The diplomatic gallery, however,
was nOticeably vacant throughout the
morning as were the two sections re-
served for the presidents family and
their friends. Cabinet members and
their wives were absent until just be-
fore the hour for conveninE.
Members attributed this apparent
lack of interest in the historic events
expected Of the day, on the part OF

would ratify the action of the foreign
relations committee in eliminating
the personality of Gen. HuNta from

VERA CRUZ. April 21.-.President
Huerta will resist the landing Of
American marines here. This was
assured today when Gen. Gustavo
Mas received orders from Mexico
City 10 establish a strong force on
the islands lying in front of Vera
Cruz.
The Mexican commander Of the
port Immediately complied and
large portion of the troops recently
sent here from the capital were sent
out in boats under the cover of dark
ness of early morning. The boats all
carried machine guns and ammuni-
ton.
There was an attitude of excited
tension at the L. s. consulate and at
Gen. Mass headquarters. Ii was ap-
parent that the first clash was ex-
peCted today All merchant vessels

Rear Admiral Fletcher to clear at

Protect Consulate.
Fearing that the crisis between
Mexico and the L. 5. would result i'm
an outbreak against the American
consul, William Canada, or his aides,
/ Gen. Mas sent a squad Of policemen
TO the consulate early in the day.
| When asked for the reason of his
action, he said:
/ President Huerta has ordered
every precautiOn taken TO prevent
any Americans being tnsulted or at
tackled. We intend to obey his or
ders."
What action viii be taken il
American marines are landed" he
was asked.
Events will show" the Mexican
commander replied.
The orders from Mexico City 10
resist the landing Of American ma
rines came as a surprise to Gen.
Mas who early last evening had re-
ceived instructions that if a large
American force was landed he should
! proceed with his troops imm ediately

AS the senate had already met for

Lodge Begins Speech.
Amid impressive silence Senator
Lodge began his speech.
In a situation such as now con-
fronts congress- he said. lit is we'll
to remember that the responsibility
of the senate is greater than that OF
any other branch of the government.
War can be made only by the senate
and the house. Peace can be declar-
ed only by the senate and the house.
Neither peace nor war can be made
except with the assent Of the senate.
The power TO declare war is vested
by the constitution in congress alone.
The president alone can institute
negotiations for peace. The Weap-
Ons OF diplomacy are his alone. But
when we come to the threshold OF a
war that power is vested in congress.
I am aware that the president
has more power under the COnstit-
ution dealing with the present Situa-
tiOn than he has seen INT 10 exercise.
but he has come TO US TO ask our
support. ] think he was right 10 do
so. ! am sure he would not want to
expose himself to the Indictment ut
tered by Webster when he said: NO

Polk made it
"Once before during my term OF
service in congress a president trans
mitted a request that he be en-
powered to conduct foreign war. At
that time resolutions were duly pre-
sented in both houses. were referred

and were reported out and were
passed after debate"
Does the senator know how long
it took to do all that" inquired Sen
ator Williams Of Mississippi.
