just One Chance
WASHINGTON, Jan 15-Thsre is
just ore chance that the United States
VIII demand reparatioa, Including in
'demnity, from the Carrznza govern
ment for the murder of seventeen
Americans near Chihuahua week
ago. This single chance hangs on the
answer consul Edwards at FL Paso
makes to an. inquiry teisgraphed him
this evening by the state department
In effect, the state Departments
query to Consul Edwards is:
did you ask any Carauza officials
TO guarantee the safety Of Americans
who went into Chihuahua and was
this guarantee given by a recognized
oMcialo-
II the answer is yes, the Carranza
government viii be held responsible.
But such an answer would mean,
virtually. that Consul Edwards ex-
ceeded his authority or misnnder-
stood Instructions which the depart
ment sent him January 2. Just what
these instructions were, officials re-
fused TO say. They did not deny
specifically that Edwards was instruct
ed TO request guarantees.
While the point thras brought I'D
might slightly szn5arass this govern
ment pushing any demands for re-
parstion, and deIaF settlement Of any
controversy that might thereby arise.
II was stated that @any demand that
might ne made. viii be pushed to

EIGHT HOUR LAW MAY PROVE
BOOMERANG TO UNIONS

Mackinac Island, Mich, Sept IA
Samuel o. Dunn of Chicago, editor
of a railroad magazine and who
acted in an advisory capacity in the
negotiations which preceded the
passage of the Adamson law, sug-
gested in a speech here that the
eight-hour law may prove a boom
erang to the brotherhoods.
"This law" said Mr.. Dunn, docs
not limit the number of hours that
railway employees may work in a
day 1t merely limits the number of
hours that the railway may require
them to work before it pays them
days wage In other words, it fixes
an eight-hour pay day, and not an
eight-hour work day

MAY HAVE INTERNATIONAL
PEACE GUARD ON BORDER

New London, Conn, Sept. 15.-
Serious consideration is being given
by the American-Mexican joint COM
mission to the idea of establishing
some sort OF an international police
or neutral constabulary along the
Mexican border, it became known
here today. 1t was suggested that
the force be composed of former
soldiers OF both countries. Ender
Joint control and that the ex1.anse
be shared by both governments. In
favor of the plan, it was arg -. that
the Mexican people would not feel
toward the constabulary the same
hostility that they displayed toward
the American troops which have
crossed the line. 1t is also suggest
ed that the police force would be
far more effective in clearing the
mountains of northern Mexico OF
bandits than either Mexican or
American troops.

British Officials and American
Firms to Meet In New York
NO REPLY YET TO U. s. PROTEST
To BE Held In New York
VIII Not Affect Illegal Mail
Seisures Letters of Assur-
ance Only Temporary

Washington, Sept. ia con-
ference between British embassy
officials and representatives of i'm
portant American firms which have
suffered from the British mail cen
sorship is being arranged by the
embassy to work out an expeditions
plan for the handling of CONNER
cial mail through the censor's Of
flee.
The conference will be held soon
in New York, with Sir Richard
Crawford, commercial adviser of
the embassy, as the chief represen-
tative of the British government.
While any arrangement which may
be privately arranged is expected to
be satisfactory to the state depart
ment, officials said the negotiations
with Great Britain regarding lille
gal mail interferences would not be
affected. The British reply to the
last American protest is expected
here daily.
Neither the British embassy nor
the state department has yet receiy
ed a response to inquiries sent to
London regarding the new British
restrictions on American commerce
with Holland and the Scandinavian
countries.
The American ambassador to
Great Britain, Walter Hines Page,
who is in this country on vaca-
tion, called on British Ambassador
Cecil Spring Rice but it was declar-
ed the visit was purely social.
Embassy officials said that the
recent withdrawal of the letters of
assurance for American and other
exporters to sell certain commodi-
ties to Holland Scandinavian coun-
tries is merely temporary.

Hand Batueships So Successful
Against Germans Are Tractors
GERMANY HAS NUMBER ALSO
British Government Bought 1000
Tractors Of Peoria Manufac-
turer and Now Uses Them
as Armored Cars

Washington, Sept. 19.-The Brit
ish tanks" the armored motor cars
used in recent assaults on German
trenches in northern France, SO
successfully as to attract world
wide attention, we're built for the
most part in Peoria, Ill, in the form
of caterpillar tractors designed many
years before the war began to meet
some of the difficult problems OF
modern farming.
1--WE have sold about 1000 cater
pillar tractors to the British gov
sernment," said NJ NJ. Baker, vice
president of the firm which manu-
Hactures the machines. I'VE have
had nothing to do with putting ar
NOR on them or placing machine
guns, but some of our men at Alder
shot, England, recently were noti-
fled that the British government in
tended to armor some of the trac-
tors and use them for work other
than the usual towing of big guns.
Germany had some of these trac-
tors before the war began and, al
though do not understand just
how it occurred, / believe she may
have got others since"
Mr.. Baker said he did not know
how many of the 1000 tractors sent
to England had been armored and
put in service as land battleships,
nor did he know what equipment
the British war office had placed
upon cars to be used in this work.
Mr.. Baker said the tractors sent
to England weigh about $4,000
pounds each, develop 100 horse
power and are built of steel.
