WASHINGTON, June *.—President
Wilson and hla advisers today were to
take up the new course of action propoeed
toy the South American envoys, designed
to prolong the mediation conference In the
hope of an eventual settlement of the
Mexican dispute. Despite Carransa's
reiterated stand agslnst a discussion of
the country's internal affairs, the medi-
ators, It waa declared, had not given up
hope of bringing the constitutionalists
Into touch with the Niagara conference.
Confirmation was awaited here of reports
that the United tSates hud Invited Car-
ranssa to send his representatives to Ni-
agara Falls to eonfer with the American
delegates. - The latter would transmit
to the mediators and the Huorta delegates
the views of the constitutionalists. This
could be done, It was suggested, without
the need ot an armistice until some agree-
ment was reached and proposed by the
constitutionalists.
Whether Carransa would consent to
such ah agreement, no one th official cir-
cle* was willing to predict. However, in
hi*.latest note to the mediators, reported
to bo on Its way to the revolutionary
gents here. Car anna Is said to have de-
clared that among the subecjts he con-
sidered impossible of dlscuaslon were the
armistice, previously proposed, the mili-
tary movements of the constltutlonsllsts,
the agrarian question and the designation
of a provisional president
While Secretary Bryan declined to dts
cuss Mails of ths mediators new propo-
sals be reflected ths revlvlal of optlmlsaa
at Niagara Falls by reiterating that the
progress of mediation was "satisfactory."
Still Fighting.
News of the siege of Zacatecaa was
closely watched here. Revolutionary
gents were Jubilant over reports had taken
fighting yesterday their forces had taken
three federal positions, evidently outside
the main defense.
Some confirmation of statements that
Villa and Carransa had patched up their
differences was seen In denials from Tor
reon that Villa had proclaimed General
Angeles provlslonl president. "Nothing
has been further from my mind," Villa
wan quoted as deoloring.
In telegrams exchanged between Villa
and Carransa's confidential agent on the
border, the fighting general was reported
to have asserted that no differences ex-
isted between himself and the "first chief
and that he proposed to prevent such a
crises, "because of the needs of the
country." ,

conference with Gen. Carransa at Baltlllo
Is expected to reach Washington some

Coupled with news of his departure,
reports were heard here today that he
might take charge of the constitutionalists

ister of the Interior of the Carransa cabt

unta for several weeks. Members of the

At Least One Indictment in the

In the congressional battle now being
waged between Pat Malloy of Tulsa and
.lame* S. Davenport of Vinita, the loyal-
ty of the Tulsa voters to tho candidacy
of a favorite son and the further loyalty
of the people of the first congressional
district to the Interests of the city that
Is Its pride and which is always ready
to lend n helping hand In all matters
pertaining to the upbuilding of all the
towns and cities In Eastern Oklahoma,
Is being put to a severe test, and the
results so far manifested Indicate the
triumphant nomination and election of
the Tulsa aspirant for congressional hon-
ors.
Realizing that the vote in Tulsa and
Tulsa county Is certain to go overwelm-
Ingly against him, the postmaster ring
as organised at a meeting with Daven-
port In this city last week Is sending out
literature over the district urging as
Davenport's sole claim to the nomina-
tion that Mslloy Is a Tulsa man and
therefore not eligible. In this political
Infamy the ring Is being aided and abet-
ted by a ve"ry small group of Tulsa pol-
iticians of the down nnd out order who,
while sanctioning this style of cam-
paign that Is being used to Influence
voters outside af Tulsa at WnVaYe en-
deavoring to spread a venomous poison
that will In turn consume them when
they later on venture to show their heads
The people of the ■ First
had sufficient of politics
and politicians. What they demand
now Is ability, honesty and service, all
of which Is emplified In Pat Malloy, who
Is now as good as the demo-
cratic nominee for congress In spite of
the extravagant claims of Davenport's
postmaster ring.
Pat Malloy is a Tulsan and he don't
deny it. Indeed he is proud of the dis-
tinction. It means as much to him as
It used to mean to the Roman to be
known as a Roman citixen. His for-
tunes are inseparately linked with the
destinies of Tulsa. It Is the city that
gave him his first start, where he set
out his first shingle and achieved all
hi* triumphs In law, politics and public
life. No man Is therefore more typically
a Tulsa cltisen. And yet Pat Malloy Is
not the only Tulsan of such a stripe.
There are hundreds of people living here
who are possessed of a similar spirit and
disposition snd that Is one reason why
ho If being accorded such a royal sup-
port by the home people.
District fJot Unfriendly.
Davenport presumes, unwisely, that
the other towns In the district are un-
friendly to Tulsa, which Is indeed far
from the case. As between a citizen of
Vinita who as a congressman has ac-
complished nothing and a cltisen of Tul-
sa who In the short space of four years
as county attorney has achieved nation-
al prominence there Is only once choice
for voters of tho district to make and
that is to vote for Malloy In the August
primary. The contest is not between
towns.
It is between men and the personality
of the candidates is the only question st
issue with the voters. If Davenport's rec
ord proves him to be the best man for the
district he should be nominated, but if
Pat Malloy Is Davenport's superior, as
not a single man in the district will deny,
then by right the nomination should go
to him. The first district Is entitled to
representation in congress Instead of the
misrepresentation It has received from
James 8. Davenport.
There waa a time In the early history of
Oklahoma when a spirit of Jealousy exist-
ed among the different cities and towns
In the State. But that period has long
since passed. Instead of being Jealous of
Tulsa, thia city Is now the pride of east-
ern Oklahoma. Every town within a one
hundred mile radius of Tulsa Is .a friend
of this city. There la not a town within
that radius that Tulsa has not befriended
whenever the occasion presented Itself.
The progress of Tulsa has been marked by
a spirit of absolute unaelflshness In poli-
tics and commercial achievement. For
that reason a Tulsa man In congress could
be depende dupon to work for.the Interest
of the district as a whole, and Pawhuska,
Collinsville, Miami, Claremore, Bartles-
ville. Pawnee, Cleveland, Grove and all
other towns and cities would feel satisfied
of a square deal in all matters affecting
Iheir individual and common Interests.
No Politics! Domination.
The fact la that Tulaa has never in Its
history made any effort whatever to domi-
nate the political situation to any extent.
Tulsa never endeavored to land any stste
institution and no state officer ever hailed
roin this city. J'ulse has always been sat-
isfied to sit back snd permit the political
plums to fall into the laps of cities less
fortunately altuated from a commercial
and Industrial standpoint. The Tulsa peo
pie are not now insisting upon the noml
nation of Pat Malloy simply because he Is
resident of this city, but because they
feel that It is to the Interest of every clti-
sen in the district that it be ably repre-
NEW YORK, June 10—The national
commission, the supreme court of base-
ball, looks with favor on the proposition
to establish a third major league.
This was the sonoucement made by
President Barrow, of the_ Internatlc
league, who with other members of tWfc
league conferred with the commlssior
session here today.
According to Barrow, the project was
fathered by Ban Johnson, president of
the American league and 's aimed to
check the Invasion ot the Federal league.
Though tentative as yet. Barrow said
the plan es discussed called for a league
embracing eight clubs, four In the esst
and four In the west. Baltimore would
be among them.
Barrow said further that the commis-
sion looked with favor on abolishing the
draft rule from the class AA leagues
as snothcr method of checkmating the
Federals.
The commission Was still In session
when the International league president
made his statement.
When the committee meeting ad-
journed, Ban Johr.son confirmed what
Barrow had said, and added:
"The deal Is as good as consummated.
Some sort of announcement will probably
be made within a week or ten days."
Clubs frcm the International league In
the east and the American association In
the west will make up the now circuit, if
the proposal Is carried out. Baltimore,
Buffalo. Toronto and Newark will make
up the eastern four.

MEXICO CITT, June if.—The procla-

constitution recently adapted by con-
gress by which a new territory division
ot tbe republic was established, took place
today with the traditional military cere-
mony.

to three entities to be known as the state
of Chihuahua In the center, the territory
of Bravo In the north and the territory
of Jlminex In the south. Morelos la de-
prived of its statehood snd made into a
territory.
I

raising of thoroughbred boraea was dem
onstrated conclusively S few days ago
when Gainer, a 8-year-old coult, bred and
raised at Blackwell, Okla., was sold at
tbe Belmont race track at auction
$12,000. Gaiuer has been entered lu some
of the most valuable puree and stake events

Luke McLuke snd Rudolfo In the historic
annual Kentucky Derby.
Gainer belonged to J. L. Holland, an
Oklahoma man, wLose entire atable was
sold at tbe same time. All tbe horses
nold were Oklshoma bred save two and
the entire lot brought 137.000. Tbey all
were raised on Holland's stock farm st
Blsckwell.
