. The U. S. will hold Car
rama responsible.
Armed Intervention in Mexico,
establishment of representative
government there and immediate
American evacuation after this
has been accomplished, was de-
manded today in senate resolu-
ton introduced by Senator Sher-
man of Illinois.
This resolution, actuated by the
Mexican massacre of Americans
Monday, had counterpart in the
house when Representative Dyer
of Missouri introduced a resolu-
tion asking the president to ad-
wise congress If "watchful wait
ing ought not to be ended.
The British embassy inquired
as to the Englishmen who were
killed in the massacre, and it is
expected that protest will be
made.
The state department expects
that Carranza will Immediately
dispatch troops to seek the MUIR
ders and protect other Americans.

In the bank protection work on
the Puyallup river was made to-
day by Government Engineers w.

of Puyallup, who represented the

The eastern engineers COM
mended the commissioner on the
drift barrier which was built to
catch the stumps and logs washed
up from the river bed.
Object to Diking.
Their biggest objection on the
bank protection work was to some
of the types of diking. They said
the best type of bank protection
is a bank covering composed of a
layer of brush extending from the
waters edge into the river with
the upper portion made of con-
crete slabs. This type has proved
satisfactory on the Mississippi,
they claimed. hsr
There is a possibility that the
idea of Strengthening the river
will be abandoned. The dredging
of new channels is an expensive
operation, and 1t is said that the
river in time will erode the banks
to such an extent that bank pro-
lection will have to be added In
the end.
The federal engineers favor
more river bank reinforcements.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 21.-Inves-
tigation of reports from Panama that
a 60,000-acre land concession at the
Atlantic end of the canal is being
sought J a Spaniard named Fernan-
dez, presumably for Japanese interests
was ordered to-day by Secretary Lans-
ing.
Mr.. Lansing refused to discuss the
report in details but il was considered
significant that the department should
commence its action. Rumors of q
similar nature have been common ever
since the canal was we'll under way.
that they reached a we'll defined out
line. At that time it was commonly
believed in diplomatic circles that pri-
Vate japanese shipping interests were
seeking land through Spanish inter-
mediaries to establish a base for stor-
ing coal at lower rates than could be
had from the American government
monopoly base. So far as known moth
ing definite came of that plan.
The present reports are that Fer
nandez, Havana agent for japanese in
terests, secured a 60,000-acre land con-
cession through the activity of Ramon
Naldes whose recent election to the
presidency of Panama may possibly be
disputed by the United States because
of alleged frauds and coercion.
Admiral Concas, of the Spanish
Navy, selected by the Panama govern
ment as umpire to settle the dispute

chase of canal property is alleged to
have given very valuable information

WILL BE AVERTED
Want to Accept Wilson's Plan
but Also Preserve Principle
of Arbitration
ANOTHER CONFERENCE
Brotherhood Delegates Are
Acquainting Congressman
With Details of Dispute

Washington, Aug. 21. The rail
road presidents and their committee
of managers worked steadily to-day
to devise some means of averting the
threatened strike which would in
the main accept President Wilson S
plan but at the same time preserve the
principle of arbitration.
Leaders of the railroad executives
declared they were united against the
Presidents plan as II stands and hoped
to agree on some form of counter pro-
posal.
The railroad presidents were con-
sidering under what circumstances
they could find a way to accept the
eight-hour da" basis and still conserve
the principle of arbitration which has
become the cruX of the whole fight.
Western railroad presidents arriving
seemed confident that 4 way would be
found to avert the strike. No confer
ence between President Wilson and
railway executives is expected before
tomorrow afternoon.
Serious But Not Hopeless
The men after a brief meeting to-
day adjourned until tomorrow await
ing developments and meanwhile sent
delegates to congressman to acquaint
them with the details of the contro-
versy.
The situation continued as both
sides expressed it,serious but not hope
less.
The committee of tho $40 railway
brotherhood representatives, who. al
ready have accepted the President S
proposal. continued to-day to mark
time pending the employers decision.
President Wilson holds firmly to ar
bitration as a principle in the present
controversy. He has so informed
