 Expected at Track Meet Today
Condition of Weather Field and Athletes Promises There'll Be New Records Made-Musical and Lit

Competitions were completed yes terday and last night in the high school piano contests, high school Reclamation contests, map drawing, high school debate, preparatory decla- nation and preparatory piano, and were started in the high school read ing contests, and it was a tired but happy and satisfied lot of contestants. teachers and judges, not to mention spectators, who retired late last night to recuperate some strength for the still more strenuous doings on the program for today. .
 It was the consensus of opinion among qualified judges last night, that a record breaking attendance has al- ready been registered for the state jnterscholastic and intercollegiate track and field meet, musical and lit- erary contests. with the greatest bulk of the crowd due to arrive this morn ing, to be here for the athletic con- tests today.
 Not only were the hotels crowded. and all the boarding houses listed with the bureau of information, but hundreds of private homes had their full quota of visitors, and the Boy Scouts were worked overtime yester- day and last night piloting the arriv-

ing hundreds to the places assigned to them by the bureau of information or for which they had made previous arrangement.
 Pine Bluffs own particular brand of the very best of weather was on tap. and everything was ideal for the affairs scheduled for yesterday and today. The rain early in the week had put the grounds and the tennis court "on edge" while the streets were clean and the weather was neither too warm for comfort, nor cool enough to prevent the wearing of comfortable spring apparel by boys and girls.
 The Hotel Pines, general headquar- ters, and where the registration bu- reau and the bureau of information are located. was as busy a place as beehive throughout the day and evening. The lobby, the messanine floor, and the parlors were filled with visitors and home folk and there were all sorts of informal receptions, gen. eral introductions, and all-around good time. Some of the young folk did not overlook the opportunity to make use of the ball room, in an in- formal and impromptu manner. while it was not otherwise engaged.
 Contests Are Started.
 The actual contests in the musical and literary department were started yesterday forenoon. and the events carried out, with the contestants in each, were as follows:

Expect Scott and Obregon Hold Final Farley at Ell
 Paso Today.
OBREGON HOPEFUL
 FOR WITHDRAWAL
Mexican Minister Apprehensive of Trouble If Pershfng's Troops Re. main South of Rio Grande-U. s.
 Officials Arrest Mexican.

Ell Paso, May 5.-Telegraphic ex- changes between Gen. Alvaro Obregon and Gen. Venustiano Carranza over the tentative agreement for Amer ican and Mexico cooperation in hunt ing Villa bandits, have been com- pleted, it was said tonight.
 It is expected General Oregon will hold the next conf erence with General Scott tomorrow on the American side of the Rio Grande, and that a protocol covering the agreement will be drawn up.
 General Obregon may bring up the subject of a speedy withdrawal of the American troops in Mexico at his next conference with General Scott, accord ing to information from Juarez. He will not press the matter, but simply again emphasize the danger of irritat- ing the Mexican people if General Pershlng's army remains south of the Rio Grande and of some consequent conflict that might lead to new com plications. It is pointed out, however. there is not likely to be any change in the attitude of the United States.
 Castro Alleged Conspirator.
 Laredo, Tex, May 5.-Gen. Ildefonso Castro, former Mexica narmy officer, was arrested today on warrant charging conspiracy to set on foot military expedition into Mexico.

PRESS COMMENTS
 ON GERMAN NOTE

New York American--Gegm many has yielded to our demands. Now make England obey international law and respect our rights.
 St. Louis Globe e-Democrat-The tenor of the no1e. showing one con- cession, is not conducive to friendli- ness. The conditions that accompany it are not agreeable and the patience of the government and the people has quite reached the limit.
 New York World-All that part of the German reply which contemplates an alliance between Germany and the United States to break British blockade that Germany herself can not break, is impossible. It is un- thinkable.
 Chicago Herald-Official Germany calls upon us to fight the British navy, if necessary lest women and children shall be starved. Of course. that is precisely, what Germany did at the siege but women and children who starved there were not Germans.
 Philadelphia EnquErer-Germany's answer to the note of the United States is no answer at all An ad- dress meant for public consumption rather than a diplomatic document.
 New York Globe.-The fact that is conceded in the note is conceded con- ditionally. No choice would thus seem open to our government but to carry out it's declared intention to sever diplomatic relations.
 Boston Traveler-The note is an amusing combination of evasion, de- nial, irony and fact.
 Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph - So far as words go Germany has granted our main contention.
 St. Louis Times-The severance of diplomatic relations begins to look remote. The latter paragraphs of Germany's note indicate complete concession.
 New York Evening Sun-As a gen. eral indication as respects the prus- poets of peace the note fills us with gloom. Plainly Germany is not in the humor yet to heed the counsels of humanity. T
 Atchison Globe-More notes, more complications, more intensified bit- terness against the United States. Wei should have warned Americans toI stay at home.
 Muskogee Times Democrat = The German ruler again fails to realize America's viewpoint and our sincere demand that law and humanity be respected by warning nations. The reply to the American note is that of 3 pettifoging lawyer and the promise of future good conduct, qualified with an 'if."
 The Oklahoman-The German re- ply to the American note is disap- pointing in spirit if not in letter. While 1t grants, in substance. the de- mands of this nation with respect tol the conduct of submarine warfare. iti does so on the ostensible theory that we may yet be able to do something toward prevailing upon England toI lift her blockade of German ports-a! question which is not an issue in anyl sense in the existing controversy.
 New London (Conn.) The Day-Wet have made Germany walk straight. 1 It is up to us to make England walk forever Hold our peace.
 Baltimore News-For the time be- ing we are left nothing to complain! of.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1916-05-06
St. Louis Star-Germany refuses the presidents demands.

Tulsa Democrat-Germany's reply is disappointing, but there is yet hope that 8 break may be avoided. The case rests upon the decision of Presi- dent Wilson as to whether the new order to submarine commanders is sufficient to prevent additional sea disasters.
 Dallas es-Herald-What says the president, so say we all-all Americans. Chattanooga News-The immediate issue is whether or not the conces- sions made are sufficient.
 Providence Bulletin-The note is a brutal mockery of the wounds again and again inflicted upon us.
