He is willing, however, to Join in the mediation conferences for a settlement of issues between the 'Mexican people and the. United States if he is Invited to do to. This was the message brought to thft Latin-American mediators today by Juan Urguidi, an agent of the constitutionalist government. Urquldi is a brother of the late Pres. Madero's minister of communications. lie was f-ent hero to act for the constitutionalists. Frquidi bore a formal letter from Gen. Carranz-i, setting forth the constitutionalist chiefs views on the purely internal aspects of the situation. This letter made it clear that Gen. Carranza will positively decline to admit the discussion of the land question or any other internal affairs f Mexico to any mediation proceedDeals With International I.nsuc. "The document which I bring from Gen. Carranza to Ambassador Da Gama deals solely with the international questions at issue here," said Mr. I'rquidi. "It does not deal with the internal problems of Mexico. Gen. Carranza has already made clear his position on the subject. He has de1 ateii that the internal questions must be dealt with by Mexico alone, and that he cannot consent to their discusMn by any mediation conference in whieh he may lie grouped. "It follows that he cannot agree to any proposal for the creation of a provisional government since that is purely a domestic affair. He has not i'ti.i!ufil his opinion on that point.

He received his letter from Emilio Zuharan, minister of the interior in the Carranza, cabinet, which is now in Washington. DURANGO. Mexico, May Gen. Carranza. first chief of the constitutionalists, today made public the following dispatch which he had sent to Rafael Zubaran, his agent in Washington: "Six days ago the 'A.n.C.' conference began to treat the international contliet between the United States and Mexico occasioned by the arrest of several American sailors by soldiers of Gen.

QUEBEC, May 29. Trapped and drowned without warning, hundreds of passengers of the Canadian Pacific liner, Empress of Ireland, perished early today in the worst marine disaster that has ever occurred in Canadian waters. The Empress of Ireland was rammed in a dense fog by the collier Storstad. The liner sank within ten minutes, carrying down with her men, women and children who had boarded the vessel yesterday at Quebec to sail to Europe. The disaster occurred in the St, Lawrence river only a few miles from Father Point, Que. The Storstad, though badly damaged herself, stood by to rescue survivors and .was assisted in this task by the Lady Evelyn and Eureka, which were rushed to the scene when the wireless station at Father Point picked up the "S. O. S.'9 call of the rammed liner. When the Empress of Ireland sailed she carried 990 passengers and a crew of 432 men, a total of 1,422 sovds. According to the wireless operator at Father Point, "about 337" were saved. He sent this information in a despatch received here shortly before noon. The despatch left 1,085 unaccounted for. Of the rescued 22 died of injuries and exposure after being taken to Rimouski. This left the estimated death list at 1,107 but there was a hope that pilot boats s?nt out after the Storstad, Lady Evelyn and Eureka arrived at Rimouski might pick up more survivors-

This Is the account of the rescues given by J. McWilliams, the wireless operator ;t Father point, in Ns dispatch: ) "The Empress sank ten minutes after the collision with the collier Storstad and immediately after she had Marconied out the "Save Our .Ship.' Mr. White, the wireless operator, instantly notified government steamers In view and the Eureka. "Capt. Belanbcr was the first to get away, his vessel having steam up when he received word of the disaster. She must have reached the scene about ?0 minutes after the disaster. -The Lady Evelyn had to get up steam before she could go to the! steam before she could go to assistance of the disabled ship. "When daylight broke I saw on the gray horizon, with the aid of a tele scope, the collier with the two government steamers and nine lifeboats all around the same spot and shortly afterwards the Eureka came up with 22 survivors and several bodies. "Iiter came the Lady Evelyn with Captain Kendall and more and still later came the Storstad with a few more bodies'. All landed at Wharf. "All were landed at the Bimouski wharf, to which point the scene of activity and interest has now shifted. About 337 saved In all." The dispatch from McWilliams contradicted a report received earlier in the day that the Storstad, in addition to picking up many bodies, had alone rescued 360 survivors. The efforts to get a complete story of the disaster were bafiled by difficult weather conditions that interfered with tho wireless despatches. McWilliams' dispatch was corroborated shortly afterward by one sent from Bimouski by G. W. Henderson, a Montreal broker, who was rescued when the Empress of Ireland sank. His despatch follows: "337 saved; 22 drowned while attempting to swim ashore; 12. women rescued; 990 passengers and 4 32 crew aboard. Earlier in the day Henderson had sent a despatch saying $00 had been rescued. When his second message was received hope that the number of survivors might be increased was practicaly abandoned. The task of identifying the vessel which ram.ned the Empress of Ireland was made difficult by the swiftness with which she disappeared. Wireless despatches from the scene of the disaster, said that both ships had disappeared from view in less than two hours after they came together. As soon as word of the disaster was picked up along the coast the marine department ordered out vessels to aid the vessel. Capt. Kendall, of the royal naval reserve, was in command of the Empress of Ireland. He was captain of the Montrose, which brought Dr. Harvey Crippen to America. First Word of I)iatrr. The first word of the disaster was contained in frantic "S. O. S." signals which were picked up at the station at Father Point. The operator on board the Empress of Ireland was sending his message with the desperation f despair. Up to the last moment he fcept pounding his key and the fuet that the last message was broken off in the middle, showed that he had stuck to his post until the very last. The Empress of Ireland was a big modernly-equipped liner with a steel hull, bulkheads and all the other provisions designed to prevent disaster at sea. When word w:s received that she was sunk, marine -xperts guessed that the vessel which ran her down had been traveling faster than the rules of safety required. It was still dark when the vessels came together and this feature added to the difficulties of the ships which

fS-TME a

29, 1914. set out to help survivors. Practically all of the passengers on board ship were asleep in their berths wh-jn the vesst.ls. came together. Tumbled jFrom Ilerths. The passengers were first aroused to the dangers of the disaster when they were tumbled from their berths from the impact of the collision. The Empress of Ireland, which was struck on the side, was rolled over on her beam ends. Terrified passengers rushed to the decks, shouted for life belts and some of them in the frenzy of their panic, leaper over tho rail into the sea. The wireless stations along the coast not only kept up a constant string of queries, but the operators were on the z-.nl frw ') nv i n f nrm n t inn thrnwinc the disaster, & . . .. 4 niu S SOOH ua Vapidia bword of the disaster he began send ing out wireless messages addressed to tho wireless operator of the Empress of Ireland. Message after message was directed to the operator and finally Captain Walsh was reluctantly compelled to admit that the vessel of the disaster received here. (Jet ?Ioro Xcws. At 3:40 the following message was picked up: "The Canadian Pacific liner Empress of Ireland was in collision in the St. Lawrence river with the Hanover of the lied Star Gorman line." These were the bare details contained in that message, but it was guessed from the brevity of the despatch that there had been distressful circumstances or more details would have teen sent. Five minutes later the Great Northwestern Telegraph Co. received these telegrams: "Daylight Is breaking. I can see several lifeboats. The government steamers Eureka and Lady Evelyn and collier are in the distance. We can see no trace of the Empress of Ireland or the Hanover." This was followed five minutes later by another message signed by "J. Williams, wireless operator," saying that 135 or 140 had been saved. Just about the same time Captain Walsh, head of the rm.rine department of the Canadian Pacific railway, received a message stating that the Empress of Ireland had been in collision with a ship. Captain Walsh did not believe the disaster was serious, as the Empress of Ireland was designed for safety and had to bo rammed through two bulkheads before she would sink. In the meantime marine agencies all along the coast were striving for details of the disaster and every scrap of news strengthened the belief that the dinster would take a heavy toll of human life. Colliers Disabled. The Norwegian collier Storstad, with which the liner was In collision, flashed word to the Father Point wireless station at. 6:40 o'clock that she had been badly damaged but was able to proceed under her own steam. The following wireless message (CONTINUED ON PAGE 16) TWO SOUTH BEND MEN REPORTED KILLED IN AUTOMOBILE CRASH ROCHESTER, Ind.. May 29. Two 5outh Bend men headed for the Indianapolis races were killed fifteen miles south of here about noon, due to their automobile running into a ditch. Names and other particulars not known. The above message was received today at about 2:30. but despite all efforts further information proved unavailable. A number of South Bend auto parties left for Indimapolls this morning.

Canadian Pacific Head Says Life Boats Could Have Rescued All MONTREAL, Que., Sir Thomas Shaughnessy. president of the Canadian Pacific railway, issued the following statement this afternoon regarding the loss of the Empress of Ireland: "The catastrophe, because of the great loss of life, is the most serious in the history of the St. Lawrence route. Owing to the distance of nearest telegraph or telephone stations from the scene of the wreck, there is an unavoidable delay in securing official details. but we expect a report from Capt. Kendall in the course of the afternoon. "From the facts as we have them it is apparent that about 2 o'clock this morning the Empress of Ireland, when stopped in a denso fog, was rammed on the port side hy tho Norwegian collier Storstad, in such a manner as to tear the ship from the middle to the screw, thus making the water-tight bulkheads with which she was provided, useless. "The vessel settled down in four ten minutes. The accident occurred at a time when the passengers were in bed and the interval before the ship went down was not sufficient to enable the officers to rouse the passengers and get them into the boats, of which there were sufficient to accommodate a very much larger number of people than those on board, including tho passengers and the crew. "That such an accident should bo posrible in the St. Iawrence and to a vessel of the class of the Empress of Ireland an dwith even' possible precaution taken by the owners to assure safety for the passengers and the vessal is deplorable. The saddest feature of the disaster is, of course, the great loss of life and the heartfelt svmpathy of - everybody connected with the company goes out to the rel Uives and friends of those who met death in the ill-fated steamship."

SALVATSDNiSTS SING HYMN AS LINER SINKS

"God Be With You Till We Meet Again" Cheers up Doomed Passengers, MONTREAL. Que., May 2f. When the liner Empress of Ireland steamed away from here yesterday she carried 165 members of the Salvation Army from the United States and Canada bound for the world convention in London. To the accompaniment of the army band they were singing "God Be With You Till We -Meet Again." This prelude to the accident in the St. Lawrence river made the disaster a near parallel to the sinking of the Titanic, whose passengers sang "Nearer My God to Thee", as the White Star liner went down'. Among the members of the Salvation Army on the Empress of Ireland were: David Rees, territorial commander of the Salvation Army in Canada, Col. Sidney Maidment and Mrs. Maidment. Brig. W. S. Potter, leader of the brass band f sixty pieces, all of whom were on board. The latter included Kenneth Mclntyre, of New York. Col. Timothy Gaskin, field secretaryMaj.
