JUROR SHORTAGE
STILL HALTS TRIAL

WILLIAMSON, W. Va, Feb. g.
The second weekend recess OF the
Matewan gunfght trial found the
jury as far from complete as at this
time a week ago.
Twenty-nine Veniremen were ex-
amined at today's two-hour session.
but not one qualified. Nearly all of
them expressed opposition to cap
ital punishment.
The eighteen tentatively accepted
talesmen, contrary to expectations.
did not have to spend the week
in the courthouse in the sheriff s
custody as last week. They were
allowed to go home today by Judge
Robert D. Bailey, with the admonf-
tion not to discuss the case.
1t was generally believed tonight
that the possibilities of Mingo
County, SO far as prospective jury
men are concerned, will have been
exhausted by the middle of next
week. Then the case will either
be continued, probably until the end
of next month, or the question Of
admitting negro veniremen will be
taken up.
1t was pointed out tonight that
should a demand for negro venire-
men pe duep JuuBe Bailey would
be legally bound to grant it. as the
law distinctly forbids the exclusion
of colored men from the jury lists.
1t is not expected, however, that the
law will be brought into play as
many maneuvers are possible on the
part of those in charge of the case
to prevent such a contingency.
One contingent of veniremen rode
into Williamson today on a freight
train. They were arrested for
trespassing.
There is some talk in favor of a
legislative amendment repeating the
statute which makes 1t impossible
for men to serve on a jury II they
have served on a petit jury within
two years.

want Final settlement.

The statement which Under-S Secretary
Fletcher made to Senior Ugarte are sum-
married. as follows:
Washington Is sincerely desirous Of a
final settlement Of the existing difficult
ties. In asking that a treaty Of friend
ship and commerce be signed !. does not
mean to bring pressure to bear, but only
suggests appropriate means according to
its judgment. If Mexico knows Of any
better way to solve the problem it may
offer it. The action taken by Washing
ton is entirely free from the influence
OF oil men or politicians. Mr.. Fletcher
would be disposed to go in person to
Mexico to sign the arrangement
The friendship existing between the
two peoples compels both Governments
to guarantee that friendship and also
to avoid any future actions that might
cause friction
There Is no idea in Washington at
present to grant recognition and defer
the signing of the treaty. Washington
does not demand peremptory payment
Of the foreign debt or of the claims
growing out of injuries caused by the
revolution and is ready to assist in the
restoration of Mexico.
Speaking of the alleged influence of
oil men, Mr.. Fletcher is quoted a. say
ing:
1T Is absolutely untrue that oil in
huences are determining the action oi

A strong and friendly appeal to the
good sense of Mexico to abandon It's

has been made by the State Depart
ment in an interview given by II. r.

senor Jose Gomez Ugarte. Director Of

paper.
This interview was given on August
IL by Mr.. Fletcher in Washington and
published in Mexico. Only garbled re-
ports have been received here. The de-
partment places so much stress upon
the statement that it was made public
in full to-day.
Mr.. Fletcher lays all the cards upon
the table and in effect says: Come
now, let us reason together"
He says 1t is essential that definite
understanding be reached on the confis-
catory provisions of Article q of the
Mexican Constitution, and shows how
it is reasonable for the United States to
expect assurance.

He also suggests that oil outstanding
claims against Mexico be handled by q
mixed commission. so that all differences
may be removed at once. The Admin
istration is disturbed over the Mexican
situation on account of its own interests.
but more especially because it is retard-
ing the progress of Mexico.
Mr. F'letcher's statement is frank
offer Of friendly help. 1t is believed by
Government officials that the situation in
Mexico would not be so difficult IL 1t
were not for the activity of certain
Americans in Mexico and in New York
who are bolstering UP the Mexican Gov
ernment in its refusal to negotiate by
instiling the poison that oil interests in

Dr. Romula Naon, former Argentine
ambassador to the United States, in
formed La Nacion that he did not
favor reprisals on the part of Argen-
tine of the measure became effective.
I'm commercial relations between
two countries a system of tariff re-
prisals is most dangerous" he said.
You know where they begin, but not
where they will end. 1t is an exceed
ingly dangerous policy"
DR.. Naon declared there was no
doubt that the commercial situation
between the United States and Argen-
tina would be made worse il the Ford
ney bill became effective. He blamed
the Argentine government for not
foreseeing that such a measure would
be undertaken by the Republican party
and negotiating special commercial
treaty with the United States which
would forestall it and create an advan-
tageous situation for Argentine in its
commercial relations with the United
States.
The tariff policy of the Republican
party being known" he added, "it was
the duty of our government to arm
itself beforehand against possible con-
sequences"
