bORAH FOLLOWS
. UP INQUIRY IN
RUSSIAN s CASE
Institutes What He De-
scribes as a Long Range
Examination" Through
State Department.

Washington, May s. Senator
Borah, republican, Idaho, instituted
from the foor of the senate today
what he described as a. "long-range
examination" through state de-
partment channels of Boris Bakh-
meteff, last accredited Russian am
bassador to the United States. He
did this, he explained. as a result
of the action of the state depart
ment in advising the senate that
NJ. Bakhmeteff was entitled to the
privileges and immunities of a
diplomat, and therefore could not
be required to appear before the
senate labor committee in its in
vestigation of Russian affairs, par
ticularly as involving the activities
of General Gregorie Semenoff,
anti-bolshevik leader in Siberia.
Hughes Is Silent.
Included in the questions were
several addressed to the state d.
partment, but later when these
were called unofficially to the at
tention Of Secretary Hughes, that
official declined to comment on
them. 1t was indicated, however,
that If the questions were present
ed formally and officially. the de-
partment would give them imme-
diate consideration.
The questions directed to M.
Bakhmeteff covered a wide range,
and asked information regarding
his credentials. the disposition of
the American loan Of s1S7,000,000
through M. Bakhmeteff to the
Kerensky government of Russia,
and the object of the visit and ac-
tivities of General Semenoff in this
country.
Telegraphs Attorneys.
During the day Senator Borah
announced that he had telegraphed
eemenoffs attorneys in New York
that he was willing the anti-bolshe-
vik leader should have all the hear
ings he desires, although he indi-
Gated that he would await DISPOSE
ton OF civil case against the gem
eral in New York before calling
him to testify before the labor
committee.
Later in the day. attorneys for
Semeneff handed Senator Borah
letter in which they respectfully
and firmly" insisted that the gen
eral be summoned" to testify as
to his presence In this country.
Failure to call him, the letter add
ed. would be "most unfair and in
consistent with American stand

SHERIFF TAKES
BANDIT CHASER
into CUSTODY

Reports that Joe Virgins, the
man who shot up Gallup some
months ago. was in the Manzano
and Sandia mountain section,
proved too much for Francisco Sc
dillo's peace Of mind and few
days ago he started out to "get"
the bandit.
Sedillo has only been home from
the state institution at Las Vegas
for a short time. Preparatory to
the bandit hunt. Sedillo took off
his shoes. loaded up his old-time
war rifle, which is six feet long,
sharpened up the bayonet. which
goes with the relic OF almost for
gotten wars, bridled his horse, then
shouldering the rifle he started out
on the man hunt.
Residents in the Sabine and Juan
Tomas neighborhood reported the
bandit hunt to Sheriff Tony Ortiz
yesterday and Deputy Sheri1i
Charles Banghart drove out to the
mountains and after talking Things
over with Sedillo decided to take
him into custody.
When Banghart arrived at Juan
Tomas, where Sedillo lives in MS
ca bin. he found the bandit hunter
seated at his table eating. his
army rifle was held closely in his
lap, the cartridge box near at
hand. and the newly sharpened
bayonet within easy reach.
II believe I'll bag Joe Virgins
before the next sun goes down,
sedillo Dragged and then added
that he had eaten so much chill
that he was burning up and would
have to catch bandit to get cooled
OFF. He will probably be given a
hea ring in the district court today
to determine his sanity.

will probably be decided at a meet
ing which has been called at the
Chamber of Commerce parlors to-
night at 1880 o'clock. Citizens of
the city and state are urged to at
tend the meeting.
Petitions have been signed by
large. number of persons asking
that the project be considered by
the federal department of agricul-
ture and the Rio Grande Reclama-
ton association has been started to
help boost the idea. Indications
are that II New Mexicans show
enough interest in the reclamation
project, 1t will be included in the
work to be done along that line
by the reclamation service.
The reclaiming Of the middle Rio
Grande valley will solve the river
flood problem: the drainage prob
lem and the irrigation problem for
all effected lands between White
Rock canyon and San Marclal, and
will also solve. to a great extent,
the silt problem which threatens

FRANCO BRITISH
RUPTURE REPORT
UNTRUE, CLAIMS
Lloyd George Did Not Say
That France and England
Would Have to Go Their
Separate Ways.

Genoa, May (by the Associated
Press Premier Lloyd George
appeared this afternoon at a meet
ing which had been arranged FOR
the British American correspond
ents, apparently for the purpose
chiefly of denying reports appear
ing in British and French papers
that Mr.. Lloyd George and M. Bar
thou came near the breaking point
Saturday and that the British pre-
mier had virtually announced that
the entente was finished and that
France and England must go their
separate ways.
Mr.. Lloyd George declared that
the differences between him and
M. Barthou in no sense constitute
ed breach between the allies
and that the stenographic record
OF their conversation did not dis
close any such statements as at
tributed. to him. This record, how
ever; was not available to the cor
respondents, and Mr.. Lloyd George
did not comply with the suggestion
that it be shown to the press.
He reiterated the statement that
the Genoa conference may marx
q turning point in European history
and asserted that success or failure
depends largely on the attitude the
Russians take in their reply to
the allied memorandum, and that
consideration Of the non-aggres-
sion pact and continuation Of the
negotiations were contingent on
the nature of the Russian reply.
