DECISION OF CONFERENCE UNANIMOUS Mexican Capital Receives News With Great Rejoicing Amnesto for All Who Submit Is Plan. Washington, D. C Recognition of the party led by General Carranza as the defacto government in Mexico has been unanimously agreed on by the Pan-American conference as the step to be recommended to their respective governments. Secretary Lansing, on behalf of the United States government, expressed its Intention to recognize uenerai car ranza. and the ambassadors of Brazil, Chile and Argentina and the ministers of Bolivia, Uruguay and Ouatemala transmitted the decision of the Wash ington government, as well as their own opinions In agreement with it. Full Agreement Reached. Mr. Lansing has obtained the ap proval of President 'Wilson to the nlan. and before the conference began all the ministers In the Latin-American corps bIbo had given their adher ence to it The attitude of the conference was regarded generally as the most im portant diplomatic step in tne Mexi can situation since the United States decided to withhold recognition' frm the Huerta" government, more' than two years ago. It means that the Car ranza government will receive the moral support of the United States and that an embargo on shipments" Of arms to opposing factions will be laid as soon as recognition actually Is ex tended, which probably will be within a fortnight. ..v Newt Pleasing to Carranza. Vera Cruz. General Carranza re ceived with great pleasure the news that the Pan-American conference at Washington had decided to resognlze him as the defacto government in Mexico, although he pointed out that he had received no official notice to this effect He will not alter his plans for a trip through the northern states. In response to questions General Carranza said: "When peace absolutely Is restored and tranquillity really established throughout the country, amnesty will be granted to all these persons, but not now. To permit them to return at this time would be to endure their ma chinations within the republic. "The Immediate effect of this news will be a great moral strengthening ot the cause of constitutionalism and a corresponding disheartening of oppos ing factions. There will be no more formal battles. Fighting of that sort already has ended, but naturally the struggle to put down minor outbreaks and lawlessness must be continued for a greater or less time In a country such as this, where there are exten sive open areas."

Portland A stronger wheat market in the East has Increased the demand in the Northwest for grain for Eastern 'shipment, and buyers from that quar ter who had been talking of reselling their purchases accordingly elevated their views. The cash market in Chi cago was from 7 to 12 cents above the December option. It is figured that 400 carloads of wheat have been bought to date to go East, . and the. local trade looks for a continuance of the movement. Country business has again decreased, as the Chicago ad vance has made farmers firmer. Bids at the Merhcants' Exchange were generally on a higher basis. Offers for club were raised 1 to li cents and red wheat bids were 1 to 2 cents higher. There was a 4-cent ad vance in offers for November forty fold and 2 cents for the October de livery. Spot bluestem wss unchanged, but November was raised 8 cents. For the first time In weeks there were bids for brewing barley at the Exchange. Offers were made to buy 600-ton lots at $27, but sellers would not consider this price. Feed barley was 60 cents higher at $26.60. The oats market was also firmer, with bids raised 60 cents, the strength being due to the advance In barley. - Bradstreets reports the visible wheat increase this week at 14,000,000 bush els, the corn increase at 1,406,000 bushelB, and the oats increase at 1, 453,000 buBhelB.

The lots purchased were those of Frank Elgin, 154 bales, George Elgin, 125 bales; Charles Elgin, 145 bales, and P. N. Campbell, 120 bales. There was a re port of a deal involving about a car load at Rickreall, but otherwise busi ness in this state was quiet. Prices remain unchanged at 9 to 10 cents for the qualities now being offered. Shippers were disturbed by the an nouncement that the transcontinental lines would not issue through bills of lading on hops Intended for England, owing to the freight congestion on the trans-Atlantic steamship lines. The Canadian roads, however, are tak ing hops for through shipment. Cotton Exports Show Increase, Washington, D. C.

EXECUTIVE'S DAUGHTER FAVORS MATCH Brief Announcement of Engagement Is Formally Given to Public by Chief's Private Secretary. Washington, D. C Woodrow Wil son, the President of the United States, announced Thursday his en gagement to Mrs. Norman Gait, of Washington. ' The date of the wedding has not been fixed, but it probably will take place in December at the home of the bride-elect The brief announcement from the White House made by Secretary Tu multy came as a surprise to official Washington, but to several intimate friends it has long been expected. From this circle came the story of a friendship whose culmination was viewed as a happy turn in the troubled and lonely life of the nation's chief executive. It was Miss Margaret ' Wilson and her cousin, Miss Bones, who drew Mrs. Gait into the White House. They met her first in the early autumn of last year and were so much attracted by her that;, they sought her out more and more frequently and the friendship between them ripened into an affctlon ate intimacy. .'-;. Mrs. Gait spent a month this Bum mer at Corninh as the house guest of the President's eldest daughter. - It was through this intimacy of his daughter and cousin that the President had an opportunity to meet and know Mrs. Gait. One of the most interest ing facts about the engagement, in deed, as told by friends, is that the President's daughters should have chosen Mrs. Gait for their admiration and friendship before their father did. Mrs, Gait is the widow, of a widely known business man of Washington, who died about eight years ago, leav ing a jewelry business that still bears his name. She has lived in Washing ton since her marriage in 1896: She is about 88 years old and, was Miss Edith Boiling, borif 'ln Wytheville, Vs., where her girlhood was spent and where her father, William H. Boiling, was a prominent lawyer. For many weeks Mrs. Gait and her relatives have been frequent dinner guests at the White House. Often she has accompanied the President on motor rides. She 1b not quite a tall as Mr. Wilson, has dark hair and dark eyes and always is in stylish attire. Her tastes are said to be strikingly similar to those of the President with a deep interest in literature and char ity wok. Goethals Returns to Panama to - dear Away Slides From Canal Panama Major General George W. Goethals has withdrawn his resigna tion of governor of the Panama canal zone. This fact was announced by General Goethals on his arrival on board the steamship Cristobal from New York after a vacation spent in the United States. His action was taken, he said, in view of the recent slides in the Gaillard cut which have closed traffic through the canal. General Goethals said he would re main in Panama indefinitely until such time as the condition of the canal would permit his departure. Further than to make this announcement "and his announcement that he had cabled Secretary of War Garrison withdraw ing his resignation, which was to have become effective November 1, General Goethals had nothing to say concern ing the canal. He did not seem worried over the situation, but eager to enter on the work of combatting the slide. He will discuss the situation with Lieu tenant Colonel Chester Harding, engi neer of maintenance, and afterward make a personal study of the slides. Gaffney's Resignation In. Washington, D. C. The resignation of T. St John Gaffney, American con sul general at Munich,-, requested by the State department because of on- neutral utterances, was received Thursday and accepted by cable.
