AWAITS INSTRUCTIONS
OF HOME GOVERNMENT
Mexican Ambassador Designate
Postpones Negotiations on Diff
ferences With United States.

Following a talk with Secretary Lam
sing at the State Department, Eliseo
Arredondo. the Mexican ambassador
eraI instructions from his government
to discuss with the State Department
the points on which there Is disagree
ment he would await new orders from
Mexico City before undertaking the
proposed negotiations. He added that
he did not expect to take up the ques-
ton of arranging credit for his gov
eminent, but would leave that to DR..
Alfredo Caturegli. Gen. Carranza's
financial agent, stationed at New York.
One Point Suggested.
1t is believed here that the question
of constructive measures to stabilize
the Mexican government will come up
before the conversations have progress
ed very far. The Washington admin
istration is understood to be firmly con-
WINGED as ever that the only proper
and efficient cure for the distressing
conditions Of Its southern neighbor
must be found within that country, not
through Intervention. At the same time
a cure for the lawless conditions in the
border states must be found before the
United States can feel justified in abat
ing in any degree the preparations it
is making to protect it's frontier by
force of arms.
To Demand Withdrawal by q. 8.
There is no question that the Mexican
government will contend forcefully for
the withdrawal of American troops
from Mexico Since the purpose to COM
pei the withdrawal has been abandon
ed, however, officials do not look for
another deadlock on that issue. Presi-
dent Wilson Is said to be ready to order
the troops out promptly when he has
any assurance that it will not mean
merely a renewal of the conditions that
caused them to be sent in. But no
plan of action now agreed upon can be
based upon an agreement to withdraw
them.

MAR|COPA TO

Development of Pumped
 Water for Irrigating townsite Gives Cause for Existence Besides Pres ence of Railroad Junction

It seems the town of Maricopa, Ari- zona, is about to have its chance. Up to the present time it has owed its existence to the fact that it is a transfer point on the Southern Pacific railroad for passengers and freight destined for Phoenix and the Salt River valley. Now it is about to have it's own life and industries
 In December, 1915, the Whyman Land x Development Co, bought the 10000 acres owned by the sugar com pany through Moore & Hayes of Phoenix. A little later they bought the Maricopa townsite from Perry Williams. Since then this company has been rushing in well drilling and pumping equipment in order to de- Velop water on the land controlled by them. Some weeks ago they celebrat- ed the completion of the wells that furnish water to irrigate the townsite and on Saturday of this week they

UNSHAkEN CONFIDENCE

Doc Braney has opinions that are curious but strong. He says in spite of all the news, the world ain't going wrong. In spite of all the bitterness and
 readiness to fight He thinks the world is gettin on an lookin' for the light. It's hard, when you are listenin' to suppress a little sheer As, in the face of facts, he utters arguments so queer. But, while the cannon sounds afar, his head he sadly shakes An says the best intentions are de- layed by mems mistakes. He says the world is gropin' cause it's rather young as yet An hardly strong enough for all the tests that must be met; An when men seek too swiftly to attain the hearts desire. They are liable to stumble an be landed in the mire. He claims that sad experience must point out the better way That's bound to lead mankind to health an happiness some day; That the world is gettin' better, not withstandin it's distress The way Doc talks is always mysti- flying, more or less.

AUSTRALIA WILL
 HOLD TRADE AFTER WAR

MELBOURNE, Australia, May 16.- The question of post-bellum trade, which is being considered by all the entente allies. is receiving it's share os attention in Australia.
 The federal parliament has already annulled certain metal contracts un- der which German concerns gathered supplies of ores from Australian mines and had entered largely into the con duct of the mining industry of the Comn1onwealth. It has furthermore set out to insure that smelting of na- tive ores shall be done in Australia so that by the time the war is over the local smelling plants shall be in- dependent of German works of the kind. The federal government has also tackled the complicated question of patents held by German firms or individuals, and has removed from them the protection of the British crown on the principle that that pro lection had been abused and cerain firms declared to be "enemy firms have been shut off from further busi- ness, while others of suspected quasi enemy character have been obliged to pprge themselves of reputed or proven German or Austrian influences, personal or monetary.
 But it is being urged that private and individual steps in the direction indicated have so far amounted to almost nothing, and that chambers of commerce and of manufactures should enter more heartily into the cam paign. Notwithstanding there have been speeches, interviews and sugges- tions by business men of more or less prominence all over Australia and trade fairs and like affairs have been held to give point to the cry for trade within the empire" and nome manu- facture and consumption" the net eff feet. it is contended, has been small.

a2s RAILROADS ESCAPE
 SINGLE FATAL WRECK.

CHICAGO, May IS. - All American railway safety records were broken in 1915, when 325 American roads reporting to the bureau of railway news and statistics here, went through the entire fiscal year of June 30 without a single fatality to a passen- ger in a train accident. These roads operate over 161,948 miles. It is said that this record of safe operation has never been equalled by the railroads of any other country in the world
 All American roads in 1915, operat- ing more than 25O,O0O miles of line, reported 1s6 passengers killed. The latest reports of the railroads of Eu. rope with 187,995 miles show 779 passengers killed. The American railroads reporting immunity from fatal accidents to passengers carried 485, ,166,546 passengers a total dis tance of 5.967.435 passenger miles.

About 100 men now are working on tho Conner River & Northwestern railway the other side of Chitina, ,eveling the track and replacing bad ties. according to Superintendent CaIeh Corser who yesterday returned from trip out the line.
 If is estimated that at least 100000 ttas will be laid this summer. as the -,pes used in that piece of track have ;not stood up under the heavy traffic sos well as those used on this end. sBlack spruce ties were used north of 5Chitina and now about SO per cent .are unfit for further service. The ties ,used out of Cordoys were coast hem '1ock and fir, and although they have tbeen in place eight years, are yet in Egood condition. Those which now are gheing replaced have been in use only Sfive years.
 WILL TRANSPORT FISH. All the ties now used by the Cop per River railway are fir, which were brought up this winter and spring. Although they cost more than the spruce ties, they last much longer. It is said, and are more satisfactory. Arrangements for the transporta- ton of fish from the Abercrombie canyon. where they are caught, to the Copper River cannery, at Mile 55,. and the Carlisle Packing Co.,, at COrdova, have been completed by Superinten. dent COrser. Flat cars, which have been fitted with new smooth floors and sides, will be used to carry the fish. If they are caught in sufficient quantities a through train will be run daily.
 All the gear for the canneries Is ready for the run of salmon, which Is expected to reach 55 in about ten days.
 The steam shovel will start work about June 1 raising the track in the vicinity of Mile 65. At this point de-

Commerce adopted this resolution, which may be taken as a fair ex- ample of action by other similar bodies in other parts of the Common wealth:
 That this chamber places on rec ord with view to stimulating and in creasing production within the em- pire, and thereby to some extent cas- ing the enormous financial burdens forced upon us by the nations at pre- sent at war with us, it's desire to CO., operate with any practical proposals for the encouragement of trade with in the empire, and believes that the imposition of a surtax on goods manu- factured within the territories of such nations will be, the most effective
 aeans to attain this end. IKiE
 That the British and Australian governments be urged to cooperate with the manufacturing industries by establishing laboratories and centers of scientific research, such to be available to manufacturers throughout the empire"
 scientific management" as it Is known in the United States and Is practised in Germany, has been agi- tated in Australia before the war broke out, but on the whole the prin- ciples of it had met with a cold re- ceptlon. Now it is coming to the fore with an emphasis derived direct ly from the war, but what will be the outcome time alone can tell, since the average employer in Australia be- lieves. that he has little to learn on this score; he is hampered by state socialist laws, and the powerful trades unions hold to the view that "scien- tiflc management" is merely another name of exploitation of the working classes.
 Then there is the matter of ship ping with which, in the case of Aus tralia, 1t Is said a heavy blow could be dealt German commerce after the war should Britain. the British do- minions overseas and the allies of Great Britain to resolve upon policy of penalization. The Commonwealth has a coast line as great as that of the United States, 1t is a heavy inn porter and it maintains a huge water borne traffic with Europe. Asia and America. On this point the Austral- ian section of the London Chamber of Commerce has come out strongly in support of this proposal by Brit ish Chamber of Commerce committees
 Evidence brought before us has dis closed the extent to which enemy shipping has been subsidized by the German government, mainly for the benefit of the export trade in compe- tition with British, neutral or allied | shipping-a fact which has been brought home in connection with the l large quantities of goods of British | ownership contained in enemy vessels | taking refuge or detained in neutral ports since the declaratio of war. The trade sections, with practical experi- l ence of this kind, generally agree that a substantial tax leviable by the states | of the empire, should be imposed upon the tonnage of all enemy ships using | the. ports of the empire after the war"

 TRAINS ON SCHEDULE.
 Trains now are running on regular schedule, and Superintendent Corser reports there is no difficulty in taking the ore from the mines and keeping the vessels at Cordova supplied with full cargoes. There are yet about 2,5OO tons of ore at Chitina and Strel- na. which was yarded there during the ice trouble, but this gradually will be brought to Cordova.
 There are now 19 flat cars at Se- attle, which are due here on any boat, and on their arrival the last of the ore will be brought to this port if it is not here before that time.
