AMERICANS AID MtX|CAhS
MURDERED BY yAQU|S
Murderous savages Attack Railway
Stations and Massacre the En-
pIoyes, Many Being Butehered.

Los Angeles.-Colonel II. B. Max
son, vice president of the National
Irrigation congress, and secretary OF
the board of education of Reno, New,
who has been spending the past few
weeks in the state of Sonora, Mexico,
arrived in Los Angeles on Wednesday
with graphic story of the massacre
of Mexicans and whites which &C.
Cured at the little station Of Lancho,
on the c. Y. r. & p. railroad.
According to the statement of Max
son, his train stopped an hour at
Lancho. While there rumors were re-
ceived that the Yaquis were upon the
warpath, and that the few people in
the neighborhood of the station and
railroad were in danger. The station
master, a man named Thompson, be-
Titled the matter, and he said he and
his wife would remain at their post.
The train bearing Colonel Maxson
and party had not left the station
more than an hour when the Yaquis
descended on the little party Of Mexi-
cans and Americans and butchered
four. Agent Thompson and his wife
escaped by boarding a work train that
pulled in at the time. The train ap-
peared after four of the people had
been killed, and Thompson and his
wife defended themselves back Of the
barricaded doors of the station. As
the work train appeared the Indians
withdrew.
The train bearing Colonel Maxson
and party continued to a station fifteen
miles farther along the line and then,
as the signs of the desperate upris-
ing became alarming, the party decid-
ed to return. The train sta ted back
toward Lancho. and when IL arrived
the station house had been burned
and demolished. and four human bod
les lay along the tracks.
The party stopped few minutes in
the hope that survivors might be
found and taken to a place of safety.
While the train was at the ruins OF
the station, the desperadoes appeared
In the distance, but did not come with
In range Of the few armed people
on the train.
Not many miles along the road the
scene was duplicated. Four more dead
bodies of Mexicans and Americans
were discovered along the tracks. The
little band at this station had been
able to repulse the attack Of the
Yaquis with the loss of but four of
their number. The remaining men,
bers OF the company refused to
leave on the train, but said that they
could stand off the Indians until the
next day, when the rurales could reach
the spot and summary justice could
be melted out to the murders, II cap

LONG STRUGGLE
IS INEVITABLE
A Former French Premier'S
Opinion Concerning the
Law of Separation
Emile oliver Declares That the
French Government Would Like to
Go Back, But II Does Not
Know How.

Rome.-Emille oliver, who was
premier in France under Napoleon
ILL., has written letter to the Glor-
male d'Italia, saying 1t is too soon to
pass serious judgment on the Franco
Vatican conflict. I'VE must await"
M. oliver says, 'the instructions the
pope will give after the application Of
the law now before the French SEN
ate.
1T is evident that the French gov
eminent would like to go back, but 1t
does not know how. The logical and
strong measure would have been to
close the churches when the Catholics
refused to found cultural associations,
but the government feared a popular
rising. The pope knows exactly what
he wants, and with his inflexible will
he will win. II referendum Vote OF
the French people were possible the
policy of the government would not
find three million supporters"
NJ. oliver says he foresees that the
struggle will be long.

FALL DUE TO WOMAN.
Lady TownIey Said to be at Bottom
Of Durand's Withdrawal.

Washington. 49, Careful inquiries
among embassies show that 1t is the
common belief there that the humili-
ating withdrawal of ambassador Du-
rand is unquestionably due TO the
spiteful work Of Lady Townley, the
clever wife Of the former counselor
Of the British embassay, the Hon.
Walter Townley.
The feud between Lady Townley
and the Durands was a matter Of gen.
eral knowledge In the diplomatic body
during the whole OF the brief period
Of service Of the counselor.
Members Of the diplomatic corps
here believe 1t quite possible for
Lady Susan, through her high connec.
tons with the royal family, to have
so poisoned the mind of the King
against Sir Henry as to bring about
his recall.

FOUL MURDERS
IN MISSISSIPPI
Whites Tried to Protect In
nOcent Negroes From Out
laws and HOOdlumS.
The Mob Element Has Fled, In an
Endeavor to Escape Punishment,
But the Authorities are on the
Trail Of the Guilty Men.

New ans.--That white men
protected innocent negroes, and that
every effort is making by the whites
to punish "hoodlums" of their own
race who we're responsible for the
Christmas riots in Kemper county,
Mississippi. Is the information in de-
tailed accounts arriving from the little
towns which were the scene OF the
bloodshed
District Attorney Currie has made
a public statement In which he says:
81 found upon an investigation that
the trouble was caused by q lot Of
hoodlums and outlaws who openly vio-
lated all laws of God and man and
decency. The four men killed Christ
mas day were not connected with the
affair in any manner and I am in
formed that the houses burned were
occupied by negroes who were not
even in sympathy with any Of those
who were connected with the outrages.
These men will be captured II 1t is in
the power of the state of Mississippi
to do so'
The dispatches say that the total
death list is probably twelve; that the
mob element among the whites has
mostly fled toward the Alabama state
line, while negroes in terror have
gathered at Scooba and Wahalaka to
place themselves under the protection
of troops or of citizens.

AGED REcLUsE MURDERED.
Head Of Victim Horribly Hacked
With Hatchet.

Kansas City.-Thomas Tanning,
aged 80 years, wealthy property
owner, who lived alone, was MUIR
dered some time Sunday at his home,
1918 Olive street, in this city. The
head had been horribly hacked with
q Ratchet. The crime was reported
to the police by William Tanning,
the murdered mans young nephew.
Young Tanning, who is the dead
mans only heir, was held for inves.
tigation, but later was released.
Robbery was not the motive OF the
crime, as $1,000 was found by the po-
lice in chest in the room where the
body was found lying. In the old
mans pockets were a gold watch, $13
in money and deposit slip, showing
that he had deposited $4,000 In a 10.
cal bank on Dec. 5.

car after running a distance OF five
blocks, struck telegraph pole and
turned turtle. The passengers were
thrown in a heap in the mud beside a

operating the brake on the rear plat
form, probably prevented much
worse accident, as his action reduced
