The militia today suppressed a serious outbreak in the Trinidad District when the strik ers attacked and overpowered the mine guards. 'I he guards were rescued with difficulty. the situation in the strike zone is tense and other outbreaks are expected at any time. The War Department today issued a proclamation ordering all persons in the strike zone district, not 111 the United States Military service to sur render their arms without further delay. DENVER, COLO., May 2. - State and Federal authorities co-operated today in an effort to settle the Colorado coal strike, but tonight the situation was unchanged. Regular troops occupy the Trinidad, Fremont county, and Walsenburg dis tricts and State troops still are in ser vice at Ludlow and in the northern coal fields. At the direction of Major Holbrooks additional State troops late today were sent from Ludio to Ag uilar. The action of Secretary Garrison in granting the joint request ol Major Holbrook and Governor Amnions for more Federal troops Has served to al lay uneasiness in quarter. where it was (fared be quota of regular sol diers would not be sufficient to main tain order. .While Major Holbrook and Govern not Amnions today devoted efforts to get additional troops, the question of disarming strikers and mine employes remained in a secondary position. On behalf of the operators J. F. Wel born, president of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company announced that the miners and guards would be disarmed when ever such action was deemed expedient by Major Holbrook. The situation is still critical in the inninan ann walsenburg districts, where the strikers refused to lay down their arms as ordered by Major W. W Holbrook, commanding the regulars iearing tnat tney would he lead into a trap and left at the mercy of the com pany's machine guns. During the night hundreds of strik ers secreted ineir arms and ammuni nition where they cannot be reached by searching troops. The men refuse to disarm until the mine guards lay down their weapons and the machine guns which have mow ed men, women and children in battles during the last few weeks are removed.

Promptly at 9 o'clock the first signal to the citizens of New Bern and sur rounding county that his delightful Joy Spot, as it is generally termed, that it is open for the summer season, will be the ascension of a mamouth illuminated balloon, 26 feet in circum ferenee. This balloon at an altitude of 500 feet or more will emit great showers of colored fire which will be attached, to the balloon and timed bv a Slow fuse to cause the cumbustion. This will be followed by an exhibition of fireworks; consisting of 50 pieces, displaying various scenes when high in the atmosphere.

Will the Mexi cans fight.' 'I he case with which the marines landed in Vera I ruz has led many Mex icans to conclude that the march to the City of Mexico would be a simple mat ter, more or less of a parade. But the heads of the Army and Navv here are suffering under no such delusion. It is generally and quite correctly taken for granted that the I ruted States will win in the end, but victors' will onlv come on vanquishing the flower of the des cendants of thi proud Spanish con querors, that small fraction of the Mex ican nation which possesses almost all the property of the county which is not in the hands of foreigners anrl whlr-b holds the peon class almost in serfdom. Huerta's principal reliance is the cul tured upper class. They don't love Huerta, but they love Mexico. They will fight. Huerta's principal weakness is the vast peon class, sunk in mass ignor ance. They will fight and run away to fight another day. The peons possess no such national spirit as even the lowliest American workman. They must be impressed into Huerta's army. They cannot be disciplined. But they are cruel and bloodthirsty, like their ancestors who offered human sacrifices on stone al tars in Montezuma's time, and they will wage guerilla warfare long after the principal cities are in the hands of the United States. In his desperate effort to arm him self against the Constitutionalists and the vaster peril which has now mater ialized, Huerta has ent squads from the. tried troops he kept as his body guard in the capital to impress men of the nearby Indian villages which cluster in the valley of Mexico. Many photographs received here show those prees gangs at their work--actually stealing men In. 111 the hos,n.t of their families. The Indiands with their enormous hats, are seen march ing in a hollow square of soldiers through the streets to the barracks where they are driven into the recruiting office to "volunteer." When General Scott in the f.rst Mexican war arrived just south of Mexico City and fought the battle of Molino del Rei, h,- found barring his further nroeressian ranrmmi. Ki- ricade. Santa Anna had this ercected by the Indians of the neighborhood The Indians did not know why they had put up the barricade. They did not know what the quarrel between Santa Anna and "Yanciuas" was ahnm All they knew was there were armies marching around with banners flvine and bands playing. So, it is related General Scott ordered these same In dians to tear down the barricades which they had just erected. , The Indians demolished their work for General Scott with as much readi ness as they had put it up for Santa Anna. The Indians of today are lit tle changed from those of 1847. v The tremendous impor.an-e of this indifference in attitude of the Indians is seen when one notes the division of races in Mexico as follows: Whites, 1 per cent. Mixed (mostly part Indian) 54 per cent. Indians 30 per cent. Blacks 1 per cent. Illiteracy runs according to different accounts from 75 to 95 per cent. It is on the 15 per, cent of whites that Huerta must put his principal reliance, although he himself at leat ij half Indian.- There is a small per' centage of capable Indians like Huerta and the famous patriot, Benito Juarez.
