MISSING WIFE FOUND
VICTIM OF AMNESIA
Mrs. John H. Eldred Telephones
Husband from NorWalk Hotel.

Four days of aimlcss wandering, a
victim of lost identity, ended as sud
denly as it began yesterday, when Mrs.
John II. Eldred telephoned from Nor
walk, Conn, to her husband, at the
Hotel McAlpin, saying that she was
safe and again in possession of her
faculties. Eldred hurried TO her hotel
in Norwalk and brought her back TO
the McAlpin, from which she dissp-
peared last Thursday.
Eldred, who is a wealthy paper manu-
facturer in Cohssset, Mass, brought
his wife to New York in the hope that
quest for new clothes among the
Fifth Avenue shops might cause her to
abandon the melancholy thoughts that
had been induced by long illness. For
two days he was successful. Thursday,
however, she disappeared from their
suite and no trace of her could be
found.
On returning with her husband Mrs.
Eldred explained that she had suddenly
become victim Of amnesia, had wan
dered from the city and did not know
anything Of her actions until she sud
denly discovered that she was at Nor
walk She had pawned $500 ring for
800 in order 10 pay her expenses.
Eldred said that his wife appeared
much better. and that they would con-
tinue their shopping here, after which
they would return TO their home in Co
hssset. Until he received the telephone
message from her he was convinced
that she had taken her life.

There was a grinding Of brakes and
the train was stopped just as the front
projection from the trucks prodded the

about a disturbance and resumed MS

FROM star respondent ~ In- i0ouhe.l
FL Paso. Tex, May efforts made
BY General Obregon tonight to induce
the United States to cease its troop
activities in Mexico and contine the
chase of raiding Mexican bandits to
the international border failed.
II is understood that General Oore
gon again brought up the subject OF
definite date for American troop with
drawal from Mexico. He again was IN
formed. it is said. that the American
government is firm in its refusal to
make this concession.
II was suggested TO him that IN vie"
OF the Big Bend raid, under the nose
of Carranza troops, the United States
could scarcely consider the De facV-
government as fully capable yet OF COP
ing with the bandits.
In the face of this statement Cen
eral Obregon is understood TO nave
asked for more time to consult with
General Venustiano Carranza
On mis- return to his private car ~
Juarez, after the conference, General
Obregon made the following statement
TO the press: cL..x

Of the frontier by troops OF both coun'
tr;es Each country, under this ar
rangement, would patrol It's own SIDE
and cooperate with the other IN run

General Scott is understood TO have
said he would be glad 70 present the
proposal TO the Washington govern
ment.
The withdrawal OF A. J. McQuatters,
president Of the Alvarsdo Mining and
Milling Company, from the fifth con-
ference. was one of the interesting de-
velopments Of the day. Mr.. McQuat-
ters arranged the second conference at
which General Scott and General Oore-
gon drew up their tentative agree
ment and which had been presented at
each subsequent meeting until to-day
About noon Sub-Secretary Amadoi

him that the Mexican conferrees object
ed 10 the presence Of Mr. McQustters
He asserted that Mr.. McQuatters had
been a former supporter OF Huerta anc
later of Villa; that because Of his min
ing interests in Mexico he held inter.
yentionist tendencies, and that he had
not preserved secrecy regarding pro
ceedings at previous conferences.
Later Andreas Garcia, Mexican Con-
sui in FL Paso. wired Mexican Amoas'
sador Arredondo. at Washington, tc
protest TO Secretary of War Baker
against Mr.. McQuatters. Nevertheless
when General Obregon and Secretary

PLOT TO KILL KING

Socialist.Anarchist Party Ac-
cuSed of Conspiracy.

Stockholm, May 9.--The "Aftonbla-
det" prints to-day rumors of an unsuc-
cessful plot by socialists and anarchists
against the life of King Gustave.
Sensational rumors are current,
says the newspaper, "of a plot by the
Young Socialist-Anarchist Party against
the life of the King of Sweden in re-
venge for the conviction of three so
cialist leaders of the Anti-Militaristic
Congress recently.
"The attempt on the Kings life was
planned to be made at the horse show,
but the conspirators were foiled By the
mobilization of the entire detective

5000 More Troops Ordered TO Border
FUNSTON ASKED MORE
THAN 5000 TROOPS

Ell Pa,o. Tex. May 9.-It
is known that General Funs-
ton had asked the War De-
partment for a much larger
number Of troops than was
allowed him. and some dis
appointment was expressed
at the temporary headquar-
ters Of the Southern Depart
mcnt when word came that
no more than 5000 addi-
tional troops would be sent
to the International bound
ay. All of the reinforce
ments are expected to reach
the border within a week.
Much speculation was in
dulged in here regarding the
action Of Governor Gustavo
Espinoza Mirle, Of Coahuila
in sending 1000 Carranza
troops to the Big Bend dis
trict to hunt down the BAN
dts who attacked Glenn
Springs.
Military men said that if
break in relations between

, Although both the American and
Mexican governments are striving
TO forestall intervention, the situa-
ton confronting the two countries
was admitted here to-day to b., scrl-
Gus. New developments on the bor-
der. the calling out Of the militia,
the repeated requests of the Car
rama government for Withdrawal OF
the first American expedition, and
President Wilson's determination
not to retreat until safety from out
laws is assured, have brought about
a deadlock from which the most
likely escape seems to many people
20 be war.
No Demand by Obregor.
Administration officials continue
to hope that diplomacy will find
remedy. The President is set
against intervention in Mexico, be-
lieving it would negative the results
Of his watchful waiting and Pan
American policies. At the same
time, high officials of the government
will not say that the forces will be
withdrawn if intervention cannot be
avoided otherwise.
The tense situation was eased
somewhat tonight by the announce
ment that General Obregon, in his
conferences with General Scott, has
made no formal demand for the
withdrawal Of the American troops
or the fixing of definite time limit
on their operations.
The negotiations at Juarez and I'll
Paso still are in the informal stage,
it is declared, and no final action OF
any kind will be taken there. The
Scott-Obregon conference is intended
merely to find a common ground on
which negotiations can be reopenei
through diplomatic channels.
The Glenn Springs raid Is not
major factor in the situation. Presi-
dent Wilson sees in II principally an
added reason for insisting on the right
TO maintain an army in Mexico. IL
served 20 demonstrate the inability ot
the Carranza government TO prevent
raids on American territory, and 20
emphasize the necessity Of making no
deal with Carranzs based on his con-
troll of the military situation.
Break Preceded Raid.
But even this is not the reason for
the deadlock at I'll Paso. Before the
Glenn Springs raid occurred the break
between Scott and Obregon had come,

all but ended the conference salts

The agreement reached by Generals
Scott and obregon last week was so
worded as to give both governments
the victory. The troops were to be
withdrawn as fast as the control OF ths
situation passed TO Carranza. For Car
rama, the salient feature was that
they were TO be withdrawn; for Presi-
dent Wilson. the significant fact was
that they were not to retreat immedi-

In her fight TO prove her innocence
Mrs. Archer Gilligan will have the sup

Mary +. Archer. "Why shouldn't the

The woman's most outspoken cham
pion is Benedict NJ. Holden, local
lawyer. who says that he consented TO
act for Mrs. Archer Gilligsn at the
earnest request OF inmates OF the
home.

Of Mrs. Archer Gilligan is concerned
he has not opened them since. Super

Evidence in Cemeteries.
One intimation leaked out. however,
that the prosecution expected 10 have
the alleged poison plot ramify TO nu-
mcrous country cemeteries where per
sons formerly under Mrs. Gilligan's
care are buried. This came from DR.
Arthur J. Wolff, local physician, who
performed a secret midnight autopsy
In Cheshire on the eIhumed body OF
Franklin r. Andrews, for whose death
the founder of the Archer home is held.
From traces Of arsenical poisoning
found in vital organs taken from this
body. the evidence was obtained which
resulted in the warrant for her arrest.
DR.. Wolf refused to say anything
about the second body exhumed in an
other part of the state for a similar
autopsy except that his examination
showed that the poisoning In thlS IN
stance was not arsenical.
"T'm in the hands of the State OF Con-
