RETURNING TO WORK
Backbone of Mexican Fireman's Strike
 Broken


 Monterey, Mexico. Oct 13.-As re- suit of the advent of rurales upon the scene of the flreinen's strike and the decisive steps taken by the State Gov ernment in issuing an order giving 4he men three days in which to return to work or leave the city. the backbone of the strike has apparently, been broken and many of the employees have re- turned to work.
 For the first time. in six days the railroad yards have assumed a busy ap- pearance and thag freight which had congested here as a result of the strike Is being rapidly cleared up. All local trains left on schedule time, which is very gratifying not only to the officials of the Mexican Central but to the gen eral public as well.
 The men returned to work under the old conditions. the railroad officials hav- ing stated to the men that they could retuDn to work without the road hold ing Jany prejudice agains them or ac- count of the strike. Many of he strik- CTS, therefore, aVailed themselves of tho opportunity to be reinstatcd in their old rc sitiC ms.

The nassenrer train from Meridian la due here at 5:25 in the afternoon A wreck just the other side of Demopo- lis delayed tho train two hours yester- day Afternoon. The train left pemop- dis and should have reached this city at 7:so last night, but the wreck at Lake Lanier, nine miles west of here, delayed the train, and if the passef- : kArs had waited it would have been O'clock this morning before they ar rived at the union passenger station at the foot of Broad Street.
 4 freight train from Meridian com ing to this city. broke In two just at the tank at Lake Lanier. Two of the box cars were thrown on the outside of the track The third car fell sQuarely across the track and stopped all trains from passing. The passen- ger train from Meridian came along close behind the freight which had been wrecked and on account of the box car being across the track could not come on to Selma.
 This caused a delay and the train crew and the passengers on the train thought that every minute there would arrive train which would transfer them to this city. some oi the passengers waited several hours and as no train came they walked down the dirt road from Lake Lanier to a negro cabin, aroused an old negro from his peaceful sluniber and per suaded him to hitch his pair of mules to his wagon and bring them to Selma
 There were seven of the passengers on the train who came ts this city in this wagon. The night was cold and the covering that the old negro man could furnish his passengers was very scarce. as he only had two quilts that could be used as iap-robes. These two quilts were drawn for by the passen- Eern and the others kept themselves warm by huddling under newspapers. The nine miles drive from the wrecked freight train to this city was finally made and the wagon unloaded its pas pengers at the Hotel Albert q few min utes after II o'clock.
 Those passengers who stayed with the train cuddled up in the day coach pn the seats and tried to sleep A fire was kindled in the coach and an effort was made by the train crew to make the car comfortable.
 A wreck on the road where the pas sengers had about the same experience occurred at Hamburg a few months ago. The passengers on the train were kept at the wreck ten or twelve hours
