peace and Industrial prosperity were
alike dependent upon railway commu-

the election of General Diaz, Mexico
had only about $50 miles of railway

1000 miles and she has today approx
imately 10000 miles. Much of this
work has been done by costly sys-

no question of the wisdom of the in

the railways upon the Industrial
growth of Mexico, without them it
would have been practically impossible
for President Diaz to put into eff
feet those political reforms which
converted the country from land of
almost uninterrupted domestic war

Salt Lake City-A bloody crutch

John G. Barnett, the police believe
they have the real murderer of the I'M

The most Importance piece of evil

strongly incriminates Meyers, is his

The crutch exactly fits into the
wounds upon the head and hands of
the murdered man and fits so perfect
ly as to leave no room for doubt in
the minds of the police that the
crutch was the instrument used In
the death dealing blows.
In addition, several other import
ant bits of evidence, all tending to
fasten the crime on Meyers, were
secured. In the running down of the
evidence the detectives proved con-
clusively that the story told by Mey-

In many respects, that he had be-
trayed his own falsehoods in telling
conflicting stories. Equally import
ant was the result of an analysis
made by state Chemist Herman
Harms, which revealed fresh blood
stains on Meyers shoe, crutch. hat

the murderer, and from which the
bloodstained cuffs and sleeves had
been torn off, was also found In
