WASHINGTON, July 24-Bad news
has been received at the state depart
ment from the colony of American
negroes who went into Mexico some
time ago and settled on a tract of
land near Tlahualilo. A telegram was
received at the state department this
morning from United States Consul
Sparks, at Piedras Negras, stating
that the negroes are in deplorable
condition. These emigrants went
from the southern states of the United
States. mostly from Alabama and the
Carolinas, under most alluring prom
ises from the emigrant agents of COM
Portable homes in Mexico, but from all
accounts they have been ill-treated
and suffered great hardships from the
time of their arrival in that country.
Consul Sparks says the negroes are
scattered for miles along the railroad
without friends, homes or food, living
on mosquito beans and branch water.
Can Do Nothing.
The consul says that he can do
nothing toward their relief and he
fears trouble because the negroes are
starving. The railroads offer to make
liberal rates to take them out of the
country.
Later, the consul reports that he
has received a telegram from DR.. L.
H. Barry at Torreon, Mexico, dated
July %, to the effect that $50 of the
negroes from the colony were there in
destitute condition with fifteen
cases of contagious diseases among
them. The Mexican police have Pc
vented them from entering the town.
4 letter on the subject has also been
received at the state department. from
Representative Bankhead of Alabama
inquiring whether the government
could assist in bringing back to their
homes these members of this colony
of colored citizens who are destitute
and dissatisfied. The department has
tried In every way to afford relief in
this case, but it is well nigh power
less, and it is probable if the un-
fortunate negroes are to be saved
from starvation, private aid must be
extended to them Immediately.
To Render Assistance.
The consul at Piedras Negras has
been instructed to render any assist
ance which he can properly extend
and to report any serious develop
nents. Our charge at the city Of
Mexico has been informed also of the
state of affairs as reported by the
consul and instructed to inquire into
the treatment of the colonists. The
department of state has no funds
which can be applied to maintaining
destitute Americans other than sea-
men in foreign countries or to pro-
vide for their transportation home
and has been obliged to so inform the
consul and all those persons who have
made inquiries concerning these

Suspects Arrested.

TOLEDO, July 24-Aside from the
arrest of five suspects at Wauseon to-
day nothing of a sensational nature
has transpired in the Lake Shore train
robbery case. The detectives from this
city are searching the country for sus-
picious parties, but up to late hour
the police officials here have had no
report of their whereabouts or opera
tons. A man was arrested this even
ing on suspicion of knowing something
of the hold up but was released later,
the officials having satisfied themselves
that he was not member Of the gang.
