MEXlCANS
THREATEN
TO FIGHT
TEXAS ALARMED OVER INVAS-
ION THAT is IMMINENT
RANGERS ARE In WAITING
Texas Governor Has Ordered Militia
to Be Ready-Series of Riots
May Culminate in Real
Battle

Rock Springs, Tex, Nov. 16.-
Great excitement prevails here over
the report that 800 armed Mexicans
from Las Vacas, Mexico, have cross
ed the Rio Grande river near Del
Rio, Tex, and are marching upon
this town with the avowed intention
of avenging the burning at the stake
here, on November 8, OF Antonio
Rodriguez, who is supposed to have
been a Mexican and who murdered
a rancher's wife.
Eighty ranchmen and cowboys
started out from this vicinity this
morning to meet the force of armed
Mexicans reported on their way here
to wipe out the town. The Texans
are mounted. AS they proceed the
ranchers and cowboys are Joined by
many settlers eager to engage the
invaders from across the border.
Rangers are being rushed to the
border to prevent the clash. and the
| situation is regarded as serious. 1t
is feared here that a clash between
the two parties will mean a bitter
and bloody war along the entire Rio
Grande.
| Governor Campbell has ordered
out the militia company from San
Antonio. The militia, it is thought,
will be unable to reach the border
in time to stop the trouble, because
the clash between the MeXicans and
ranchmen will take place so miles
from here.
The invaders approach was made
, known through long distance tele-
phone call from the sheriff OF Ed
p wards county, at Del Rio. to Cover
vfnor Campbell at Austin. A telegram
, from the sheriff of Edwards county
9 giving warning of the approach OF
the armed MeXicans was also receiv-
: ed here.
Governor Campbell has promised
to send Texas rangers to protect the
town. This was in response to an
urgent request sent by the sheriff
of this county.
The governor has ordered the
sheriff to have all the sheriffs and
. deputies from surrounding counties
. report to him at once for possible
war duty.
The governor is also getting in
touch with all the state rangers in
the vicinity.

COUNTY CLERK
ON MERRY CHASE
AFTER BALLOTS
Official Count 10 Halted BY Discov.
cry That Election Judges Fail
ed to Properly Certify
the Returns

Life is not one grand sweet song
for County Clerk Luther and JUS
tices Of the Peace Pressly and O'Con-
nor. who have been making the offic-
ial count Of the election for Weld
county.
Tho count was progressing beauti-
fully until last night when 1t was
founl that several OF the precinct
judges had failed to properly certify
their returns. In one instance the
full returns were not in-that be-
ing precinct II. at Avalo.
There was only one thing to do
and that was to hunt up the judges
so this morning the county clerk and
his assistant official tabulators got
a big automobile and started. They
will have to go about 90 miles for
one prec,Ict. In some instances
they hope to have the election
judges meet them at convenient
point and certify to the returns. 1t
is expected that the work will re-
quire at least two days and mean
while the breathless politicians will
have to walt.
As far as can be learned the Of
fetal count In Weld will differ but
little from the unofficial returns
publised in the Tribune soon after
election. Only few votes here and
there will be changed and in all
cases the majorities are large enough
to preclude a contest.

sobs.

She told OF riding behind the Ill

roadside, of hearing the shots ring
out. and seeing the aged pioneer fall
forward from his seat into the bot
tom of the vehicle. She told of hear
who, before he fell, threw up both
hands with the cry. "Oh, my God. y
The sobs came when she told OF
the little blind girl being killed at
almost the same instant and of the
later finding the blood smeared
corpses, and several women in the
court room wept with her.
A wrangle between the attorneys
came over one answer she made re-
garding seeing Rising in the road
soon after the crime. Attorney Car
penter for the defense asked the
witness II her reply on this occasion
was not different than the one she
gave to the coroner's jury to a SINH

denial from the states attorney and
when the lawyers sought to argue
the matter they were interrupted by
Judge Garrfgues who sharply told
them to proceed with the trial. The
