VERA CRUZ, Nov. u. - The only
means of communication with Mexico
City is by wire. Traffic on both the
railroads leading from Vera Cruz TO
the capital has been interrupted
On the Mexican railway, according
to the explanation given by its Of
fcials, traffic has been halted on ac-
count OF the demand of the constitu-
tionalists for all rolling stock between
Mexico City and Esperauza for the
movement of troops, and also because
the proximity of the rebels renders
travel dangerous. Col Edmuudo Mar

reason for the suspension was to pre-
vent the entrance to Vera Cruz of pas

Wages Uninjured By
 A Reduced l arif

WASHINGTON. D. C., May 10 That wages have not been affected by the new tariff law is proved by the labor statistics of last year, that have just been compiled. These sta tistics show that in 50 industries in 40 of the principal cities of the United States. the wages paid last year were higher than those paid the year previous.
 As an example of the good wages that prevail everywhere, it is point ed out that the bricklayers in some of the cities, notably in Seattle and in Dallas. Texas. received S7 cents an hour. which is declared to be exceptionally good. These statistics will be used to refute the conten tion of the Republican press that the laboring conditions were injur- ed by the election of Democratic President.

bridge piling could not withstand the impact, and first one and then another went down with a crash in. to the surging stream.
 The first indication of the general breakup was the appearance of a turbulent mass of broken ice, nov ing steadily down stream from the bend above the main part of the city. This seemingly resistless body extended from one side of the river to the other, and broke from their respective ancvhorages the massive areas that lined the two shores above the bridge site.
 As the current was strongest in the center, the first big cakes wedg ed into the open channel, and tore away the lighter piers that had supported the northern end of the bridge. The piles. which were logs standing in the frozen bed of the
 
 feet. After the smaller piers at the Garden island side had gone the main piers continued to withstand the battering effect of the ice, though as each big cake struck. the cracking of timbers could be heard.
 The big pier that stood nearest the center of the stream began to go by piecemeal. but when a large piece of ice, like a floating island, struck it amidships. it went to pieces with loud crash. Then the other big pier went. and after the piers were gone. a huge raft of ice headed straight for the southern approach, and with an impact that would probably have sunk battle ship, it struck the approach square ly, tossing it's logs around against the bulkhead with tremendous force.
 It was conservatively estimated that some of the ice cakes that came gliding by contained an un- broken surface area of at least an acre As these Were from three to five feet in thickness. and tkeir weight totaled hundreds of tons. their force was not to be resisted

BREAKING UP OF |CE IS
 UNUSUALLY SPECTACULAR
Great Floating Islands Tear Out One Bridge Pier After Anothe Final Movement Begins 4:45 O'Clock in Afternoon, and
 Large Crowds Enjoy Sight of Soothing Mass

by any ordinary man made pier Por tions of the log bulkhead at the ferry landing were torn away by ice cakes that crushed into it, and pieces of the bulkhead in the vicini ty of the Pioneer dock also were carried away.
 But even with that, the ice did nc more harm that was expected. and as there was no jam in the river the flooding of part of the city which had been feared, did not ma terialize
 That the bridge would be sure to go out was a foregone conclusion and late Saturday afternoon 1t was dismantled and stripped of all it's plankings and stringers. These will be used ill the reconstruction of the bridge.
 The railroad bridge across Dead mans slough was partially disman- tied in anticipation of it's being wrecked by the ice. but with some minor injuries, it escaped. Rails will be replaced on the bridge this morning, and passengers and freight will be taken across it in the elec- tric cars. On the other side of the bridge. these will be tranferred to the regular trains which will be made up there until the bridge is fully repaired and strengthened.
 Another flow of ice is expected from the upper river today or to- night, but judging from past ex- periences. it will not be as spec tacular as that of yesterday after noon.
 Word was received from Cinema at 6 o'clock last night that the ice had not gone out there at that time, and that the flow that had passed Fairbanks was evidently being side tracked to some extent in inter vening sloughs.
 Men were at work all last night on the ferry boat, which will be The boat was surrounded by huge The boast was surrounded by huge cakes of ice and much blasting was necessary last night to free it.

Breaking up of the ice in the Cinema slough, and incidentally the demOlishing of the piers of the bridge, yesterday afternoon proved to be one of the most spectacular sights ever beheld in Fairbanks Even the sourdoughs declared that it was exceptionally interesting on account of it's being in the after noon with the sunshine aiding the scenic effect
 A minor movement of the ice took place at 11:45 o'clock in the fore noon, but with the exception of tear away one of the bridge piers, it proved to be of little importance The stray pieces continued to come however, until 4:45 o'clock in the afternoon, when a great mass of ice bore down on that which was an chored at each end of the bridge site
 This was the starting of the real event. The expectant crowds that had been patiently watching for many hours were rewarded, and it seemed that the river and the ice were imbued with animate life and were giving special performance for the benefit of the spectators on each shore.
 To those who were witnessing for the first time the breaking up of ice in an Alaska river the scene was intensely interesting from the time the first great cakes of ice began tearing out the remaining bridge piers until the sparkling white, seething mass had been re- floating on the muddy water
 When the ice began to move in the morning, a channel was made almost in the middle of the river, and on each side of this was a bank of ice that semed solidly to the shore. It was i'm aeined that this center channel would permit much of the ice later to pass without taking out the bridge piers on the two sides of the river. But when the main flow started, the cakes were so big that the
