Ell PASO, Tex, Nov. 12.-The cases
of the alleged Mexican revolutionisjts.
under arrest here upon complaint of
the Mexican government charging
them with melting a revolution, were
taken up today by United States Com
missioner Howe on preliminary trial.
A surprise was sprung by the counsel
for the Mexican government when the
charge of murder was also made. The
court was notified that the application
for extradition had been made upon the
murderers.
Villarreal, the alleged head of the
st. Louis, Mo-, junta, and Laero
Aguirre and Ramon Cano, supposed to
be associates of Villarreal. All were
remanded by the commissioner without
bail, pending the application by the
government of Mexico for extradition.
The United States department of com

deportation of Villarreal and he had
sued out writ of habeas corpus.

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PITTSBURG. Nov. 12.-Emboldened
by the apparent helplessness of the
police and detective forces of the city,
the holdup men and burglars. that have
terrorized this city for the past ten
days have apparently extended their
operations into broad daylight as well
as working under cover of darkness.
At a o'clock this afternoon at the cor
ner of Sixth avenue and Wood streets,
one of the most crowded spots in the
heart of the city and within few hun
dred feet of police headquarters, Mrs,
A. c. Joykin was assaulted and robbed
by two men, who made their escape.
The men had been following the wo-
man, according to her statement, and
as she turned the corner they sepa-
rated.
One hurried in front of her while
the other walked Immediately behind
The latter grabbed her about the
waist, while the man in front released
her purse and muff from her hands
and made off. She was thrown to the
sidewalk and sustained severe bruises.
In the meantime the members of
business firms are holding indignation
meetings and drawing up petitions to
the mayor and police officials.
The murder of Smith in the east end
by burglars yesterday morning has
aroused the city, and to-day a meeting
at the board of trade was held al
which vigilance committee was ap-
pointed. A resolution warming citizens
to arm themselves and recommending
the purchase of several bloodhounds
will be presented to the board and in
turn presented to the newly appointed
committee for action.
The regular meeting of the Pittsburg
board of trade, which was to have
been held next week, was put forward
to tonight. This organization dis
cussed the rising tide of crime in the
city and a committee will call upon
the mayor and city officials in an eff
fort to secure safety.
Newspapers are offering rewards of
$1,000 for the arrest of each or any of
the slayers of James A. McMillin, who
was killed a week ago, or of Harry F.

FOrty-Seven Perish
in Terrible
Wreck
Catastrophe in Indiana
One of the Worst
on Record
Immigrant Train Crashes Into Freight
and Cars Filled with Pas
sengers Burn to the
Ground
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov 12-More than half
the passengers on an immigrant train
on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad were
killed or injured in a collision today
between passenger train and freight
near Woodville, Indiana.
One hundred and sixty-five passen-
gers were on the train and of these
forty-seven were killed outright or were
burned to death in the fire which broke
out in the wreckage Immediately after
the collision.
The names of the dead will probably
never be known, as forty-five of the
bodies were consumed in the flames or
were so badly burned that Identification
is impossible.
Thirty-eight people were burned and
several of these will die. Eighty others
escaped unhurt, but lost nearly all their
baggage and clothing.
The disaster was caused by blunder
of some employe of the railroad COM
pany, but just where the blame lies
has not as yet been determined.
The passenger train, which was load
ed with Russian Jews, Servians and
Poles, all of them recent arrivals in
this country and bound for Chicago or
places in the northwest, was the second
section of through train from Balti-
more.
The engineer of freight train No. SO,
on instructions received at McCool, In
diana, waited at siding at Babcock
to allow the Immigrant train TO passS
| One report is that the engineer of
| the freight train had not been informed
/ hnf fhn
in two sections, and the other is that
the first section of the passenger train
carried no lights or signals of any
kind indicating that a second section
was close behind. AS soon as the first
section of the immigrant train had
passed the switch at Babcock the
freight train, in charge of Engineer
Burke and Conductor Moste, started
eastward.
Snow Increases Darkness
A light snow was falling, which in
creased the darkness of the early morn
ing and as the freight was rounding
sharp curve just west of Woodville
the second section of the immigrant
train came in sight a short distance
away, tearing toward Chicago at the
rate of forty miles an hour. The two
trains came together with unslackened
speed and in the crash six passenger
coaches and several freight cars were
knocked into kindling wood, and to-
gether with the locomotives went roll
ing down the ten foot embankment.
Fire broke out almost Immediately
in the wreckage and, although a num-
ber of the injured were saved by the
desperate efforts of the train crew and
surviving passengers the greater part
of those who were pinned down in the
debris were burned to death.
The flames spread through the wreck
age so rapidly that 1t was impossible
to save a number of people who were
only slightly hurt, but were held fast
by timbers.

SOUTH WOULD DEP0RT
ITS IDLE NEGROES
BY Associated Press.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 12.-The
second annual session of the Southern
immigration and Quarantine confer
ence began today. The real purpose of
the conference is to bring about more
equitable distribution of immigrants.
The idle negro class causes some APP
prehension in the minds of immigrants,
it is said, and this operates against the
south receiving what it thinks is It's
proper share of Iaborers from abroad.
Various plans are suggested for rid
ding the south of its worthless negroes
and the race question was thus early
injected into the discussion.
Governor D. o. Mahood of South Car
olina, speaking of the plan to deport
negroes said the deportation could not
be attempted unless it became a ma
tiOnal and not a southern movement.
