Several Spaniards," says the tele-
gram, "have arrived here from Torre-

the Federals was due to the inapi-
tude of their leaders. The authori-
ties had more than sufficient resour-
ces to defend the city for long time.

after arrest in Piedras Negras,
Mexico on a charge of making sedit-

printed in the publication for which
he writes. Consul Blocker was in
strumental in securing his release,
which is said to have been conditional
on his departure from Mexico and a
promise that he would say nothing
further about the revolution.
'fMy opinion is that there can be
no constitutional election in Mexico
under existing circumstances" said
Senator Bacon, after a conference
with President Wilson at the White
House. The senator said he had not
discussed that phase with the Presl-
dent, but it was obvious that with the
arrest of the deputies and the dissolu-
ton of Congress no one would dare
take issue with Huerta and there can
be no expression Of the peoples will.

London, Oct. 13.-The last message
received by the Carmania from the
commander of the doomed steamship
Volturno before he abandoned the
burning vessel, was as follows:
"Canont something be done to help
us We must abandon the ship. Her
plates are buckling. Stand close, as
may have to Jump for it."
Captain Francis Inch handed this to
the wireless operator of the Volturno
just before he was driven out of his
room. by the flames. Shortly after
ward the Volturno was a raging fur
mace from funnel to forecastle.
The rescue of the only passenger
taken on board the Carmania, Walter
Trintepohl, German, was effected by
a gallant seaman of the Carmania's
crew. His name is HIGHWAY. When
he saw the efforts of those who were
trying to reach the man struggling in
the water from ladders hanging down
the ships side were useless he Owed
from the upper deck of the Carmania
and attached a lifeline to the exhaust
ed swimmer.
The British cruiser Donegal was
dispatched today to destroy the blaz-
ing Volturno.

Washington, Oct. 13.-There cannot
be a legal election in Mexico under

ton. This is the deliberate judgment
of the administration as expressed to-
view of the recent acts Of Huerta in

Officials here take the view that
there is no longer civil law in Mexico.
but that, even under those Circum
stances there is nothing to do but to
await the time when a valid election
can be held throughout the republic.
Persons with whom the president
talked today reflect as his view that
what has just taken place in Mexico
justifies his course ever since the time
he made demands on Huerta for a
free and fair election in Mexico.
There is no indication here at the
State Department or White House OF
any determination of the United
States to act co-jointly with foreign
nations either in restraining Huerta or
making any threats or representa-
tons.
An ambassador of one Of the lead
ing powers said today that there was
no warrant for the statement thai
there would be joint action by the
powers with the United States and
that his country had subsequently CIV
