Jenkins Accused
OF Trying to Re-
Enter Prison

Mexico City, Dec. 5.-William O.
jenkins, United States consular agent
at Puebla, who was released from
prison on Thursday night, attempted
to secure his reimprisonment there to-
day, according to special dispatches
received here late tonight by the Ex-
celsior. Judicial authorities at Puebla
refused to allow the consular agent to
re-enter the prison.
Mr.. Jenkins move, according to dis
patches, was prompted by desire to
secure unconditional liberty, Mr.. Jen-
kins being quoted as declaring that
bail was furnished by his friend, J.
Walter Hansen without his knowledge
and that he refused to accept condi-
tional freedom.
Hilario Medina, under secretary of
foreign relations, is quoted by the Ex-
celsior as stating that hte release of
Mr.. Jenkins had removed all cause for
friction between the United States
and Mexico.

Mexican Bandits
Loot Ranch Store
and Make Escape

Zapata, Texas, Dec. 5-No word had
been received tonight from county au-
thorities who were searching for an
unknown number of mounted and
heavily armed Mexican bandits who
last night raided and looted store on
the Clareno ranch, on the American
side, eleven miles southeast of Zapata.
1t was believed the bandits, after the
raid, Immediately crossed the Rio
Grande into Mexico, whence they are
supposed to have come. They carried
away all the provisions in the store,
but aside from binding and gagging
the storekeeper, did not molest any
body on the ranch, according to re-
ports.
Texas rangers from Laredo were
reported en- route to the scene late
today. The identity of the bandits
still is undetermined. A number of
Mexican federal soldiers are reported
garrisoned three miles below the
Clareno ranch on the Mexican side,
while Mexican custom guards were
stationed almost in front Of the Clar-
emo ranch store, which is situated on
the river banks, according to reports
here.

PRESIDENT is
STILL in BED
confers With Senators Fall and
Hitchcock on Mexican Matter
Still Mentally Alert; Listens
Attentively to Senators.

Washington, Dec. 5.-Two senator's,
delegated by the foreign relations
committee to confer with President
wilson on the Mexican crisis and re-
port whether, in their opinion the
uresident, by reason of his illness,
was unable to exercise his functions,
left the White House after confer
ence Of three quarters of an hour with
him today, agreeing that he was in
touch with recent developments and
was mentally keen enough to form
judgments on the questions confront
ing the nation.
In the midst of the conference,
while Senator Fall, Republican, of
New Mexico, was outlining the evil
dence on which he is urging break
in diplomatic relations, the president
and his callers were informed that
William O. Jenkins, the American
consular agent at Puebla, Mexico,
jailed there, had been released. The
advices left some doubt t~as to the cir
cumstances, but the development was
accepted generally as relieving some
what, relations between the two gov
ernments.
The discussion with the president
produced no definite conclusion as to
the Mexican relations, but it was re-
garded everywhere as bearing on a
subject of endless speculation in con-
gressional circles - the extent to
which the long illness of the chief
executive has made him physically in
capable of the duties Of president.
Propped up in bed, the president
talked Of many features of the Mexi-
can tangle. With a right hand and
arm free above the bed cover, the
senator's said, he shook hands with
them and took up and read papers
which were on the table beside him.
- "@o NSoCIlpCu DIS weak dIlQ Il6T-
vous, but it was said he jested about
exaggerated reports of his illness, and
promised within a few days to give
congress his advice on what it should
do about Mexico.
He appeared to be sick man."
Senator Fall said afterwards, "but
mentally alert and perfectly able to
cope with any question with which he
may have to deal. He appeared to me,
certainly, in as good mental condition
as any man could be after being i'll
Ior nine or ten weeks"

zee, Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, of
NEBRASKA, said the president seemed
greatly improved since he saw him

JENKINS FREED
BY MEXICANS
Demand Of the United States is
Recognized and Consul is Re-
leased-Two Reports of Re-
lease Differ Somewhat.

Washington, Dec. 5.-William o.
Jenkins, the American consular agent,
imprisoned at Puebla, Mexico, was re-
leased on Thursday night.
The American embassy in Mexico
City reported his release in an official
dispatch received by the state depart
ment this afternoon, and almost at
the same time news dispatches were
received from Mexico City which said
a check for $500 had been deposited
with the civil authorities at Puebla.
This difference in the two reports
seemed to raise some doubt as to
whether Jenkins was released uncon-
ditionally on the diplomatic represen-
tations of the United States govern
ment, or whether he had been released
on bail, as the Mexican authorities
have contended he could.
The state department, however.
took the view that Jenkins had been
released on it's diplomatic representa-
tions and issued statement which,
after announcing Jenkins release,
said:
''The release of Consular Agent
Jenkins was brought about by urgent
diplomatic representations made by
this government and the resulting in
vestigation made by General Pablo
Gonzales, who was sent to Puebla by
the Mexican government to investi-
gate the facts in the case. The inves-
LEGATIONS by General Gonzales, who
was at Puebla December 8, had then
practically substantiated the position
taken by this government on behalf Of
jenkins.
"Two poems from Santa Lucia adj
mitted to General Gonzales that they
had made declarations against Jen-
kins under threat of execution. Other
witnesses testified they had been COM
PEELED to make false statements
against Jenkins under duress. One
witness was threatened with a pistol,
another suspended by rope, and still
another beaten until he made his de-
claration against Jenkins.
'These facts are shown in the court
record of the case"
Every effort was made here today
to check up on cabled report from
Mexico City saying that, according to
a Puebla dispatch to Mexico City
newspaper, jenkins was released after
u. Salter Hansen had deposited a $500
check for bail. Officials of the state
department said they had no informa-
tion whatever concerning Hansen or
the question of bail, and that they did
not know Hansen. They stood on the
statement that the consular agent had
been released on demand of this gov
ernment.

COAL SHORTACEIS is
LITTLE IMPROVED
Prospects Good For Increasing
Tonnage of Coal Mined-Traf-
tic Men Are Busy Shortening
Schedules.

CS1CuuleS.
Chicago, Dec. 5.-There was optim-
ISM IN the east today that soft coal
production was slowly increasing, in
spite of the miners strike and surface
indications that changes for the bet
ter were anticipated among the oper-
ators, but there was little improve
ment in the shortage situation any
where and closing of industry and re-
duction of business hours continued.
A one-third reduction in passenger
service now has been ordered on most
all government controlled railroads of
the country. The eastern and south
ern regional directors today took near
ly the same action as the directors of
the north, central and southwestern
regions took yesterday in ordering a
one-third reduction in "train miles"
whcih meant cancellation of many
trains and much luxury equipment.
Two famous twenty-hour trains be-
tween New York and Chicago-the
Twentieth Century and the Broadway
limited-were ordered suspended.
Tonight traffic men were busily en-
gagged in preparing the shortened
schedules. The Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul system had arranged for
cancellation of 36 trains. More than
a dozen fast trains on the Missouri
Pacific, the Frisco and the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas systems were or
dered eliminated The reduction in the
north central and southwestern regions
is eeffctive Monday.
Delegates at a sub-district conven-
tion of miners in West Virginia, called
on 10000 miners in four counties to
return to work, even though dissatis-
fed with the ID per cent wage advance
offered by DR.. Garfield.
Governro Cox of Ohio, after a con-
ference with operators and miners to
be continued on Monday, said pros
poets were good for opening some of
Ohio's mines soon.
Only few men returned to work in
Missouri, where Governor Gardner
had called out the state militia and
appealed to the miners to return. The
mines were seized and volunteers for
mining will go to work soon.
Governor J. A. B. Robertson of
Oklahoma, proclaimed martial law in
the mining counties in that state, the
first time in the history of Oklahoma,
and an attempt will be made to oper-
ate mines with volunteers.
Volunteers continued working in
the Kansas strip mines today.
Three companies of federal infan-
try left Camp Lewis, Washington, to-
day, for the Montana coal fields.
Governor Frank 0. Lowden of Illi-
nois, telegraphed DR.. Garfield urging
appointment of commission to de-
eide basis for settling the strike.
A party of 250 business men and
officials of % states, comprising the
Mississippi Valley association, ar
ranged to go to Washington tomor-
row to confer with fuel and rail Of
ficials relative to improving transpor-
tation and distribution of coal in those
states.
Governor Samuel r. McKelvie, of
Nebraska, started for Washington to
urge DIR. Garfield to appoint admins
traitors for each state.
Governor Gardner postponed indefi-
nitely the conference of governors
called Sunday in st. Louis.
