Support Given by Newspaper Comment-Financial Prob lem Is Again a Seriously
 Disturbing Factor in Capital

MEXICO CITY, March 7-Abandon- ment of the proposed plan to estat. fish a Federal Bank through which the government could issue its own cur rency was discussed today at the pal ace The idea, it is said. met the op- position Of Adolfo de Lama, minister of finance. Antagonism toward it by the regular banks was undisguised
 The announced intention 10 estab- fish the Federal bank was one reason for the high rate of exchange which prevailed today, although there was some evidence that the increase was artificial
 The National Bank was one of the heaviest buyers of exchange.
 Light fighting to the north and west of Torreon was reported to the war department today by General velasco. who claimed he had repulsed the enemy in both directions
 Supporting the rumor that Presi. dent Huerta intends temporarily leay- ing the presidency to assume com. mand of division of the army, is the attitude of Gil Bias. the Spanish newspaper, which today devoted much space to discussing such action by the executive.

LAREDO, Texas. March 7.-(Spe- cial) )-Friends and relatives of Gle mente Vergara, the Texas ranchman killed by Mexican Federals, have started an inquiry into the killing in addition 10 the investigations being conducted by the United States gov ernment and the Texas authorities. Reports from Hidalgo, where Vergara was taken by orders of Captain Apol- ono Rodriguez. seem to indicate an act of desecration on the body. Yer gara was executed by shooting, and many believe that subsequent hanging of the body and its abandonment to the elements were final act of hu- initiation toward the ranchman, who has protested when his horses were stolen.

Although the Uniied states govern ment has demanded a full and satis. factory explanation of the killing Americans along the border are not hopeful that Vergara's slayers will be identified and punished by Huerta. It is a we'll known fact that the Mexican government exercises little restraint over the isolated bands of Federal troops.
 Governor Colquitt has asked the State department at Washington whether the United States recognizes any constituted government in northern Mexico with whom be might arrange for the eXtradition of those whom he believes responsible for Vergara's death.
