Commission Asks
Help Of Shippers

To All Shippers and Receivers Of
Freight;
During the next few months the
preponderance Of traffic will be out
bound from Nevada, thereby lessen
ing the number OF cars which will be
available for local traffic.
The commission respectfully re-
quests that shippers and receivers Of
freight in carload lots use every ef-
fort to load and unload cars in less
than forty-eight hours free time per-
mitted under our dcmurrage rules.
Shippers are also requested to load
cars to fu1l capacity, which will ma
terially reduce the number of cars
needed to handle their business.
Railroads are requested to handle
promptly, when billed, all carload
shipments and to move empty cars
to loading points without delay; also
to repair promptly for service III
crippled and bad order cars.
The commission feels that a CO.
operation of shippers and railroads
will assist materially in preventing a
serious car shortage. Respectfully,

WATCHFUL WAITING" POLICY
REACHING STAGE Of FRU|T|ON
By Resignation and Departure OF
Huerta Peace Will Be Restored
In Mexico, Says Carranza-Latter
Will Be Provisional President,
Following Retirement of CarbajaI

WASHINGTON, July H.-Fran-
cisco Cabrajal, successor to General
Huerta as provisional president Of
Mexico, has advised the United
States government informally that he
intended to retire in favor of Gener-
al Carranza, the constitutionalst
chief Mr.. Cabrajal wishes only that
general amnesty be promised and
protection be given to the property
TO those who opposed the constitu-
tiCnalists.
This statement OF the attitude Of
Huerta 5 successor, together with the
announcement from Monterey that
Carranza was willing to enter into
negotia lions with Cabrajal relative
to the transfer of authority at Mex
leo City was regarded here as prac
tically assuring a cessation OF hostil-
ities and the restoring OF peace in
Mexico.
Oredrs Prisoners Released
MEXICO CITY, July l7.-Presi-
dent Cabrajal has ordered all polit
ical prisoners released at once.
Most of the superior officers oi
the army are remaining here, bu;
General Ramon Corona, CHIEF Of

The standing committee of con-
gress held a session and resolved to

say whether these negotiations would

HOW FRENCH PEOPLE
CURE STOMACH TROUBLE

A household remedy of the French
peasantry, consisting of pure vegetable
oil, and said to possess wonderful merit
in the treatment of stomach, liver and
intestinal troubles, has been introduced
in this country by George H. Mayr, who
for twenty years has been one of the
leading down town druggists of Chi
cago and who himself was cured by its
use. So quick and effective is its action
that a single desc is usually enough to
bring pronounced relief in the most
stubborn cases, and many people who
have tried it declare they never heard
of anything to produce such remarkable
results in so short a time. 1t is known
as Mayr's Wonderful Stomach Remedy
and can now be had at almost any drug
store. 1t Is now sold here by
G. e. NoFthcraft Il Co.
and druggists everywhere

CAUSES MILL FIRE SCARE
Pulley Rope at Farmers Elevator
Ignlted by Friction

Friction OF pulley rope on a
man-lift caused fire scare at the
Farmers elevator this morning at
$3.50 o'clock. Men who were at the
mill extinguished the fire before the
fire department arrived and only
the small chemical had to be used.
The man-lift has a 144-lb. weight
and this had gradually worn the
rope until II broke. d. Sommer, man
ager OF the mill, and Jesse McDon-
aid. an employe, we're On the first
floor Of the building when they
heard the levator cage drop to the
bottom of the pit from the first
floor, where 1t had been standing.
Mr.. Sommer looked up the shaft,
saw the smoke end dashed UP the
stairway through smoke and some
fire to the top of the shaft. He
dumped a barrel of salt water, kept
there for emergency use, down the
weight boxing and extinguished the
fire.
The most satisfactory explanation
for the fire is that the rope which
runs over a pulley at the top and
down into the boxing at the side
was thrown off the pulley and be-
came ignited by friction. The oil on
the pulleys at the top Of the shaft
probably helped the ignition. A
burned rope was the only damage.

GIVES FREELY, BUT
HIS CHECK is NO GOOD

Manhattan, Aug. Charity is
great, but Howard Murphey, a la
borer of this city, has carried the
practice to an extreme. Murphey

erwoman, how she was getting along
and when she told him
she was $19 behind on her rent and
that there was very little in the
house for her children to eat, Muir
phey wrote her a check for $40.
Mrs. Mckinley paid the rent and
bought some provisions with the ex-
ira dollar. 1t developed today that
Murphey had rs cents on deposit in
the bank and the check was return
ed to Mrs. Mckinley. The officers
are trying to find Murphey.

LAWS WITH BLUE SKY
LAWS TO FIGHT DECISION

Topeka, Aug. 1.-The "a states
that have blue sky laws will get
together and fight the recent deci-
sion Of the Iowa federal court de-
claring the Iowa law invalid, accord
ing to John S. Dawson, attorney
general. Dawson returned home to-
day from the conference of attor-
ney generals at Des Moines, la.
The decision of the Iowa case was
based on two propositions. First,
that the blue sky law interfered with
interstate commerce. Second, that 1t
violated the freedom of contract.
The state will carry the case 70
the supreme court in an attempt to
get a decision that the states have
the power to enact blue sky law
legislation as necessary police pro-
lection for their citizens.
"The general principal involved Is
whether or not the states have the
right to regulate and supervise such
transactions" said Dawson. 1--WE
maintain that it is the exercise of
the police functions of the states.
And in view of the fact that "a of
the states have found it necessary
to enact blue sky laws to protect
their citizens, we hope to persuade
the supreme court that the states
have that power. The attorney gen.
erals will join forces in the appeal
to the United States supreme court.
