FLYERS RESCUED
Matlack to begin his perilous journey
into the bandit country.

Answered Signal Flares.

Answered Signal Flares.
Captain Matlack said this morning
that the two aviators landed in Mex
leo, contradicting the story of Lieu
tenant Peterson. He said the two
aviators thought they had landed In
the United States and this impression
on their part was not corrected until
after they had reached the border
early this morning.
The aviators, the captain said, had
become confused while in the air and
had mistaken the Conchos river for
the Rio Grande. Instead of landing
near Candelaria, as they thought, they
had landed at a point near Falomirgn,
Chihuahua, more than forty miles up
the Conchos river where they aban-
doned their wrecked airplane after
stripping it Of machine guns and vital
parts which might make it of use to
the Mexicans.
Thinking they were on the Rio
Grande, they started down stream in
an effort to locate Candelaria and re-
port their accident to military head
quarters. They landed at 1880 Sun
day afternoon and were picked up
wednesday morning by Jesus Renteria
and a band of five other Mexicans.
They were taken into the mountains.
but thought they were approaching
Valentine, Tex. They were told that
sixty men belonged to the band while
in reality the aviators saw only twenty
men at the ranch where they were
held.
Captain MatIack said the bandits
were we'll mounted. The Americans
tried once to escape but were threat
ened with death ana did not renew
their attempt.
Many Plans for Ransom.
Various plans for obtaining the
ransom money were discussed by the
bandits One was for the delivery of
the money by Americans in the middle
OF the Rio Grande. Another was for
the aviators to be taken one hundred
yards up river and the money taken
an equal distance down river and both
left at the same time. Finally 1t was
agreed that an American army officer
should be sent from the American
side upon signals from the bandits by
means of flares. At the same time
Renteria was to start from the Next
can side with the Americans. They
were to meet and exchange prisoners
and money.
The Mexican government will pro-
vide ransom money demanded by the
bandits who captured Lieutenants Da-
Wis and Peterson, Ygnacio Bonillas,
Mexican ambassador, said here today.

tiated the treaty under discussion. The
president sat in the conference rather
as a responsible delegate to Versailles
than as the head of the national gov
eminent. Altho Mr.. Wilson himself
discussed the first draft of the league
covenant with the committee at the
famous White House dinner of last
March. senators said there was no
exact parallel for today's formal ques-
tioning of chief executive on treaty
actually before the committee for
ratification. The nearest approach,
they said, had been the action of
President Washington in going before
the senate itself in executive session to
discuss questions involved in treaties
with the Indians. In asking for to-
days appointment the committee &C
cepted an invitation extended in
formally by Mr.. Wilson soon after he
submitted the treaty tc the senate.
The committees request said certain
information was desired and that
members preferred that they be not
required to hold in confidence any
thing the president might say To
this latter suggestion the presidents
decision to have stenographers present
was a sequel
Wilson Has 1.-The Buck"
More than one of the witnesses
questioned by the committee, includ-
ing Secretary Lansing. have declared
the president personally negotiated
details of the league of nations cove
nant and the Shantung provision. and
that he alone of the American dele
gates could give some of the informa-
ton desired.
As a consequence, the members
framed their questions to cover partic-
ularly these two features of the treaty.
There were many other provisions,
however. on which 1t was planned to
ask for light before the talk with t.
president was concluded. Some mem
bers thought another conference
would be necessary.
The conference offered the first OPP
portuuity for the president to confront
some of the most determined oppo-
nents OF the treaty in its present form
and some of the bitterest critics of his
course in the peace negotiations.
There are seventeen members OF the
committee as follows:

one leading expert as most likely for
salvage.
Capt A. P. Gardiner has located
thirty-eight hulls of sunken vessels off
the coast of South Africa and believes
that one-quarter of them may be re-
deemed. Some of them are more than
100 years old. Eight of the ships Sc
lected as susceptible of salvage. with

It is premature to conclude that the

Naval~divisions here and at Dakar
