people of Vera Cruz were paying last
honors to the memory of young Cap
tain Azueta, who was killed while de-
Tending the naval school here on
April 81.
There are descriptions Of both cere-
monies side by side in the papers to-
day. the more martial oratory Of those
who spoke at Azueta's grave contrast
ing with President Wilson's solemn
sense OF responsibility and hope that
war might yet be avoided.
An editorial in one of the papers,
however, protests against the theory
that such useless sacrifices as that OF
young Azueta are demanded by the
country. The country, it says, is not
an Aztec idol demanding suicides and
blood.
The paper asks the people to live in
their century and stop immortalizing
the past, with its injustice and crime,
of which Azueta was a victim, and
points out the ironic uselessness Of a
death which could not hinder in the
least what was dictated only By a
badly interpreted notion Of national
honor-a death at which Voltaire would
have broken into his loudest and most
sinister laughter.
Azueta was a man Of good family
and education. He was promoted to
captaincy for his work in defence OF
Vera Cruz, and his new cap and epau
lettes were born on his coffin to the

Juarez, Mexico, May 12.-Despite tho
claim Of rebel leaders that Generals
Villa and Carranza are In perfect ac-
cord reports from Torreon indicate
that relations are greatly strained be-

open break will be averted only BY the

FUNSTON HELD UP
in PARKS DEMAND
Army Furious as Administration
Delays Ultimatum Concerning
Soldier Executed.
From The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, May 12.-Information o.
through official channels to Washing
ton, completely confirms The Tribune's
report that Private Parks, OF the 18th
Infantry, who, while presumably in
sane, wandered off with two horses
into the Mexican lines, was ruthlessly
executed without the semblance Of a
military trial. despite the fact that he
was in uniform. II is assumed that
the government here will make a
vigorous protest.
Brigadier General Funston is known
to be indignant and fighting mad. II
is said that a few days ago, immedi-
ately after Parks left the American
lines and when it was reported that
he was prisoner in the hands of the
Mexicans, General Funston recon-
mended 10 the War Department that
he make a peremptory demand on
General Mas for the surrender of the
man and horses. General Funston was

appears that he was not permitted TO
make his demands.
From information at hand II seems
that Parks went into the enemy's lines
in full uniform with no attempt to
conceal his identity. General Funston
believes he was insane. In any event
he could not, under military law, be
treated as a spy.
Representations undoubtedly Will be
made to the Huerta government. prob
ably with a demand that those re-
sponsible for the execution of Parks
be punished. The War Department,
however, is still seeking more definite
information, although that already re-
ceived indicates that Parks was shot
without Formally. 1t is rule OF
civilized warfare that all prisoners be
given some sort of trial.
