MEX|CO'S NEW REGIME
J;UNDER MADER0 BEGINS
Pfesident-EIeCt To Be InauglI-
= rated To-day with Simple
Ceremonial.
REYES A CAUSE OF WORRY
incoming Administration to Ask
Washington to Warn Him to
! Keep Out of His Home Poll
tics While on U. S. Soil.
GBy Tclesraph to The tribune. J


Mexico. Nov. 5.-Francisco l. Maderc
will go into Office tomorrow encouraged
hv the knowledge that the United State:
will actively discountenance the hatch
ing of any revolutionary plots against
his administration north of the Rio
Grande. 1t is known here that a work
inz agreement has virtually been ar
ranged between the United States and
Mexico by which the Washington gov
ernInent will do all in its power TO pre-
vent Madero's administration from being
hampered by political malcontents elect
ing domicile just north of the frontier tc
organize revolutionary juntss.
Frank satisfaction is expressed, not
only by Mexicans but by foreigners as
well, at the prospects OF a more vigorous
policy than that heretofore being pur-
sued by the United States in the way OF
aiding to sustain constitutional govern
ment in Mexico. 1t is reasonable TO as
sumo that representations on this score
have been made on behalf of Mexico 10
Washington.
One indication that the United States
is inclined 10 go to some lengths TO save
its sister nation trouble is the fact that
Secret Service men have been keeping
close watch upon General Bernardo
Reeves since he landed in New Orleans
after abandoning his political campaign
fo~ the Presidency and proceeded TO San
Antonio. The suggestion that this be
done came from an American here, not a
diplomat. in whose accurate information
on Mexican affairs Washington has con-
iidence. Madero is determined that II
possible General Reyes be not allowed to
remain as close TO the frontier as San
Antonio.
Reyes Shows Hostility.
Since his stay there Reyes has in
dulged in many public statements show
ing a hostile attitude to the incoming ad-
rninistration. but he is not known TO
have committed an overt act of nature
10 justify repressive measures by the
United States authorities. Notice has
already been served upon Reyes by the
President-elect that either he must re-
turn to Mexico. ample guarantees being
given for his safety, OF he must stay
away from the frontier The under
standing here is that unless T.eyes does
one or the other President Madero will
ask Washington TO warn Reyes to move
on and 10 refrain from meddling in Mex
lean politics while on America territory,
ari it is believed here that such re-
quest would be acceded to.
A public announcement defining the
attitude of the United States toward
Mexico with reference 10 keeping plot
ters out Of mischief and including a gen
eral exposition of Washington's friendly
disposition to the new administration is
expected here shortly. Mexicans look for
something which will tend to allay what
ever suspicious and unpleasant feelings
may still be held by certain classes of
Mexicans against the United States and
air American officials, President Taft. es-
pecially, are anxious TO impress upon
Mexicans that the United states is Mex

DENIES THEIR RIGHT TO STRIKE
Government Clerks May Quit, How
ever, Says Postoffice Official

Washington, d. G.-Second Assist
ant Postmaster General Stewart ap-
peared before the house committee
OH civil service in opposition to the
Lloyd bill giving government en-
ployes the right to affiliate with
trades unions. He declared that
unions such as the proposed organi-
zation of railway mail clerks were
projected to 'coerce the department,
subvert good administration and in
timidate congress"
Do you deny the right of govern
ment clerks to striker" Mr.. Stewart
was asked by Representative Wilson
of Pennsylvania, chairman OF the
committee on labor, who has attend
ed all the hearings on the subject.
Il do" Mr.. Stewart replied. The
clerks have a right to resign, but
not TO strike"

The president made it clear that
he does not propose To abandon the
presidency while his country is at
war and that he would not do so at
any time under compulsion.
Although the announcement of Diaz
that he would resign once his country
was at peace will not reach the reb-
els through official channels, it can
be regarded by them as nothing less
than compliance with their chief de-
mand. Officials and civilians in the
capital believe that Madero will not
bubble over the method and that il
he is sincere in his desire to end the
war he will at once order the cessa-
ton of hostilities.
Il am naturally very glad that
President Diaz has made the an
nCuncement," said General Madero
to the Associated Press. Il am going
to send a telegram to him at once,
congratulating him on his patriotism,
for it certainly was an act that re
quired the highest kind OF personal
sacrifice and patriotism"

UPHOLDS 2-CENT
FARE INJUNCTION
JUDGE TRlEBER DECIDES RATE
AGAINST THE RAILROAD
COMMISSION.
Court Holds That Railroads Are Not
Making Legitimate Profit Under
the Existing Laws.

Little Rock Holding that the
freight tariffs put into effect by the
Arkansas Railroad Commission ana
tie tWo-eent passenger rate provided
by an act OF the legislature are non
compensatory and confiscatory, Judge
T1ieber made permanent the injunc-
ton enjoining the state from enforc-
ing these rates against the Iron
Mountain and Cotton Belt railroads.
Judge Trieber went extensively
into the different items of expenses
Of railroads for the purpose of deter
the two classes OF traffic, state and
interstate, and reached the conclu-
sion that the local freight traffic OF
the Iron Mountain exceeds the cost
of the interstate 210 per cent and
that of the Cotton Belt $50 per cent.
The opinion declares that a rail
road should earn six per cent upon
a fair valuation of its property when
everything is prosperous and no en-
traordinary losses are incurred, and an
additional allowance of one and one
half per cent for a surplus fund 1t
was declared by the judge that the
railroads involved were unable to
make a legitimate profit under the
existing laws, and for that reason
they were confiscatory
