United States Takes Immediate Steps
to Prevent Mistreatment.
Washington.-The state depart
ment has acted promptly in the case
of William P. Pittman, an American
engineer, who is said to have been
captured by the Madriz forces while
operating with the Estrada army.
The following Is paraphrase of
kilograms sent by the state depart
ment to the American consulates at
Managua and Bluefields and to Com
mander Gilmer of the Paducah:
There Is a newspaper report from
San Juan del Sur to the effect that
William P. Pittman, an American
citizen, who Is alleged to have laid
mines while operating with the Es-
trada forces, has been made prisoner
by the Madriz forces and Is about
to be tried by court martial. 1t is I'M
necessary to point out that this gov
eminent will jealousy scrutinize the
treatment accorded him which must
be humane and regular. You will ina
mediately make inquiry and report
to the department"

MADRIZ, ROUTED FROM BLUEFIELDS,
is BEING PURSUED BY GENERAL MENA

Washington.-The complete route
Of the Madriz forces is shown by be-
lated kilograms received at the state
department here. These kilograms
confirm the reports of the total de-
feat of the troops which have been
operating in the neighborhood of
Rama.
A despatch received from Consul
Moffat at Bluefields, says the whole
of the Madriz forces operating in the
the vicinity of Rama had abandoned
their position after several hours Of
severe fighting and were in full re-
treat, having left many dead and
wounded on the field and that Gen.
Mena, in command of the Estrada
army at Rama, was in hot pursuit.
All dispatches received during the
last several days from the east coast
of Nicaragua indicate that the Ma
driz armies at Bluefields and at Ra-
ma practically have been destroyed
and that the end of fighting on the
east coast, at least, seems to be in
sight So far as known at the state
department the only force which Ma
driz now has on the east coast ex-

THREATS OF ROADS

Improvements to the Amount of Two Hundred Mil
lions Called Off Because of Injunction

Little Rock, rk.-Two hundred
million dollars of construction work,
which had been planned by railroads
throughout the United States, will
be abandoned and no further new
work will be undertaken because of
the injunction of the United States
government against the increase in
rates made, according to M. M. Rich
ey. general superintendent of the
Iron Mountain railroad. with officers
here.
The government is controlling the
railroads in every way except paying
the operating expenses, Mr.. Richey
says, and 1t practically amounts to
government ownership.
A number of railroads are prepar-
ing to cancel contracts for construc-
ton work, says Mr.. Richey. 1.-THE
New York Central has already can
celled or held up contracts for work
amounting to about $4,000, 1000"
The injunction is the result of
rotten politics. Mr.. Richey believes,
and he says that If congress had ad-
journed month ago the railroad
would have been much better off.

ARCHBISHOP CALLS ON CATHOLICS
TO PREVENT REVIVAL OF RAGING

New Orleans. Ble1k,
whose influence two years ago forced
the passage of the LocEe anti-gam-
bling law, has destroyed whatever
hope the advocates of racing may
have had of a restoration of the race
track in New Orleans. He called on
the Catholics of his diocese to pre-
vent the perpetuation of what he
calls this contemplated crime
against our children, our homes, and
everything else worth living and
striving for
1t is expected that politicians and
others who favor racing will recog-
nize that the archbishop's utterance
means the death of the present eff
fort to procure a modification of the
Loke law. 1t was the churchman' s
influence, arrayed against that OF
racing advocates supported by Mayor
Behrman and the city organization,
that caused Senator Robert. O'Connor
representing the district In which the
Mayor lives, to cast the vote that
made the Locke measure law.

Castrillo, Washington:
Yesterday Gen. Mena defeated

pletely destroying the enemy. We ex-
pect that Gen. Mena will capture
Gen. Chavarria and his staff, who are
in flight up the river, at 81 Muele de
Las Buelles. Gen. Mena is rushing
troops overland to head off the re-
treat while the fugitives are being
followed up the river by Captain Co
ton and armed force.
Further advices to Senior Castrillo
state that Gen. Chavarria and his
staff were absolutely without guard,
none of the army having been saved
to aid them in their retreat.

Washington.-Pre or other
high officers of probably dozen rail-
roads attended the rate conference
with President Taft, early this week.
The request for a conference came
from President e P. Ripley of the
Atchisol, Topeka G. Santa Fe rail-
way. Mr.. Taft promptly acceded.
Official circles declined to discuss
the representations upon which the
desire for meeting were made. Half
dozen presidents of western roads,
some of whose tariffs recently were
enjoined by the government were
here and they were joined by repre-
sentatives Of prominent roads east OF
the Mississippi.
The department Of justice gave
to the press without comment resolu-
tons adopted by the Illinois Manu-
facturers' Association at Chicago call
ing on the people to uphold the
hands of the government and de-
handing that the whole question of
the advance or reduction of freight
rates be left to the interstate COM
merce commission.
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1910-06-09

Since that time there have been in
dics tions that the city organization
has striven for the political destruc-
ton of O'Connor, believing that with
him out of the way, and with several
other political changes favorable to
the race movement, something might
be done at this session of the legis-
lature toward the establishment of
"clean racing"
In his statement the archbishop
drives straight at the heart of the
movement for a modification of the
Locke law, asserting that "clean
racing is as impossible as clean
brothel."
While no progress toward securing
votes for a modification of the Locke
law has been discerned at Baton
Rouge, the archbishop, assuming the
agitation in New Orleans to mean a
strong effort at the state capitol,
took time by the forelock and an
nounced his stand against all plans
for changing the law.

Washington.-The Senate passed
the administration railroad bill. 1t
had been under consideration for
more than twelve weeks, and prac-
tically no other business except APP
preparation bills were considered in
that long period. Only twelve votes,
all Democrats, were recorded against
the bill. The practical unanimity
with which the measure was passed
was due to the radical changes made
in it from the form in which it was
drafted by Encouragement Wicker
sham, following numerous confer
ences at the White House on the sub
ject of amending interstate commerce
laws. All of the insurgents" who
opposed many features of the orig
inal bill, voted for it.

SENATE PASSES RAILROAD BILL
AFTER TWELVE WEEKS CONSIDERATION

Through the elimination Of pooling

of the adoption of many amendments

the Democrats express themselves as
favorable to the larger portion OF the
