Requested by Senator Fall.

Washington. Feb. 1S-Fart Of the
state department data on the Mexi-
can situation. asked for by Senator
Fall, were transmitted to the senate
on Thursday by President Wilson.
Under motion of Chairman Stone of
the foreign relations committee the

that 70 American citizens were killed
in Mexico in the years 1913, 1914. 1915,
as against AZ in the three years pre-
ceding it, and that 20 civilian Ameri-
cans and 16 soldiers were killed on
American soil in the same three years
as a result Of Mexican troubles
Government Is Military.
In describing the CarranZa govern
report:
1T cannot be said that the de facto
government OF Mexico is a constitu-
tional government The de facto gov
eminent, like the majority of revolu-
tlonary governments, is of military
character, but that government has
committed itself to the holding of cleo
tions and it is confidently expected
that the present government will with
in a reasonable time be merged in or
succeeded by a government organized
! under the constitution and laws of
Mexico"
Order on Border.
The report says regarding the deaths
of Americans:
When the murder of American citii
zens was reported the department of
state made representations for the ap-
prehensiOn and punishment of the as
sailants. and in some instances the de-
partment's representatives made such
| representations to the appropriate Of
ficials on their own initiative"
Secretary Lansing further said that
order along the Mexican border was
gradually being restored.
President Wilson, in a brief letter
forwarding the report, said he ap-
proved OF Secretary Lansing's letter
submitting the data.
Senator Fall expressed disappoint-
ment because the president and sec
rotary of sta,e deemed it to the pub
lie interest to withhold some of the
| information requested.

BOSTONIANS AT ORPHEUM.

The Irish of the sixteenth century
|acteristics are forceably brought out
by the famous 'Botsonians" in their
delightful musical comedy "Tipperary
Mary" which will be the attraction at
the Orpheum theatre Monday evening,
June 10. The scene of the play is laid
in the old town from which the play
takes its name, and many of the ia
nous landmarks are worked into the
scenic effects The rambling old vii
lage can be seen in the foreground
with the vast fertile hills and valleys
stretching as far back as the eye can
see, and crowned by one of those old
castles for which the Emerald Isle is
famous. The fame of the ancient Irish
has been handed down to us. Every
Irishman is born wit, and wit and
humor abounds in "Tipperary Mary"
The play is simply teeming with laugh
ter, all the joviality of the Irish, all
| their love of fun and frolic, has been
faithfully recorded by the author, and
the result is that one of the most re-
| freshing plays that has ever been writ
ten concerning the "distressful coun-
try" will be presented.
| No stone has been left unturned to
set as near to the conditions that eX.
listed in Ireland at the time in which
the action of "Tipperary Mary" tool
place, and for those of us who would
see Ireland visit to the Orpheum vii
not be amiss. Seats should be reserved
early at Getsey's.
