 %Permit me to point out to Your EsxceIlency." the Mexican reply safd, that the said Mir. Torres, in tesuIy-
 ing before the sub committee of the United states senate, stated that con ditions prevailing at present i'll 'MeX : ico were chaotic. exhibiting as eVi- dence of his assertion that the presl-
 dent of the republic on the occasion
 of his visit to Cuatro Ctenegas had
 been escorted by 1000 soldiers Fur thermore. the said MT. Pores ex-
 pressed himself in harsh terms with
 regard to Article 27 of the eonst1tu- ton stating it simply provided for confiscation or robbery. In general his statements were not only deroga- . tory to Mexico and this government but were also sarcastic. Neverthe-
 less the said MT. Torres has not confined himself to his false state
 ments with regard to Mexico but he has been engaged in an active propa gan6a against Mexico among the persons attending the sessions hay | ing furthermore offered in joculal ! tone to go to the Mexican consulate
 and advise himself as to whether the ! wise of his passport would be denied i confident that it would not be.
 Tn view of the antecedents of MT 1 Henry my government is pained tC | advise Your Excellency that it canno

DEBATE WITHOUT ACTION
 IN SENATE ON TREATY

Washington, March 3.-While the treaty debate dragged on in the sen ate today without action, the treatys friends began a final determined ef- fort to rescue it from the deadlock to- ward which all leaders agree it again is headed.
 Republican and democratic senators joined in the movement, but they were only moderately hopeful of sue cess. Putting collateral issues aside, they addressed their efforts to the republican reservation to Article Ten. long the storm center of the whole treaty fight, which the republican leaders have said they cannot mod fly and which President Wilson has said he cannot accept
 Some compromise proponents pro-
 fessed to see a possibility that an acce ptahe modification yet might be formulated. Others believed that de- spite assurances of democratic lead CTS, enough democrats to put through the reservation as it stands might vet be induced to quit the presidents lead.
 The confidence of the treaty's ir- reconeilable opponents apparently
 was not shaken, and leaders. of the
