Fl Paso, Sept. 13-The situation in Mexico and On the American border is becoming worse, and those in touch with 1t can see no other rem edy than the intervention of United States troops. Brigandage is com mon everywhere, and there is ab- solutely no order of any kind. Force is the only thing recognized. Word was received here this morning that Edward Ledwige manager of com missary for the Mexican Northwest ern Railway was taken off the train yesterday by bandits near the Cumbe Tunnel, and is held for a ten thous- and dollar ransom. Rancher Lowen. bruek. who was reported several days ago as having been kidnapped on th" American side of the line and taken to Columbus, Mexico, where he was held for ronsom, is reported to have made his escape and is on this side of the line again. Firing from the Mexican side of the line at anything moving on the American side of the line is common all along the Rio Grand. The snipers have dug them selves in in many places and cease their shooting in the presence of superior numbers on the American side, only to resume as soon as the situation is reversed. The declara- ton of martial law along the river has improved matters somewhat, but reign of terror continues. Business of all kinds has been suspended in the border towns, and many of the residents of those places are now con fronted by want.
