 You have come, MT. President to this high post in a difficult moment, but we feel sure that it's difficulties do not daunt you. You have laid down the highest post of the judiciary, which you attained in early age, your merit making up for your youth. If in the supreme court you did your utmost to safeguard your fellow citizens and all inhabitants of the republic in the en- joyment of the constitutional guaran- tees, you will not assuredly now or so long as you have the honor of occupy ing the supreme magistracy of the country, omit any honest endeavor, or any sincere effort to put an end at the earliest possible moment to the griefs and sorrows of this beautiful land. so that Mexico, entering once for all on the path leading to normal and lawful conditions, may occupy in her upward and onward march the prominent place which for so maty reasons she is en- titled to among the nations of this con- tinent.
 Such MT. President, are our fervent and most cordial desires.''

 While the committee made some progress on the bill which would give the Interstate Commerce Commission power to regulate the issuance of se- curities by common carriers, the question as to whether the commits sion should be empowered to deter mine to what use funds released by carriers from issues of securities had been used was still too undetermined. It will be several days before the bill can be reported to the senate.
 The judiciary committee, in it's consideration of the Clayton bill, de- cided that the section of the meas ure relating to holding companies, which had been tempered by the committee several days ago, should be made stronger, but it has not been able as yet, to amend the section to it's satisfaction. The matter will be considered further tomorrow.

From the standpoint of shippers important hearings in history" said Corporation Commissioner F. A. Jones rado Springs, where he attended the railroad liability hearing held this week before Special Examiner Guth- elm of the interstate commerce com- mission. Practically all the live stock shippers and railroads west of the Mississippi were represented at the hearing"
 For years the railroads of the country have protected themselves in the shipment of live stock by requir- ing the shipper to sign a release pro- viding that in case of loss or damage to shipment, the liability of the rail- road shall not exceed $50 per head for steers, s10 for hogs and s3 in the case of sheep. This provision has however been a dead letter for years, and shippers whose stock has been killed or damaged in transit have received the market value of the shipment on the date it would have arrived at market. This was due in some cases to competition be- tween railroads, and to decisions of the state courts, with the result that for the past thirty-five years the limitation of liability by the carriers has not been considered as binding by either party to the agreement

WASHINGTON. July 17.-Negotia- tions between the New Haven and the department of justice to effect a peaceful dissolution of that system have apparently come to an end. ment, the government will file its Sherman law suit to force dissolu- tion next week.
 The bill against the New Haven is practically complete, and the finish ing touches will be put on it imme- diately. Before it is filed Attorney General McReynolds will confer with the president, lay the whole New Haven matter before him and ask for presidential approval. McReynolds is understood to be loath to take the case into court, but felt that there is no other solution of the problem entangled New Haven. His ears are not closed to further negotiations with the railroad officials, but it was the opinion of the department that the New Haven has rested its case
 Official notice of the action of the directors in New York yesterday in refusing to accept the conditions laid down by the state of Massachusetts for the sale of it's Boston and Maine stock, came during the day. There is no intimation of any plan for complying with the governments de- mand that the Boston and Maine stock be sold, it is the general feel ing that the matter is closed.
 It became known tonight that the New Haven is not expected to offer any great resistance to suit It was reported that the governments bill might not be fought and New Haven might even go far as to appear in court, confess judgment and put it up to the court to determine whether dissolution shall be ordered. This would contribute to speedy deter mination of the case in the district court

Report Many Suicides

MEXICO CITY, July 17.-An unpre- cedented number of suicides and at tempted suicides have taken place since the fall of the Huerta government. In the last two days four suicides and three attempts have been reported. The residents are appalled, as such attempts are rare here. There has been not able lack of crime during the same period and tranquility in the capital con- tnues undisturbed, although feeling of uneasiness prevails
 The peaceful arrival of constitution alist troops was looked for last night, but it was understood that no constitu- tionalists will come to the capital un- til some definite settlement has been reached Every representative of a foreign power today received two tele grams from Huerta. One of these was for each diplomat personally, bidding them farewell and asking that he re- pose confidence in Carbajal; the other for the government represented, re- questing it's support for the new Mexi- can government. The only exception was in the case of the United States, for which the Brazilian minister re- Ceived no message. Members of the diplomatic corps greeted Carbajal in the national palace and expressed the hope that peace and order will soon be restored throughout the country.
 Bernardo De Cologan y Cologan, Spanish minister. and acting dean of the corps. read the following address: We havecome MT. President, to the national palace as representatives of the foreign nations in whose names have the high honor of addressing you, with the grateful impression and con- soling hope that Mexico is at last ap- preaching that peace which is so earn estly desired and which too is so in- dispensable.

RA|LR0ADERS SETTLE THEIR
 DIFFERENCES
Enginemen and Bremen on / All Railroads West of Chicago Agree to Arbi- trate Their Difficulties With Employers
IAssoc1ArEp PRESS pIsPArcHl

CHICAGO, July 17.-Engineers and firemen on all railroads west of Chica- go who threatened to strike, tonight agreed to arbitrate their differences. They accepted the invitation tele- graphed by William L. Chambers, chairman of the federal board of me- diation and conciliation and asked that hearings begin at once.
 Danger of a strike was deferred when representatives of the engineers and firemen accepted the mediation offer. A meeting of the full board will begin here on July 20. The offer of media : ton by Chambers came as the result of a request by A. w. Trenholm chair man of the committee of general man. agers, which was made in spite of a formal announcement that the en- ployes would decline to accept media tion and charges that the railroads heretofore refused to abide by the find ings of the arbitration boards.
 Following is the message of accept ance sent tonight by Warren s. Stone, grand chief engineer of the Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers and w. S. Carter, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Bremen and Engine men: We have refused to join the managers committee in a request for mediation because we feared it would be implied as an acceptance of arbi- tration. No one knows better than yourself and other members of the fed eral board of mediation and concilia- . tion, the manner in which the railroads have repudiated arbtrati ton awards. We recognize, however, that we cannot afford to refuse your courteous proffer of your friendly offices and therefore we accept same. We believe it unfair to ask US to wait four days before me diation begins, in view of the present strained relations"

Stock Shippers Attack
 Intimidation Of Liabiliti@s

reversed the decisions of the state not held to pay more than the amounts fixed by them thirty five
 years ago as the limit of their liabil- ity in shipments of live stock. Promptly on the announcement of this decision, the railroads proceeded to put the original liability clause into effect, with the result that live stock shippers all over the country
 promptly filed a complaint through their associations attacking the right
 of the railroads to limit their liabil- ity in the shipments of live stock, a limitation that is applied to no one of thousand other commodities. The complaint was made by the American Live Stock Association, the Board of Railroad Commissioners of Iowa, the Corn Belt Meat Producers Association and the Cattle Raisers'
 Association of Texas, and all the
 railroads operating west of the
 Mississippi, as well as a number of
 others were named as defendants.
 Commissioner Jones intervened at
 the hearing in behalf of Arizona
 shippers of live stock, testifying to
 the effect that the limitation of liability by the railroads in the handling of livestock is not justified
 in the light of other commodities which are handled without such pro- vision being made, and that in case of damage to other classes of com modities handled, the full market val ue is paid

WASHINGTON, July IT. - The senate committee took another firm grip on the administration anti trust legislative program, and made some progress on the Clayton bill, a measure to regulate the securities of common carriers and the trade commission bill
 While the interstate trade commits sion bill was under discussion again in the senate and being vigorously criticized by Senator Works of Cali fornia, the interstate commerce com mittee had it under advisement and practically agreed to amend the section which would make unlawful unfair competition
 Much criticism, even within the party, has been made on the vague ness of this section, the claim being advanced that it is too general in it's terms, and that it would result in endless court action for an interpre- tation.
