REACH A CLIMAX III THE QUESTION Mexican Railroad Situation Is Now Believed to Be Very Serious.

RELATIONS ARE STRAINED

HARD FEELING BETWEEN THE EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYED WILL MEASURE STRENGTH IN A BIG STRIKE.

KITCHENER WON HIS PEERAGE BY COURAGE

San Antonio, Texas. Jan. 22. There is no longer any doubt that within a few weeks the National lines of Mexico and their American and foreign employes will measure their respective strength in a general strike or lock-out.

For some time past relations between employer and employe have been very strained and had it not been that both Bides had been anxious to fence for time, things would have been brought to an issue before this. The management of the road entirely under the influence of the Mexican government which owns about 50 per cent of its stock, has been trying to settle the difficulties with the Amreican and foreign engineers, foremen, conductors and dispatchers, by gradually eliminating them, and the latter have kept up a desultory warfare in one way or another. Dates Back Some Time. The present situation may be said to have had its inception about five years ago in the strike of the locomotive firemen of what was then the Mexican Central and in the strike of the machinists in the Laredo shops occurring a little later. The first move on the part of the Central was the transfer of the machine shops from Laredo in Texas to Nuevo Laredo on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande and other points 1n the interior, such as Monterey and San Luis Potsoi. For a while it was thought that the bitter antagonism between employer and employe would make room for better feelings, but grievances on all sides kept adding to the flame, and last summer the government, after having gained control over the railroads that had been merged into the national lines, decided to displace as many foreign and American employes as possible. The office force composed entirely of Americans, was the first to go; brakemen and yard employes went next. Their places were filled with Mexicans. It was not possible, however, to follow a like method in the case of engineeds, conductors and dispatchers. However, these, too, had been slated for removal and to get Mexicans with the necessary training the National Lines establishel a number of railroad schools. The graduates from these instituoins have already taken the places of many Americans and contrary to popular belief are proving excellent railroad men. Engineers Went Out. Some time ago about 100 engineers and others resigned their positions apparently for the purpose of putting the system in a bad fix. The plan does not seem to have worked as anticipated and no disturbance in the regular traffic of the roads resulted. For till that there are still enough American and foreign employes connected w ith the system to tie it up completely should they decide to go on a strike. That this will be resorted to by the engineers, dispatchers and conductors in an effort to fix their status can no longer be doubted. Their claim is that the National Lines have not acted with fairness in a good many instances. A short time ago a rule was adopted making it obligatory that all promotion examinations of firement would have to be passed not in English as heretofore, but in Spanish, something very few would be able to do. Of 37o who presented themselves for the examination, only five to ten passed. This arrangement, of course, will mean that the American firemen will either have to learn Spanish or remain a fireman while, a Mexican becomes his engineer. The management of the National Lines argues that a man not able to speak the language of the country after many years' residence in it, Iocs not deserve what amounts practically public employment by having shown the absolute lack of interest his ignorance of the language implies. A protest from the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers has been answered

MY DOCTOR MIGHTY FINE Mrs. Rattle Cain or Carrsville Thinks all the More or Her Doctor Since He Advised Her to Take Cardul

Lord Kitchener, one of England's peers, who won his title by leading the British army to victory. Owing to the fact that many of the members of the present House of Lords have been cre

ated peers, for some signal service that they have rendered to their country or

to humanity, a large number can only trace their ancestry back a generation

or so before finding parents of humble parentage. For this reason also, there are a number of Roman Catholics and

Jews as well as other religious sects in

the peerage, although the majority is

overwhelmingly Anglican.

by the management to the effect that a

Mexican wishing to pass an examination for a position on any railroad in

the United States would have to know

English.

However, the American railroad employees are not seeing the matter in that light and a conference now going

on between their leaders and the National Lines management at Mexico City may result in either a modification of this rule or a general strike over the entire system. In view of the fact that on the whole the conduct of the American and foreign railroad men in Mexico has in the past not been marked with too conciliatory a spirit the chances for a peaceful settlement of the situation are not very bright. It is reported that the National is prepared for this and that its traffic will be diverted to the ports on the Gulf of Mexico in case of trouble. Exports and imports would thus be taken care of and local traffic would be handled by the Mexican employees.

Falling Hair Marty People Have a Simple Way of

Stopping It. i It was Dr. Sangerbond, of Paris, who

first discovered that dandruff and falling hair were caused by a microbe.

And now that Parisian Sage, the remedy that kills the dandruff germ is sold in every town in America, the clean people of this country have

awakened to the fact that dandruff is

unnecessary; that falling hair and itching scalp can be quickly stopied, and that people who use Parisian Sage will never grow bald. To every reader of the Palladium and Sun Telegram, who wishes to eradicate disgusting dandruff, stop falling hair and have an immaculately clean scalp, free from itchiness, we make this offer: We will return jaur money, without red tape, if Parisian Sage does not banish dandruff, stop falling hair and itching scalp in two weeks. Parilsian Sage is sold by druggists everywhere, for 50 cents a large bottle. It is an ideal, daintily perfumed hair dressing free from grease and stickiness, and will cause hair to grow lustrous and luxuriant. Sold and guaranteed by L. H. Fihe. Mail orders filled, charges prepaid, by Giroux Mfg. Co., Buffalo, N. Y. Mrs. Farncis Kogel. 41 V. Jessamine St., St. Paul Minn., on Nov. 1, l'.KH), wrote: '"I have used several hair tonics but there is none that can compare with Parisian Sage. It cured my falling hair and dandruff, and it does not only cure those troubles, but is the best hair grower in the world."

Carrsville, Ky. "My doctor," writes Mrs. Hattie Cain, "who advised me to take Cardui, for my troubles, is a mTghty fine doctor, and i say God bless Cardui and the people who make it. "Before I took Cardui, I suffered with female troubles for sixteen years. I would have to send for a doctor every three month, andohi how dreadfutlyl suffered! "I would cramp and have convulsions and it looked like I would die. At last I took Cardui and oh! what a surprise!

HAS MANY REASONS

Why She Desires to Secure a Divorce From Clayton Hunt.

MARRIED FOR 27 YEARS

Because he is alleged to have been

cruel and inhuman iu his treatment;

profane and vulgar in his talk; quarrelsome and abusive; an improvident provider; and last, but not least, because he is alleged to have often remarked that he did not love her any longer and wished to get rid of her, Mrs. Iowa Hunt has brought suit for divorce in the circuit court against Clayton Hunt, a well known real estate dealer. Mrs. Hunt further sets forth in her complaint which was filed yesterday afternoon, that many of 'her husband's disagreeable and hateful actions were more than unbearable because they often took place before their grown children. Mr. and Mrs. Hunt were married March 18, 1882 and lived together for more than twenty-seven years, the separation taking place last November. Mr. Hunt is well known in this city. He is in, comfortable circumstances, so it is said, but no paragraph in which the plaintiff asks alimony has been filed in the case as yet.

A WATER AGREEMENT

For one dollar and other considerations Clark Bros., of Hagerstowa, have granted the privilege to the Tide Water Pipe company to take water from their reservoir for any purpose

which the pipe company may desire. The pipe company in return promises to bear half the expense of repairs to the dam and to return all water to the reservoir. Its use by the pipe company will not make it impure. The agreement which was entered into some time ago was filed with the county recorder yesterday afternoon.

(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Jan. 22. It developed at the meeting of the executive committee of the Indiana Democratic Editorial association yesterday at the Denison hotel, for the purpose of making plans for the annual midw:nter meeting of the association that there is a wide difference of opinion among the democratic editors as to the attitude of the democratic editors toward the liqour question in the next campaign. Some of the editors, and, in fact, the most of them, it develops, are in line with Governor Marshall, and believe that the liquor proposition should be left entirely with the legislators and no doubt when the state platform Is drafted the governor will find that he has earnest support from a large number of the Democratic newspaper men. But on the other hand there are some of the editors who believe In township and ward county option and are against the county option law.
