behaved indiscreetly with a woman member of the congregation and it was voted to grant him a letter of recommendation The trouble was thrashed out last night at a meeting of the deacons the church council and the congregation Charges were preferred against the Rev Mr Henry at the last business meeting of the church a few weeks ago The charges'were based upon the finding of a letter in a cupboard at the church One faction of the church asserted that the letter had been written by the Rev Mr Henry to a woman member of hls flock and that it was one of a long series of letters that had made up a clandestine correspondence The other faction de fended the pastor and declared that there was no proof that the letter had been written ny the pastor as I signed and as it was not I orecast for CLOUDY Indiana for Tuesday and Wednesday: Partly cloudy Tues day and Wednesday and speak daily until the elec WASHINGTON July As viewed from Washington tonight the situation appeared to be at a standstill so far as plans for the proposed confer ence between the contending factions over internal affairs was concerned It was generally believed here'that no ar rangements for such a meeting could be made until the conference at Torreon be tween Villa and Carranza generals has concluded an adjustment of differences between the Constitutionalist leaders This probably will consume several more days Dr Romulo Naon the Argentine minister and one of the South American mediators conferred with Secretary of State Bryan and discussed mediation at length After the conference Mr Naon reiterated his expression of hope that Carranza and Villa soon will have ad justed their internecine troubles and that then the first Constitutionalist chief will be authorized by the leaders of the revolution to send delegates to confer with representatives' in accord ance with the urgent wish of the Wash ington administration and the invitation ol mediators themselves Reports Are Encouraging Agents of Gen Carranza here were in communication with the first chief at Sal tillo and also received reports from the Carranza Villa at Torreon which they insisted held out strong en couragement that all the internal troubles of the revolutionists would be settled amicably and the revolution would go for ward on a firmer basis than ever with a perfect understanding as to the part each of the generals is to take The case of Gen Angeles chief of artillery whom Gen Carranza recently denounced is now said to be the chief matter of contention between the Con stitutionalist leaders Politicians are re ported to have misrepresented Angeles to Carranza and the prediction that An geles will be restored to the confidence of the first chief It also is reported here that some change in the ConstitutionalistWashington agency may be made Should the joint conference between Huerta and Carranza envoys eventually be arranged the belief prevails here that it will be held in New York American Envoys Wilt 7 Meanwhile the American commissioners Justice Lamafand Mr Lehmann remain In Washington ready to resume their work Minister Naon also awaits favor able reply to the invitation while Ambassador DaGama arid Minister Suarez the other mediators are ready to take up mediation again as soon as the proposed joint conference shall have been held Meager reports of election in that part of Mexico controlled by Huerta in which Gen Huerta is said to have been re elected though by such a scant vote that the election may be de clared void caused no excitement in of ficial circles here President Wilson smiled when the election was referred to and declined to comment upon it There was an undercurrent report however that the election was designed to pave the way for some strategic move on the part of Gen Huerta The rumor still per sisted that he contemplated leaving the country Unofficial reports were circu lated that a special train bearing mem bers of Gen family and families of some of his generals had left the City of Mexico for Puerto Mexico enters the campaign of 1914 as the sole political representative of the working class The planks include these: An eight hour day

other things that street cars shall stop on the side and that automo biles and other vehicles shall not be parked in downtown streets more than ninety minutes at a time was passed by the City Council last night The Council also adopted the first of two resolutions asking the board of public works to order the Indianapolis Traction and Terminal Company to pave between its tracks and otherwise to improve its property to as sure safety to traffic The traffic ordinance Hs similar to one passed by the Council a short time ago butvetoed by Mayor Bell The mayor in his letter to the Council explained that he1 considered the ordinance invalid on tech nical grounds but he did not offer any comment on the spirit of the measure The measure passed last night is in tended to correct the technical errors in the former measure It now goes to Mayor Bell who has fen days in which to sign or veto it If given executive approval the measure becomes effective as soon as it is signed by the mayor In gathering data for the ordinance Councilman Miller made a trip to Chi cago and studied the traffic rules there Provisions of Measure: Among the important departures from present traffic regulations are the follow ing: Street cars shall stop at the of street intersections drivers of vehicles shall not pass street cars at street intersections while passengers are getting on or off cars no vehicle shall emerge from an alley or stable at a speed faster than a walk all traffic on streets running north and south shall have the right of way Massachusetts Virginia Indiana and Kentucky 1

persons shall drive a vehicle which is so constructed as to obstruct the view of the driver and no one shall hold to a vehicle while it is in motion The most drastic "provision of the ordi nance relates to the parking of vehicles on the downtown streets If provides that vehicles shall not be parked for more than ninety minutes at a time in the section bounded by Capitol avenue Delaware street New York street and Maryland street This provision will make the present practice of parking machines for hours at a time in front of office buildings unlawful The ordi nance provides a tine of from $10 to $100 for each violation Car Company Rapped Councilman Porter introduced' the reso lution asking that the company be or dered to pave between its tracks and re pair the trsr ks on Senate avenue from Indiana avenue to Twenty first street President Connor said he intends to in troduce a similar resolution at the next session asking that the board of works order the company to repair its tracks
