Urge Representatives of
tluerta to Yield
FOR A PEACEFUL SETTLEMENT
'ludlow Affair Too Horrible to Print," is the
Statement of Judge Undsey, Now En
route to Confer With President
(Special to the Evening Review).
' WASHINGTON, May 19. The
American envoys' mediation confer
ence today loft for Niagara Falls. It
is expected a week will be necessary
to decide whether there is a chance
of a peaceful settlement of the
Amerlcan-.Mexicnn troubles. The
mediators, it Is understood, sympa
thize with the Washington adminis
tration in a general way. It Is ex
pected they will urge the Huerta
representatives to yield. Members
of tbe constitutionalist Junta here
are Inclined to be defiant. In the
quarrel with the United States they
had no sympathy fbr Huerta but ap
peared to consider It no occasion
for tlie faction's representation at
any arbitration negotiations, since
the rebels intend to arbitrate noth
ing but gain control of the Mexican
government and run It as' they see
fit. However, there are still reportB
that In the end Carranza will Bend
representatives to Niagara Falls.
"TOO IIOltltllll.H TO PRINT." .
CHICAGO, May 19. "A true
story of what happened at Ludlow is
loo horrible to print," said Judge
Undsey, enrouto to Washington, ac
companied by Mrs. Pearl Jolly, Mrs.
.Mary Petruccl and Mrs. N. Thomas,
l.udlow survivors. "The details of
the l.udlow affair are almost unbe
lievable," said I.lndsey. "It is equal
ed only In stories of the sacking of
Home, pillaging of Carthage, and the
Inhumanities of the Balkan war.
Colorado is sitting on the edge of a
volcano. If the Federal troopB are
withdrawn thore will be a war of
reprisal too horrible to contemplate.
We are going to Washington to beg
the President not to withdraw tho
troopB."

last Sunday with the warrant.

said he has prepared for a resistance

Harness, according to the story
brought here late yesterday, recently
induced a Mr. Much, of California,
whom he met iu Criinls I'asH, to pur
chase an outfit of provisions and Blip

stay lu the mountains. He promised
to take Huch to a valuable mine,
which they would work together and
share alike In Us earnings. Once at

above Tiller, Harness took charge,
and at tbe cabin where they made
their headquarters forced Hach to
sleep on the porch and to come
around to the back of the house to
get tiis meals. Harness controlled
the provisions, worth about $100,
and kept his companion al a distance
with a gun, hoping he would leave.
Kuril did leave and hunted up
Officer Hopkins, after securing a
warrant for arrest, and the latter
left Sunday with a horse on which
to bring back his prisoner, for the
fortified cabin. It. is said Harness
is waiting with his gun to nteot the
offilTci-r. Hopkins on leaving t'au
