CANADIANS VIEW BONUS
AS RAID ON TREASURY
Press Commends Herald
Stand; Recalls Demand There

Special Dispatch 10 THE NEW YonK HERsLp.
OTTAWA, Ont. Feb. 1s.--THE NEW
York HERALp's editorial in which II
says "the soldier bonus as y bid for
votes in the coming election Is the most
flagrant and tho most wicked assault
on your pocketbooks ever yet made in
Congress" is reproduced in Canadian
newspapers.
There Is more than passing interest in
this. as Canada has COMO through the
experience Of having the strongest pres
sure brought to bear TO grant a bonus.
AT one stage there was an insistent de-
mand for $4,000 a man. which for more
than 400. 900 who had served overseas
was manifestly impossible for a country
OF less than 1000. 900 people.
Discussing tho American proposal to-
days Montreal Gdsctia says:
'"rhe whole proposal finds very luke
warm support In the press OF the United
states. and the opinion generally ex-
pressed Is that Congress will grant a
bonus. II IL does. for political reason.
rather than because u Is convinced that
the proposed assistance is either just
or necessary"
with an eye on the Congressional
elections in November Representatives
and Senators are weighing the soldier
vote against the resentment OF people
lpon whom new taxes would fall" says
the Toronto Globe. There are some
men in Congress who have the courage
to set their faces ageinst the bonus and
take the consequences at the polls"

CANAL DEFENSES
ALARM EXPERTS
Modern Enemy Guns Could
Level Forts Quickly,
They Declare.
THINK RANGE TOO SHORT
Fear Hostile Ships Could At
tack Without Suffering
From Shore Fire.
THINK RANGE TOO SHORT

WASHINGTON, Feb. Is (Associated
Press) Gums in existing defenses of
the Panama Canal are outranged thou
sands of yards by the rifles Of foreign
warships now af1oat. 1t is regarded by
the military experts as wholly possible
that a hostile fleet of modern ships
could lay off the Pacific entrance forts,
far out OF range. and pound the de-
Tense to pieces at their leisure without
risk to themselves.
Joint army and navy maneuvers,
planned for this winter, but abandoned
because of necessary retrenchment. were
expected, it was learned to-day. to have
demonstrated this weakness of the canal
defences in striking fashion. Forts on
the Pacific side of the big waterway
were to have been the object of attack
by the combined fleet as one phase of
the war game. The purpose was to test
in simulated war conditions the ade-
quacy of the defense and to obtain
further data for their modernization.
Under the naval limitation treaty the
maxium size of guns on existing or
future capital ships is to be limited to
sixteen inch ordnance. 1t is to be ex-
pected. many officials say. that as re-
placement proceeds on the treaty sched-
equipped with guns of approximately
that size and power.
The canal Notifications were planned
and well advanced in construction when
even the British fifteen inch naval rifld
was In an experimental stage, and when
the American naval big gun, just being
talked about, was the fourteen inch.
Since then both American and Japanese
navies have gone to the sixteen inch,
and ships armed with the twelve inch,
that was most generally In use when
the canal defenses were planned, are
rated to-day as ''pre-Jutland" and OBJ
solete-not powerful enough to lie in
the line of battle.
The "Jutland" lessons Of the great
war, however, have still another bear
ing on the canal defense problem. War
ships designed since that fight have
been given greatly increased gun ele-
vations and consequent increase in
range. They deliver what is. in re-
stricted sense, high angle fire that al
ways has been peculiarly effective
against fixed Notifications.
Army experts have taken this into
account in planning modernization of
the canal ports. Their answer is to
equip the forts with batteries equal in
power and range to the largest gun that
under the treaty can be mounted afloat.
With the stationary base from which
to fire and the far better means of
range determination and sighting which
are available ashore, they estimate that
hostile craft could be kept at arms
length without difficulty.
The situation is understood to have
been presented already to Congress. An
item to cover modernization of the
Canal Zone forts is understood to be in
cluded in the pending army estimates
as we'll as provision to permit the con-
tinued maintenance of garrison there
at all times adequate to the defense of
the canal from any attack from sea.

ADMIT ADVENTURES
HAVE MISLED THEM
Mexicans Curious to Learn of
Washington's Change.

MEXICO CRY, Feb. IS ASSOCIATED
Press) The statement made at the
White House in Washington yesterday
that while the American Government
was desirous of happy restoration of
relationship with Mexico there was no
change in the situation prevailing for
the last eleven months. was featured by
Ell Universal and Ell Democratic to-day
as the most important news of the day.
The Excelsior and El Heraldo, on the
other hand. treated the statement more
conservatively, although all the Mexico
City journals expressed curiosity con-
cerning details of what they asserted
led the United States authorities four
weeks ago to believe recognition Of
Mexico might be extended Immediately.
George T. Summeriin. American
Charge d'Affaires, to-day professed ig-
norance of any developments in recogni-
ton negotiations which might cause
belief that the United States was pre-
pared to extend recognition. 1t Is
known, however. that several Mexicans
within the last few months have gone to
Washington and have allowed the inn
preston TO prevail that they spoke in
President Obregon's name. It is be-
lieved. therefore, that when the State
Department ascertained the true status
of these individuals, who may have
promised more than the Mexican Presi-
dent previously stated it was possible to
do. the negotiations Immediately were
broken off and the status of relationship
between the two countries reverted to
that OF year ago.
IL is not believed here that the re-
ported rebel activities during the last
few days have had anything to do with
the American Governments decision TO
stand pat. Reports to-day from widely
scattered regions did not indicate that
disturbed conditions had spread to any
section beyond those previously reported.
The War office asserted that its several
can,paiens against small rebel bands
were progressing sat.s-.c-orily.

BALTIMORE, Feb. 1S.-LieJt. Ted"
Marburg. Jr.. picturesque hero of the
world war, recently married to Miss
Harriet Brown. daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Brown. is dying on his
ranch in northern Mexico. His father,
Theodore Marburg, former Minister to
Belgium. upon receiving the information
this evening cancelled an engagement
to deliver an address to the Arundel
Club and started Immediately for
Mexico.
The Lieutenant's bride had remained
in Baltimore when he went to visit his
ranch. His recent marriage in Balti-
more was his second. His first wife was
Baroness Geselle de Vavario of Belgium,
a dvorcee with a daughter three years
old. She was war refugee from Lille.
They were married at Netley. near
Southampton. England. in April, 1916.
At the time Lieut.. Marburg was just
recovering from the loss of his left leg
in an airplane crash while on duty with
the British air forces.
His marriage to the Baroness turned
out unhappily. She left him and he
brought suit for divorce on the ground
of desertion and abandonment. The de-
cree was granted August 15 last by the
Superior Court of Santa Cruz county,
Arizona. which is not far from the cattle
ranch In Mexico in which Lieut. Mar
burg and Leigh Bonsal, Jr., were inter
ested. 1t was said the Baroness had
refused to live even part of the time at
the ranch. The Marburg family became
reconciled to the idea of a divorce after
II became apparent that the tempera-
ments OF the young couple could not
possibly be harmonized. The Baroness
did not contest the suit.
Returning from Mexico later, Lieut..
MarburG received hospital treatment for
troubles which had developed from his
old wounds. but made a quick recovery
and appeared to be quite settled In his
new mode of life as a ranchman. with

Republican Opposed.

Proof of this statement is contained
in the downpour of protests against
the bonus bill which have come to
Chairman Adams of the Republican
National Committee. For ten days the
mails have let loose flood of letters
from Republicans-North. East. South
and West--addressed to the Republi-
can chairman. Ninety per cent of the
writer's not only urge the Republican
party to defeat the bonus raid. but
contain manifestly sincere threats to
vote against any Senator or Represen-
tative who "sells his vote" to the
raiders.
Republican leaders have been greatly
alarmed by both the volume and char
acter OF these threats. Combined with
the individual protests received by
Senators and Representatives against
the bonus scheme, the communications
received at the White House and by
tho chairman OF the Republican Ma
tional Committee have naturally added
TO the distress of the Congressional
mind.
The bonus promoters undoubtedly
would be astounded at the number OF
Senators and Representatives who arc

SMALL REBEL BANDS
CROSS INTO MEXICO
Three Thousand Mexican
Troops Along Border Pursu-
ing the Invaders.

MEXICO CITY, Feb. IS ASSOCIATED
Press) Thirty men this afternoon
crossed the American border into Mexico
at Columbus, N. M, according to advices
sent by Gov. Enriquez Of the State OF
Chihuahua to the War Office. They were
being pursued by Mexican Federal
troops.
Rebel forces of Rosalio Hernandez,
under close pursuit by Federal troops,
have been driven from Chihuahua
across the boundary line into the hills
of the State Of Coahuila. Last night
three Federal forces left Ciudad Guer-
zero in search of small bands led by
Pablo Amayo, Jose Moguiel and Manuel
Gutierrez.
There is no reason for the alarm OF
the United States authorities over
threats of rebellion along the frontier"
according to Acting Secretary of War
Serrano. There are no rebels of inn
I.ortance close to the boundary. Suf-
ficient troops have been placed on the
border to repel any attack and the gar
,isons at Juarez and other border points
are competent. The fears in the United
States are absurd
The Department of the Interior also
sc6ffed at reports of revolution, declar-
ing that messages received from the
Governors of all the States yesterday
described the situation as tranquil.
