Restrictions Expected to
Aid Smugglers War
On Rio Grande
fRv The Associated Press.)

SAN ANTONIO, Tex. Aug. 4.-Mex-
leo will no longer offer haven Of re-
fuge for aliens desiring to enter the
United States by way of the Rio Gran
de, according to information received by
Consul Guerra, who was instructed by
his government to exert extreme care
IN issuing passports to foreigners.
Because of undue and undesirable ac-
tivities of aliens in Mexico, the Gales
government has decided to put up some
immigration bars of it's own and lessen
the tide of foreigners who have been
sweeping into the country.
Accordingly, all foreigners who desire
to enter the southern republic must
first obtain passports from their own
consuls, and then take them to the
Mexican consuls to have them vised.
Extreme care in ascertaining the status
of the applicant will be exerted by the
Mexican consul before the passports are
vised.
This new provision does not apply to
citizens Of the United States, as they
can continue to enter Mexico without
passports.

The levee break on the Snyman ranch

river stood at l5.9 feet lise of IL feet,

The stream was at II feet and still

report from there. Flood stage at Rio
Grande City is Is feet. At Mission the
flood stage is "a feet, which shows that
the river is little more than half way
up to the bank.
1t was reported here that the rise
in the river at Mission and other points
in the upper Valley is caused by flood
waters from the Salado, in which event
another rise is expected when the floods
that have been threatening Ell Paso
Fabens and nearby country reach this
section and augment to Salado flood wa

hearing before superior Judge Joseph
B. David. She said Russell was her
second child, born 81 years ago.
question as to the condition Of her
filst child was withdrawn after an OBJ
lection by the state. Judge David sus-
tained an objection when the mother
was asked to describe the birth Of
Russell.
Defense attorneys said they would
connect the mothers testimony in re-
gard to the child's birth with the insan-
ity plea later but the court overruled
the testimony but granted permission
to withdraw the witness for the time
being.
DR.. H. S. Hubert, the first defense
alienist, then was called. He testified
that Scott's mother had been in i'll
health and his father was an alcoholic. :"
Judge David leaped from his seat.
Don't you object to that?" the
court dema1ded of the prosec stion.
The prosecution did and the court sus-
tanned them.
Dr.. Hubert said his examination con-
WINGED him the prisoner had become in
sane since he was sentenced to the gal
lows last February.
The court ruled repeatedly that
Scott's history, personal or business,
would not be admitted.
