All tlio property of Tmls Terrazas
Sr., Knriquo Creel and Juan Creel,
including banks, mines, vast areas of
land, thousands of head of cattle,
homes and personal effects Tuesday
were ordered confiscated to the rebels
in an official decree Issued by Gen.
Francisco Villa, tho victorious rebel
commander.
Mr. Terrazaa, now a refugee In the
United States, is one of tho richest
men in Mexico. His holdings of about
two-thirds of the State of Chihuahua
are said to place him among the most
extensive land holders of the world.
Tho combined estato of Terrazas and
the Creel brothers, his nephews, is
valued at. many millions of dollars.

Gen. Villa's decree, Issued at Chihuahua
city, was sent to Juarez and
ofllclally given out. It was intended
as a notice that should the revolution
succeed neither the Tcrrazas nor tho
Clreol families will he allowed any indemnity
for their losses.
Tho decree accuses tho Creel and
tho Terrazas families of "withholding
taxation and of fomenting the
treachery of Orozco and lluerta," and
states that the property shall he
given to tho widows and orphans
caused by bloodshed among tho Mexicans.
All contracts made with the
Creels and Terrazas since February
18,1913, are declared void. Luis Terrazas
Jr., eldest son of the land owner,
is held a prisoner at Chihuahua,

their use as much of the portable

Efforts Tuesday were made by
rebel leaders working directly
with Con. Villa to effort some sort of
a settlement in regard to the property
of tho expelled Spaniards. It
was said that a proposal was made
to Invoice all tho property in the
Spanish stores and shops and to allow
the claims to rest against the
refbel government. Gen. Villa replied
lio was willing to pay for the property
in so-called Constitutionalist money,
wjiich tho Spaniards declared to be
worthless.
two hundred more refugees, including
Americans and Spaniards,
reached El Paso from Chihuahua.
Among tho arrivals was Mrs. Marion
Letch or, wife of the United States
consul at Chihuahua. Mrs. Letcher
said if the consul had been prevented
by Villa from sending cipher messages
to Washington, as had been reported
by refugees, she had not heard
of it.
At tho same time it was announced
at Mexico City that from now until
April 2 President lluerta will he
obligated to conduct the government
\ylthout congress, as that specially
created organization was formally adjourned
Monday. Its most important
acts during tho session wero the ratification
of the president's assumption
of power oyer tho various departments
of tho government after dissolving
tlio preceding congress, and
regranting to tho president Ids same
power, which gives Con. Huerta until

Altogether tho now congress was
ujiobstrusivo, Interfering not at all
With the executive's Ideas of government.
Ita most notable act, aside
from those directly connected with
the executive plans, was the ratification
of a concession to a Belgian syndicate
to construct 5,000 miles ol
narrow-guage railway.
A dispatch from Juarez says while
rebel headquarters in Juarez Monday
sent urgent messages to Con. Franclsco
Villa, rebel commander at Chihuahua,
telling him he was incurring
the displeasure of foreign countries
in his actions towards Spaniards and

OXCK I'SIOIjICSS EIFFEL TOW Kit IS

Several Years Af(o About to be Torn
Down ElIYcl Tower lias Now a
Splendid I'laiit.
Tho famous Eiffel Tower, of Paris,
tho highest stool structure of its kind
in the world, was about to bo torn
| down several years ago on account of
its uselessness. To-day it is regarded
as one of France's most valuable
possessions. The French capital, bccaue
of the Eiffel Tower, has become
tho wireless center of tho world.
Underneath the Champ do Mars, in
which the tower stands, a vast subterranean
wireless plant has been
constructed. Its presence 's scarcely
suspected by the passer-by, for its
only entrance is little more than a
trapdoor in the ground, partly concealed
by a clump of trees. But
should he attempt to approach too
near the little iron staircase loading
underground, ho will find his way
barred by soldiers.
Relow ground, amid a maze of
passages, gigantic machines and a
continual crackling and flashing of
the wireless, a corps of military engineers
and electrical experts are working
day and night to perfect instruments
on the accuracy of whose messages
in wartime may depend
France's victory or defeat, and on
which also will depend the adequate
co-operation of the allied army of
Russia. It was in his laboratory
there that Prof. TTenry Abraham, of
the Sarbonne, talked to-day of what !
his work as a member of the French
Wireless Mission sent by the government
to Washington, will be. Professor
Abraham will not join his colleagues
until late in October.
"During our work at Arlington last
spring," said he, "we succeeded in
co-operation with our American associates
in establishing the relative
time of Washington and Paris within
the tenth of a second. Since then we
have been able to improve greatly the i
receiving and recording of wireless
messages. We expct now to est ahlieli

Washington as related to Paris.
France will later send missions to the.
other principal nations with the object
of establishing a similar accuracy
in the relative times. Once this
work is accomplished, the world will
receive time signals from the Eiffel
Tower and will ho able to register
them to within tho hundredth of a
second.
"This effort for accuracy to within
tho hundredth of a second has required
a tremendous improvement in tho
wireless apparatus and a great advanco
in clock-making. Two of the
most important pieces of tho equipment
which we shall take to America
will he chronometers of such extreme
precision that after being set before
leaving France they are relied upon
not to vary appreciably during the
whole of our time in America.
"We shall use photography in registering
Eiffel Tower signals for fixing
the exact longitude of Washington.

Worst Sufferers Although All Foreigners
llavo to Contribute.
Americans, (iermans and Spaniards
who arrived at 101 Paso, Texas, Sunlay
from Chihuahua, Mexico, report
that Francisco Villa, the rebel leader,
virtually has constituted himself dictator
there and that he refused to
heed the request of representatives of
foreign governments.
The refugees asserted that the
rebel leader had seized $5,000,000
worth of property belonging to foreigners.
had put to death about 20
Mexican civilians, including Sergeic
Sanchez, a lawyer and former State
official, and had commanded the
American, C.erman and British consuls
to obey rebel orders. The happenings
in Chihuahua since Villa occupied
the city on its evacuation by
the federal troops were told by the
refugees who numbered 1,000.
Villa seized a large department
store valued at $1,500,000 and owned
by French, German, English and
Spanish interests, but chiefly by Spanish
and placed in command of the
store Ben. Chao, a rebel leader. lie
also seized a breworv n Hnthtnc*- f.,n_
tory and all the grocery and oilier
stores owned by Spaniards valued at
$3,r>oo.ooo.
He called a meeting of merchants
of all nationalities and told them they
must pay him large sums of money,
aggregating several millions dollars,
to support the revolution, llo gave
orders that the so-called Constitutionalist
money should ho accepted as
currency.
Marion T.etcher, United States consul,
was asked by the foreigners to
protect them. Mr. Letcher attempted
to send a cipher message to the
state department but was informed
hv Villa that no cipher messages
would be permitted on tho rebel telegraph.
Villa then informed tho foreign
consuls In a body that they
would have to obey rebel orders.
Otto Kueck, the German consul
protested to Villa against tho exaction
of tribute from Hermans. Villa
threatened Kueck, saying tho latter
would he escorted to the border is he
persisted in his protest. A store in
which Kueck was interested was required
to pay $3 0,000. All homes
and property of the expelled Spaniards
were appropriated to tho personal
use of the rebels.
The expulsion of Spanish nuns nnrl
priests w.ere complete except that the
t)ishop, a Spaniard, was allowed to
remain. Villa's attitude toward the
consuls was hostile," a Herman clothing
merchant said. "The Herman
colony went to Mr. Knock for protection.
Mr. Knock went to Villa with
a protest. Villa said: 'I can not
shoot you, hut T can escort you to the
border.' Knock replied ho would remain
in Chihuahua as long as there
was a Herman citizen there."
The situation resulted in a conference
of rehel leaders at Juarez, at
which it was explained that Villa, he- j
Ing a military commander, rather
than the head of a civil government,
had acted without sufllcient advice.
It was decided that Hen. Carranza
should he asked to Immediately start
for Chihuahua, where hereafter he
might determine the future policies
of the revolution, after personal conferences
with Villa.
The meeting decided that Villa, by
his acts toward foreigners, had precipitated
a serious situation. From
Hen. Benavades, rebel commander at
Tuarez, came the explanation that
while the rebels regarded Spaniards
ns supporters of TTuerta and, therefore,
enemies of tho revolution, all
other foreigners would be given full
protection. Con. Villa's order, however.
was explicit, that he would not
guarantee protection to Spaniards,
J and that they would have to leave the
country within ten days on pain of
serious consequences.
As indicating their fear of Villa,
478 citizens of Spain, most of them
wealthy merchants of Chihuahua,

SAYS WE SHOULD OWN TELEPHONE
ANI) TELEGIIIAPII.
In His Annual ltcport I'ostinastcr(loncral
Becomes Outs|H?kcn Advocate
of Government Ownership.
A swooping declaration in favor of
the principle of governmental ownership
of telephone and telegraph lines
and an assertion that the postal service
now is self-supporting for the
lirst time since 1883, are features of
the annual report of Postmaster General
Burleson transmitted Wednesday
to Congress.
Concerning the acquisition of telephone
and telegraph linos Postmaster
General Burleson says that the government
has demonstrated its capacity
to conduct public utilities, and
from his present information he is Inclined
clearly to the taking over by
the post office department of the telegraph
lines and, possibly, also, of the
telephone lines. Discussing that, the
postmaster general says:
"A study of the constitutional purposes
of tho postal establishment
leads to the conviction that the post
oflleo department should have control
over all moans of the communication
of Intelligence. The first telegraph
line in this country was maintained
and opernted as a part of the postal
service, and it is to he regretted that
Congress saw tit to relinquish this
facility to private enterprise. The
monopolistic nature of the telegraph
business make it of vital importance
to the people that it he conducted hv
unselfish interests, and this can he
accomplished only through government.
ownership.
"The Act of July 2 1, 18GG, providing
for the government acquisition of
the telegraph lines upon payment of
an appraised valuation, and the Act
of 11102 directing the postmaster general
to report to Congress the probable
cost, of connecting a telegraph
and telephone system with the postal
service hy some feasible plan are evidences
of the policy of this government
ultimately to acquire and operate
these electrical means of communication
as postal facilities, as is
done by all the principal nations, the
United States alone excepted.
"The successful operation of the
parcel post has demonstrated the capacity
of the government to conduct
the public utilities which fall properly
within the postal provision of the
constitution. Every argument, in
favor of the government ownership of
telegraph lines may be advanced with
equal logic and force in favor of the
government ownership of telephone
lines.
j "It has been competently decided
that a telephone message and a telegram
are the same within the meaning
of th laws governing the tele'
graph service and therefore, it is believed
that tho statute the governj

[ linos of tho country will enable tlio
government to acquire the telegraphic
network of the country. While it
is truo that the telephone companies
have not complied with tho requirements
of Section 5,267, Revised Statutes,
this can not he held to nullify
tho intent of tho law, since tho nonuse
on the part of the government of
any of its constitutional privileges in
no wise surrenders tho right to exercise
those privileges whenever tho
Ifest interests of til nation dmand.
"In Juno last a committee was appointed
to make an investigation of
this subject to determine tho preliminary
steps necessary for tho government
to take toward the acquisition
of the telegraph lines of the
country in accordance with Section
5,267 of the Revised Statutes. This
committee is now engaged in preparing
its preliminary report and if
tho findings justify such action
proper recommendation will bo made
by tho department at a later date."

Thirty-eight men were killed Tuesday
by an explosion of coal dust In
the Vulcan mine of the Rocky Mountain
Fuel company. Two miners were
rescued after the underground workings
had caught Ore. All the victims
were married, and all hut six or eight
were Americans. Men in charge of
the rescue work asserted that it

tho bodies could be recovered,
Before sundown the mine had been
cleared of gas and a thorough exploration
of the wrecked workings
was made. Many of tho bodies were
mangled and burned.
The Vulcan mine was only about a
year old and was equipped with modern
safety devices. It is believed the
explosion was caused by an accumulation
of dibit in the west portion ol
the mine, where work practically had
been abandoned. Most of the dead
were found in the east workings, tc
which the explosion was communicat
