S. Forces Within City Called Probable. FOOCHOW S CAPTURE TOMORROW IS LIKELY Lack of Funds Hasalledie Both Peking and Manchur- ian Governments. London, March 5 (By A. P.).—Another general strike is threatened in Shanghai for tomorrow, says a dispatch from that city to the Sunday Express. The dispatch adds that it is expected that Soochow, now held by the Shan- tungese, will fall before the Cantonese on Monday. The Sunday Express correspondent gays that he understands that Admiral Clarence S. Williams, commander in chief of the Asiatic fieet of the United States navy, and the American consul in Shanghai are not entirely in agree- ment with regard to retaining Ameri- can marines indefinitely aboard the transport Chaumont, where they have been uncomfortably cramped since Feb- ruary 12. The correspondent says that Admiral Williams’ desire for the ma- tines to come ashore may prevail as goon as billets can be obtained. The Sunday Express correspondent in Peking reports that the military and political situation in the north of China is precarious because of a lack of funds. Members of the cabinet per- sist in submitting their resignations, but the complete reorganization of the ‘cabinet is still undecided. Reports from Manchuria indicate a steady depreciation in currency, the chief of staff there urging the imme- diate return to Mukden of Marshal Chang Tso-Lin, who now is conduct- "img a drive through the province of ‘Honan against the Cantonese, to stabil- “ize the situation. The expense of his campaign, it was declared, is bankrupt- ing the provincial exchequer. The Moscow correspondent of Ber- lingske Tidendes says that Shangtung troops’) have seized the soviet steamer Pamiat Lenina, which was en route to Hankow, an Exchange Telegraph dis- pateh from Copenhagen-reports. The passengers, including’ several Plomatic couriers, were detained and e vessel was immediately utilized asa ‘troop ship. Gen. Butler and Staff Sail. San Francisco, March 5 (By A. P.). Brig. Gen.

Copies of The Washington Post mailed to Mexico in the usual way, have been returned with the mark “Refused entry. By the Mexican government.” The Post, dated February 22, 1927, contains a leading editorial on “The Nicaraguan Revolution,” in the course of which it is stated: that the Sacasa revolutiontsts, supported by arms smuggléd from Mexico, can not hope to make further headway against the constitutional govern- ment of Nicaragua. The early collapse of the revolution is to be expected.” This copy was refused entry by. Calles. The issue of February 23, likewise forbidden entry by the Mexican gov- ernment, contains on the editorial page a cartoon of Calles standing on the prostrate form of an “American ranch owner in Mexicd,” and shouting “Viva Senor Borah!” while confiscated American property is shown in the ’ background. The Calles policy of suppressing unfavorable comment. from reaching Mexico through foreign newspapers is squarely in line with the policy at one time enforced by the soviet government of Russia. Bolshevik agents carefully scanned all articles in the foreign press, and nothing unfavorable to the sovict regime was permitted to enter the country. ‘It is evident DEMOCRATIC. SENATORS EVADE ORY LAW ISSUE Caucus After Discussion De- clines to Take Partisan Stand on Prohibition. CALLED STATE QUESTION! (By the Associated Press.) After full and frank discussion, Sen- ate Democrats in party conference de- cided yesterday against any pronounce- ment on the prohibition issue.. “In the very nature of the question, it can not be made a party issue,” said a statement issued later by Chairman Robinson, of Arkansas, summarizing the results of the conference. “It is recognized that differences exist in the various States in political subjects and that these differences re- specting prohibition are not to be re- garded as partisan in nature.” Senators said the discussion of the subject was quite general and that while no motion or resolution was acted upon, it seemed to be practicaily the unanimous opinion that the party as a whole ought not to create the is- sue, leaving the question to the Demo- crats of the various States. There were suggestions, senators added, thatthe whole subject could be left to the next Democratic national convention at which a presidential nominee will be chosen and that there eack State would have-its representa- tives to voice its opinions and conclu- sions. Presidential candidates were not mentioned in the conference, it was stated by participants. Senator Glass, of Virginia, addressed the conference at length against mak- ing prohibition a party issue. He con- tended that it was a State quegtion purely and that it had no place in the national party platform. TELLEZ IN SAN ANTONIO; MORE NOTES EXCHANGED Diplomatic Situation Between U. S. and Mexico Still Isa Mystery. CLOSE WATCH FOR ARMS San Antonio, Tex., March 5 (By A. P.)—Reticence of Manuel C. Tellez, Mexican Ambassador at Washington, who passed through San Antonio to- night en route to Mexico City, left the American-Mexican diplomatic situation still a mystery. “IT am not answering any questions,” was the Ambassador’s sharp. reply when pressed to comment on the sig- nificance of his trip to Mexico. Asked if the mystery note sent to Mex- ico City by the State Department at Washington recently had any influence on his departure, the Mexican repre- sentative gyrated his hands and utter- ed an emphatic “no.” (Special Cable Dispatch.) Mexico City, March 5.—Various po- litical “groups have recently offered their, support to’ President Calles. “in |. the event of estrangement in the rela- tions between the United States and Mexico.” The “Obregon bloc” in con- gress today presented a memorial td the president declaring: “We believe it to be our duty to manifest to you our support of what- ever decision you may make in the problem with the American govern- ment, which has been attempting to divert us from our revolutionary laws.” Both Excelsior and Universal feature the foreign office’s and the state de- partment’s denials of the rumors that the United States had asked for the recall of Ambassador Tellez.

Wilkie, of South Dakota, veteran miner and road constructor. here, and protected by Lieut. Michael Moran, of the United States navy, and Maj. Thomas Clarke, of the United States marine corps, the mixed liberal-con- servative peace mission returned this afternoon. The commission met Gen. Moncada, the liberal military chief, and Juan B. Sacasa’s minister of public works, Senor Sandoval, at Muy Muy, 50 miles’ rough ride south of Matagalpa. May Pay Off Liberals. The liberal members of the’ mission, Gustavo Arguello Cervantes, Antonio Medrano and Carlos Morales, urged Gen. Moncada to lay down his arms, intimating that all elements desired peace and that the Diaz government was prepared to grant an amnesty and pay the troops off, and probably would give positions for the prominent liber- als, together with a lump sum toward the liberal army’s costs. Gen. Moncada after considering the proposal stated he was not indisposed to treat for peace, but he refused to commit himself until he got in touch with Senor Sacasa. But he demanded that the negotiations be made through American Minister Eberhardt and the conferences he held at the American legation, with the American Minister presiding. Managua...

Clements, 23 years old, a teacher in the Pierce public school and living at 1327 Maryland avenue northeast, was fatally injured when an automobile she was driving was in collision with another car at First and Florida avenue northwest, shortly before 7 o’clock last night. Miss Clements was on her way to her home to meet her brother John, 21 vears old, who was going with her to 8t. Aloysius’ church to start a novena. John, who was nearly prostrated with grief sighed: “We were going to church to ask for a special blessing and this is what we get.” Harry Barton Hart, 48 years old, a service manager with the Potomac Elec- tric Power Co., driver of the other car, was arrested and taken to the Sec- ond precinct station. He later was re- leased with the understanding that he would appear at the coroner’s inquest tomorrow morning. Miss Clements died at Sibley hospital a few minutes after she arrived there. Her head was almost severed. Dr. Samuel M. Becker, of the hospital staff, who treated her, said she died probably from a broken neck. Her left arm and shoulder wer: fractured. 3 Other Women in Car. Three other women were in the au- tomobile which Miss Clements was driving. One of them was Mrs. E. H. Griffith, 1430 G street northeast. She and the other two suffered nothing more than shock. Hart suffered a strained back as a result of the accident. The crash took place in the center of the intersection, and Miss Clements was thrown through a window. Joseph Leitch, 17 years old, 4911 Seventh street northwest, was the first person to reach the scene.
