Property Damage in Dublin
Estimated at $2,000,000.
Railways Are Held.
KINGSTOWN, Ireland, April 30,
via London, May 1. The main body
of the Sinn Fein rebels in Dublin sur
rendered in the course of the day.
There was, however, considerable
fighting throughout Sunday in Dublin
and the suburbs. It -yas especially se
vere at Balls Bridge outside Dublin.
The rebels in the College of Sur
geons surrendered this morning. One
of the prisoners taken here was the
Countess Markievicz.
LONDON, April 30. An official
statement issued tonight regarding
the rebellion in Ireland says:
"The rebels are surrendering freely.
The back of the rebellion has been
broken.
"Messengers have been sent from
the leaders of the Dublin rebels to
other rebels in Galway, Clare, Wex
ford, Louth and Dublin counties order
ing them to surrender."
Another official statement says:
"Seven hundred and seven prison
ers have been taken at Dublin, includ
ing the Countess Markiewicz."
Rebels Continue Resistance.
"The situation in Dublin has im
proved considerably today, but the
rebels still were offering serious re
eistance in the neighborhood of Sack
ville street," said a statement issued
by the Field Marshal Viscount French
at 11:30 o'clock last night. "The cor
don of troops encircling this quarter.
however, was steadily closing in, but
house-to-house fighting necessarily
rendered progress slow.
"The postoffice and the block of
buildings east of Sackville street have
been destroyed by fire. A party of
rebels has been driven out of Boland's
mills in Ring's End by guns mounted
. on motor lorries.
Wounded Leader Surrenders.
"One oi the rebels' leaders, a man
named Pearse, is reported wounded in
the leg. A report received tonight said
that Pearse had surrendered uncondi
tionally and that he asserted he had
been authorized to accept the same
terms of surrender for his followers
in Dublin.
"The Four Courts' district, which
still is held by rebels, is surrounded
by a cordon of police, which gradually
is closing in. All information points
to the conclusion that the rebellion in
Dublin is on the verge of collapse.
"Reports tonight from the rest of
Ireland are generally satisfactory. The
conditions at Belfast and Ulster are
normal and the situation at London
derry is said to be quite satisfactory.
The district within 15 miles of Galway
also is reported normal, but rebel
bands have been located between
Athenry and Craunwell.
Rebel Band Entrenched.
"Nineteen rebel prisoners have been
captured and sent to Queenstown.
Another band of rebels is reported en
trenched at Enniscorthy, but the police
still are holding out and roads and
railways are clear to within four miles
of the town. The damage done to Gar
row bridge on the Dublin & South
eastern Railroad is not serious."

Nun r einers' stronghold, spread
around the citv this morninc. ItwnnlH

When the Sheriff of Whatcom County
was appealed to, he was forced to give
up the idea of rescuing the fishermen,
as they are on Government property
and beyond the jurisdiction of the
state officers.

EL PASO, April 30. Mexican and
American conferees over the disposition
of the American forces in Mexico
marked time today while Generals
Hugh L. Scott and Frederick Funston
awaited word from Washington as to
the next step to be taken in the nego
tiations with General Obregon.
The report of the American ropre
sentatives on the first conference went
forward by wire early, today. On the
answer of President Wilson and Secre
taries Lansing and Baker to its recom
mendations depends the future status
of the conference.
Obregon Given Xo Ultimatum.
In the meantime the following facts
developed :
That to date the apparent intention
of the Washington Government to keep
General Pershing's columns In Mexico
has not been changed.
That General Obregon in yesterday's
conference served no sort of notice on
Generals Scott and Funston that could
be construed as an ultimatum demand
ing immediate withdrawal.
That the d,esire of the de facto gov
ernment for withdrawal was again
announced, but that the only discussion
along this line was regarding the ad
visabllity of an American retirement.
Co-operation la Discussed.
That there was considerable discussion
of the possibility of effective American
and Mexican co-operation In the erad
tcation of scattered Villa bandit groups
That there is a strong possibility
there will be only one more conference
that depending on the wishes of the
Washington Government.
That while the present negotiations
are . proceeding, shipments of supplies
to the American expedition's forces are
going forward uninterruptedly, among
other supplies leaving the Columbus
base today being nine truckloads o
ordnance.
Withdrawal Flrt With Mexicans.
From stray bits of Information that
became known today. It appears that
yesterday's conference ended with the
question of withdrawal of the United
States troops still uppermost in the
minds of the Mexican conferees. They
are understood to have tried to impress
on the American representatives the!
contention that political conditions li
Mexico are such that they cannot be
responsible for any eventualities tha:
may result from continued occupation
of Mexican soil by American columns.
They are said also to have laid stress

BV JOHX CAL.UAN' OLAVGHLIV.
WASHINGTON. ,April SO. (Special.)
As a result of the secret exchanges
hich have taken place between tha
United states and Germany during tha
past week, including the conference of
Kmperor 'William end Ambassador
Gerard, the authorities here under.
tend:
I. That Germany has no desire for
br'ak of relations with the Vnitrd
tstes and. indeed, stronaly desires a
ontinuance of frierdly relations.
That Germany substantially will
meet the wishes of the Vni'ed Stales
connect'on with her future o;.ti-
ions against inerchant'v-
Protrat Allies I rtrd.
3. That Germany believes thst tho
nited States should address Itself tc
foe. allies, with a view to tv minat
their violations of international law
directed to the end of star-inff the
German people.
4. That so far as the Channel
steamer Sussex Is concerned. Germany
tands ready to make such reparation
as the facts in the case may warrant.
Coming over the cables tonipht Is a
long dispatch from Ambassador Gerard,
setting forth the views expressed by
Kmperor 'William and his response
thereto. The Department received a
cablegram today, notifying It that the
dispatch had been filed. This was in
plain Knglish. The message now be
ing received is in cipher.
Kalser'a Receptloa Friendly.
Enough has been translated to show
that the Emperor's reception of the
American Ambassador was friendly.
though there was no doubt of the im
perial belief as to the necessity of con
tinuing submarine operations. The
entire translation will be handed to
Secretary Lansing tomorrow and a copy
of it will be read by the President late
in the day.
The understanding at the department
is that the Emperor's talk with Mr.
Gerard was for the direct information
of President Wilson. In other words.
the head of the German empire, pre
liminary to a formal answer to the
American note, has taken the diplo
matic situation out of the hands of hi.
advisers and has addressed himself di
rectly to the task of placating the heailj
of the American Republic.
Responsibility Pat on "Wilson.
Until the Emperor's views are before
the President and the formal note from
the German government is at hand tho
President will be unable to decide whar
steps to take. It is evident that th
aim of the German diplomats is t
place squarely upon the shoulders o;
Mr. Wilson the responsibility of an
rupture of relations. Mr. Wilson i-
willing to accept the responsibility, a-
he Indicated in his note of April 1!
but he prefers that if a break shal '
come no doubt can exist in any mini
i to German culpability.
Germany insists she has not beer
and is not now inspired by any pur
pose to prosecute "relentless and in
discriminate warfare" against vessel
of commerce. She contends she wa
forced to lopt the methods which
have given offense to this country b
the unprecedented and lawless acts o:
the British government, which haj en
deavored to weaken her by warring
