ACT UPON MEXICO
Senator Works Demands Considera-
ton of His Resolution Provid-
ing Intervention.

Senator Works. OF California, one of
the leading paciists of the Senate.
raised the Mexican question yesterday
in the Senate by directing attention
to a resolution he had introduced
some time ago providing for interven-
tion and defining the attitude and ex-
planning the purposes of the United
States in intervening.
The Senator from California, fail.
ing to get assurance from Chairman n
Stone. of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, that some action would be
taken to bring out the resolution, in
timated, that he might move soon to
relieve the committee and bring the
resolution directly before the Senate
for action.
ut seems that the time has come
when this matter should not be left
to the action of the Executive Depart
ment of the government, but that
some action should, be taken by Con-
gress," said Senator Works.
'I think II Is exceedingly important
II we are forced to enter Mexico that
we should do 1t under a declaration of
Congress as to what the purpose of
going into that country is, and what
intentions are so that not only the
people Of our own country, but the
people of other nations, may know
and understand what the purpose and
the object Of the United States are"

Mazatlan, Officer Reports

Advices received at the Navy Depart
ment yesterday from Commander Arthur
g. Kavanagh. commanding the United

Mexicans at Mazatlan fred without prov
ocauon on the American bluetackets. The
first shot was fired by Mexican customs
Official in uniform while the motor launch,
with the bluejackets aboard. was 100 yards
from the dock and returning toward ship.
Mexican soldiers then opened fire, and a
party OF Japanese Joined them in rtddling
the launch.
Acting under orders from Commander
Kavanagh, the Americans had arms con-
cealed in the launch and followed instruc-
tions in using them in self-defense.
Boatswain's Mate Laughter, who was
senior in the boat. ordered the fire return
ed and the Mexicans and japanese fed
in panic. Several OF the japanese were
wounded and are now reported in the hos

gravely wounded. Coxswain Sheets had
the skin barked from his fingers. Mazat-
Ian is reported Wild with excitement and
practically every Mexican there is armed.

Bar Harbor, Me. June 22.-Mrs. John

Carl Dick, of New York. this afternoon.
The wedding took place in the picturesque
little chapel Of St. Marys, attached to
st. Saviour's Protestant Episcopal
Church, in the presence Of less than thirty
relatives and guests of the couple.
Simply, and with less ceremony than II

Tonight Mr.. and Mrs. Dick are speeding

take them to Santa Barbara, Cal.
So keen was the desire of Mr.. and Mrs.

back way, eluded a bevy Of rice throwers,

for them to land. They did so, and were
Immediately seized. Kessing ordered boat
to return to ship and to report what had
happened. When Mexicans saw boat start
OF they motioned It to return. Coxswain
told them to wait a minute and kept head

feet clear from dock Mexican customs
official in uniform fired his revolver at the

shots were Immediately fired at the boat

on boat, Mexicans firing in all about Bo

the arm and once through bowels. Cox

fingers. and boat was struck many times.
In my opinion boats crew acted properly
in returning FIRE. as otherwise they prob
ably all would have been killed. When
crew began to fire the Mexicans fied from
the dock in a panic and this gave the boat
a chance to get away.

That the District troops cannot entrain

probably longer, is the belief among Of

In harness and the men must pe drilled.
The spirit and work Of the men nave
been all that can be desired. officers
say and any delay is not the fault OF
the organization; II Is the natural result
OF A quick call for mobilization.
A serious drawback to quick move Is
the lack Of horses and mules. OF all the
supply animals for the cavalry and the
held artillery. not more than about ten
horses are available. Gen. Harvey in his
report to Gen. Wood stated. mo animals
with command"
What horses that the artillery has are
borrowed and most Of them are not in
Arst-class condition. They have not had
any training in pulling together, and 1t
would take a week to. properly adjust the
harness.
The infantry would be the arm that
could be sent to the border in the shortest
time. as the equipment is limited to the
packs on the back and the few horses
Of the supply train. II any troops should
leave on short notice, It would probably
be the Third Infantry, and the First Sepa-
rate Battalion.
In case Of dire need. the District troops
might get orders to entrain Immediately.
