The President still is Iiopeful that media tion will bring about peace and he be lieves it already has accomplished much good. He takes the view, it was said that mediation has greatly in creased good feeling between the Unit ed States ind all Iatin American coun tries and has shown that the United States never had any intention of at- tacking .Mexico, with, the idea of ter ritorial aggrandizement.

Williamson, W. Va., July 1 With ! little hope of their rescue, five miners are imprisoned in a burning shaft of sycamore mine No. 1, near here. The imprisoned constitute the night force unable to escape when the mine caught fire shortly before midnight. Efforts to reach the men have been futile. The mine is burning fiercely and a dense smoke issuing, and miners say there is little chance to rescue the imprisoned men. Defective electric wiring is believed to be the cause Rescuers began today digging a shaft into the mine in hope of effecting a rescue. The entombed miners, George Sei- bolcr, James Collins, Benjamin James, Henry Lyons and Marion Lyons, were believed by a mine inspector to be in a part of the mine not yet touched by the fire. He said they probably had been cut off by flames and had taken refuge in a chamber a thousand feet from the mouth. If theyi could live during the day there was some hope of saving them, experienced miners declare. " " - ' . A hose was run into the main entry and water was kept playing on the flames while seventy-five miners were detailed for the work of excavating a new shaft. A hundred men Usually are at work in the mine during the night, but many of them did not re port last night. Rescue Crew On Way. Pittsburgh, Pa.," July 1 A rescue crew of six men, in charge of H. D Mason, a mining engiaeer left the Bu reau of Mines Station this morning for Williamson to assist in the rescue of the Sycamore Miners. It was be lieved they would reach the mine in time to be of service. LIQUOR BANISHED FROM THE NAVY Washington, July 1 The famous or der issued 5by Secretary Daniels last April banishing all intoxicating liquors from the United States navy went Into effect today. The order reads: "The use or introduction for drinking pur poses of alcoholic liquors on board any naval vessel, or within any yard or station, is strictly prohibited and commanding officers will be held di rectly responsible for the enforcement of this order." The anti-canteen laws for the army, passed by Congress after a severe nd prolonged battle of the temperan'ca forces of the country, are less sweep ing than the prohibition which has now been put into effect in the navy. The order of Secretary Daniels abol ishes the officers' wine mess and ab solutely forbids the "use or introduc tion" of alcoholic liquors. In the army prohibition is restricted to "the saltj.of, of, or dealing in" intoxicating liquors. Army officers uncter this law may maintain a wise mess at their clubs. London, July 1 Sir Thomas Skin ner presided this evening at the cus tomary dinner given in-trelebration of Dominion Bay. Among the notables in attendance were Prince Alexander of Teck; who is soon to become Governor-General of Canada; Lewis Har- court, the Colonial Secretary, and George H.
