Ell Paso, Tex, Oct 9.-Federal
General Alvarez and his staff and 125
federal soldiers were executed in
Torreon, Mexico, under orders of Gen.
eral Francisco Villa of the Constitu
tionalist forces, according to informa
ton from reliable sources brought
here. With the city of Torreon, the
rebels captured practically all of the
Federal arms and artillery. The bat
tie lasted four days, with heavy losses
to both sides.
From Mexico City comes the report
that with the capture of Torreon by
the rebels, rumors became current Of
a massacre of Spaniards which, if con-
firmed, would approach the horror Of
the massacre of Chinese in tho same
city in tho Madero revolution in 1910.
1t is estimated that there are be-
tween sixty and one hundred Span
iards in the city of Torreon. Refugees
who have communicated with the reb-
els in that district declare that it has
been a common boast that they would
slaughter the Spaniards if they sue
ceeded in capturing the town.
Besides Spaniards, there are a num-
ber of French and German residents
in Torreon. Their diplomatic repre-
sentatives here are making efforts to
learn their fate.
Three hundred refugees. many of
them Americans, left Torreon before
the capture of that city by the Con-
stitutionalists and are making their
way overland to the border, according
to a dispatch received here. They are
expected to reach Laredo tomorrow.
| So far as can be ascertained, none
of the foreigners was injured either
while the street fighting was in prog
ress or during the reprisals which fol.
lowed the rebel victory, the Constitu-
tionalist commander providing pro-
lection for them, especially the Amer
leans.
| Americans who returned from Pie
dras Negras reported that one OF
those executed was woman. Federal
officials denied this.
The Norwegian steamship Jason mas
been seized by the Mexican gunboats
Morelos and Tampico for alleged VIC
lation of the neutrality laws, accord
ing to dispatches from San Diego.
Officers say the Jason was seized
for landing arms and ammunition des-
tined for the Constitutionalists at
Topolobampo.

New Freight Rates Granted.

Denver.-The State Railroad Com
mission has granted the Denver e Rio
Grande railroad permission to publish
rates on bituminous coal from Bowie
and Somerset to Denver, Colorado
Springs, Colorado City, Manitou, Pu-
eblo, Minnequa, Blende, Canon City
and Florence. The new rates will be
put into effect on account of the ne
cessity of moving coal short distances
because of the coal strike. The same
company received permission to pub
lish rate of cents per hundred
weight on ties and car lots from Hus-
ted to Colorado Springs. The Colo
RADIO C Southern will announce rate
of 25 cents per ton on slack coal from

Don't Need Game Fund Appropriation

Denver-A saving of more than $4O,-
900, which will be turned back into
the state treasury at the end of the
biennial term, is being effected in the
game and fish department of the
state. Through the new law requiring
a fishing license State Game and Fish
Commissioner Shinn has found that he
can put his department on a basis
that is practically self-paying. In
checking up the receipts from these Ii
censes, permits, fines, etc, the COM
missioner has found that the game de-
partment cash fund for the year
amounts to about $4,000, sufficient to
pay all current expenses of the de-
partment. Shinn believes that only
about $4,000 of the total appropria-
tion of 100000 made by the Legisla-
ture for the department will be used
in the biennial term. The new game
law requires that every sportsman,
resident or nonresident, who wishes
to fish or hunt in the state must take
out a combination fishing and hunting
license, which costs 81 year. Women
and children under sixteen years are
excepted.
