FLETCHER QUITS MEXICO
Efforts to Bring Carranza to Terms
Futile, Envoy Says.

Efforts to Bring Carranza to Terms
Futile, Envoy Says.
Washington, Jan. 29.-Henry P.
Fletcher has resigned as United States
ambassador to Mexico to take effect
the next few weeks.
Those who know the reason for Mr..
Fletcher's decision say he was con-
vinced a continuation of the efforts
he has made during the four years
in which he has held this important
post to bring the Carranza gOvernme t
into accord with the United States
government on the many irritating is
sues which have arisen, involving the
protection of American lives and pr, p
erty rights, would be futile.
Mr.. Fletcher terminates eighteen
years of service in the diplomatic
branch of the government. He was
appointed ambassador to Mexico in
February, 1915, but did not 90 to
Mexico City until the February Of the
following year, having come 20 the
United States from Chile, where he
was the American ambassador, for long
conferences.
The relations between the United
States and Mexico were quite critical
az the time Mr.. Fletcher reached Mex
leo City, owing to the border raids
and to German intrigue In the south
ern republic. Little more than two
months after his arrival he was hiss.
ed in the Mexican chamber of depu.
ties when he attended the opening s s.
sion.

CHARGE OPERATORS
MADE BIG PROFITS
Some Earned Over 1000 Per
Cent in 1917.

Washington, Jan. 29.-Miners' rep
resentatives completed their presenta-
ton of wage and coal mining cost
statistics to the presidents commits
sion to settle the coal strike
At the request of the operators the
chairman, Henry \. Robinson ad-
journed the hearing until Monday,
when the operators will present sta
tistical data.
Van H. Bitner, statisticlan for the
miners union, in his analysis of cost
Of living statistics fixed the advance
in them since 1913 at So per cent.
AS 70 the ability of the mine owners
to pay advances he cited their profits.
His figures showed that the Pittsburgh
Coal company made a net profit of ap-
proximately 100000 for The two-year
period of 1914-1915, while for the two
year period, including 1917-191S, the
net profit was more than $21,OO0O00
The profit of $14,O76,S52 in 1917, he
said, represented 206 per cent on the
capital stock and $500 on each en-
ploye.
Bitner pointed to the Lehigh Valley
Coal company as another corporation
whose net profits increased enormous
~ from 1914 to 1918. In 1914, he said,
they were $511, ,446 and in 1918, $3,SS6,-
1S9. In the two-year period 1914-1915,
he said, the Consolidation Coal COM
pany had net profits amounting to ap-
proximately $4,5OO,0OO; in 1917-191S
the net profits were approximately
$13, 100000.
Bittner cited statistics which he said
were obtained from the treasury de-
partment and financial reports show
ing that 335 mining companies IN 1917
made 15 per cent on their capital
stock 81 made 20 per cent; 295 made
25 per cent; 270 made 80 per cent !;
232 made 40 per cent, or more; 1877
made so per cent or more; 1O5 made
100 per cent of more, and eight COM
panies made over 1000 per cent.
Regardless of all increases, he said,
mine labor was receiving today fewer
cents out of every dollar paid to oper-
a.ors for coal than they got in 1913
and 1914.

OHIO RESCINDS &c
PASSENGER FARE LAW
Low Rate Would Force Roads
Into Bankruptcy, They Say.

Columbus, o., Jan. 29.-Ohio's two
cent passenger law, passed in 1906
after a bitter fight, was cast into the
discard by the lower house of the gen.
eral assembly when it passed the PEN
sion bill, giving the state public utili-
ties commission power to fix rates OF
fare for steam and interurban rail-
roads at a rate not exceeding three
cents a mile.
Not vote was cast against amend
ing the bill. 1t was declared that
virtually every electric railroad in
Ohio was "facing a scrap pile" unless
given the right to charge more than
two cents a mile.
Railroads now are charging three
cents a mile fare under wartime or
ders. When the lines are turned back
to the private owners March 1, under
the present Ohio law, they could not
charge more than two cents mile.
The senate is expected to pass the
Pearson bill.
