as result of Mexican troubles
Government Is Military.
In describing the Carranza govern
ment. Secretary Lansing wrote in the
report:
1t cannot be said that the de facto
government of Mexico is a constitu-
uonal government. The de facto gov
eminent. like the majority of revolu-
tlonary governments, is of a military
character. but that government has
committed itself to the holding OF elec-
tons and it is confidently expected
that the present government will with
in reasonable time be merged In or
succeeded by a government organized
under the constitution and laws of
Mexico"
Order on Border.
The report says regarding the deaths
Of Americans:
When the murder of American citi-
zens was reported the department Of
state made representations for the ap-
prehension and punishment of the as
sailants, and in some instances the de-
partment's representatives made such
representations to the appropriate Of
ficials on their own initiative"
Secretary Lansing further said that
order along the Mexican border was
gradually being restored.
President Wilson, in a brief letter
forwarding the report, said he ap-
proved of Secretary Lansing's letter
submitting the data.
Senator Fall expressed disappoint-
ment because the president and sec
rotary Of sta,e deemed it to the pub

WILSON is GIVEN
ROUSING RECEPTION
BY RAILROAD MEN

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. IL
President Wilson, who was in
this city for 18 minutes this af-
ternoon waiting for his private
car "Mayfower" to be attached
too a western express train in
Broad street station, heard
about 300 Pennsylvania railroad
employees, the majority of them
in uniform, shout that they in
tended to vote for him. The rail
road mems noisy welcome was
the result of the Adamson eight
hour law for railroad men. For
nearly every minute of the 18
Mr.. Wilson leaned over the brass
rail Of the observation platform
and shook hands with file of
conductors, brakemen, engine
men, yardmen and others who
marched past. Pullman car por-
ters, walters and cooks also
were welcomed with a Wilson
handshake.
II am for you Mr.. Wilson," was
what dozens of the railroad men
shouted up at the president as
he shook their hands.
The two cars were pocketed
on a track between two empty
trains. The trainmen surged
down the platform and Mr.. VIII
son, clad in a gray suit and
bare headed, was ready for
them. Railroad police whipped
the enthusiasts into line. In the
lapel of those not in working
clothes were Wilson buttons and
small emblems worded: eve

KLINGENSWITH CHARGED
WITH ARSON AND ROBBERY

William Klingensmith, a young
electrician of Oakland avenue,
was arrested Saturday noon,
last, on charges of arson and
robbery, growing out of the Bon
Ton fire, and now occupies a cell
in the county jail. The arrest
was the climax of a weeks in,
vestigation that had been con-
Quoted by Deputy State Fire
Marshal Clyde w. Seanor and
B. w. Ford, assistant superin-
tendent of the Pinkerton Agency
at Pittsburgh. Suspicion was
first attracted by the fact that
the wire screening had been cut
from the rear door of the Bon
Ton store with pliers that are
used principally by electricians.
In his conversation with other
persons the thread of the crime
was traced to the unfortunate
young man. His actions for the
past five years have not been
exactly sane and many little in
cidents are being recalled of
| queer actions carried on at diff
| ferent times.
Two typewriters were recov-
cred from the Klingensmith
home, also a telephone, a dozen
or so whisk brooms, spools of
thread, thimbles, nail files and
other trinkets; three pairs of
shoes, taken from Christy's
Shoe store, several safety razors
and pipes taken from the R. w.
Wenrle store. Inc typeWrlCerS
and telephone were taken from
the Indiana Ladder factory. An
other typewriter is said to have
been taken from the Wehrle
store. His mania appeared to be
for typewriters and trying to
sell one of the typewriters last
Friday suspicion was aroused
and led to his arrest the next
day. In searching the attic of
small building in the rear of the
Klingensmith home, many arti-
cles were found that had been
taken.
