pensated for Loss Of Life and
Property.

strong arraignment Of the govern
ment for Its failure to get redress for
injuries TO American citizens ana
property resulting ttOm the Mexican
war, Senator Fall OF New Mexico de-
clared in the senate today that this
country would not regain It's prestige
in Mexico in fifty years
He said China, Germany and other
countries had forced Mexico to make
restitution for damages. Thus far, he
said the United States had done moth
ing. He added that because of the
course of the state department the
people of Mexico believed this coun-
try is behind the Madero government
and that II was responsible for the
overthrow Of President Diaz.

knew all the facts" declared Senator
Fall. Not all the soldiers In the
country would be able to prevent the
crossing OF the border because OF the
Indignation that would be aroused
And yet nothing has been done to
relieve the most intolerable condition
that American citizens were ever fore
ed to undergo"
Senator Fall urged the adoption Of
the resolution instructing the war de-
partment to ascertain the extent of tho
damage caused by Mexican bullets
fired across the American line during
the engagements last year at Douglas,
Arizona. and FL Paso. He declared
the resolution did not go far enough.
He said there had been no word Of
protest from the American govern
ment although its citizens had been
killed, women outraged and over
$500 100000 worth Of property des-
troyed by MeXicans
He gave many illustrations and
much instruction Of Mexico. lie said
he had not taken the matter up with
the state department, saying the pres
dency and secretary Of state had been
apprised OF facts by others. He sa d
the state department had refused per-
sistently to make representations to
Mexico. but referred all claimants to
