OF the 500 Living Here Few
Know Of Trouble With q. s.
" HOMBRO SANCTO."
Was Their Reply to All Ques-
tiOns by Reporter.
An Interpreter Could Not Find
Ounce of Patriotism in Bunch.

The unpleasantness existing between
the governments of the United States
and Mexico doesn't seem to be WORRY
ing some 400 or 500 Mexicans who are
temporarily residing in Topeka and
working for the railways.
What do you think about this
troupIe, anyway" inquired a reporter
Hombro sancto dimi neunti." re-
pied the said laborer, or words to that
effect.
Then the reporter tried 1t out on an
other and still a third and once more
on the fourth. And they all said things
to the same effect, as they shook their
heads
Finally an interpreter was found in
Al remote section of the railway yards.
Inc query was put, this time In the
lingo of the modern Aztec. The Mexi-
can replied something like this:
"Uno duey homero salvages gonto
svaramata jjuropues finiates rowt-
nesdge hombro scintimissi trobove-
merto wenatiklt hnalvezerestika duemo
raticlides fuerenemetized hottomorello
chiltt con carni epozotic freageM cor
rero."
Then the interpreter turned to the
reporter, shaking his head and said:
HE says he don't know"
A further investigation with the in
terpreter's aid developed that none of
the Mexican laborers were aware of
the turmoil and talk of war between
their nation and the United States of
America.
There are probably 500 Mexicans
on the Santa Fe and Rock Island.
More are being brought in every few
days and each day a few leave.
Most Of the road Improvement work
is done by the Mexicans and the roads
keep a big gang of these laborers in

UPPERS TO BE LOWER.
Question of Pullman Rates Put Up to
Commerce Commission.

Washington, Nov. 17.-Reform of
sleeping car abuses by government
requirement that a less toll shall be
exacted for an upper berth than for
lower is expected by students of rail-
road problems to be the eventual out
come of proceedings now under way
before the interstate commerce COM
mission.
The three cases of Lotus against the
Pullman company along with the sepa-
rate cases of the state of Indiana,
Oklahoma Kansas and Arkansas
against the Pullman company will be
heard before Interstate Commerce
Commissioners Lane and Clark at Chi
cago on November so.
COMPLAINT was filed today by the
Memphis, Tenn, freight bureau, the
Dinswarnger company and George I.
Drew Glass company of Memphis with
the interstate commerce commission
against the ST. Louis and San Fran
csico and other railroads. alleging that
the freight rates on plate glass and
rough ribbed glass carried from Mis-
souri, to Tennessee were unjust and in
favor of Louisville, Cincinnati, Chicago
and Richmond.
Rates VIII Be Reduced.
Chicago, Nov. 17.-Rates on Pull
man berths viii be reduced by the
Pullman company in practically all the
territory where the cars of the concern
travel.
This is the assurance which the ofh-
GERS of the company have given to the
interstate commerce commission.
Although no action has been taken
by the company toward establishing
lower rates, this conclusion was
reached by the directors informally at
the annual meeting of the company.
No further opposition will be offered
to the principle laid down by the inter-
state commerce commission in its re-
cent order that there should be a diff
ferential in the rates for uppers and
lowers.
The actual reduction of the rates,
however, depends on the action of the
interstate commerce commission on it's
rehearing of the evidence in the LOTUS
case, which has been enjoined pending
a rehearing and the consideration of
additional evidence, the commission
ordered reductions in the upper berths
and lesser cuts in the charges for low
ers, except to Chicago

PAID TO STAY AWAY.
CavaIieri Said to Have Received $685.
900 From the ChanIers.

New York, Nov. 17.-Lina CavaIieri
is keen business woman. Despite the
fact that she probably could not get
an engagement in America, she has ac-
this time, mere tri1e of $4,000 or so.
But she didn't have OF say II love you
to get it. She merely had to declare:
Il agree not to come to America to
sing. in the operatic and concert season
of 1910-1911"
As guarantee of good faith she af-
fixed her interesting signature to a
legal document pledging that she would
remain away from America and not
appear to add further confusion to the
rest of the Chanlers, who haven't rel
ished their relative, the sheriff, having
plunged them into publicity. This state
ment is vouched for by a close friend of
the CnanIer family.

cerning the morality of the people he
can certainly express himself"
