NO DANGER OF STRIKE.
Situation on National Railways of
 Mexico Is Briather.

Mexico City, July 2s.-General Manager A. Clark of the National Railways of Mexico, in statement to the press today, said that in his opinion the. danger of a strike of railwa: employees was remote.
 The strike sentiment" he declar- ed, was being fostered. not by the men themselves, but by outside in |terests working through certain newspapers. :"
 From another source it was learn ed that strong representations had been made to the leaders of the rail- way mems organizations by the Mex ican government officials against calling stlake at this time. 1t was even said that the prospective strike had been made the subject of an exchange of notes between fhe United States and Mexico, in view Iof ihe serious consequences that would unquestionably follow in the unsettled state of the republic. Ac- cording 10 this authority, which re- flected the employees side of the question, the idea of calling a strike luntil altar the national election al the earliest, had been abandoned.

Bangor, Me-, July 2S.-A head-on collosion between a crowd ed excur- sion train contaiing about 150 per- SOS and regular passeger train, bound from Van Buren to Bangor, at the little backwoods settlement of Grindston, on the Bangor and Aroo- stock railroad, late last night, result ed, according to early reports, in at least fifteen deaths.
 It was reported that few if any of the 150 passengers on the e.tcursion train escaped death or serious in jury. The regular train was the heavier and ploughed it's way through the lighter excursion cars with com paratively little injury to the regu- lar passengers.

 Owing to the isolation of the place and the fact that the only telephone wire running into the town was pni out of commission for time by the storm which ragged tonight through northern Maine, details were hard to lobtain.

FAKE TANNING COMPANY
Raided by Postoffice Inspectors in
 New York.


 New York, July 2S.-The exploi- tation of an alleged new process for tanning leather, which induced sev- |eral thousand persons all over the country to invest $420,0O0 in stock of the American Tanning Company, was abruptly ended today, when post |office inspectors raided the compa- ny's offices here and arrested four of it's promoters. Eugene s. Robin son, Adam Hoch. F. c. Garfield, and G. Herbert Smith were cha- with using the mails to defraud.
 The American Tanning Company, organized in May, 1909. advertised q new patent process and told inyesti- gators it owned plant in Newark N. J. The postoffice authorities say the plant was only leased. A year ago the company went into the hands of a receiver and complaints from investors started the investlga- ton that resulted in today's action.
 All but Hoch obtained the required bail and were released.

TWO CANDIDATES
 GIVE TESTIMONY
ILLINOIS POLITICIANS FAIL TO THROW LIGHT ON THE LOR-
 MFR MATTER.
Mason and ssNsser Tell of Their Sen atoriaI Ambitions and Dis
 appointments.

Washington, July 28.--Two sena- torial aspirants from Illinois, Wl- liam E. Mason, a republican, and Lawrence B. Stringer, democrat, were on the stand today before the Senate Lorimer committee. Neither threw much light on the methods by which William Lorimer defeated them for the senatorial toga, but each made valuable contributions to the story of how the political game is run ill Illinois.
 Former Senator Billy" Mason told how the senatorial bee buzzed around him so long that he had developed a chronic case of senatorial ambi- uon. Pessimistic and disheartened, the democratic candidate for senator in Illinois in 1909, expressed the opinion that his party in Illinois lacked cohesive force generally.
 MT. Stringer told of his fight "in splendid isolation" in the Illinois
 legislature for election to the senate and of his never failing hope that he would land in the senate by an accident. He gave some testimony about a Fourteen Club" reputed to ihaye been in tine process of organi- zation at one time to elect Hopkins to the senate by the use of money and cited the name of Charles E.. Luke as democratic member of the legislature, who said he had been invited to become a member.
 Just how it happened that B democrats voted for Lorimer, making the democratic party an adjunct to Ia faction of the republican party.' IT. Stringer testified he did not not know although he said he had an opinion which the committee did not ask him to express. He gave the name of E. o. Phillips, re- porter for the Chicago Record Her lald, as having told him once he had heard that fund was being raised to elect Lorimer to the senate. Lawrence B. Stringer, democratic candidate for the senate in 1909,, when Lorimer was elected, testified :. After telling some of the workings of politicians, at that time, a Four teen Club, to re-elect Senator Hop kins, was discussed. Mir. lStringer said that in the latter part of Jan uary, 1909, Representative Charles s. Luke, now dead, came to him and stated he had been invited to join Fourteen Club to put Senator Hop kins over"
 "rll stick to you till hell freezes over." Mir. Stringer quoted Luke as remarklng.
 Did that phenomenon ever occurY'' asked Attorney Healey.
 q don't know. Luke voted for me
 until the last ballot when he voted for Lorimer.

COTTON PRICES
 ARE DEPRESSED
SELLING OF NEW CROP MONTHS AND FAVORABLE WEATHER
 THE CAUSE.
Critical Month of August May Cause Change in Conditions ard
 in the Market.

NeY York July ZS.-Cotton nas been depressed by persistent South ern selling of the new crop months on general improving weather con ditions on the one hand and on the other harfa has at times shown slight rallies on buying by trade in lterests, spinners, bulls support and buying by traders in favor of an upward reaction to create a better selling basis or for other reasons.
 The new results of the week have been decline of seven points on July and 67 10 90 points on other months, mostly on the far off posi- tions. Many are waiting the govern ment report next week. It is expect ed to be very favorable by the trade at large, although many claim that the almost perpendicular drop in the prices has fully discounted yery bearish report. A condition of around 91 per cent is generally anticipated. Crop and weather adyices in the main have shown distinct improvement. There are expectations of heavy August movement of new cotton and spot markets in the South have been weak of late. New Orleans, for in stance dropped S-4c on spot cotton in one day. The curtailment of pro- Iduction has shown no abatement, the demand for cotton yarns has been smaller and spinners in many in stances have withdrawn or lowered the limits of their buying orders. In word, the bears at the moment seem to have the prestige and most 1 of the profits. With the continua- ton of present gratifying crop pros poets and with the South steadily tselling. bany are inclined to look for still lower prices.
 Yet, with the critical month of August, often fraught with damage to the growing crop, to be passed | through, there are those who feel
 that for the present at least prices
 have declined enough. Then, too,
 some unfavorable crop reports have
 leone in. Sections of the Mississip Ipi delta producing some 500.000 bales lhave received too much rain and they Inave sent complaint of the boil wee
 vii becoming more numerous. Reports
 of the fields becoming grassy ant
 weedy have been received from DOT ltions of Alabama; in southwestern lTexas it is said to have been too ldry and reports 1from mortimer Geor. lgia are- to the effect that the croI lin that section will not commence tC lffiove as early as had been expect Ied Exporters are rapidly diminish ling the New York stock and hav'
 also been buying spot cotton in thu
 South. Large spot interests and thu Ispinners have bought futures to considerable extent at timee. Lat
 erly July has held up on scattered short covering and bull support , while the latter months have con tinued to decline with the Soul . lselling.
