WILSON CONSISTENT ONLY
IN HIS VAClLLATlON.

AS it is with war;" so it is
with ''intervention." President
Wilson has again and again said
he would not "intervene" in
Mexico. AS a matter of fact
he has intervened continuously
but as he never fol-
lowed any policy of either inter-
vention or nOnintervention with
any observation-disclosures yielding
at the critical moment to some
bandit chief of whom he became
fearful-both his spasms of in
tervention and his spasms of
nonintervention have alike been
entirely futile.-From the speech
Of Col. Theodore Roosevelt, de-
Tweed at Lewiston, Maine, in
behalf of Charles E. Hughes.

NOT GUILTY, PLEA OFENCINEER HELD FOR FATAL WRECK
Pilot of Gilt Edge Express Answers Charges of
 Manslaughter.

West Kingston, R. T., May l. Charles H. Mansfield, of New Haven, Conn.,, engineer of the Gilt Edge Ex- press, which was in collision with a local train on the New York, New Ha- wen & Hartford Railroad, at Bradford, April IT, causing the death of five pas sengers, pleaded not guilty today to two indictments charging manslaugh- ter.
 The indictments, which were return ed by a special grand jury last Thurs day, alleged that Mansfield was re- sponsib1e for the deaths of Miss Janet Clarke, of Westerly, and Mrs. Olivia Martell, of Southbridge, Mass.
 Judge Charles F. Stearns, of the superior court, who presided at to- days hearing, allowed Mansfield ten days in which to withdraw his plea, if he desired. He was released on $5,OOO bonds. The states attorenys urged a speedy trial and suggested that it open next Monday.
 Justice Stearns, however, said that because of the serious nature of the case the defendant should be allowed time to prepare his defense. The case probably will not be tried until Sep tember.
 In his testimony before interstate commerce. commission investigators, Engineer Mansfield asserted that the signals in the towers at Bradford were set in a conflicting manner, the dis tance mark being at clear and the first nome" signAl against him.

CONFERENCE ON MEXICO AWAITS
 OFFICIAL WORD
Resumption of Farley At Border Held Up For
 Short Time.

El Paso, May 1.LResumption of the Scott t-F'unston-Obregon conference to consider the American military prob lem in Mexico may not be undertaken until late today or possibly tomorrow when it is believed officials in Wash ington will have had time to digest reports sent them by the American representatives of the war depart ment here.
 Generals Scott and Funston worked far into the night preparing reports and 8 code message was dispatched to the war department just before day break. It is understood the army off, cers have asked permission to take up the question of withdrawal of troops from Mexico which General Obregon, minister of war of the de facto gov ernment, brought to the fore at the conference of Saturday.
 That the conferences will finally set tie the withdrawal question is not be- Heved. Washington, it is said, has suggested that the American repr6E en- tat1ves obtain all possible data that may be produced by the Mexican con- fereees and forward a, full report for the consideration of the state depart ment, which now has under advise ment Carranza's g request for withdraw al of the American troops.
 Obregon and his party think the conferences will be concluded by the middle of the week.

REBELS LAY DOWN ARMS AT PARNELL MONUMENT T i; HUNDREDS ARE CAPTIvES

til the authorities made provision for them. The supplies thus brought in were ample.
 Down Corkhin and King Edward streets, strong guards of troops are still in evidence and every passerby is challenged,
 The city hall had been occupied for several days by the rebels and even at this time, snipers in houses in the vii cinity were shooting at intervals.
 As the correspondent approached the castle a party of more than 100 cap tured members of the Sim Fein marched by under escort, toward Rich mond jail, where more than 700 are now held. Many of the men were in green uniforms. One wore the uni CTS were in civilian clothes. Numbers of them were wounded and suffering but most of them held up their heads defiant1y.
 The soldiers escorting them were men who had fought all through the against their rebellious fellow coun- trymen than the troops brought over from England.
 This feeling seems to be shared by most of the people in Dublin. St. Ste phen's Green, where the rebels en- movement was begun on Monday, was almost deserted. Around Trinity Col lege and the old, Irish parliament quiet reigned. The Officers training corps. near the college, had done much to suppress the uprising. AL
 Great damage was done in SackvilIe street and adjacent thoroughfares sue has Middle Abbey, Abbey Mary and Henry streets. sn1y girders and window frames of some houses re- IT aimed. Along the east side of Sack vile street, from Henry street to O'ConneH bridge, the buildings are battered beyond recognition. The post office is merely a smou1dering frame work. The stone Young Mems Chris tian association building, oH the same side of the way, Twas perforated by eight shells, the Catholic club by two and the bind institution by two.
 Bodies of slain rebels were being carried away in groups by soldiers, many of them having been shot sew eral times.
 When the authorities gave orders that the people were ta be allowed to enter the streets today some of the poor began footing but this was stopped at o'clock when troops cleared the streets again and arrested every one who did not move promptly.

ACCUSE ACTRESS OF FLEECING OLD
 WOMAN OF CASH
Hazel Stewards Name In volved in Glavin's $ Fight to Avert Extradition.

The charge that Hazel Stewart, a moving picture actress, and her lover. Michael J. Glavin, used hypnotic in- fluence to get large sums from Mar l that J. Stoothoff, an elderly woman of great wealth, was made this morn ing when G1aYin appeared before Judge Webb in the superior court to fight the attempt to take him back to New York state on papers signed by Governor Whitman of New York.
 Relatives of Miss Stoothoff, who is 75 years old, claim she is under in- fIuence of Miss Stewart and, Glavin and they have brought proceedings in the Greenwich probate court to have a conservator appointed for Miss Stoothoff. Glavin made a dapper ap- pearance in court this morning but lost some of his assurance when Judge Webb remanded him to the county jail pending an appeal to the supreme court of errors. e
 The New York state authorities want Glavin on the charge of aban- doning his wife for the charms of Miss Stewart. It is said, however, that G1avin fears that if he is sent back to New York other charges will be brought against him. On April 16 G1avin was arrested in Greenwich on the technical charge of breach of the peace. The following day he was ar rested for obtaining goods under false pretenses and Miss Stewart was ar rested for ,infidehty. The pair have not been sentenced pending the dis position of the superior court pro- ceedings.
 As soon as requisition papers ar rived from New York, Attorney John c. Chamberlain of this city, of coun- se1 for G1avtn, brought habeas corpus proceedings which were heard today Attorney Raymond Hackett from the states attorneysss office opposed the granting of the writ. When Judge Webb refused to prevent G1avin from being taken from this state, Glavin's lawyers wanted him released on bail pending an appeal to the supreme court. This was also denied but the court granted a stay of execution on the New York requisition pending the supreme court appeal
 Walter M. Anderson, clerk of the Greenwich borough court filed suit in the superior court thi morning asking the court to determine the ownership of $1, 200 furnished for bail for Glavin and Miss Stewart when they were arrested in Greenwich. Rel atives of Miss Stoothoff claim the money was obtained by the arrested pair from the aged woman but Att torney George P. Rowell of Stamford says the money belongs to him.

VICE COMMISSION
 URGES PURCHASE. OFSTEEPLECHASE
Wants Permanent Commis sion to Supervise Conduct
 of Amusement Park.
SALE PRICE SAID TO
 BE ABOUT $4OO, GOO
But City Through Park Board May Institute Con
 demnation Proceedings.

Notable among the recommenda- tions which will be included in the forthcoming report of the vice com | mission is one that calls for} the ere ation of a permanent commission on recreation, and for the acquisition for that commission, of the 70 acres of land once known as Pleasure Beach, but more lately as iSteep1echase or Sea Breeze Island. The vice commissions recomme1da- ton of the establishment of an amuse- ment or recreation commission is based upon reports of investigators which are interpreted to indicate the need of a properly regulated place of amusement suitable for family recrea- ton.
 While the details are as yet only under discussion. the general scope of the plan is to inaugurate an amuse- ment park, with the city in charge, with its concessions for sale to lessees, who are to operate them under the supervision of the municipal commits sion.
 The purchase of the island would be effected, under the plan of the vice commission, through the park depart Tnent, which has the authority, in event. of unsatisfactory negotiations with land owners, to take property for park purposes under condemnation pTOC00Q1nSS, the court d Ndlud- ton on the property.
 The park board has at it's disposal. now, for park improvements, as the result of the approval at the recent special election, $265,O in bonds, to be sold, probably at a slight premium. The plan of the park board is to use the bulk of this cash in the Payer weather Island project-the extension of the boulevard at Seaside Park from the present. end, to lighthouse on Fayerweather Island, and to build a bridge from this extended boulevard across Black Rock harbor into Brew ster street.
 The money to be realized from the park bonds, judging from the cost of the boulevard extension thus far com p1eted, may be too little for the com p1etion of all this work, and unless the park board is willing to cooperate in the project, it may be defeated for lack of cash.
 The property is owned by the heirs of the late John H. McMahan. It is reported that the owners price is in the neighborhood of $40O,O00.
