Mexican Newspaper .Likens U. s. Note
 To Demand Made By
 Austria On Siberia

MEXICO CITY, Nov 2S.-That American diplomacy has acted has tily and without complete knowledge of the facts is the concensus of the editorial opinion of the newspapers in Mexico City today in dealing with the situation existing between the United States and Mexico as a result of the arrest of Wm. O.. Jenkins, the American consular agent at Puebla. The Mexican governments reply to the demand of the United States for the release of MT. Jenkins Is charac- terized as an expression of public sentiment
 The Excelsior affects to see in the American note something akin to Austria's demand on Serbia, and lays great stress upon the part it expects the Mexican question to play in the next United States presidential cam paign. This journal does not see the possibility of immediate intervention in Mexico by the United States.
 Fl Universal criticizes what it terms the sharpness of the American note and says diplomacy must never be irritated." This newspaper ex- presses hope that the Jenkins case will be "adjudged with a clear mind.

American Negro Is Said To Lead Yaqui Indians To Battle

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Nov. 2S.-An American negro who deserted re- gently from the Tenth United States cavalry is reported to be the leader of band of approximately 300 Yaqui Indians who raided the eastern part of the Moctezuma district early this month. The man'ss name could not be learned from the arrivals. At last report the federal forces under General Juan Torres, military com mander of Sonora, still were in pur- suit of the Indians near Tonichi.
 The Yaquis were believed to be heading for their stronghold in the Baca Tete mouptains. Sam Suplee foreman for the Nina Mexico, in the Sahuaripa district, said he dined re gently with the general at the Pro greso mine. The general expressed the intention of subduing the Indians if it were possible. in order to bring more foreign capital into the state badly needed not only to furnish rev enue but employment.

HOWE HELD UP DEPORTAT|ONS
 WITNESS SAYS
Former Commissioner of Im- migration at Ellis Island
 Is Accused of Blockading
 the Wheels of Justice

NEW YORK, Nov 2S.-Testimony that Frederick c. Howe. former com missioner of immigration at Ellis island, had ordered deportations of radicals held up, although final de portation orders had been received from the department of labor, was given to the house immigration com mittee today by Percy A. Baker. SUI perintendent of the island. Baker put in evidence an order he had received from Howe last March, read ing:
 "You will stay all deportations in these alien cases until the attorneys can be advised and until after con sultations with me"
 Baker testified that an order of the department to deport was final and he therefore did not understand the note from Howe and consulted him. Baker then made this memo randum on the copy of the note shown the committed:
 Representative Siegel of New York said there was no authority in law for such staying of deportations. Baker said that some of the radi calls affected by the stay had been released by the department and some had obtained their freedom by habeas corpus proceedings. The effect oi Howe's order to him, he said, prob ably was to permit delay for the in stitution of habeas corpus proceed | ines
 Representative Siegel read from immigration department records names of two dozen men who had been held at the island with war rants for their deportation on file but had been released mostly on their own recoguizance They are now missing

TENSION BETWEEN MEX|CO AMI Us. STRAINED ALMOST n THE
 BREAKING POINT; DEPARTMENT
 SILENT REGARDING NEXT MOVE
w. w. Wallace, American Oil Man, and Otto Lund Amer icanized Swedes Latest Victims of Mexican Banditry Latter Died of Blood Poison Resulting From Cap ture By Bandits, Who Held Him For Ran
 som; Ashurst Demands Action

1 WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-AnotheI
 American murdered in Mexico, close on the imprisonment of Consular 1 Agent William O. Jenkins, coupled with reports of revolution in Mexico | City with Carranza in flight to Quer-
 etaro, added complexity today which seemed to force the already tense
 Mexican situation toward the long expected breaking point. There were
 no official announcements for the guidance of public opinion as to what action, if any, the American govern ment might be contemplating, but administration officials, by indica- tion, were willing to show that the government is taking firm position, considering the eventualities, and is prepared to deal with them, once a course is chosen.
 Another of "the last straws," as
 one official put it, was laid on today with the official report of the murder of w. w. Wallace, an American oil man, by a Carranza soldier near Tampico on Wednesday. The Wallace referred tC is believed here to be w. M. Wallace, an em ploye of the Gulf Refining company familiarly known to his associates as Jim" Wallace, who recently went to Tampico after having been in Co lombia for the Gulf company. He
 is about 40 years old.
 The Mexican Ambassador, Ygnacio
 Bonillas, called on Secretary Lansing at the state department today and they not only went over the Jenkins , case, but MT. Lansing also laid before
 the Mexican envoy the report on the
 killing of Wallace which has just been received.
 About the same time word came ot the death of another American as the result of brutal treatment of bandits
 who held him for ransom. He was Otto Lund, of Swedish birth, ma turaliZed American, who died ol blood poisoning after being held Tor ransom five months in the state or Mayarit. His captors chopped OH one of his fingers and wrapped II within their written demand for ran some money which they sent to hls
 friends in Tepic. Blood poisoning
 and gangrene, killed the man while
 his wife, an American woman, and
 their child are reported in want in ! Topic.
 According to state department rec ords the last eight murders have been in this order:
 July 31: R. A. Cunningham at Matamoras.
 August 2S: Adam Schaefer t Pinos.
 August 30: H. s. McGill at Coapa.
 September 2: A. P. Hennessy at La Colorado.

AMERICANS KILLED IN MEXICO
Lady Astor Will Take Office Monday

PLYMOUTH, Nov. 26. It will be a darkly garbed woman, unadorned by jew els, who will be presented to the speaker of the house of commons Monday to take the oath as a member of parliament. Lady Astor says she will wear a plain black tailored coat and skirt, a simple white shirt waist and small black hat on the occasion of her pre- sentation and that she will not vary from this sinpic- ity of dress except possibly for the evening sessions, when she may wear a plain dark frock with a white collar and cuffs.
 She was recently elected by a big majority to a seat in parliament, the first wo- man to occupy that covet- ed position.
Bisbee daily review., 1919-11-29

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-The gov ernment served blunt notice on soft coal miners and operators tonight that interference with coal produc- tiOn would not be tolerated.
 Warning that legal prosecution would be employed to thwart con spiracies by either side and troops sent wherever necessary to protect miners willing to work came from the department of justice after mem bers of the cabinet had considered every phase of the fuel situation, ad- mittedly critical, in view of the ab- rupt breaking off of negotiations.
 It is not the intention of the gov ernment to let the mines remain idle with half of the country in the grip of cold weather and coal piles rapid ly diminishing.
 The administration, it was thought by those in position to know, had fully expected the miners to reject the 14 per cent wage increase offered by Fuel Administrator Garfield. An ticipating this, plans had been con sidered for augmenting the present output of bituminous mines, officially figured at better than 40 per cent Of normal.
 A statement by Assistant Attorney General Ames, issued late in the day, gave assurance to all miners that they would be afforded ample protec- tion if they. returned to work, even

I THREE BRIDGES GO AS FLOODS SWEEP OVER
 N. ARIZONA
Construction Spanning Hass- ayampa River at Wicken- burg Is Washed Completely
 Out, Says State Engineer

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 2S.-The county bridge over the Hassayampa river at Wickenburg was washed con- pletely away, the Antelope bridge on the road between Buckeye and Yuma is going out. and all false work of a two-arch span being constructed over the upper Verde river near Cotton wood, below Jerome in Yavapai coun- ty, has been washed away, according to official advices on floods received tonight by State Engineer Maddock.
 The report from Jerome said a IA foot head of water was going down the upper Verde at the point where the washout occurred. There was 3S,0O0 feet of construction material in the false work that was swept away. The bridge was being built under contract from the Yavapai board of supervisors and the state engineer.
 Maddock stated that the water had not gone down and it was therefore impossible to establish the loss to the foundations.
 The loss in false work will amount to $100O0, roughly speaking, he said
 The bridge over the Hassyaampa river at Wickenburg was about 250 feet in length. The water took every thing but the piling, which sdll stands. In 1913 the center pier was washed away.
 The Central avenue bridge south of Phoenix was two feet under water several hours yesterday morning be- fore the water in the Salt river went down, Engineer Maddock reporting that no damage was done to the bridge although there were many pre- withstand such pressure and punish ment. ..
 There has been a slight raise in the Gila River, said Maddock, his report from Florence stating that there was no damage expected as a result. The Augua Fria river has also receded to normal today, with no reports of loss of life in that flooded area received up to tonight. Partial destruction of the Buckeye railroad bridge and of the approaches to the state highway bridge caused an aggregate loss esti- mated at $60,000.
