Mexican Stamps N. G.
By Associated Press.
Laredo, Texas, Sept 15.—Mexican
constitutionalist stamps are no good
in the United States, according to a
recent departmental ruling, and such
postage arriving here has been order-
ed held while a “postage due” notice
is sent the addressee. This clears a
complicated situation due to the fact
that the de facto government is not a
party to the international postal agree-
men.
For the first time in two years, in
fact almost since the Madero assassi-
nation, mails are now being sent di-
rect to Mexico City and interior points
from the southwest, instead of being
diverted by Vera Cruz. This has been
made possible by the resumption of
railroad service from the border.
Telephone Consolidation Likely.
By Associated Press.
Texarkana, Texas, Sept. 15.—Abol-
ishment of the dual telephone system
by the merger of the two companies
now operating here is likely within
the next few months. The question of
consolidation has been agitated some
time and councils of both the Arkan-
sas and Texas Texarkana have author-
ized the merger. The matter is now
up to the two campanies, to agree
within sixty days. It is now under-
stood a preliminary agreement has al-
ready been reached but no details
have been made public. Ordinances
have fixed a rate of $3 for business
telephones and |2 for residence tele-
phones.

treating in Fast Prussia before enor-
mous German forces. The Russians
hope to bottle up the Austrians and
Germans in Przemsyl, meanwhile con-
