PLAY AMERICAN MUSIC
Mexicans Greet Cattle Train With
''Stars and Stripes Forever @'4i

Nogales, Ariz., Aug. 12.-The Stars
and Stripes Forever"-that's the tune
the Mexican band played in Nogales,
Sonora, today, when a trainload of
stolen American cattle came to town.
The idea of greeting these trains of
cattle with band is now an old one,
but this is the first time the Mexicans
have added this final insult by play
ing patriotic American march.
The cattle were taken from the
Alamo Cattle company and constitute
the third lot stolen within week
They are brought within sight of the
American linz and there slaughtered
and fed to the Mexican soldiers and
civilians. The owners have not been
given so much as a memorandum re-
ceipt by the Carranza officers who
have taken their stock. They are not
allowed to drive their remaining cat
tie out of Mexico and they are net al
lowed to cross the International boun-
dairy

POLLUTED RIVER WATERS
DESTROY FISH IN POTOMAC
Experts Aboard the Fish Hawk Find
Water Heavily Charged
With Sulphide Gas.

Waters at the mouth of the Potomac
river are polluted, resulting in the de-
struction of fish trying to get up the
river, according to report from ex-
perts aboard the United States bureau
of fisheries steamer Fish Hawk, who
have been making an investigation.
The Fish Hawk experts found the
waters of the deeper portions of the
river heavily charged with sulphide
gas.
THE most obvious explanation of this
pollution" says the report, appears to
be that extraneouS matter-Silt, Vege-
ia BILE material. tannins, glucosides from
forests, etc.--carried in suspension is
precipitated when the fresher river
water meets the saltier water of the
bay, and these precipitates fall to the
bottom and are decomposed by desul-
phurizlng bacteria. The gases SCI free
by this decomposition not only injure
aquatic life directly, but also indirectly
by depriving the water of free oxygen
Even if these conditions do not cause
d considerable mortality among the
fishes they may have a marked in
fiuence upon their migration and in
other ways possess an important bear
ing on local conditions.
Further Investigations are to be
made.

DISTRICT LABOR.NG MEN
TO FORM AN ORGANIZATION
Judge Robert n. Terrell Makes Ad-
dress on Subject at Meeting in
o Street Armory. at

Figures showing that there are about
10000 common laborers in the District
who might advantaeeously band to-
gether in an organization were pro-
duced before mass meeting of labor
ing men called to cement their forces
in the o Street Armory last night
The need of such an organization was
pointed out by Judge Robert H. Terrell
Of the Municipal Court. The meeting
was held under the auspices of the
Stone and Building Laborers Union,
Local No. As. and Judge Terrell urged
that the proposed organization be con-
structed upon lines similar to those fol-
lowed by this union.
William L. Hawkins who presided
suggested the establishment by Local
No. 46 of it's own employment office and
insurance company. He urged passage
by Congress of bill compelling en-
ployers here to make provision for
'aborers injured in the pursuance of
their duties.
1t was announced that d campaign
would be begun at once to increase the
membership of Local No. As, making it
a thoroughly representative organize
ton. The entrance fee viii be reduced
during the campaign for membership.
