Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson's con-
ference yesterday with members of the

Mexico than he has received at any time
since reaching Washington

clared a member Of the Senate committee.
Suggests Huerta Invite q. S. Troops.
That John Bassett Moore, counselor
for the State Department. or some
other official of this government should
be sent to Mexico to suggest to President
Huerta that he invite American troops to
enter Mexico for the purpose of aiding
in putting down the revolt in northern
Mexico was a suggestion made today by
Senator Pittman of Nevada.
"In any event." said Senator Pittman.
"I believe that American troops should
be sent into northern Mexico 10 pring
II would be better for this country to act
now rather than to wait until it must
act or allow foreign nations to intervene
in Mexico.
ern senators hold the same opinion as do
l." he concluded.
Ambassadors Plan Impresses.
After a three-hour questioning of the
ambassador, many members Of the Sen
ate committee expressed the opinion
that serious consideration should be
given to his recommendation for a
guarded and restricted recognition OF
Huerta, designed to bolster up the pres
ent government until election can be
held, October 26.
The determination Of the governments

wavered in their determination not to
recognize the Huerta government at
Senate committee by the ambassador

dent and Secretary of State, and their
attitude against recognition had been
based on information from other con-

The conference at the Capitol was dis

tiny and tentative approval given his re-
port by many members of the commit

be urged to furnish the Senate committee
at once with its private information
gathered by William Bayard Hale, Regi-
nald H. Del Vale, and by consular agents
at various points.
Two principal points of difference have
been developed between Ambassador Will

MILITARY SECRETS
OF GERMANY SOLD
Officers Admit Disclosure of
Vital Facts to Krupp
Representatives.
RECEIVED SMALL SUMS
IN RETURN, TRIAL SHOWS
Information Betrayed of Highest
Importance to Foreign
Powers.

BERLIN, July 31.-The sensational
disclosures of corruption in the Ger
man army made by DR.. Karl Lieb-
knecht, the socialist deputy, in the i'm
perial parliament April Is. came up to-
day when a court-martial convened to
try the military officers charged with
accepting bribes for information on
pending government contracts for arms
and ammunition.
Four officers Of the ordnance depart
ment were brought before the judges.
They were Lieuts. lillian, Hinst. Hoge
and Schleuder. to whom was intrusted
the supervision of many of the am
niunition and arms contracts at various
arsenals and factories throughout Ger
many. Chief Clerk Pfeiffer and two
Of the commissioned officers of the
ordnance corps also were in the pris-
oners' inclosure.
Charges Corruption.
1t had been charged by DR.. Lieb-
knecht that corruption and bribery
on the part of munition companies
was prevalent and that there was an
organized scheme for raising war
scares and thus causing the govern
inents.
The civilian offenders who include the
alleged briber on behalf of the ordnance
companies, and also the directors or
those concerns, will come before an >ordi-
nary criminal court at a later date.
1t was decided by the president Of the
court martial to permit the admission of
twenty reporters to the tiny courtroom.
and these and few high military OFF,
GERS formed the audience. Contrary to
the usual custom at court-martlal, the
trial was held with open doors. but re-
porters and others not officially present
were excluded during the reading of the
confidential reports and other papers
seized from krupps' representatives and
containing information illegitimately OBJ
tanned and of vital interest to the ma
ti0nal defense.
Accused in Uniform.
The accused officers appeared in full
uniform and wearing decorations on their
breasts.
The formal charge against the prison
ers was the betrayal of military
secrets. the acceptance OF bribes and
The accused. although
admitting tn. communication OF secret
information to the Krupps. protested
that this had been done without GRIM
inal intent, since they believed there
were no secrets between the German
government and Krupps.
The accused officers were the first to
be called to the witness stand. They
admitted under cross-examination that
the information betrayed by them to
the Krupps' representatives would have
been of the highest Importance II it
had reached foreign powers
The early testimony indicated that
the accused had acted rather out OF
good fellowship to Krupps' representa-
tives than on account OF the compare
lively small sums received by them and
nothing new or particularly sensation
al was evoked during their examina-
ton.

Senator Nelson asked the witness about
a statement in the World that he had
spent 100000 in bribing voters and lobby
work Mulhall said he couldn't tell now
just how much he had spent and that
500, 600 must be a mistake. He admitted
that he kept two separate sets of &C
counts, but swore that the ones he kept
himself were like those turned over to
the committee.
The lawyers wanted to know If the total
of his expenditures was not about $4AOOO.
Mulhall said he did not know II that
amount was right.
Questioned by Senator Reed, he said
that he raised money when he was CAM
paigning throughout the country, which
would not appear in his accounts.
Pressed closely, however he said that
only in the Watson campaign in Indiana

in the campaign in the district of the late

Building Inspector Norris Hacker to-
