the private secretary of General Reye
are those named in the indictments.
Sanchez, Magoon and Villareal
were taken into custody at Laredo
Instructions were telegraphed to
Scr Hetonio for the arrest OF the
Others
Today's indictments came as a eli
max TO an invesugaJ1on Dy tho FED
era1 grand jury in progress for sew
eral weeks, of reports that an upris-
ing in Mexico with General Reyes as
the leader was being arranged on this
side of the border.
Today search is being made for

ABILENE AUTOMOBILES
ARE TO BE TAGGED?

The Abilene autoists would better
be careful in breaking the speed
limit in a few weeks, that is, II he
does not want to be a guest of the
police Judge and pay him money for
the honor of having his name reg
istered on the judges guest roll.
The city commissioners are thinking
of having all the automobiles in Abb
lene numbered. No license is to
be charged for tag, but $1.OO will
probably be asked for the cost OF
the little Feather square. These
tags, If the commissioners adopt an
ordinance providing that all auto
mobiles shall be numbered, will be
put into use at once.
The marshal then will not have
to pull out his six shooter and pune
ture an automobile tire with lead
to bring a car to stop so that he
can arrest the speed limit violator.
All he will have to do is to take
the number of the car. consult tue
city clerks records and find out
whose automobile the number be-
longs to and then have a warrant
issued for the arrest Of the speed
fiend.
