WASHINGTON, May 10 "The

Admiral Sims for his personal at

Secretary Daniels declared in open

Senate investigating Committee.
Daniels said he regretted ever hav-

honors. "The Navy stands without a
trace of the mud with which the ad-
miral sought to bespatter it," said
Mr.. Daniels.
Secretary Daniels centered the
first days fire almost exclusively
upon Admiral Sims, dwelling upon
that officers feelings toward Great

WASHINGTON, May 1O.-Follow-
ing the overthrow and capture of
Carranza, with siezure of the City of
Mexico by revolutionists the State
Department was confronted with a
necessity for framing a new policy
in dealing with Mexico.
1t is considered likely that Presi-
dent Wilson will call a cabinet meet
ing this week to consider what course
the United States shall take. For the
present, it is understood, this gov
ernment will not accord recognition to
any Mexican faction which may at
tempt to take charge of their own
federal government.
Official advices to the State De-
partment from the American en-
bassy at Mexico City, reported that
Gen. Pablo Gonzalez and his forces
entered Mexico City Saturday and are
maintaining quiet and order.
An unconfirmed report said that
Gen. Juan R2-ragan Carranza's chief
of staff, G a. y Murgia, commander
of the r~-. = Mexico City, and

Mazatan Surrendered Yesterday. Iturbe
Given Guarantees For Safety. Reports
Of Summary Executions Denied.
Whatever Is Done Will Be After
Fair Trial

Acting on the claim that they now
control not only the national capital
of Mexico, but the capital city OF
every state as well, the leaders of
the Liberal Constitutionalist move
ment yesterday instructed their
agents in Washington to feel out the
State Department with the view of
.ascertaining if it would be possible
for the new movement to be recogniz-
ed at the defacto government of Mex
leo.
According to information given out
by the leaders of the Constitutional
ist movement yesterday, the former
reports that President Carranza had
been captured were incorrect, as he
had escaped into the mountains ap-
parently alone or nearly so at the
time his train was attacked. In
formation from General Obregon to
Governor de la Huerta, acting chief
of the movement was that active
pursuit of the former president was
being maintained, and it was hoped
that he might be captured at any
time.
The reports that Generals Murgia
and Aguilar had been captured and
executed were also branded as prob
ably false by the leaders in Nogales.
They said that their capture might be
possible, but that their execution Was
not at all likely, as strict orders had
been given by Commander-in-C ChIel
de la Huerta to execute no prisoners
without formal trial and proper con-
viction. That General Murgia VIII be
executed in view of his act in or1er-
ing execution of some 200 prisoners,

The PRACTICAL
SIDE OF THE
REVOLUTION
~ -s 4 - 4 b 's.. ~
Nogales, Arizona,
Nav 8, 1920.

In view of the triumphal march of
the revolutionary movement initiated
by the Government of the State Of
Sonora, and with my character. Of
representative in this country of said
Government, with which l am ab-
solutely identified, / consider it my
duty to make the following decIara-
tionS.
The rebellion initiated Dy the Gov
ernment Of Sonora in the legitimate
defense of its sovereignty, offers to
the Mexican Nation a great example
of virility and energy, which neces-
sarily had to have an echo of SYM
pathy and frank adhesion in most of
the States of the Republic; and if it
is true that this rebellion in it's initial
movement and development, has
forcibly had a military character, in
itself is essentially civil movement,
supported by the public opinion of
the whole country, which this time
has applauded without reserve, ac-
cepting with fullness of heart an
armed contest whose object is the de-
fense of a principle, of a right
threatened by the pretorians under
orders from the present President
Mr.. Carranza.
1t is a universally known fact that
at no time has there been recorded
in Mexico a revolutionary movement
that could compare with the present
one initiated by the State of Sonora.
It's leaders and at their head the
Supreme Chief of the Liberal Con-
stitutional Army, Mr.. Adolfo de la
Huerta, have demonstrated with facts
and not with empty promises that
the struggle undertaken does not have
for its object a mean spirit of party,
with it's retinue of odium and passion,
but conscientious and humanitarian
strife, based on the love of order anu
justice.
l have the satisfaction Of inform
ing the public, as fact of vital I'M
portance, that all chiefs of the pre-
sent movement are capable of giving
all kinds of guarantees to foreigners
and nationals, and their vehement de-
sire is no other than, as is being daily
demonstrated but to impart strict
justice without distinction of social
classes and political creeds. Hence
the strength and prestige without
precedent of the armed struggle
which is now developing in Mexico,
which undoubtedly within a brief
term will wave it's victorious banner
over the whole rountry.
By reason of the facts which I
have briefly stated, it IS highly sat-
isfactory to me to make frank and
cordial invitation to all foreign bust

most of whose offences consisted in
differing from the ideas Of President
Carranza, seems likely; but he will
probably be given fair trial by
court martial in pursuance to the or
ders Of Governor de la Huerta.
Mazatlan Surrenders
According to information given out
by revolutionary authorities yester-
day afternoon the City Of Mazatlan
was surrendered by the federal gar
rison, yesterday morning. to the
victorious forces Of General Flores.
Some 500 additional federals station
ed south of the city surrendered yes
terday afternoon.
1t is stated that Governor Iturbe
wired General Obregon to name the
terms on which surrender would be
accepted. He was informed by Obre-
gon that he (Obregon) Aad nothing
to do with regard to that matter, and
that Governor Adolfo de la Huerta,
Supreme Chief of the Independent
Constitutionalist forces was the au-
thority with whom Iturbe should deal.
A general telegraphic conference
between General Flores, Governor
Iturbe.
And Governor de la Huerta later
resulted in the complete surrender of
Iturbe and his forces, all being given
guarantees as to their personal safe
ty including Governor Iturbe.
1t is not known as yet whether or
not the gunboat Guerrero Joined In
the surrender of the city, or whether
she is still loyal to the Carranza gov
ernment. and has left the port Of
Mazatlan.

Oklahoma is one of the Navy's most
