Mexcali April 10.-As a result Of
the wounds sustained in spectacular
assault of so men upon 500 federals
under General Mayot, General STAN
ley Williams is dead today at the
American hospital. He will be buried
at Mexicali. 1t is believed that "a
missing Americans who accompanied
Williams Saturday are dead. General
Mayot says that he lost IL men:
Williams death was caused by a
missile that ploughed through the
head at the base of the skull, tearing
away the rear portion of the brain.
While not in as great distress as
the rebels themselves at first believed
the defeat of Williams nevertheless
proved a perfect route of the attack
ing party. In all so men who par
ticipated in the daring sortie have
returned to Mexicali. Eleven others
have deserted, and are now in the
Jail established by the American
troops at Calexico. The remaining "a
of the band are believed to be dead as
the fedsrals took no prisoners.
That any escaped alive is due only
to the failure of the federals to press
their advantage and pursue the rout-
ed insurrectos as they fled in wild dis
order from the field.
Colonel Miguel Mayot, the federal
commander said today when he was
visited at the Lee Little ranch, that
his loss was IL dead and Il wound
ed.
AItboupb cenara1 Fro pcisco Calinas
the rebel commander here, declared
that Williams was the only dead, and
Timote Aguelar the onIy wounded,
the solemn procession to the grave
yard at nightfall disproved this.
The insurrectos visited the battle
field early today and loaded the dead
into two wagons. The federals did
not molest them. In fact so great re-
spect was instilled into the national
troops by Williams daring attack.
that they did not even pursue the
routed insurrectos. but refrained even
from visiting that portion of the field
where the rebel commander had post
ed men.

ing from 4 blow from stone, she says
she was temporarily deranged and
when she first came back to her sens

All but despairing of ever again

journal correspondent and requested
that he send a picture of his wife to
that paper, stating that he believed
she was some place in that city. and
that, IL she saw 1t, would communi-

ments justified his belief.

PRIMITIVE TELEoRAPHY.

An amusing story of reckoning by
notches comes from Preston, Eng
land. The other day North Coun-
try cattle dealer entered a telegraph
office and handed a telegram which
consisted, besides the address, of
eight strokes. The clerk inquired if
these were meant for figures. "Call
them figures or whatever you like"
said the sender, $50 that they come
out the same at the other end, and
I'll tell you why. That telegram is
going to my housekeeper. She can't
read or write a word, but when the
telegram reaches her she'll count the
strokes, and understand that / shall
be home at eight o'clock tonight"
