NO REPLY TO BE MADE
 TO MEXICAN GOVERNMENT

Washington, Aug. 15.-No answer to the reply of the Mexican government to the state departments warning that failure to protest Americans might re- suit in a radical change Of policy. will be made. Officials explained today that the United States would wait un- til President Carranza displayed eith- CT unwillingness or inability to afford Americans the protection they had a right to expect, before taking further action.
 One of the first possibilities of ac- ton, should the government be forced to it, would be to withdraw diplomatic representatives or even to withdraw recognition of the Carranza govern ment. Active intervention Is consid- cred in most quarters a remote meas ure at this stage
 The c lrranza government by spe- ciaI provision has been receiving arms and ammunition from the United States, but it was indicated today that the decree forbidding eXportati0n of war munitions to Mexico would be applied to the government as well as to individuals until further proof had been given that foreigners would re ceive adequate protection.

Curtis forbidding them to join an organization outside the depart ment except associations of war veter- ans, organized a union tonight under charter from the American Federation of Labor. Members of the new union said that about 1.400 members of the force participated in the afternoon and evening meetings.

Barry Jennings, business agent of the Boston Central Labor union. and James T. Moriarty, a member of the city coun- cil. Mir. Mccarthy told them that as members of organized labor they would be expected to be faithful to themselves, their brother members and their employer.
 MT. Jennings said that the policemen would have the backing of S0,000 union members. men and, women. in this city in their determination to orga nize. Mir. Moriarty referred to working condi- tions in the police department and de- clared that the department ought to be under the direct control of the city government instead of being a wea- pon for the use of state politicians"
 The patrolmen present did not dis cuss any grievances and made no ref erence to a possible strike.

New York. Aug. 15.-New York city faced today the possibility of a trac- ton strike more far-reaching than the recent walkout in Brooklyn. The threat of a strike to become effective Sunday morning unless a wage in crease of 50 per cent Is granted in stead of the ten per cent announced Wednesday, was made by the motor men employed on the subway and ele- vated lines of the 1nterborough Rapid Transit Company who are members of the employees brotherhood fostered DySthe company. /
 Announcement that the company had refused the demands was promptly met with a statement issued to the public by Mayor Hylan Tn which he charged the strike was being engineer ed by collision of the company of ficiais and as part of their progra rnE1e to force higher fares from the city.
 This threatened strike looks like what the police would call an inside job, said AI.- Hylan. Tt will really be . strike by the Interborough, it's officials and employees against all the people of the city of New York
 The citizens of New York should prepare themselves accordingly. Every effort will be made by the rnuni- cipal authorities, insofar as possible, 10 provide temporary travelling facilit- ies. and the police department will prevent any disorder.
 If the strike is d result of a con- splracy following suggestions made to

the men byofficials of the company and others in authority. District At torney Swann may be depended upon to deal vigorously with that phase or the situation.
 Close on the heels of these two an- nouncements came a third from the district attorney'sJ office to the effect that subpoenas had been issued for Frank Hedley. general manager of the Interborough and of the New York Railways Company, it's surface line subsidiary, as we'll as three officials of the New York Railways Employees Association, an organization similar to the Interborough Brotherhood. The Railways company is in the hands of Job F. Hedges, federal receiver
 Assistant District Attorney Banton, who issued the subpoenas. said his office wished to get more light on the demand of the conpany's employees for fifty per cent increase in wages and the simultaneous efforts of the company for eight cent fare.
 After a long conference with May or Hylan, a committee representing the Interborough Brotherhood decline ed to postpone the proposed strike .un- til next Tuesday to give the mayor an opportunity to confer with officials of the company and see what could be done in behalf of the workers. The committee also refused to call a meet ing of members of the brotherhood so Mir. Hylan could address them. The committeeman left the meeting in anger because of Mayor Hylan's question.

4e DEFENDANT BOUND OVER
 FOR BISBEE DEPORTATION

Douglas, Ariz:, Aug 15-Forty nine defendants in the Bisbee deportation cases whose preliminary hearings were completed last week after occupying the local justice court for more than month were today bound over to the superior court for trial on charge of Kidnapping, upon their own request. No objections were offered by the state.
 In a statement issued at the close of court the 49 defendants declared they had asked that their cases be passed to the superior court without argument for the reason that they felt that if one was guilty of any crime during the deportations, all were equally guilty Although they were confident that many of the cases should have been dismissed for lack of evidence, said the statement, the defendants felt that they had all done what they thought was right during the deportations. and that they wanted a jury to decide as to the guilt or in- nocence of each man.

SENATOR THOMAS DEPLORES
 CONTAGION OF STRIKES

Washington, Aug 15-Deploring the "contagion of strike disease" which he said had apparently spread throughout the world, Senator Thom- as, democrat, of Colorado, in the sen- ate late today suggested that the dis ease" be brought into congress, its members organize a union and refuse to legislate until conditions have been changed or at least until the members have been assured of reelection in 1920.
 Senator Thomas said present con- ditions were a melancholy commen- tary when it is considered that there is more money in circulation than ever before" and asserted that if labor con- ditions continue as they are now, suf- fering due to reduced production would be acute this winter Such con- ditions, he added, however, cannot continue and he said he would trust to the common sense of the people of this country to see that the laws were obeyed.
 While not contending that all labor difficulties now in progress through out the country were actuated by Bol- shevistic doctrines. he expressed the belief that some were.

HEARING OF ELECTRIC
 RAILWAYS COMMISSION

Washington, Aug Is. Etched against the dark background of the Massachusetts electric railways cri- sis a first hand report on Cleveland's S experience with it's now famous street car plan stood out vividly today be- fore the federal electric railways com mission.
 For two hours Chairman Frederick J. Macleod. Of the Massachusetts public service commission. spoke of the cau-es leading to. the abandon ment or lines Tn that state to a ten cent Hat rate car fare in Boston and elsewhere and to the calling of spe- cial session of legislature to deal with tine emergency. There was little hope he said. that even al the high rates imposed. the afflicted companies would be seif-suPporting and at least one line the Bay State apparently
 ilac rvstcr-1 the point of saturation'' where h-<eas fares could no longer help it. Public ownership, he said might be well forced upon the state 10 escape complete destruction of it's local transportation systems.
 Mir Macleod gave place to Fielder Sanders. city commissioners of C1eve- land for street railways and the pic lure he drew was startling by con- rrast- The Cleveland plan. he said. has worked out so successfully that re- gently fares went down 8 per cent. almost simultaneously with 25 per cent increase in wages to all employees of tine company operating the roads The plant. he said, was now rated as the finest surface system in the coun- try having been completely rehabili tated since the plan became effective. The city controls the railway and pays the company six per cent. on its investment
 Explaining what was happening in SIassa acEuSetts. Commissioner Mac Leod said it was obvious that fare rates must recede instead of advance if the net revenues of the affected companies were to go up. Companies that had received no increased rate he said. were in better situation.
 It may well be- he said. that the only solution is through public own ership- It is doubtful that under pre- sent economic conditions the street car service can be continued to be supported by private capital"

 We are going to force these hoard CTS and profiteers to disgorge." Judge Ames declared, whenever they are found to hold greater amounts than are necessary for the conduct of their business and the safeguarding of the food situatin during the winter"

NO JUSTIFICATION FOR
 HIGH PRICE FOR SUGAR

Hartford, Conn. Aug. 15.-Robert Scoville, gederal food administrator for Connecticut, had a long conference today with the United States district attorneys office. in which plans were discussed for a better enforcement of the federal statutes relating to hoard ing and profiteering. It was announced that the entire facilities of the de- partment of justice were available to investigate cases of this nature and that the department was ready to pro- ceed in any cases where informa tion was lodged with the United States dis Irict attorney
 MT Scoville is giving the local su- ga rsituation some attention and an nOunced that while there was un- doubtedly temporary shortage, there was no justification for some of the high prices at which sugar had re- gently been sold. A preliminary in vestigation seemed to indicate that there was very little if any hoarding of sugar by dealers.
