ALL MEXICO CITY
 PRIESTS ExILED
Conditions in the Capital Cause
 the Greatest Concern
PERSECUTE HOMELESS NUNS
Mgr Mora, Spokesman for 100 Refu- gees Reaching New Orleans, Says No Church Institution Remains
 Open-Ail Being Sacked.

New Orleans. La.-More than 100 refugees arrived here on the steam ship Texas from Vera Cruz. Nearly all were from Mexico City having fled from the capital eight days before.
 In the party were six nuns and eight priests These were met by the Right Rev Jose Mora del Rio, Archbishop of Mexico who reached here with party of churchmen several days ago. All fled without baggage and say they are thankful they escaped with their lives. The churchmen have been quar- tered in the chapel of the Ursuline Convent here,
 Mgr Mora, Father Raynoso Vicar Capitular of Ineretaro, and Father Vinegas, pastor of the Cathedral of Mexico, acted as interpreters and gave out the stories of the nuns and priests. His Grace said:
 Every priest in Mexico City and surrounding territory has been ex- pened or put in prison. Not church or institution remains open. and near ly all of them have been sacked or desecrated. Our priests have been robbed and at the point of guns driven from their sanctuaries.
 "The soldiers left nothing of value. These sisters and nuns are homeless and made their way to Vera Cruz with the greatest hardships. They feel that they would be sealing the death warrant of those still in Mexico if they went into details of the horrors that our men and women have been subjected to-"
 Felix Laeunas, reported 10 be prominent. once wealthy American, who arrived on the Texas. says:
 ''We left Mexico City eight days ago. when the city was in the throes of a workable reign of terror Scores of Mexicans of prominence have been put to death in the past few weeks, most of them without trial. Hundreds of others were crowded like rats in the famous Belem Prison and the peni. tentiary.
 Among the prisoners were more than 800 native Catholic priests, who were thrown into jail on the orders of Gen. obregon and held for s50o00o ransom. Every foreign Catholic priest in the capital has been ex. pelied from the country after the military authorities had eonfiscated all of the church property found. Ev. cry church. convent school, hospital or other institution conducted by the Catholic Church has been closed and pillaged l-s the troops"

SLAUGHTER OF

New Haven.-The thlrty-six head Of cattle on the farm Of 0. k. Newton In Woodbridge found by Federal In. spector Dr C. J. Becker to be in feeted with the foot and mouth di sease were slaughtered. The inspec. tors fear they may find more cases of the disease In that vicinity, and will make thorough inspections for that purpose. It is impossible to tell In this case how the foot and mouth disease epHtad. because the history of the ease s negative The Newton place is enc mile from a farm where COWS we're tound diseased last De cember but tae history Of the case does net point 10 that place as the positive source The assumption Is that the Newtcn farm being close to the other farm. the e6niagion might have spread to it The ground since December has been frozen, but during the process Of thawing the animals passing from one farm to another may have tracked the germs of the disease. Animals are m all cases strong ear. riers of the disease and where ex- treme precautions are not taken may prove to he the most significant cources of contagion. The inspectors will redouble their efforts inspecting the farms in the vicinity of Wood. bridge and would not be In the least surprised if they should find other well-deyeloped cases.

 Continued by Joint Resolution

Washington-Th longest and mos. expensive Congress in the history of the United States is at an end. Twen- ty million words embalmed in the Con gressional Record, almost two years of continuous talk, that is the record of the 63d Congress, which expired by law. About S120 a word is what it has cost in actual appropriations, the rec ord for this session alone being Sl,- 120 0g0,0 900. The first session of the Congress authorized 6.000,000.
 The 63d Congress had been in ses- sion 542 days out of a possible 623. The record was unprecedented In the two years all but sl days were occupied with legislative work. In that time President Wilson sent to the Senate the nominations of 7,099 post masters. Of these the Senate con irmed all but 5S, the Senate rejected 1s and the President withdrew S9.
 The record of the last two weeks of the session for expediting business was remarkable. Only one general ap- propriation bill had passed the Senate up to February i9. Between that date and the adjournment general appro- priation bills wsre put through carry ing an aggregate of s900 .000,000
