WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. 13.-
President Wilson is standing square
ly behind Secretary Lansing's state
nent that the Americans who entered
Mexico did so at their own risk.
While Carranza has been urged TO
punish the murderers the president
has not deviated in the least from
his Mexican policy.
The stand taken by the officials is
,hat the victims of the Santa Ysa-
bel massacre were specifically warn
ed not to enter Mexico.
Senator Leads has introduced
resolution whereby the administration
under President Wilson will be en-
powered to order the army into Mex
ica TO cooperate with any faction
with the purpose of protecting the
ives and property of Americans.
The resolution was temporarily laid
on the table.
Mexican Representative Arradondo
mas assured Secretary Lansing that
Carranza greatly deplores the mas

Ell PASO, Tex, Jan. 14.-Huerta,
dead in his apartments, is virtually a
prisoner of the government with
which he neatly went to war when he

His widow plans to seek permission
to bury him at his birthplace.

is doubtful. as he holds that Huerta
was responsible for the assassination
of Madero and Suarez.
