Demands of the railroad labor unions. said the statement issued, "constitute : definite programme for government ownership," and "the overwhelming trend of senti.nent through the United States is opposed to government own ership." Such ownership, it was point ed out. would increase the public debt $20,000,000, "severely strain the credit of the nation and depress the value of the liberty and victory bonds held by millions of people. Government ownership, characterized as disastrous wherever tried, would re tard development of the railroads and throw the lines into politics, the state ment added.

The United States government then could select the best of the applicants and could assign them to sections of the nation where tneir services might be utilized. By this scheme, the mayor said, farmers of Europe would not be working in New York factories and farmers of the west would not be need ing men while New York would be facing a labor surplus. BERKELEY DOOMS "NUTS" KOUXDIP OF IVORY-HEADED SPECIES IS STARTED. Shooting Affray Conducted by Dis charged Assistant Impels Tak ing; of Mental Census. BERKELEY, Cal.. Aug. 10. (Special.) Following the shooting affray last Monday on the University of California campus, when Roger Sprague, a dis charged assistant, ran amuck with a revolver, shot Proressors Edmund O'Neil and J. H. Hilaebrand, and tried to murder Mrs. May Cheney, a quiet clean-up of "nuts" on the campus has been started. All those who are "queer' who smile when they should not, or who are morose when there is apparently no provocation, are being carefully listed and catalogued for elim ination. At least one man who holds a full professorship has already been listed. A dozen or more lesser lights have been "spotted" and any number of stu dents and assistants will be informed that their presence on the campus is no longer desired. The clean-up will be conducted en tirely along academic standards. Strict secrecy will be maintained as to the identity of the undesirables. There will be no sensational raids to mar the har mony of academic Berkeley. But the "nuts' must go. Just how the university authorities will proceed is a subject of conjecture. It is an easy matter to dismiss those not wanted, but to bar them from the campus is another matter. It is pointed out that Sprague had been discharged for six weeks before he attempted his wholesale killing. The Berkeley po lice have been called into consultation and ways and means are being devised to make the campus safe. STORM SETS 10 NEW FIRES Southwestern Idaho forest Blazes Are Caused by Lightning.

I could, not eat anything without suf fering intense pains afterwards, and at times 1 would bloat up so with gas and such pains and pressure around my heart that I would almost feint. I be came so nervous that I could hardly get any sleep or rest and got so run down and weak that I could scarcely keep up my work as a nurse. I, of course, used all kinds of medicines and did everything possible but could never get more than just & little temporary relief. "Finally a friend of my husband, who had been relieved of the same trouble by taking Tanlac, advised him to have me try it, and right from the first bottle I began to fel better. My appetite came back, my blood circula tion improved wonderfully, and my nerves began to quiet down. I can eat just anything I want now and never have the least pain or trouble after wards. I sleep soundly every night and I feel rested and refreshed on get ting up In the mornings. When I began taking Tanlac I was weighing only one hundred and thirty pounds and was still losing. But now I tip the scales at one hundred and fifty-two, making an actual gain of twenty-two pounds on four bottles of Tanlac. I just fee so strong and well now that it's s real pleasure for me to recommend the medicine that helped me so much Tanlac is a perfectly wonderful medi cine and I am glad to give credit where It belongs."

Powerful Movement for Intervention Feared by Carranza Tab lo Be Kept on It. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Aug. 10. (Spe cial.) President Carranza of Mexico has caused a decided sensation in local as well as eastern diplomatic circles by transferring to the New York consul-generalship, with enlarged powers and duties, Consul-Oeneral Ramon De Negri of this city. De Negri became persona non grata to Secretary of State Lansing several years ago while living in Washington. D. C, as the acting-ambassador of Mexico. This led to De Negri's being transferred elsewhere, much to the regret of both Carranza and General Obregon. Both of the latter look upon De Negri as one of Mexico's most promising dip lomats, and thev have always wanted him stationed in the national capital, or near there. His transfer to New York is looked upon as a partial reali zation of their hope ultimately to have him return to Washington as am bassador. De Negri had been neld in this city as consul-general for several years awaiting a good opportunity to station him in the east. The New York ap pointment was the first favorable chance to promote him again. De Negri is credited with first having informed Mexico City that Senator A. D. Fall of New Mexico was in some way corresponding with Villa. Both before and after coming to this city the diplomat also reported to Car ranza how influential fuel oil and other interests in the United States sought to stir up trouble in Mexico in the hope of compelling American inter vention. Week before last Senator Fall was forced to explain in the senate how hia name happened to be mentioned in con nection with a proposed personal meet ing with Villa. Powerful New York people are be lieved by De Negri to be working for American intervention and. it is said, he has been ordered to New York city to watch such developments, and also to keep tab on Senator Fall, who was yesterday appointed chairman of a committee by the senate to investigate attacks on Americans and their prop erties in the southern republic.
