Senator Fall Urges
Invasion to "Avoid War"

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Declar-
ing that Intervention in Mexico is the
only course open to the United States
in order to avoid war with that coun-
try or some other nation, Senator
Fall, of New Mexico, to-day in the
Senate tore off the Mexican lid" and
discussed without reservation what he
considers the duty of the United
States. He detailed 64 cases of muT-
der and other outrageous crimes by
Mexicans upon Americans which ne
personally has investigated.
After discussing the dut-' which the
United States owes in Mexico, to its
own citizens and to other countries,
Senator Fab said:
1--WE owe the duty to ourselves 20
avoid the imminent danger of con-
fiict with some other country growing
out of the conditions in Mexico and
our policy in dealing with that coun-
try. We owe a duty to the MexicRn
people themselves. and we owe a duty
to humanity which we can not escape.
Situation Grows Worse.
Il realize, Mr.. President and 10
one more fully, the consequences
which might ensue in taking the nee
essary step to discharge the duty to
which 1 have referred. To deter ac-

we're claiming at that time, and did
not know what bearing Quinn's visit
would have as evidence"
And here is a point that has been
talked about as much, probably, as
any other in the trial Again and
again it has been asked, "If Frank
was innocent of any misconduct. why
did not his lawyers cross examine the
character witnesses put on by the
State. who swore that his character
was bad?"
This Is what Leo Frank says him
self:
MY experience with Dalton, the
| first character witness against me.
| had given me and my attorneys fair
warning what to expect from the So
called character witnesses. Here was
| Ii man upon whom / never had laid
eyes before he took his seat in the
witness chair, and OF whom I had
never heard, and yet he swore SOL
emily TO acts and doings with me
that were utterly and absolutely un-
true and without the slightest foun-
dation.
MY lawyers decided that if they
cross examined these so-called char
acter witnesses against me, 1t would
merely be q way Of allowing these
hostile people to tell all they had
heard about me in the way of vile
slander-not what they knew. which
was nothing. Ny lawyers felt that
these witnesses had been loaded with
SANDERS about me Just for the pur
poses of cross examination. They did
not want to give them the chance to
repeat malicious tales against me
which they had no opportunity to in
Vestlgate or answer"
As to the terms prejudice" and
persecution" Frank asserts that the
prosecution of himself became perse-
cution from the moment of discovery
Of negro brute" with knowledge of
the crime, admitting that he wrote
the notes found beside the dead girls
body. after steadily denying that he
could write at ali. and finally. after
repeated Visits by detectives and the
Solicitor" inventing a "preposterous
and unbelievable tale" putting the
crime on the man previously arrested
IN order to save his own neck.
And as for prejudice" said Frank,
81 should say that the influence Of
prejudice was evident from the mo-
ment that it was sought to convict
me, at all costs. after it was shown
that another had fun opportunity to
commit the crime"

Texans Threaten to
"Kill the Greasers.

LAREDO. TEXAS, March 9.-Oper
threats to 'kill the greasers'' were
heard on the streets of Laredo to-day
following the discovery of proof that
| Clements Vergara. the American ranch
man, murdered by Mexican Federals
had been brutally tortured before death
ended his sufferings. The local au-
thorities fear that Mexicans living here
will be attacked tonight and citizens
OF the southern republic were warned
to Keep off the streets.
Vergara's body, following its recovery
from shallow grave in Hidalgo Gem
etery, lay on a slab in the local under
taking shop to-day. while Mrs. Nergara
wept over ii.
Until the body was brought here she
refused to give up hope that her hus-
band was still alive, and il was feared
that the shock will drive her insane.
The body Of Nergara itself gave evil
dence to prove that he had been tor
tured by fire and beatings This is the
evidence:
fractured skull and bruises all over
Charred fingers on the left hand;
Two bullet holes in the head and one
in the neck.
That cowboys from vergara's ranch
were the raiders who crossed the
employer was the general belief here.
Official denials from Captain John B.
Sanders set at rest rumors that Texas
Rangers had gone into Mexico.
Captain Sanders said that he had
been notified that the body could be
found on American soil near the Yer
CARA ranch, and had gone to the spnt
Indicated with his men and found the
remains.
There is little doubt, however, that
the men who recovered the body were
Americans. though the only clew by
which they can be traced is a shovel
with which they opened the grave.
This was left at the place Of h'lriai with
a card attached bearing the single

II was said that / gave one time

II, therefore, ] did not hesitate to say

Concerning the assertion of the
State that Frank was eager to get
Mrs. White out Of the factory, and
that he did not mention in his state
ment TO the police that Lemmie Quinn
had been in his office, he says:

her that She would have to go unless

AS to the visit OF Lemmle Quinn.

police, the matter simply had slipped

stance favorable to me AS soon as
Quinn referred to the fact himself,
