MEXICAN REBELS
MASSACRE SIXTY
0emoIish Train by Placing Dyna-
mite on Tracks.
STAY INJURED WITH RIFLES
Zapatista's Followers Accused of Hav-
Ing Killed Wounded as They
Lay in Debris-American
Victim.

Mexico City, Mex, July 23.-In an
attack on a passenger train en- route
from this city to Cuernavaca, Moreios,
on Saturday, Zapatista rebels killed "a
persons and wounded nearly as many
more
The Zapatistas, said to number 500,
placed a mine under the railroad
track, which exploded as the locomo-
tive passed over it.
The overturned engine hardly had
settled when the Zapatistas sprang up
from all sides and poured murder
ious fire into the train.
The first object of their attack was
a second-class coach in which were
riding Mexican federal military es-
ants.
The federals got out of the car and
answered the fire of the assailants, but
their efforts were futile.
All of the command with the excep-
ton of five wounded and two who es-
capped were killed.
Thirty passengers in the second
class coaches were killed and many
wounded
In the first-class coach no one was
killed, but one person was dangerously
wounded and may die.
The conductor, an American named
Aller, is not expected to live.
After the train had been swept by
their fire the Zapatistas rushed on
their stricken victims and began kill
ing the wounded.
A priest, unhurt, pleaded with De
Loa, the rebel leader, to stop the
slaughter, and finally 1t ceased.
After sacking the express and bag
gage cars, the rebels poured oil on
the cars, and, putting the bodies OF
the dead in them, set fire to the
train.
When the relief train arrived there
was nothing but debris and few per-
sons, most of whom were hurt, to tell
the tale.
The train between Matemoras and
Puebla, in the state of Puebla, was
fired on and windows in the cars
were shattered, but so far as known
no one was hurt.
