GONZALES NOW
THE GOVERNOR
Says Troops VIII Be Sent
From Here to Lower
California.

1t developed today that governor
Gonzales may delay his trip to Chi
huahua. It appears that the depart
ment of war of Mexico has indicated
that it is unwilling to have any large
body Of armed insurrectos employ the
National railways in entering the city
of Chihuahua with Abram Gonzales,
named as governor pro tenn of the
state. At any rate governor Gonzales
may not go to the state capital Mon
day as planned. Instead he may re-
main to supervise the disarming of a
major part of the rebel army stationed
at Ciudad Juarez and Casas Grandes.
Gonzales was officially informed yes
terday afternoon that the state legis-
lature yesterday accepted the resig-
nation of governor Miguel Ahumada,
and at once selected him to act as
governor until the next regular cleo
lions.
ex-governor Ahumada is coming to
FL Paso for a visit.
The lower California campaign
against the Magonistas will not be
taken up until after I go to the city
OF Chihuahua" says governor Con
z=1es. "As soon as il can be arranged,
GOout 600 men will go from Juarez un-
der Gen. Viloen, passing through the
United States. They win work in con-
junction with Gen. Luque. who will
move with a body of federals from tho
city of Chihuahua"

Some thoughtless critics have ridi-
culed the social activities Of the canal

Of the situation. Nostalgia was foe

to be dreaded. If the men on the ca

rational amusement there would have
been so many desertions that the com

The social experiments have been
worth many times their cost to the
government in the added efficiency
they have assured to the working
force.

KNOWN TO HAVE GONE SEVER
AL DAYS AT A TIME WITHOUT
FOOD OR SHELTER

Ell Paso, Tex, March 1S.-Al ap-
proaches to bridges leading from the
American side to Juarez, Mexico, to-
day were guarded by three times the
usual force of United States troops.
Heretofore only a small detail has
guarded the bridges, but today an en-
tire company of infantry is patroling
the bank north of the Rio Grande.
An American who returned from in
surrecto territory today, said Captain
Oscar Creighton, the American insur-
recto leader, who, with a small force,
has been destroying bridges along the
Mexican National railroad, is still en-
camped in the hills few miles south
Of Juarez. Creighton's band, which
is composed largely Of Americans, is
suffering severe hardships. The men
have often gone several days without
food or shelter and only their chance
killing of a steer has STAYED them
from actual starvation.
During last night somebody stolt
an old brass cannon from City Hal
park. It is reported It was seen early
this morning. being taken in the di-
rection of the Mexican border and 1t
Is believed to be the purpose to turH
it over to the insurTectos. The can
non was used years ago by Ell Paso's
famous McGinty club. 1t must have
been spiked and therefore is believed
to be useless.
