PHYSICIAN'S DEATH
ADDS TO THE TENSE
FEELING IN COLORADO
Nine Identified Dead Marks Day's
Toll in Western Coal
Fields
STRIKERS BREAK PLEDGES
Agree to Truce, But When Soldiers
Advance They Again
Open Fire
By Associated rress
Denver, Colo. April 30.—Nine identi
fied dead and probably many more
whose death was not reported was the
result of the fighting yesterday and j
last night In the strike zone of thej
Southern Colorado coal fields.
The killing: of Major P. P. Lester, a
prominent physician of Walsenburg,
while trying to save the life of a
wounded guardsman was one of the
agencies which added to the tense feel
ing to-day.
The battle at Forbes where seven
mine guards and two strikers were
known to have been killed yesterday
caused State officials to announce that
drastic action would have to be taken
immediately to prevent further blood
shed. For this work. Governor Am
nions looks to the United States
troops.
Detachment For Walsonburg
What disposition would be made of
the troops from Fort Leavenworth
under Major Holbrook, who arrived
in the Trinidad district was not known
early to-day. The battle at Walsen
burg was between one hundred State
soldiers and more than 4UO strikers
entranched in rifle pits behind the lava
formation of the hills which form a
semicircle around Walsenburg for a
distance of three miles.
Under Lieutenant Scott, one detach
ment of militia advanced along the
hills. Captain Swope commanded the
other which followed. The soldiers
were armed with rifles and service re
volvers and proceeded without thought |
of attack. *
Orders Fire Returned
Suddenly from the rille pits came
a rain of bullets over the heads of the
first detachment. Lieutenant Scott
drew his men up in fighting line and
ordered the fire returned. Soon he
saw that the attacking force greatly
outnumbered his men, that they had
the advantage of the natural fortifi
cation, and he ordered his men into
the arroyo.
Captain Swope hurried to reinforce
the vanguard, his men tiring as they
ran. When the two commands join
ed they gradually withdrew from the
arroyo and advanced upon the
trenches.
Then from the south came, a small
command under Captain Barrett,
hurrying to relieve them. Captain
Swope deployed his men back to the
north flank of the strikers who faced
lire from three sides. Finally Horace
N. Hawkins, attorney in Denver for
the United Mine Workers of America,
who was in telephone communication
with the strikers called upon Colonel
Verdeckberg in Walsenburg to agree
to an hour's truce, to consider terms
of surrender.
Renew Their Fire
It has said the strikers agreed to
deliver their arms to the soldiers pro
vided they were not held prisoners.
To this, it was said, Colonel Verdeek-1
berg agreed. It was arranged that |
seven officers were to go forward to!
receive the arms of the strikers as!
they filed past. • ,
Colonel Verdeckberg so informed;
the militia and they ceased firing. The'
officers, it was stated, advanced a con-1
siderable distance and the strikers left i
their position, passed the militia, and |
then renewed firing.
It was at this moment that Major!
Lester was killed. During the lull in j
battle he had gone iorward to the
aid of Private Glen Miller, who had
fallen 150 feet from the point at which!
the strikers then were.
So hot was the fire that the militia- j
men were unable to advance to the j
point where Major Lester's body lay ]
und were fully occupied in defending
themselves.
For two hours more the fighting I
continued and finally the strikers 1
withdrew, carrying their guns with'
them.

Following Event
By Associated Press
Staatsburg, N. Y„ April 30.—Wil
liam Vincent Astor, son of the late
Colonel John Jacob Astor, and Miss
Helen Dinsmore Huntington, whom
he has known since chiiuhood, were
married here shortly after noon in the
big oak-paneled library of Hopeland
House, home of the bride's parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Robert P. Huntington.
Less than fifty persons .witnessed
the ceremony, and oi these, three were
the superintendents from tne Astor,
the Huntington and the Dinsmore
estates, respectively. The other guests
were relaUves and close friends of the
lamilies. Plans had been made for
an elaborate church weddings but Mr.
Astor s recent illness, whicn threat
ened pneumonia, made necessary the
abandonment of these plans. Eighteen
hundred wedding announcements were
sent out after to-day's ceremony, but
the small company that witnessed It
had been invited by informal notes,
penned by Mrs. Huntington s secre
tary.
A fine rain was falling when the few
guests from New iork city arrived at
the 400-acre Huntington estate.
Guards had been posted at the en
trances and only those whose creden
tials were unquestioned were admitted.
Mr. Astor himself is a deputy sheriff
of Dutchess county, and some of his
fellow deputies acted as senUnels at
the gates.
Pretty Decorations
Green foliage and Spring flowers
from the Huntington conservatories
ard from New York hung everywhere
throughout the rooms of Hopeland
House. Buried in blossoms, with here
and there a touch of green, was the
marble mantel piece in the library,
before which the couple stood. Miss
Huntington entered tlue room on the
arm of her father. At her throat
gleamed a gorgeous necklace of pearU,
the gift of the bridegroom. Her
bridal gown was of white tulle, with
a train of white satin. Her lace veit
had been worn by her grandmother,
Mrs. Dinsmore, and by her mother be
fore. her.
Herman Oelrichs, of New York, an
old friend of Vincent Astor, was best
man. Miss Alice Huntington, sister
of the bride, acted as maid of honor,
and the little Misses Muriel Astor and
Margaret Dows were flower girls.
Orchestra Plays March
A screened orchestra of twenty
pieces played the Lohengrin wedding
march, and the Rev. Charles H. Dun
can, rector of St, Margaret's Church,
Staatsburg, read the Episcopal mar
riage service.
Mrs. Ava Willing Astor, mother of
the bridegroom, was among the wed
ding guests. The young widow of
Colonel Astor, although ipvited, was
not present. She is in the South.
Vincent Astor is 22 years old; the
bride is 20. She is tall and blonde.
He too, is tall. Both are lovers of
the out-of-doors, and if his health
| permits they probably will take an
I extended honeymoon voyage on his
! yacht.
Until a week ago the young heir to
I the vast Astor estate —estimated at
| from $75,000,000 to $100,000,000 —was
| confined to his room in the Hunting
ton residence. While visiting his
i fiancee a month ago he became seri
j ously ill with an abscess on the lungs,
and for a time there was talk of post
poning the wedding.
! It is understood that Mr. and Mrs.
Astor will remain at their country
home at Rhinebeck, not far from the
j Huntington place, for at least a
month.

fly Associated Press
Eccles, W. Va., April 30. After
twenty-four hours of exhausting ef
fort, Chief Henry and a party of West
Virginia mine Inspectors early to-day
reached the bottom of shaft No. 5 of
the New River Collieries Company
where 178 miners were burled by an
explosion last Tuesday They found
little gas and no damp, and expressed
the belief that condlUons were such
that some of the entombed miners
may still be alive.
All night long the inspectors had
worked in the shaft. 125 feet from
the bottom, clearing away the debris
and straightoning the leads on which
the cage is operated. The best work
men in the whole district were called
into service, but it was almost day
break when the news came from the
tipple that the cage was on its way to
the bottom.
Chief Henry said that he did not
think the mine was on fire at any
point and that he expected to find
some of the men alive.
Soon after 8 o'clock. J. W. Paul,
chief engineer of the Pittsburgh sta
tion of the Bureau of Mines, descend
ed the shaft in company with govern
ment rescue men from the other two
crews here. They had proceeded only
a short distance from the bottom
when they found six bodies huddled
together and so badly burned that
identification was Impossible. Pene
trating further into the galleries they
located other bodies and the work was
temporarily suspended while a man
was sent to the surface to prepare the
crowd for the news.

t Gen. Carranza Accepts
Mediators' Plan For
Peace in Republic
Washington, D. C., April 30.—Swift
developments In the Mexican crista
that brought Carranza. Constitution
alist chief, within the scope of pro
posed settlement plans, presented a
broadened tield of endeavor to the
American mediators to-day, and
it was believed their next move would
be a request for an armistice between
Huerta and the northern rebels. Car
ranza's entry Into this first big attempt
ot Pan-American diplomacy was con
firmed early to-day by his aceeptsinoe
In principle of the tender of the good
offices of Argentina, Brazil and Chile.
His reply, forwarded from Chihuahua,
thanked the envoys for their otter "In
an attempt to solve in a peaceful and
friendly way the differences between
Mexico and the United States." It was
pointed out that Carranza made no
reference whatever to Mexico's inter
nal strife. Whether that might have
any effect upon the reported proposal
of the mediators to ask for a cessation
of hostilities between the Constitution
alists and Huerta's army could not be
foreseen.
Carranza's acceptance of the Invita
tion to entler into the preliminaries
to the proposed mediation practically
brings within range of the aim of the
three envoys all elements effected by
the long strife in the Southern repub
lic. That development followed the
request of the mediators that Huerta
and the United States government sus
pend all military aggression pending
the outcome of the mediation attempt.
The mediators believed to-day such an
armistice would be agreed to. In its
reply to the armistice proposal the
American government will stipulate
that any untoward act aimed at Amer
icans in Mexico will be regarded as a
violation of the truce. j
C'arranza's entry as a factor in me
diation was slightly surprising in offi
cial circles, where first it had been
believed that the intermediaries would
confine their efforts to prevention of
strife between the Huerta government
and the United States. It developed,
however, that they pitched their en
deavors at settling the entire vexing
problem. Carranza's acceptance was
pleasing to President Wilson and Sec
retary Bryan and to-day their hopes
of a broad and satisfactory adjustment
of the Mexican crisis apparently were
raised.
In the event that each factor in the
three-cornered problem of diplomacy
were to agree to a general truce, the
next move of the envoys could not be
foreseen.
He|K>rt,s Discredited
Reports early to-day that Huerta's
Minister of War had announced he
had been informed that the Pacific
port of Manzanlllo had been shelled
by "an American warship" and that
marines had been landed at Salina
Cruz, were discredited. Rear Admiral
Howard, who was in close touch with
the Navy Department up to a late
hour last night, had reported that
quiet prevailed on the western coast.
Assumption of supreme command at
Vera Cruz by Brigadier General Fun
ston was a feature of the day in the
Southern field, while provisions for the
hundreds of refugees arriving at Unit
ed States ports and care of those who
still remain in Mexico kept military
officials busy.
The Constitutionalist attack on Tam
pico continued early to-day, Rear Ad
miral Badger reported. American
[Consul Miller at Tamplco returned to
shore to-day to settle the affairs of
the consulate and turn them over to
I the British Consul, Rear Admiral Bad
ger reported.
The Post Office Department an
nounced to-day that mail for trans
mission to the United States mail
agency at Vera Cruz is subject to
American domestic classification, con
dition and rates of postage.
Diaz Answers Reyes
Note of Suggestion
By' Associated Press
Paris, April 30.—Porfirio Diaz, for
mer president of Mexico, has sent an
anfewer to General Rafael Reyes con
cerning the tatter's recent effort to
compose the Mexican difficulty. Gen
eral Diaz says:
"I have received a copy of your dis
patch to President Wilson, Provisional
President Huerta. Venustiano Car
ranza and Francisco Villa. 1 am pro
foundly touched by the generous im
pulse of your noble heart in favor of
the cause of Mexico, and 1 am grateful
for your flattering, although unmer
ited. appreciation of me personally. I
hope to sec you in a few days."
General Reyes, a former president
of the republic of Colombia, has been
exerting his enegies of recent years to
strengthening the union of Latin-
American countries. Four days ago
he addressed a dispatch to President
Wilson and the Mexican leaders re
ferred to by General Diaz suggesting
that recourse be had to Porfirio Diaz
for a solution of the present crisis.
A copy of this communication was
transmitted to Diaz.
General Diaz is at Monte Carlo.
