that he be tried legally for his muir

signed by l09 members OF the society
The resolutions follow:
Whereas this association had been
an ardent supporter Of Gen. Huerta up to
the time OF his usurpat,cn of the rights
of the duly elected Congress OF Mexico
and the Imprisonment of many Congress
men for no reason except n tyrannical
one, and, as Is we'll known to President

Huerta prior to such usurpaton; and

tablished after the recognition of the

execution. the State Department declines
to state that II Is giving full credencc 70
the rebel leaders story.
Though the state Department 10 officially
quiescent pending the receipt OF mail re-
ports expected from Its representatives
at Juarez and FL Paso tomorrow or
Wednesday. definite results Of the Benton
killing are already discernible In high
quarters The attitude OF faith and hope
fulness formerly maintained toward villa
as the active leader Of the Constitu-
tionailst forces in the field has about dis
appeared.
Huerts Has Protected Foreigners.
The refusal Of the wilson Administra-
ton TO accept In the slightest degree
the Official explanations of the death Of
Niadero In already being brought UP as
a bar against acceptance Of Villas story
regarding Benton. II Is pointed out that
while neither has any high reputation
for moral character and truthfulness.
Huerta, regardless Of how he may have
treated his own people has certainly pro-
tected foreigners In the territory over
which ne exercises control, whereas ever
since he came into prominence villa has
been the object OF circumstances from
the United States regarding his treatment
of foreigners.
Among tne tntUlDeTS OF tne l'lplotilHtlc
Corps one may hear In Washington to-day
very plain language Many OF the foreign
representatives point to the Benton case
with an IT told you So Indicating their
belief that the matter has brought the
United States nearer the act OF interven-
ton, which they have for many months
regarded as inevitable. In these quarters
the suggestion that the belllgerency OF
villa be recognized by the United States
IL received with hands uplifted In horror.
Such n step. II is said. would be to
plunge the United States more hopelessly
than ever into a tangle from which It
would find 1t difficult to extricate Itself
with honor. Those who nre not believers
In Intervention in Mexico by the United
States, and they are in the minority, are
OF the opinion that the time has come
for the Wilson Administration to reverse
itself In It's Mexican policy. They advo-
cate the recognition OF Huerta with as
surances that on certain conditions the
United States will give him every aid In
restoring order in Mexico. These diplo-
mats point out that In Huerta's territory
foreigners are protected and that for a
year he has maintained a government
despite all the disbursements the United
States was able to put in his way.
