Well Known Resident of This State Was Captain in

tBy Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Fl Pasoe 'eXas, April 1O-An Ameri-
can newspaper man who returned to-
day from Parral with 1874 American
and other foreign refugees from the
battle-sWept district, brought news OF
the execution Cf Thomas Fountain of
Las Cruces, n. NJ, by the rebels. Foun-

der General Pancho Villa When Villa
Iretreated last Thursday night, Foun-
tain removed certain parts of the

ignorant that they had a guest in a

Condemned by Rebel Court.
The American was driven By thirst
and hunger to reveal his presence on
Sunday, after seventy-two hours of
self-impOsed torture. He was armed
with revolver, but made no resls-
tance. On Monday he was compelled
tC show the rebels where he had Sc
creted the missing parts OF his rapid
firer, was tried by court martial and
condemned to DEATH apparently for
having disabled the gun.
American residents made every eff
fort to secure modification of the
sentence, but without avail Finally
American consul Letcher at Chihua-
hua sent to General Salazar what is
believed 10 have been an appeal from
Washington that his life be spared
In delivering the missive to a messen-
ger, the Consul remarked this is the
last resort"
In Mexico they have recourse to
what is known as the law Of flight
under which prisoner who has been
condemned but where there exists
doubt as to the legality of the SEN
tence, is allowed his freedom within
certain limits. The prisoner knows
that his fate is sealed. Even if he
does not walk step, rom some un-
expected quarter the fatal bullet will
core. and the report will be made that
he was shot while in flight" 1t was
thus in Fountains case. He told the
correspondent that there was no hope,
but strolled about the streets, waiting
fer death. When his body was
brought in, it contained four bullet
wounds, made by shots fired from be-
hind.
The young mans father was Colonel
Albert Fountain, who, with another
son, was shot by cattle rustlers in
New Mexico fifteen years ago. Colo
