MEXICANs BEAT AND
ROB MAN AND WIFE
Outrage on American Cou-
pie at Niesca Goes
UnDunISled

TorreOn, Mex, Oct l6.-The Mexican
officials have not yea solved the mys-
terry connected with the outrage at
Viesca, where five men broke into the
home Of William Mccoy and maltreated
him and Mrs. mccoy. Both were Sc
verely beaten though Mrs. McCOy's con-
dtttOn was worse than that of her hus-
band Both are gray haired people,
without any known enemies, and the
motive for the assault cannot be de-
termined
Mr.. Mccoy has been in the place for a
number of years He resides about
midway between the town Of Viesca
and the rubber facOry. Mrs. Mccoy was
the only American woman among the
families Of those connected with the
plant who is in Niescas the others be-
ton OF manager John Q. TreadWeu OF
the Mexican Crude Rubber company
The local situation had been very un-
satisfactory for weeks, ana a month
ago manager IreadWeI complained TO
the authorities Of the manner OF pub
licly selling liquor and permitting the
continual presence Of women Of i'll fame
on the plaza which 1T IS said they have
monopOlized for weeks.
Details from N1esca show that the
assailants were armed and entered the
Mccoy home in the dead of night Their
presence was not observed until they
entered the room where the Americans
Law sleeping. Their object was loot,
and when they were resisted by Mr..
Mccoy the latter was severely beaten
over the head with a pistol.
His wife, In the meantime, became
historical and cried for help. When ad-
monished not TO do so by the robbers,
she replied that she could not refrain
from shouting. In order to quiet her
one of the men struck her into insensi-
bility with another pistol. The struggle
with Mccoy was renewed and the
American had almost succeeded in
wrenching the pistol from the grasp
Of his assailant when the weapon was
discharged, shooting Mccoy in the
hand. Upon releasing his hold tenn
porarily the rObber believed he had
killed Mccoy and the men hurried from
the house, taking with them $500, which
they had found before their presence
was discovered.
