STATEMENT BY
LEH|CH VALLEY
Tells Why 1t is Laying Off
Its Employees.

The following official statement
as to the laying off of men and the
postponement of improvements and
betterments is made by the Lehigh
Valley Railroad Company:
Owing to the suspension OF work
at both the anthracite and bitumi-
nous mines, and the consequent loss
Of q large part Of its normal ton
mage. the Lehigh Valley railroad
has been forced to reduce it's work
ing force by laying off train crews,
shopmen and office workers.
IN addition, improvements and
betterments involving the expendi-
ture of many tn )usands of dollars
In labor and material have had to
be indefinitely postponed.
AT present 1875 freight locomo-
tives have been put out Of commits
siG.t- which mas compelled the lay
Fig off of practically that number of
complete freight train crew Other
locomotives and crews are operating
on a short time basis.
The total reduction In wages, In
the transportation and shop depart
ments and In the offices, Is a very
large sum monthly, exclusive of the
curtailment In improvements and
betterments.
These reductions in the labor
force result from an unfortunate
situation. over which the company
has no control. Under the condi-
lions which prevailed previous to
April LIST the company found en-
ployment for its normal force and
the management hoped that nothing
would occur to force q reduction.
The duration of the present suspen-
sion Of work at the mines is still in
doubt and, therefore, 1t is impossi-
Bile to predict when the railroad en-
ployes will be called back to their
work"

REBEL AGENTS
SCORE MADER0
Say He Is Unfit to Rule
Ruin of Mexico.

New York, April S.-The three
Mexicans who are up here to tell as
what the real trouble Is In Mexico and
why they have revolted from the rule
Of Madero, fred their hrst gun in the
shape of a statement signed by Manuel
l.. Lujan, minister plenipotentiary
from General Orozco, the revolutionary
leader. He said It was given out on
the authority Of the general himself.
The present revolution Is merely a
continuance of the one which began
when the rule of President Diaz be
came unbearuble.
From the very first he violated his
promises and the principle for which
he and the reyolutionists had been
fighting. By what was almost his first
official act he violated the very thing
which we thought we had won, the
sanctlty of the free ballot. By threats
and violence he forced into office men
unknown to Mexico and who were
mere tools in his hands. Members Of
his family received positions. The
present head of the government party
Is Gustave Madero, the presidents
brother. The minister Of finance is
his uncle, the head of the department
of mines and agriculture is his first
cousin.
when Diaz left office there was $32,-
100000 in the treasury, all of which
has been wasted by Madero. Gustave
Madero got $700,0 600 for alleged ex
penses in the campaign without max
ing an accounting. And now $3,30O,00O
is about TO be paid for land which Is
not worth half that amount.
"MGdero has accomplished all but
the complete ruin of Mexico"
The rest of the statement deals with
the reforms which the rev0lutionists
will try to effect If their cause is sue
cessful. The last thing they want Is
an Intervention on the part of any
foreign nation and they say they will
try to remove the cause for such. They
had nothing to say concerning Magda-
lena bay.

Some Wore Unable to Resist Their
Eaqernsss and Refused Holiday.
London, April a-Raports from the
mining districts state that with few
exceptions the miners are ready to
obey the order of their federation and
return to work tomorrow. The men
at some pits were SO anxious to return
that they ignored the Easter Monday
holiday and resumed work today.
The output at many Of the mines
for several days will be small or NIL,
as much clearing and repairing work
will be necessary.
There are some exceptions TO the de
sire to comply with the f~ederation's
orders in parts Of Yorkshire. Lanca-
shire and Flfeshire. Meetings held in
these sections passed resolutions to the
effect that the men would not resume
until a satisfactory minimum wage
schedule had been fixed.

STEAL PAPERS
FROM WILSON
Plumber Governors Effects
in Room at Chicago.

Chicago, Ill, April S.-Burglars with
undeniable political affiliations rnided
the rooms of Governor Woodrow VII
son, In the Sherman House, during his
absence at st. Msry's rectory, and
stole all his private correspondence,
vouchers and other documents. Two
men did the work, which was careful
ly planned. They escaped in a taxi
cab, being driven to the Union station,
but II Is thought this was q blind and
that they are still in the city, having
delivered the stolen documents to their
employer.
Governor Wilson said he regretted
the loas of letters, which were strictly
personal. but predicted that the thieves
and their employer would be disap-
pointed, as there was nothing that
could not be published without lnjur-
ing him or his cause. William G. Ne
black, president Of the Wilson Club of
Illinois. said 1t was undoubtedly u po-
litlcal trick.
A large force Of detectives was put
on the case. They have good descrip-
tons of the thieves. Considerable
valuable silver and other property In
Governor Wilson's room was not
touched. The governors dress suit and
extra undertaking were included In
the plumber.

VALUABLE FOR
THE FAMILIES
Matters Not How Many Are
in the Household.

What constitutes the average
family?
Are there three or four Or five
members, counting father, mother
and the children?
Census sharps have established
five as the average number. Per-
haps In districts where race sui
eide" prevails this number is ORE
spondingly decreased.
SO after all it may be that geo
graphical location has a great deal
to do with determining the size Of
the average family.
However, it makes no difference
how many, or how old, or how
young, every one of them will derive
pleasure and profit in the posses
sion of the new illustrated Bible
which the EVENING NEWS Is pre-
senting to its readers. Every picture
In this Bible tells a story of It's own.
Some other Bibles are said to be
illustrated, but they only contain
pictures without any particular
meaning placed here and there,
without reference to verse, chapter,
or text. Such Bibles may be all
right in their way, but they should
not be compared with this illustrated
Bible where all the pictures have a
direct reference to the reading mat
ter which they accompany and al
except the colored e~ngraying3 are
printed right in with the type. Sc

the kind ever published.
