union station would undoubtedly be a
most admirable achievement. Where
ever tried, as for example, in the city
of Washington, it has resulted in in
creased comfort and convenience to
the travelling public as we'll as proving
helpful to the economic and more
scientific management of railroad
companies. The concrete example of
as splendid a result is AN OBJECT les
son before the eyes of railroad man
ayers and it would seem that all new
developments in the cities of the
United States would have in view the
ultimate gathering under one roof of
all incoming and departing trains The
commission is entirely sympathetic
with the desires of the people of
Scranton to secure the erection of a
great union station into which the
trains of all the railroads entering
that city might enter and from which
they might depart. But broad and
comprehensive as are the powers COM
mitted to it by the public service
company law, we regret that no
authority has been given to make an
order on two or more railroad COM
panies to join in the construction of or
in the operation of any such enter
prise. So long as the law remains as
it is voluntary joint action by all the
railroads. real union-is the only

RooseveIt's Army Full;
Awaits War For Action

New York. July 14.-Colonel Roose-
belt to-day went over the organization
of his volunteer division and for the
time being ordered its books closed to
the public, allowing only the an
nouncement from Regis H. Post, in
charge of the recruiting, that the di-
vision would be for real war with
Mexico and would not be raised to
patrol the border. This was Mr.. Posts
statement after seeing the Colonel
This division would, of course, have
been raised in the event of "a war, and
only in the event of war. The men
whom Colonel Roosevelt would ask to
go into it are not men who could
properly be asked to volunteer unless
there was a war; and in view of the
fact that it seems unlikely at present
that there will be a war, nothing fur
ther will be said about the proposed
division"
The at. r." division remains at
present in what is termed skeleton
form. Applications continue to pour
in upon Mr.. Post and his assistant,
Walter Hayes, the ColonePs military
secretary and the names are being
filed away and answers returned
where possible.

Now, as the matter stands, about

is to give the automobile license money

the willingness of the different coun-

Ell PASO, July l3.-Information
received here that General Trevino
furnished Villa munitions casts doubt
on Trevino's reports of attacks on
bandits around Parral.
The Carranza agents claim that
Trevino plotted to assist the Rebels
in northern Mexico, ultimately hoping
to replace Villa as their head. This,
with the Carrizal attack made on
rrevino's orders caused Obregon's
order replacing Trevino with Enri-
quez. 1t is rumored that Trevino
jailed Enriquez.
Carranzistas suspect that Trevino
is concentrating troops at Chihuahua
City.

states well founded though uncon-
firmed report.

revolted from Carranza. He would

rrevino's surrender of the Chihuahua
capitol.
1t is reported that villa threaten
ed Trevino and all the officers with
death if they refused to surrender.
When Trevino revolted his orders
were to detain a railroad shipment
thru Juarez to General Pershing
which led to suspicion that Trevino
was working with Villa to cause
war to overthrow Carranza.

learned that Carranza has proposed
