U. S.. DETERMINED DICTATOR
SHALL NOT ENTER MEXICO.
Agents Keep Aged Leader Under Sur
veillance-Re-arrest May Follow
E%xtradition Request.

Washington, July 6.-The United
States government is determined that
General Huerta shall not re-enter
Mexico from American territory while
he may constitute a factor for the dis
turbance of the political or military
situation in the southern republic.
BY just what mean General Huerta
is to be held has not been definitely
determined. At present he is at lib
erty on bond of $4,000, and will be
given a hearing on July IL, when the
department of justice will endeavor to
press its charge of violation of neutral
ity laws.
In the meantime, agents of the de-
partment are keeping Huerta under
surveillance and the military author
tiles on the border have been ordered
to prevent him from crossing into
Mexico.
Emphasis was laid In official quar-
tiers on the possible re-arrest OF Huer.
to as a result of the formal request
for extradition received from the VIII
la governor of the state of chihuahua.
Should the government fail to prove
in the next hearing that Huerta is
guilty OF violating American neutral
ity, or decide to withdraw it's charges,
high officials pointed out that he could
be re-arrested and held for 40 DAYS
without bail pending the receipt of
evidence from the Villa authorities.

Washington, July GA tremendous
explosion, believed to have been caus-
ed by some kind of bomb or Internal
machine, wrecked the public reception
room on the east side Of the capital
building shortly before midnight. No
one was injured.
Officials believe that the explosive
wal placed by a crank who desired to
create a sensation. Visitors were al
lowed in the during the day and
a timed machine might have been left
without attracting attention.
Superintendent Woods of the capitol
building, summoned by panic-stricken
watchmen, made a hurried investiga-
ton and then telephoned for an expert
OIL explosives. Until the expert has
made his report no official statement
concerning the incident will be made
public.
Doors Blown Open.
Part of the ceiling and side walls of
the room were shaken down, a huge
mirror and a crystal chandelier shat
tered, and the doors blown open. One
of the doors led into the Office of the
vice president and is said not to have
been opened in 40 years.
The building had been closed since
dark and there was no one in 1t but
the watchmen and telephone switch
board operators. Watchman Jones on
the floor below at the east entrance
said he was blown from his chair by
the explosion.
The report could be heard for a
great distance and in a few minutes a
crowd of excited people had gathered
on the east plaza. In the meantime
lights had been switched on and ex-
cited officials were rushing back and
forth on two floors of the great, build
ing.
Believed Work of Crank.
While some officials thought the ex-
plosion was the work of an %irresponsi-
BILE crank with no other end in view
than a sensation, others seriously sug.
gested that it might have been per-
petrated by a person desiring to dem
onstrate his disapproval of some of the
policies of the American government.
1t was apparent hat there was no in
tent to destroy life as it is generally
known that the is empty at night.
Some idea of the force of the blast
was gained by the discovery OF a chan
delier crystal into the connection links
of which a splinter of wood had been
driven.
