 WASHINGTON, March 9.-Specific Americans and other foreigners have been killed, murdered or outraged dur ing the last three years of the reVolu- tion in Mexico, were laid before the senate by Senator Fall of New Mexico, in the course of a speech urging armed intervention, for the protection of non combatants. and assailing the admin istration's policy Falls list gave the names, dates and circumstances gath cred from his own sources.
 The senator charged that Villa for years has been stealing cattle in MeXi- co, and shipping them for sale in the United States. He said Villa held up an American company which owned a shipment of $4O,OOO bullion and with that started out to establish a pro- visional government in Mexico.
 If Huerta is a murderer. he is at least murderer on a grand scale villa is a common, ignorant and brutal murderer for hire, and is now being romanced about in the press
 Fall said that Villa obtained $700,0O0 in loot at the Madero siege of Juarez, and was sent to prison for it, but es- caped
 "I believe the American people can be left to handle any critical condition provided they are informed on the sub ject. l am not one who believes, when the press is full of reports of outrages and details of Mexican horrors, that Il can be incompatible with the public interest to send to the senate details of outrages upon American citizens. am not one who believes that the con- stitution should be pushed aside to let one man assume the executive legis- lative power of the government.
 Senator Shively, replying as acting chairman of the foreign relations com nittee asserted that Senator Falls policy would mean actual armed in tervention and that intervention meant war. He deplored that the situation , hal thus been discussed in the oper senate. declaring that it would have { harmful influence upon the attitude and temper of the people in Mexico.
 NO one doubts what intervention means Senator Shively said, "'Th' senator from New Mexico has not sug gested any power in Mexico with whicf could be surrounded efforts to restOr, peace.
 If a composition of the difficulty i. available by watching and waiting thu people of the United States could havt q grievance against their goVergment if it should start now to muster an( march camp to the battlefield. Tn government is eXerting it's energies t work out solution without precipi tating war and all that war means After all We have listened to, I put i to you if a practical solution has beel suggested. Because the senator ha seen fit to leave the situation in thi way, does not furnish a reason why w should resort to the remedy suggested The very description he has given O Mexico repels the idea that it is al easy way out of the difficulty. O course, the situation in Mexico is re grettable. Whatever problems came t this administration in that difficulty were inherited.
 IhoSe who are reSponSiDle Tor. Ou foreign policy are doing all that can b done. They are not swift to rush t arms: they are men who think an weigh facts before they commit us | them. l repel the motion expresse today, that the department of state an the president are neglecting any dut that involves the peace and welfare c the country
