PRESIDENT MAKES DEAD
LINE FOR SMUGGLERS
Creates a Reservation sixty Feet In

(Dy Associated Prcssl

WASHINGTON.D. c., May 30.-The
President has issued a proclamation
cerating a reservation sixty feet in
width along the entire northern bor-
der of Mexico. including the State Of
California and the territories of Arl-
iona and New Mexico. The purpose
for the reservation is declared in the
proclamation to be the suppression OF
smuggling across the international
line. 81 b, B 4.

projected reservation and such por-
lions OF 1t as are needed for roads
are reserved from the operation of
the order, y 81 &.
Since the abolition of the old 9 iona
Librep or free zone between Mexico
and the United States It has been
found increasingly difficult to prevent
smuggling across the boundary, hence

Effect of Rate Law.
B Continuing Mr.. Bryan said What
is the effect OF our new rate law which
was so hard to get? There are two
efforts so far. One is it stopped re-
bates; that Is good but what was the
pecunlary effect? Why. the railroads
kept the money they paid to the ia
vored shippers. that is. the railroads
got more money out of this. What
was the other effect? II stopped
passes What did that do? Il gave
to the railroads the money that, the
fellows used to save that rode ON
passes So far we have increased the
revenue of the road and that is all
that law has done tins far; and when
the various states said We'll, now we
have given you this advantage by
Z stopping rebates and passes, we will
reduce passenger rates and make you
divide with the people, and in some
of the states they have reduced the
passenger rates; the railroads in
some cases are so ungrateful for what
has been given them that they go
into the court to try to keep the
people from having the benefit OF the
twocent rate law

tho fight OF his life to get his bill

measure the President was forced to
