REBEL OUTBREAKS
in MEXICO BULKED
LARGE IN ADVICES|
Trainmen on Lines Of Isthmus Are
Warned by RevoIutionists to
Obtain Other Jobs.
DESTROY BLOCK HOUSES

tRy The Associated Prcssj
WASHINGTON, ID. g., May 29.--Rcvo-
lutionary outbreaks bulked large in advices
"Wednesday from Mexico City. General Err
ncsto Ramy, major, four other officers
and 40 men, composing train guard on
the Isthmus of Tehuantepcc railroad, were
killed recently in an attack by rebels under
command of General Felix Diaz- General
'Ramys body was brought to Mexico City
for public funeral, reported to have been
attended by thousands.
The train on which the soldiers were rid
ing was dynamited by the rebels, who have
warned the trainmen in that part Of Mex
leo to find other employment. In written
notices, scattered broadcast. the rebels say
they intend to stop all traffic on the 18TH
mus line and the line from Mexico City to
Vera Cruz, but that they do not wish to
kill or injure innocent men.
Block houses built along the Vera Cruz
and Isthmus lines to protect transportation
are built, according to these reports.
The troubles in the South, coupled with
the fact that Villas activities in the north
have necessitated sending troops to cam
paign against him. have reacted in the cap
isaI seriously. IL is reported Military
guards in Mexico City have been doubled
and machine guns have been placed on the
roof Of the national palace and cathedral.
There Is said to be strong feeling Of un-
rest in the city and some rioting has result
ed.
General Obrcgon's refusal to take che
field against Villa is said 10 have added to
the feeling Of uncertainty IN the capital be-
cause his friends cmphaticaIly state that his
refusal was based upon the belief that Car
rama was unable to cope with the present
situation and he doubted the loyalty Of the
conscripted- federal troops.
Several other generals have refused to
take the field through desire to retain the
concessions" In Mexico City, which were
given them by Carranza.
Miners at Vclardena in the state of Dur
ango have asked Carranza for protection,
as they fear daily an attack from the Willis
tas.
An official report from Torreon to Mex
leo City said that Villa attacked the fed
eral troops at Cuencam and after bat
tie of five hours the government forces
were compelled to retire to await reinforce
ments.
Other advices told OF an engagement
which occurred north of Torreon within
the last ten days, which resulted in de-
feat for the government forces under Gen.
eral Dicguez. who recently was sent north
by President Carranza to relieve chihuahua
from the viIlista menace.
General Dieguez in this engagement is
said TO have lost thirty carloads Of military
supplies in addition to considerable loss in
killed and wounded.
Villista forces are said i'm these dis
patches to have surrounded Chihuahua
completely and relief for the Mexican cap
ital is described as being cut off entirely.

President Wilson took a solemn
oath at the Inauguration, to rrotect
and defend the constitution of the
United States. Now, he is endeavoring
to at least nullify, if not entirely de-
stroy the cardinal virtues of that God
given document, the instrument that
has made US the greatest, most pros
porous, most honorable, and most re-
spected nation on the face of the
earth. When that vile covenant call
ed the League of Nations becomes a
law, our constitution has lost its vir-
tues, andewe have become as common
clay minus all of our present height,
moral standing and undisputed infiu-
ence for good. In short, we are on a
common level with thee corrupt ma
tions of Europe.

To the Honorable Mayor and Mem
q bers of the Commission
Hays Ciy, Kansas.
Gentlemen:
I beg to submit herewith my report
for the month of August which is as
follows:
Light and Water Department
During the month of August we
pumped 9,874,O37 gallons of water
and generated 35,397 kilowatts of
current with consumption of Al tons
of coal and 1872 gallons of fuel oil.
The total load of 35 ,397 kilowatts was
divided as follows:
Street Lights 2735 K. W. H.
Ornamental Lights, 81
Pumping Water, $3.50
Commercial and Line Loss 23781
Repairs for the power house were
delayed this week due to the error in
shipment of fittings and we are now
planning on making the repairs, Sun
day, September 7th, that we figured on
making last Sunday.
A concrete tank has been built a.
round the 10000 gallon fuel oil tank
and we are now equipped for all oil
storage.
The street department are making
diligent repairs and filing in street
crossings and cleaning and flushing
sewers.
The office records are now in good
shape and am glad to state for the
first time in many months all current
bills are collected in full.
The following is a complete state
ment of the expenditures for the
month of August:
The Hays free press. [volume] (Hays, Kan.) 1908-1924, 1919-09-04
2463.38 4342.O8 1880
EXPENDITURES


In the above statement of expend-
itures in the light funds is included
$517.25 for repair material to put the
light plant in shape and $502.78 for
new meters and transformers so that
you can readily see with the proper
credit given the light department for
street lighting and pumping of water,
the light plant should from now on
show a reasonable profit each month.
In the item of expenditures for the
water department, $676.83, $454.00
of this amount covers new meters.
These meters were necessary for the
replacement of old worn out meters
and also to be placed on services that
have previously been fiat rates.
There is no question in my mind
whatever but what from now on our
receipts from the light and water
should exceed the disbursements each
month.
Respectfully Submitted,
J. G. Manning,
City Manager.
