Senator Piatt and Governor Odell held a conference at the Fifth Avenue hotel today and It Is expected that some formal state ment will be given out by them later on.

Those who do not return and refuse to trust to the mercy of the Imperial govern ment will be pursued and thtlr homes de stroyed tn the most severe fashion.
