Washington, Oct. 2S.-The flight of Felix Diaz to the United States Gunboat Wheeling last night at Vera Cruz seemed today for while to have boded immediate action by the United States.
 Secretary Bryan at once sent word to Admiral Fletcher that without question Diaz had the right of asylum on board an American Jsevvel. There is mo question that it had been de termined to resist the surrender o1 Diaz if request had come from Huerta or any other authority in Mexico. N
 The United States does not sur' render political refuges. The ques' tion was simpified by the receipt ot news,s unofficially however, that Mexico would not insist on the sur render of Diaz, but was content te rebuke him for having fled without permission from the Mexican wal office.
 It is not known whether Diaz will return to Havana or how long he will remain a guest of the American squadron. The State Department is sued statement today to the eff. feet that Puebla and San Luis Postosi and other sections indicate a landslide for Huerta. As to Ciudat Porfiro, Felix Diaz is in the lead.
 Official returns of Sundays cleo tion were given out tonight by Minister of Gobernabion Aldape They show that the Huerta-Blanque ticket carried the states of Palaxcala Jalisco, Guerrero, Mexico, Guanta Juapo. Campeche, Chiapas, Morelos and Qucretero.
 Esquival Obregon has been ap pointed minister of Hatienda.

'DEADL0CkED ON
 CURRENCY BILL Senate Committee Reaches on Agreement After Seven
 Hours of Debate
YIELD TO PRESIDENT
Senators O'GOrman and Reed Aban. don Central Bank Plan-AdOpt
 Vandership Ideas.

Washington, Oct. 2S.-After seven hours of discussion on the two plans for either a central bank controlled by the government or the regional reserve bank plan, contained ill the administration financial bill, the Senate Committee on Banking and Currency adjourned this evening
 deadlocked
 No vote was taken, but the inter change of opinion indicated decided views of the members. Senators O'Gorman and Reed, Democrats, yielded to the President and abandon ed the central bank plan for the regional provision of the pending bill with certain notifications that will include some of the features of the Vanderlip proposition.
 The committee stood six to six. Those favoring the government own- ed central bank, where Senators Nell son, Bristow, Crawford, Mclean and Weeks, Republicans and Hitchcock Democrat.
 The six Democrats wno opposed the central bank were Owen, Oi'.r- man, Reed, Pomerine, Shafroth and Hollis. Senators Hollis and Weexs were absent but paired. The effort will be made tomorrow to settle the fundamental principle upon which the remainder of the measure de- pends. 1t is practically certain that the regional plan will be adopted and that ], Senator Hitchcock. after emphasizing his position, will :, over to the rest of his party of colleagues.
 The influence of the President and the knowledge that the Fl3us. will not accept 2. central oank plan, even if owned and managed by the gov ernment, it was admitted this even- ing by senators who have been ure- ing the Vanderlip idea, has killed the central bank proposition. It was claimed tonight, however, that a number of the features suggested by Mir. Vanderlip will be written i2;o the senate bill and applied to the regional system. Government con trol in a much more effective form than is now found in the aimiI;atra- tion measure is assured

Fifteen Guards Are Killed and Strikers Wounded :;
 In 3-Hour Fight ;,
SOLDIERS ARE MOVING
1000 Were Sent To Colorado Strike Zone With Orders To Disarm
 Strikers. |

Trinidad, Oct 2S.-According to a courier who arrived here this even- ing, fifteen mine guards were killed and three strikers were wounded in the battle this morning at Hastings and Berwind, near Ludlow. The shooting began at 6 o'clock with more than 1,2OO armed miners in the field. The miners, the courier stat- ed, surrounded the tents occupied by the guards and began pouring g steady rifle fire into them. Tho bodies of the dead guards are said to have been removed to Ludlow. In some quarters the authenticity of tha
 report is questioned, but 1t has nevertheless caused great excitement
 in Trinidad.
 While this report cannot yet be confirmed, it is definitely known that
 one mine guard is dead and three
 strikers and two children wounded as
 result of three hours fighting along Berwind canyon early today. Anthony McGarry. an organizer ot
 the United Mine Workers of America,
 gave out "a signed statement declar- ing that in the opening skirmish fif- toen guards had been killed and one striker slightly wounded. McGarry said the guards and strikers met at close range and that the party of company men were entirely wiped out.
 Angus Mcdonald, who Is known to have been killed, was shot to death at the Tabasco coke oven. The names of the other men injured have not been given out Telephone wires are down and little except actual battle news is being received. Terror reigns in and around all camps in the vicinity of Hastings and Trinidad. Fifteen hundred strikers are entrenched in the hills around Ludlow and desultory firing is going on constantly.
 Tonight 1000 militiamen are camp. ed in the strike zone and clash is feared when enforcement of the governors order to disarm the
 strikers Is attempted.
