Alleged Harboring Of Span
ish Subject Distasteful
to Leader.
U. S. IS INTERESTED
Commander of Battleship
Delaware to Take Min
ister of Spain,

XNTAsHINGTON, Feb 11.-Jose
w Caro-. Spanish minister to Mex
leo, has been summanly expelled from
Mexico by General Carranza, Tonight
he was believed to be on his way to
Vera Cruz, where the American bat
tleship Delaware lies in the harbor
with instructions to offer him ref
uge
News that the minister had been
given "a hours from last midnight to
leave Mexico because he is alleged to
have sheltered Angel De Case, a
Spanish subject, accused OF aiding
Villa, came to the state department
late today. After hurried conferences
between Secretary Bryan and the
Spanish and Brazilian ambassadors
here. Secretary Daniels of the navy
cabled Captain Rogers of the Della
ware to take Minister Caro- on board
and await orders. Consul Canada at
Vera Cruz was directed to give the
minister every assistance.
When Minister Caro- received Car
ranZa's notice he Immediately pre-
pared to start to Vera Cruz, expecting
to sail for Havana to await instruc-
tions from his government An
American warship will take him to
Cuba unless a merchant ship bound
that way puts in at Vera Cruz within
q day or two.
While CarranZa's note explained to
the minister that no offcnse was in
tended against the Spanish govern
ment or people, the right of asylum
to nationals Of a foreign government
is a long -establish rule and the de-
portation of a diplomat for granting
this right, ii was suggested in diplo-
matte circles here tonight, might re-
suit in serious complications.
Neither Secretary Bryan nor Mr..
Riano, the Spanish ambassador here,
would comment upon the incident. In
official circles ii was intimated that,
while the American government prob
ably would hold that the expulsion of
the minister was matter between
Spain and CarranZa, it might be the
subject of q note from Washington TO
CarranZa pointing out the conse-
quences liable to follow such actions.
The entire diplomatic corps at the
Mexican capital has been in a state
of unrest on account of conditions
there and the uncertainty of COM
munication with the outside world.
Some diplomats already have sug
gested that they be withdrawn.
A copy of CarranZa note to the
Spanish minister ordering him to
quit Mexico reached the state de-
partment today. 1t fOllws.
'The assistance which, taking ad
vantage Of the character you say you
have of Spanish minister, you have
given to Case hiding him in your le-

DISPUTE IN WAGE
HEARING OF R. R,
Sought to Prove That Hod
Carriers Are Better Paid
Than Firemen.
Charles f. Nagel Principal
Witness in Arbitration
Yesterday.

CHICAGO, Feb. 11-Charlos F..
Nagel, former secretary Of commerce
and labor and one OF the arbitrators
considering wage demands OF western
railroad engineers and hremen, today
took exception to the manner in which
w. S. Carter, president OF the fire
mems brotherhood, undertook to get
into the record evidence that hod car
riers wages were preferable TO those
demanded by the enginemen.
MIR. Carter had been pressing J. w.
Higgins general manager Of the Mis-
souri, Pacific, for an opinion as to the
railroads willingness TO exchange the
entire wage and working conditions
proposition of the men for the hod
carrier contract of an eight-hOur day
with time and a half for overtime.
The witness was wary and finally Mr..
Carter said
III you committed yourself TO the
proposition your firemen would be
knocking at your door asking for the
exchange and you couldn't afford TO
give it to them"
Are you authorized to speak for
the lremen and make this offer?"
asked Mr. Nagel.
NO SIR" replied Mr., Carter II
Gm saying that / know they would do
50 If the opportunity presented itself
You are not on the stand, Mr.. Car
ter, and II doesn't seem to me quite
fair for you to press this witness 20
an answer which you correspondingly
can't make Mr.. Nagel said.
Hod Carriers Better Paid.
IF YOU are authorized TO say that
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men and Enginemen would accept the
wages of hod carriers. l for one,
would be interested to know IT, If not,
a mere statement can hardly be per-
suasive"
Mr. Carter said the statement was
merely his personal opinion, because
he knew that the liremen would ac-
cept rs per cent increases in wages
and that was what the proposition
meant.
The exchange occurred while Jeter
.C. Prichard, chairman Of the board,
was absent from the room and Mr..
Nagel was acting chairman. After
the return OF Judge Pritchard Mr..
Nagel explained that he intended to
rule only that it was not proper to
interject opinion Of counsel into the
Questioning Of a witness.
Mr. Higgins testimony was COM
pleted Just before adjournment. In
the cross examination he said that
engineers and firemen would have to
give up their present guarantees for
a minimum day il they wished time
and a half for overtime, computed on
an hourly basis. He argued that they
frequently are paid 100 miles or 10
hours, when their service measured
by time IS less than i've hours and are
paid for two days work on some long
runs that are completed within the
limits OF a single working day meas
ured by hours

at Vera Cruz, where he has announced
that he will await further instruc-
tions from his government
1t is not believed here tonight that
Carranza's action would be followed
by the immediate retirement OF the
remaining diplomatic body there,
Though IT has been reported that
generally they deeply resent the treat
ment accorded their colleague, it is
believed they will subordinate this to
the urgent demand for their pres
ence in the Mexican capital to look
after the lives and property Of their
nationals during the present crisis.
1t was recalled by the state depart
ment officials that General Castro,
when president of Venezuela, simi-
larly expelled the French minister
from the country without affecting
his formal relations with the other
diplomatic representatives., though
the i'll feeling there by engendered
undoubtedly preCipitated the down
fall Of the ruler.
Angel De Case is very well known
in Washington having paid several
visits TO the city. He consulted with
officials here regarding the conditions
in Mexico, upon which he was re-
Earded as an authority by reason Of
his long residence there and his large
pecuniary interests. IT is known that
he has been acting as a confidential
agent for the Spanish minister in his
communications with General Villa,
so that his relations correspond to
those existing between George c.
Crothers and the state department
here.
Secretary Bryan Cabled TO Consul
Canada at Vera Cruz tonight to render
all aid possible to the Spanish min
lister.
Mr.. Bryan declined to comment on
the incident.
1t was understood in official circles,
however, that the matter was regarded
IS one to be settled between Spain
and the CarranZa government. The
United States, it was said, had en-
TlOyed every means at its disposal to
prevent friction between the diplo-
matte corps at Mexico City and the
constitutiOnallst officers.
Juan RiauO, the Spanish ambassa-
dor here said he had received no in
formation through official sources con-
cernIng Carranza's action and until
that was available he could not fore
cast what action, If any, would be
taken by his government.
