BRUTAL MURDER OF
TWO FOREIGNERS
Germans Killed in Mexico;
Beaten to Death and
Hanged. Too.

Douglas, Ariz.. Aug. 6.-That John
Hertling and Guido Snubert, VINO were
killed near Montevista, several miles
east of Cananea. Sonora recently, were
murdered in cold blooded manner,
was the gist Of q report made here
last night by Robert Hilburn, sent from
this city by German friends Of the men
TO make report on the affair to the
German government, of which they
We're said to have been subjects.
HiIburn reported that he found Hert-
tree, a grass rope tied around his neck
His hands were tied behind his back
lie was clad in an undershirt and a
pair Of oYeralls and wore no shoes.
Shubert, Hilburn stated, was found
lying on his back with a piece of rope
10 feet long around his neck. It seemed
that he had fought the men who had
attempted to hang him and that they
had then resorted to other means to
XIII him There was no tree within 80
feet of his body, which was badly mu-
ttlated. The bones of head and face
had been broken by rocks which lay
about him. His false teeth had been
broken in half by the stones.
So far as Hilburn said he was able
to ascertain, the motive for killing the
men was not robbery.
Hilburn buried the two bodies and
brought back here all of the letters
and papers he found on them, together
with samples of their hair and other
things with which to establish their
identity.
At Nacozari he caused the arrest If
two suspicious characters who were eX-
pected to be held in Jail until an in

Rebel General Tells Atwood
that Rebels VIII Be
Bandits Hereafter.

Taft had called them bandits Ma

were going to be bandits from that
time forth and would kill il necessary.
This is the statement that Gen. Ynez
Salazar made to L. P. Atwood chief
engineer on the construction Of the
Booker line from Pearson, to the tim
Der tracts in the Sierra Madres.
The threat of Salazar was made. At
wood says, when he returned from
his conference with OroZco in Juarez
and before the inflammatory speech at
Pearson. Salazar made his declaration
of intentions when Atwood called upon
him at his headquarters in Casas
Grandes 20 protest against the taking
of stock and supplies from the con-
structiOn camp.
When I protested, Salazar said he
would take anything he wanted and
whenever he wanted it," Mr. Atwood
said He said it would do no good to
protest to the United States, for that
government had prevented them get
ting ammunition and supplies and had
worked against them in every way.
Salazar told me that president Taft
considered the rebels robbers and ban
dts, Madero said they were bandits
and robbers and they intended to be
what they had been called, and would
kill If necessary. He told US to take
care Of ourselves, as he had withdrawn
our guarantees and said we could 'ap-

MEMBERSHIP
CORN CLUBS IS
NOW GROWING
Q. r. MoUARRlE is GREATLY EN-
Outraged OVER PROSPECTS
FOR THIS DEPARTMENT AT
THE FAIR THIS YEAR-INTER-
EST HAS INCREASED ALL OVER
THE COUNTY.

When seen by a representative Of
The Journal yesterday afternoon, j. r.
McQuarrie, the organizer of the Boys'
Corn Clubs in Escambia county, was
in most optimistic frame of mind
and said that he was greatly pleased
at the amount of interest which he
had encountered throughout the county
in this important feature of the agTi-
cultural developments of the county.
AS result of the efforts put forth
last year and with the hearty coopera-
ton of the teachers in the county, Mr..
McQuarrie had increased the mem
bership in the various clubs in Escann-
bia county this year to 107 against 81
last year. Last year was the first
year in this county and this is consid-
cred fine increase for the second
year.
Practically every member of the
clubs of last year are in the new
clubs, according to Mr.. McQuarrie,
and each boy is endeavoring to beat
the records made last year.
Mr.. McQuarrie said yesterday after
noon that he was about through or
ganizing for the year, but ii is posi-
Bile that a few more names may be
added to the list before it is too late.
One of the most encouraging fea-
lures OF the whole proposition to Mr..
McQuarrie is that practically all of
the members of the various clubs
have already planted their crops, while
the others have prepared the land al
ready. In fact, a great many of the
boys prepared their land during the
winter months and are ready to far
Snrpass the records of last year. &C
ccrding to MIR. McQuarrie
These crops are to he cultivated un-
der the supervision of Mr.. McQuarrie,
who viii visit each crop as often as
possible during the season and win
give the same suggestions to ali the
members, so that each one will have
an equal showing when it comes to
the awarding of the prizes.
So great has become the interest
throughout the county in this feature
TSthat in addition TO the cash prizes
PHered by the Pensacola Commercial
association a number of merchants
aSed others throughout the county have
offered prizes in this department, so
that the boy who makes the best
showing at the fair this fall will have
reason to feel proud Of his crop.
While the quantity of the crop is
considered, it must be remembered
that the prime object is not SO much
to obtain the quantity, but to induce
the boys to use business methods in
the cultivation of corn and other
crops. The expenses incurred and the
Yield per acre are both to be con-
sldered by the judges in awarding the
prizes.
