OF a suspension in protest against the

Maintenance of way employees,
clerks, signal men and other. classes
whose wages were slashed in recent or

DEFEAT BY FREE STATE ARMY
MEXICAN TROOPS
PURSE BANDITS
Government Officials Believe Attacks
Were Isolated Cases Of
Banditry.

Mexico City, June 2S.--tBy the A
sociated Press, Mexican government
officials believe that the kidnapping oi
A. Bruse Bielaski in the state of More
los and the capture of forty other
Americans near Tampico within few
hours of each other are isolated cases
Of banditry which will be adequately
attended to by the federal troops now
in pursuit.
Secretary Of War Serno last night
had not yet been officially advised Of
property near Tampico and the deten-
tion of the forty employees, but other
advices caused him to direct the fed
eral commander in that zone to start a
vigorous campaign against the rebels
in the entire region.
General Gorazave, commanding the
Tampico rebels, according to the war
office suddenly appeared in the Huas-
teca region last week. and his actiyi-
ties against the oil compahy's camp are
incident to his program Of outlawry.
Gorozave is said to have nearly three
hundred we'll armed men under his
command.
No news has reached here from Tam
pico concerning the capture, and local
of The Cortez interests
said they had no information other
than that contained in dispatches from
Washington. 1t is rumored here that
of the forty captured less than dozen
are Americans, the remainder being
British subjects.
According TO advices late last night
from Cuernavaca, negotiations still are
in progress between Mr.. Bielaski's
friends and his bandit captors, a brief
message from the former stating "ar
