MEXICO CITY, Juljr 13—The Mex
ican Senate today ratified the treaty
recently concluded at Niagara Falls,
Ontario, between the representatives
of the United States and Mexico an<T
Provisional President Huerta is ex
pected to approve the treaty some
time today, after which he will re
sign and lead the troops against Vil
la or flee from the country to Eu
rope.
Under the treaty the United States
government has waived all rights to
demand a war indemnity or other
international satisfaction, and has al
so abandoned its first demand for a
salute to the American flag for the
insuit of the capture of American
marines at Tampico and the failure
to perform, which caused the occu
pation of Vera Cruz by the United
Slates marines.

the American troops from Vera Cruz

is left for a decision after the in
ternal differences are settled and
peace is established in Mexico, but
the American government will not
demand an indemnity because of the
expense of keeping the troops in the
city.
The American government is
pledged to immediately recognize the
provisional government established
in Mexico City through the efforts of
the mediators and shal limmediately
restore diplomatic relations.
Senor Carbajal, the present chief
justice of Mexico, who was sworn in
as fbrei.gn secretary on Saturday,
will become provisional president
this afternoon or tomorrow accord
ing to the present plans of the Mex
ican government.

city, arriving here disheveled and
dirty and was rushed under a strong
guard of American troops from the
Mexican lines to the North German

rival.
All of the men are quitting the
country and will go direct to Europe

VERA CRUZ, July 13—Senor Ruiz,
who has been substitute secretary of
foreign affairs for Mexico under the
provisional presidency of Huerta,
reached here today en route to Eu
rope and in a statement given to
the newspapermen here he stated that
Huerta was resigning in order to pre
vent civil war in Mexico City and to
prevent its capture by the rebels,
which now seems certain.
Ruiz stated that he did not know
what Huerta’s plans were but had
understood that he would leave the
country as soon as he could turn the
reins of government over to Carba
jal. Reiz doubted the story that
Huerta would lead the federal army
against the rebels.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y., July 13.—
Progressive leaders from all parts of
the United States are wiring or call

the party not only in New York, but
in every state, will be destroyed.
The state Moosers, however, are
equally determined that the colonel
shall run, as they realize that unless
he heads the ticket the party is
doomed in this state and almost as
surely in the nation, as they have
carefully canvassed the situation and
predict the election of Whitman by
a tremendous vote no matter who
is nominated on the Democratic and
Progressive tickets excepting Roose

It was at first expected to have

to send a private vessel, as the Bear
is needed in the Arctic, where she
takfes an annual cruise along the
coast, visiting the native villages and
watching for lawbreakers among th*'
whalers, who but for tbe watchful
eye of the cutter officials would
outrage the native women, as they
have done for many years until the

Iowa Congressman Claims Revenue
Cutters Are Used as Private
Yachts By Politicians
WASHINGTON, July 13—Con
gressman Good from Iowa, Republi
can, today demanded the impeach
ment of Secretary William McAdoo
of the Treasury department because
of the charge that he is using the
revenue cutters stationed at Boston
not only as private yachts for him
self and family, but also for the use
of the Democratic politicians of the
bean city, who frequently take week
end fishing trips on the government
boats, which are supposed to be
hunting derelicts or making rescues
of shipwrecked crews.
The Iowa congressman claims that
the cutters are not for the private
use of the politicians in power, but
are for the service of the people and
insists that the practice be stopped
and that McAdoo be impeached for
violation of his oath of office.
McAdoo is a son-in-law of Presi
dent Wilson.
