Resolutions in Both Houses Asking Intervention Because of Slaughter
 of Seventeen Americans.

committee. In Lansing's statement
 regarding the butchery of the Ameri-
 cans, who are now said to number
 seventeen, he declares that the de-
 partment feels that it took every pre- caution possible to prevent Americans
 from entering regions where guerilla
 warfare is in progress. He says his
 advice was not followed but he will
 take every necessary step to see that
 the perpetrators of this dastardIy
 crime are apprehended and punished.'
 It was learned this afternoon that
 Lansing has already telegraphcd to
 Carranza demanding the prompt
 punishment of the murderers of the Americans. He has made the same demand through Elizo Arrenendo, the newly appointed Mexican ambassador to the United States. CaTanza has communicated with the state depan- ment on the matter He confirms the news that the Americans were taken out of the train and slaughtered in cold blood. He expresses the great est sorrow and asks for further de- tails of the occurrence so that he might know how to act. Arrange ments are being made today to bring the bodies of the murdered men from Chihuahua to Juarez on a spcial train. The more news that comes about the affair the greater becomes the hor- TOT. The murdered men were resi- dents of California, Texas and Arizona and were all of the best type of Americans. When taken from the train, it is said, they were treateo with inhuman cruelty. As they were led out one by one to be slaughtered, with their clothes torn off, they asked for the reason but no answers were vouchsafed and they were done to death is cold blood like mad dogs. Many of the newspapers and public men are calling for the immediate in- vasion of that part of Mexico to wreak vengeance for the murders.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-As a di- rect result of the foul murder of sev- eral Americans near Chihuahua strong resolutions were introduced yesterday in both houses of congress calling on the president to take action immediately and to intervene in Mexico until affairs in that country have become settled. Both resolutions favor holding on to possession of Mexico until order has been restored and then to relinquish it. The ad- ministration has issued statement declaring that it cannot be held responsible in any way for the loss of the lives of the Americans as it had warned all United States citizens to
 
 keep out of country which was known to be infested with bands of guerillas and bandits. The whole country has been shocked and extreme expressions may be expected in con o.,oes u,bon tba rasolutiOnS come uD for discussion. The murders of the Americans are regarded as the most cod-blooded and defiant of all the outrages committed against American citizens by Mexicans of any side or party. So deep is the feeling that everyone believes the administration will be forced to some action.

LIFT OUR COTTON FARMERS CORNER THE MARKET

Our readers know how valiant ly The Progressive Farmer has fought in every battle to compel a fair price for cotton, We are not so much concerned ordinari- ly about forcing prices away up beyond fourteen or fifteen cents because of our fear that this will mean a quick collapse the next year to the one-crop system, crop liens, over production and low prices.
 Here, however, is the situation as we now see it: The crop is short, alarmingly short. and be fore another crop comes in there is going to be a virtual cotton famine. a forcing prices perhaps beyond any figures yet reached. And if anybody's going to corner the market and force prices sky high, we want farmers and not

spectators to do the cornering and rake in the money.
 Two years ago we had to sell a crop at five or six cents pound too little. Now if we can get five or six cents a pound too much, it's only a fair evening up. There seems to us therefore no occasion for rushing cotton to market, even at present prices. We again commend the slogan, Pick rapidly, sell slowly, and know your grades. . If anybody is to corner the market, let the farmers do the cornering. At the same time let every farmer arrange now for record breaking acreage in clover, vetch oats rye and wheat, for feedstuffs are high and if cotton goes much higher nothing can prevent q record d-hreaking acreage next yeat. And when every body else goes cotton.crazy, the wise man prepares to live at home. Be wise in time. The Progressive Farmer.
