I jSj , MEXICO CITY, Aug. J2. The first
I lUl skirmish in the diplomatic war between
I rnH Mexico find the United Sratos took
F jjfli' placo today, and was wou by JbTin
f Ml) Lind, President Wilson's personal rop-
j Iff jj rcsentativc, when he managed to bo' re-
! sf IS reived unofficially 1)3 Foreign Minister
18 II v'rednrico Oambon. 13otli Mr. Lind and
SenVX' Gamboa insist that no great im-
jijf porloVc attached to the visit. The
u jjt Mcxicai? government is still insistent
i ! tlint it v.'i'l ot deal with Mr. Lind offi-
m jl cially nor listen to any suggestions
il If from him aa to mediation or to any
BjU proposal emanating from his govern-
Wt merit.
JIk Mr. Lind was -presented to Sonor
jj Gamboa by Nelson O'Shaughnessy,
Jgjj charge d'affaires of the American cm-
w bassy, in the character pf a private
Mr citizen. The conversation between the
Mexican cabinet ollicer and fvJ. Lind
H was entirely informal, both oavcfully
S avoiding the subject of politics 01 tho
i mibsiou which is pcreonaJly entrusted
M to Mr. Lind by President "Wilson.
S. Visit Is Short.
9 S The vibit of Mr. Lind consumed but
) It a few minutes of Senor Gamboa s time,
'If j' and few persons know that it had boon
Jj made. Tho lime selected for the call
;H I was when few visitors were at tho
m, foreign office, and a disposition was
shown in the department to cloak it
Ulif source v.
j jl No further steps -were taken by "Mr.
Lind today to advance, tho object of
' his mission to Mexico, and it is bc-
Ki( lieved that there will be little dove-lop-
Mm inent in the situation before Thursday.
II, Mr. Lind is in communication with
flHg Washington, and it is not improbable
Imtl tna n's luovemcnts will be governed
J! Jo: by instructions from there, based ou
jJM, . the progress he is able to make here.
In vTew of the tone of Huorta's note
JljSfc last week issued through the charge
ml here, that Mr. Lind would not bo ro-
jlBi 1 coived official ly unloss he brought cre-
-wlV dcntials. and 'also oflicial recognitinn
01 j of the Hucrta governnieiit, great sig-
CyJ; nificancc attaches to his reception by
llncrta' cabinet chic1", even unofli-
nj , ciall.v. Bv some persons his reception
IOtJ' 's tken :is 1111 indication of the dispo-
fljjj sition of President Huerta to leani the
ffljs character of tho message Mr. Lind
9Np- bears. Officials, high and low, persist
my, in flaying that President Huerta will
mil never receive Mr. Lind. especially as
ljji- President Wilson's emissary, hut there
is an unconfirmed rumor in circulation
mi that steps iilrcafty have been taken to
lut1 i bring about a conference bctwoou
Iff. them.
j j ; It ip the opinion of Mexicans gen-
jjj crallv that even if President Hnerta
Inl should receive Mr, Lind it would bo
dnl ' 1 morel v to show hin a personal courtesy,
'yj; and would not alter the stand tho
jj In NTevinin executive has taken in regard
(J, , to foreign interference in the republic,
ulji i rt is nointnd out also that even should
JjjL : President Huerta be disposed to listen
nit; ' to suggestions there remains the rcbel-
, lion as n bar to the restoronicut of
,Kj! i peace. Rebel sympathizers in the capi-
h . fnl, and even pro-government men, Hay

j mil mediation than is the administra-
m ! Washington Encouraged.
M j W AS 1 1 1 NGTOX, A u g. 1 2. News from
nil! ' Mexico City that .John Lind, personal
JUP I representative of President Wilson, and
Eli' Fredcrico Gamboa, Mexican minister of
ulfl foreign relations, had established un-
jfjSi oflicial relations today by a personal
h'h meeting, brought encouragement to ad-
Slf I'Muitiation officials here. Tt was felt
mil ! ')V ,n0IM n;,t tnc first SCP 'n the pro
trau nie of the American government to
throw its influence in the direction of n
j; quiet and jieaccful settlement of the
tjp revolutionary troubles had succeeded.
'Ili! The incident, however, it was learned,

It f , transmit them in accordance with diplo
(j mnt'p proprieties to tho Mexican minis-
II ' tor of foreign relations,
j The meelinc of Mr. Lind nnd Minis
all I ter Gamboa, however, was looked upon
'M I officiate here as the beginning of
,r SB frank. though unofficial relations,
'ffl;! through which the Mexican government
JjJl might bo informally and the more fully
g 1 acquainted with the ideas of tho Wash
B j iitgton administration. It has been left
mi entirely to Mr. Liud's discretion upon
ill ' whom to call. While there is nothing
j If in Mr. Lind's instructions which would
ft present him from calling-on Provision
aljl a I President Huerta, it not regarded
Wf that he would do so unless the latter
jJf had indicnted hjs desire to receive the
HI j uuoflicial envo3',
i I International Aspects.
, It Certain international aspects of the
situation here gave added interest to
wf Mr. Lind's mission in Mexico. It he-
: m came known that Japan, which had
Hf hitherto recognized the Hnerta govern-
Ql meat had practically decided not to re-
mn ceivo General Felix Diaz, special embas-
Jfflj i sador to expross thanks for the partici-
Ifil . patlon by Japan in Mexico's centennial
fflR a vcarB aeo. Likewise tho state-
WlA ment of the British government explain-

SIX SHOT IN RIOT -AT
I. W. W. MEETING
fOontlnued from Pago One.)
of tho last chorus the speaker, Morgan,
wan Introduced. The chorus of tho 3ong
went Homothlnk like thlsi
Oh, Mr. Blockhead,
Ton wore horn by miss take.
You take the cake,
You make mo ache.
Tie a rock to your neck
Ami go Jump In the lake.
Do this for liberty's sake.
The words were sung to the tune of
"It Looks JLlko a Big Night Tonight."
The men who had planned to stop the
mealing stood by and undor their breath
sang the real words to tho tune. Thoy
knew that the real words were the more
significant.
Speaker Derides Steele.
After tho speaker had taken tho plat
form he said:
"There Is one man that Is missing In
this crowd. Ho Is tho one man whom I
would like to take by the neck and hug."
The words were said sarcastically and
Axel Steele muttered that Morgan would
soon get tho opportunity to "hug."
When the speaker mentioned the "so
called American government, " Steele
strode to the center of the crowd and
ripping the I. W. -W. banner from Its
mooring unfurled the American flag. Ho
swung a blow for Morgan, but ono of the
band In tho rear hit first. Morgan was
unceremoniously dragged from Ills posi
tion to bo mot by Bcveral blows on the
face.
Fight Starts; Shots Fired.
The figlti had' started. The crowd
surged and Axol Steele's men battled as
comrades of old. Scarcely ten seconds
had elapsed until tho shooting began.
Then tho crowd mado a rush for places
of safety. Among the few left wore seen
thQ Injured. The wieldcr of tho revolvor
fired live shots. FA-ery shot took effoct
and one shot must have hit two men.
Axel Steele was a consplouous figure.
After tihe trouble ho walked up nnd down
through tho crowd, asking If thoro was
anyonu else who wanted to shoot n citi
zen or say anything against the Ameri
can flag. Nobody Interrupted him and
he made no effort to excite trouble.
Tho gun that Murphy dropped In try
ing to escape wns picked up hy Bernard
Rich, 21 East Second South street. He
dodged Into his placo of business, al
though several tried to get the gun from
him, nnd locked tho door. Later ho de
livered tho gun to Motorcycle Patrolman
W. H. Hendrickson. who took it to po
lice headquarters. The gun evidently had
Just been fired five tlme.
T. D. Price, who first Intercepted tho
rtcelng man, gavo the following acoount
of tho affair:
I was standing near when the
speaicor waw pulled down from the
box and, when the shooting started,
It seemed that every time the fellow
aimed at me. Only ono bullet found
mo and I didn't know that I was hit
until I (had Murphy In tho saloon.
1 rushed at him ana followed him as
bo ran Ho dodged Into Mulvoy's sa
loon with me right behind' him and
Just after he got through the second
swinging door I clinched with him
and succeeded in holding him until
Patrolman Wire came.
Finger Shot.
When the excitement started I toad
a revolver In my pocket, but no shells
and I lost It In the scrap. I "eroaked"
the gun about two weoks ago and
bad Just got It and of course when
the pawnbroker gave It back to mo
lie didn't glvo mo any ammunition
and I had nbne. I suppose I lost the
gun when running across the street, .
but I didn't miss it or notice Hint tho
ond of my finger was ehot off until
after I had Murphy.
Judge .T. B. Wilklns. a lawyor, was one
of tho few arrested during tho riot who
succeeded in being roloosed. "When the
Judgo was taken before the police cap
tain the latter admitted that the arrest
ing patrolman had been haety and told
the attorney he could go.
Says City Is Liable.
.According to tho Judge, tho city laid
Its-elf llablo for damages by turning tho
fire hose on persons standing on the
sidewalk, as such an act Is a legal as
sault. Speaking of bis arrest, ho said.
In company with Roy Barrett and
A. "West. I wns utandlng on tho
south side of Second South street.
Just east of the "Wilson hotel, watch
ing thr excitement, I never dreamed
that the firemen would turn the
hone that way. They started it to
ward us and at the same time a
policeman grasped mo roughly by
the shoulder and started shoving me.
As I was not in the street I resented
this and told him so. Then another
policeman, Motorcycle Officer W. 7T.
Hendrickson, stepped up and placed
me under arrest. "When he learned
that 1 was not an I. W. W1., he
wanted to release me, but I Insisted
upon being taken to Jail.
At tho station Hendrickson explained
that the first patrolman had undoubtedly
been hasty and that a hasty remark from
"Wilklns caused him to make the ar
rest. "Wllkins was released.
In tho excitement sevoral other Inno
cent persons wero taken into custody, but
were released as soon as the policemen
found they wero not disturbers. Mem
bers of the police departmont suffered
speoch to President Huorta, enoouraged
administration officials to believe that
tho foreign powers would givo their
moral support to tho efforts of Presi
dent "Wilson through, constitutional pro
cesses to influonco tho restoration, of
peace in Mexico,
The administration Las decided to
keep foreign governments fully in
formed as to various steps taken, nnd
while Mr. Lind talked with Minister
Gamboa today it is not considered
likely that tho note expressing the
view of tho United States government
will be presented' for several days, eith
er to the Huerta government or to for
eign nations.
Two Vessels Started.
Within the last forty-eight hours tho
navy department has started two light
draft vessels for Vera Cruz to aid in
the work of picking up Americans
along the east coast of Mexico desiring
to return home. Tho nav- now has on
the eastern Mexican coast tho battle

Huerta Denies Rumor.
PARIS. Aug. 12. Tho Matin having
cnbled Presidont Hnerta that some anx
iety had been caused by dispatches re
coivod hero concerning tho relations
between tho United States and Mexico,
has received tho following message
from Mexico City:
"Anxiety ovef tho relations- of Mex
ico with the United Stntoi? aro without
foundation. V. ITUEItTA."
about as much from the water as did oth-
era nnd there was many a wet uniform
at the station. .
About half an hour after the cxclto
ment had stnrted, as a reporter was
rushing through an alley leading from
Commercial street about half a block
from tho scene of the trouble, he stum
bled over what appeared to be the pros
trato body of a man. Visions of a
wounded man crawling away to die
flashed through his mind as he fumbled
for some matches.
Just then a swamper came from n
nearby saloon, and togethor they lifted
tho man to aslttlng position and held
him thr until they could look him over
with the light of the matches.
"Ilo seems all right," said thn re
porter. "Yes, only he is intoxicated," answered
tho experienced swamper, as he shook
the man vigorously.
"Don't you know there has boon shoot
ing here?" tho drowsy man was asked,
and the question seemed to sober him In
stantly. Glancing hastily around, bo asked If
ho was to bo shot.
"No," was the answer, "but thcro was
some shooting down the street a minute
ago." The half Intoxicated man turned
on his companions with a look of con
tempt. "Didn't I know they wero shooting?"
ho cried. "I was right thero when the
shooting started and I got under covor.
They weren't going to got ".Tack" Kelly
If ho could got away. And then I guess T
went to sleep whon I lay down."
Laws on Rioting.
The state laws mako a specific pro
vision In reference to rioting, dcllnlng a
riot as follows In section -1801, chapter 3G:
Any use of force or violence, dis
turbing the public peace or any threat
to use such forco or vlolonce If ac
companied by Immediate power of
execution by two or more persons
acting together and without author
ity of Jaw. is a riot.
The penalty for engaging In a riot is
not moro than two years In tho state
prison or a line of $1000, or both.
Tho oct of Inciting a riot Is given by
both thn state law and city ordinance as
rout. Remaining at the scene of a. riot
after having been ordered to disperse
and the act of making threats or incit
ing riot are both classed as misdemean
ors. The city ordinances contain a section
prohibiting speechmaklng to which there
is an excoptlon. The section is as fol
lows: Ordinance No. 1205.
Speechmaklng on streets pro
hibited Exception:
It shall bo unlawful for any per
son to hold, conduct or address any
assemblage, mooting or gathering of
persons or to mako or deliver any
public speech, sermon, lecture or dis
cussion or to conduct or take part
In any publlo debate or discussion In
or . upon any public street or allov
within tho city of Salt Lake, except
such persons shall have first obtained
a permit In writing so to do from the
board of commissioners.
Banner Disappears.
The stand on whioh Morgan was speak
ing when the riot was started was taken
to tho police Btation where It will be
held as ono of tho exhibits In the case.
The banner ueod by tho organization dis
appeared In tho excitement.
At St. Mark's hospital at an eailv
hour this morning It was reported that
Clifford's wounds had boon dressed by Di
ll. IB. Sprague, assistant city physician,
and that tho man was resting easily with
an excellent chanco for recovery pro
vided no complications occur latar, al
though amputation of his left leg may bo
noeessary.
The eceno at the pollco station during
tho riot and after tho wounded had been
brought to tho emeigcncy hospital has
probably never before boon equaled. Drs.
Samuel G. Paul, H. B. Sprague and R.
w. Ashley of tho city health department
wore In their shirt sleeves attending to
tho wounded. Patrolmen acted as aides.
Seated on the bperating table In the
center of the Bmall room was Morgan,
the I. W. W loader. While his head was
being dressed and with blood flowing
down his checks and onto his nock he
graphically described tho riot in his own
way.
Blames Steele.
'Steele Is tho cause of It all," he
shouted. "ITo jsiJd ihc would mako me
quit speaking and break up tho meeting
and he has done fio. Ilo was tho cause
jbf the shooting and tho blame for the
wholo thing."
Ovor and ovor ho repeated the forego
ing statement. One of the doctors aBked
him to lie down while his scalo was being
sewed together. Morgan loolccd around.
"Has everyone elao been attended to,"'
he said. "My head hurts, but theso other
follows should be given attention first."
Dr Paul was among the first of the
city physicians to arrive at tho station.
Whon tho riot started Dr. Paul was down
town and attracted: by tho noise. Shoot
ing on a downtown street usually means
work at the police station, so the phy
sician figured, and he Etarted for head
quarters, going east on Second South to
ward tho scene of the trouble
Tho first thing he saw was bloody
tracks on the sidewalk. And tho doctor
followed tho tracks. They wore those
of Schottl, Uhe man who hod boon shot
through the fleshy part of tho right leg.
Schottl never waited for the police am
bulance to arrive, but walked all the way
to the station. And Dr. Paul followed and
trailed him to tho emergency hospital.
Schottl was the first of tho wounded to
arrive and Dr. Paul was tho first of the
physicians. And Schottl was tho first of
the Injured to havp his wounds dressed.

EORJRIRS
Insurgent Democrats Want
Warehouse Receipts Used
for Credit in Federal
Reserve Banks.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 12. Tho fight of
so-called "Insurgent" Democrats to broad
en the power of farmers and cotton ralsors
to use warehouse receipts as eecurlty for
credit with tho proposed federal reserve
banks, dominated today's caucus of the
Democratic members of tho Iioubo ovor tho
Glass curroncy bill.
Representatives Neeloy of Kansas, Win
go of Arkansas and Eagle of Texas, all
advocates of tho proposed extension of
agricultural credits. held tho floor
throughout the day, with frequent Inter
ruptions by Representative Gloss and oth
er supporters of the administration meas
ures. Tho "Insurgent" forces claimed to
night to have secured some added strength
during tho day.
Defends Measure.
Chairman Glass again defended tho bill
on the ground that It gave tho farmer
amplo power to use his warehouse re
ceipts as security for redlscountablo
notes, provided ho wanted money for bona
fide agricultural operatlona. The amend
ment demanded by the "Insurgents" would
mako warehouse receipts spoclflcally le
gal as security for redlscountablo loans;
and the administration forces Insisted that
such amendments would lead to wide
spread speculation and that tho ware
house receipts would pass Into the banda
of a few big spooulators, who would dom
inate the wheat, corn and cotton markets
and manipulate prices.
A vote on tho bill Is not expected bo
fore tho end of tho wock. Echoes of tho
houso "monoy trust" investigation wero
heard throughout tho day. Representa
tives Nocley and Wingo used tho les
sons of the money trust Inquiry to sup
port tholr demand for amendments to pro
vent Interlocking boards of directors and
Interlocking Etockholdors In national
banks.
Notification Issued.
Republican Leader Mann has notified
all absent Republican representatives to
return to Washington by August 15 with
a view to being prepared for tho intro
duction of the- administration currency
bill In tho house and to attend a Joint
Republican caucus. Many members have
been away for weeks, whllo the house
Is marking time pending the sonato con
sideration of the tariff and the framing
of .tho currency bill In tho houso. There
will be a Joint caucus of Republicans of
both tho senate and tho houso as soon
as the now absent members are gathered
again at the cnpltol, to tieloCt members
of tho Republican congressional commit
too for the coming campaign.
SOCIALISM 10 II
D1CES1 SCORED
MILWAUKEE, Wis.. Aug. 12. Social
ism, Immoral dancos, anti-Catholic press
reports and tho action of mine owners
In Lead, S. D., were scored today In tho
adoption of resolutions during the after
noon session of tho American Federation
of Catholic Societies.
Delegates representing tho 3,000,000
Catholic members of tho various socie
ties voted unanimously to telegraph Mrs.
Phoebo A. Hearst of Pleasanlon, Cab,
mother of William Randolph Hearst, as
chief owner of certain mining properly
In Lead; to wire J. B. Ilaggln of New
York, as president of the samo. and to
F. J. Gucr of Lead, superintendent, em
phatically protesting against the ab
normal conditions In Lead, which, tho
federation claims, Impedes tho work of
religion and has caused Bishop Joseph
F. Buseh to be exiled from the see city
of bis diocese-
Every suggestion by tho various resolu
tions committee was adopted without pro
test until a committee recommended "the
good work of publications llko the Com
mon Cause, Live Issue, Central Blatt
and Social Justice, published In the In
terest of true social reform."
Tho mention of these papers brought
down a scoro of objections from tho pub
lishers, editors and friends of various
other periodicals. After a spirited debate
of nearly an hour the resolution sug
gested was adopted by a narrow mar
gin. The convention decided to petition
tho president nnd congress, asking that
the United States make a. vigorous pro
test against the despoliation of the
church properties In Portugal, a subject
which, was brought to tho attention of
the convention by tho Rev. Joseph Hus
sleln, S. J.. of New York city.
The growth of the . Catholic education
system and tho high school Idea wero
approved.
An appeal for stato aid of Catholic
schools was voiced In tho resolutions, as
was tho a'dmittanco of Catholic books
and literature In public libraries. Eu
genics, or sex hygiene, and tho idea of
centralization of educational agencies
wero discouraged.
The formation of a national Catholic
Womon's league, after a strenuous cam
paign of two years, after receiving tho
hearty approval of Archbishop Meosmer of
Milwaukee and after almost being a re
ality, was given a sudden blow today
when It was decided behind closed doors
that the women should not form a
lengue but remain mourners of tho Amer
ican Federation of Catholic Societies, a
federation which Included men and wom
en. Archbishop Messmer's decree that
woman suffrage must not be discussed
In the meetings Is said to bo tho chief
reason for the split in tho movement
of the women. A majority of- tho dele
gates to the meeting are reported to
have been In favor of tho woman suf
frage and did not look kindly upon the
dictation of Archbishop Mcssmer that
suffrage be excluded from the league de
ba tes.

MRS. SULZER TAKES
Bill FOR TROUBLE
(Continued from Pago Ono.)
that the prooeedlngs wore out of order
under section 1 of tho constitution. The
point was overruled by the chair.
"Nobody Is crucifying William Sulzer,"
shouted Assemblyman "Cuvllller, the next
speaker. "Ho has crucified himself. If
he wero Impeached he would not daro
go on tho witness stand. We don't want
to impeach Sulzor. Wo should much pro
for that he come beforo the bar of his
houso and explain theso chargos away
but ho can't."
To this Assomblyman Glbbs retorted:
"Let not those men who have prepared
to sacrifice William Sulzer for their own
advantago put, on a cloak of hypocrisy
and shed crocodile tears. Everybody
knows that the reason that Sulzer is be
ing demanded as a victim Is that ho bail
tho manhood to refuse to bo tied to tho
wheels of a certain political chariot."
Question Legality.
Mr. Glbbs added that In the history of
American government no public official
bod been Impeached for offenses commit
ted prior to his taking public office
"Why impeach tho governor If ho has
committed a crime?" he asked. "Are
not our courts sufficient to deal with
such a matter. T assert that If the gov
ernor had been guilty of murder prior to
his taking office he could not bo 'Im
peached therefor.
"You may control tho legislature for a
few years. Legislators conic and go, but
tho people are always with us. It will
all como but why tho Democratic organi
zation In New York has put Itself back
of this affair. The men who are trying
to drivo the governor out of office arc

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12. Sonator Kern
declined to glvo any opinion tonight as
to Mr. Clayton's eligibility to the senate.

DIAZ NOT TO SAIL
FOR JAPAN TODAY
VAJNCOUVETR, B. C, Aug. 12. General
Felix Diaz will not sail tomorrow bv the
Empress of Russia for Japan. Instead,
he will, with his party, tour Quebec Lon
don, Paris, Berlin. Vienna and St' Pet
ersburg, and reach Japan by tho trans
Siberian railway.
As an explanation tho Mexican special
envoy says that owing to telegraphic
Instructions from Mexico City ho had
been forced to change his plans. Ho will
leave for Quebec on the Canadalan Pa
cific railroad Imperial limited tomorrow.
"You must not suppose that our change
of plans has anything whatever to do with
the press dispatches from Toklo to the
effoct that tho government of Japan had
refused to recognize our mission t-ave
that as Individuals," said General Diaz
"Wo aro acting on direct instructions
from Mexico City and these aro that
we go to Quebec Instead of Yokohama,
and then proceed to London, Paris Ber
lin, Vienna and St. Petersburg, reaching
Japan by the trans-Siberian railway."
SCHOOL CENSUS LESS
INSTEAD OF GREATER
That an actual loss occurred in the
school population of Salt Lako Citv
during the last year was discovered b"
tho board of education last night when
tho reports on tho annual census re
cently completed were presented.
The reports show a not increase in
the city of 386 children, an unusually
light increase as compared to that of
othor years, but whon it is figured that
the addition of ForeBt Dale to tho city
proper this year added moro than 500
children to the school population it is
apparent that instead of a gain there I
was an actual loss of nearly 150 in the '
city proper, exclusive of tho newf
suburb.
f J"-.' f faot ,that tho census
oosh?MSd a nefc -'ain of more
JanA3,9 children ovor that of 1913
the falling off in this year's census
camo as an astounding sGrpriso to the
board mombora, who aro absolutely 4t
a loss to account for the decrease. 7 1 ,
