MONDAY EVENING, DICKINSON COLLEGE MAY HAVENEW HEAD Criticism of President Noble's Management Likely to Lead Trustees to Remove Him Special to The Telegraph Philadelphia, Pa., April 27.-—Mem bers of the board of trustees and grad uates of Dickinson College at Carlisle, Pa., are stirred by a movement which has been started for the removal of Dr. Edgar Noble as president of that institution. A trustee said here last night that this condition was the re sult of financial difficulties the college was facing. The situation cam* to light yesterday with a report from Carlisle, that members of the faculty had come to Philadelphia for a con ference with several of the trustees. Criticism of DoctorNoblo as head of the institution has been made, accord ing to two of the trustees, and many of those interested in the welfare of the college has expressed the opinion that he cannot command the financial support which another might secure. One member of the board said con ditions at Dickinson certainly were not what they should be, and hinted at a strong opposition on the part of many members of the board to Doctor Nob le's continuance as head of the institu tion. Judge E. \V. Biddle chairman of the board of trustees, refused to com ment on the situation, but said that there would be a meeting of the board within the next few weeks. Another member of the board said that there had been no criticism of Doctor Nob le's administration in scholastic mat ters, and he felt sure that if some other plan could be devised for streng thening the college financially there would be no objection to his contin uing as head of the institution. Fie did not believe that there had be»n any suggestions of a successor to Doc tor Noble 8.. far. There are 40 members of the board of trustees, and a meeting will be held on May 15. Doctor Noble will complete his third year as President of Dickinson College next October. He was chosen in the fall of 1911 by a committee of the board delegated to select a successor to Dr. George E. Reed, who retired at that time on a pension from the Car negie Fund. Doctor Noble previously was president of Gouoher College, at Baltimore. THREATEN TO STRIKE Special to The Telegraph Altoona, Pa..

AWAITS ARRIVAL OF REFUGEE TRAIN [Continued from First Page.] unable to predict just what disposition will be made of the first troops to land, but it is supposed that the in fantrymen will be used in patrolling the streets and the cavalry on the picket lines beyond the city limits. Naval officers welcome the relief of the bluejacket battalions from patrol duty ashore, as they say the men are accustomed to the constant work of earing for the ship and great guns and the monotonous grind of sentry duty is trying on them. Both bluejackets and marines, however, are maintain ing a wonderfully clear record for or derly conduct ami the officers are en thusiastic in praise of their efficiency at any task to which they may have been assigned. About the central plaza of the city, where the small park, brilliant with tropical growths, is surrounded on two sides by sidewalk cafes of Parisian appearance, the scene is an animated one from early morning until late at night. The tables are thronged with refugees and women of all nationali ties from interior points and the dis- I cussion of the probable fate of friends and acquaintances still unheard from occupies every group. Many Wear Union Jocks The gathering represents every ac tivity in the interior of Mexico in which Europeans have had a part and many of the British subjects still wear a union jack pinned to coats or dress fronts which were put on when they made their way to the front. Anxiety knows no nationality. The British and Germans fear the wrath of the Mexican mob will make no dis tinction between those of white skin and that all will share the common fate as Americans if an uprising should occur. As the days pass and the exodus of refugees from coast points continues, with no reports of violence, hope among those gathered here is growing that loss of life will bo averted and damage Inflicted only in a financial sense. Stores are Thriving Vera Crui stores are doing a thriv ing business supplying those who fled. The cafes are reduced to meager bills of fare to meet the demand. Ice is at a premium and restaurants are striv ing to reopen trade with truck gar deners and dairies to the southward. Peons are flocking to the city datlv. their arms laden with live chickens and eggs, carried for miles to get the unusual prices which prevail here. City hotel accommodations are strained to the limit to care for the influx of refugees and the American officials continue to-day their efforts to induce the women at least to go to the United States. The steamer Mex ico carried more than 500 when It sailed for Galveston last night and when enough desirous of making the trip are gathered another ship will follow.

There the Mexican flag is still flying and the Mexican commandant is still In control of 80 armed soldiers and 500 prisoners, many of the latter most desperate criminals. A narrew cause way connects the forti-ss with the shore and this is constantly guarded, being covered by a field piece and a machine gun, making a guard in the fortress unnecessary. Captain Stlckney said to-day that It soon would be necessary to feed not only the prisoners, but also the Mex ican soldiers, who still bear arms in service under their own flag. Three flat cars loaded with work men arrived at Tejera yesterday and the men were immediately added to those engaged in tearing up the rail road track. Two miles of track have already been removed. Ordered to Mine Bridges It has been learned here that Gen eral Rublo Navarete, a relative of Huerta. has been detailed to the work of destroying the railroad should that step become necessary. He has orders to mine all bridges between the coast and the capital as well as the tunnels along the stretch of the road through the mountains. Nelson O'Shaughnessy spent a great part of Sunday aboard the battleship Minnesota, coming ashore in the after noon for a short time.

Huerta Controls Roads With the exception of the Pan- American railway, extending from Guatemala up the west coast to con nection with the Tehuantepec road, General Huerta is now operating with his own men every railroad in Mexico without regard to the rights of foreign owners. He has driven away every foreigner. The last road to be taken over was the Tehuantepec Nacional, connecting the Pacific and Atlantic ports of Sallna Cruz and Coatzacoalcos. This property is owned jointly by the government and Lord Cowdray and has been operated by Cowdray. Foreigners Released J. B. Boyd returned Sunday from Coatzacoalcos, where he effected the release of all foreigners who had been arrested under Huerta's orders and held at Rincon Antonio, the head quarters of the road. More than fifty foreigners had been detained, includ ing officials of the railroad, conductors, engineers and machinists. Boyd had the men and their families sent to the coast, some to the Atlantic port and others to the Pacific port. The Vera Cruz and Isthmus railroad line between Tierra Blanca and Vera Cruz is not in operation at all. The big bridge at Boca del Rio, eight miles from Vera Cruz, over which it enters this city, has been dynamited. MEXICANS ATTEMPT ! TO CROSS BORDER [Continued from First Page.] of State Bryan and a statement was expected later in the day relating to the next move to be made In the situa tion. Soon after Secretary Bryan inform ed President Wilson of the advices from Mexico City that Huerta had ac ceded to the preliminary steps in the mediation proposals, further encour agement in the situation came In ad vices from Berlin that Germany, France and Great Britain had urged Huerta, through their diplomatic rep resentatives in Mexico City to yield to the American demands. When this was communicated to the President he was greatly pleased. Later the German ambassador, Mr. Von Bernstorff, informer Secretary Bryan that his government would, sup port the mediation proposal. Another Refugee Train Another cause for optimism among Washington officials was the assur ances from Admiral Badger that ef forts of British and German officials In Mexico apprehension over American and other foreign refugees in Mexico had been greatly dispelled. One offl- t APRIL 27,1914. clal dispatch from Admiral Badger to the Navy Department declared that the authorities jn Mexico City had agreed to provide transportation for jail Americans from Mexico City as far j as Soledad, the Mexican controlled end jof the railroad to Vera Cruz. It also -announced th. t the first train with 250 American refugees would leave Mexico City to-day. The conclusion of negotiations in this connection was gratifying to the President and Secre tary Bryan as well as the War Depart ment officials. Announcement also was made to day that Mexico refugees who are be ing held by this government at Fort Bliss since the battle of Ojinaga would be transferred to Fort Wingate, New Mexico, in order to get them away from the border where trouble may be expected. It is expected that Briga dier General Bliss will start the move ment of the exiles as soon as possible. Mexican soldiers and camp followers at Fort Bliss, number 5,000 and some difficulty may be experienced In pro curing transportation facilities. Activity continued at the War De partment and the Navy Department during the day, word being expected before night that General Funston and the troops enroute to Vera Cruz to reinforce the naval forces there had reached their destination. Efforts at mediation, however, were the most In evidence of all other ele ments in the crisis. It was reported here that General Huerta had been communicated with through private sources before the mediation pro- 5 posals were announced by the Latin- American dlplomates and that they had at that time practical assurances from close associates of the provis ional Mexican president that he would accept their good offices. Success of the first step toward mediation coupled with the apparent efforts of the big European powers to present war, and secure a settlement of this problem, removed from the situation some of the elements of ten sion which has gripped It for several days. Chairman Stone of the Senate com mittee on foreign relations who con ferred with the President, said mem bers of Congress would generally ap prove of the mediation efforts. European Influence The adding of European Influence to the generally sympathetic attitude which practically all Latin-American diplomates here have assumed to ward the mediation idea gave many administration officials a confident feeling that after all Huerta mlKht bo disposed to end the present crisis In a way satisfactory to all concerned. The Bolivian government through its minister here has notified Secretary Bryan of its great satisfaction with the acceptance by the United States of the proposal to mediate the difference between the United States ar.d Mexico. Advices received from many officials sources from South America indicate that the press and public of the Latin- American countries are almost a unit in approving of the mediation pro gram.
