The fire started in a pile of waste
in the basement of a ) and 10 cent
store. which occupies the ground floor
of the building. 1t spread rapidly up
stairways and shut off escape There
were no fire escapes in the front of the
building, and the large number of dead

Officials View on Salute.

officials View on Salute.
Officials of the State and Navy Depart
ments are firm in their declaration ina.
there is no such thing as Simultaneous
salute. They say that even when Two
vessels of friendly nations meet the hrse
to salute fires in courtesy to the one nay :
ing the ranking officer aboard and that
the other replies When there Is aues-
tion of amende honorable for AN insult
to the flag the offending nation must
first salute and the other fres IN recos-
milton. but that there is nothing to recos-
nize by this courtesy between hauohs
until the offender has thus sal'iied.
Officials here were ready to acknoWi-
edge Huertas salute Of twenty-one guns
after it had been finished. with return
salute such as is prescribed in naval
custom and precedent. But to return
Huerta's salute gun for gun. they point
ed out, would make the apology value
less. officials described Huertas latest
move as an act to preserve his own
dignity before the Mexicans of that
part of the country under his control.
U. S. Not to Temporize.
Today's development confirmed the
fears of many officials who expected
that Huerta would equivocate again, but
tn, Washington government is de-
termined not to temporize any further
with the Huerta regime.
ANY intention of recalling any ships
of the fleet now bound to Tampico was
abandoned. and those close to the ad-
ministration assert that the Presidents
demand for unqualified apology will be
backed up with the big guns of the
navy.
In view of the continued uncertainty,
and as an indication of how serious the
President considers the Mexican situa-
tion he changed his plans to go to White
Sulphur Springs tonight.
Ambassador Jusserand of France, who
has taken prominent part in diplomatic
suasion to bring Huerta to recognize
that the United States is very much in
earnest in demanding the apology and in
determination to exact by arms, If neces-
sary, was in consultation for a long
time this morning with officials of the
State Department. He declined to dis
cuss the situation.
Question of Salute.
State Department officials and naval
officers today declared that a depart
mental regulation which forbids salute
"in honor of any nation or of any official
of any nation not formally recognized by
the government of the United States"
would not prevent an acknowledgment OF
the salute Huerta has promised to fire to
the American flag.

in person he would not be saluted.
Bryan Sends Dispatches.
Secretary Bryan left the cabinet while
it was in session to go to the State De-
partment and send some dispatches.
Il have received one message from,
Charge OShaughnessy and have sent one
in reply" he said.
After the cabinet adjourned others said
that a positive message had been sent
to Huerta stating that simultaneous
salute would not be acceptable to the
United States.
officials expressed the view that HuertA
has been listening to bad advice dur
ing the last twelve hours. and after ne
promised Mr.. 'Shaughnessy yesterday
that he would give the apology.
Those well informed declared that IL
within the next few hours Huerta did
not comply entirely, some announcement
of what definite steps would be taken to
compel his apology would be made here.
1t was learned that one of the causes
of Huerta's latest parley was a fear that
should he give the salute demanded the
American ship might not return it and
thus leave him in humiliated position.
1t was said that he would order the
salute If assured that the United States
would comply with the international
amenities and acknowledge it. Word
that the United States would acknowl-
edge his salute according to custom and
precedent went forward to Mexico City.
For Return of Salute.
Secretary Daniels explained today that
Immediately after the Tampico insult to
the uniform of the United States Navy
by the arrest of bluejackets he called
the naval general board into conference
and found that the members were unani-
mously of the opinion that the salute de-
manded by Admiral Mayo ought to be
returned even if only as an act Of
courtesy
Regarding the method of procedure il
Huerta withdraws from his position de-
manding simultaneous discharge OF
salutes, and if the national salute is given
to the flag by the federals and recognized
by a salute of the same number of guns
from United States battleship, officials
say the ceremony will be as follows:
As the offense against the flag took
place on land, the flag will be saiuted on
land. A large square of troops will be
drawn up about flagstaff, with de-
tachment parked to one side. The Mex
ican tricolors will be hauled down and
the Stars and Stripes run up. Then the
salute Of tYenty-oae guns will bA fred.

COOPER INDICTMENT
IS TO STAND ALONE
House Judiciary Committee Refuses
to Couple It With Wright
Impeachment.

Chairman Clayton of the House judici-
airy committee today wrote to District
Attorney Clarence Wilson to the effect
that the District attorney must use his
own judgment in reference to the indict
ment of Wade II. Cooper. and that the
court case against Cooper and the i'm
parchment charges against Justice
Daniel Thew Wright must not be tied
up in any way-the judiciary committee
in effect washing its hands of the serious
matter of deciding the rather perplexing
question.
Mr.. Wilson had written to Chairman
Clayton asking him whether it would in
terfere with the Impeachment case if he
went ahead with the Indictment against
Wade H. Cooper, who made the original
charges against Judge Wright.
Chairman Clayton's Letter.
Chairman Clayton sent Mr.. Wilson to-
day the following letter:
II laid your courteous letter before
the judiciary committee for its considera-
ton this morning. The committee has
directed me to inform you that the COM
mittee has adopted this resolution:
Resolved, That it is the judgment of
this committee that the chairman should
answer the letter or the district attorney
in reference to the Indictment of Mr..
Cooper by saying that the question in
volved in the lette.' is one for the eXer-
else of his own Judgment
Il think l may add that the committee
fully appreciates YOUR courtesy and your
desire to do the right thing
Wright Hearing Delayed.
The subcommittee of the House judci-
AIRY committee, appointed to make the in
qury into the Impeachment charges
against Judge Wright, will make a
thorough study of all precedents in
Impeachment cases before any date
for a hearing is scheduled. Chairman
Mccoy said today that it was absolutely
necessary to do this, as the rule of pro-
cedure is strict.
Representative Nelson Of Wisconsin,
the republican member of the subcom-
mittee. started today on a deep study
of the precedents as he learned that
in the Speer case objection was made
to the way the committee allowed coun-
sci to be introduced at some of the
preliminary hearings. it having been
determined that ironclad precedent pro-
hibited this.
