PEACE IN MEXICO
DEPENDS ON U. S.
Out Tia&er, Former Omahan. Who
Now Lives in Turbulent Sta'te,
Say Intervention Only Hope.
COUNTRY IS NOW BANKRUPT
Ous Trager, formerly of Omaha
and Chadron, and for eighteen years
connected in an official capacity with
the Ix)S Arcos Smelting company,
near Mexico City, is visiting Omaha
friends. With him la an aunt. Miss
Natalia von Schenck, and the latter 8
companion, Miss Alicia L. Nohl.
"The future peace of Mexico will
cVpend upon Intervention," was a
statement made by Mr. Trager during
a conversation on the subject of Mex
ico. He is hopetul that out of the
future will come peace and plenty
for the land of his adoption. Delng
in American, with interests in Mex
ico, he does not feel at liberty to go
into detail regarding the internal af
fairs of the republic.
Miss Schenck has lived In Mexico forty
years and has devoted much of her life
to ameliorating the condition of the
blind. She Interested Dlas In the estab
lishment of an institution for the blind
In Mexico City and has been active m
popularising Esperanto Rj a universal
language for the blind. Eight languages
have been mastered by this woman, who
is past 70 years of age. Miss Nohl is in
terested in Miss Schenck' work.
Last week in Boston these women
spent an hour with Helen Keller and
arranged for a visit In San Francisco
next week.
Mr. Trager is visiting Mayor Dahlman
and T. L. Combs, friends of former years.
W. M. Holland of Del Rio, Tex.. Is
another man visiting in Omaha who talks
of the Mexican situation from having ob
served actual conditions there:
"Mexico Is bankrupt," says Mr. Hol
land. "Its people are on the verge of
starvation. Its government has no money
In which the people have confidence. The
several political chiefs print paper money
which has no basis In silver and gold.
All the gold and silver money long ago
was shipped beyond the boundaries of
Mexico by Its owners. The sliver peso,
which corresponds In slie to the Ameri
can silver dollar, la worth at best only
17 cents, and very few of them are to be
seen. The gold has been shipped to the
I'ntted States and to Europe for safe
keeping, so that practically there la no
basis for any of the currency printed by
the government or by the pretenders.
. "I saw about MPO of Carransa troops
passing through Del Rio a few days ago
on their way to Ague I'rleta, the scene
of this week's battle. Many of these
troops were boys from 13 to 14 and 16
years of age and halt clad, and some
of them scarcely big enough to carry a
gun. I am told that half of tho Mexican
soldiers are young boys."
Mr. Holland says that business condi
tions In Texas are improving rapidly and
that the state as a whole la very pros
perous. He travels over a portion of
Texas as general agent for the Bankers'
Reserve Life company of Omaha.
