brother of the leader of the Mexican
revolution. In a signed statement to-

He characterized the fighting in
Yucatan and Tabasco as grave and
said that with the financial backing

army soon would be assembled at a
strategic point, (which no force that
General Daz could mobilize would

With reference to the provisional
arrest here twenty-seven days ago, of
Juan Sanchez Azcona. a journalist
and former member of the Mexican
congress, Senior Madero said that
Azcona had decided to remain in con-
finement until the end of the forty
days period during which he may be
detained under the extraditlon treaty
pending advices from the Diaz gov
ernment as to the exact charges
against him. His purpose was to test
"the sincerity Of the Mexican gov
ernment"
Senero Madero charged that the at
titude of the Diaz government In not
sending further evidence in the Az
coma ease after ordering his provis-
ionai arrest was merely Repetition
OF the Diax governments tactics for
the last three years in which Diaz
has by means of tclegraphic requests

Washington. Jan. S.--The bank

policy.
The opinions OF the court were an
nounced by Justice Holmes. He said
the main Qb5setie.1 to the laws was
that the assessment of banks by the
state In order to create fund to
guarantee deposits in other banks took
private property of one bank for the
private use of another without COM
pensatjon.
Justice Holmes admitted that there
might be taking of private pro-
perty without return to pay debts OF
a failing rival in business. but he said
there We're powerful considerations on
the other side of the question.
In the first place. he said, at IL
tablished by cases than an ulterior
advantage may justify compara-
lively insignificant taking of private
property for what, In its immediate
purpose Is private use.
1T would seem that there may he
other cases besides the everyday one

OF mutual protection Is sufficient COM
pensatlon for the sorreative burden
that II IL compelled to assume, At
least II we have case within the
reasonable exercise OF police power
as above explained, no more need be
said"
The justice then proceeded to justify
the laws under the police powers The
police powers, he said. may he put
forth In aid of what is sanctioned
by usage, or held by the prevailing
morality or strong and preponderant
opinion to be greatly and Immediately
necessary to the public welfare"
The laws came within this limit
he said.
