Bingham, Utah, Dec. 6.-After

mine, the posse which penetrated the
stronghold of Ralph Lopez slayer OF
six men, came out last night and an
nounced to the thousands of expect
ant miners that they had found moth

again the sheriffs of nine counties and
their hundreds of deputies have been
outwitted by the man who, several
times since the pursuit began, on Nov
81, has risked capture in order to jeer
at their efforts.
The smudges that had generated
deadly gases since Monday were al
lowed to die down Thursday night
and early Friday the double bulkheads

A party of ten went into the mine tC

slope on the 300-foot level a cave-ir

1t was thought possible that within
this slope Lopez may have takel
refuge from the approach of the pois
onous gases.

CONFISCATE FUGITIVES MONEY

Juarez, Mex, Dec. 6.-Instead of oc-
cupying Chihuahua, the state capital,
Gen. Villa with his 1000 rebels, who
were encamped along the railroad
north of the city, turned hurridly to
Villa Ahumda, the telegraph station to
dispatch more men in pursuit of the
Federals retreating toward Ojinaga, on
the border.
A garrison of 500 rebels occupy the
fort at Oiinaga and Villa said his sol
diers would not permit the Federals to
reach the border or cross over into the
United States without a fight. His
purpose is not only to capture the Fed
eral troops, but also to seize the arms
and equipment.
The Federals, however, will be in the
majority unless they are overtaken by
rebels. With the 1000 or more fugi-
tive Federals are Gen. Salvador Mer-
cado, the deposed military governor
and commander, numerous other gen.
erals and officers and members OF
wealthy Chihuahua families, who left
the city precipitately on foot in the
fear of a rebel attack.
Gen. Villa expressed his intention
to confiscate the money which the fugi.
tives were reported to have withdrawn
from the banks before the evacuation
He said he would protect the non-com
batants, except such as were consider
ed political offenders. Members of the
Terranzas family were placed by hin
' in the latter class.

the European governments as to the
prospects for an early termination of
the present conditions in Mexico which

foreign interests. There is no evidence
that these inquiries have had any ef-

west coast twice as extensive and with
