Washington, d. c., April 1.-THE
indignation of the state department
officials over the execution OF
Thomas Fountain, the American
gunner with the federal army, who
was captured by the rebels at Par
raj is believed to be certain to pre-
judice any attempt on the part OF
the insurrectos Of Mexico to obtain
recognition in their fight.
The state department had done
everything in it's power to prevent
the execution which it is believed
violated the rules Of all civilized
countries.
The opinion Of the state depart
ment maintains the execution was
a deliberate murder.
