DE Ia BARRA CONFIDENT
OF PEACEFUL SOLUTION.

Paris, March THE belief that
Mexico would emerge triumphant
from its present internal troubles ana
words of friendliness for the United
states of America, were expressed by
Francisco L. de Ia Barra. former pro-
visional president of Mexico. AT re-
ception given in his honor this after
noon by the Franco American COM
mttee. on behalf of the committee
Paul de Leroy Beaulieu. of the French
Institute, voiced the welcome to de
Ia Barra. He pointed out that Mexico
was the center OF Latin culture In
Central America. He said II was nat
uraI that the United States should
have an important influence on the
development Of Mexico but he said II
would be in the interest of the equi-
iipriuir of Mexico and that the Latin
character and originality of that
country would be maintained.
senior de Ia Barra. after paying
tribute to French genius, expressed
the opinion that the present revoiu-
tion in Mexico would cease, thanks
To the public opinion, which would
see that peace was a necessity for the
national life. He continued.
THE people of Mexico are capable
of supporting and enjoying "A healthy
strong democracy. The geographical
position of Mexico renders her posi-
ton delicate With a powerful and
rich republic as neighbor. she has
grave problems to study and 10
solve. But I especially want TO refer
here to the high sentiment OF justice
dominating the attitude towards us.
Of the people and The government of
the United States"

Colonel Stcevor, on advices received
from operatives of the departments
of state and justice, charac,erizes as
"a fictitious person." Is being hold NJ
the United States immigration station
pending instructions from the war
department.
The shipment detained by Colonel
Steever is one OF three which have
been made in two days, all of which
have occasioned the greatest concern
in Texas. on Tuesday a shipment or
200 rifles and $4,000 rounds of soft
nosed bullets was made. This was
manifested and passed by the customs
officers, acting, 1t Is said, under In
structions from Washington. Before
the shipment was allowed to pass
through Colonel Steever was Informed
Of the fact by Major Peter Murray,
commanding the troops at the santa
Fe bridge. 1t Is understood that
Colonel Steever admitted lack of au-
thority and. as the shipment had been
passed by the customs officials, II was
allowed to proceed.
The arms and ammunition were dis
tributed the next morning among the
men of the Vasqulsta army AT Juarez.
Yesterday a shipment of ten old mod
el Springfield rifles and 10000
rounds of ammunition was made,
This likewise was detained by the
United States military authorities, but
finally was released ON the advice OF
Colonel Steever.
The question of the transmission Of
arms and ammunition has been on
the tapis for more than a year, II haV-
ing arisen during the Madero revolu-
ton. II is understood that at that time
the customs officials here were adj
vised to allow all commodity ship
ments, whether munitions, clothing
or food, to pass. This course was
pursued and ii occasioned consider
able dssa tisfaction among the people
of Texas, especially the residents of

Now, that Juarez is occupied by the
Vasaustas in command of General
Antonio Rojas the question again has
arisen and there Is much comment
concerning the regulations governing
transmission of arms and ammuni-
ton.

That a broad investigation will be

company was considered by demo-
,rats of the house long before the
Lawrence outbreak.
The rules committee mas heen pro-
ceeding under two resolutions or IN
yestigation The first was introduced
by Representative Wilson, of Penn
sylyania, and called for an investiga-
tion Of strike conditions and the al
legged brutalities, which attended the
attempt to remove children from the
city; the other by Representative
Berger, the socialist member from
Wisconsin, directed a special inquiry
into strike conditions.
The hearings closed today after
s
Woolen Company had been heard.
Before their testimony was taken
Rev. Clark Carter a city missionary

the mill owners, was examined as TO
conditions in the city,
Are you in sympathy with child

mills is perfectly proper for chlldfeh

a statement declaring the description
of incidents at Lawrence were mis-
leading.

through warfare, which no one VINO
has not been there can appreciate,
he said There have been attacks
upon the houses of people who were
connected with the mills or refused to
strike. Their doors have been
broken down, windows broken
missiles have been thrown into the
rooms while persons lay asleey.
He gave compilation OF savings

the total savings to be $2l,loO,0Oo

showed that the foreign population Is
well represented IN the deposits of all
the banks.

Woolen Company at Lawrence, SUD-
mtted the pay sheets of employees,
who had testified before the commit
tee. In nearly every case the wages
compared approximately with the
amounts testified by the witnesses.
Austin =. Wade, cashier of the
Aver mill. told the committee that the
average weekly wage for men, women
and children in the mill the last
week before the strike was more than
$500.

wages given by the company in the
last ten years was 26 per cent.
