FRIDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MAY 1, 1914.
A STEAMER IS
REPORTED SUING
[Continued From First Page]
Siberia Asks for Help
The Japanese navy department was
inclined to-night to discredit the re
' ports regarding pirates and expressed
the opinion that they were an outcome
of the recent looting of a British
steamer.
The first wireless message regarding
the disaster was received direct from
the Siberia early this morning at the
Japanese wireless station at Osezakai,
off the coast of Kiushiu Island. It
conveyed the information that the
steamer had met with an accident
and was in distress. This message was
mutilated and no further definite In
formation could be gleaned from it.
The plight of the Siberia was com
municated by wireless also to the
steamer Minnesota of the Great North
ern Steamship Company, which was
making her way to Nagasaki as well
as to the British cruiser Minotaur.

Mrs. Goodwin's. There were eight or

commission to require equal or special
reports from any corporation subject
to the act; to make public In infor
mation and to recommend needed leg

crews last night assembled thirteen
bodies at ttye foot of the shaft in mine
No. 5 of the New River Coal Company

of the 172 men who, it now seems cer
tain, lost their lives in the explosion

Constitutionalists Will
Not Declare Armistice,
Is General Belief
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C., May 1, With
the declaration of a truce between
Huerta an dthe United States govern
ment, interest centered to-day in
whether Carranza, the rebel chief,
would resolve himself into the keystone
of a diplomatic arch designed to
bridge the whole problem of the pa
cification of Mexico and its interna
tional .complications.
Huerta, it was announced, had ac
cepted proposals of the South Ameri
can envoys that hostilities between
his forces and those of the United
Staes cease. Secretary Bryan had in
formed the mediators that the Amer
ican government "took it for granted
there would be no hostilities during
the mediation proceedings."
