unanswered.

An investigation Is being made
by the Rumanlan authorities, aided
by Russian friends of the two fam

two families fled from their estate

The tow ropes broke several times.

ter the yacht lost its tow it drifted
at the mercy of the storm and the
refugees, six men and five women,
became exhausted from the cold
waves breaking over the vessel and
lack of food, Unable to manage
the yacht, the party made a der

on the dasolate beach near Sulina.

SONORA NOT IN
. REVOLT AGAINST
MEXICO, CLAIMS
Revolutionary Leader Says
the State Is Loyal to the
Republic But Has Turned
Against Carranza.

Aqua Prieta, Sonora, April To-
Sonora has not proclaimed itself A
repuhlic. nor does it intend to re
main severed from the republic Of
Mexico. but it has withdrawn from
the CarranZa government of Mexico
and the entire forces of the state
now are in revolution against the
present national administration,
Francisco Elias leader of the revo-
mtionary movement in eastern
Sonora said here tonight.
Senor Elias said he was eE-
pressing the sentiments of Govern
or and commander in chief of the
Sonora military forces.
"Thr state of Sonora Withdrew
from the domination of the Car
rama dictatorship. merely" said
Senor Elias. THE withdrawal was
to uphold the sovereign rights of
Sonora. Governor De La Huerta
in a formal statement explained
this purpose He said Carran2a
planned to send troops into the
state to set up a military dictator
ship in defiance of the Mexican
constitution. A demand first was
made on Carranza to have him re
cogni2e the states rights and he
refused.
"Carranza threatened to break
the Sonora movement with troops
and his threat has been met by
Sonora arming Thus peaceful
revolution has been turned into
civil warfare. Sonora has no fight
against Mexico or any state in
Mexico, but it is in revolution
against Carranza and what he rep
rese 1ts.
Neither can the movement
properly be called a secession un-
less IT is a temporary one. When
Sonora Is certain of her constitu-
tional rights she will return to the
Mexican republic. Until that time
the state is an Independent com
monwealth, ready to fight for its
full rights"
Elias went to Washington as one
of the delegation of prominent
Mexicans who sought recognition
Of Carranza from the United
states.

nary strike for more pay"

dition would be serious indeed But
there is no such power. The abso-

Labor Court Holds Meeting.
THE department of justice had
no additional announcements to
make tonight to support its conclu-
sions. The only development Of
the day affecting the government s
connection with the strike situa-
tion was the organization meeting
of the railway labor board, which
met with seven of its nine members
present, elected officers and deter
mined to take up beginning tomor-
row the whole question of railway
wages at the point where the b-
partisan discussion between men
and employers dropped it some days
ago, unable to reach a conclusion.
While tactics of the railroad
strikes were wrong and disavowed
by organized labor, Mr.. Morrisons
statement said, this should not
prevent an honest" understanding
of the facts. His own viewpoint
as to causes of the strike, he ad-
ded, was based on reports gathered
by employers representatives not
in sympathy with the strikers.

CONCLUSIONS OF PALMER
THAT REDS ARE BACK OF
RAIL STRIKE, CHALLENGED

Morrison continued. while the
government, through the attorney
general, is contemplating repres-
sion and punishment, treating the
strike as a crime, the real employ
ers know that the strike is an out
break against economic conditions"
After reading the digest of these
reports, the conclusion is evident
that whatever the merits of the
strike, it is chiefly just plain Or
dinary strike for more pay.
New York and New England in
vostigators reported they had found
strike sentiment strongest among
the intelligent and conservative
men," Mr.. Morrison said. Many of
the strikers have served for long
periods on one railway, he added,
and never before were known as
agitators. Other observers found
no virus of disloyaIty or revolu-
ton in the ranks of the disaffected
workers except the usual evidence
of extremists who are riding the
strike as sometimes happens to be
the case"
Mr.. Morrison declared the rail-
road executives were fully in
formed" as to the character of the
strike and "they know that the
outbreak is under no revolutionary
direction
Not of Revolutionary Origin.
According to data gathered by
the employers from their represent
atives in close touch with the strik-
ers throughout the country the
statement added, "the yardmen's
walkout is not of a revolutionary
origin"
The fifteen men who made the
report on which this conclusion Is
based are in close touch with these
men and are in their confidence.
The association which gathered the
reports comes in intimate official
contact with railway matters and
is national in scope. 1t is not at all
in sympathy with the strikers or
their point of view.
"A digest of these reports shows
that in all localities the reasons
advanced by the strikers for their
action are startlingly alike. Every
one OF our Investigators, the digest
says, is firmly convinced that so
far as HIS territory is concerned
the strike is all-American and en-
trely devoid of bolshevism or /.
w. W.ism, and that up to the end
Of last week the radical element

of the appeal was made here today
by Francisco Elias a leader in the
Sonora revolt against the Carranza

port of entry to the United States
