ROUNDING THEM
Up FOR PEACE
Wilson's Agents Getting Mexl.
cans Together.
ALL PROMISE TO Be GOOD
General Villa Declares He Will Join
the Other Constltutionalists In
Restoring Peace-Question OF
Amnesty and Guarantees.

Washington, d. C.-Oficial advices
ministration was meeting with success
In bringing Provisional President Car
bajal, General Carranza, General villa
and Gen. Emiliano Zapata into har-
mony for the restoration Of peace in
Mexico. From these four leaders
representing all the factors concerned
In the establishment of stable gov
ernment-came encouraging messages
in answer to the counsel and advice
which the United States has been
lending through its numerous consular
and diplomatic agents to smooth the
way to a complete agreement.
General Zapata, about whom little
had been known hitherto, answered a
communication sent indirectly to him,
promising to cooperate with the Con-
stitutionalists in the work of pacifica-
tion.
While General Carranza is ready to
grant an amnesty and give guarantees
to those who have opposed the Con-
stitutionalists, persons criminally re-
sponsible for the assassination Of
Madero and Suarez will not be given
immunity. AS most Of the guilty have
fed the country, the Carbajal govern
ment is not disposed to object to such
exceptions as are made by General
Carranza In this connection, especially
as 1t is intended to prosecute them
through the courts, and those accused
will have an opportunity to prove
their innocence.
Doubts which officials had expressed
over General Villas attitude also were
quieted to a considerable extent when
word came from the fighting general
himself that he would do all in his
power to restore peace in Mexico, and
would unite with the other Constitu-
tionalist leaders toward that common
purpose. Villas message was sent In
response to the personal appeal of the
Washington government urging him to
forget his personal differences with
Carranza in the interest Of national
patriotism. Officials felt after the re-
ceipt of Villas message that even II
political dissension did arise over pro-
motions or division of political spoils,
such friction would not be permitted
by villa to develop to the point of
counter revolution, circumstance on
which he now realizes the American
government would frown.

Revulsion Of F cling on Part OF
Public and Press.
STATUE TO BE RESTORED
The Mexican Press Demanding Repara

erty During Antl-Ameri-
can Riots.

Mexico City.-Following the order OF
President Carbajal that the statue of
Washington be replaced on the pedes-
tai from which II was torn during the
anti-Amerlcan riots, revulsion OF
feeling toward the United States has
been experienced by Mexican citizens
and press alike. The belief that the
Americans will evacuate Vera Cruz
just as soon as q duly elected Presi'
dent is installed grows every day.
Kindlier feeling toward Americans
is being manifested on all sides. Where
last fall the American Club was storm
ed and nearly wrecked by Mexicans,
the Mexican press is coming forward
with demands that reparation In full
be made to all Americans who suf'
fered. The newspapers are insisting
that the person who took the arm of
the Washington statue return 1t al
once. The arm has been missing
since the statue was torn down.
Carbajal is in complete control of
the situation here. Government Off
cials charge reports that the city is
about to fall before Zapata are being
circulated by a clique with headquar
ters in Washington. with a view to
obtaining intervention. Certain inter
ests that would profit by interven
tion are backing this clique, It is de
clared.
While some desultory exchanges ol
shots have taken place in the edges
Of the city, 1t is believed there is nc
danger of Zapata effecting an en-
trance. The Government troops are
easily strong enough to hold the city
against any zapatista attack. Carba
jail is not in need Of outside assistance
The parties that have attacked the
Government outposts have been hui
mere bands and were repulsed with
out any trouble. The capital Is
tranquil.

SUIT AGAINST

Bill to Completely Dismember

CRIMINAL SUITS TO FOLLOW
Nation Declares Company Earns About
81 Per Cent. OF Gross Freight
Revenue In New
England.
tCopyright.)

New York.-Under orders OF Presi-
dent Wilson and Attorney-General Nc
Reynolds, a Sherman law antitrust
suit to dissolve the New Haven Rail
road, trolley and steamship combina'
ton in New England was filed here.
The combination was scathingly
scored as combination in restraint
of trade and commerce"
The bill charges that the New
Haven has acquired control OF nine
railroad systems, 22 boat lines and
1900 miles of trolley lines. 1t charges
that the New Haven earns about 81
per cent of the gross freight revenue
and about 95 per cent. of the gross
passenger revenues of all New Eng.
land railroads.
Asks Separation OF All Roads.
The Government asks that the con
tract, combinations and conspiracies In
restraint of trade and commerce, to-
gether with the attempts to mo-
nopollze, be declared in violation OF
the Sherman antitrust law. 1t asks
for the separation of all the railroad
steamboat and trolley lines, and for
the breaking UP of the control OF
steamboat lines through the naviga'
ton company.
II is further asked that the Court
declare the acquisition of the Boston
and Maine stock by the New Haven
illegal, and that the New Haven com
pany and the Boston Railroad Hold
ing Company be directed to sell all the
stocks and bonds held by them In the
Boston and Maine and It's leased lines
Sales Only To Persons.
Finally the Government prays that
all OF the sales necessary to the break
ing up of the alleged monopoly be
made under the supervision and direc
tion of the Court to persons not stock
holders or agents, or otherwise under
the control or influence of the New
Haven company
II Is charged in the suit that in ac
quiring railroad, trolley and steam
ship lines necessary to a traffic mo
nopoly complicated and elusive meth
ods have been resorted to in order to
conceal the real character Of the trans
actions.

Harrisburg. isn't going to be
any vacation for the members of Penn
sylvania's Public Service Commission.
Under the act the commission must
meet twice monthly and even If the
members were inclined to comply with
only the letter of the law and have
purely formal meetings, with just a
quorum present, there is so much busi-
ness piled up that vacations would up
set things and make the task of the
commissioners doubly hard in the fall.
The Job of being commissioner is by
no means any cinch, as every day sees
complaints appear and questions with
out number are turning up so con-
stantly that II takes hustling TO keep
the decisions worked out. The plan
now is for the commissioners to hold
regular sessions in August and attor-
neys who are compelled to appear are
not In the most amiable frame of mind.
The amount of business before the
commission is far and away beyond ex-
pectations, and as far as possible cases
of the same character are being
grouped so they can be disposed OF
when precedents are established. The
organization Of the bureaus is being
perfected and two houses in Capitol
Park extension district which will not
be needed soon are being fitted up as
temporary quarters for commission
officials who cannot be accommodated
IN the suite In the Capitol.
One of the odd things about the con-
gested condition of the commission Is
that on the floor above there are five
fire Offices and one of the finest court
rooms in the country reserved for the
uses Of the Appellate Courts, which oc-
cupy them about three days a year,
the Supreme Court not using them at
all this year. The State Board Of Pub
lie Charities uses one suite five times
a year and the Board of Pardons the
court room ten times year. Yet they
are maintained In splendid, though
solitary state, ready for the courts
which sit here in March and in May,
and then for about seventy-two hours.
