LEADERS BIDDING FOR PROGRESSIVES' VOTE
Republicans and Prohibitionists In-
s
vite Them To Join In p. Body— Still Some Power.
INDIANAPOUES. Ind., June 20.— JThe progressive party may be extinct "and without a leader elsewhere, but .judging from the scramble of the other political parties to have the moose jpin with them, they must figure that the moose vote is still to be recKoned with in Indiana. Chairman Will Hays of the republican state committee is preparing a ukase to the bun uot«»e voters to have them join in with the republicans in the election next fall. It toill be issued in a few days. It would have been done sooner but Hays figures that most of the progressives aVe already back in tfie republican ranks.
The prohibition leaders "beat the republicans to it." They sent a letIt today to Edwin M. Lee, state progressive chairman, inviting the proRressivcs to unite with them and to send a committee to a conference to be held at Indianapolis Monday, June '26 The letter says the progressives have either to swallow Watson, Goodrich and New or accept "the democratic reactionaries." It is in part, as follows: "Human welfare," as set forth in your platform principles, both in 1912 and 1914, has been the central thought of the prohibition party declarations
Since the party's founding in 1872. Your enthuBiasmic party must either support New, Watson, Goodrich and i,t si'ch standpatism as they typify or follow the lead of the democratic reactionaries. Tour choice for governor at the March primary, ex-Governor J. 'Frank Hanly, in declaring himself henceforth a prohibitionist, has simply pointed the way to a union of forces thai, if consummated, will mean the 'gteatest possible progress in the attainment of national prohibition, woman suffrage, a non-partisan com- ,, amission of tariff experts, adequate label legislation and the 'true Americanism' that true christian diplomacy will make the influence of our nation the greatest in the shaping of the world's destiny."

sires to avoid hostilities at any cost save the loss of national honor, but that in any event foreigners would be protected.
Minister of Foreign Affairs Aguilar declared that serious complications could only be avoided by the withdrawal of the American troops. He said he regretted that the United States misunderstood the attitude of the Mexican people, who had become distrustful because of the failure to recall the American soldiers.
Editorials in the official organs strongly condemns the Washington administration for refusing to recall General Pershing's column and request the American government to make good its oft-repeated protestations of non-interference in the internal affairs of Mexico.
SAN DIEGO, Cal., June "20.—An ultimatum amounting practically to a declaration of war against the United States was served on Commander Arthur G. Kavanah of the gunboat Annapolis' by General Flores, Carranza governor of the state of Sinaloa, according to a radiogram sent from the Annapolis at Mazatlan and received here by Admiral Winslow, commander-in-chief of the Pacific fleet.
Owing to the low-powered radio set of the Annapolis, difficulty has been experienced in communicating with the gunboat, but enough facts have come through to indicate that General Flores has taken a hostile Btand against Americans and that it was his refusal to permit Americans to leave Mazatlan that resulted in the clash Sunday between bluejackets of the Annapolis arid Mexicans, cftaracterlzed as Carranza soldiers.
The exact substance of his ultimatum has not yet been received. According to the reports received, the commander of the Annapolis advised all Americans in the vicinity of Mazatlan to leave as soon as possible. A boat from the war vessel, containing Ensign O. O. Kessing, Paymaster Andrew Mowat and a number of bluejackets approached the wharf, Ensign Kessing being under orders from Comjmander Kavanagh to arrange with the Mexican authorities to get out all Americans.
Without provocation, it is reported, the Mexicans opened fir© on the sailors and Boatswain's Mate I. M. Laughter was seriously wounded. The Americans returned the fire, and, as far as known, six Mexicans wert either killed or wounded.
Earlier reports that a drunken Japanese started the trouble are hot borne out in reports received here. EnBign Kessing and Paymaster Mowat were taken prisoners and sent to the fortress, but later were released, on demands presented to Flores by Commander Kavanagh.
