Washington. April General Carranza informed American Consul Sillmau at Vera Cruz today that ne would furnish train for Americans desiring to leave Mexico City. He will permit a passenger train from Vera Cruz to proceed as far as Ome- tusco. forty miles east of Mexico City, where the Americans will be picked up. The first chief asked 10 he notified as to the number of Amer jeans expecting to leave and the time they wish the train to be ready
 The action grew out of the effort of the United States government to obtain the naturalization of the rail. road between Mexico City and Vera Cruz. Although unwilling to make any permanent arrangement, General Carranza now has expressed a desire to aid foreigners who are anxious to reacn the sea coast
 Many Americans and foreigners in Tampico similarly are planning to leave as soon as transportation ar ,angements can be made Secretary Bryan sought the aid of the war de. partment today and the transport sumner at Galveston, was ordered to Tampico to bring back the 800 or more foreigners.
 Tn its summary of reports from Mexico today, the state department said work was proceeding slowly on the railroad south of Piedras Negras because of lack of material, and traf- fife would not be resumed for three weeks.
 Some fighting was reported from the west coast and the outcome of an attack on Acaponeta by Carrauza forces was not definitely known Both forces were short of ammunition, the
 eport said. A mail censorship has been established at Colima.
 The abandonment of the proposed Villa attack on Nuevo Laredo was reported from the border General Hernandez having returned to Piedras Negras with his forces and the re- maining Villa troops not being strong enough to attack.
 The Villa agency made public today the following statement from Diaz Lombardo, minister of foreign affairs. explaining the recent mining decree.
 The provisional government does not mean to conliscate the mines, but to re-establish in effect some proy- sions of the old mining laws which provisions are universally adopted and enforced, and which consist in de- claring the forfeiture of a mining property wheu without Justified cause. # is not developed and oper- ated within a given time or wnen the owners of said property fail in tht payment of the taxes. One of the provisions of the old law Te-estab Ished is that no mining property can exceed 15 pertenencias (m!nine claims) for each individual or l50 for a company.
 This last legislation will have mo retroactive effect. Existing prope tios are not subject to its appHca- ton It is intended only to take care of future claims

THE DESERT
Wilbur-Dorlaan Pumping
Plant Tried Out With
Success-Will Mean Re
claiming of Many Desert
Acres

AT about the same hour that the
speechmaking at the Roosevelt dam
celebration commenced at Roosevelt
on Thursday, the pumping plant on
the Dorman- Miller tract of approx
mately 1000 acres and located seven
miles northeast of Mesa was put in
motion. The far-reaching extent of the
experiment is Understandable. The idea
Of the men interested in the vnture
IS to make OF the land huge fruit
farm. The experiment had its incl
piency two years ago when several
score of orange trees were taken to
the desert and transplanted with the
idea that the warmer air of the higher
ground and somewhat protected by the
foothills would insure immunity from
the frosts and killing freezes of win
ter. That the venture is success is
demonstrated by the further expendi-
ture of money and time in working
out a pumping proposition on an ex
tensive scale.
In case the pumping of the warm
underground water onto the land
proves n success it will mean the uti
liking of thousands of acres of some
Of the richest land in the state. If it
can be demonstrated that citrus trees
can be grown at a profit on the land
that is now in 4 desert waste then the
day on which the big pumping plant
was put in operation will so down in
history alongside that of the day that
water first flowed over the spillways
at Roosevelt. The pumping plant has
a greater scope for the reason that its
limitations Will not be bounded as in
the gravity irrigation systems. There
are hundreds of thousands of acres Of
land lying east of Mesa ready to be
taken up under the homestead act,
which are just as susceptible to irri-
cation and just as we'll protected from
the lower temperatures as is the tract
already being placed under irrigation.
