rries, a lonely Mexican living on the Tiddriston ranch, six miles east of the city, tolght a dmgy Kerosene lamp be- fore he fell into a sleep Sunday night from which he did not awake yester- day morning
 The dead man, lying on rude pallet on the floor of the little shack, was found by II. L. Tiddrington and wife yesterday at noon when they went to the ranch. The lamp was still burning in the bright sunlight that filtered into the room through the drawn blinds. Apparently Amarries had realized that he was about to die and had lighted the lamp and then reclined on his rough couch to await tne, end. His face was calm and his hands were clasped over his breast and seemingly the last had been peacefully and quiet.
 Coroner Comstock was called and investigated the case. The remains were taken to a local undertaking and an outpsy was ordered. The coroner decided, however that no inquest

DISCUSSES
 ENGLAND'S POLICY

London, July i.-(S:30 a. m)--A discuss sion of the German policy is reproduced by the Times from German newspa pers. Dr Ernest Jaecl<h. a well known writer. maintains that English statesmen would rather lose Calais than Suez and con- tends that England's main desire is to protect Egypt
 Count Non Reventlow, military editor for the Tages Zetung, says that the at tempted invasion of Egypt in January was ap experiment only and that German en- glneers are now building Syrian rail- way and a Sinai railway which will con vey artillery land open the w.y from Constantinople to Suez. He adds that the way from Berlin to Constantnople must be opened by decisive victory in Galicia {: then England can be struck mortal blow in Egypt
 'Engands main interest in the Dar- danelles." he says, "is the protection of Egypt and that is the explanation of all the efforts to range the Balkan countries against the Teutonic alles.'
 Count Von Reventlow disa grees with Dr. Jaeckh in thinking Calais less important to England than Suez and says that the question of Calais is more complicated, but equally important.

 Practically all of the. official Ger man statements not sent by cable through British territory have been received by the Sayville station. These would come as before. No cipher mes sages except for foreign embassies have been permitted to be sent under the censorship originally imposed, ard such code messages were dispatched only after approval by the state de- rartment. The sending of certain mes sages phrased in plain English, but ap- parently having a hidden meaning is said to have aroused the curiosity of the navy censors.

BODIES HUNG BY RAILROAD LINES
Horrible Conditions in Mex leo Pictured by Visitors
 to Country

Jalapa, Mexico, June 26-(By mall to New Orleans. June so9-Bodies of two men. one hanging from tree and the other from telegraph pole, and thou sands of hungry women and children crowded into freight cars or huddled be- side railway stations; destroyed bridges, wrecked trains and entire Villages de- serted or ruined, were among the incl dents observed today on a journey to Jalapa from Vera Cruz. 50 miles from General carranza's headquarters. The trip was through what once was one Of the richest sections of Mexico Every where it now presents scenes of idleness, ruin and human misery.
 Bodies dangling from trees or telegraph poles, hanged first by one faction and then by another as a warning to the enemy that no quarter was to be expected also were reported by Americans ar irving from Oaxaca and interior points
 Typical Incident
 Another incident typical of others ot almost daily occurrence was the finding d1l the Jalapa railway station platform of the bodies of dozen men and women who recently had been killed. Three per sons lost their lives when trainload of Carranza soldiers with women camp fol lowers ran onto a bridge from which the rails had been removed by Zapata forces. Several cars listed and the soldiers and women on top of the train fell Into the river below About 40 were injured.
 Jaapa, the capital of Vera Cruz state, has suffered less from starvation than many other parts of the republic because 1t is the center of a fertile region, vet there has been much suffering here. The normal population of 20,o00 has been swelled to 3O000 because of the arrival ot refugees from the surrounding villages.
 Confirm Reports
 Inquiry among the better classes of Mexicans tended to confirm many reports that noncombatants were growing tired of the domination of military chiefs and whatever means it might be brought President Wilson's recent warning to the military chiefs thai they must surrender their personal ambitions to the welfare of the millions of Mexican noncombatants Is gaining favor.
 Oaxaca state on June 3 declared It's m dependence of revolution and announced that 1t would maintain it's sovereignty until the remainder of the republic was at peace The merchants of that state asserted that they would no longer sus- fer levies for the support of any military faction. The stand taken by Oaxaca has been reflected in other states and in many cities it is said, and it is declared that now a large portion of the noncombatant population is quietly exerting it's influ- ence against continued disorder.
