Washington. May 5.-General Funston

Funston reports that he visited the TEAR

Army officers take little pains to conceal
their impotence over the orders which

at least 1000 more men TO Vera Cruz TO
take care of the town II General Funston
should be forced TO move inland against
the Federals.
As it is, the army is forbidden TO take
any steps The orders from Washington
are that Funston shall not move his
troops out OF the zone already occupied.
The commanding general cannot even
send out appropriate scouting expeditions.
His army is deficient in mounts and ami

SENATORS OPPOSE
FAVORS TO VILLA
Lipbitt Wants President to Affirm
or Deny Assistance to the
Rebel General.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, May 1.-THE disapproba-
ton with which some Senators contem-
plate the apparent friendliness Of the ad-
minstration for Pancho Villa found ex-
preston to-day in resolution introduced
by Senator Lippitt calling on the Presi-
dent for an affirmation or denial Of the
report that the administration is prepared
to assist the rebel leader 10 become the
next President Of Mexico. The resolution
went over until tomorrow.
Senator Lodge. in the face Of objections
from the Democratic side Of the chamber,
read into "The Record an article from
Il London newspaper in which Villa was
portrayed as a murderer Of men and as
sailant Of women and one given to the
preparation OF unmentonable atrocities.
81 do not believe" said Senator Lodge.
that this reflects upon the State Depart
ment. because ] presume that Villa is not
in any way connected with us officially"
Bitterness OF feeling prevails among
Republican Senators against what is re-
garded as the extraordinary and undue
friendliness Of the administration for
Villa. and there is some fear that his
ascendancy will result in further murder
and bloodshed. On the Democratic side
the hope prevails among some Senators
that villa Will develop into tho strong
man Of Mexico and will lead the republic
from the wilderness OF its present diff
culties.
That American citizens who melted or
encouraged revolutions in Mexico were
guilty of treason was asserted in the
House to-day by Representative Madden,
an Illinois Republican. who said:
There should be law enacted 10 pun
ish men who form themselves into juntas
advocating measures which may lead this
nation into war or trouble. II is nothing
more nor less than treason for men Of the
type Of those who have their headquarters
in the Hibbs Building in this city. and in
New York and other cities, to create con-
Gitions which have brought on the trouble
row prevailing between this country and
Mexico. Such persons ought TO be pun
ished for treason.
mo citizen Of the United States should
be allowed to go unpublished If he identi-
fes himself with any measure or move
ment for the advocacy of a war between
this country and any other country. l
hope law will be enacted declaring trea-
sonable such practices as have been in
dulged in by men OF the tuntas favoring
the different elements in ti'e Mexican i'm
brogio."

Must Consider All.

II is explained that while the media
tors appear to refer to the suspension
Of hostilities as indispensable" that
which they really consider ''indispen-
sable" is the inclusion Of "all the diff
culties which have contributed toward
the present situation in Mexico" and
that it was because CarranZa sought
70 exclude from their consideration all
questions save the immediate casus
belli between the United States and
Mexico that they felt it necessary con-
ditionally TO withdraw their invitation
to Carranza TO send delegates TO the
mediation conference.
AS was stated in these dispatches last
night, the sole effect Of such With
drawal, provided Carranza does not
reconsider his decision. will be 10 de-
prive him Of representatives at the
conference The mediators will pro-
coed. first, TO consult the representa-
tives of the United States and Of
Huerta. and then to formulate a plan
for the composure of the entire Mex
lean situation. This plan will be laid
before Carranza as we'll IS before the
United States and Huerta.
The mediators. who are kept in
formed regarding the attitude OF Presi-
dent Huerta and the conditions in Mex
leo City by the Spanish Ambassador
there. are persuaded that there is no
danger of an attack by Federalist forces
on the American army az Vera Cruz.
although 1t is appreciated tlat lack of
discipline among Huerta's troops may
result, from time TO time. in skirmishes
between them and the American forces.
SO far as can be ascertained. Huerta
is doing his utmost TO observe not only
the letter but the spirit Of the armis-
tice between himself and the United
States. and is in every respect conduct
ing himself in a manner which is per-
fectly correct under the circumstances.
The skepticism which prevails among
other than the South American diplo-
mats regarding the success of the medi-
alton negotiations proceeds chiefly from
their belief that the United States is
more interested in promoting the sue
cession Of Huerta by villa than in the
accomplishment of permanent and
peaceful settlement of Mexico's difficult
ties. The mediators, however, refuse
TO listen TO any suggestion OF insincer-
ity of the administration in Washing
ton, and are working as earnestly 10
accomplish their purpose as If the air
here were not filled with such rumors
and the Secretary Of State had not or
dered the preparation Of a eulogistic
biography OF Villa.
The military heads are naturally .ap-
prehensive of some conflict and are
taking every precaution against COM
plete failure OF the mediation proceed
ings.
