American and English Mining

Washington, July 30.-United States
Clayton at Mexico has
succeeded in securing restitution in one
of the largest embezzlement cases be-
fore the Mexican state department.
Some time ago James Brown Potter,
large American and Ell
glish interests in the Tlahaulilo Mining
Company of Mexico, appealed to the
state department for justice, claiming
that by fraudulent conspiracy some of
the directors of the company had en-
bezZled funds to the amount of over ~
100000. This, it was charged, Was ac-
by packed elections and the
bestowal of illegal powers upon one OF
the directors of the company. The fact
that some inferior Mexican officials
We're involved in the conspiracy made
it almost impossible to obtain justice
by the ordinary methods. The state de-
partment referred the case to Ambassa-
dor Clayton, and he brought it to the
attention of the Mexican government
and pressed it so vigorously that he is
now able to report that the conspirators
have been obliged to disgorge all of the
money and securities they had obtained
by their fraudulent operations.

FOREIGNERS Barred.

Omaha, Neb., July 30.-Secretary
Samuel Grace OF the machinists' I'M
ion has received from the United
States immigration bureau information
that any attempt to import men from
foreign countries to take the places of
striking Shopmen on railroads of the
company would receive the immediate
attention of the government. Mr.
Grace claims to have received infor-
nation that the Union Pacific railroad
was preparing to import men from
England and Scotland to take strikers
places in the shops of it's system. Sec
rotary Grace at once communicated
with the bureau of immigration at
Washington and received reply from
Frank p Sargent, now member of
that bureau, in which he states that the
bureau will take steps to prevent such
importations in case an attempt is
made to bring skilled men from across
the Atlantic, and that steamship COM
panies will be made liable for their
return.
AT the labor temple it was given out
early today that twenty-five men had
quit work in the local shops because
of the piece work system. and that the
grievance meetings are being held by
the non union men now at work, whom
they claim, are already dissatisfied.
