THE CIVIL WAR IN MEXICO

In the early part of the year it was
evident that Francisco Villa had the
ambition to become the political War
wick of the republic Of Mexico. On
January he deposed the provisional
governor, Gutierrez, and installed Gen
eral Cara in his place.. He was still
master of the situation at the City of
Mexico, and Carranza still maintained
his stand at Vera Cruz. Meantime, the
fighting went on uninterruptedly, with
varying results, but none decisive.
In June the situation on the border
and elsewhere became so irritating
that the United States government
felt compelled to give official warning
to the fractional leaders that failure on
their part to come to some agreement
would necessitate Intervention. De-
spite this intimation, the forces of
Villa and Carranza continued to keep
revolution aflame, and by midsummer
the Mexican situation seemed to be
more inexplicablef than ever. Villas
star waned perceptibly. A new mill
tary influence, General Obregon, took
the center of the stage. He assumed
the leadership of the Carranza faction,
and his military successes were con-
siderable. In July General Gonzales,
another Carranza supporter, fought his
way into Mexico City, displacing Gen
eral Zapata, who held the place in the
Villa interest. Later, Gonzales was
driven out and THE situation was 50
threatening to life and property in the
capital that, in August, American bat
tleships were ordered to Vera Cruz
but we're not put into action. In this
month, also, an appeal signed by Sec
rotary of State Lansing and the repre-
sentatives of South and Central Amer
lean governments asking all warning
elements in Mexico to get together in
an attempt at pacification was sent to
the various leaders. During Septem-
Der the fighting on the Mexican border
grew more desperate. There we're
many fatalities before United States
troops gained control of the situation.
On October 10, nine of the principal
governments of the American hemj-
sphere, headed by the United States,
recognized the de facto government of
Mexico of which Carranza is the chief.

On August 10 the British liner
Arabic was torpedoed by a German
submarine and several Americans
were drowned. A lively diplomatic
controversy followed, and the tension
in thc United States was at the break
ing point. On September the Ger
man government notified the United
States that the captain of the subma-
rine had torpedoed the Arabic in self
defense, believing that she was about
to ram him. On September 8 the
United States asked Austria Hungary
to recall Doctor Dumba, it's ambassa-
dor, charged with being active in a
movement to cripple American manu-
facture of munitions. On October 5
the German government disavowed
the act of the submarine captain who
sank the Arabic. At this time it was
announced that the pending French
British loan of $500,00O,0O0 had been
oversubscribed.
The United States secret service.

on the ground of pernicious activity.

lures is the extension of the suffrage

latter part of the month, a new revolu-
tionary movement broke out in Haiti

wage increase was obtained and the
strikers resumed work. July "a, a
strike for higher wages. and shorter
hours at the Remington Arms works,
Bridgeport, Conn, resulted in a vic
tory for the employees. August 4, a
threatened strike involving $4,000
workers on worhan's garments, in
New York city, was prevented by an
increase in wages. 1:.s
In September, the long and not in
frequently violent dispute over indus
trial conditions at the mines Of the
Colorado Fuel and Iron company was
brought to an end. John D. Rookie
Teller, Jr., made an extended visit Of
investigation to the property and as
an outcome suggested a plan for ad.
justing differences which was accept
ed by the miners in a formal refer
endum vote. An agreement was
signed to maintain the present wage
scale and the eight-hour day until
January /, 1918. The demand for
union recognition made by the miners
was not granted, but many conces-
sions were made by the company in
favor of the employees.
In July a miners strike practically
put a stop to the great Welsh coal in
dustry. After several conferences
between Mr.. Lloyd George, the Brit
ish minister of munitions, the colliery
owners and representatives of the
miners, the trouble was settled July
20, and the men went back to work.
Further strikes and lockouts were
prohibited by law.
AS early as June 30, the state of
American foreign trade showed bal
ance of exports over imports Of more
than $1,000,000,0O0. This was a new
experience for the United States.
The yield of wheat for the year, &C.
cording to the latest reports, exceeds
1000, 100000 bushels, the largest on
record. A corn crop of 100000, 900
bushels, at current prices, makes It
the most valuable ever harvested in
the country. The American oats crop
is also one of the most bountiful on
record.

Sigourney, Decisive suspicious
looking characters sold to James
Douglas, a junk dealer of Hedrick, a
quantity of old brass and copper on
December IA. On that same night
the same junk was stolen from Doug
lass and the next day q corresponding
quantity of old brass and junk was
shipped from Sigourney to Des
Moines by two fellows who, however,
materially differed in their personal
description from the fellows who had
sold the junk TO Douglass.
Mr.. Grimes notified the police de-
partment at Oskaloosa and on Dec. II
Douglass went to Oskaloosa and iden-
tilted two arrested men as the fellows
who had sold him the junk at He'd
rick, these fellows being under arrest
on charge of stealing junk from
junk dealer at Oskaloosa, and the Os'
kaloosa junk dealer there identified
junk they had when taken as his
property.
1t is supposed that the junk which
was stolen from Douglass was the
same junk which was shipped from
Sigourney to Des Moines the next
day, because the latter was of about
the same kind and amount as that
which was stolen Sheriff Grimes
is now trying to head off the Doug
lass junk at Des Moines. Evidence
found shows that these fellows belong
to an organized gang which has head
quarters at St. Paul, MINI.

INDUSTRIAL AGITATION

Early in the year, the meetings OF
the Industrial relations commission.
held in New. York city, attracted much
attention on account of the promi.
nence of some of those who were
called to testify. The chief purpose
of the investigation was to obtain the
opinions of well-known capitalists and
employers on the present relations of
capital and labor. January 10, guards
in factory near Roosevelt, N. j.,
fired on a group of striking workmen,
killing one man and wounding several
others. April 16, in Chicago, 1900
carpenters went on strike for an In
crease in wages. June IA, motormen
and conductors on the surface and
elevated railways of Chicago, $4,000
In all, struck for higher wages and
a complete tie-up resulted. The dis
pute, however, was settled by arbitra.
ton after two days of business paraly-
sis. The carpenters strike in that
city, which had crippled the building
industry for several months. was end
ed by a compromise wage agreement
July 10. Ten days later, a strike of
10000 garment makers in New York
city was averted by a wage increase
of from IL to IS per cent.
In July the employees OF the Stand
ard on plant at Bayonne, N j., went
on strike and serious rioting Followed.
During the lawiessness which pre-
yaileds two strikers were killed and
many policemen and onlookers were
injured. After q week OF disorder, Q
