Evidence at Investigation Indi
cates Raiders Really Were
Part of le.xican Army.
SAX ANTONIO. Tex., Jan. 23. The
organized and authorized character of
the border raids was further indi
cated in an attested confession of a
Mexican prisoner taken in 1915 and
.submitted today to the senate sub
committee investigating- the Mexican
situation. It was incorporated in a
report of Captain A. V. B. Anderson,
then commanding troop A, 12th cav
alry. The prisoner described the actions
of his organization in its movements
toward Norlas, Hidalgo county, as
more of a. regularly organized unit,
commanded by a major -of the Car
ranza army.
Similar testimony was given by
Thomas Mayfield. a former Texas
ranger, who submitted an affidavit
liy Ouadalup Cuellar that Carranza
leaders had given orders for Partici
pation in one of the raids. He de
scribed the mutiliation of one Amer
ican soldier by soldiers from the Car
ranza garrison. They cut off the
ears of the soldier and carried them
back to the garrison as souvenirs.
The statement was attested by Cap
tain Frank B. McCoy, now brigadier
general. John L. Kleiber, a district attorney
of the border, gave a description of
the attack on the train near Browns
ville, Tex., which included another
instance of the immunity German na
tionality gave. He was a passenger
on the train. In the same car were
two who claimed to be Germans. They
were not molested. .
Kleiber's testimony was corrobo
rative of that of others which tended
to indicate the raiders were in reality
detachment of the Mexican army.
Five Americans were shot on that oc
casion, the leaders of the raiding
party being Aneceto Pizano and Luis
Le La Rosa.
It also was Indicated by the witness
that the Mexicans on the American
side of the border who have been
killed or injured during the period of
the raids have been victims of their
own countrymen's activities rather
than of any deliberate attempt of
Americans to Injure them.
Olli MONEY IX REVOLT, VIEW
Intervention Declared to Be. Bad
for Mexico and United States.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23. American
Intervention in Mexico would be bad
for both countries, Manuel E. Eepena,
ex-consul at New York and Philadel
phia for Porfirio Diaz, Madera and
Huerta and an opponent of the Car
ranza government, declared today be
fore the senate foreign relations sub
committee investigating Mexican af
fairs. Intervention, he said, would cause
years of 111 feeling on the part of all
Latin-American countries.
Kspena testified that a revolution
against Diaz followed publication of
articles by John K Turner, an Amer
ican criticizing conditions in the
southern republic. Turner was asso
ciated In translation by a Mexican so
cialist, and the latter, Kspena de
clared, showed him a check from the
.Standard Oil company, which was said
to have been refused oil concessions
in Mexico by Diaz.
Espena testified that when William
Bayard Hale, who was sent to Mexico
as President Wilson's representative,
became pro-Huerta, he was supersed
ed promptly by John Llnd. The latter,
Kspena said, got a cool reception from
Huerta and wrote Secretary of State
Bryan that "Mexico City should be
humbled."

Admiral Knight took Issue with
Secretary Daniels' contention that
commanding officers of ships sunk or
seriously damaged by the enemy
should receive the distinguished serv

meritorious.

admiral said, "should never be so re

Admiral Coffman indicated that the

Efforts of African Explorer to
Prove Use of Language by
Apes Is Recalled.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Jan. 23.
Richard L. Garner. African explorer
and author, who soma years ago an-
ounced that he had found several
sounds approximating a monkey lan
guage, died here last night.
WASHINGTON D. C, Jan. 23.
Officials of the national zoo recalled
vividly today the experiments of Dr.
Garner in the effort to discover
monkey language. They said that
at one time he confined himself in
a cage in the hope of distinguishing
the various "eeks and "wa-hoos
of the monkey and gorilla.
Dr. Garner, by means or a phono
graph, obtained four or five sounds,
which, when repeated to the animals.
indicated that they really meant
words of speech. '
NEW YORK. Jan. 23. Professor
Richard L. Garner, scientist, who died
at Chattanooga. Tenn., today spent
30 years in travel in the French Con
go and other portions of South and
Central Africa, studying the lives and
habits of animals as a representative
of the Smithsonian institution of
Washington, the Now York Zoological
society and other organizations.
He attracted wide attention in 1905
when he announced that be was go
ing to West Africa to study the
means of communication used by
apes. He made several trips in an ef
fort to reduce the ape language to
writing, and last May announced here
that he had found a monkey In the
Congo that talked to him.
A controversy was started among
naturalists as to whether he was mis
taken. At this time Professor Gar

F. F. KAXE BLAMES PALMER
Anti-Radical Policy Declared Invi
tation for Real Danger.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 23. Francis
Fisher Kane, United States attorney
for eastern Pennsylvania, who ten
dered his resignation yesterday, did
so, he said today, for a principle.
In his letter to the president he
said:
"I am obliged to take this step be
cause I feel out of sympathy with the
anti-radical policies of Mr. Palmer
and his methods of carrying them
out."
Mr. Kane also sent a letter to At
torney-General Palmer, disagreeing
with Mr. Palmer's statement that
there does not seem to be any ques
tloiuof policy involved In the raids.
"As I read the manifesto of the
communists," he said, "it does not
expressly stand for the overthrow of
this government by force, and Jt is
surely a question of policy, not one
of law, whether the department of
justice should take the initiative and

report within a few weeks.
Refering to the requirements for the
navy cross. Admiral Knight said:
"One of the most unfortunate re
sults of the controversy which has
grown out of the list of awards re
cently published, is the tendency to
regard the cross as an award of little
value. To correct thia entirely false
and mlschevious tendency, it should
be sufficient to emphasize the fact
that the cross is the only award pro
vided by congress for heroism,
whether in conflict with the enemy or
not if less In degree than that which
would Justify the award of the medal
of honor. It is also the orrty one pro
vided for distinguished service not In
a position of great responsibility."
Baglcy Cane Is Discussed.
Admiral Knight said that In the
case of Commander D. W. Bagley. Sec
retary Daniels' brother-in-law, no dec
oration was recommended for any cir
cumstance In connection with the sink
ing of the destroyer Jacob Jones be
cause Commander Bagley did not en
gage the enemy. A navy cross was
recommended tor tne oincer, ne saiu,
for good seamanship displayed in tak
ing off the crew and passengers of the
torpedoed British steamer urama.
Commander Bagley was not recom
mended by his immediate superior, he
said, for any decoration In connection
with the sinking of the Jacob Jones.
Officers whose vessels were tor
pedoed, but who by good seamanship
and discipline, succeeded in saving
their ships earned the D. S. M-, Ad
miral Knight declared.
"It Is true that the board recom
mended awards for several of the
officers referred to by the secretary
as commanders of ships which were
lost or seriously damaged by enemy
submarines or mines," Admiral Knight
said. "But in each case there was a
special reason. Captain Vernon of the
Cassin. Captain Dlsmukes of the
Mount Vernon, Captain Chase of the
Minnesota, and Captain Graham of the
Finland saved their ships by excel
lent seamanship and discipline, after
the ships were disabled."
Other Awards Viewed.
No Information was available to
guide the board in making recom
mendations for Captain Satterlee of
the Tampa, and Commander Ghent of
the Antilles, nor were any circum
stances known that would justify
such award. Admiral Knight said.
Secretary Daniels awarded U. S. M.'s
to both officers. The Tampa and
Antilles were torpedoed and sunk.
"Commander Foote's case is the only
one in which the board recommended
the award of a D. S. M. for circum
stances connected alone with . the
actual loss of a ship," Admiral
Knight said, "and this recommenda
tion was based chiefly upon the rec
ommendations of Admiral Gleaves and
Admiral Mayo."
The award recommended for Cap
ful n Christv. the admiral said, was
based not only on his conduct at the J
time of the sinking of his ship, the
armored cruiser San Diego, but for
his later service in command of the
battleship Wyoming. Commander Conn
