 ON WILSON OFFERS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

WASHINGTON. August S.-Reports began to arrive at the railroad admin istration late today from over the coun- try saying that the striking shopmen were returning to work pending the adjustment of their wage demands by Director General Hines.
 Kansas City and Cincinnati officials expressed belief that normal conditions would prevail tomorrow. At all places where men are out, local officials Of the railroad administration are CO., operating with union chairmen in ex- blaming the necessity for going back to their jobs at once, which President Wilson made a prerequisite to the opening of negotiations.
 Indianapolis and Denver were the only places from which came reports that the men were refusing to resume their places. Union headquarters were equally sure that the shopmen would make it almost a 100 per cent return.
 Tt is a little too early to get mass of Hreports from locals, but we have already been notified by a number of union officials that their men intend- ed to go back at once," said Acting President Jewell of the railway section of the American Federation of Labor.
 We should be able to commence negotiations next Tuesday with MT. Hines, on the terms of the presidents letter. with the men back at work"
 About 10000 out of the estimated 500.OOO men in the shop crafts have walked out, to date, according to union estimates.

DOUGLAS, Aug. S-Preliminary hearings in the Bisbee deportation cas- es were this morning continued until Monday, after testimony had been given in the local justice court against three more defendants: Chris Marshall, Oscar Wager and Burrel Slaughter, Bisbee mining men, charged with kid mapping for alleged participation in the deportations
 County Attorney R. N French an nounced this afternoon that he hoped to have completed by Tuesday all of the hearings of. the 51 cases now under way.
 Witnesses for the state testified to having seen Marshall and Slaughter armed, on top of the train of boxcars that carried the HOO l. w W. strikers and sympathizers from Warren, Ari- zona, to Columbus. New Mexico.

No testimony that indicated that the defendants in any of the three hearings used any violence or abused the men was of fered by the states witnesses.

SENATE STARTS DEEP PROBE IF
 MEXICO AFFAIR
Full Authority Given Com mittee - Will Bring Out All of Facts-May Result in Forming a Definite Mexican Policy

WASHINGTON, Aupg. S.-Blanket authority to bring out all the facts about Mexican outrage on Americans and American property and to formu- late a remedial program was given to the foreign relations committee today by the senate.
 By unanimous vote, a resolution dl- recting the inquiry was adopted after it's provisions had been stiffened in committee so as to make subject to in- vestigation "any and all acts of the governments of Mexico and it's citizens in derogation of the rights of the United States or it's citizens"
 Later, Chairman Lodge named a subcommittee, headed by Senator Fall, republican, New Mexico, to do the actual work of examining wit nesses and collecting information. The subcommittee will begin it's task within a few days.
 The provision authorizing the com mittee also to recommend what meas ures should be taken to prevent fur ther outrages was added at the sug- gestion of Senator Ashurst, democrat Arizona Under this clause, it is ex pected a definite Mexican policy will be formulated and submitted as a rec ommendation to the administration.
 May Take Months
 In the opinion of some foreign re- lations members, the task before the committee will be matter of months
 Senator Fall made it clear tonight that his subcommittee would take full advantage of the broad authorization conferred and would not be sparing oi time or resources in it's attempt to un- cover the whole story of Mexican in- fringement on American rights during recent years It is thought likely that the work of the subcommittee will take it to the Mexican border to in vestigate conditions there, and may bring before it some of the high of ficials of the American government Beside Senator Fall, the members are Senator Brandegee, republican, Con necticut. and Senator Smith, democrat Arizona.
 The resolution authorizing the in uuiry was introduced by Senator King democrat, Utah. The original plan O. republican leaders was to have an in vestigating committee composed o both senate and house members and { joint resolution for that purpose wa. blocked in the house.
