FORMER VENEZUELAN PREsI-
DENTS HABEAs CORPUS Ac-
TloN is UPHELD.

New York, Feb. 15.-Cipriano cas-

federal district court this afternoon,

Venezuelan president on the ground
that he was an undesirable in that
he refused to answer certain Ques-
tions concerning the internal affairs
Of Venezuela and the murder of Gem
eral Paradez, a political opponent.
The special board Of inquiry at FL
lis Island first refused him admit
tance, decision which was affirmed
by the department of commerce and
lagor. General Castro then carried
his case into the courts.
"That is fine" he cried. Il am vim
dicated." His lawyer s1sd that Cas-
tro had not made up his mind just
what he would do now lie may or
may not visit other cities in the

Washington, Feb. l5.-The clash
between Director John Barrett OF
the Pan-American Union and the state
department over Barrett's proposal
for mediation commission" to
bring about peace in Mexico, is nard-
" less a sensation IN official circies
here than the Mexican imbroglio it.

The state departments memoran-
dunn last night, characterizing Direc
tor Barrett's proposar as mischiev-
GUS activity, sentimentality and ANA
teur politics" dropped into official
circles like a bomb. Coupled wit
the protest of the America colony
in Mexico City, forwarded by AmDas-
sador Wilson, it produced a situation
startling, to say the least.
Director Barrett today gave out
statement defending his mediation
proposal He said he honestly be-
lieved that his action would strength

against Intervention.
ITO brand as amateur politics, the
suggestion of mediation by a great
and accepted broad and practical
agency of international friendship and

sentimentality the application of in

together, are anxious to bring about

States troops, and consequently are
angry with me for presenting a per
fectiy feasible plan for immediate
cessation Of hostilities by interna-
tional mediation, and have seized
upon me and my simple, informal

SENATE HOLDS A SESSION
OPINION EXPRESSED is THAT
THE HEAD OF THE GOVERN
MENT SHOULD QUIT.
DIAz OPPOSED TO ARMISTICE
DECLARES HE WILL NOT AGREE
UNTIL HIS RIVAL is DE-
POSED FDoM OFFICE.

Mexico City, Feb. 15.-An open de-
claration by Mexican senators that
American troops were coming to the
Mexican capital and that Intervention
was inevitable.
Refusal of President Madero to re-
sign, even when the majority of the
senate sought him at the national
palace to urge him to DO so.
Resumption OF the artillery battle
in the streets, without decisive ad-
vantage to either sioe.
Refusal of Felix Diaz to consider
an armistice until Madero and his
cabinet have resigned.
Report is current that Madero forces
We running short Of ammunition.
These were the Developments OF
the day in the revolt in the Mexican
capital. Following an erroneous
statement last night that Maiero had
resigned in the interest of peace and
to prevent further bloodshed, this
morning found practically no change
in the situation. Madero declared
that he had not resigned and had
no intention of doing so.
An unsuccessful attempt to ar
range an armistice with Diax was
followed by an executive session Of
as many senators as could be per
suaded to risk their lives by leaving
their homes. At the close Of the sen.
ate, a majority of senators made up
a delegation which attempted to IN
terview the president and urge him
to resign, but Madero was not to be
found.
From their carriage the senators
then made addresses to the public.
One Of them declared:
President Taft has just tele-
graphed the British minister that
American troops are coming to the
Mexican capital. We consider inter
vention inevitable"
They also told the people that they
considered Madero defeated.
Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson
and Pedro Lascurain, the Mexican
foreign minister, were in conference
for several hours during the night.
Their efforts to arrange an armistiee
were in vain, however Diaz, the
rebel leader, refused absolutely to
hear of peace until President Madero
and his cabinet had resigned,
Diaz's firmness in this respect was
indicated By the activity of his gun
ners. who continued the lombard
ment at intervals during the night
and after dawn increased their fire
until it was more violent tnan at any
previous stage OF the seven days
fighting.
Most Of those in Mexico City who
know President Madero's constaney
Of purpose and stubbornness were
pessimistie today regarding his res
ignation. Others, however, believed
he would yield to the persistent de-
mand made by men high in public
life.
Francisco de la Barra, the former
provisional president, playei the
part Of peacemaker today and prom
ises to become as notable in this cris-
is as he was in the adjustment OF the
differences Of the Madero revolution
which terminated in the overthrow
Of Porfirio Diaz.
