$2O63, which brings the total de-
posits since the first of the moth

From these figures, and estimat-

ceive that T;hc pah will have Dut
little trouble in outdistancing those
town in which the Postal Savings
banks were opened on March 1.
Yesterday was the first payday in
Tonopah since the government in
stitution has been opened and with
the deposits continuing at like
ratio for few months, the figures
will soon rise above those of other
cities.
The clause in the regulations OF
the Postal Savings bank which per-
mits of a deposit of not more than
800 in any one month has beer
instrumental in holding the figures
down to considerable extend. On,
man yesterday rendered $1100 ant

WESTERN PACIFIC
STRIKE is SETTLED

From reliable source it has
been learned that the differences
heretofore existing between the
Western Pacific Railway company
and the employees, in the matter of
a wage schedule, have been settled
in San Francisco agreeably to both
parties to the controversy. In fact,
the adjustment was a great victory
to the enginemen and trainmen who
made the demands to the company
for higher wages. Since the early
part of April the officials of the
company and committees of EN-
ployes have been in conference and
the settlement effected the last
few days is the outcome of the
meetings, thereby averting a gen.
eral strike on this road.
AS yet there has been no official
notification of this agreement, but
from private information it has been
given out that 80 per cent raise
has been granted to the engine
men and trainmen over the present
schedule Humboldt Star.

Mexican government and Madero.
One bit of information given out
showed that European governments
are apparently willing to give Mex
leo opportunity to solve her own
problem. The president told call
ers that no foreign government had
suggested that the United States
take action to protect American
and other foreign property, and
this nation intended to live by the
Monroe doctrine. Italy is the only
European nation that held concern
about the matter.
Madero telegraphed the insurrec-
to junta here that the insurgent
forces had gained possession of the
greater part of Juarez and that
their losses were small. He said
the imprudence of volunteers pre-
cipitated the battle which was rag
ing in Juarez yesterday.
