der four miles east and four miles
west of Douglas. The troops to the

Sibley. who Is under orders to join
his regiment In the Philippines.
Robert Harrington, the American
switchman killed by stray bullet
Thursday, was buried today. The
authorities were unable to get trace
of any of his relatives.
An exodus of families living In
Aqua Prieta into Douglas has been
a feature OF the day The refugees
say they have been advised 10 get
out of the town by the federal au-
thorities, as they are expecting an at
tack from the rebels. They report
that the rebel forces are at Cinezas
Springs.

FOOD AND CLOTHING FOR
AMERICAN PRISONERS

Chihuahua, Mex, April 19.-Via
Laredo, Tex. .)-Perhaps the most
unique scene ever witnessed within 6
Mexican prison occurred this after
noon when Vice Consul Leonard dis
tributed to the American prisoners in
the penitentiary the supplies which
had been contributed by the Ameri
can residents here.
The leniency with which the gov
ernment is treating the prisoners is a
surprise TO the officials The men
are not TO be held incommunicado,
but are TO be allowed to have daily
exercises in the pcnitentiary patio.
When Mr.. Leonard, with his arms
loaded with supplies of clothing, food
and tobacco, entered, the prisoners
were taken out of the cells. which in
tiers enclose the patio, and were lined
up under guards. The eagerness of
the Americans to obtain clothing was
intense.
For weeks they had been garbed
in rags with their shoes worn out by
the long march from Casas Grandes.
Soap. matches. combs and tooth
brushes We're the first choice when
the roll was called. The sudden APP
pearance of so much luxury occasion
ed much interest among the native
Mexican prisoners, who peered visit
fully out of their cells, unable to
share in the distribution.
Each American was provided with
a complete suit of clothes, shoes and
bundle containing soap, towels and
tobacco. Each also was given sum
of money. The status of the Ameri-
cans was formally fixed in the peni-
tentiary today as prisoners of war"
Under this form they may be held
pending further developments"

The situation all along the bor-

be too strongly condemned. and call
upon the citizens of Douglast assist

Good citizens should be more
concerned in upholding the honor of

chihuahua Aphil 19.--One thou
sand federal cavalry left here today
for the relief Of Ojinaga. They will
proceed by train to Palomir, thence
ninety miles overland to Ojinaga. The
insurreeto activity in the north found
most of the available federal troops
here. Now there is a general onward
movement to meet the insurrectos.
Word from the interior of partici-
patton of Francisco l. Madero, the in
surrecto leader in the fight makes 1t
less probable he will change his
movements to confer with his father
on peace proposals.
1t is possible the father may be able
to place himself in touch with the
leader Peace possibilities, as viewed
here, are growing more remote.
1t developed today the fourteen Am
,erican prisoners on their last days $
march to Chihuahua had had nothing
to eat For thirty-six hours they
were without food as they marched on
the hot desert through binding sanu-
storms.
This was due entirely to the ext
gencies of war and not to any neglect.
All the prisoners were in excellent
health and they arrived here in good
spirits.
United States Consul Leteher inter-
viewed the men individually and saw
that they obtained all necessary sup
plies. The first things the prisoners
asked for were soap, matches and to-
bacco. Owing to the excellent eli
mate here the prisoners in their cells
have plenty of air and light.
