 DUE IN WASHINGTON

Washington. March 10.-Genera1 Venustiano Carranza's reply to the American note demanding an i'm provement in tsintolerable'' conditions for foreigners in the territory under his control was expected to-day by President Wilson and his advisers. They had been informed unofficially that the draft of the reply had been completed and was ready to be for warded to Washington. It was ex- pected to. be favorable.
 In the meantime, precautionary steps had been taken by the Washing ton authorities looking to the safe guarding of American interests in M sxico.
 United States warships were hover ing close to the shores of Mexico to enforce. if necessary. compliance with the American demands and American citizens in Mexico City had been warned of the critical situation there.
 It was believed among officials that with the evacuation of Mexico City by the forces of General Obregon and the occu patton by Zapata's troops who are counted upon to afford prop CT police protection, the crisis soon would be passed without serious difh- c1Ity. s4s .

 With the police of Bridgeport working industrtousIy to locate the possi ble hiding place in this city or Peter Melba and Bernard Montvfd, now believed te have been the slayers fof Rev. Joseph zebris and his house. keeper at New Britain, last February, the two Lithuanians captured yester- adayTin rWi1nnington, Del, are under close guard in that city to prevent lynching for the murder of a police man.
 l Fol1ow1ng the discovery that the two men had been in various Connec- ticut cities subsequent to the brutal murder in New Britain, word was re- liceived by the police today from prf- s vate sources in Stamford which lead E in this city prior. to the crime and that a plot may have been Ratched here looking towards robbery in other cities, if-not murder.
 Hs Hfs Known that Bridgeport has one of the largest lithuanian populations f of the state and members of the de- I-tective department had already found clues upon which they were working when the two men were arrested yes- terday, tending to show that two men identical with the description furnish l ed by the New Britain police of the fugitives from justice had been seen ] in. West End saloon shortly before the crime
 The belief prevails that they were lodging in the South End. probably on Railroad avenue, South avenue or Main street. Six weeks ago a report of two men answering the descript on of Frl Zebris' murderers came to po- lice headquarters from a West End saloon, the name of which is today withheld by the authorities. It was asserted that these men fully armed and of a desperate character entered ] the saloon and first wanted to dis I pose of a quantity of goods, evidently loot from some robbery.

Gatelzeeper Describes Thaw's Dash for Liberty
 Through Gate

New York, Marca 1u#Although the prosecution had announced that they expected to complete today their case against Harry K Thaw, on trial. for conspiracy in. escaping from the Matteawan asylum. John B. Stanch- field, chief Of Thaw's counsel. said that he expected the present trial and the habeas corpus proceedings which may follow it will occupy fully six weeks
 The states attorneys claim victory in two legal skirmisf1es. In the first of these. Justice Page overruled ob- lection by ThaW's counsel to the in troduction as evidence of the conn nlitnent on which Thaw was first sent to the asylum MT Stan chfieI has scontended that this commitment was illegal and that therefore Thaw had. 2 legal right to escape from the asylum,
 The other ruling was the court s refusal to admit evidence given by 8 witness that since his commitment Thaw has appeared to be rational, ThaW had stiff neck and a bad cold when lie came into court today It became known that his attorneys had made an attempt last night to have their client taken to Bellevue hospital from the Tonbs. Such a. move was opposed by the prosecution
 and Justice Page decided that Thaw could secure what medical attention
 he needed in the Tombs. ss s ks The first witness today was How ard BsLrnu1n gate keeper at Mattea- wan BaruJlIn# told of opening the gate to admit a, mdlknan- He de-
 scrfbed Thaw's actions just previous to that and said when the wagon
 entered Thaw managed to get on the
 side farthest from the witness. Bar nuns story Of how Tha.w dashed
 through the gate and Jumped into an autonaobilea outside which sped away in a cloud of dust was identica1 with the one he told the police on the day ThaW fled.
 On cross-exaIndnation the witness said he knew Thaw well and had talked with him hundreds Of times. After the witness had been asked | by John B. Stanchfeld, chief of
 Thaw's legal staff, whether he vas
 s1bew4ldered' when he saw Thaw
 dash away and the witness answer MT Stanehfield said Well, is if
 your opinion then, that as to you and l Thaw, you were the more crazy at
 that time2'' An objection sby the
 prosecution was upheld while the spectators reared with laughter At that point Charles J. Wander

 objection by the defense to lntroduc- ing commitment papers and records
