HUERTA "STRONG- FARMING"
 CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES
One hundred and Ten Members Ar
 rested for Signing Resolution.

Mexico City. Oct. 1O-One hundred and ten members of the chamber of deputies who had signed resolutions of warning to President Efuerta as the result of the disappearance of Dr. Bel 1sario Dominguez, senator for Chiapas, last night, were arrested tonight and lodged in the penitentiary. Five other deputies who signed the resolution were absent tonight when a cOrdon of troops was tbrown about the legisla- tive building and several hundred sol diers invaded the chamber.
 The arrests followed a demand by President Huerta that the chamber withdraw the resolution which carried the threat that the deputies would abandon the capital owing to an al legged lack of guarantees for their per sOnal safety.
 Senator DomingueZ early in the month made a speech in the senate violently attacking Huerta, saying that not only had nothing been done dur ing Huerta's regime toward the paci- fcatiOn of the country but that the present situation in the republic WAS infinitely worse than before. He said the currency of Mexico had depreci- ated. fields had been neglected and towns razed and that famine threat ened. He added that this situation was due first and foremost to the fact that the Mexican people could not resign themselves to be governed by Huerta.
 In anticipation of pOssibl etrouble. heavy patrols of troops are on the streets tonight The rapid fire guns which were placed in the interior courts of the palace in February are again in place and quantities of am munitiOn are at hand
