(COntlnued rom page One.D tain advantages which would prove fruitless if she espouses the cause of the other side"
 Carlos Gonzelas Penas, novelist, said:
 "The war not only effects the na- tions engaged but is battle of nation alism against absorbing brutal militar- ism"
 Arturo Cisperos. journalist, wrote as follows:
 We cannot longer permit within Mexico the carrying on of German es- pionage. The odious campaign of that part of the Mexican press which is subsidized by Germany and which sends out news prepared in Berlin is calculated to divide public opinion as in Spain. Perfidious Germany has sought at all costs to embroil us with the United States. This is proved by the publication in the pro-German pa pers of the United States of stories of wireless dispatches between Mexico and Berlin of an alliance against the United States between Mexico and Salvador and by declarations that high Mexican officials have been paid mil lions of dollars to secure support for Germany. To these intrigues we should respond by a declaration of war"
 Luis Ledon said an alliance with Germany would be highly disastrous for Mexico, for assuming that the Ger mans should repulse the attacks of the Americans in Europe they would come to Mexico and conquer it as tasce of operations against the United States as they crushed Belgium.
 We should ally ourselves frankly with the United States" said Senor Ledon. "on moral as well as economic grounds for they have all the money we require for the rehabilitation of our country"

B0OTLEeGER TRIES TO
 KILL OFFICERS NEAR
 TOWN OF SAN SIMON
Rollin Chambers of Douglas Fires At Officers Who Try To Stop Him While lie Was Bringing In a Load of Whiskey.

Rollin Chambers, a Douglas boot legger, and who IS known here, Is agaIn in pad with the mnlons of the law. A jew days ago he hlred a car from Rincardson and Snotwell, or Douglas, and made trip to kodeo. he was returning with a load o1 contra band and had reached point beIW een the Charles Hall rancn and Cav6 Creek, on the north side of the Chlri- cahua mounIalns, when he ran intS Constable Whitley of San simon, anu his partner. lie was ordered to nalt by the officers, but instead ne opened fire on them, firing four shots, all of which went wild. They returned the fire and damaged the machine so that Chambers was compelled to leave the car. He fired one more shot as ne left the car but it also failed to hit the mark He returned to Douglas and re- ported to the owners of the car that he had been shot at by some one who tried to hold him up. The owners of the car went to San Simon and found that the car had been badly punctured. They wanted to collect damages from the officers. but after making an investigation decided to try 10 collect it off of Chambers. The of ficers learned of Chambers episode. and he is now under arrest. As there is a two-years' suspended sentence hanging over him it is probable that he will spend the summer in the vicinity of Government Draw, between this city and Tombstone, improving the highway.
 The car was new one and had been driven but about 300 miles The own CTS of cars are beginning to realize that it does not pay to rent cars to bootleggers as they are compelled often to make long trips to recover them and often find them badly wrecked.
 A man named Proble was yesterday trying to locate his car that was III the possession of Charles Anderson when he was arrested for introducing whiskey. It will be necessary for him to make trip to Apache to recover the same, as did another Bisbee auto owner few days ago.

Belgian Mission to
 Visit Large Cities
(By Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The Bel gian war mission, having expressed to American officials Belgium's gratitude for what this country has done for her stricken people, regards its work here as complete, since it came neither to seek money, men or ships, nor to give advice.
 Now that the mission is here, now ever, officials are eager to show 'n a more perfunctory way their deep sym pathy for Belgium's war aspirations. Suggestions will be sought on many phases of the war, and it is likely that the mission will visit several other cit ies in order to further cement the bond between the two countries.
 Tonight the members were the guests of Secretary Lansing at a for nal dinner.

JUNE RAILROAD REVENUE
INCREASED BY s8,O0o,oJ1
Figures Indicate 1917 Will Be Ban
ner Year for Nations
Carriers.

June was the banner month for 153
railroads. operating three-fourths of
the countrys mileage, according to
figures made public by the Interstate
Commerce Commission. The roads re-
ported that their net revenue increased
nearly $4,000 600 over June. 1916, the
previous record month, and reached a
total of sSS,2s3.S29. Operating revenues
increased more than $4,000. 900. total
ing S213.S67.527. while expenses were
approximately s30.000.0o0 higher than
a year ago. \.
The greatest increase is shown by
western roads. whose operating reve-
nues jumped from S94.00o.000 to s11Q,-
100000. Expenses increased approx
mately $4,000. 900. leaving net revenues
from operation of s39.616.95s. or about
900 more than in June, 1916
Eastern roads show an increase in
net revenue of approximately $500. 900.
Operating revenues increased S15000-
900. totaling s120.S65.2 62 while expenses
increased approximately S14.400,000.
Preliminary figures covering the first
six months of 1917 show an excess of
$4,000 goo in net revenues over the rec
ord figures of a year ago. This in
crease was in the face of several bad
months during the winter. The returns
are interpreted as indicating that the
railroads will exceed in 1917 by many
millions the banner figures recorded
last year.
