Returning American Capitalist Says
Foreigners Can't Do Business.
! New York. Feb. l9.-Edwin A. Mac
pherson. who has large railroad hnfld
Ing. uil and mining interests In Mexico.
has Just returned from that country
and IL at the Vanderbilt hotel. He said
he Is sure that neither Diaz nor Madero
ran establish any staple form of gov
eminent.
Mr.. Macpherson left Vera Cruz ten
days ago. For more than II year now
he has seen his business seriously In
terfered with 10y the depredations of
m%arauding binds OF rebels ana ont
laws. He says that It now takes mp
proximately forty men to dig n hole
T%hirty-nine 20 out to guard one digger
Every ana then his snperinteltd
ents find that large sections OF men
have been impressed into the service of
ZONE Of the ten ~ twelve rebel armies
They are not seen again. and no one
knows what happens to them. They
simply vanish over night ut the beck Of
some band lender. and In the morning
begins the disconraging work OF filling
their places al over again.
Performances OF this nature have
practically paralyzed business interests
Of foreigners in Mexico for more than
n year.
iersoDnAyy Mr.. Macpherson has not
Z tfed. His work. 1t is true. has been
woefully retarded by such practices
but he says TINT he can always set met
to drilling when they nre stopped from
laying rails. and he regards himself as
fortunate when both can be done ut the
same time.
Last June. he says. there began a
general exodus Of American women
and children from the country. 1t wns
extensive practice Of coming before y
small city and demanding that n GER
tain proportion OF the women inhnbit.
ants be sent out to them with the
threat to shell the city In case OF re.
fusai. In ut least one case. that OF the
women were demanded by the invnd
ers, The project busted himself and
sent the required number.
Americans Get Scared.
These were native women. of course,
but the increasing holiness Of the
brigamls aud outla VS. ca used the Amer.
leans To realize the danger to their own
people and they began sending them
across the border
Mr.. Macpherson says that in many
Instances Americans have been held uy
and hauled off trains by rebels who are
, looking for arms.
The railroad maj believes. however
that most OF the killing of foreigners
ms been due to their careiessness and
curiosity. He says TINT at the battle o'
Junrez he saw many examples Of this

Convert of Bishop Harry Dies.

From the st. Louis Sunday Watchman.l
Mrs. Matte G.. Walsh, wife of Thos.
F. Walsh, 5107 Gates avenue, passed
into eternity at 5 O'Clock Thur sday
morning, November 9th, at st. Luke's
Hospital, after having received the
last rites of the church the Sunday
morning prior to her death.
Mrs. Walsh was received into the
church as a convert by Father Jere-
miah Harty, now Archbishop of the
Philippines. She was we'll known for
her many charities and her great kind
ness toward every one. She could
learn who needed aid financially or
otherwise, and then come to their as
sistance. She was always a steadfast
adherent of her chosen faith, proud
of it's priests and principles at all
times. When her dear old father died
she called in a priest and had the dy-
ing man baptized. 1t was always a
source of great satisfaction to her to
know that he had passed away Icon
vert to the true faith.
Her husband, Thos. F. Walsh, is the
well-known Walsh of the old South
ern Hotel and the Syenite Granite
Company.
Mrs. Walsh died on the fortieth an
niversary Of their marriage, after a
lingering illness of four months. The
beautiful floral tribute from many nu-
merous friends and relatives bore tes-
timony to the esteem in which her
beautiful character was held by those
who knew her.
The mass of beautiful floral tributes
that poured in from numerous friends
bore testimony to the high esteem in
which the beautiful character of the
deceased was held.
The funeral took place Saturday
morning from st. Marks Church,
where Father O'Rourke in an address
to the large assemblage present paid
tribute to the truly Catholic life and
ideals of Mrs. Walsh.
May her soul rest in peace!
