Florence Dam Building NOW
 Being Planned.
Special to The Republican,

kSpeClal to ne RepupiICanl
 LOS ANGELES, April 19.-A plan which it is hoped will result in the early construction of the Florence diversion darn, on a basis just alike to the white settlers and the Indians, has been under con- sideration at an important confer ence held in this city, commencing last Thursday morning. The gov ernment has been represented in this conference by Messrs, Trues- dale and Frazier, representatives of the secretary of the interior and by Chief Engineer Reid of the h. dian service, and Messrs. Clotto Reeves and Palmer of the Indian service.
 The various white interests have been represented by Judge o. J. Baughn, and Messrs Clemens, Da- vidson, Oberfield, Jayne and Prouty, known as the landowners committee of six; Messrs. Shultz, Marten and Pinkley of the Casa Grande Water Users association, which is also represented by Judge John H Campbell, and H. M. Fen nemore, representing the Slight ln- terests, and several other individ- uaI land owners.
 Dwight B. Heard, who, as chair man of the state council of de- fense, endeavored to unite the various interests on some plan of actual construction, was also in attendance at the request of both the government representatives and the land owners.
 While the conference is not yet concluded, a better understanding among all interests has been reached than ever before, and there is every probability that definite agreement will be reached early next week, which, as soon as ap- proved by Secretary Lane, will mean actual construction.
 The plans prepared by the en- gineers of the United States In dian service are now ready, to the most minute detail, and it is es- tinated, that barring unforeseen difficulty with the Gila river, the dam can be completed within nine months after construction begins.

OMSK RECOGNITION BEST IDEA OF MANY
 THAT WERE OFFERED
No Allied Army For Russia Regional Plan As 0 Turned Down - Wilson Fully Advised Of Condi- ton
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

WASHINGTON, April 19.-Decision of the governments of Great Britain, France, Italy and the United States to accord recognition to the Omsk gov ernment, as the de facto government of all non-b bolsheviki Russia, was reached after several other plans had been discarded, it was learned today from official sources. Among the pro- posals rejected were the sending Of large allied forces into southern and northern Russia and Siberia, and the recognition of regional governments in various parts of Russia controlled by Russians opposing the bolshevIkl.
 Plans for sending armies into Rus sia were disapproved with little dis cussion, it was said but the proposal to recognize the regional governments was rejected only after vigorous pro- tests. This plan included recognition of the Omsk government, that of Deni- Kline, the government of the north at Archangel and the establishment of a number of small Cossack leaders on the Don, at Orenburg and in the Urals. Want United Front
 When this matter was presented to the Russian representatives in Paris and London, they instantly objected on lilt LlieLI d 01A1NC0 II OAAt 4AAdA7e be presented against the bolsheviki in the east. The Russians also expressed a fear that recognition of regional governments would eventually lead to the recognition of the bolsheviki, who control a large area in western and central Russia.
 Since he has been at Paris, President l Wilson, it was learned today, has been kept advised of conditions in Siberia ! through agents sent to Omsk. These ! agents penetrated into European Rus sia as far as the Siberian forces con- | trolled the situation and were under 1 stood to have reported that the people 1 freed from the menace of the bolshe- wiki terrorists were firm in their op- ! position to bolshevism. Representa- tives of allied government sent into Siberia were said to have made similar reports.
 Other agents were dispatched tt

Cervantes Bows To Federal Sentence Four Associ- ates Also Committed, To Fort Leavenworth-Flor- l. es Gets IS Months
TRepubIscan A. p. leased Wirel

FL PASO, April 19.-A flash of Mexican revolutionary fervor was seen in federal court this afternoon when Colonel Federico Cervantes, chief of staff to General Felipe Angeles, wear ing the French cross of the legion Of honor and a famous military and po- iitioal leader in Mexico. was sentenced to prison, together with his five com panions.
 Colonel Cervantes, standing before the bench with his heels together, his shoulders thrown back and his head high, as if receiving a review in the Mexico City Zocalo, declared he had planned to cross the Rio Grande to join General Angeles in the field, guided by deep love for my country he said.
 q have but one regret, that is that my companions must suffer with me for the cause which I led,' he added. If you have mercy to show, bestoW it upon them"
 Sentenced to Two Years Colonel -Cervantes, Rafael Iturbide, Manuel Icaza, Fernando Liceaga, and Jesus Chacon were sentenced to two years each in Leavenworth prison, and Magdalino Flores was given a sentence of IS months. They were arrested on the night of March IS by Captain Car roll Couts, United States intelligence i chief here. The arrest was made near 1 Socorro, Texas, as the filibustering 1 expedition was in the act of crossing 1 the Rio Grande. A quantity of arms, ammunition, medical supplies, fine saddle for General Angeles, and horses 1 purchased from the Fort Bliss remount station were seized. Eighteen men were arrested, six released and six others acquitted.
 Iturbide and Liceaga came here from Detroit, Michigan, and Icaza from New York, to join the expedition Prior to imposing sentences, Mrs Cervantes, wife of the leader, handed Judge Smith letter, begging him for mercy for her husband, in the name of their little daughter, who sat on her fathers knee during his trial
 Liceaga Explains Purpose
 After Judge Smith explained that the court could not consider the poli- tical aspect of the case, he asked each to make a statement Liceaga, fol- lowed Cervantes and said:
 My intention was to go to Mexico to apply all I had learned of liberty and democracy in the three years have lived in the United States. I am only glad this trial was held in the United States and not Mexico. 1 con- sider 1 did what l did for my country and have no regrets"
 Iturbide, descendent of the famous liberator Iturbide, of Mexican history reiterated the sentiments expressed b! Cervantes.

PREDICTS WORLD SUICIDE

KANSAS CITY, April 19.-Some thing equivalent to world suicide, and that within 10 or 20 years, will be the result, unless the league of nations plan is adopted, declared ex-President William H. Taft in an address in con- vention hall tonight. 4If we do have another war;" declared the speaker, ''it will be as much worse than the war just closing as this war was worse than it's predecessors. In 10 or 20 years, with the inevitable competition in armament which will follow in the absence of a league of nations, there will be a repetition of the conditions which led to this war, and the in creased destructiveness of the next war, which the United States would be drawn into as it was into this, will bring about something equivalent to world suicide"

BIG MINES WILL DROWN WIEN 6O0 MEN QUIT WORK
Serious Situation Confronts Leadville- Unions Refuse To Accept 5-Cent Wage Reduction = Some Com panies To Attempt To Drain - Others Pull Pumps
[RepubIIcan A. p. Leased WIrel


 LEADVILLE, Colo, April 19.-It is conservatively estimated that six hun dred miners, engineers and pumpmen wiH cease work tomorrow morning in the Leadville distrct, and that the AIikado, Greenback, and the lower levels of the Yak mine will be drowned. Since the miners voted at mass meeting to reject the 75-cent wage reductions, no further attempts were made to bring about a settlement
 It is generally admitted that the situation is serious, for it will be the first time in the history of the district that the pumps have been abandoned, thus threatening incalculable damage 70 the mines.
 The principal mines affected by the walkout of miners are the Iron-Suver. the Yak, the Mikado, the Greenback, the Downtown group of properties and a number of leases at the Yak. Thus far none of the Gold Belt properties have been affected, though it is re- ported that the principal owner of the Ibex mine, A. V. Hunter of Denver, had announced his intention of closing the mine, throwing about 250 men out of employment.
 It is stated by various company of ficials that about six hundred men will go out tomorrow, but as other mines are affected the beginning of the week may sec a thousand mine employees idle, with a strong possibility that the Arkansas valley plant of the American Smelling and Refining com pany will close.
 Yak Will Keep Going
 The Yak company will endeavor to keep it's workings drained and in order until the situation is settled. The Mikado, however, has pulled its pumps, and the manager, George O. Argall, stated that the water is rising and there is no means of stopping it until all the productive workings of that region are flooded and the overflow pours into the Downton basin.
 "In spite of all we could do to pro- vide some solution for a bad situa- tion," he said, including an offer to pay wage scale identical with that now in effect in the mining districts of Utah and Idaho, our employees, to a man, expressed their intention of walking out Sunday. We could not all low the men to walk off the job and leave s50000 worth of the finest pump ing equipment at the bottom of the shaft to be submerged and ruined
 Destroy It Permanently
 Mining engineers say that if the Iron-Hill basin, drained through the Mikado is once permitted to flood, the present generation will probably not see it unWatered again.
 The abandonment of the pumps i: admittedly the most serious phase ol the situation. Individual pumpmen asked why they refused to work, have invariably stated that they would stand by the miners, though their wages under the proposed reduced scale would amount to s4.75.
 For the present at least, no attemp will be made to remove any of tn, pumping machinery from the Penros, shaft of the Downtown mining com pany. managed by former Governor Jesse r. Mcdonald. It is thought probable that a volunteer crew ma! rerpain at this property for a few day. to man the pumps there.

LONDON, April 19.-The keenest disappointment is felt at the failure of Major J. ?. Wood to reach Ireland, whence he intended to attemtp flight across the Atlantic, because it had been hoped that an airman starting from this side would be the first to ac- complish the feat It is believed that Major Woods departure must be de- layed greatly, for even if his machine can be salvaged, it will take a long while to get it tuend up.
 Major Wood, it IS believed. must have got out of his course, as the hour he fell into the sea off Holyhead, D. m Friday, was the hour at which he had expected to reach Curragh. on the other side of the Irish channel.
