Agreement by tho United States to tho proposal that a joint International commission settle the differences between the United States and Mexico Is expected by border observers here to have tho following results: Withdrawal of General Pershing's expedition. Establishment of n border patrol, with Carranza and American soldiers co-operating. Financial nld to the Carranza Gov ernment All these developments nro not immi nent, however. General Tershlng Is pre paring for a stay of several months In Mexico, and his expedition wilt not bo withdrawn until tho commission has roached a final settlement. In this tho Mexican representatives must show that the border patrol which Is planned will bo ef fective on tho south side of tho Interna tional boundary. The most Important Immediate result may be that First Chief Carranza will rccelvo financial backing for his government. In somo quarters here It Is asserted thnt Car ranza has won n diplomatic victory that will win to his support a number of Ameri can financiers who had hitherto refused him monetary nld. The establishment of an effective border patrol probably will keep the American troops now at the border nt their stations for several months. Members of the Legallntn Junta hero, who havo been silent for many days, nroused themselves at the 'report of tho two Gov ernments' agreement nnd declared that "Pancho" Vllln had offered to quit Mexico If the Lcgnllsta plan of government gains headway, Tho Legallstas havo boon play ing to Villa from tho first. Their greatest tactical move In this direction was tha promlso that former Mndcro officers would play a big part In the new organization. Word of Villa himself Is vnguo. But It Is known for a fact that his bands are active along tho Durango State line, and some of thorn are raiding far north In Chlhunhua. Tho Villa band reportod In tho vicinity of OJInaga seems to havo been scared oft by the rushing of American troops to a point on tho bordor whero a raid could be mot by swift retribution. Another band Is reported 300 miles from tho International boundary lino on tho Chlhuahua-Sonora border.

"Tho Louisiana blinkered Interrogatory to her several times and turned on man-of-war lights. Finally sho answered (blinker) 'English cruiser.' Sho signaled very rapidly, causing the Louisiana to have her repeat more than once until wo were suro of her Blgn.il. She disappeared In tho darkness toward tho channel to Hampton Roads. "I did not signal to ask her name and her Intentions because her actions had not seemed suspicious to me Inasmuch as sho seemed fairly to dlscloso her presence, seemed fairly standing for Hampton Roads and left mo with tho feeling thnt sho was actually going Into port nnd would bo found off Fort Monroe In the morning," NORFOLK, July 20.

I POPE PRAYS TO LORD OF MERCIES TO END AWFUL CARNAGE OF WAR CcvvrloM, lttt, ty United Trtu, NEW YORK, July 29. rpHE United Press today received the following message from Pope Benedict, through the agency of Cardinal Gasparri : To the United Press Association, New York, U. S. A., I have presented your telegram to the Holy Father. His Holi ness is grateful for your respect and confidence in tho Holy See. He prays that tho Lord of Mercies, moved by the prayers of innocent children imploring peace on this second anniversary of tho terrible conflict, shall deign to end speedily this awful carnage. GASPARRI. The foregoing translation of the message transmitted by the Papal Sec retary of State was made by Monsignor Lavelle, of St. Patrick's Cathedral, who, on behalf of Cardinal Farley, added!

By the Cardinal's direction, nil the priests are praying for peaco every day nt the altar. They are constantly urging to the same pious practice all the people, and especially tho innocent children bo touchingly alluded to in the papal telegram. Tho message from the Pope appealing for peaco through the prayers of tho innocent children of tho world was in response to a cablegram sent by the United Press from New York, supplementing n request made at tho Vatican by John H.

Tho parade was lato In getting under way. Trouble was encountered In tho first Instanco In getting Queen Claire's offlclnl barge, a ponderous nffalr, to tho starting placo In tho Northfleld Canal.

Finally a Targer craft was pressed Into commission, and from that tlmo for ward everything moved with absoluto smoothness.

Miss Lillian Blaess and Miss Eliza beth Chled. In tho waist of tho barge six heralds in court costumes blew blasts to the cheering populace. VARE AT THE WHEEL. Then followed -10 or mora largo and small craft, all gorgeously bedecked with flags, bunting nnd flowers. Congressman Varo stood at the wheel of the Bittersweet, a fine cruiser, carrying a big flag, Inscribed "Champion," to signify Its victories In many closely contested races. The Peggy, flagship of Commodore Sam uel W. Whan, another Phlladelphlan, car ried Mayor Bacharach and the City Com missioners and members of the Carnival Committee.

Ask Your Dealer for RlBPffllNHBlTWAfl Temperature Off 5 Degrees And Water Density is 63 Relief Un til Next Blanket Drops With a decrease of 19 per cent In. humid ity and n drop of 5 decrees In temperature). compared with tho same time yesterday", Philadelphia Is getting a respite from th suffering of tho heat and humidity wavas today. George S. Bliss, weather forecasted announced this morning that today and to- night will be altogether comfortable. A high barometilc pressure area has set tled down the) coast, Including the city. With It have como pooling breezes that have dried tho air and caused tho decrease In humid' Ity. Tho percentage of humidity at 8 o'clock this morning wns 63, compared with 8 1 Tier cent at 8 o'clock yesterday morning. The temperature at 8 this morning vras 67, com pared with 72 yesterday. All this comes as a relief to a month which has recorded tha greatest percentage of humidity of any month since the Weather Bureau was established In Phlla delphla In 1888. The humidity has been causing tho suffering. The average (era Prature in the 28 days of the month really was only one degree nbovo normal. This heat wave, or, to be mora exact, humidity wave, was caused primarily by the "Bermuda high." A heavy atmospheric) pressure In tho Atlantic about Bermuda, Island pushed the tropical weather In. Warm winds, laden with a very thin mist, camo across tho Atlantic seaboard Statea from this pressure point to the southeast. They continued across tho country as far as tho Rocky Mountains, heating especially tho lako regions, tho upper Mississippi valley and the northern plains States, and caus ing much Buffering and damage to the crops. When atmospheric pressure accumulated in tho northwest of tho United States and drifted across tho country near the Cana dian boundary, opposing winds developed which relieved thoso from the Atlantic When this pressuro reached the SL Law rence Bay It hung, ns It sometimes does, abovo Maine. It Is thero now. That ia whero tho cooling winds nro coming from. Predictions wero that tho West will con tinue to suffer Indefinitely. Sections of tha East that havo had cool weather for tha last day or two will b'cgtn to "warm Up" tomorrow, it was said. Thcro Isn't a breczo or a storm or nnythlng else big enough to causo relief In prospect, tho forecasters said. Heat Kills Five in Detroit DETROIT, Mich., July 29.
