MEXICO WANTS RELIEF FROM
 CAR TROUBLE

SAN FRANCISCO, May "A (by Asso- ciated Press) Abolition of the pres ent system whereby Americans ship ping freight in through cars to Mex ican points are required to put up bond for the safe return of the cars and also pay 60 cents day for the first 30 days the cars are in Mexico is being sought by the National Rail ways of Mexico, according to R. M. Campos, it's western agent.
 The National Railways proposes to facilitate commerce with Mexico by absorbing the perdiem charge itself and having the Mexican government put up tn bond for the safe return of the cars, Campos said. P. Fontes, general director of the lines, and L. Valdes, the general freight and pas senger traffic manager, are in the United States now, he stated, attempt ing to adjust the matter with tho var ious railroad companies.
 The plan they are seeking to have adopted was in force in regard to in- terchange of Mexican and American cars before the revolutions began in Mexico, according to Campos, and the Mexican railways still offer this con- venience to Mexican business men shipping into the United States.

The boy reached down and was able
to grasp the little girl by the hair.
In this way he was able to lift her

Patrolman William Ward appeared
and carried the child to her home. She
is Mary Ahouse, seven years old, of

On arrival at the house the chil's
soiled clothes caught her mothers eyes.
Mrs. Ahouse was at first disposed to
be wrathful, thinking the little girl
was at fault, but when she heard what
had happened she almost collapsed.
1t was said today that the lid of
the inlet must have been loose. When
the child stepped upon it, the lid turned
and sent her down into the water, Just

RELIEF IN GLOUCESTER

There was general relief among of =
fcials of Gloucester, n. j., when word
was received of the arrest in Chicago
Of Chadomir Won Foorister real estate
promoter of alleged vivid dreams and
plans. He was held in bail there on the
charge of conspiracy.
Through the sale of what are said to
have been imaginary building lots in
Gloucester and other places, Won
Toorister, with others, it is alleged,
ewindled several hundred persons in all
parts of the country.
According to the police the alleged
promoter formed a concern known as the
Chadomir Won Foorister L \. Reich
Real Estate Corporation. The company
It is said, had branch Offices in several
cities and claimed to own 1000 lots at
Gloucester. It was claimed that these
lots were well severed and lighted. Pur-
chasers had the privilege of paying spot
cash or buying the land on the install
ment plan.
Won Foorister, it is said, organized
two bonding companies, one called the
Land Refunding Co, having an alleged
capitalization Of 5000, 600 900 and the
other named the United States Land
Value Refunding Co.
Investigation, the police say, showed
that neither of the two concerns men
toned had any financial backing.
Won Foorister, it is said, claimed that
the building lots which his concern own
ed were in that part of Gloucester
known as Grace lola Park.
Ofhcials of Gloucester said today
there is no such place as the park named
either in Gloucester or anywhere near
it. Among others who received inquiries
from purchasers about the company s
building lots was Mayor Anderson, of
Gloucester. He recently got letter from
q man in New York who said he had
paid S100 for one of the lots.
