SAN DIEGO, Cal, March 13.-The
coming of soldiers into Lower Cali

gone to the new miaes seems to have
brought trouble. Since the strike was
made Mexicans, Indians and Ameri-
cans have been working indiserimi-
nately without aid from the govern
ment. With the soldiers came Secretary
Cola, representing the governor of the
peninsula, with instructions to collect
recording and announcement fees from
every working mine that made an
nouncement of business. All placer
workers must pay $3.50 to denounee a
tYenty-meterS square Claim, and after
deciding TO take permanent possession
OF the same, to pay an additional $3.50.
Complaints went up from Americans
and Mexicans alike. The miners wrote
the governor. The governor reported
that he could make no reduction, and
Cd this account many newcomers left
and more are expected TO leave.
