Omaha, Neb.-Two of the convicts,
John Dowd and John Taylor, alias
Shorty Gray, who escaped March IA
from the state penitentiary at Lincoln
and Roy Blunt, an innocent victim of
the murderous attempt to secure lib
erty, are dead as the result of an ex-
citing battle between the convicts and
officers, this afternoon.
Charles Morley, the third member of
the three, who escaped from prison af-
ter killing three officials Of that insti-
tuition, saved his life by surrendering
after a running battle over two and a
half miles of the country.
The three were within striking dis
lance of the goal which they hoped
might secure their safety, when the
final desperate struggle for liberty oc-
Cured. They had covered the stretch
from Lincoln to within 10 miles of the
Omaha lines, where they had expected
to receive the protection of friends.
The rural telephone played its part
in the chase, and the pusuers were able
to learn from homes along the route
of the progress of the fugitives.
Eight miles from here the officers
came upon the vehicle carrying the con
victs. Young Blunt was forced to lasl
his horses into a run, but the officer
kept up the chase until they were with
in a few hundred yards.

BATTLE REPORTED
IN west MEXICO
FEDERAL GENERAL VILLA WAS
CAPTURED BY REBELS AND
ORDERED To BE SHOT.
Thousands of Foreigners Trying to Get
Out of the Country-Red Gross Elk
pected to Look After Stranded People
Better Than to Send American War
ships.

FL Paso, Texas.-Word was received
here that General Pancho Villa, the fed
eral leader in the Laguna district Of
Mexico, had been captured by rebels
and ordered shot, and that severe
battle was fought at Gomez Palacio.
Twenty-Five hundred foreigners in
the Laguna district are said to be try
ing to escape from the country.
News of the battle was brought in
by three refugee Americans, the van
guard of the French, German and other
foreigners who are fleeing from Mex
leo.
Thirtyeight federal volunteers and
10 rebels were killed in the fighting, it
was reported. The engagement was not
decisive. Torreon and Gomez Palacio,
large railroad station, are connected
by street car The latter was and is
still in the hands of the so-called lib
erals or rebels, while the former is in
the hands of government troops.
Arms From Torreon.
Pablo Lavine, a federal soldier, it is
said, was discovered to have been tax
ing rifles and ammunition from Torreon
to Gomex Palacio, and it was deter
mined to attack Gomez Palacio at once.
A force of 1000 federal volunteers was
assembled for the purpose. The fed
eral regulars, numbering 1900 men, de-
clared that they were loyal to Madero,
but that they would not leave the city
to the danger from hooters.
The volunteer army was met on the
outskirts of Gomez Palacio and thou
sands of shots were fred. The volun-
teers then retreated back to Torreon.
State Department Worried.
Washington.-The state department.
is trying to learn just how many Amer
leans on the west coast of Mexico are
destitute and in need of transportation
to the United States. If it is found
that there is need the Red Cross is ex-
pected to look after these people as it
did in the case of American colonists
stranded recently in Honduras. 1t is
felt that relief can be extended in this
way better than by dispatching Ameri-
can warships to Mexican ports and
thereby needlessly exciting the appre-
tensions of the Mexicans.
Leaving Mexico.
San Francisco.-American refugees
from Mexico arriving here Sunday on
the Pacific mail liner City of Sydney,
via Acapulco, report that complete an
archy prevails in the region about the
Mexican capital. Foreigners have talk
en- to heart President Taft s advice to
Americans to leave the country, and
are departing as fast as they can ar

transportation, say the passengers

Battler Had Been Resurrected After Ia
Years Burial in Havana Harbor-
Remains of 65 Members of the Crew
Brought to National Capital for
Burial.

Havana.-Under lowering skies and
heavy sea, the old battleship Maine,
resurrected after IA years burial in
Havana harbor, Saturday plunged, with
her colors flying, to her everlasting rest,
600 fathoms deep in the water of the
Gulf.
The sinking of the hulk was carried
out precisely as planned, marking the
end of the work begun more than a
year and half ago.
Passing out of the harbor the fotilla
headed by the Maine proceeded in ST
lence, with flags at half-mast.
When the three-mile limit had been
crossed the American cruisers took up a
position to the eastward of the wreck
the Cuban warships moved to the west
ward, and the accompanying vessels
were grouped to the north and south.
The arrangements for the sinking
consisted of numerous valves in the
bottom of the hulk and large sluice-
ways in the bulkhead, which, with all
the doors in the two permanent bulk
heads remaining in the ship, were
opened at 5 o'clock.

Begins Sinking.

For 10 minutes no change was Wis
Ible in the battered hulk, which pitched
heavily as the rollers struck her. Then
she began sinking at the bulkhead. The
stern rose, and iii a few seconds the
hulk was almost vertical, showing first
the propellers and then the full keel.
The next moment there was a flash
of blue and white, the ensign flying
from the mast struck the waves and
disappeared. simultaneously the decks
were blown up by the air pressure, and
the Maine plunged down, leaving flow
ers on the surface of the sea.
Whistle blasts from the whole feet
were the only salute. Ten minutes later
the Cuban flagship Hatuey fred a fare
well national salute to the squadron, to
which both cruisers replied, then shaped
their course for Norfolk.
That was the last of the battleship
Maine, on which over 200 sailors met
death amid the echoes of a hidden
mine IS defamation on the night of Feb
ruary Is, 1898.

Mrs. Marion Bliss Declares
Bliss Spent Her Earnings
in Riotous Living.

Soeorro. n. NJ, Dec, 14-8Irs. Marion
Bliss, known also as Mrs Mabel Potts,
who shot and killed her husband, Ma
rion Bliss, who also went by the name
OF Roy Scott, declared she had been
driven to desperation by the brutality
Of her husband, who had forced her into
a life Of shame in order to support him.
She said Ne had wrung from her every
cent of her earnings, which he Lad
spent in riOtOus living. Bther than
submit to further goading, she says, she
determined to kill him believing that
If she did not, he would kill her, as he
often had threatened to do.
According to the woman's story. she
and Bliss were married in Pueblo, Colo,
several years ago. She says she was
an orphan and had supported herself
previous to marrying Bliss by working
as a domestic. Their married life was
never happy, but when two children
were born TO them, she believed that
Bliss would settle down and support
her and the children. However. he be-
came more brutal and several times left
her, but each time returned.
Mrs Bliss became hysterical in Jail
where she is held without bail She
regrets having killed her husband, but
believes it was the only thing she could
do under the circumstances having
been made virtual slave at his hands.
