' AUSTIN Texas June 25. The senate
7 practically "stood at ease" durinf the
whole of Wednesday the aesatora going
twice to the house once to listen to Got-
. ernor Broogh of Arkansas and another
time to hear Governor Ramsey of the
federal reserve bank. - -..' ?
Westbrook sent up a petition asking
for some increase in the allotments made
by the war risk insurance bureau.
The suffrage vote will come Thursday
morning. There was a rumor that the
pair of Hall against the proposition and
Witt in faVor thereof had expired; but
Senator Hall stated that this was incor-
rect and that the pair stands unless Sen-
ator Witt should appear to cast his own
vote. Senator Hall is desirous that no
senator lose his Tote because he is un-
. avoidably delayed.
. Senator Bailey of Dewitt will be In his
seat Thursday morning it is stated; hav-
ing been detained at home. Senator Car-
lock was excused until Friday because of
important business. The vote on suf-
. f rage should therefore account for 29
votes; and Westbrook floor leader for
; the suffragists claims certainly 14 af-
firmative votes with Hall . and . Witt
paired giving a majority of one for the
.ratification.
.: It is the expectation that there will be
a free debate which may be of somewhat
I. heatedy character before the vote is taken.
The senate committee Wednesday
afternoon reported favorably the resolu-
tion by Strickland pertaining to Mexican
matters and it is the expectation that
- this resolution will also bring some
aatronp statements concerning the situa-
tion in Mexico with relation to its ef-
iact upon Texas. Senators Strickland
Dudley Dayton and others are prepared
S to talk plainly.
In rerard to a statement in the original
1 Strickland resolution that the American
: forces had been ordered out of Mexico
In an Insulting manner. Senator Herts
berg Wednesday received from Major
uenerai uaoeu a telegram stating Ameri-
can troops were not insulted or ordered
out of Juares.
The house put in several hours in the
1 first reading of the eleemosynary appro-
. priation bills and there were no amend-
ments offered until near the end of the
bilL when motion was made by Til son
of Hale to strike out the $6000 per an-
num for the bureau of child and animal
protection. Murphy of Harris warmly de-
fended the item as did Thomas of Denton
but -the item was attacked by Tilson
Bertram. Veatcfa. Thompson of Hunt and
McDowra as unnecessary and duplicating
tne worn already provided lor. Murphy
1 - explained that the bureau has in Houston
placed 300 children fn homes instead of
locking them a charge upon the state. Ad-
journment was had with this item pend-
ing. ".'--'''
It is probable that Dayton will intro
duce iu the renate a resolution calling for
information on the failure to pay the men
called into the national guard last year
nnu Kuppoeea to De on tne payroll. There
hai been no payment for any of there
men and there is serious complaint. Th
senator proposes to ask tor information
and then to follow it up to the end that

CABELL DECLARES
BORDER RESOLUTION
BASED Oil ERRORS
Department Commander
Says Strickland's Stated i
ments Don't Fit Facts ?
Associated Press Report. -AUSTIN
Texas June 25. General
De Kosey CabeH commander of the
Southern department characterises as
"nnjuat and untrue" statements of the
Strickland Mexican border resolution in-
troduced in the senate Tuesday in a tele-
tram to Senator Hertsbenr of San An
tonio chairman of the senate committee
on federal relations received Wednesday
The telerram said: .
"United States troops did not rescue
the federal garrison at Juares. It was
the duty of the troops to prevent loss of
life 1st El i Paso. In pursuance of this
duty General Krwin decided from all the
information in his possession and which
later was verified that the shots falling
in El Paso were coming from Villistas
and he crossed and dispersed them. His
action had no reference to the state of
conflict between the two factions. The
statement that the Mexican officer in
charce of the Mexican rarrison at Juares
did in an insulting and most humiliating
manner order tne American troops to
withdraw from Mexican territory under
threat or anmnuauon is wholly untrue.
No order was given American troops by
the Mexican commander and no threats
made. General- Erwin's orders were in
the event it became necessary to cross
the border to prevent loss of life in El
Paso he would -withdraw the troops as
soon as this was accomplished. ; This was
done. "
"In view of the fact that Senator Ddd
ley after a full knowledge of all the facts.
bss approved theaction of our troops at
El Paso and that their action did prevent
any serious loss of life it would seem
that statements reflecting . upon them
should not be made without at ieast in
quiring of the responsible commanders as
to their truth.
. "I hsve of course nothing to say about
the politics of the resolution but am
concerned about the statement reflecting
upon the conduct and operations of troops
under my command. Had these state-
ments not been printed in the press I
would have said nothing."
