Consul Garcia Says Their
Name Is "Acordadas";
Planck, Sonora Chief.
The organization of "acordadas,' of
ficers similar to rangers Id lhc United
States, Is the latest step t te taken
by the state governments of Mexico In
tea effort to stntnp out banditry, ac
cording to Andreas G. Garcia, inspec
tor of Mexican consulates and consul
general, who has returned to this city
after an extended Visit to Mexico City.
"These officers will be similar to
the old rurales of Mexico, but Instead
of being under the control of the fed
eral government, as tha rurales were,
will be under tha state governments,
said Mr. Garcia, Thursday morning. I
understand' that already the state of
Coahuila is organizing a force of these
officers, and that Gen. Carlos Planck
has been sent to Sonora, for the hun
pose el orsanltlnff a forca o'500 of
these men. ,
This organization will take the
place of an increase 1,1 the Mexican
army, it is believed, and Will be more
effective as A means of stamping out
the various bandit organizations oper
ating in the mountains.
Say Mexico Ik Quirt.
"The condition of Mexico is very
qiliet and more so than at any time for
a long teriod.' said Mr. Garcia, "and
bandits in the central and southern
parts of Mexico are being out down,
iiapata. I understand, is (still operat
ing, but is in the mountains and with
a small force. I left Mexico City Sun
day morning and stopped In Monclova
to vtsti my mower, wnom I naa not
seen for a year, and then came to
Eagle Pass by train without escort or
protection, ana everything was abso
lutely quiet
Food Is Great Problem.
"The food question In Mexico Is, of
course, the great problem today. Food
is scarce in the country and prices are
high for flour, corn and other cereal
foods, although meat Is cheap. There
is no speeiaL effort on the part o'f
the government to make arrange
ments for the importation of food.
To Open New Committees.
"o far as the reorganization of the
government Is concerned, it is princi
pally a qeustion of gettlna officials
of ability to administer affairs, and
the government Is making every ef
fort to obtain the best men every
where for the off Ices. Political affairs,
are In the best shape at present "
"I understand that the consular
rervice will be organized in tha United
States, but I am not able to give out
any details at present I understand,
however, that anetfconsulate will be
opened at Tunja. Ariz. Several con
sulates may be opened In the southwest.
rarally inth Gov. Mlrelex.
The report that Gustavo Esninosa
Mlreles, governor of Coahuila. had
sent ms ramiiy away on account oi
danger from bandits was denied by
Mr. Garcia. Ho stated that the state
of Coahuila was quiet, and that the
governor and his family were taking
a trip over the- state, a proof of its
quietness.
so rar as reported etroris or tne
federal ROvernment to borrow money
in uniiea ouiies were voucerucu.
Ir. Garcia stated that he Jiad no in
formation on the subject.
Won't Tnlfc On Neutrality.
"Consular officers are not allowed
to talk on international subjects, and
it is a very wise regulation." was Mr.
Garcia's reply when asked about sen
timent in Mexico City on the question
of neutrality in the war.

SHIPPERS READY TO FIGHT
INTRA CITY RAIL PROJECT
'Shippers of the large cities of
Texas thoroughly prepared to fight
the proposed cancelation of lntra-city
tariffs at the meeting of the Texas
Industrial Traffic league held at
Austin last Monday," said A. w.
Reeves, traffic secretary of the
chamber of commerce, who returned
from that city Wednesday evening.
The proposed hearing was post
pined Indefinitely because the car
riers did not have their side of the
case ready, Mr. Reeves stated. It was
set for last Tuesday.
It Is rumored that attempts to can
cel these tariffs may be given up, but
nothing definite has been announced,
Mr. Reeves said. Shippers fought the
abrogation of these tariffs because
they claimed that a return to a mini
mum road haul rates would be prohibitive.
