SENATE VOTE ON
WOODLOCK STILL
KEPT SECRET
(By Dispatch A. p. wire)

WASHINGTON. March 27.-Repeat-
ed efforts to have the public let in
on the deep secret Of how senators
voaed yesterday on the nomination
of Thomas F. Woodlock of New York
as a member of the Interstate Conn
merce Commission, were blocked to-
day in the senate by practically the
same combination of republicans and
democrats that confirmed the nomi-
nation.
The senate wrangled over the ques.
ton for more than two hours and
then voted, "a to 30, against going
back into executive session to de-
eide the issue of whether the vote
on confirmation. should be made pub
lie as usually is done in the case Of
votes on highly controverted appoint
ments made by the president.
Senator's Cameron, of Arizona, and
Jones, New Mexico, voted against
the proposal.
The vote to confirm Woodlock was
50 to % totaling 13 more than the
total vote on ahe question of an ex-
ecutive session.
The row was precipitated by SEN
ator Blease, democrat, South Caro-
limo who, with Senator Norris, re-
publican, Nebraska, asked unanimous
consent that the vote on WoodlocK
be made public. Instant objection was
offered by Senator Curtis, of Kansas,
the republican floor leader, and Sem

the ground that two senators who

U. S. REQUESTS
PUNISHMENT OF
MEXICO BANDITS
CBy Dispatch a. p. wire)

WASHINGTON, March p. - The
Washington governments is taking
note of the recent anti-American
outbreak in Mexico. but there is
no indication thus far whether 1t
will feel impelled to bring strong
diplomatic pressure to bear at Mex
clio City. 1t was disclosed today
that American Ambassador Sheffield
had delivered a note to the Mexican
foreign office, asking that quick
action be taken to capture and pun
ish thebandits who kidnapped and
robbed a group of American mining
engineers in Durango.
The state department declined to
discuss any detail of the negotia-
lions thus begun, or to predict
where they might lead. The impress
sion was given, however, that the
action of the ambassador was not
to be regarded as constituting
protest" within the meaning of that
term as used in diplomacy.
Despite the feeling that has grown
up over the new Mexican land and
petroleum laws, now subject OF
dispute between the two countries
officials at the state department are
disposed to look upon the recent
succession of outrages against Amer
leans in Mexico as merely recur-
renee of banditry for which the
Gales government cannot be held
too strictly accountable.
Whether the American ambassador
will make any representations re-
garding treatment of the other
Americans involved in the recent
outbreaks, remains undisclosed and
apparently is to be left to Shef-
fields own judgment.
