MEXICO CITY, Feb. IA twenty four hour truce which had beoH agreed upon by both sides has been broken and war has once more opered as fiercely as ever. The Madero snd Diaz forces have started this morn ing as freshly as if they were only just beginning. There seems now to be no earthly chance of peace until one side or the other is defeated and the thought of what will follow defeat is enough to make people shudder. The fine city has been torn and smash ed and is evidently only at the be- ginning of its troubles. So bitter are the passions of the combatants that a massacre will almost surely succeed the real fighting.
The Nome daily nugget., 1913-02-17

inet official announced at twelve o'clock last night that the United States will not interfere in the inter necine struggle which is now raging in Mexico City.
 The cabinet was called by the president in the evening to discuss the matter thoroughly and to de?ide once for all what steps the Unite States should take
 The discussion went on for hours and all sides of the question we're taken up. No detailed account of what happened was given out until it was all over and then came the aU- nouncement that American troops will not be sent at present to invade the Mexican republic.

Especial to The Richmond virginian.)
STAUNTON, VA, Dec. 15.--Charges
of vote buying by the wholesale were
made here today in the local option
campaign, the "drys'' alleging that the
"wets' have been disbursing large
sums among the negro voters to carry
the election, which will be held here
tomorrow.
The temperance forces base their
charges on Investigations made by a
number OF Washington and Pennsyi-
vania detectives. whom they have had
at work here for some time, and the
leaders state that they will ask a
special grand jury investigation.
Three thousand dollars. according
to the detectives, was contributed to
the local whfskey mems fund by the
great liquor association of the coun-
try. Only small sums were being
distributed before the election. the
larger amounts, 1t is claimed, being
held over until after the election to
insure the good faith" OF the cor

wet, the money Is to he disbursed.
A reliable forecast OF the result of
the election tomorrow Is impossible.
Both sides are claiming the victory.

section deals with the organization
and control of the regional banks.
Only one Democratic senator voted

Wilson Orders Investigation of

at Dinner of Cardiac So
ciety.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l5.-The
army and navy officers received a
severe Jolt this afternoon, when they
were informed that President Wilson
had ordered an investigation into the
recent dinner here of the Carabao
society. This society is composed of
army. navy. and marine officers. who
were In the PHILIPPINES during the
days OF the military government OF
the island. They have a dinner once
y year.
This year the burlesques and satires
hit the policies OF the present adj
ministration towards the Philippines,
and particularly Secretary Bryan's
activities US an apostle of peace. That
LIS what has rufrled the temper Of
President Wilson, and his advisers.
and has led TO the order for an in
vestigaion.
The president considers it highly
improper for officers of the army and
navy to give expression to such a
lack of sympathy with the administra-
ton policies, or to reflect on individual
members of the cabinet In such way
as was indicated in the published re-
ports Of the proceedings at the dinner
last Thursday night.

The Cardiac song and the skits
directed against Secretary Bryan
seemed to be the two features Of the
program that have aroused the re-
sentiment of Democratic officials. The
song ran like this:

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE Wilson

the de facto authority in control Of
the immediate locality where he main
tains his headquarters. but also ~ the
head of the revolution in Mexico, and
som uch of a government as the con-

This was indicated here this after

regarding the excuses which General

such action. recognizing Carranxa -

by the administration.
Secretary Bryan said that on several
other occasions he had brought cer-
tain matters concerning events In Mex

Hucrta and Carranxa.
BY these proceedings the Wilson ad-'
ministration has put Carranza and the
eonstitutionalst movement on practte
cally the same basis as President
Huerta and the federal government.
The administration does not recognise
Huerta as the head of government,
but only az the de facto authority In
control of a certain portion of Mex-
lean territory, and holding subordf-
nate to himself authorities in various
localities. The communications with
Carranza have accorded him practi.
caliy the same thing. These communi-s
cations have been carried on through
Consul Louis Hostetter, OF Hermoailio.
