More Mileage Will
Be Paid to Soldiers

WASHINGTON, May 6.-Thous-
ands of soldiers, sailors and marines,
discharged from service between No
vembcr II, 1918, when the armistice
went into effect, and Febru"ry 28,
1919 may file claims with the auditor
of the War Department for IL cent
per mile for travel expenses from the
place of discharge to their homes.
This was decided yesterday by Comp
trollcr of the Treasury Warwick, pass
ing on a number of questions inyolv-
ing discharged soldiers travel allow
arces.
Comptroller Warwick held that the
act of February %, 1919, allowing .
cents a mile from the place of dis
charge to the actual bona fde home
or residence of a discharged man, was
retroactive to November IL. Men dis
charged between those dates were al
lowed only 3 l-2 cents mile, how
ever. under the former act.
The comptroller declined to estab
IIiah any general rule by which the mil
itary or naval authorities can deter
mine what constitutes the "aetua
bora fde home or residence" of /
man.

Mexican Militarists
Ride Rough Shod
Over Country

WASHINGTON, May 6.-Advices
received in Washington yesterday
told of the overriding of the Mexi-
can sumpere court by the military
party in connection with the recent
execution of General de p Alverez
The incident was said by the dis
patches to have created a serious sit
uation in the Mexican capital and
that the supreme court was reported
to be considering recigning in a body
because in executing General Alvarez
the military party ignored a stay
granted by the court.
Alvarez, after having been SEN
fenced by courtmartial to be shot,
appealed to the supreme court for a
writ of amparo. He declared the mil
itary authorities had no jurisdiction
in his case and cited the constitution
whic hprovides that the military au-
thorities have jurisdiction only in mil
itary crimes committed by soldiers.
The supreme court, it is said, granted
his petition for apmrao and sent to
General Rafeal Montalvo, president
of the courtmartial, telegram for
bidding him to shoot the prisoner.
The telegram was received by Gen
eral Montalvo two hours before the
time set for the execution of Alvarez,
nine o'clock at night, April 21, and
the receipt of the telegram delayed
the shooting until eleven o'clock that
night. General F. L. Urquizo, CHIEF
of military operations in the state
of Vera Cruz, then telegraphed the
supreme court saying that the execu'
ton had taken place because it hao
been ordered by the war department
in Mexico City. The dispatches say II
dveloped that the war department
was notified of the supreme courts
decision and then confirmed the find
ing of the courtmartial and ordered
the execution to be carried out.
The same advices told of the cap
ture of Alvarez by the government
troops and disclosed for the first tim'
reports that General Banquet, anoth
er rebel leader, was noc killed by gov
ernment troops as reported from Mex
leo City, but that his death was du'
to an accident.
Alvarez and Banquet, the advice
said, became lost in jungle in tn
southern part of the state of Ver
Cruz. While wandering about seek
ing their guide both fell into an ar
royo. Banquet, these advices say
was killed by the fall and Alvarez S
seriously injured that when govern
ment troops came upon him, he wa
captured without resistance. Tn
federal troops then cut off the hea
of Banquet and took it to Vera Cru
as proof of the rebel leaders, death.
