FROM MEXICO
Minister Wants to Know of Actions
of L. :. Consul.

Mexico City, April 21.-Francisco
De La Barra, Mexican foreign minis
ter it was stated today, has asked
for an explanation through the MeXi-
can embassy at Washington for the
conduct of Consul William Canada at
Vera Cruz who is alleged to have pre-
vented the arrest and removal from
Ward line steamer of DIR. Francisco
Vasquez Gomez.
1t is understood DIR. Francisco vas
quez Gomez, who was formerly minis
ter of education and at one time in
charge of the financing of the Ma
dero movement with headquarters at
Washington is alleged to have been
implicated in the Zapata rebellion, al
though his capture was sought by the
Mexican authorities on the basis of
civil charge. When the military auth
critics went on board the Ward liner
and demanded the delivery of Dr.
Gomez. Consul Canada refused to
permit it on the ground that the coun-
try was not under martial law, and
that only a warrant issued by COM
petent judge could be recognized.
Officials of the Mexican embassy
here said today they had not yet re-
ceived instructions from foreign Min
lister De La Barra to take up with the
state department the conduct of Con-
sui Canada at Vera Cruz, nor had
they made any representations of their
own initiative

POWERS OF u. S. COURT
Supreme Court Restrict Them in Cor
rection of Jury Verdicts.

Washington, April 21.-Federal ap-
peIlate court must no longer correct
the verdicts of juries when the ap-
'pellates believe insufficient evidence
has been introduced to support the
decisions five to four, the high court
today decided that such procedure
adopted by some courts to avoid new
trials and delays, was in. violation Oh
the seventh amendment to the con-
stitution.
The suit of Lillian F. Slocum OF
Pittsburg against the New York LlIe
company for $4,000 insurance on her
husbands life in which the circuit
court of appeals for the third circuit
set aside the verdict for Mrs. Slocum,
was sent back for retrial.
Justice Hughes dissented in Wig
orous opinion in which Justices
Holmes, Lurton and Pitney concurred.
The tremendous effect of this de-
cision," declared Justice Hughes, rs
not only to over turn the practice OF
federal courts in Pennsylvania from
following the state law, allowing APP
pellate courts to correct Verdicts with
out new trials. but it prevents con-
gress without an amendment to the
constitution to legislate so as to al
low federal courts to pass on the suf-
ficiency of evidence and correct the
error of iuries by deciding the facts
themselves thus saving the cost of new
trials

aid objected.
The gentleman objects, shouted Mr..
Mann, Ito printing a letter of Thomas
Jefferson, the putative father of De-
mocracy. Democrat doctrines have ev-
identity wandered far from those of the
days of our fathers
Doesn't the gentleman Think in
terrupted representative Bartlett of
Georgia. that it is Democrat heresay
to connect Jefferson with Hearst?'
You Democrats continued Mr..
Mann, ARE not afraid of Thomas JEFF
ferson, because he's dead but are
afraid of Mr. Hearst because he is
alive. Some day we will read in the
papers, l suppose of another reconcile
alton, in which Mr.. Hearst will figure.
But 1t will not be a real reconciliation.
1t viii be a Clark-Bryan reconciliation
A roar of applause came from the

cussion and the number of amend
ments is aiming to put the bill
through to passa ge as rapidly as pos
sible. A resolis ion offered in the
caucus would limit debate to eight leg
