Already Measure Adopted on Tuesday by the House Has Been Received and Referred to Committee in Higher Branch
FIGHT REALLY
 ONLY COMMENCED
Senator Jones of Washing ton Charges That No Serious Problems Face Country Except Those Arising from Mistakes
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHl

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The ad- mlnistration bill to repeal the canal tolls exemption, which passed the house yesterday amid spectacular scenes, reached the senate today and was referred to the committee on in ter-oceanic canals without debate. The committee will meet on Tuesday.
 Senator Owen of Oklahoma, who lead the exemption fight in the com mittee, conferred with the president. and later announced that friends of the repeal bill will not submit to unnecessary delay. It is certain there will be a persistent effort to amend the house bill The senate majority favoring the repeal is esti- mated at from two to twenty-four.
 Senator Owen said that public hearings in the senate committee are unnecessary, because the issue is clean cut and every senator under stands; the only reason for public hearings would be a deliberate at tempt to cause delay. Friends of the repeal assert that nothing but a flat repeal of toll exemption will be accepted, and in this they claim a safe majority.
 Senator Norris, of Nebraska, intro- duced a resolution which would pro- vide for arbitration of the treaty dis pute of the tolls controversy and Senator Poindexter presented anoth- CT. that provided for postponement of consideration of the tolls issue until President Wilson submits details, in confidence if he chooses, as to the foreign relations that would be af- fected by the. toll exemption repeal. No action was taken on either reso- lution.
 Senator Jones. of Washington, charged that no serious problems faced the United States except those arising from the mistakes of the administration.
 These mistakes could have been avoided if congress had been taken into the confidence of the chief ex- ecutive." he said.
 The resolution might show that taking advantage of the situation our diplomacy has gotten us into with relation to Mexico. Great Britain is eXacting this as part of her price for her assistance in extricating our selves from the embarrass ments of our own making. We will stand by the president in his treatment of the Mexican situation, whether We be- lieve he is taking the wise course or not, but we will not buy England's assistance at any price or the as- sistance of any other nation ..

BLUE BELL MINE SUIT |STHROWN

Court of Appeal Dismisses Suit of Chas $. Hinch-
 man for $900,000 on the Ground That Money Was
 to Be Paid from Profits
TAssocrArED PRESS p1spArcrl

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH
 BOSTON, April The suit of Chas. s. Hinchman of Philadelphia. against the Consolidated Arizona Smelling company to recover $900,000 alleged due on the purchase price of the Blue Bell mines was dismissed by the United States court of appeals today. Judge Brown held that the S900,000 was not part of the purchase price, but the amount agreed on between the parties previous to the bankruptcy proceedings, which is expected to be collected from the profits of the mine.
 Judge Aldrick filed dissenting opin- ion The suit grew out of an agree ment between John L. Elliott of New York and the company in 1906, by the terms under which the company paid $1000000 down and agreed to pay 25 per cent of the net profits until the amount reached the additional $900.- 900.
 The Blue Bell mine mentioned in this despatch is situated in Yavapai county near Humboldt, and is chiefly famous for the twelve mile swinging tramway that is a part of the equip ment of the company. The mine has many times given evidences of being immensely rich, but it also became in volved in the copper fight staged by Thomas w. Lawson and promptly the company went bankrupt Charles w. Morse another frenzied financier also had a hand in the affairs of the com pany.
 The property has on it reduction works well situated for commercial business, as well as a smelter of 1000 tons capacity. The present owners of the company it is understood have nothing to do with the frenzied finan- ciers and is operated properly

The Last Information Given Out is Battle is Proceed ing in a So-called Canyon Named Huarache, City's' Southern Exit
FEDERAL POSITION
 WELL FORTIFIED
General Villa Sends Word He Has Not Yet Taken Torreon, But That Por- tion of City Has, Already Been Captured
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIspATcHl


 J U A R EZ, A pril 1. Heavy fighting is in prog ress at Torreon, according to a thousand word report received by General Car ranza from Villa. The last information given out was to the effect. that the heav- jest fighting is proceeding in the so-called canyon named Huarache, the south ern railroad exit of the city. It is reported that General Joaquin Maas, with federal endorsements, who had been reported at Saltillo, is making a circuit south to join the Velasco forces at Iltldfdcllc.
 The canyon is said to be in reality a sort of basin formed by the proximity Of three mountains, one of which is Cerro De La Cruz. Through the basin two rail- roads run. It is said to be one of the most strongly for tified of the federal posi- tions, and it is said the rebels are meeting umex- pected and stubborn resist ance.
 Whether the rebel forces under General Herrera, sent to intercept Maas, have been engaged is not known, ac- cording to Villas report. The rebels have cut the rall- road between San Luis Pc tosi and Aguas Calientes. This is three hundred miles south of TorreOn, and IS sad to indicate the activity of another column of rebels ln- tent on hindering the move ment of the federals.
 At four o'clock reports that Tor reon had fallen were definitely Killed bv the receipt of a denial direct from Villa. His telegram. based on a message of congratulation on the fall of Torreon'' from Colonel Fidella Aviiia yesterday reads:
 Tn reply to your message wish to state that while we have taken part os the city of Torreon, the struggle is rot vet completed. We expect to ob- tain complete triumph, of which We will advise you"
 Details of the struggle received were brief and showed the relative positions of the contending forces to be little changed in the last five days Whether the forces of General Haas, marching to the relief of the feGerals at Torreon. have yet en- gagged that of General Herrera, sent to meet him, is not nnown. No con : frnation has been received of the rumor that trainoad of soldiers under General Maas wae blown up by dynamite mines
