DALLAS, Tex., June 9.—Dallas has
its second murder mystery within a
week. The two crimes offer a paral-
lel that mystifies the police. A few
days ago H. C. Harned, a Llano stock-
man, aged 70, was killed by being
crushed in the head, and his body
partly burned. The crime occurred in
a lonely suburb of the city.
This morning the body of Thomas
Goff, aged 70, was found in a smell
creek near the northern edge of the
city. His head was crushed in. Gorr
was a carpenter and a pioneer re-
dent of Dallas. He had been missing
since Sunday, when he started on a
fishing trip.
The manner in which both victims
were murdered now leads the police
to believe that a negro assassin or
some maniac is at large.

Rumors that have been floating
around Washington that she was en-

positiveness by Miss Wilson herself
this afternoon when seen in this city
shortly after visiting the office of her
physician.
"There is absolutely no truth in the
report that I am engaged to anyone,"
she said. “That is merely baseless
gossip."

WASHINGTON. Jun© 9—John
Lind, who acted as President Wilson’s
special representative to Mexico, and
who since his return to this country
has been the special representative of
the State Department in dealing with
the Constitutionalist agents in Wash-
ington. left here tonight for his home
in Minnesota
Explanatory of his departure. Gov-
ernor Lind said:
"I do not feel that there is any
longer any necessity for giving my en-
tire time to the Government and I
asked the President to allow me to
leave for my home, in order that I
may give atteniton to ray personal af-
fairs.
"My request was granted
"Of course I will remain subject to
the call of the President or the Sec-
retary of State, and if at any time
either of them think I will be of as-
sistance I will return to Washington.
I do not contemplate any such neces-
sity. I think my absence from the
capital will be permanent."
Lind's retirement from further par-
ticipation in the administration’s deal-
ing with the Mexican situation, in
which he has been its chief adviser
is interpreted to mean that mediation
is expected to be a long drawn out
proceeding.
Comprehensive Summary.
Today for the first time, a clear and
comprehensive summary of the ad-
ministration's position in the media-
i tion negotiations was obtained. IX

actUtat© the admission of the rebel
nvoys.
The Americans are said to have em-
phasized the point that Carranza’s
proclamation of himself as the pro-
visional president of Mexico has
greatly strengthened his position.
Carranza was now a power that had
to be reckoned with.
In their desire for the pacification
of Mexico, the mediators said theyt
would allow the United States to as-
sume the entire responsibility of
bringing the revolutionist leader to
terms.
‘ It has been the intention of the me-
diators to make public the corre-
spondence between themselves and
the rebel chieftain, but at the request
of the Americans they decided to wait
until they received Carranza’s note.
Discass the Counter Plan.
The mediators discussed with the
Americans both the American plan
and also the counter plan of the Mex-
icans for the reorganization of Mexi-
can affairs.
| - A tentative agreement was reached
on these points:
1. That if Huerta agrees to the es-
tablishment of a stable government
the United States would not insist
upon a war indemnity.
2. That the proposed provisional
government will assume all debts and
- their obligations incurred by the
i Huerta regime with other nations.
8. That the provisional government
shall guarantee the personal safety
and property rights of Huerta offi-
cials and' supporters and grant a gen-
eral amnesty to all factions.
4. The full details of the land re-
form questton shall be left to the new
government for solution.
5. That the five officials who head
the provisional government shall be
men whose records commit them to
the execution of these reforma
6. That Vera Cruz would be evac-
uated by the Americans as soon as a
permanent government is established
that is found to be proof against fac-
tional revolt.
