Washington

In a note to the British and French
governments, made public at Washing
ton, President Wilson calls on the
allies to cease at once their interfer
ence with American mails, which is
proving so costly to Americans and in
many instances profitable to British
business interests.
The house military affairs committee
at Washington has completed the army
pay bill, which will carry a total of
about $150,O00,000 for the year be-
ginning July 1, or about $49,000,000
more than the last bill.
Reversing his previous decision,
Secretary Baker announced at Wash
ington that the 116 members of the
Texas National Guard who failed to
present themselves for muster into
the federal service will be brought to
court-martial Immediately under the
present law.
The $43,00O,000 rivers and harbors
bill was practically doomed in the SEN
ate at Washington when, on test
vote, the filibusters won 80 to 20.
The house at WASHINGTON passed
the Oregon California land grant bill
by a vote of 1876 to 6. No roll call
was demanded. The measure revests
in the government title to all Of the
unsold portion of the original grant
of land to the Oregon & California
railroad, of which the Southern Pacific
is successor.
Vigorous language almost equaling
that employed in the last communica-
ton to Germany on the submarine is
sue, is understood to characterize the
notes delivered !. to the British and
French embassies at Washington, pro
testing against interference with
neutral mails.

Mexican Revolt

A short sharp battle between force
of American army engineers and a
gang of Mexican bandits under Ger
vantes, one of Pancho Villas most
trusted ieutenants, was fought south
Of Cruces. Three Americans we're

several wounded and the band scat

General Funston electrified the

troops from Mexico, was dispatched to

United States, but they are ready for
war rather than to have their national
honor and sovereignty trampled on.
