 Reports from nearly a score of cit ies where the insurgents struck. un- ion officers said. indicated that about 15,000 men had been affected direct ly or indirectly, including 500 in Chi cago. where the trouble started sew eral days ago.
 Union leaders today failed in their efforts to win over any considerable number of the men. but tonight said various groups had returned to work and that they saw signs of weaken ing among the men. who they said. would be brought back to work in few days for lack of funds. No Meat Shortage John Grunau. leader of the rebel yardmen's association. avowed that
 the walkout was growing hourly and that the men would not return 10 the fold of the parent union.

ment, 'the immediate. result is that the responsibility for her action can not be shared by the allies as a whole, and certainly there is no intention on the part of the British government to allow it's soldiers to act as police between hostile German factions and incur all the odium of such a position, to say nothing of it's risk"
 The statement concludes:
 Britain Stays Out
 'If, and when, Frances suspicious Of Germany's ulterior motives and deliberate Haunting of the terms of the peace treaty became accomplish ed facts, the allies would doubtless be prepared to act instantly and vigor- ousiy in concert to vindicate the posi- tion and respect for the provisions of the treaty. But for the time being, it may be taken that no British soldier will participate in the occupation Of German cities in the neutral zone
 Situation Delicate
 The London Times says that crisis has arisen in AngloFrenCh relations and that, contrary to assurances that the differences of opinion between the allies regarding the violation of the neutral zone by German troops were about to be composed by a friendly understanding, it appears that the British government yesterday took steps to emphasize it's disagreement with the policy of France.

 The Times adds that in diplomatic circles the view is expressed that the action of France is wrong in form, but right in substance. It is also re garded as d mistake on the part of the French goevrnment not 10 have employed white troops exclusively in the occupation of German cities.

HUERTA PLANS
 TO TAKE OVER
 MEXICAN ROAD
American Owners Virtually Told to Concede Demands
 Of Strikers

MORALES, Meico, April 8.--The set clement of the trainmens strike, which since Saturday has tied up traffic on the Sonora district of the Southern Pacific of Mexico is in the hands of President Epes Randolph of that road, said Governor Adolfo De La Huerta to- day.
 Governor De La Huerta, who is here from Hermosillo in an effort to settle the strike, declared emphatically there would be no revolution in Sonora. He explained the various rumors of revo' lutions were born of political misun- derstandings which would be corrected within 24 hours. He also announced that unless the strike is settled today the government of Sonora would take over the railroad and op~.ate 1t.
 In the event of government control
 the governor said, trains will not be operated by soldiers, but by the strik ing trainmen themselves.
 The strikers, he said, are willing, al the governors orders, to permit and
 assist in the resumption of traffic on the Southern Pacific of Mexico. If i, is necessary to take over the road, the governor said, the men who run the trains and perform other services incl dent to their operation, will De paid the scale Of wages they demand and will be only required to work reason able hours.
 The real issue of the strike, the gov ernor said, is recognition of the .rslIn mems union and placing employees oi the Southern Pacific of Mexico on a wage ana hour equality with the em
 ployes of other roads in Mexico. Governor De La Huerta decalred
 that water famine threatens prac tically every point along the railroad in Sonora.

Denver Scene of a Legal Battle That May Effect
 Entire Nation

PUEBLO, Colo, April s. While arguments of attorneys representing IA Denver retail clothing and shoe dealers were being presented before Judge Robert E.. Lewis in the United States district court in session here today, on the petition asking the court to grant an injunction to pre- vent the United States district attor- ney presenting to the federal grand jury certain evidence he claims to have regarding their alleged profiteer- ing. petition was being filed in the office of the clerk of the court by three wholesale coal dealers of Colo rado, making a similar plea and ask ing that the attorney be restrained from presenting evidence he claims to have regarding their alleged profi' teering.
 The petition was filed by Attorney J. c. Northcutt, of Denver. represent ing the Temple Fuel company, the Rocky Mountain Fuel company, and the Huerfano Fuel company.
 The clauses of the petition are all most identical with those of the peti- tion filed by the Denver merchants. When the court recessed at 5:30 o'clock this afternoon, Harry B. Ted TOW, United States district attorney was presenting to Judge Robert E. Lewis his side of the case.
 Tests Validity of Act
 The case opened at 9:30 o'clock this morning. .. c. Dorsey, one of the at torneys for the Denver dealers opened by reading to the court a copy of the complaint against the district at torney endeavoring to prosecute the defendants under the provisions or the Lever Act. The argument was based largely upon the proposition of whether or not the war is over, and whether or not, if the war is over, the Lever Act is still in effect. Tho constitutionality of the Lever Act was also questioned and third argument was the wording of the provisions or the act which attorneys for the Den yer merchants declare is not definite enough to permit prosecutions of the Denver merchants under the Lever Act

 The discussion over the | W. W. evidence, which has arisen many times since the Wootton case was started more than two months ago. came up again this morning when the defense sought 10 introduce a photo static copy of letter seized in a raid on I. w. w. headquarters by federal officials for use as evidence during the trial of William n. Haywood and other | W. w officials in Chicago two years ago. The letter purported to have been written by Pete Ker- kenen, an I. W. W. delegate and or ganizer in Butte al the time of the strike there. contains statements. ac- cording to the defense. that prove that he Butte strike was called as a blow at war and conscription by tying up industries.
 Moro than week ago the defense introduced letter written by X s. Embree. one of the I. w W. leaders of the strike at Bisbee. that preceded the deportation, in which Embree made the statement that the Bisbee strike was called more out of sym pathy with the Butte branch of the I. w. W. than for higher wages or bet ter working conditions.
 In order to show just what the reasons for tho strike at Butte were. the defense contended this morning. it would be necessary 10 introduce the letter. T'rauk g. Curley. sssistsni chief counsel for the defense. de olared that the letter and other l. w.

 Hope of Passage

WASHINGTON, April S.-The peace resolution had passed the halfway mark on it's way through the house when echoes of the storm of oratory and debate it provoked died away to night. For six hours it was the center of discussion on the floor, yet no one questioned that it would bG adopted The final vote will come late tomor- row.
 There was vote today on adoption of the special rule limiting debate and preventing amendment of the resolu- ton as drawn by the committee on foreign affairs The rule was carried, 215 to 155, seven Democrats joining the Republicans ir it's support and one Rrepublican opposing it. This was talk en to indicate action on the resolu- tion itself, but Republican leaders said more Democrats would join them on the final vote.
 One ot the Democrats, Represents tive Huddleston of Alabama, who voted against the rule, announced that he would support the resolution.
 Charges of partisanship ran through Democratic comment on the resolu- Ition.
 The November elaftions figure a.. most as prominently in the debate as did the international situation, war time legislation or even the president share in the fight.
 Charge Partinsanship.
 It was echoed from the Democratic side moment later when, to support charges of partisan purpose, Represen, tative Montague, asked Chairman Campbell of the rules committee why peace with Austro-Hungary also had not been proposed.
 On the technical side of the discus sion, the Democrats repeatedly cnai- lenged the constitutional right of con- gresS to pass such legislation, insist ing it was a contemptit le invasion of the treaty making powers conferred on the executive branch and the sen ate. Historical and legal precedents were marshalled' to support this view.

Woot. ton. first of 209 defendants in the kidnapping cases filed as the result of the Bisbee deportation.
 After listening all day to arguments and the reading of legal authorities which both sides contended were ia vorable, Judge Sam l.. Pattee. late this afternoon, took under consider. ation until ten o'clock tomorrow morn ing the question of allowing or re fusing the introduction by the de- fense of letters and documents in tended to show that the strike at Bis bee in June. 1917, was called in sym pathy with the I. w. w. strike at Butte. The Butte strike. the defense contends. was deliberately called by the l. w. w because federal officials at Butte interfered with an anti-con- scription parade staged by the I. w. w. on June 5 1917.
