FOREIGN ENJOYS
TO QUIT MEXICO
Diplomatic Corps Planning to Withdraw
From Country and Leave Their Affairs
In Charge Consular Officers Sugges.
ton Cabled to European Government.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Withdrawal
from Mexico City Of many foreign le-
cations was imminent tonight be-
cause of friction between the Carran-
"a government and the diplomatic
corps. Some of the prominent dip
lomatic representatives of European
countries already have cabled the,;
home governments suggesting that
inasmuch as communication ic grow
ing more and more restricted ahd lit
tie respect is given them by the
Carranza authorities, 1t might be ad-
visable to unite with other govern
ments in q movement to abandon all
foreign legations in Mexico.
AS the American embassy has teen
closed since the rupture with the
Huerta government, the action on
the part OF the other diplomatic mis-
sions is being considered without con-
sulting the United States, SO far as
Is known.
Would Sever Relations
The plan of the diplomatic corps
in Mexico City, which is understood
to be acting as a unit. Is to leave
affairs in Mexico in charge of con-
sular officers. This would mean
practically a severance Of diplomatic
relations by all countries and present
a unique status for Mexico in the
family OF nations.
The situation in the Mexican CAPT.
tai has been replete with diplomatic
embarrassment since the rapid
changes in executive authority en-
sued. When General Carranza, in
his capacity as first chief Of the con-
stitutional army, first abandoned Mex
leo City and moved his capital to
Vera Cruz, he invited the diplomatic
corps to accompany him. The diplo-
matte declined, asserting that such
a step might be construed as rec
ognition Of his government. Since
then the relations between them and
Carranza have not been cordial.
Spanish Minister Menaeed
The return of the Carranza auth
ority to Mexico City, where General
Obregon is in command now, has
developed into menacing situation
because the latter has threatened by
direction of Carranza to deport the
Spanish minister unless Angel De
Case. who claims to be confidential
agent of the Spanish government, Is
surrendered from his hiding place, in
the Spanish legation. He is accused
OF completely In the villa movement.
Some of the embassies here tried
a few days ago to communicate with
their missions In Mexico City and
had the cipher messages returned
to them. Since then there has been
a modification Of the embargo on
code messages.
So far as is known. the City OF
Mexico Is quiet.

RATE INCREASE
IS GRANTED ON
SHIPPING STOCK

WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.-The rate
increases granted the railroads by to-
days orders are estimated to add any
where from $1,000,OOO to $500, 900 in
ennual revenues to the carriers &C
counts. The commissions order be-
comes effective January 13, 1916.
The increases are granted on all live
stock except horses and mules and
packing house products in the terri
tory east of the Mississippi, north of
the Ohio and West of Pittsburg. Ger
tam increases on live cattle and
packing house products from the mid
die west to England points are justi-
fed. Increases on hogs and sheep be-
tween points east of the Mississippi
and north of the Ohio are justified.
Some Of the proposals Of the rail
roads to increase the number Of pounds
to be carried at a carload rate are
declared justified and others not. The
carriers proposal to receive increased
rates on live stock from the eastern
territory to points west of the Mis-
sissippi was rejected.
Among the reasons for permitting
the increase to become effective are
the high cost of carrying live stock
incident to the feeding, watering, dis
injecting pens, OBTAINING cars at ter
mfnals to permit inspection and
switching. Today's decision also ad-
justs some Inconsistencies which the
commission has found

the connected load of each factory,
and secondary charge OF one cent
for each kilowatt hour consumed. At
the present time the minimum power
charge is one and a half cent per
k. W. hour.
This proposed preferential schedule
would only be economical to po-er
consumers using 1000 or more k. W.
per month, factories which continu-
ously operate electrical machinery
during a working day of at least nine
hours To power users which operate

+ II is stated that there are now at
least ten factories which use as much
power current as the four concerns
which have been receiving the special
rate from the L., H. and p. for the
past year, and, Superintendent Klein
knecht OF the city plant, contends it's
uniform application In Richmond
would probably induce several other
plants, now depending mostly upon
steam, to use electric power exclu-
sively.
"The city can afford to offer these
large. power users this preferential
rate" Kleinknecht said today These
plants operate practically ALL the time
during the off peak period at the two
local electric plants. If we do not
have this business during the off peak
period a good part of our equipment
stands idle. Now if the volume of the
plants business during the off peak
period can be increased then the cost
of production is reduced"
A year ago the commission author
lied the L.. H. and P. to offer a pre-
ferential rate to out OF town patrons OF
that company, and, incidentally, told
the company it could also offer the
same rate within the city. The COM
pany promptly contracted with four
large power consumers. The city pro-
tested and the commission announced
that it would rescind its order. How
ever. the order has never been rescind-
ed, SO the city is now asking that it
be permitted to share with the L. H.
and p. the benefits of the preferential
rate.

argument with a friend in which the

The University freshmen this year
have strong convictions on the sub
ject of the war, if n may judge from
the themes which were a part of their
entrance English examinations. The
students were given their choice OF
writing a letter or a theme, and the
war was a very popular subject, pre-
sumably because it gave a chance for
the outpouring of eloquent vocabu-
laries.
One bow became paradoxical in the
ardor with which he c~hampioned the
cause of the Allies. and then, by way
of anticlimax. insisted on remaining
perfectlv neutral. Some of his fer
vent sentences were: Thus the Al
lies are fighting a horde of soldiers
trained from the cradle up. born with
the valor and gore of war pulsing in
their veins. with the heritage of peace
and contentedness forever chilled.
AWAY back before the beginning OF
this whirling vortex of earth shaking
strife. we find the germ OF world colo
nization growing in the Germans until
they became a mass of minimizing,
war crazed people. The Allies are IN
no condition to ght the maniacal lust
of the Germans. But do not wish
IN take sides and say who / hope will
win"
In another strong pro-Allies paper,
he writer says: If the
should win. they would predominant

tenn of government to all parts of the
globe which would be contrary to the

spirit, thought they might be con-
sidered lacking in literary flavor. If
the real letters home resembles these
fictitious ones, the freshman here must
form the intellectual bulwark of the
respective families. One boy is
pleased with Columbia. but ~patroniz-
ing, and seems to realize that he is
here for academic training, for he
uses that word when another one
would have served his purpose better.
He says: After getting settled think
Columbia a fine little town. BY the
will of fate l found a comfortable
rooming house. The street going out
to the house is smooth and pictur-
esque academized road"
Another writes: After an hour of
good hard looking l arrived at a place
which l thought would like to take
me from the appearance of the sign
on the tree in front of the house"
Another gives minute descriptions
of his fellow roomers. the house fur
nishings, the meals he has eaten and
even goes SO far in self-analysis as
TO think that his present condition
rather excels anything that may come
to him in the future. He ends his
letter by saying: The wall paper
in my room is light brown. and the
lace window curtains to match are yell
low with brown flowers croqueted in
the border. Around the drop light in
the center of the ceiling we have an
arch of pennants all of different colors

admittedly thorough and efficient Ger
man spy system is up against a most
thorough and efficient stump in Eng
land.
One of the unhealthiest obstacles
for agents Of the enemy's intelligence
department is the anti-spy section of
Scotland Yard.
Official reports, Just issued, show
that ten alleged spies of various ma
tionalities, all of whom were de-
clared to be working for Germany,
were bagged before any one of them
had been in England three weeks. Four
readily confessed.
This list, however, represents but a
fractional part of the most recent
fruits of the British dragnet. On two
occasions. it is unofficially declared.
the authorities in London cleverly
Unanswered to round up dozens of
spies who had beer operating in Lon
don in the guise of British army Of
fcers. The method was simple as it
was effective. The war Office is SAID
to have informed all army officers in
the metropolitan area to refrain on a
certain day of recent date from trav-
cling on any trains of the great sys-
TEN of underground railways of the
metropolis. The order was strictly
obeyed. Every officers uniform that
boarded an underground train that
day contained a spy. The spy bag was
full that night.
Change in Movements Reveals Spies.
Several days later, the war office is
said to have repeated its warning, this
time in%structing officers to keep off
of the motor buses that travel by hun
dreds on London's busiest streets. The
result was similar. The spy bag was
filled again.
But this is only one of the many meth
DDS through which spies are caught in
England. Another is chemistry.
1t was chemistry that told the Brit
ish authorities that what appears TO
be an American passport is not always
the real article. A government chem
list informed the authorities that the
great and powerful red seal of the
American State Department had been
forged by the enemy; that the Secre-
tary of States signature has been pho
~tographed from a genuine American
passport in Germany and applied to a
spurious document carried later by a
spy in England. It was the
chemists proof, linked with other
proof, linked with other features car
ried later by a spy in England. 1t was
the chemists proof, linked with other
features that followed, that caused the
spy to confess that he was furnished
