Mexicans Drift North
After Coming to Texas
Houston Post Spedsl
COBPUSCHBISTL Texaa. Auc. IT.
Many Mexican laborers being brought
into - this country to relieve the acute
labor shortage are leaving the firms
and going to States as far north as
Penaylvania and Minnesota according to
J. A. Burnett member of the - United
states imimgration service at Laredo
who waa in Corpua Christ. The problem
of rounding up these men and returning
them to the farms of Booth Texaa where
they are supposed to remain under the
terms of the contract by which they
were brought into the United States is
proving a serious drain on the resources
of the immigration service. The govern-
ment however is determined to re turd
all these wanderers to their proper it
Uon and eventually to Mexico as their
residence in this country is only tem
porary and they were only permitted to
cross the Rio Grande to relieve the
pressing need foe more laborers on the
farma of South Texas. '
In connection with the importation of
laborers from Mexico Mr. Burnett called
att entioa to the fact tbat all persons de-
si rinc to brine laborers across the Rio
Grande for work on farms should make
their requests throuah the immiaration
office at San Antonio. Otherwise requests
for laborers can not be enteatained. Mr.
Burnett stated aa it is absolutely neces-
sary that all .requests go through the
proper channels.
"lbe tmmirratlon authorities at La
redo." Mr. Burnett said "are almost
daily receiving requests for laborers.
These requests are returned and the ap
plicants instructed to lay needa before
the immigration office at San Antonio.
Much unnecessary delay and annoyance
will be obviated if applicants will conform
to this regulation."

Nationwide Price Agitation
Upsets All Trading
Centers '
- Associated Preaa Report
NEW YORK. Auk. 17. Labor condi
tions and other indications of social un
rest notably the nation-wide price agita-
tion accounted mainly for the further
break in stock-market prices last week.'
The decline had the effect of correct-
ing the fictitious -or unstable position of
many v of the more speculative .issues.
Another factor was the complete collapse
ot foreign exobsnge. .
Steps were take to ameliorate condi-
tions by tbe organisation of a credit cor-
poration whose chief function would be
the placing of fund to meet foreign obli-
gations in this market. It was generally
recognised however that readjustment
of exchange waa well nigh Impossible
without - substantial aid 'from the foreign
governments most concerned.
"J. be money market waa unusually eaay
as to call loans but this condition re-
sulted mainly from reduced stock deal-
ings. Bankers realise that -the money
market will be put to ita severest test in
the impending domestic and foreign de-
mands. -
Apart from the nnsettlement created
by labor disturbances the industrial sit-
uation wss rather mixed. Better condi-
tions prevailed aa to iron and steel in
which greater production was reported
wane tbe leatner and textile industries
were measurably affected by the hich cost
of living.

DOWNWARD TREND IN COTTON.
Associated; Press Report
NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 17. The trend
waa downward in cotton last week under
the influence of such trading features
ss the war on the high cost of living
the Mexican situation slumpi in the
market for cotton goods and the weak-
ness of foreign exchange. No support-
ing features of importance developed
until late in the week when the market
acted somewhst over sold and took on
a steadier undertone on realizing of
irofits on the short time. At the lowest
evels the active months were 164 to
180 points under the dose of the preced-
ing week and last prices were at net
losses of 127 to 143 points. In the
spot department prices lost 87 points in
the net results middling dosing at 80.88.
The cjosig quotations on October was
UU.40.
Weather -and crop news was rather
mixed. Official returns were somewhat
better than expected while private re-
ports were inclined to talk in a gloomy
way ot crop conditions. Mucn insect
damage waa claimed in Texas. At the
end of the week however re porta from
Georgia claimed that pickingVwas becom-
ing general in South Georgia.
This week increased attention will be
paid to crop accounts. The August crop
reoort of the covernment will be leaned
September 2. The trade will watch dosely
devdopments in congress in connec
tion witn tbe attempt to include clothing
in the provisions of the food control act.
Eventa in the market for cotton goods
and the 'trend of the foreign exchange
market are likely to affect the course
of prices.
STEEL MARKETS.
Associated Press Report. (
NEW YORE. Aua. 17. 8teeTnrodnc-
tion is reported to be gaining and the 80
per cent oi capacity level in some m-
stancea already haa been passed. The
uncertainty of the labor situation and
the equally uncertain matter of produc
tion costs have combined tea f of oe aeiUts
of steel products into a mere conserva-
tive stand and buyers are renortinc
greater difficulty in booking orders for
mture supplies.
In the pig iron market the situation
is uniformly favorable and price scale
haa been strengthened still more. The
export sales of pig iron have been esti-
mated at around 60000 tons. Tbe en-
tire export trsde in iron and sted pro-
ducts is considered very satisfactory.
From the point of view of sales the
copper market here still is quiet.. Most
of the activity centers around re-sale
lots generally at from 21 1-2 to 22 cents
a pound.
The lead and spelter msrketa are both
showing mors healthy signs. The local
tin market whtinues steady at a gen-
eral easy level. All restrictions are now
lifted. -

FRIENDS OF PEACE
TREATY PREPARE
TO FORCE ACTION
Every Effort Will Be'Made
to ..End . Committee
.Delays
Associated Press Report.
WASHINGTON Aug. 17. What
promises to be one of the crucial weeks
of the peace treaty fight in the senate
began Sunday with' the issuance of a for-
mal statement by Senator Hitchcock of
Nebraska the administration aenate lead
er declaring conditions throughout tne
country demanded that the treaty be
brought out of tbe foreign relations com-
mittee promptly and ratified.
For five weeks Senator Hitchcock said
the treaty has been "in cold storsge" in
a committee controlled by its enemies..
Action on it should be toe nrst step be
guea in dealing wain tne nign cosioi
ing.
During the week the ontstsndinr fea
ture of which is; to be the White House
conference Tuesday between President
Wilson and the committee Senator Hitch
cock is expected to make a senate speecb
urging that the treaty be brought to a
vote and voicing opposition to any amend-
ments. Monday the committee will resume its
bearings.
Leaders said the senate might have
only a brief aession Monday and then ad
journ until Wednesday when Senator
uwen-emocrat has given notice be will
speak on the league of nations.
Interest in Tuesday's White House
conference increases as the time draws
nearer. It is expected Mr. Wilson will
be asked to disclose many of the inside
developments in the peace negotiations
which the members ssv they have failed
to ret from the witnesses examined.
Senator Hitchcock s statement wired
here from the senator's summer home st
Swampscott Mass. wss made public
torougn tbe local oince of tbe league to
enforce peace.
"The treaty ratification situation" the
statement said "changed somewhat dur-
ing the past week. A new issue was
raised when I asked the chairman of the
foreign relations committee anu majority
memDers wnen tney proposed to get ac
tion.
"I took this course after consulting
with a number of senators. There has
been a growing demand for action by the
committee. It has had the treatv since
July 10. For five weeks therefore the
treaty bas been in cold storage without a
vote or any other action. The senate is
waiting and the country is waiting and
the impatience is increasing. Every one
knows that the enemies of the treaty and
opponents oi tne league or nations con-
trol the committee. Every one also
knows that they do not control the sen-
ate. Public sentiment resents the sug-
gestion that the opponents- of the treaty
might keep it locked up in committee and
this greatly delays ratification."
Mr. Hitchcock said it was the hope of
the administration forces to begin voting
in committee this week on the proposed
amendments perparatory to having the
treaty reported to the senate in a week
or ten days.
