THE PROBLEM OF TWO PRESIDENTS

From dispatches in today $ Times, which of similar nature received during the past week, it is evident that 1t much easier for Carranm to get American troops into Mexico than it will be for him to get them out
 No had the American soldiers crossed the border the Mexican began to take steps to have them recalled before the troops had made good start in the pursuit of Villa.
 1t is evident CarTanza hoped for speedy capture of his former lieutenant and that the soldiers from the United States would have attained their object and retired from his domain before the general public in that country of ignorance and slow communication, had heard of the venture. Then when they it, it would be easy for Caranza to assert the invaders had been forced to retire at his command.
 The elusveness of Va however, has rendered this plan impossible and the weeks engthen into months the 1rs chie is having difficulty explaining to his ignorant people the for the presence of the deested grgo soldiers o Mexican soil.
 is now conceded that the repeated reports of Villas death emanated largely the Carranza government which by that simple hoped to turn back the Americans from their quest.
 In lesser degree the problem confronting President Will similar o that which Carranza trying to solve The American people many times demanded intervention in Mexico As the different outages against American dignity were forgotten overlooked by busy people, it appeared though this country would insist reparaon from its southern negbor. The outrage at Columbus however, not o overlooked and soldiers sent punitive podition after Villa.
 With the feeling in this country at the present pitch PrcSl dent Wilson withdraw the troops from Mexico with out having accomplished the object for which they sent Public opinion in Anerca while 1t works different than in Mexico is just potent and the storm of protest which would ascend if Funston to withdraw without Villa IS body would be disastrous the present administration
 In the meantime Villa is hopscochng around among the cactus in Mexco apparently obvious to the uneasness which is causing the presidents of the two North American republics

: Pr railroad Track NSaf
Olanfa,

Olanta, Nov. Saturday night
about 10 o'clock when passenger train
No. 5 from Alcolu to Olanta was
about five miles south of Olanta the
engineer says he felt a shock from
the train having run over some OBJ
Ject which he supposed to be a pile
Of slabs. The train was stopped and
on investigation it was found that
two negro men had been run over.
The bodies were about 20 feet from
each other, lying on opposite rails,
each with his head on the outside of
the track and feet on the inside of
track. The wheels had passed over
their bodies just below the shoulders
crushing every bone, but NOT severing
the bodies. Conductor Floyd imme-
diately notified the head Of the Alco-
lu railroad at Alcolu who notified the
coroner Of Clarendon county. The in
quest was held Sunday morning, the
verdict Of the jury being tina: the ne
groes came to their death by being
run over by passenger train No. S. A
special train was run from here Sum-
day morning to the scene, Of the
killing when about 200 citizens went
down to view the bodies and attend
ed the inquest. The negroes killed
were Pringle Burgess and Leonard
Gaskins of near Scranton. They were
seen in Turbeville about two miles
from the sceen of the killing, Satur-
day afternoon.
The opinion OF the majority Of
those who viewed the bodies is hat
they were murdered and Their placed
upon the railroad track to cover up
the crime. 1t is said thai there was
very little blood found where the
bodies lay on the track, and MEM
bers of the train crew say that the
feet Of these negroes were cold when
they found them. 1t is almost certain
that the railroad company will not

will be made.

WAITS EVIDENCE ON MARINA.
AMERICAN GOVERNMENT WILL

fore Full Reports Are at Hand to
Determine Action.

Washington, Nov. 2.-Conclusive
evidence as to whether Germany vio-
lated her pledges to the United States
in tie sinking apparently without
warning Of the British freighter Ma
rina, with the loss Of six American
lives is not expected by the state de-
partment before the latter art of next
week. Secretary Lansing, before
leaving tonight for his home at Wa
tertown, N. Y, to stay until after the
election Tuesday, said information
was coming in slowly to the depart
ment, that he would not be leaving
Washington if anything final were ex-
pected Immediately and that at least
a week was expected to elapse before
full evidence would be at hand.
Even though all information de-
sired from British sources the Arneri-
can survivors Of the Marina were at
hand, any action by the United States
government would be delayed pend
ing Germany's reply to the informal
request for her version of the incl
dent. In previous instances where
such a request has been made, a week
Or more has elapsed before the at
tacking submarine has come in and
several days further have been needed
to collect and transmit the informa-
ton. American officials in England
have sent out only a few dispatches
In the last "a hours, not including
any afidavits or summaries Of afi-
davits.
