the condition of the roads around
Arvada. They say that some
one told them that Arvada was
getting more than its share of
road Improvements. May the
Good Lord deliver us if we are!
But that's the way all commun-

is too short to reach over the

is needed. The Commissioners

to satisfy all but it is impossible
to do so.

UNITED STATES IS INFORMED
THIS is DONE IN CONFORMITY
WITH ENGLAND's MEXICAN
POLICY
IT Is NOT OPPOSED TO VILLA
IF ELECTED, HOWEVER, He WILL
NOT ESCAPE SETTLEMENT
FOR BENTON MATTER

Washington, Dec. Sir Cecil
Spring-Rice, the British ambassador,
informed the state department today
of a dispatch from British Charge
Hohler in Mexico City saying reports
were current that General Carranza
was planning to destroy the British
owned railroad between Vera Cruz and
Mexico City by blowing up certain
tunnels.
The ambassador also informed the
department that CarTanza had seized,
at Vera Cruz, British cotton consign-
ed to interior mills, as we'll as other
Of British goods. He is
understood to have made no specific
request of the United States, and his
action was in line with the established
policy of communicating to the depart
ment all reports from Mexico City.
Grave concern was exressed, how
ever, over the reported threat Of Car
Ianza to put the railway. the only line
operated between Mexico City and
Vera Cruz, out of commission. If this
were done by destroying tunnels,
long time would be requiredto restore
traffic. Meanwhile foreign subjects
and other aliens in the interior Of
Mexico would not have that means of
escape from Mexico City.
Sir Cecil let It be known that the
British government has not taken
position of unfriendliness toward the
possible candidacy Of villa for the
Mexican presidency. 1t is understood
that England will not undertake to
pass upon the right of any Individual
10 take the leadership in Mexico.
That, however, does not mean that
any indemnity for the death Of the
British subject, Benton, would not be
demanded from Villa should he be
come president or from whoever ulti-
mately may be settled in that office

NAVAL CRITIC SAYS THE UNITED

LIED NATleNs


Berlin, Dee 8 evils don 81 The
attitude of the United States is com
mented upon by Count Ernest von
Reyentlow, the naval critic, in an ar
ticle in the Tages zeitung today in
which he says that England and
France are obtaining from America
materials of war, while Germany is
not enjoying similar assistance.
Referring to the diplomatic discus
sion between the United States and
England, concerning the holding up by
British warships of American cargoes
as provisional contraband Count Won
Reyentlow says:
a'If England and France are willing
10 favor the United States as much
as possible without departing from
their policy of starving Germany at
the expense of small neutral nations,
the reason is that both countries have
ordered many million dollars worth
of war materials in the United States
and that American industry is at
work feverishly to supply the wants
of both these warning nations, from
woolen covers, shoes and horseshoes,
up to collapsible submarines A sub
marine transported in parts, accord
ing to the transatlantic viewpoint,
does not constitute contrabaud Of war,
nor does the fabrication thereof for
the use of belligerents amount to a
breach of neutrality.
Enough, these are business consid-
erations which naturally dominate the
ideas Of contraband and the treatment
of the American commercial marine.

Chicago, Dec. indictments were

the brothers Frank and James Ryan.
The defendants, charged with conspir-

with bribery, are Captain James J.

former Detective Walter O'Brien.

Denver, Dec. 5.--'Is there any one

Chairman Walsh of the federal indus
trial relations commission asked }. F

Fuel and Iron company, who resumed
his testimony today in the investiga
tion of the Colorado coal miners

Mr.. Welborn said he had heart

"But / should not care TO have the

Mr.. Welborn said the company had

SERWANS RALLY
AND HOLD OFF
AUSTRIANS
THEY ARE REPORTED TO HAVE
RECEIVED REINFoRcEMENTS
FROM RUSSIA

London, Dec. 5.--While reports con-
tinue to come into London that the
battle of Lodz has ended in a Russian
victory, any official confirmation still
is lacking, and it is apparent to
British observers that conditions in
the north of Poland today are virtual
ly the same as they we're week ago,
after the German army had been saw
ed from overwhelming defeat by the
brilliant operations of General Mack
enzen
Details of the LODI fighting are be-
ginning to filter through, and they
easily prove 1t to have been the most
bloody struggle of the entire war. The
Germans are described as fighting
their way through the Russian lines
over the heaped-up bodies of their
comrades. Berlin claims heavy cap
lures of prisoners in this struggle,
while from Kiev comes the announce
ment that the progress there is crowd
ed with German prisoners. Incident
ally KEW reports that since the be-
ginning Of the war 10000 soldiers and
$500 officers have passed through
Kiev as prisoners Of war.
The Russians would appear not yet
to have been diverted from their at
tacks in Galicia and the invasion OF
Hungary, but the fortresses of Pre-
mysr and Cracow still are intact and
are likely to put up stronger defense
against the Russians than did the Bel
gian forts against the Germans. An
official report today from Vienna adj
mits that the advance Of Austrians
has been prevented by violent attacks
from strong hostile forces covering
the Servian retreat No hint is given
as to the identity of these forces, but
the opinion is expressed in London
that Russian aid has reached the sore
oppressed Serbs.
