CARACRISTI QUITS
THE INSURRECTOS

Austin, Tex. March 27-Dr. c. F. T.
Caracristi, who had said he was an
adviser to Francisco /. Madero, leader
of the Mexican insurrection, has an
nounced his withdrawal from the Mex
lean revolution, declaring he would
not have further connection with, the
insurrectionists. In a formal state
ment DR.. Caracristi said In part:i
From now on I am through with
the revolutionists in Mexico and will
not advise their leaders through the
coming crisis. Dr. Gomez, the repre-
sentative Of the insurrection in Wash
ington, is right when he says that l
belong to no junta. But he admits
to the world that some Of those juntaS
OF his own people are violating the
neutrality laws by sending arms
across the border.
TT has been my work to turn the
Intervention of the United States il it
must come, to the advantage OF the
revo1utionists rather than for the Diaz
government, The statement that the
Standard Oil company has contributed
to our funds is absolutely without
foundation"

workmen under the influence of liquor
on the Carroles. ranch, near Jimenez,
entered the office of manager A w.
Brock, and leveling pistols. called him
and his office assistant vile names.
Mr.. Brock demonstrated with them
and advised them to go to their homes
but this did not seem to have any ef-
feet as one Of the men fired shot at
the office assistant and several more
were fired without effect. Finally, the
leader aimed his gun at Mr.. Brock and
fired. wounding him in the right
shoulder. Mr.. Brock pulled his auto
matte and fired several times, wound
ing two OF the men when the others
rushed out of doors.
The men had been paid off that day
and drank heavily to celebrate the TAX
ing of two adjoining towns by the
rebels Mr.. Brock, accompanied by the
office assistant, drove to Jimenez and
gave himself up to the police authori-
ties, who, after taking his statements
and that OF the assistant, exonerated
him.
1t was learned later that the men
dynamited the ranch stables and made
several attempts to burn adjoining
buildings, leaving later to join the
rebels near the town of FL Vale.
Mr.. Brock left Wednesday for the
ranch, the doctors pronouncing his
wound not serious.

WHERE rs JOSE DE
LA LUZ BLANCO?
Wire on the Mexico North
Western Cut Again;
Maybe Blanco Did
it: Who Knows?

Col. Jose de la Luz B1anco, a rebel
chieftain with about 500 followers, is
lost in the shuttle south of Ciudad
Juarez, and on him depend develop
ments A week ago he started to
march from the state of Sonora to join
the main rebel command of Madero,
who with Blanco's reinforcement was
planning to attack something in the
northern part Of Chihuahua. But Blan-
co. whose full name literally translates
into Joe of the White Light" is
nowhere to be found
Last week Joe was reported to be at
Janos, a small town northwest of
Casas Grandes. Yesterday he was re-
ported locally to be in the hills west
OF Ciudad Juarez, arranging an at
tack on the border city. And today
he is placed in the Casas Grandes dis
trict again, only this time near the
town of Pearson.
Insurrecto representatives in FL
Paso admit that they don't know where
Blanco is. or was, or will be. Mill
tary authorities of Ciudad Juarez an
nounce that the rebel chief is in FL
Paso. resting awhile, and that his
men are in the hills also resting
That fact that the North Western
railroad wire, which worked Friday
and SATURDAY. to Casas Grandes, is
down again, makes it pretty certain
that Blanco is somewhere on the line;
also that the railroad company is not
going to begin its contemplated re-
nairs-not vet. The officials will wait
to send out construction men at least
until the telegraph wire is working
again.

COL. CUELLAR MAKES
GOOD AS FIGHTER
Requests to Be Sent to the
Front and Loses an
Arm.

Lieut. Col Cuellar is no tin soldier
nor parlor strategist. He has
demonstrated this before Casas Gran
des at the sacrifice of his good right
arm which was amputated after he
was wounded in the wrist.
When Gen. Navarro was planning
his campaign in northern Chihuahua
after his arrival in Juarez, Cuellar re-
quested that he be sent to the front
with the first command. This. Is bar
rack room gossip among the dapper
federal officers in Juarez, who tell it
to their friends over the cafe tables.
Cuellar, as the story goes, was consid-
cred kid glove fighter of the pink
tea variety. None knew that this was
the army's estimate OF him Better
than he did. When the actual fighting
was to be done he asked and was CIV
en- permission to lead the. division that
was sent out to the south to find the
insurrectos
His valorous actions before Casas
Grandes is now ancient history. He
easily demonstrated that he was neith-
er tin soldier nor a kid glove fight
er. Instead he came out Of the engage
ment as the hero of the battle and Is
to be breveted for his bravery.
This same barrack room gossip is
authority for the report that Francisco
1. Madero has sent Lieut. Col Cuellar
message of coincidence because of his
trouble and expressing his deepest re-
greet at his misfortune

MINES IN PARRAL :.
RECEIVE DYNAMITE
Despite Rebel Disturbances,
Mining Outlook Is En-
c0Eragine Now.

Parra1, Mexico, March 27.-The mines
OF the Parral district are receiving
shipments of dynamite, the railroads
are being repaired and opened up for
traffic and transportation, labor seems
sufficient for the demands made upon
it and the mills are turning out bars
of silver for market Such are the con-
ditions effecting this district now with
the revolution playing second fiddle to
its progress and development.
Mining men, whose opinions are
worth regarding seriously, say that the
mining industry, in this and the sur
rounding districts, will show an i'm
provement over former days when the
railroad first came to Parral. In those
days the foundations for steady and
substantial progress were materially
hindered by the lack of mills The
smelter charges for treatment being
about double what they are today OF
course it must be said In defence of the
shelters that the methods then in
vogue were not as modern as those in
use now which. of course made the
cost of treatment higher. Neverthe-
less. mines having competent men IN
charge made money in those times. and
with the reduced charges and the large
number of Independent smelters now
in operation there is no reason why
more properties should not be devel-
oped and operated from now on in this
district.

FILIBUSTERS AT
WORK IN SONORA
Pima Indians join Rebels to
Fight Yaquis With
Ee6eFa1S

HermoSillo, Sonora, Mexico. March 81.
News has reached here that band
Of American filibusters not affiliated
either with federals or revolutionists
entered northern Sonora at the little
town of Siraca and captured a young
Mexican and shot him. All American
residents of this city are signing a
petition addressed to governor Torres
denouncing this act and offering their
services to arrest this band and to
bring its members to Justice.
Americans here have enjoyed full
protection from both federals and rev.
olutionists
The revolutionary force that took
the town Of La Colorado, 40 miles from
here, were well received by the in
habitants and promised them they
would not fight battle in the town.
When they heard of the approach of
the federal column from this city the
reTolutionists marched out to meet
them. leaving a guard of so men in
the town.
The federals came upon the town
from another way, and were met only
by the guard Of SO men. These b6
were about one-half Pima indians, who
are the best shots in the revolutionary
ranks. At the first fire from the guard

The Pima indians with the revolu-
tionists have five belts Of cartridges,
two over each shoulder crossing on the
breast, and one around the waist
They are good shots at any range.
Many of the ordinary soldiers of the
revolution have only 10 or II car
tridges.
With the federal force is a large
body of Yaqui indians. Thus these
two tribes of ancient enemies now meet

which consisted of dies, hubs, counter
felt money and Mexican silver which
had been rolled to the thinness OF

During the course of the hearing, 1t
was brought out that the intrinsic
value of the dimes which are said to
have been made by Perez Is greater
than that of the American dimes, as
they were made from Mexican silver
money and conained more and high
er grade of silver.
The attorneys for the defence did
not produce any evidence IN behalf OF
the defendants and the case was turn
ed over to the federal court, The
bonds for the two defendants was
placed at the same amount as before
for both Perez and his wife. which
was $4,000 for the man and $1,000 for
the woman The woman gave bond
