CAPITAL OF MEXICO IS AGAIN CUT OFT

Re-entrance of Zapata Forces Followed By Suspension of Communication With Outside.

BULLETIN.

WASHINGTON, July 21—Vem Cruz advices to the state department, dated y«*t«rday, say the evacuation of Mexico City by General Gonzales and its re-occupation by Zapata forces has been confirmed in Carranza quarters and that there is no communication with the capital.

WASHINGTON, July 21—Further developments In the rapidly changing events at Mexico City were anxiously awaited by officials here today.

The Mexican capital is again oc oupied by Zapata forces, the city apparently is once more isolated from telegraphic communication with the outside world and railroad communication with Vera Cruz is suspended. These are the latest developments in Mexico City as disclosed in official reports to the state department.

Relief measures for the hungry civilian population of the Mexican capital have been halted in conse quence of the suspension of railroad communication and the situation is reported as desperate. Officials fear that great suffering among the peoput will result.

The re-occupation of the capital Sunday by Zapata's army after evacuation by the Carranza forces under Gen. Gonzales took officials here by surprise. The Zapata forces were driven frbm there eleven days ago by Gonzales, who is speeding northward to meet the advancing Villa troops. The supposition here had been that the Zapata forces were operating along the railroad to Vera Cruz In an attempt to effect a junction with the advancing Villa column.

News of a battle near Pachuca, already reached by Villa troops, is momentarily expected.

FOOD PROBLEM SERIOUS.

U. S. Consul Says Mexico Will Soon Be Hungriest Spot on Earth. WASHINGTON, July 21.—Prediction that unless peace soon is restored in Mexico and fall crops are planted conditions in the northern part of the southern republic, due to scarcity of food, will be far more serious within three months than ever before Is made by American Consul General Hanna at Monterey, Mexico, in a letter to the American Red Cross made public today. Mr. Hanna, who is in charge of the Red Cross relief station at Monterey, describes the food situation In that part of Mexico.-

Thousands of persons have been saved from actual starvation by the food supplies furnished by the Red pross, according to Consul General Hanna. Limited supplies are now being furnished to at least 20,000 people. "It."4»w,probable," says Mr. Hanna, "that the corn crops here In Mexico, now matqrlng, will relieve the hunger situation for, a short period provided railroad communication with, the agricultural district is kept open^ enabling the farmers to send their food uffs to market. Of course, everything ipends on the railroads keeping open. But I don't believe that the present limited crops will last longer than two months. Then if we do not have fall crops, this will be the hungriest spot on earth."

TANLAC, THE "MASTER MEDICINE," GIVES AID

Samuel Williams Declares His Nerves Now Are Steady and His Appetite Is

Good.

One of the most earnest of the hundreds of persons in Terre Haute and vicinity who are praising Tanlac, the "Master Medicine," for the good it has dene them, Is Samuel Williams, a car repairer, of 117 Austin street, Paris, 111., who said recently: "I can say With all sincerity that Tanlac has helped me wonderfully and that I consider it the greatest medicine I ever tried. I had indigestion, a nervous complaint and was all run down for several months. I tried many medicines in a vain endeavor to find re lief. "Gas would form in my stomach af ter eating, causing great pain. I was subject to Bpells of dizziness and headaches. I had very little appetite. At times I thought my nerves would run away with me. I felt tired and languid nearly all the time. "Since taking Tanlac I feel much better In every respect. The gas on the stomach has disappeared. I have a good appetite and my food agrees with me. The headaches and dizzy spells trouble me no more. My nerves aro In good condition, and I feel am bitious and ready for my day's work ev*ry morning." "Tanlac Is now being taken with the most beneficial results by thousands of persons suffering with stomach, liver and kidney trouble, rheumatism, nerv ous debility, insomnia, defective circulation and catarrh. It is sold In Terre Haute at Runtin's Drug Store by the personal direction of W. R. Cooper, the Tanlac Map, who Is explaining the medicine to the public.

sented by their legal counsel. This Is a test case and it is to the interest of every jitney bus owner in the state to support the Terre Haute jitney men.

May Postpone Case.

"It Is possible that the commission will hear the traction company's arguments In the case and continue the hearing of the jitney bus men until some future time. This will be the aim of the counsel appearing in behalf of the latter at the coming hearifag.' "The fli-st Ciuestlon to be decided by the commission Is a legal one, whether It has the power to regulate the jitneys as it has with the public utilities. In case the commission decides that it has the power to regulate them the case will devolve Into a discussion of the evidence which can be produoed by both sides relevant to the respective merits of the case. We will at first try to establish the fact that the commission has not the right to regulate the jitneys."

The jitney men of the city, especially those who have been directing the fight through its. primary stages, J. C. Holden, Phil K. Reinbold, John Roberts, John Rogers, Earl Haxknesa, Jess Jackson and Harry Sanders, all feel that the traction company has exceeded the bounds of reason in requesting the commission to rule in a case which they feel sure the commission has no right to rule in.

In answer to the statements made by John T. Beasley, representative of the traction company, M!r. Reinbold said:

Answers Beasley.

"Qyoting Mr. Beasley In one of his recent statements 'we (the traction company) will not discuss the issue of the case and will allow the Jitney bus men to do all the mud slinging.' Directly Mr. Beasley charges that the Jitney bus men have been slinging mud In this case and If that be true let all the people in the state become mud slingers too, with the exception of the respeotable representatives of the corporative interests. "When men are fighting for tha rights of the people, according to Mr Beasley, they are slinging mud. "Mr. Beasley says that the case will be argued on the strict legal merits o£ the case in so far as the traction company can. In that sentence he lets the cat xut of the bag. In other words they will argue legally in so far as they can and then they will do the very thing that has been charged to them, they will attempt to get the commission to usurp legislative functions. They axe insulting' the intelligence of the commission when they apply to it In this case. If the commission will do its proper and legal duty It will immediately wash Its hands of the whole affair."

A committee of representatives of the Jitney bus union in this city will be present at the hearing, consisting of Mr. Holden, Mr. Rogers, Mr. Harkness, Mr. Jackson and Mr. Saunders. The committee reports that the assessment which was levied at a recent meeting on each Jitney owner has been practically all collected and that It will be sufficient to cover the initial steps in the coming fight.

..New Albany Jitney Men to Aid. NEW ALBANY, Ind., July 21.—Ne.v Albany jitney bus owners will hold a meeting this afternoon to plan for aiding in the fight of the other jitney operators throughout the state against the efforts of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern Traction company and others to have the public service commission declare the busses "common carriers." An attorney will be selected to appear Thursday at the hearing before the commission. The local traction company will be represented at th* hearing. -•in a«»

count of his movements on the night of the murder. Martin T. Manton, of Becker's counsel, has announced that proceedings will be started In a day or two In application for a new trial for Becker on the grounds of newly discovered evidence. The nature of the evidence was not disclosed. It was reported that friends of Sullivan have offered to make affidavits substantiating in part the Btory which Becker told.

Becker's statement, in his own handwriting, is a phronological history of what he says, were his dealings with Rosenthal and the others mentioned in the murder case.

Becker claims that Sullivan had intervened with the police in an effort to get permission for Rosenthal to run his gambling house, saying he was financially interested with Rosenthal,

Rosenthal's Place Raided. Later Rosenthal's place was raided, and the latter being angry, began publishing charges against Becker. Sullivan, according to the statement, called the police lieutenant in and said Rosenthal must be induced to leave town because if any inquiry were started it might reach into election matters, a situation he wished to avoid. This was not long before the assassination of Rosenthal. Becker says It is common report that a sum of money was raised presumaDly by Rose and the gamblers to get Rosenthal away. Rosenthal refused the sum offered but consented to go for a larger sum. It is said it wds for this larger sum that he was waiting at the Hotel Metropole when he was shot. Becker adds that if it could be shown that Rose had been entrusted with a sum of money to be given Rosenthal it would shed a flood of light on the whole transaction and would explain the •ource of $1,000 which Rose admittedly had paid to the yunmen.

HIMSELF AT 40!

Death by slow poison is killing many a man, young in years, who has made the fatal mistake of failing to understand the warnings of kidney trouble.

When your kidneys begin to lag in throwing off natural poisons that accumulate in your body, the first warnings come in little twinges, or stiffness across your back and hips. Urination may be too frequent you may feel "tired" in the morning when you should feel your best.

The best known remedy for these troubles is GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules. This remedy has stood the test for more than 200 years since It was first produced in the ancient laboratories in Haarlem, Holland. It acts directly on the kidneys and bladder and gives relief at once, or your money will be refunded. GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules are Imported direct from an an an be ha a an store.
