MEXICAN M|XUP
CROWS WORSE
Three Distinct Governments in
Existence at Present.
.BLOODSHED APPEARS LIKELY
Resort to Arms Seems to Be the Only
Method for Deciding Supremacy
Of the Various Factions.

Washington, Dec. with three
distinct governments proclaimed in
Mexico and others believed ready to
burst into bloom, battle royal which
will show one distinct faction supreme
appears to be in sight.
General Pablo Gonzales, who has
heretofore been looked upon as one OF
Carranza's supporters, is reported
heading one, and his detection may
prove serious to Carranza.
Gonzales is reported at Pachuca,
forty miles northeast Of Mexico City,
with the outposts of Villas army in
close proximity.
At the same time Carranza and vii.
la forces are near at Tampico, where
General Luis Caballero has repudiated
Carranza and declared for Villa and
the Gutierrez government.
Mexico City, now held by Zapata
troops, with several of Villas veteran
regiments in reserve, is reported
quiet. The reorganized police force
is in complete control and all threat
ened rioting is being effectively
stamped out

ARBITRATION BODY MEETS
Enginemen Ask Raise on Ninety
eioht Railroads.

Chicago, Dec. 1.-When the arbi-
tration of questions at issue between
ninety-eight Western railroads and
$4,000 of their enginemen began here
before board appointed under the
Newlands act the representatives of
the men set out to prove that every
one of their sixteen demands, with
two exceptions of comparatively
minor nature, has the sanction of one
or more railroads.
Nine of the demands had been
brought up when adjournment was
taken and M. w. Cadle, assistant
grand chief engineer of the Brother
hood Of Locomotive Engineers, had
testified the concessions were already
. part of the regulations of many
roads.
The six arbitrator, two appointed
by the roads, two by the men and
two-Judge Peter G. Pritchard and
Charles Nagel-by the government,
organized before coming into court
by choosing Judge Pritchard chair
man.

BRITISH BATTLEShtp
BULWARk BLOWN UP

Sheerness, Eng, Nov. 27.-The Brit
ish battleship Bulwark was destroyed
by terrific explosion as she lay on
here. The ship disappeared in three
minutes. There are only fourteen sur
vivors from the crew of 700 or 800
men who were aboard.
The explosion is believed to have
occurred In her forward magazine.
Whether it was caused by accident
or design is a question to be deter
mined by the commission which has
been appointed to investigate.
In the opinion of naval men it was
an internal explosion that put an end
to the battleship, which for twelve
years had done service at home and
abroad and lately had been doing her
part in guarding England's shores.
There was no great upheaval of wa
ter such as would have occurred II
she had been torpedoed or struck by
mine. Instead, the ship was en-
veloped in smoke and flames and when
this had cleared nothing could be
seen but wreckage floating on the
water.
Houses in towns seven and eight
miles away were shaken by the ex-
plosion and even before men on ships
anchored near by could reach their
own decks the Bulwark had disap'
peared. The neighborhood was strewn
with an enormous amount of wreck.

It was Saturday afternoon and clear
and cool The sun was shining over
the little home where Dick and Tom
lived. \ balls game and lawn party
was to take place this sunshiny after
noon. and Dick ana Tom were going.
4 do wish We could play said Tom,
w hen ] grow up and be big like father
] am going 10 be a baseball player"
began Dick, and buy me an automo-
bile and court the girls and he rich,
and 1--we happy and have good time. D."
we don't always have to be rich TO
live happy" said Tom.
Dick Was ten years old. but q bright
child. He always thought when he
grew up he was going to be rich. But
Tom was different in every respect and
he never did expect 10 be rich and
live in luxury, and ease like his
brother.
This was 70 be great day for both
Dick and Tom. They had never been
to a bail game before. and they wanted
to GO Dick was Jealous of Tom in
some ways Tom was kind to every
body and seemed to he friendly and
loved by everybody Dick was Il little
selfish, but a smart child.
