Favors Returning Railroads.


The Tennessee railroad commission
has declared in favor Of the return OF
railroad properties to their owners.
The views OF the commission are
contained In a letter that has been
sent to all members of the Tennessee
/ delegation in congress and to the in.
terstate commerce commission OF the
United States.
This letter was transmitted through
Secretary Elmquist. Of the war com
mittee of the National Association Of
Railroad Commissioners.
Tho Tennessee railroad commits.
sion will be obliged II you will lay be-
fore the senate interstate commerce
committee the following statement Of
its views expressed in general terms
as to the proper solution Of the rail.
road problem now confronting.
I'VE are opposed to the government
ownership Of railroads. and favor. the
return Of the railroads to the private
control and operation. subject to state
and federal regulation. as early as pos
sible. and we do not believe that the
period Of federal control and operatio,
should be extended beyond the 81
month period fixed by act Of con-
gress.
I'VE believe that congress sh01ld
by proper Legislation provide for gov.
eminent supervision and control OF
the common use Of terminals. the re.
routing OF traffic. the issuance Of So
curities. the matter of freight embar'
goes, the merging of railroad lines and
systems and the pooling OF equipments
and the apportioning OF revenue de
rived from pooling arrangements.
in our opinion a wise public policy
demands that in dealing with the rail.
roads and with public utilities gener-
ally the first requirement is efficiency
OF service at reasonable cost to the
public and to secure these ends the
rates In each instance should be so
regulated and fixed on basis OF fair
capitalization as to take care Of the
cost of operations. the maintenance In
COED condition OF the properties. and
provide for a reasonable return on the
capital invested"

JENKINS'S ATTORNEY

Arrested on Charge of Com
piicity in Kidnapping.

WASHINGTON, oct. %. - Advices
reached the State Department to-day
stating that Senior Mestre, personal at
torney for William O. Jenkins, the
American Consular agent in Puebla,
Mexico. who was kidnapped ana ran
somed for $150,000. had been arrested,
charged with completely in the kidnup-
ping,
State Department officials regard the
arrest of Mestre and the charges off,
cially made in Mexico that Jenkins was
in plot to be kidnapped and ransomed
FOR large sum as another example of
the Mexican Government policy of at
tempting to cloud the issue by raising
false issues in the endeavor to cover
up the 'ineffiCiency of the Government in
protecting foreigners and nationals
throughout Mexico. 1t is likened to the
charges made by the CaTanzlstas that
the oil company paymasters robbed
themselves.
The charge has been openly made by
the State government OF Puebla that
jenkins acted by orders of the United
States Government to hide himself and
thus provoke n grave International situa-
tion. This is branded by State Depart
ment officials as being utterly absurd" A"
1t was learned to-day that the Mexi-
can Government has seized all the cor
respondenCe of Jenkins and his wife In
;ho hope of finding something upon
which to base the charges of conspiracy.
Articles have appeared in some of the
administration newspapers OF Mexico
city charging vaguely that Jenkins was
in arrears 500. 900, nearly the amount
of the ransom. IN revenues to the Next

ever. explained that it was not known
for what this revenue was owed.
