WORK IN MEXICO
WaIlcout Of Engineers ard Conductors
Complete on Northern and Gulf
Divisions of Railways.
Ry AssocIated Press.

Laredo, Tex, April 1.-THE walk
out OF American engineers and con
ductors was complets yoday on the en-
tire Northern and Gulf divisions Of
the Mexican National railways. No
serious disorder was reported. With
out exception the Americans are re-
ported to have Joined the strike.
The Americans chief demand was to
control the percentage or Mexicans
who should be allowed to work as con-
ductors and engineers.
A reliable report from Monterey
ssys several Mexican engineers tried
to force an American conductor named
Van Arsdale and an engineer named
Farris TO shout ''vfva Madero." This
they refused to DO. They were not
molested. One newly appointed Afxi-
can engineer broke into tears at the
Americans's walkout, telling his com
panions the Americans were their
best friends and had kept wages up.
Yesterday many Of the Americans
were locked out in anticipation OF to-
days action. Some OF them reached
the American border today only by
paying their fares. few Of these
Americans have worked for a quarter
OF century on the Mexican lines,

Diaz built up a machine which sup
piled him with money and gave privi-
legeS in return and when these privi-
leges were revoked by Madero they
began to create strife. Practically
every newspaper in Mexico and all of
the leading ones were paid subsidies
by the Diaz government and have done
everything in their power to kill Ma
deros power.

land and are holding it for speculation

posited in American banks more than

Intervention in Mexico by the United
States is inevitable and it will proba-
bly, occur within few weeks, said al
American who is at the head of one Of
the largest mercantile firms in Mexico.
He gave an interesting account of the
situation there and the cause Of the
trouble. ...
Madero, he, says, is giving the people
a government which is honest and
right, but the people are a hundred
years behind what he Is giving them
and his army is liable to turn upon
him at any time.
The Americans in Mexico. City, he
says, are in a dangerous position and
they are liable to lose their lives and
property any day because the Ameri-
can flag in Mexico means nothing to
the rebels. The British flag, he says,
is respected and Americans have been
compelled to resort to placing the
British flag over their places of bust =
ness and homes.

OF the Bible has been separate from

with a substitute for religion. They
have been reared in an atmosphere
that stiles honesty. They have wit
messed all variety OF corruption and
