Assertion of 42,000 People
For. Textile City

Gaatonla. May Alfred O. Lloyd,
tha Ueneral Secretary of ths Gaatonla
Chamber of Commerce, haa takea ex
ceptlons to the report of the Wash
ington correspondent of th Charlotte
Observer oa th cnsua flgur for tha
towns of North Carolina. Inasmuch aa
Oastonla was not Included In a list of
ths towns of 1,004 or over furnished
the Observer a few day ago and Is
endeavoring to hav Oastonla placed
o nth map where ah oolong.
Tha Charlotte Obeervar hag also
taken exceptions to Secretary Lloyd's
desire to give Gaatonla th population
th city possesses, and In an editorial
Saturday, eald "Mr. Alfred Lloyd, gen.
era! secretary,'' sends th Observer
copy of a letter he baa written to Mr,
Bryant, th Washington correspond
nt of this paper concerning th ng
urea sent out aooai tno oeusua tie
. . . . .
tells Mr. Bryant: 'Tou hav overlook
ed th fact that Gaatonla has aver tl.
00 population, or th censue bureau
may be at fault and not hav th In
formation.' It Is always a ticklish
business to question the figures of th
census bureau. Mr. Uoyd has a dis
appointment coming to him. - By th
census of 1110. ths population of Gaa
tonla was (.711. If It now has over
lt.000. then It has mad perhaps th
moat phenomenal growth of any town
In the whole country. Mr. Lloyd's
enthusiasm challenges admiration, but
wants to be careful how he bocks
against ths census bureau and th
Observer's correspondent"
In an Interview following th publi
cation of this editorial Secretary Lloyd
Informed your correspondent that h
still claims th 11,000 population for
Oastonla and Is prepared to back up
th claim with flgur or tab a cen
sus of th city to substantial th
claim. While no action baa been tak
ea by Mr, Uoyd In producing th fig
ures. It is not unlikely that Oastonla
will be belittled and th population
placed lower than It ta la reality.
Th Chamber of Commerce Is
deavorlag to locate a new anterprlee,
but no Information haa been given
eut by th organisation as to th kind
of manufigturlng plant it is. how

held over th matter, and It Is likely
that some definite Information will be

,' I ay u
Washington, D. C.. May I. Ta
mediation plan of th South Ameri
can envoy who ar trying to' straight
a eat the troubled affairs of MesJeo.
went steadily forward today, and
while there war ao formal sessions
the mediators conferred during ta af
ternoon ana evening oa what haet
been doaa and th nest step la their
proceaura.
The Ualted Slates, th Huerta gov-
ernment and General -Carranaa ar
expected to nam their delegate a
request ea by the mediators last night
within tha nsxt day ee two. Th dele
gates ror ma united mates hav not
yet been selected, but It became
known today" that It would aot b on
ot th offlelala clgeeiy ideal 1 fled with
th government As th three South
American envoys ar accredited to tho
uniteo mate, this government doea
not wish to name a government of
ficial to deal with them, but to hava
aa outsider who would, deal with
them without reference to their of
ficial relations to th United State.
Dearamic Yet I'akaowav .
This haa eliminated Hobert L. Lans
ing, Counselor of th State Depart
ment and in general all other gov
ernment officials. To tha name of
John Baawttt Moor, John Lind and
Unry White, already mentioned, ar
now added those ot Richard Oloey,
former Secretary o( State, Dr. David
J a' a H1U, former- nmlnnxliir to
Germany, and Hannla Taylor, former
Minister to Spain. Th Huerta dele
gate is expected t be Frandaco IM
la Harra. now Mexican Minister at
Paris, but nothing definite has been
heard from Mexico city. Rafael
Zubaran. personal representative of
General Carranaa. arrived her yeeter-
oay ana. is available as th carranaa
delegate although' his particular
mission In coming from Carranaa la
stilt to be ahnounoed . and U is aot
yet definite that Carranaa will go to
tho extent of naming -a delegate ta
deal with th medlatora .
Saocee Still Ia Doubt.
When th delegate- of th tore
partle arrlv. - It I expected th
mediators win be ready to take up
th a-ructa! Issues between the L'nlted
States and Huerta, at least, and if
possible between Huerta and Car
ranaa. Whether a plaa of adjustment
can be worked out la still an open
question, sven la th minds of tha
mediators. They expect the dele
gates from ths three parties to assist
thera to get together on some mlddl
ground. Th mediator will contlnu
to be tha main body formulating
plaa of settlement as the delegate
from th three parties will hav no
plenipotentiary powers and will act
merely as adviser.
Carranaa To Keep Oa Fighting.
It became definitely established to
day that General Carranaa would not
agree to th request of the medlatora
that he suspend military operations
against Huerta pending th mediation
proceedings and II
advised of this decision. It haa been
apparent for several days that Car
ransa intended to puah his army
southward, but It was not until th
tost twenty-four hours this was com
municated aa a. finality. - It is said this
will hav no effect on checking the
general plan of mediation, which will
go steadily rorward. -Haorta
and Carranaa Wont Settle.
Cloee associates or Carranaa who
hava now arrived here say that no
mediation bstweea' them and Huerta
Is posstbl and that any move on th
part of tha three medlatora to Includ
In their progress a srbm tor th
general adjustmsnt of Mexican affair
will be regarded as being outsld th
scop ef their labors.
Meanwhile th campaign against tha
Huerta forces In th north la proceed
ing full fore, th mediation work
not being considered by tha-.Constl-tutionaliats
aa having any bearing oa
tha relations between Huerta and
themselves. The march on Mexico
City, according to thoee near Car-
ranta, la to be undertaken as soon as
military operations la tha north will
permit. r
Carransa's refusal of an armistice
between him and Huerta Is the first
adverse reply the mediators hav re
ceived. On th other hand favorable
orament la mad In circle cloee to
th envoys upon, th amenability Ku
rta has snown.
May Cbooae Keatral Point,
Asld from tbe personnel ef th
delegate from the three parties to
ths controversy, the mediators hava
atsen some Informal consideration aa
to whether It may become daalrabla to
go to some neutral point outsld of
Washington to carry . forward their
negotiations with the throe partle
concerned. Tn only purpoee in this
would be to forestall tb feeling on
th part of any ens of ths parties
that their session at tn al ef gov
ernment hero mlaht tend to a leaning
toward their viewpoint of the United
State, th desire beli.g to make their
deliberation .aa detached aad bide
nendent aa nosatbl. This haa led ta
informal suggestions that -Havana or
possibly some border point In Canada
be selected as a Plac of meeting.
Havana flrtll - not be -chosen,' however,
owing" to the ' heat and tho number
of Mexican refugees there, while
Canada, being a British Colony, might
