Carranza's Reply Is
Awaited In Washington
•WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30.—
Tp until this afternoon, past three
•o’clock, the Carranza reply so eager
ly sought for by the government
had not come to hand.
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30.—
Secretary Lansing in a personal
visit to Senor Arrendondo, tlie Car
ranzist representative here asked
the Mexican official to speed up on
Carranza's reply.
Lansing pointed out that tli 13
procrastination in delaying the do
liverance of the Carranza reply is
exceedingly dangerous and likely
to create such a situation that later
ater could not he peacefully settled.
Arrendondo promised to do all
in his power to urge upon the First
Chief of Mexico the desirability ot
speedy action.
NEW YORK, June 30.—The do
lay in the delivery of the Carranza
reply to the American ultimatum is
regarded in many quarters as sparr
ing for time, and it is held that Car
ranza has not now, any more than
at any other time, any intention ot
complying with the United States
demands except in regard to the re
gard to the release of the captured
troopers.
KL PASO. June Jd. The negro
troopers who were returned from
captivity after being taken prisoner
at Carizal, report being subjected to
considerable mistreatment at the
hands of the Mexican otlicials.
LONGSHORE STRIKE IS
SEATTLE, June 30.—The long
shoremen's strike here is about half
way settled with the majority await
ing the outcome of the conference
in San Francisco. There is no
barrier placed to men discharging
on the docks at the present time al
though there seems to lie an unwill
igness upon the part of the t nion
men to do so.
The strike situation is practically
speaking now in the balance wth
everything depending upon San
Francisco.
SAX FRANCISCO, .Tune 30 It
looks now us if tin' mediation con
ference will be a fiasco on the
water front.
A general water front strike was
again threatened today unless the
employers disband their strike
breakers.
SAX FRANCISCO, .Tune 30. The
strike situation is considered some
what improved. In several instan
ces the employing companies have
demonstrated tli**ir l)ona lid*' inten
tion to conciliate tin* unions by
discharging the scabs which had
let*n recruited.
A feeling of bitterness is engemi
ered in some quarters by the action
| of the strikers, especially because
of the fact that some of the compa !
niea lost valuable charters by r» a- 1
: on of the st rike.
The mediation conference may be
’successful it is said this evening.

not affect his fortune to any great (f
