LOCAL SITUATION REMAINS THE
 SAME

A special meeting of the COrdOya Longshoremen's Union was held at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon for the purpose of considering a cablegram received yesterday morning from Cor don J. Kelley. vice-president of the International Longshoremen's Associ- ation. The cablegram was as follows;
 Seattle, Wash, April 19, 1916. E. K. Irving.
 Longshoremen's Union,
 Cordova. Alaska
 Interviewed Baxter, Pearson, Ring wood, and advise that you interview local representatives and ascertain terms they will grant if you resume work and jointly refer all questions of final adjustment to our convention and Seattle employers. Place this telegram before men and inform me of attitude if you see employers.
 GORDON J. KELLY.
 After the cablegram had been read in meeting, the longshoremen decided to appoint committee of three mem bers to interview Superintendent Caleb Corser, of the Copper River & Northwestern railway. The commit tee promptly called up MT. Corser over. the telephone in an effort to arrange for an interview. Mir Corser informed the committee that he could not recog nize them except as individuals. The committee returned before the meet ing adjourned and reported that Su- perintendent Corser refused to recog- nize them as representatives of the union. The longshoremen then voted to continue on strike. This is the present status of the situation. accord ing to E. K. Irving, secretary and act ing delegate of the Coraoya Long $ 2sorenea's uuien.

GREAT BRITAIN |S
 SERIOUS

LONDON, April 19. It is gen orally believed that the rock which has split the present cabinet open is the question of conscription. The matter has been thorn in the sides of the government for months, the majority of the members faVoring conscription but a powerful minority opposing this remedy. What the re- suit will be is difficult to forecast, but wise political observers. conversant and familiar with the vagaries of Brit ish politics, feel sure that Asquith will weather the storm and that his fertile brain will find some method of reconciling the conflicting opinions now causing dissension among the members.
 LONDON, April 19. - Premier Her bert Asquith addressed the House of Commons today and informed the members that there still remained some material points of disagreement between the members of the coalition cabinet in regard to certain phases of the conduct of the war. and unless

WASHINGTON. April 19. - When the president concluded his address to Congress, with the expression of a hope that Germany would so act as to avert a regrettable break with the United States. the body broke into cheers. Wilson spoke just fifteen minutes, being only once interrupted by applause, and the members re flected the gravity of the situation in the earnest attention with which they listened to the chief executives re- marks. On concluding, the first rip pie of applause started on the Demo cratic side of the House, but the Re publican members joined at once. The Democrats rose in their seats and soon the entire membership was standing and cheering, accompanied by the people in the galleries, where all avail able space was occupied.

NEW YORK, April 19. - It is claimed on good authority that the officers have succeeded in identifying Vonigle with the conspiracy to blow up the Welland canal. News of the formal demand made on the state de- partment for the release of Vonigle has been received here, but the de partment of justice has decided to hold the accused man until the state department specifically demands his release. The release is asked for on the ground that Nonigle is connected with the diplomatic force of Germany in this country, and therefore not sub ject to arrest on ordinary process. The department of justice contends that the crime with which Vonigle is charged was committed year before

 WASHINGTON. April 19. - When President Wilson addressed the joint session of Congress regarding the state of this country's diplomatic re- lations with Germany, he faced a packed house, every member of both houses who was in the city and able to attend being present. When the president arose at the right of the speakers rostrum, the interest was intense, and not a sound could be heard throughout the great hall. He was listened to attentively, and ap- plause interrupted him only once un- til he had finished, when the entire assemblage cheered the chief execu tive, all the members and spectators standing. The demonstration testi- fled to the loyalty and patriotism of Congress, and the bodies will un- doubtedly stand unitely behind Wilson and the cabinet in any foreign crisis which may arise over the submarine controversy,
 Wilson did not read his message to Germany, but discussed it frankly, saying that he had told the Berlin diplomats that the United States was firm in it's demands that the illegal warfare on merchant ships carrying American citizens be discontinued. Wilson said that he had given Ger many in this last message. irrevocable notification that the United States would break off diplomatic relations with Berlin if the illegal submarine campaign was persisted in by Ger many.
 In his talk the president asked Con- gress to take no action on the matter,

WASHINGTON, April 19. The reason why the president went before Congress to consult the legislators on the state of the nations relations with Germany over the submarine contro- versy was that while as president he has authority to break off diplomatic relations with foreign countries, Con- gress alone has the power to declare war. There has been only one in- stance in modern history when a breaking off of diplomatic relations was not followed by a declaration of war.

HIS LAST WORD ON QUESTION

but simply informed the members of the accumulation of facts which the state department had collected which proved that the previous assurances given by Germany were being vio- lated by the submarine commanders of the Teuton navy, despite the earn est protests of the United States. He said that after arriving at an agree ment, limiting the scope of the sub marines activity, their use in the present European war has been con tinued apparently unrestricted, and with renewed activity in contraventiOn of all the laws of nations and the rules of humanity. In concluding, he said that the final continuance of friendly relations between this government and Germany depended solely upon Germany's conduct and her reply to the note. Words and promises alone would no longer suffice. Germany must show by her actions that the lives of neutrals. exercising their rights by travelling on the merchant ships of a belligerent will not unneces- sariy be put in peril.

WASHINGTON, April 19. -- Secre- tary of War Baker today sent General Hugh Scott, chief of the general staff of the army, to San Antonio to get explicit information on the Mexican situation and the condition of the Pershing expeditionary force. Scott will report to the secretary after con- ferring with General Funston, and his report will assist in determining the course which the government will pursue in Mexico. The officials of the department are hesitant about order ing any radical change in the status of the expedition in the face of Gen eral Carranza's request to recall the troops. The German situation is com plicating the question somewhat, and the Mexican policy will not be defi- niteIy settled until the European mud dle has cleared. At present it is ab- solutely impossible to forecast the at titude of the administration concern ing General Pershing's expedition.

SURF PASSES ALL
 PREVIOUS RECORDS

NEW YORK, April 19. - Interest in college track and field athletics continues to increase among the east ern universities, and the coming sea son promises to surpass all previous records, both in number of meets and stars who will compete. While there is no unusual incentive for special training, as would have been the case had not the European war caused the abandonment of the Olympic games, larger squads of candidates are trying for places on the teams than in many years.
 Reports from the coaches of mum Der of the leading eastern institutions all agree that the material, both in quality and quantity, is considerably above the average standard, and that a number of records are likely to be broken during the coming competitive season. While the belated winter has delayed the beginning of outdoor raining in some cases, the coaches ? expect to overcome this handicap and send their charges to the mark in the big meets prepared for the hardest kind of competition.
 That the struggle for points and prizes will be unusually keen this sea son is shown by the number and class of entries already assured for the principal meets. The University of Pennsylvania relay games, which real ly open the Easter track season, has attracted a larger entry than ever be fore; many teams coming from the south and west. More colleges will compete in the intercollegiate cham pionship meet at Cambridge late in May than in any year since the assO- citation was formed in 1876.
