STORY OF MURDER
 AND OUTRAGE TOLD
SENATE COMMITTEE HEARS OF THE BLOODY DEEDS IN
 MEXICO.

San Antonio, Tex. - Stories of ter rible cruelty, unredressed murders and devastation of properties were given the Senate subcommittee in vestigating the Mexican situation by men yet in close touch with condi. tions in Mexico. T. M McBee, a cat tleman from a border town James J. Britt, a lawyer from Tampico, and George E. Blalock, once the head of what was the largest colony of Amer ican farmers in Mexico and now ope- rating small grocery store here, were the witnesses. The effect of their testimony was to strengthen the claims of witnesses heard in Wash ington that the insecurity of Ameri can life and property in Mexican is growing greater.
 Britt, who reminded the committee that he is not employed by any oil company, said that American life was worth more in the Argonne than it is today in the country about Tampico.' He entered the United States only two days ago. He is one of the men who assisted in caring for the bodies of F. J. Roney and Earl Boles, who were killed in the oil fields on Decem, Der 30 The three had dined together on Christmas Day.
 Britt appeared confident that the men were killed by Carranzas s sol diers
 They were killed within the Car. ranza lines," he said, "and the bull lets we took from their bodies were those used by the government sol diers and not by bandits Moreover. Boles, after he had been brought tc the ground by bullet in his ankle was attacked from behind by a ma with a machete. The blade was thrust far into his body, turned downward and then up again. The rebels in that part of the country dc not carry machetes. The soldiers do."
 His theory that the killing was done by soldiers was further support. ed by telling how the paymaster of one of the oil companies who looks like Roney did, received permission about the same time the two had left to carry a certain amount of money into the oil fields. This information was transmitted to the Carranzistas. Britt believes those who killed Roney and Boles believed they were killing the paymaster and someone else.

BOLSHEVSTS BAR
 BERKMAN'S GANG
ONLY THREE OF ExILES TO BE ALLOWED TO ENTER SO-
 WET RUSSIA.
ALL RECEIVE WARM WELCOME
Deportees Laden With Suitcases and Boxes Trudeed Through Deep Snow Laughing and
 Singing.

Terijoki.-The band of Bolsheviki and anarchists deported from the United States are safely across the Russian frontier, but whether all the members of the party will remain safe in soviet Russia is a question to be determined by the Bolshevik au- thorities
 Hardly had the last of them passed over the border than a belated tele gram reached the Finnish military officials in charge of the transfer, an- nouncing that the Soviet government had decided to permit only three of the deportees to enter. Their names have not been made public, but those favored are believed to be Emma Goldman, Alexander Berkman and Peter Bfansky. The telegram is in- comprehensible in view of the fact that a delegation, including the wife of Maxim GOrky, came out to receive the exiles and elaborate preparations had been made by the frontier Bol- sheviki to welcome them.
 The undesirable aliens, headed by Al6&duueT bGIhIldu dHQ EuIIld 0Olu- man, deported from the United States entered soviet Russia. They received an enthusiastic welcome
 The deportees, laden with suitcases and boxes, trudged through the deep snow laughing and singing reYolu- tionary songs as they neared the bor- der. Hearty cheers were raised by the Russians waiting for them on the other side of the frozen Syster- bak river which separates the Fin nish and Bolshevik lines. Willing hands helped them scramble up the steep banks, and amid the ruins of the war-wrecked town of Bielo-Os- troy, overlooking the stream, the Bolsheviki gave the exiles vocifer- ous greetings that stirred up frenzy of enthusiasm and delight among the newcomers. They dropped their lug gage, whipped off their caps as military band played the Bolshevik anthem, and cheering wildly, broke open their boxes of food and cigar cites brought from the Buford, dis tributing them lavishly among the crowd.

BADGER DISPUTES SIMS;
HIS PLANS REJECTED
Navy Board Head Puts Emphatic
Denial to Charges of
Daniels Critic.

Washington, April 6.-Rear-Admiral
Badger, head of the Navy General Board
since the death of Admiral Dewey, told
the Senate Investigating Committee yes
terday that he wished to make emphatic
denial of Rear-Admiral Sims charges
that the navy was 'unprepared for war,
had no war plans or policies in April.
1917, and pursued vacillating policy
for SIX months after war was declared.
While conceding that some mistakes
had been made, Admiral Badger de-
clared the navy on the whole was well
prepared and administered. The charge
that the Navy Department had no plans
for war was both unjust and incor-
rect" the Admiral said.
I'VE had plans, well considered ones,
he declared.
''The trouble is that the plans and the
execution of them did not meet with the
approval of the critics.
Despite the adverse, criticisms that
have recently been widely circulated. it
may confidently be maintained that the
navy met and stood the stress of great
war. If success is the test of any organiza-
tion, then the alleged Shortcomings of
the navy and its directing heads can oe
dismissed from serious consideration"
Defending his removal OF Rear-Ad-
miral William B. Fletcher from the
Brest command in October, 1917, Rear
Admiral Sims told a naval Investigate
ing board today that Fletcher's failure
to grasp his primary mission" made
his transfer imperative.
Sims declared Fletcher failed to make
proper use of the forces under his COM
mand In carrying out the mission of pro-
tecting American troop and supply ships
leaving French ports and disregarded
general instructions from London to
adopt a system of "indoctrinating his
forces with the best tactical practice
for carrying out that mission"
''The limitations of the forces under
Admiral Fletcher's command were well
recognized" Sims declared, ''but no de
mands were made upon them which could
not have been met by their proper use"

CUTTERS DISCUSS SITUATION.
Deny That Red Propaganda Is Influencing
The Actions.

The meeting of the railroad cutters In
Eden Hall last night showed no loss of
attendance or enthusiasm from those
which have been held every afternoon
and evening since the walkout began.
An orchestra was on hand and the meet
ing opened with the singing of Nearer My
God to Thee" and closed with my
Country 'Tis of Thee" Speakers en-
phasized the individual nature of the
walkout and their determination not to
return until concessions were made by
the railroads.
A shopman reported that bout $500
men were out yesterday in the local
shops. OF the 600 still on the job, he
said. nearly all were Office men or laborers.
The president of the car repairmen in the
shops said that he had opposed quitting
there, but that when the men quit he
quit with them.
Denial of any Red affiliations was made
by one of the speakers, who said that the
"bunch of Reds out West" had nothing
to do with the movement here. Reports
from the meetings in Irish-American hall
and in Philadelphia were made by men
who had attended them.
At the afternoon meeting, several
hundred were present When it was a
nounced that the conference In Philadel-
phia was pit over without action because
the management of the Ph ladelDh and
Reading and Baltimore and Ohio rail-
roads had sent 10 representatives, the
quitters voted unanimously not TO return
to work on any agreement unless the
heads of all railroads affected by the
walkout were party to it.
