WITHDRAWAL OF TROOPS BEGINS
 CRIME WAVE Destruction Is Rife Restruction Is Rife
 In Mexico TAKE TRAIN JUST
 OUT OF PUEBLA 100 Passengers Seized Loot Amounted to
 100000 Pesos

Laredo, Tex, July 10. CCorrespon- dence of the Associated Press .)- Withdrawal of troops from bandit in- tested regions in central and southern Mexico to campaign against Villa in the north has led to a, new wave of train wrecking and railway destruc- tion in that republic according to stories printed by Mexico City papers received in this city.
 The most striking feat of the reb- els was the capture of a train from Mexico City to Puebla at a point only a few mile from the latter city by the forces of the former federal general, Cirilo Arenas. who revolted about a year ago. One hundred of the several women passengers were seized as hostages, among them an American, Charles Chapman. They were driven for hours on foot over rocky trails to the headquarters of the rebel cheftain. s4ater they were released without being held for ran som and made their way safely to Puebla. The bandits loot is estimated at 100000 pesos.
 This followed close on the heels of the capture of six we'll known residents of Mexico City at a picnic resort lsnown as the Desert of the Lions, not more than a dozen miles from the capital. The captors, former followers of Zapata, sent the women of the party back to Mexico City for a ransom of 2,40O pesos and re- leased their captives when the money was delivered
 More than 100 followers of Pedro Gabay are reported to have been killed when federal forces recaptured the town of Chocoman, state of Vera cruz
 The Excelsior tells of the murder by bandits of the millionaire, En- rique Langenschein, son of the Ger man consul at Guanajuato. Langen- schein met death at the hands of reb- els fleeing from Michocan into Jal- isco, who caught him on his ranch near Lake Chspala.

London. July 10. (Correspcndence of the Associated. Press )-"Rotten. low and futile" Miss Lena AshweII. one of the best known English act ressCs. has characterized the drama of today as represented on London's stages. Addressing the inaugural meeting of the British Drama Lea sue. she said, nothing could be more detrimental to the wholesome life of tho nation than such plays.
 What astounds me-" she contin- ued, Ifs that there is no apprehen- sion in this great country of the power of the drama"
 She recalled that during the war Germany sent Shakespearian compan- fes to Switzerland, while English dramatic art was represented in Paris by revue. At the time of greatest stress none of the men from overseas who came to London had the opportunity of seeing any of the plays which represent EnGland's national ideal. Hiss Ashwe11 Geclar- ed.

''No one assumes that union scale of wages in the building industryis going down in some years Nor does anyone expect that building material prices will go down to where they stood be- fore the war. Hence, all things considered, many owners will unquestionably decide that it is more advantages to build now than to wait.

PAID FIGHTERS OUT:
PROMINENT CITIZENS
MAN FIRE STATIONS

Jacksonville, Fla, June 1.-THE
municipal fire stations here are
manned tonight for the most part
by volunteers, hundreds of Jackson
ville's most prominent citizens
volunteering for service during the
strike of the paid department.
Promptly at $50 p. m. the fireman
walked out of the station leaving
only the chief and three assistant
chiefs of the paid department on
duty.
By a prearranged plan the stations
were quickly taken over and manned
by volunteers. It is estimated that
100 firemen are on strike. The mu-
nicipal authorities are recruiting an
entirely new department and state
that they have the situation well in
hand.
Disorders occurred at two stations,
the volunteers being attacked as they
entered the engine houses. The dis
turbances were quickly quelled.
Charles Van w Cornell, manager of
tie Florida inspection and rating bu-
reau, in a statement today said there
would be no change in present fire
insurance rates here as result Of
the strike situation.
The walk-out arose over alleged
dismissal of fireman for union actiyi-
ties.

may GIVE MORE POWER
TO STATE RAIL BOARD
Lawmakers Declare That Railroad
Commission Should Have Full
Control of All Questions At
fecting Public Service
Corporations.

Atlanta, June 12.-The situation
! which has developed in Atlanta in
connection with the strike of the tele-
+! phone and telegraph operators, or any
| strike for that matter, has been COM
! mented upon by out-of-town visitors
who see in it possibilities that are
| dangerous to the peace and welfare
| OF Tic state as a whole. Lawmakers
who L.. bee, in the city are not
the least backward in saying that the
/ Legislature, which is soon to convene,
! should take whatever action may be
necessary 10 prevent the people out
side of Atlanta from being constant
ly disturbed by the horde of labor agi-
tators who try to dominate city af-
fairs and politics here
1t cannot be denied, as pointed out
by a well known lawmaker today,
that the control of local politics in the
larger cities of the state might easily
drift into the hands of the worst ele-
ments of society. The census of 1910
shows that at that time there were
IA 500 men of wiling age in Atlanta,
In the last city election, although
every effort was made to poll a heavy
vote, there were registered approx
mately 10000 men, This shows that
over so percent of Atlanta citizens fail
to vote, and these 60 percent, as has
been pointed out, undoubtedly are the
business and professional men of the
city.
The daily press in many cities.
largely controlled by union labor, has
been slow lin many cases dares mott
to criticise even the most fragrant in
fractions of justice, law and order, if
perpetrated in the interest of strik-
ers. City police, in many cities, par
ticularly in the north and east, APP
parently are unable to preserve order
and have often been accused of wink
ing at violence. Sad, but true, mayors,
councilmen, policemen and even
judges must propritiate the labor vote
to retain their offices.
What should be done?" This ques-
ton has been asked many times.
There is but one answer. The state
authorities, say these lawmakers who
re talking on the subject, should
take a hand, a strong hand, in set
ling labor disputes, rate disputes and
what not, in which the general pub |
lie is concerned The railroad com |
mission, composed of capable men, is |
a disinterested body, working for the |
best interests of the state. The men, |
bers hear both sides of a question. |
They decide these question on their
merits Full and unqualified control |
of all public utilities in the state ought |
to be in the hands of this commission
And the legislature, taking Opin-
ions of individual members who have |
expressed themselves, eventually may
be depended upon to strengthen the
hands of the railroad commission.
Should this be done, both employees
and employers of public service cor
porations will be forced to settle their
disputes as to wages and employment
conditions without the interference of
agitators and politicians.
