PLEA OFSEIIATOR
Arizona Senator Says Mexican
Bandits Caused Damages
' . Amounting to Three
Hundred Million.
x (Special to The Be.)
Washington, Jan 13. Senator
Marcus A. Smith, Arizona, ' has
joined forces with Senator William
If. King, Utah, in demanding the
liassage of a resolution calling upon
the Sfate department for information
;is "to what steos have been taken
toward securing a settlement of the
claims of American citizens .against
fexico. ' It us estimated that the
residents of Arizona and UtaJi, with
the Mormon farmers' suffering the
heaviest, have sustained' Josses of
$30,000,000 in Mexico. The claims of
all citizens of the United States
against the Mexican government
amount 'to $300,000,000, said. Sena
tor Smith. -
"As is known," said Senator
Smith, "Americans lost property nd
life in Mexico as the result of dis
orders and many American citizens,
especially farmers of Utah and of the
states bordering on Mexico, lost all
their savings invested in farms and
small ventures in , Mexico: It has
I'cen estimated that the farmers of
Utah "have claims against Mexico
reaching. a totalof $10,000,000, and
citizens of Arizona also lost heavily.
"These claims run as high as
?300,000,000 and I do not know what
the claim of British and French citi
zens amount to, although they must
not be less than half that amount.
The claims of the citizens of other
countries, especially England and
France, naturally will be' lodged with
this government for collection. Un
der the Monroe doctrine these coun
tries assent to the supremacy of the
United States in the western hemi
sphere and of course the claims for
damages offered by citizens of for
?ign nations will be left to the United
States for adjustment with Mexico.
I should not be suprised if the Eng
lish and French claims come to the
.peace table where all matters in dis
pute, with a bearing upon the war,
such as these claims are, will be dis
cussed and definite plans niade for
their adjudication."

Travel to California and
to the South is Light
The travel to Florida and Other
southern points is nothing like what
it has been during former years and
railroad officials are of the opinion
that is will continue to be. light.
With ,the roads under govern
ment operation the rates are much
higher than formerly. For in
stance, the round trip rate this year
to Miami by way of Chicago is
$112.84, and by way of St. Louis
$100.57, sfs against $78.50 last year
for either routing. To Jackson
ville and return this year the rate
by way of Chicago is $91.36, and by
was of Kansas City $79.04. Last
year the rate was $56.50.
The California business has been
hit about as hard .as that to the
south and, and presumably on ac
count of the rates. Jast year the
rate to California common points
was $90 for the round trip apd this
year it has gone to $100.03.

American Delegation Enters
r Upon First Peace Conver
sations With No Defi
nite Outline.
.
Paris, Jan. 13. The first actual
session of the, peace congress is be
ing held today, although it is offi
cially designated as one of the
series of conversations for laying
the groundwork for the structure
which will later be presented to
the formal assembly of the ' dele
gates of all the' nations.
These conversations will take up
details of the program to be carried
out what subjects will be consid
ered at the meetings, the roles - of
expert advisers and the order in
which various matters will be con
sidered. Today's meeting will probably
deal with the organization by whjch
the peace congress will function. It
is also expected to make a start
toward a decision on the question
whether the sessions will be open
or secret.
World League First.
Nothing has developed to alter
the statement that the American
delegates are primarily concerned
with the creation of a league of
nations and. the' making of a just
peace. Territorial ambitions, local
quarrels and rivalry "for economic
advantages among the European
delegates are secondary in the
minds of the Americans.
Reports that the American dele
gation has agreed on a working
plan for a league of nations and that
Jt will be one of the first things to
oe iaia Deiore ine congress nave

that as late as President Wilson's
return from Italy he was not pre
pared to lay down a working plan
and that he preferred to have other
plans originating among . the . en
tente delegates offered first'
Commission to Draw Plan.
Mr. Wilson has selected five men
connected with the American mis
sion to draw up a tentative plan
which he could compare with his
own ideas. Out of the whole it was
hoped to frame some concrete prop
osition representing the best ideas
of the American delegation. These
men have not finished their work.
American international lawyers
are convinced that the great battle
of wits will come in the discussion
of whatever machinery is proposed
to lessen the probability of war.
Their principal concern is that the
structure of the agreement, whether
it is called a league of nations or
something else, shall not be framed,
like the Hague conventions, in quali
fying phrases which would under
mine the whole structure.
Wilson Seeks Common Ground.
President Wilson and his commis
sioners are working on the theory
that Great Britain, France, Italy
and the rest of the world want some
new machinery which will prevent
war. Upon such a determination
they are fundamentally agreed. The
business of conversations which be
gin ' today is to find a common
ground upon which all can unite for
fuch a purpose.
It was reported some time ago
that the most that was hoped for be
fore Mr. Wilson's return to the
United States is a general agreement
on broad principles. There is no
reason now to change that forecast.
Session Is Lengthy.
The proceedings yesterday were
