REVOLT NOT SERIOUS
Marcos J. Trozivuk's View of
Revolution in Mexico.
MERE CROWD OF BANDITS
Steamship Official Speaks of the In.
fuence of Recent Pan.Ameri-
can Conference.

t Marcos J. Trazivuk, purser on the
steamship Merida of the New York and
Cuba Mail Steamship Company, and a
delegate to the Pan-American confer
ence. has been a guest of Maj. Sylves-
ter. Speaking Of the revolution in
Mexico, Senior Trazivuk told Star
reporter that the accounts of the
trouble printed in papers outside Of
Mexico are greatly exaggerated.
The trouble he said. has not
gained the dignity of a revolution.

Insurrectos Lack Leaders.
With the exception of the state of Chi
huahua, he declared, practically the whole
of Mexico is at peace. The great major
ity of the people of Mexico love President
Diaz and are loyal to him. No fear Of the
insurrectos was entertained by the gov
eminent and no preparations were made
to combat them. The insurrectos, he said,
have no able leaders.
Business is good In most parts OF the
country he declared, Chihuahua being the
only state in which It is demoralzed to
any extent.
of the Pan-American conference are
bound to increase the commercial inter-
course between the United States and
Latin American country" he stated.
John Barrett, the distinguished director
general of the institution. is one OF the
best known Americans in all Latin Amer
lean countries, and the people of those
countries look upon him as a man who
has accomplished more than any other
American in the matter of increasing
and hlfShfnQ friendly rel9 ttOn9.
Practical Business Conditions.
Through this conference we have
learned of something which We have
ignored up to the present time in regard
to practical business conditions in Latin
America, and of the advantages which
will be open to pan-American COM
merce by the Panama canal. Over 500
delegates and representatives from all
parts of the world attended regularly the
sessions, and almost every ere urged Mr..
Barrett to call these conferences at least
once year.
1.-THE principal reason that there Is no
between the United States and South
America is because our ships are not
subsidized.
"Unquestionably, as soon as the sub
S1dy bill is passed We Will have, inside OF
six months. large steamers under the
American flag plying between New York
and Buenos Aires.
British Capital Invested.
1.-THE American capital invested in
South America and particularly in Argen-
tina is insignificant. and the principal
foreign capital is English. Naturally, this
is a great disadvantage to our Industries
Germany and France are following the
custom Of England, and they are also in
| Producing large amounts of capital. which
help them to support their industries and
| to tighten commercial interchange.
| In the event that the United States
wishes to enlarge commercial inter-
courses and to occupy q more adyanta-
geous position in the markets of South
I America, it means that we need to in
| vest our capital the same as England
did several years before succeeding COM
mercially in those countries
