sensible enough to take such absurdi-
ties at their true value, even II editors
are foolish enough to publish them.
The impressive thing to a civilian
during the present trying situation is
the restraint, fairmindedness and seri-
Gus desire for justice on the part Of
the professional, fighting men of both
the army and navy. You hear It in
the wardrooms of the dreadnoughts
and the little rolling destroyers, under
the officers tents, under the hot sun
shine and all along our twelve-mile
line.
1t is the people who have made more
money in Mexico than they could any
where else who are the fre-eaters and
talk Of sweeping the Mexicans off the
map. The responsible fighting men are
nearly always openminded and anxious
to learn. and if they are restless at the
present delay it is not merely a desire
10 practise their profession, but because
they see no way In which the Ameri-
cans can retire with justice to Mexico
or honor to themselves.

The general purchasing agent Of the
Mexican National Railways called at

ton of the lines. He was assured that
Americans would be glad to see the ser
vice restored and trains operated regu-

The Americans. he was told, we're never
able to understand why General Mas
considered it necessary to tear up sew

REVOLUTION NEAR
END, SAY REBELS
Zapata Joins ConstitutiOnalists
and Is Expected to Help in
Reducing the Capital.
lnr rel.rrnrh 70 rhe Tribune. J

Torreon, Mexico, May 24.-Genera
villa began to-day the second stage o.
the rebel invasion of strictly Fedora
territory. when he sent force OF Z'VS
men With a railway repair tram 10
Zacatecas.
The Federal evacuation OF saitiio
makes it possible now for Villa to de-
vote his entire force TO the campaign
around Zacatecas, from which point ne
expects to proceed rapidly into tins
southern country.
villa has withdrawn practically MS
entire army from the Saltillo country
for this Zacatecas campaign, and TO-
day seventeen trains are being loaded
here with men. supplies and equipment
for a general movement which has TO-
its purpose the taking of Mexico Cts
with the least possible delay.
Emiliano Zapata, whose operations
around Mexico City have filled the Fed
erals with fear. is acting now under
orders Of Generals Carranzs and Villa
and is expected TO assist materially IT
the Mexico City attack by capturing
the suburban towns before Villas army
arrives. Advices were received here
to-day saying that Zapata has occu-
pied Cuernavaca, which is short dis
lance from the capital and commands
an entry into the city proper
Zacatecas is 2S7 miles from Torreon
and. the railroad being in bad con-
dition, it is not probable that Genera
Villas army can reach there for sew
eral days. IN the mean time General
Natera is besieging the city with 4,Wt
men, and it is believed he can prevent
the 1900 Federals in Zacatecas from
escaping before Villa arrives. Villa
expects to proceed from Zacatecas al
once TO San Luis Potosi and thence
direct to an attack upon Mexico City.
Rebels believe the revolution practi-
cally at an end. They think the Fed
erals will evacuate every city now held
by them as quickly as rebel troops APP
proach, and that it is only a question
of days until Huerta's entire armed
force will be concentrated in and
around Mexico City and ready to sur
render.
Villa expects a battle at Aguas Ca
lientes, near which city his forces must
go on their way to San Luis Potosi.
A free hand and a private car have
been given by General Villa to George
c. Carothers, special representative OF
the State Department, who is accom-
panying Villas army on its southern
campaign The car was placed to-day
at the disposal Of Mr.. Carothers, and
orders were given by Villa for it to be
moved when and where Mr.. Carothers
orders. 1t is National Railways car,
formerly used by the superintendent
of the Torreon division, and is fitted up
with stateroom, office, buffet and
kitchen. Two Chinese cooks were
given with it.

At Portsmouth there was an air or

there is an atmosphere of subdued in
tensity.
Too Early for Crowds.
IT is too early in the season for
crowds at Niagara Falls. The summer
girl has not emerged from her chrys-
ais. 1t is still too cool for the sum-
mer tourist to blossom in profusion,
and possibly the atmosphere of the
conference may have taken on some
thing of its solid British surroundings.
But there are deeper reasons for the
solemnity which surrounds these pro-
ceedings, for 1t would be Americans.
not japanese or Russians, who would
give up their lives for their country
should the mediation fail-it would be
American homes which would be be-
reaved each time a Mexican bullet
found its mark. II would be American
streets which would echo to the dirge
Of military bands and 1t would be
American wives and mothers who
would wear mourning should war, not
peace, be the outcome.
Nineteen Americans have already
given up their lives in the war which
was stayed only by the good offices of
the mediators, and an untold number
OF Americans would be added to the
sad roll Of honor should these earnest
and altruistic diplomats fail of their
high purpose.

COMPLETE HILL
GUT THIS WEEK

The final work on the Fifth street
hill will be completed this week. The
hill has been thrown open for teams
and automobiles for several days and
all that remains for the completion
is the removal of some rocks in the
center and the general leveling of
the road all the way up.
The completed road as it stands
represents the expenditure of a large
amount of money. The cut has been
made in the form of curve and the
curve starting half up the incline.
Several local people have suggest
ed that the sides. specially along the
lower half should have some kind of
a retaining wall erected to prevent
the rocks as they break off from
rolling down in the road.
Residents of Orchard Mesa and all
others who are required to use 1t
often are much pleased with the cas-
Ter grade.
