ham and John Bassett Moore, and as
reported by naval officers and other
visitors, the sentiment Is decidedly
anti.Ameriean, SO much so that the
sympathy is for Mexico, despite the
continual reign Of terror in that eoun-
try.
Possibly because Of the rapproaeh-
ment evident between Great Britain
and the United States, an hostility to-
wards America is TO be detected in
press and semi-official utterances in
Germany. The recent revival of the
Dewey Manila Bay controversy, brought
up in the Reichstag moro than year
after the Dewey biography had been is
sued and made topic of heated denial
and denuneiation, is case in point.
Japanese Situation Unchanged.
The Japanese situation. is just what
IL was several months ago. There has
been no known action on the part Of
the state department to either meet the
demands Of the Japanese state depart
mcnt or TO remove the causes that made
those demands possible. There has
been i marking OF time on the part of
Secretary bryan, with growing i'm
patience on the part Of the Japanese
people. IL would be regarded as qliite
proper automatically for Japan to take
advantage OF any diiiieulty the United
States may have in Mexico aud press
for her own wishes in tbe way Of new
treaty covering immigration, nahIralf-
zation and the right to hold property.
Altogether, a view around the inter
national horizon must fail TO be reas-
turing 10 American statesmen and
those entrusted with the handling Of
Anoricn 3 foreign policies.
Those supporting the present policy
Of repeal of the Canal Tolls Act say
that by that single act tho Administers
tion win at ono stroke clear tho decks
for the better adjustment Of the gov
eminent y controversies with other

committee ON naval affairs before which
body he appeared MS the senior member
OF the general board owing TO the ill,
ness Of Admiral Dewey. The admiral
Of the navy, however, has passed the
age when he is able to devote much
time or attention to the many problems
which come before the board and for
the past two years this burden has
fallen on the shoulders of Admiral Vree-
land.
The retiring admiral is one Of the
three officers now remaining on the ac-
tive list who had service in the Civil
War, and one Of the two officers of
flag rank In the navy who served al

prentice for three months and ten days,

the naval academy in 1866. Five years
later he became an ensign and reached
the grade Of captain in 1906.
His first cruise after leaving the
naval academy was on the old Congress,
and later he served in all parts Of the
world, being naval attache at Vienna
and Rome from June, 1893, to until
December, 1896. He was lieutenant

Spain and commanded the Kansas in
the trip of the battleship fleet around

tion ON the general board in Washing

slCRIfGED HUNDRED
men TO SAVE ARMY

ZAPATA, Texas, March 26. Assoc
ciated Press by Federal wireless)
Not knowing that they were being sac
rifeed. in order to make possible the
safe retreat Of the main federal army,.
one hundred federals made a gallant
stand in Mondays battle at Guerrero,
Coahuila, holding of the Constitutional
ist army Of three thousand for three
hours. Those of the hundred who sur
yived the fighting were executed by
the revolutionists after their surrender.
Such IL the story brought here by
federal sergeant, who escaped to the
American side Of the line after Mon
days battle. General Guardiola, he
reports, who commanded the federals,
saw little hope for successful opposi
ton 20 the rebels advance and feared
that his whole command would be en-
trapped IL he remained at Guerrero and
offered defense. He therefore re-.
solved TO draw of his men, totalling
twelve hundred, but first ordered de-
taehment of one hundred mon to take
up positions on the housctops 10 harass
the cncmy's approach. The men were
given TO understand that they were
simply to check the advance until the
main garrison could get into position
for battle.
The detachment took its place and
from the housetops kept up CALLING
and accurate FIRE. In the meantime
General Guariliola ordered a retreat,
giving the fighting hundred no intima.

fate. For three hours the handful
fought, until, their Ammunition was
exhausted, they sent for reinforc ements.

President wilson's personal efforts to
effect the passage by congress Of tho
bill repeating the clause Of the Panama
Canal Act exempting American ships
engaged in eoastwisc trade from pay
ment Of tolls seems to have served to
revive the reports that international
complications will ensue IL the measure
is NOT promptly enacted. According to
reports from Washington, the impress.
sion is growing in official circles that
uneasiness over the attitude Of Japan
towards the United States is the cause
of the Presidents concern over the
Panama Canal Bill. outwardly the
administration seems bent on gaining
the good will Of Great Britain.
In this connection it is pointed out
that, as an ally Of Japan, Great Brit
ain exercises large influence over the
Far Eastern Powers. In urging con-
gress to repeal the exemption clause it
is the growing belief that the admins
tration has an eye to the future.

Fears Complications.

According to the Eastern papers,
members of congress who have been
called into conference at the White
House are responsible for the statement
that the President fears trouble with
other nations unless the tolls eontro-
versy is disposed Of by the repeal Of
the exemption clause.
The President, at the time he read
hrs message, emphatically indicated to
callers that there was nothing critical
in sny situation confronting the United
States and that he had in mind only
the desirability Of removing the i'm
precision among foreign governments
that the United States was seeking to
evade its just obligations.
II has commonly been inferred, de-
spite the White House statements that
no particular situation except the tolls
controversy itself was in the Presi-
dents mind when he addressed con
gress, that the situation in Mexico was
really responsible for the impressive
language he used on that occasion

(Associated Press by Federal wircless)
That General Villa and his army
have been signally defented at Toreon
and are now in full retreat towards
Juarcz, with the victorious Federals
pounding the fleeing troops, is the iubi-
liant report Issued Iast night from the
war department, based on Official re-
ports from the front.
The news is given general credence
here and there is rejoicing in the city,
the belief of the popblaee being that
the smashing Of the main rebel army
means the breaking of tho back Of the
revolution and the insurance of safety
from another period Of street lighting
in tho capital.
Unexpected Reinforcements.

Villa made his main attack on the Tor
rcon defenses yesterday, throwing his
supreme strength into the effort, The
Federal garrison had been heavily re-
inforced, however, by the unexpected
arrival of eight thousand men from
Saltiilo, which gave General Velascas
superior force and enabled him TO
meet the attack by counter attack.
The rebels were sharply repealed, their
retreat growing into practically a rout
as the Velascas forces pushed home
thor advantage.i
The Federals are following close upon

troops.

among members of congress, according
TO report, that when the President said
that be would not know how to deal
with problems of greater delicaey and
nearer consequences he was thinking
OF the Mexican problem the United
States has on its hands
That the administration wishes to be
sure Of one strong friend in case of
more serious trouble in Mexico is tho
growing belief. II has been pointed out
70 his callers by the President that
the United States occupies an isolated
position Internationally.
The disposition Of the canal tolls
controversy by repeal will please not
only Great Britain but other maritime
nations as we'll All the European
Powers have an interest in the canal
almost identical with Great Britain,
but could not, of course, protest against
the law exempting American vessels
from tolls, as Great Britain is the only
nation having a treaty on the subject.

ally, Great Britain, would be invaluable
~ Great Britain could then be counted
upon TO dissuade Japan from hostilties
against the United States.
In answer to this. however, it is as,
serted that Great Britain has already
admitted herself helpless as far as
Mexico is concerned and that the inter.
ests Of the British government and is
colonies are such as to compel them ID
support the United States as against
her ally, Japan. Those opposing. the
repeal ask why the United States should
