z DINERS KILLED;
BUILDING FALLS
People in Cafe at Akron, O.,
Crushed by Falling Walls.
BLASTING CAUSED DISASTER
Explosives Used in Excavating for
New Building Weakened Founda-
tions of Structure Used as Cafe
Many Injured May Die.

Akron, O., May 17.-At least dozen
persons were killed and nearly score
injured on Monday night when the old
Beacon Journal building, occupied by
the Crystal restaurant, collapsed as
result of a blast of dynamite in an ad-
Joining excavation. More than fifty
persons were in the cafe.
Seven identified and three uniden-
titled bodies have been recovered, and
two persons now missing are thought
to be in the ruins.
Battery B, Ohio National Guard
field artillery, was called out to aid
the police in restraining a crowd of
more than 10000 persons who packed
the streets at Main and Quarry, where
the accident occurred
A tremendous roar echoing the
screams of dying people, brought
thousands to the disaster scene, in the
heart of Akron's business district. In
stantly the entire city, rallying under
the shock, plunged to the work OF
rescue.
Police and volunteer rescuers
worked frantically digging and chop
ping through the debris.
Nineteen, many of them probably
fatally injured, were extricated and
sent to hospitals. Only two or three
of the others known to have been in
the restaurant succeeded in escaping
before the crash.
Blasts of dynamite, set off in an ex-
cavation for a new building directly
north of the restaurant, unsettled the
foundation. The restaurant was one
story structure, with two-story false
front and the latter toppled back
ward, adding weight of many tons to
the falling roof.
George Ferris, who, with his
brother, Augustus, Ferris, owned the
restaurant, escaped.
A dynamite charge set of, SO feet
away from the restaurant few min
utes before the disaster, is believed
to have been the direct cause. The
structure fell like house of cards.

CARRANzA WILLING
TO LET ARMY STAY
Scott Assures Baker That 0bre-
gon Will Aid U. S.
UNWRITTEN AGREEMENT MADE
Mexican War Minister Promises TO
Put 10000 Troops in Field to Po-
lice Territory About Parral and
In Other Districts.

Washington, May 18.-An optimistic
view of the Mexican border situation
was laid before President Wilson and
his cabinet on Tuesday by Secretary
Baker, after a long conference with
Major General Scott, chief of staff.
General Carranza and his advisers
now understand the motives OF the
Washington government more fully
than ever before, as result OF the
conference at Ell Paso between Gen.
erals Scott and Funston and Obre-
gon, Mr.. Baker was able to tell the
cabinet, and tension along the inter-
national line has greatly relaxed.
General Scott believes that the
whole situation is less acute than it
on Columbus, N. M.
The change in General Obregons
views was clearly indicated by prom
ises he made at the conclusion of the
conference, promises approved by
General Carranza, and which he is
now carrying out with promptitude
and vigor, according to official reports
from army officers and consular Off
Gals in Mexico.
It is these pledges which are inter-
preted as forming an unwritten agree
ment. They include the following:
THAT 10000 picked troops under
General Trevino, the ablest of the Car
rama field commanders, occupy and
police the territory about Parral, the
southern limit of General Pershing's
drive, and in other districts where
there are no American troops;
THAT an effective patrol be thrown
about the Mexican side of the Big
Bend region of the Texas border to
head off the Glen Springs and Boquil-
las raiders:
THAT every effort be made to lib
crate Deemer, the American store
keeper captured and carried away by
the bandits; and
THAT no troops will be moved from
the forces in Sonora state through
Pulpit pass to operate in rear OF
General Pershing's force"
This will be done to avoid the pos
SlB1llLy Oh Clashes, anu loI Tie odAh7
reason no attempt for cooperative
troop movements will be made unless
it be by arrangement of the local
commanders, American and Mexican.
General Scott said that recent re-
ports of Carranza troop movements in
the region south of General Pershing
in his opinion showed that General
Obregon's orders were being carried
out promptly.
