Torreon, Coahuila, Mexico, August
~. by Mail)-The rundown. oonti-
tton of Mexico's railroads probably is
better illustrated in Torreon than in
any other city of the Republic. y In.
the heart of wealthy agricultural
and mining district, supporting
smelters and various other Industries,
Torreon rightly earned. it's position as
one or the country's leading railroad
centers. 20 p =
But with the present deprecated
condition of the Mexican railroads,
Iorreon Is not receiving just divi-
Edends from the net work of rail lines
that pass thru the city, 80.
The conductor operating from Mex
leo City to Torreon threw light on
the situation as his train neared this
city five hours late.

That might be sufficient, if there
We're any local trains. But there are
not. And there are scarcely any
freight trains, either. AS result,
everything possible is shipped by ex-
press and this train, the only passen-
ger train on the line, must stop at
every station to load and unload mer-
chandise."
There are no local trains, because
there as not sufficient cars nor en-
gines. The same explanation goes
for the scarcity of freights. Ere
quently three or four freight care are
nooked on to passenger train, caus-
ing heavy delay to passengers who
may have some concern as to when
they reach their destination.

stock continues, so long must ship

Torreon, with it's many agricultural
and manufactured products, is one
OF the heaviest sufferers from this
shortage OF cars. Three American
smelterers located in this district, are
most fortunate. They own their own
cars.

EXCITING TIMES MAKING
TARTAN PICTURE

II you think the making of an
animal picture is not difficult listen
to the wall of Director Harry Re-
vier who had charge Of the making
of 1.-THE Revenge of Tarzan" which
comes to the Grand theatre for two
days, commencing Saturday.
Mr.. Revier, in addition to handling
more than six hundred human artists
was blessed with sixty-three beasts
r Nine lions, five leopards, fifteen
apes, six tigers, two champanzees
two elephants and twenty-four mon
keys constitute the animalistic con-
tribution to 1.-The Revenge of Tar
zan" and in some of the scenes, ten
or more animals of varied specie were
used and it was in these episodes
that Director Revier's work was cut
out for him. =:
.-a@ In a scene in~>which Gene Polar
as TarZan drops from among group
of apes, nesting in the trees, to the
ground and has his 1are handed fight
against the lion,v i required hours
upon houre to induce the apes to re-
main quiet in the presence Of the
jungle king. 49,.
Again when Tarzan rides off on the
head of his elephant, the huge beast,
seeming the lion, baked and tore
off thru the underbrush and several
days were spent trying to accustom
the elephant to the lion.
At no time would the monkeys
properly face the camera If any lions
tigers or man-eaters were within
smelling distance and continual
combat between the apes Of different
species so disturbed the director and
players that a number of highly in
teresting scenes were deleted because
of the apes actions.
Elephants became temperamntal,
lions aggravated, apes and monkeys
over-playful and human artists scar
ed to death, all of which contributed
to the directors worries, hut a sen
sational film resulted and the sixty
thousand feet of negative exposed
and sven thousand feet Of entertain
ment achieved therefrom, were well
worth the time and danger.

prices opened the trading in cotton to-
day and In the first half hour OF bust
ness the active months lost six to "a
points compared with yesterdays close
March falling to 3727c and October to
29.55c. An easier feeling in the cotton
goods market, unsatisfactory cables and
better weather in the belt encouraged
selling, but the market was steadied
by the settlement of the dock strike
in this port and the better railroad
labor outlook.
After the early offerings were alb
sorbed the market felt better demand
and prices recovered until late in the
morning the trading months were two
points over to five points under the
close of yesterday, Some of the buy
ing was due to messages from Texas
stating that the soil was so soggy in
some counties that farm work was
greatly delayed.
Reports that buyers for New England
mills were in the local spot market
encouraged further demand for con-
tracts and at l O'Clock prices were at
net advances of to II points.
