Ny Acting Shows improvement

But my day was not do1e. Get

CUT In SALARIES
AFFECTS MARKETS
Industrial Conditions Assuming More
Distressing Aspects.

NEW YORK, March 9.-The stock
market experienced another period of
| irregular depression, much of the news
and attendant developments coupled
| with the absolute absence of public
interest contributing to that end.
Industrial conditions assumed more
disturbing aspects, the coming wage
! reduction by the western packers be-
| ing followed by announcement that
the Pennsylvania Railway intends to
cut salaries and wages ito accord with
| economic conditions"
After the close of the market it be-
came known through Chicago advices
that similar action would probably
be taken by all the leading transpor-
! tation companies.
The annual report of the American
Sugar Refining company, showing OPP
Grating profits of only $1,S00,000 for
1920, against more than 100000 900 in
the> previous year, doubtless accounted
for the recent steady decline of food
and kindred shares.
Latest conditions in the steel trade
were emphasized by the Iron Age,
which made especial reference to the
detached attitude of consumers and
further restriction of operations by
most of the largest producers.
Less attention was directed towards
foreign affairs, but the uncertain tone
of International remittances in which
some recovery was shown on cover
ing Of speculative commitments,
seemed to offer little hope of an early
readjustment of the unsettlement re-
sulting from the allied occupation of
Germany

upon the service of the marines, Boz
CERT writes:
If all divisions could continue to
be handled by marines in the same
date, it would be greatly to the credit
of the American guard" lit appears
that some technical objection has
arisen with respect to further employ
ment OF the marines in the work in
question:
Incidentally it is reported that dogs
such as have escaped the stew pot
have become in their famished condi-
ton as savage as wolves. This is
borne out by line in letter from
Lieutenant Bogert, which says:
WAS attacked by dogs at K'u Shut
P'u and had to shoot one" He also
states that their work is hampered by
people removing the stakes which
mark the right -of-way for use as fire
wood.
Bogert recommends that the present
force of marines be retained on the
construction work, both because of
the credit accruing to the legation
guard and because the Red Cross has
great need of them, since foreign vol
unteers are scarce.

MEXICANS PROTEST
AMERICAN WORKMEN

MEXICO CITY, Mar. .S.-An influx
Of American labor to Mexico, especial
ly to the oil regions, Is causing much
concern to government officials, who
are receiving complaints daily from
Mexican workmen's organizations that
the presence of foreigners is working
a hardship on native labor.
1t is asserted that unemployment in
the United States has caused thous-
ands of Mexicans to return to the re-
public, many of them in destitute cir
cumstances. Arriving there they find
large numbers Of Americans holding
jobs which, they declare; rightfully
belong to them.
Moreover, in the oil fields American
labor has practically supplanted ma
tive workmen and the charge has been
made publicly by labor representatives
that the Americans in these regions are
armed and are on war basis" for the
ostensible purpose OF protecting for
eign holdings.
A fantastic charge made in this con-
nection is that these workmen are in
reality United States soldiers who
