HEAR RUMORS OF A l
 FREIGHT HOUSE
Believed Frisco Management Is Contemplating Con-
 struction in This City

 From statements made yesterday by J.
 IT. Doughty, general agent for the Fris- co, it is believed that new freight house. will soon be erected in the city by theI mana cement of that line.
 He said that the company would proo-I ably not allow the present freight termi-| nals to remain where they are now situ-| ated as the present location is considered by many as being too far out of the city,I necessitating long haul and was other-| wise inconvenient. He intimated that an appropriation would be made in the newl budget for the freight house which has| been designed for the company property1 situated on Avenue A and Eighteenth street, extending back to Sixteenth street.I
 The Frisco purchased some time ago aj considerable amount of property on Ave- nue A between Sixteenth and Eighteenth streets for freight house, but allowed the appropriation to be taken up for someI other purpose It is believed now, howl ever. that as the competing lines are allI down town that the Frisco will not de-| lay making the improvement contemplated ed several years ago.
 At present the Frisco freight house is| located on Ninth avenue and Twenty-sec-
 ond street. If the Frisco begins the con
 struction of the freight house this year it will mean the expenditure of consd- erable money. It is believed that the improvements will be authorized although no official announcement has been mace.

AMERICAN SHOT AND ANOTHER PRISONER
 OF OROZCO'S REBELS
Captain of Federal Gun Is Executed - PeremptOry Demand for Release
 of Engineer

Fl Paso, Tex, April 10.--An American newspaper man who returned today from Parral with ls4 refugees from the battle swept district brought news of the exc cution of Thomas Fountain, an American, by the rebels. Fountain was captain of a federal gun under Gen. Pancho Villa and Lieutenant Martinez. His home was at Las Cruces, N M.
 American residents made every effort to obtain a modification of tho sentence. but without avail. The American consul at Chihuahua sent to General Salazar what is believed to have been an appeal from Washington that his life be spared. In delivering the note to a messenger the consul remarked This Is the last resort" Apparently 1t had no effect.
 When Villa retreated last Thursday night, Fountain removed parts of the piece and concealed himself in private residence. The occupants were ignorant that they had a guest in a part of the house seldom used.
 The American was driven by thirst and hunger to reveal his presence on Sun day after 72 hours of self-imposed torture.
  no resistance.
 Monday he was compelled to show the rebels where he had secreted the missing parts of his rapid firer, was trie6 by courtmartial and condemned to deatA, ,kp- parently for having disabled the gun.
 In Mexico they have recourse to what is known as the law of flight" under which a prisoner who has been con- demned, but where there exists doubt as to the legality of the sentence, is allowed his freedom within certain limits.
 The prisoner knows his fate Is sealed. Even if he does not walk a step, from some unexpected quarter the fatal bullet wil come and the report will be made that he was shot while 'in flight"
 It was thus in Fountains case. He told the correspondent that here was no hope but strolled about the streets waiting for death.
 When his body was brought in it contained four bullet wounds, made by shots fired from behind.
 The young mans father was Col. AL bert Fountain, who. with another son, was shot by cattle rustlers in New Mex leo 15 years ago. Colonel Fountain was one of the most famous lawyers of the then territory and was noted in par ticular as q prosecutor.
 Washington. April 1o.-The state de- pertinent has brought renewed pressure to bear to secure the release of c. A. Heberlein, the American consulting engi- neer, who has been held prisoner by the Mexican rebels in Jiminez since April T. A telegram was dispatched today to American Consul Letcher at Chihuahua. directing him to make a peremptory de- mand upon the rebel leaders for Heber- leins immediate release.
