Doubt as to Cause of Uprising.
Those engaged in the uprising are
chiefly Indians of the towns of xocen
and Chichimilla, who never have been
submissive to authority.
Reports as to the cause of the out
break are conflicting. Some declare that
it began with a protest against orders
issued by the civil officer tJefe politicO)
in charge of the municipality. Others
say that 1t was the result of a drunken
spree.

Governor Gives His Reasons.

Gov. Mann in stating his reasons for
the Communication, said he was unwilling,
after q thorough consideration, to send
the men to the death chair when it was
plain they had been convicted on the evil
dence of Henry Smith. the leader of the
gang, who went to his death last Friday.
Numerous petitions had been presented
to him asking for communication, signed
by the best known people of the city.
Smiths admission when he left his cell
to go 10 the chair that the other boys
are innocent of this crime, also in
fuenced the governor in reaching his
conclusions.
Added to this was the language of
Judge Barley, who sentenced Smith to
the death chair, in which Smith was
characterized a perjurer, thief and a
murderer, absolutely unworthy of the be-
lief of any man.
Concluding. the governor says that
with all the facts before him. and con-
sidering that Smith, the chief of the
gang. has gone to his death. he deems
that the other men are entitled to
communication. He orders that they be
confined within the prison walls for
the remainder Of their lives.

before he died Smith stuck to his story
even as he went to the. death chair.
The murder of Schultz, as described by
smith, was one of the most atrocious
crimes that ever occurred here. Accord
ing to Smith. he was forced to participate
in the murder at the point of pistol in
the hands of Pines. one of the trio.
Smith said the murdered man was not
given a chance for his life. He begged
piteously and in response to his appeals
was stabbed in the left size of the throat,
while the two others. with Smith as a
spectator. sat on Schultz.
After death Schultz was robbed. The
murderers, Smith said, departed after di-
