OPPOSE ACTION OF U. S.
Attitude of Nation Criticised by
Meeting in Boston,

BOSTON. April 15.-The attitude Of the
United States in regard to the Mexican
situation came in for criticism from well
known peace advocates in speeches before
the Twentieth Century Club here today.
Edwin D. Mead of the international
Peace Society said:
1T is none OF our business to take
sides Certainly we have no right to
make lot Of capitalists view the Amer
lean flag as their asset. l have lot OF
sympathy for the rebels and believe that
they are the subjects of a terrible out
rage"
DR.. Benjamin Trueblood. secretary OF
the International Peace Society, said:
These military demonstrations have
made the revolution and disorder in Mex
leo worse, and have brought it creeping
nearer and nearer to Texas. 1t has let
loose again the crazy nonsense about
Japan, and has created a deepened dis
trust among our neighbors in Canada.
II We adopt the principle of protecting
American capital. We shall drift into the
British imperialism and far worse"
Frank B. Sanbern, another speaker,
said II believe Secretary Knox, as we'll
as Gen. Wood, are in league in protect
ing capital wherever it goes at the ex-
pense of our democracy"

today when shown an Associated Press
dispatch from London stating that he
had made no report to the British ad-
miralty regarding telegraphic advices
that he had landed a party of marines
and q Maxim gun at San Quintin In
Mexican territory.
Il regard the affair as too insignia

to the British embassy In the City Of
Mexico. 1t is true that / landed marines

protect the lives and property Of Brit
tsh and American subjects. 1t was last
Tuesday that the so-called revolution
lists appeared before the town. All the
Mexican officials fed, leaving the place

EVIDENCES OF FIGHTING.
Attack on Federals Marching tt
Chihuahua.

CHIHUAHUA, Mex, April 15.-Confirm-
alton of the reports that serious fighting
was taking place in Santa Clara canyon,
about fifty miles to the northwest, was
received here today, when riderless horses
bearing evidences Of battle struggled
Into this city.
The conflict is supposed to have been
precipitated by insurrectos on force of
federals marching from Casas Grandes
TO Chihuahua with a body Of prisoners.
Whether the Americans in jail at Casas
Grandes since March were among the
prisoners guarded by the federals is un-
known. The American prisoners have
been expected here for more than
week.
1t is known they were to be shackled
together and put in front of the federals
as protection" and so insurrectos would
not fire.
A force Of 500 federals marched from
here to assist in the struggle.
The horses which struggled in today
carried empty saddles. which had been
shot into. thus indicating the advance Of
this force had been contested.
