New York, May 10. - Frederick c.
Walcott, member of the war relief
committee of the Rockefeller founda-
ton, when informed that the British
government will permit, under certain
stipulations, the feeding of the civil
population of Poland by an American

meant speedy relief, not only for Po-

All future diplomatic negotiations, if

Conferees Sign Statement
That after several conferences,
marked throughout with conspicuous
courtesy and good WILL in which con-
ferences mutual impressions were ex-
changed and information was collect
ed upon the military situation on the
frontier, it was agreed upon by the
conferees to suspend the conferences
and report back to their governments
in order that these may be able
through their respective foreign de-
partments to conclude this matter
That the ending of these confer
ences does not mean in any way a rup-
ture of the good relations of friendship
between the conferees nor between
the respective governments

FREDERICK FUNSTON.

HSdih a. Sidi htnS TOiHts
The situation is almost exactly what
it was before the conferences began
The Mexican government still insists
ON the withdrawal of General Perish
ing's columns on a certain date and
wants that date to be soon. 1t is claim
ed that General Obregon had been
willing to make concessions in order
to reach an agreement with the Amer
lean conferees, but that he was over
ruled by the first chief, Venustiano
Carranza and his advisers.
Obregon's Manner Abrupt.
The end of the negotiations came
after two conferences had been held
The first began at 10 o'clock in the
morning and lasted until 1 p. m when
a recess was taken until 4 o'clock
After two hours and half however,
they were brought to an end.
General Obregon, accompanied by
Juan N Amador, Mexican sub-secre-
tary of foreign affairs, emerged from
the private car occupied by General
Scott and General Funston, walked
rapidly down the railway yards, climb
ed into his waiting automobile, and
drove away.
The Mexican conferee's manner was
abrupt and vexed, but General Fun
ston smiled cheerily as he babe good
bye.
Does Not Mean Break
1t was pointed out authoritatively
that the result of the various meet
ings in Ell Paso does not mean that
there is any immediate threat of
rupture between the United States and
Mexico. So far as the United States
is concerned, it is said the army in
the Mexican state of Chihuahua will
remain practically inactive. The only
break that can possibly come would
follow an attack by Carranza troops
upon American troops
1t is understood that General Obre-
gon has been warned that such an at
tack will be the beginning of reprisals

HUNDRED SHOTS FIRED IN RAID
ON HEARST CIRCULATION ROOM
Several were shot, one probably
fatally, when a crowd of ehauffeurs
and ex-newspaper sluggers raided
the circulation room of the Chicago
Examiner early Friday Matthew
Foley, boss of the Examiner drivers,
was the most seriously wounded; he
is supposed to be dying with a bullet
in his left lung.
The battle, in which a hundred
shots were fired, was the result of a
bitter feud between drivers for the
Hearst newspaper and chauffeurs for
the NewberTy Garage at 1924 S.
PauIina st.
Trouble started when a newsbOy
selling bulldog editions of the Exam
iner got into a scrap with Harry Mil
Ter of 1925 W. 18th st., employed by
the NewberTy garage.
The Examiner man hit Miller in
the face with a horseshoe and was
arrested. Friends of Miller were sup
posed to have beaten up the Exam
iner man while the case was pend
ing.
A bunch of Examiner drivers
dropped over to Van Buren, st. and
Wabash av. Wednesday night and
cleaned up Miller and a few of his
friends. No arrests were made.
The feud wound up when, at 2:1O
Friday morning, five autoloads of
chauffeUrs, many Of whom had got
their smuggling training with the trust
press, sped into the alley back of the
Chicago Examiner Offices
At the door to the circulation de-
partment they stopped and opened
fire with their revolvers. Examiner
sluggers didn't hesitate long to find

At Madison and Latin one of the
five autos was Overhauled. Foley
jumped from his car into this ma
chine and grappled with Jack Medni-
kow of 1886 W. 18th st. Both men
had revOlvers and when officer Pat
rick LaIly tried to separate them they
threatened to fire. He drew his gun
and shot Foley through the back.
The men in the car were taken into
custody without trouble. They gave
their names at Harry Stiff, 1211 S.

Policeman Frank link, the first
one on the scene, says he ran down
the alley and a half dozen shots were
fired at him. The bullets seemed to
come from both sides of the fight.
He ran back and sent in a riot call;
twenty-five policemen were rushed to
the Hearst offices.
Capt Morgan Collins of LIST pre-
cinct promised rigid investigation of
the affair.
