fSpecIaI to The Herald

FL Paso, Tex. July ia. w. WINS. for
many years head of the Mormon colonies

apostles. who had been at Casas Grandes

firms reports given out by the revolution

He came up today from the colonies re-
turning to Salt Lake. and says while he
believes the revolution is under control
there is considerable uneasiness.
Asked If the prisoners were given trials
Mr. WINS smiled and said no. They We're
taken before the judge without attorneys
to represent them and their statements
were taken, but their sentence and their
fate is known only to the judge. who has
submitted the findings to the higher court
at Chihuahua.
While the government perhaps got a
number of reVOlutioniSts they gathered in
a great many who il Is believed were in
nocent but they were big, strapping fell
lows. and it is believed the government
thought they would make good recruits
for the army. he says. SO they were sem
fenced.
According to Mr. WINS. there are about
100 cavalrymen and many infantrymen
now at Casas Grandes. in addition TO a
military company of volunteers in all the
Mormon colonies. The Mormons have
asked the government to remove the i'm
port duty on arms and ammunition so
they can secure supply for an emer-
gency, but the petition has not yet been
acted upon. Without arms the Mormons
were detailed to ride through the noun
tains in search of revolutionists. while the
armed soldiers OF the government were
detailed to guard the prisoners. he de-
clares.
Apostle WINS says the revolutionists
made an effort TO dynamite a train that
took the federal judge from Juarcz to try
their comrades. but one of the dynamiters
got "cold feet" and refused TO fire the
fuse when the train approached.
