EL PASO, Texas, June 4.-Senor Mai
len. Mexican Consul at El Paso, gate
the following statements to the Asso
ciated Press:
"Only seven Mexicans and two Ameri
can were killed at La Cananea. The
Mexican officials are now in absolute con
trol and so quiet is the situation that
Governor Ysabel returned to Hennosillo
today leaving Feneral Torres and Colonel
Kosterlitsky in charge. The Mexican
government does not censure Ysabel for
taking armed Americans to Mexico as
they were not soldiers, and it was time
for action. The trouble at Xaeo be
tween the American and Mexican offi
cers Friday was due to a mistake of
somebody and is deplorable, but I am
satisfied that is dead. There was no
organized attempt as you know of armed
men to force themselves into Mexico. I
think the incident is closed."
The troops nt from Chihuahua yes
terday are still camped in Ciudad Juarez
and did not go to La Cananea although
they have permission to pass through
the United States.
XOGALES, Ariz., June 4. There is
absolutely no truth in the report of re
newed trouble at La Canaea. Korter-
lit-ky is in full control. All was quiet
up to late tonight.
ANARCHISTS UNDER BAN
OF FEDERALGOVERNMENT
Suspected Individuals Will Not Be
Allowed to Enter
XEW YORK. June 4.-Whtliep, if
England and the continental wwer
combine to deprive anarchist of any
asylum abroad they nii;ht llml tine in
this country was answered with an em
phatic "No," yesterday. According to
Assistant Commissioner of Immigration
Joseph Murray, the present laws, if en
forced are entirely adequate to keep an
archists out of this country. It is as
septet, moreover, that closer watch can
1m kept on anarchists already here than
is the general impreion in Europe.
Dispatches from hmdon yesterday
suggested a possible crusade against the
anarchists of England with the possi
bility that such action might result in
an anarchistic immigration to America.
"Any such immigration of anarchists
could be checked the minute we learned
of it," said As-istant Commissioner Mur
ray yesterday. "The present laws are
certainly effective enough to compel the
deportation of anarchists, whenever they
land in this country."
The general impre.Mtm that the pos
session of siilllcieiit money will entitle an
anarchist to come into the United State
is wrong. No alien is admitted if It
appear to the Is Mini of inquiry at Ellis
Island that he i- liable to become a pub
lic charge, to become an Inmate of pub
lic institutions, as nn insane asylum, or
a prison, or Is undesirable jjenerally. An
anarchist can. of course, be deported
under this provision.
"Moreover, the immigration laws pro
vide that any anarchist can be deported
solely because he is nil anarchist."
Further inquiry at the island brought
out t lit' statement that an understand
ing was not impossible between the Fed
eral tioverninent, England and the conti
nental nations, whereby the police in
each country should combine against the
anarchists.

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Dory Capsizes Drowning One Woman
Three Others Unconscious.
XEW YORK. June 4. One young
woman was drowned and three others
were dragged out of the water uncon
scious and hurried to the Washington
Heights hospital early today as a re
.suit of the capsizing of a small dory that
had put off from the steam yacht Diana
owned by a Dr. Halgren, in the Xorth
River, opposite 158th street. The yacht
had returned from a trip up the Hudson
and was bound for its anchorage down
the bay. When off 158th street the yacht
was stopped and a boat lowered so that
five of the party could be taken, ashore.
Those who left the yacht were Walter
Anderson, Charles Conway, Miss Madge
2augner, of Bay Ridge, and Miss Bessie
Hoop. A man who was the fifth member
of the party and the last to climb down
into the boat, stepped on the gunwale,
upsetting the craft. The crew of the
yacht went to the rescue, but Mi-s Hoop
was carried out by the tide and drown
ed before she could be reached.
The others were dragged to the d-ck
of the yacht and taken to shore. An
derson, Conway and Miss Zaugner were
in a very bad condition and were taken
in an ambulance to tlje hospital. It was
said at the ho-qjital tha Anderson was
in a critical condition and that it was
fered he would not survive many hours.
Nearly Every Creed and Dogma Is Rep
resented at the Congress, Which
Will Discuss Religious
Subjects.
CHICAGO, June 4. As a preliminary
"broadside"' of the Congress of Religions,
which will begin its annual sessions to
day at Abraham Lincoln Center, sermons
were delivered yesterday in 13 churche
jn the city and suburbs on the question,
"What Is the Greatest Need in Religion
Today!"
Among the various denominations rep
resented in the congress are Baptists,
Christian, Congregational, Episcopal, In
dependent, Jewish, Lutheran, Methodist,
Presbyterian, Unitarian, United Breth
ren and Universalists.
Jenkin Lloyd Jones, the general sec
retary of the congress, made three ad
dresses yesterday. He said, in part:
"The greatest need in religion today
is that interpretation that will release
it from the trammels of dogma, the
lashes of sectarianism, the distractions
of denominational rivalries.
"Religion ha wasted itself in dream
ing, in self-anxiety in preparing for a
residence in some far-off land in the be
vond. The dinlluions of science, the
achievements of commerce, the rewards
of industry all combine in calling for a
practical religion, one that precipitates
itself in social service. It is a man
made and a poor religion that is absorbed
with an anxious concern for its own fu
ture.
"If religion is the major motive, the
primary inspiration, it must take on
more and more life of the community.
Its tests are those of social service, its
inspirations are the inspirations that
come from a sincere effort to merge the
life of the individual in the life of the
community; to find one's own joy in
the growing joy of all."

FIGHT AGAINST EIGHTY
CENT GAS
Arguments heard in U. S. Circuit Court
on Question of Allowing Authori
ties to Enforce the
Gas Law.
XEW YORK. June 4. Th ( ity of
Xew York will be represented today in
the arguments which are to be heard
before Judge Ijicombe in the United
States Circuit Court on the question of
continuing pending litigation, the order
obtained by the Consolidated !as Com
pany restraining the authorities from
enforcing the new NO-cent gas law.
The city's reply to the suit, which is
also brought against the state gas com
mission, the Attorney General and the
District Attorney, is a denial of the
company's assertion that it is a duly
organized company enjoying only valid
franchises, and also a denial of the alle
gation that 80-cent price is confiscatory.
The brief prepared by Corporation
Counsel Delaney, which was given out
lat night, asserts that:
The Consolidated Gas Company of Xew
Yoi-k is not and never was a corporation
as alleged in paragraph I. and further
more that the companies alleged in said
paragraph to have been consolidated
were not at or before said consolidation
as alleged, duly organized and existing
under the laws of the State of Xew York
with the property owners and franchises
as alleged in said paragraph.
Furthermore, the city goes on to say
in its brief, "The Consolidated Gas Com
pany did not become the owner of or en
titled to maintain mains, pipes and con
duits in the streets and highways of the
City of Xew York and has not laid ad
ditional mains, pipes, and conduits with
the consent of the municipal author
ties."
In support of the city's, contention that
the Coruvolidated Gas Company did not
possess valid franchises an extract is
given of the report of the Stevens In
vestigating commission in which it finds
that moKt ,if not all the franchises of
he companies now in the Consolidated,
have lapsed.
The principal affidavit in the city's
case is made by Engineer William D.
Marks, who has been retained by the
city for this purpose since January. He
says that the aggregate capitalization of
the companies in the Consolidated was
$17,000,000, but the Consolidated Gas
Company, which absorbed them, divided
among them $39,000,000 of securities and
come $2,000,000 in cash, making a total
increase of $24,000,000.
