BONUS BILL LAID TO REST
Offers of Fist Fight Ring in Senate,
Where Bonus Bill Brings
Challenge.

V-a%lln gtm.-Amid a turbulent
scene. in which the lie was passed and
two Senators almost came to blows.
the soldier bonus bill was laid away
by the Senate to rest in committee
until the President has accomplished
his program of "retrenchment ana
economy" The vote was AZ to 20.
The early obituaries were conducted
with the tranquility that usually at
tends such ceremonies, but wild disor-
der began when Senator Porter j. Nc
Cumber, of North Dakota, Republican,
author of the bill, in a post-mortem
speech tried to explain that the meas
ure was not dead, but merely was go
ing back to the committee for a rest.
1t would "walk again." the Senator
predicted, when impending tariff and
tax legislation had been passed and
the refunding of the allied debt had
been arranged for. The fuse to the ex-
plosion that engulfed the Senate mo-
ment later was touched off by Senator
Joseph T. Robinson, of Arkansas, Dem

McCumber's action on the bill
Senator Robinson's objections pre-
cipitated free-for-all wrangle, IN
which the feeling became intense, and
all the political and personal animosl-
ties existing in the chamber received a
thorough ventilation. The climax
came when Senator McCumber, at the
close of a bitter exchange with SEN
ator James A. Reed, of Missouri, Dem
ocrat, invited the latter to go outside
to settle the issue. The challenge was
provoked when Senator Reed, using
the McCumber statement as his theme,
endeavored to show that if the enact.
ment of legislation depended on the
refunding of foreign debts, five years
or more would pass before the soldiers
received bonus.

UPRISING IN
MEXICO FAILS
coLLAPsEs WITHOUT FIRING a
SHOT WHEN REBEL GENERAL
AGREES TO SURRENDER.
Revolt Is Said to Have Been Inspired
BY Oil Men in the Tampico Region
obregcn Issues Orders For a strict
nvestigation-Two Minor Revoits
Occurred Near Zacamixtia.

Mexico City.-The revolt, headed by
General Martinez Herrera, in the ram
pico oil region apparently has broken
down without the firing of shot. Her.
rera's request that he be permitted to
surrender has resulted in an order 10
disarm his followers, who are said TO
number about $50.
1t is possible that President Oore-
gon. who is at San Luis PotOsl, VIII
give instructions from there as to the
disposition of the insurgent General.
The center of interest throughout
the four-day period of the rising was
General Pelaez, commander OF FED
eral forces in the Tampico district.
He returned to Mexico City from the
United States only a few hours be-
fore dispatches told of the insurgent
movement, led by Herrera, who was
his trusted aid and second in COM
mand.
In view of stories that General
Pelaez was not in entire accord with
the Obregon administration there was
much speculation and not a little anx-

He announced himself to be in COM
plete harmony with President Oregon,
disavowed Herreras actions and de-
scribed the revolt as inspired by GER
tain Gil men who .wilfully misled SOL
diers into believing that the rebellion
was his personal desire.
General Pelaez has divided most OF
the past three days between the War
Office. where he was in conference
with Secretary Estrada, and his own
office, where he has been giving out
statements to the newspapers bitterly
assailing certain oil men.
Demands for strict investigation INTO
the revolt have been made, and 1t Is
asserted that Eduardo Neri, Federal
Prosecuting Attorney, has directed a
thorough inquiry looking to stern legal
measures against those guilty.
Two minor revolts occurred near
Zacamixtia, according to newspaper
advices, but only few men were IN
VOlved.

lessIy, Submitting Her Desires, AND
Not to Oppose Just Claims.

Tokyo.-Japan seems TO De an en-
pire divided on the great issues caused
Inv the invitation of President Harding
to attend conference on dlsarma-
ment and Far Eastern problems.
On one side, largely in the ranks OF
the bureaucrats, there is fear that. the
proposed conference will be dominated
hy the Anglo-Saxons and may result IN
strangling Japan's political ana eco
monte development in Asia.
On the other side is powerful I'D
eral group, which demands that ia
nan enter into the deliberations FEAR
lessly, submitting her desires reso-
lutely, combating for them with con-
fidence and not opposing just claims,
Haggling and pickering, they insist,
will ruin the cause of Japan.
Both camps agree that Japan is
facing a crisis requiring tact ana
breadth of vision. Many members OF
the Privy Council according to the
well-informed newspaper Chungal
Shogyo Shimpo are pessimistic about
the conference.
They contend that the proposal to
discuss problems and policies OF the
Far East indicate cooperation be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain in an attempt to settle inter
national questions favorably for Them
an indication of which was to be seen
| in the attitude of the English toward
the Anglo-Japanese alliance.
The invitation of China to join the
conference, it is urged further, Is adj
ditional evidence in support OF the
theory of a secret purpose on the par'
of the AngIo.Saxon nations calling
the conference. They urge that China
doubtless will strive, with the support
of England and America. for settle
ment of questions in her favor, result
ing in injury to Japanese interests IL
