PLANS Entire Range of Mexican Affairs In cludedTakes in Conflicting Ele ments Within the Republic Carran za Accepts Mediators Ask for Arastice Better Hope of Adjust ment tf Crisis from Entry of Con stitutionalists into Peace Plans. Up to the time of going to press, 3:30 o'clock thi3 afternoon, The Rob esonian had received no news bulle tins today in regard to the Mexican situation, so there have been no im portant developments since the dis patch of the 29th published below. If anything important occurs the public "will be promptly informed through Th Robesonian'8 bulletins, which will rbe posted as soon as received on its bulletin board. Washington Dispatch, 29th. The scope of mediation plans for the settlement of the Mexican crisis was suddenly broadened tonight so as to include the entire range of Mexi can affairs not alone from the critical issue between the United States and the Huerta regime but also the con flict between tlje elements of northern and southern Mexico which have rent the republic for many months. The signal enlargement of the mediation programme followed the receipt late in the day of a formal acceptance from .General Carranza, chief of the Con stitutionalists, of the principle of me diation as proposed by the ambassador from Brazil, and the ministers from Argentina and' Chile. Already the United States and Gen eral Huerta had formally accepted the good offices of these South American envoys and now as a further step, General Carranza has been brought into the deliberations so as to draw every element and faction within the range of any settlement which may be attained. Earlier in the day the mediators made another decisive move in asking the United States and General Hu erta t agree to an armstice by which all aggressive military operations would be suspended pending the out come of the negotiations . The media tors confidently expected both sides to accept the armstice proposal. A sep arate proposal for an armstice as be tween Huerta and Carranza also will be made and with its acceptance, all of the warring elements throughout Mexico as well as the American forces, would maintain a military status quo. The American government in its for mal reply to the armstice proposal will stipulate expressly that any un toward act toward Americans will be regarded as an infraction of the armi stice. The South American envoys were in session throughout the day. Up to adjournment they had progressed steadily on their plans, and foresaw a definite statement within the next few days of their contemplated action. During the evening the envoys indi vidually conferred with their col leagues in the diplomatic corps from Central and South America to lay be fore them what had been done and discussed the general situation. This emphasized what the mediators have been seeking a purely Ameri can settlement of a -crisis which e Acts the political integrity of all Spai.ish America. The patriotic unity of all Mexico and all Spanish-America was expected to give a signal evidence to the world at large, and particularly to Europe, of what the American repub lics could do for the tranquility of the Western Hemisphere at a time of supremo crisis. President Wilson and Secretary Bryan were pleased at the entry of General Carranza and the Constitu tionalists in the peace plans, their hopes of a broad and satisfactory ad justment of the present crisis being raised to a degree of confidence which they hitherto have not felt. Other Developments Since Monday European diplomats in Washington are said to be pessimistic over the successful outcome of mediation pro posals by South American govern ments to prevent war with Mexico. As one of them expressed it, it is as if Huerta "is to be invited to step out and commit political suicide- and to expect him to accept the invitation." A report from Admiral Badger to the Navy Department fixed the num ber of Americans that had been killed in Vera Cruz up to Monday at 61 . According to refugees arriving at Brownsville, Texas, Monday from Monterey, the Mexican Federals ar rested Consul-General Philip C. Han na there last Wednesday because they found in the consulate ammunition stored by the German and American . Consuls for the purpose of self-defense under a permit from Mexico City. The Mexicans, refugees say, took Consul Hanna in charge and escorted him to the Governors palace, where he was held in a room until released Friday morning by tne Constitutionalists af ter the Federals left the town. Ten other Americans were thrown into jail and some Mexicans were detained in the Aerican consulate under guard. French Ambassador Jusserand an nounced in Washington Monday that . the French Legation in Mexico City had informed him by telegraph that all Americans in the Mexican Capital were safe. The dispatch declared that there had been anti-American dem onstrations, but that they were not wious, and that, the city was then quiet.

TROOPS ORDERED TO COLORADO State Militia Unable to Cope With Situation and Asked for Help Riots and Pitched Battles Between Strikebreakers and Striking Miners. Washington Dispatch, 28th. President Wilson today extended the protecting arm of the Federal Gov ernment to the State of Colorado, where because of riots and pitched battles between strikebreakers and striking miners, Governor Ammons had found the State militia unable to cope with the situation and asked for help. The Colorado delegation in Congress mineowners and miners themselves joined in the request. It was one of the rare occurrences in American history when a State found itself impotent to assert its au thority but the President in a tele gram to the Colorado Governor, ex pressly stipulated that the Federal troops would confine themselves to maintaining order only "until the State can reassert its authority and resume the enforcement thereof." The President issued a proclamation ordering all persons engaged" in do mestic violence to disperse and "retire peaceably to their abodes," before April 30. Secretary Garrison after a conference with the President, or dered three troops of the fifth cavalry from Fort Leavenworth and - two troops of the 12th cavalry from Fort D. A. Russell, Wyoming, to Trinidad and Canon City, respectively. Colorado members of Congress say the mere presence of Federal troops will prevent rioting. Efforts of the Federal Government to settle, the strike thus far have failed. On this point the President made it clear that Federal troops were being sent merely to preserve order and not to interfere with the strike controversy itself. The coal-miners strike nas been in progress in the northern part of Colo rado for over three years and in the southern part since last fall. A much more serious war has been in progress in some of the raining sections than .has yet occurred in Mexico. .Nine Men Killed in Labor Trouble Yesterday. : A last night's dispatch from Den ver, Colo., states that Colorado's 7 months oOndustrial conflict claimed a toll of 9 human lives yesterday. At Walsenburg, Colo., yesterday one per son was killed and three were wound ed in a 6-hour battle in which less than 100 militiamen attempted to dis lodge an estimated force of 400 strik ers entrenched in the hills adjacent to the town.

After having been out less than two hours the jury mthe case of Clyde C, Clement and Miss Laura F. Pendle ton, who have been on trial here dur ing the past week for the drowning of a baby, tonight found Clemenjt guilty of murder and Miss Pendleton not guilty. Clement was recommend ed to mercy, which means under the South Carolina procedure, that he will be sentenced to life imprisonment. The baby alleged to have been the daughter of the two defendants was found in a mill pond January 31. Each of the defendants accused the other of having thrown the child into the pond the night before, from a bridge. They admitted having gone to the bridge together, with the baby, but each professed ignorance of the other's intentions. Miss Pendleton's testimony differed somewhat from an alleged confession made by her after her arrest, in which she was quoted as saying that she unwillingly consented to the death of the baby after Clement had promised i. i iu many ner n sne acquiescfeu ana threatened to abandon her if she i thwarted his design Sunday School Picnic Tomorrow. As was mentioned in Monday's Rob esonian, the First Baptist Sunday school will picnic tomorrow.

This is one of the most wideawake Sunday schools in North Carolina. The number enrolled in the school is 636. Mr. R. D. Caldwell has been superintendent for more than 20 yeaYs and has been elect ed for life. Many of th members of the 'Other schools in town have been invited, but owing to the fact that there are more than 1400 white Sun day school members in Lumberton it is impossible to entertain all- the schools.

Correspondence of The Robesonian. Shannon, April 29 There was a little excitement around the postoffice here on Monday morning, the 27th, inst. when Walter Gilchrist, colored, was arrested on the charge of forg in a check on Mr. G. C. Biggs. It seems that Gilchrist sent in the check a few days ago and requested it to be cashed and the mony sent to Mr. G. C. Biggs at this omce. The check created some suspicion, so a letter was sent as requested but minus the money and the postmaster at this place was notified to be on the lookout and to have the party who called for the letter arrested if he did not have satisfactory evidence that he was G. C. Biggs. The negro called for the letter and claimed to be Biggs, where upon he was arrested and taken to Red Springs, where he was tried in the recorder's court and sentenced to 18 months on the roads. He was taken the same day by Rural Policeman Lindsay and placed in the convict camp now situated on the road be tween Red Springs and Lumberton. Messrs. G. I. Klarpp, John Wal ters and J. E.
