COURT INTERpRETS
 THE NEWLANDS BILL
Says Board of ArbitatiOn's Findings Are in Ac-
 cord With Law

Pensacola. Fla, July 21.-Decisions in railroad disputes by boards of arbitra- ton, constituted under the Newlands act, passed by Congress last year, are sub ject only to review for such errors as would warrant the setting aside of com mon law arbitration. according to de- cison here today by Judge w. B. Shehp- pard. of the United States court for the northern district of Florida
 The ruling which is said to be the first court interpretation of the law, was made in the wage dispute between the Georgia and Florida railroad and it's engineers and firemen. The railroad re- Iused to abide by the decision of the ar bitration board and appealed to the fed eral courts by filing demurrers to the boards decision. The demurrers were overruled.
 Judge sheppard held that if awards of arbitration boards were set aside on technical grounds. it would tend to in validate the purpose of the law and leave to the courts instead of the arbitration boards the settlement of controversies be- tween railroads and their employees.
 Eeither party to a controversy, how ever, has the right under the law to prescribe the scope of the inquiry and to have defined the principles of law or conditions of fact under which the arb- tration is to proceed, the court hehid. But if this is not done, Judge Sheppard asserted that subsequent right to ques- ton the arbitration boards method of procedure was forfeited.
 The report of the arbitration board in the Georgia and Florida dispute granted the engineers and firemen an increase in wages. Hours of service and modfi- cation of certain of the railroads rules also were issues.

THINKS TROOPS
 SHOULD BE MOVED
Carranza Contends That Cause for Their Pres
 ence Is Removed

Laredo. Tex. July 21.-The disposition of the United States troops at Vera Cruz in view of recent developments in Mex ico Is causing animated discussion among the officials of General Carranza. ac- cording to persons who arrived from Mon terey tonight It was said that a strong sentiment exists in eonstitutionalist cir- cles in favor of request that the troops be withdrawn before the entry of Car ranza into Mexico City.
 The constitutlonalists 1t was said, take the position that the American troops were sent to Vera Cruz as result of acts of the Huerta government and as that government practically no longer exists and Its head has fled from the country. they claim that the reason for the presence of the troops has passed and that they should be withdrawn.
 Discussion of the subject, however, was declared to have been purely unofficial and it was said no representations of this nature have been made so far to the United States
 General Carranza was expected to deal with the question of the oil production tax in tho Tampico oil fields on his visit to that port. This question, 1t was said. affects largely the German companies op- erating in the district The constitution alists have declared the tax is payable in Mexican gold. the value of which is approximately one-half that of American gold
 The German oil companies. it was con- tended. should be allowed to pay the tax in eonstitutonalist currency. the exchange on which is approximately S50 eonstitu- tionalist for Sl American.
