ML REBEL ARMY, THREE THOUSAND STRONG, MENACE THE CITY OP MEXICO. REVOLUTION'S CRUCIAL TEST American Ambassador Wilson Appeals to Washington for Marines--Two Thousand Loyal Troops to Oppose Orozco's Advanoe. PANAMA BILL ADOPTED MINORITY OF HOUSE COMMITTER WILL FILE DISSENTING REPORT. Washington.--According to advices to the state department four rebel di­ visions, cautiously advancing for the crucial test of strength with the Ma- dero forces, are closing in on the City of Mexico. Fear that the outcome may prove disastrous to Americans in the capital city has quickened the ambassador to send an urgent appeal to Washington for marines to protect the legation, and similar action, upon the advice of Ambassador Wilson, has been taken by the representatives of other for­ eign countries. The latest estimate of the number of rebels on the march, however, as reported to Washington, is 3,000 troops. The most formidable rebel di­ vision Is that under the command of Mlrandi, which was organized in the state of Mexico itself. At present the army is almost under the very eaves of the capital city. Marching from the south is another detachment of 300 rebels under the command of Zapata. General Salazar hurriedly left Jua­ rez to take command of the southern division. He and his command camped at La Delicias, which Is about half way between Chihuahua and Santa Rosalia. Salgado, with 200 rebels. Is in the meantime advancing against Mexico City from Guerrero. The vanguard of Orozco's army, which left two days ago for Mexico City by way of Jlminez, Is within a few miles of that town. The federals, meanwhile, to the num­ ber of 2,000, have been rushed to Tor- reon, which is to the south of Chihuar hua, and from which town the govern­ ment troops will advance against Orozco's troops In an efTort to stay the advance upon the capital. PERCY DEFIES LEGISLATURE Reply of Statesman Rings With Ao- cusatlons of Cowardice and False­ hood--Cites Factional Hate. Washington.--Senator Leroy Percy has replied to the Mississippi legisla­ ture's demand that he resign by flatly declining to do so. He has sent his answer in a letter which rings with accusations of cowardice, falsehood and factional hatred. Senator Percy replies that when, Just after his election, he ofTered to resign his unexpired term If a primary were held in 1910 to name his succes­ sor, he limited his proposition to that year and not 1911, the year In which a primary finally was held. The primary he proposed In 1910 never was held, Senator Percy says. He declares he never did say be would resign if not elected In the 1911 pri­ mary. "But you passed your resolution with no expectation that It would be obeyed," Senator Percy writes. "You well knew that self-respect alone would render such obedience Impossi­ ble. "Not daring to ask the Investigation, or to make any allegations which might lead to It, you passed this resolution born of malignant factional hatred; merely Intended as a gratuitous Insult to me. "I shall pay no heed to your resolu­ tion; I did not receive any commis­ sion from you; I shall not lay it down at your behest; but Bhall continue to do my duty to the people of Mississip­ pi in the United States senate as God gives me to see It, conscious that my course will meet the approval of the brains and manhood of my state. "Asking that this reply be placed on the Journals of your honorable body, I remain, "LEROY PERCY."

Measure Give* President Power fa Pin Tolls on Canal and Name Zone Officials. Washington. -- The bill for the •government of the Panama canal sone and the operation of the canai was agreed to by the house committee on interstate commerce. There will be a minority report on the bill. Representatives Knowland, California; Broussard, Louisiana; Cal- der, New York, and Doremus, Michi­ gan, dissent from the toll charges. As adopted, the bill gives the presi­ dent authority to llx tolls within cer­ tain limitations, a maximum of $1.25 a ton being prescribed, with a mini­ mum not below an amount sufficient to maintain and operate the canal. No preference is given to American ships. Ship* owned or controlled by rail­ roads and operated with the intent to restrain trade, or ships engaged In any agreement or "ship ring" or com­ bine. under the terms of the bill, are prohibited from passing through the canal. The bill ratifies and legalizes all the Work done on the Isthmus of Pan­ ama by executive authority since the taking over of the canal zone, and de­ fines and legalizes the courts there until changed by subsequent legisla­ tion. It provides the government pro­ cure title to lands not yet acquired. Dismissal of the Panama commis­ sion when the canal approaches com­ pletion is sanctioned. The presi­ dent Is authorized to appoint a gov­ ernor of the Panama canal and canal zone at $10,000 a year to serve a term of four years. Authority is given the president to name all other persons necessary to the maintenance and operation of the canal, and to provide for Its sanita­ tion. SENATOR GUILTY OF B00DLING Two-Thirds Vote, Necessary to Expal Accused New Jersey Solon, Lacking. Trenton, N. J.--The vote on the question of the Innocence or guilt of Senator Richard Fitzherbert on charges of conduct incdnsistent with the duties of a state senator resulted in a verdict of guilty by a strict party vote in the senate. The eleven Repub­ lican senators voted guilty, and the nine Democrats voted not guilty. This means that Fitzherbert will not be expelled, as his expulsion would require a two-thirds vote. Fitzherbert was charged with at­ tempting to extort $3,000 from a gas company as the price of the with­ drawal of bills.

RATIFIES ARBITRATION PLAN Senate Passes Treaty Measure After Msking Many Changes In Its Original Form. Washington.--After making changes in President Taft's arbitration treaties with England and France, the senate ratified tbem by a vote of 76 to 3. The treaties as they have been left by the senate exempt questions sub­ ject to arbitration, all disputes over the application of the Monroe doctrine, all differences as to the admission of aliens to the United States or to the public schools, and all matters relat­ ing to the territorial integrity of the several states of the United States. So riddled are the treaties that It is not believed that the president will press their acceptance upon the gov­ ernments with which they were to be concluded. It had bee* expected that the treaties would be ratified as they stood by a close vote. Such an as­ sault on tbem as was made by the combined forces of th© Democrats and the progressives proved such a sur­ prise that the friends of the adminis­ tration were powerless to meet It.

STRIKE WO ENGLISH COAL CRISIS ON, WIT^f GERMAN AND FRENCH TROI^ BLES PENDING. ••• .v*# AMERICAN LABOR WAR LIKELY Southern Europe Feele Fist of Hunger --Miners There May Join Their Fellows--8ome Ray of Hope In England. London.--With 1,000,000 coal miners on strike in England, a similar num­ ber of Englishmen out of employment because of lack of fuel; 175,000 min­ ers walking out of the German min^s, to be followed In all probability by a similar number before the end of the week; all French miners out for one day as a warning to both government and people that they are dissatisfied with conditions, and a strike impend­ ing in both anthracite and bituminous mines In the United States--the world Is facing perhaps the most gigantic labor upheaval of modern times. There is increased uneasiness In London over the tie-up of the coal sup­ ply of both Great Britain and Ger­ many, but a ray of hope of a settle­ ment, at least so far as England Is concerned, broke the gloom when the miners agreed to accept the govern­ ment's proposal for a joint conference, stipulating that the principle of a mini­ mum wage be excluded. Meanwhile the completel paralysis of many branches of Industry contin­ ues, while very few trades have es­ caped being hampered in their opera­ tion. The price of coal is soaring In both England and Germany and prices of foodstuffs are rising rapidly. Riot­ ing and looting are holding sway in both countries, with unappeased hun­ ger running amuck. The trouble already has resulted in a disarrangement of the sailing: sched­ ules of many Atlantic liners. The sail­ ings of the steamers St. Paul and Oceanic, set for March 23 and 27 re­ spectively, were canceled because of the inability to get coal. Several sail­ ings to Baltimore were canceled The giant Olympic, which was already coaled, will sail as scheduled March 14. The American liners Philadelphia and New York, which sail from New York on March 13 and 20 resper tively, will not sail from Southampton as scheduled unless there is a quicker adjustment of the mite troubles than the steamship officials expect. In France the French miners had their 24-hour strike as an object les­ son. The leaders of the organization of miners wished to demonstrate to the public, to their employers and to the government that the demands were Just and that they were ready to enforce them by a strike if necessary. They particularly object to the old age system of pensions. The demands Include an eight-hour work day. a pen­ sion of two francs a day for all work­ ers over fifty years old, and a mini­ mum wage scale similar to that de­ manded by the British miners. The demonstration was made because it was felt that it would be more effect­ ive with the English and German strikes In progress. If the employers do not grant the demands a general strike of all French miners is probable within ten days or two weeks. In Germany, with the strike only In­ augurated, the price of coal advanced materially. The strike leaders say that they will he able to tie up the German industries as effectually as the British miners have done. A general strike in the three coun­ tries would have an appalling effect on Europe, although it is hoped that conditions in England will show a bet­ terment inside of a week as a result of the turn of affairs. Should the gen­ eral strike occur, the navies of the three great powers would be rendered practically useless and millions of workers, in addition to the strikers, would be thrown out of em^oyment. It Is believed here that the miners of Belgium will refuse to work if a general strike Is declared in France. There also is some disaffection among the workers in southern Europe, and the labor war may spread there, the leaders say. In fact the ramifications of the trouble seem without end, should the movement be given full sway in the four great countries-- Qreat Britain. Germany, France and the United States.
