SOLDIERS ARE FOUND

The train which arrived here tonight bearing the refugees, also brought two American soldiers who were picked up in uniform by members of the Car ranza train guard Is miles south of the border. Gen. Gabriel Gavira com mandant at Juarez, said he would turn the soldiers over to an American of- ficer tomorrow. They disappeared last Sunday and tonight could say only that they did not know how they got into Mexico where United States soldiers, in or out of uniform, are not permitted to go at any time. 1t was long after dark when the refugee train with it's guard of more than 100 Carranza sol diers from Chihuahua drew into Juarez. The coaches were lighted by candles stuck on the back of the wooden seats.
 The train was met by party which included General Gavira, the Juarez ,commandant, Andreas. Garcia, Carranza consul at Fl Paso, and z. l.. Cobb. col lector of the port of Ell Paso MT. Cobb quickly passed the entire party and

the body through Mexican territory had been made of the de facto government, it was said. Meanwhile, it will be kept in a receiving vault here in which it was de- posted late this afternoon.
 Huerta's body lay in state in the family residence, on a quiet side street, and there came a motley crowd of MeXicans, among which appeared a few Americans, to pay homage to the man whose refusal to salute the American flag precipitated the fighting at Vera Cruz, with consequent loss of score of American lives
 The casket was draped with Mexican flag and atop it lay the generals jeweled sword and the gold-braided chapeau he wore on state occasions. On the dead mans breast appeared the gem-set stars and emblems of orders he wore for a time as the head of the Mexican nation. On either side of the casket and at the head and foot, candles burned dimly in the darkened room, and through the

Brazilian minister formerly in Mexico City regarding Carranza outrages. Sem ator Lodge observed during the debate that the war of April 21, 1914, against Huerta, had been successfully terminated, "inasmuch as MT. Huerta has just died in jail.'
 Senator Stone tonight said the foreign relations committee would not meet until next week, when President Wilson is eX- pected to send in information regarding the recognition of the Carranza govern ment requested in Senator Falls resolu- tion. Chairman Flood of the House for eign affairs committee said his committee would not consider Mexican intervention resolutions for sometime at least.
 The reported threat of group of Amer jeans at Fl Paso to enter Mexico with a military organization of their own appar- ently is not taken seriously by the state department. Secretary Lansing said that in such a case the responsibility was that of the department of justice and the mill itary, but he intimated that such a move- ment, since it would be violation of the neutrality laws, would be checked.
 Charges made by citizens of Fl Paso against American Consul Edwards of Juarez were received during the day. MT. Lansing said he saw mo necessity for re- plying

 The sensational has been absent from the case, and nothing was introduced to connect the killing with the holdup of the Louisville and Nashville train here in July.

DEBATE IN SENATE

Debate in the Senate brought out the positive declarations from Senator Stone and Senator Lewis of Illinois that there would be no countenancing of the de- mands of republican leaders for interven- tion and both charged the republicans with insncerity of purpose and seeking to make political issue. Senator Stone, after his conference with President Will son, said intervention in Mexico at this time would be monstrous in the face of the fact that the United States had just recognized Carranza He declared that to intervene would be playing into the hands of Villa and Zappata. who sought for purposes of revenge to make trouble between Carranza and the United States.
 Senator Lewis insisted that the repub- licans, despairing of any other political issue, sought to make Mexico a para mount issue, but would fail. To intervene in Mexico, he asserted, would turn South and Central America against the United States and destroy the diplomatic achievements of the administration with European belligerents.
 Senator Fall, republican, assailed the administration and bitterly attacked Car ranza, declaring that even Senator Stone would be amazed at his recognition by this government could he see notes from the

 The scarcity of troops at the Chi huahua state capital was confirmed by arrivals who said that 250 men was about the total of the CarranZa forces there. On January 10, the day of the reported battle at Escalon, between tn q forces of Argumedo and the Carransa troops from Chihuahua City, it was reported that troops had moved out of the capital to the south.

He would find that in the partic.

were for the corporation and four
Judges we're with the shipper. and
Judge Root was NOT among the
three In favor OF the railway cor.
poration.
II Judge Root had been corpo.

have been TO throw his vote with
the three judges in favor of the

cure majority OF the court In IA

Il Ia said that Judge Root chang.
ed his opinion after delivering II.
but the fact Is that few words

and did not change the substance OF
the opinion.

They determined and are now az.
tcrmining to get his political life.
They even charged him with ac.
cepting $4,000 which the Great

His resignation showed his high re.
spect for The court as an institution
and his desire TO keep II above sus.
