leo, With General Carranza
as President.

Ell Paso, TeX.-At a conference held
in Hermosillo, five northern states OF
Mexico decided to secede from the
federal government to form the Con-
federate States of Mexico, according
to a message from Hermosillo Tues

The states whose representatives
agreed to the secession plan are So

commander, as minister of war; Au-
gustin Labansat, minister of haciendas,
and Juan Sanchez Azcona, minister of
foreign relations. Eduardo Hay, 1t is

AMERICANS FLEE FROM MEXICO
REFUGEES CONTINUE TO CROSS
INTERNATIONAL BRIDGE.
United States Troops Rushed to Sor-
der-Three Special Trains Take
Cavalrymen to the Front.

Piedras Negras, Mex.-Terror has
gripped Piedras Negras, the provis-
ional capital of the constitutionallsts,
with the victorious northward march
of the federals and the arrival of hun
dreds of refugees from the surround
ing devastated country.
A steady stream of people poured
across the international bridge Tues
day, many carrying on their backs
what they had been able to bring with
them when they fled from their
homes Many Americans were among
them, following two official warnings
to proceed to Eagle Pass, on the Amer
lean side. Rioting and pillaging is
feared as the disorder grows worse.
Failing to obtain assurances that
the property of foreigners will not be
molested, after formal protests OF the
United States department of state
were lodged with the constitutionalist
chiefs through Consul Blocker, it is
understood that an ultimatum Will fol
low the first attempt to interfere with
foreign property What form this will
take has not been made known.
Two suuadrons of the Third Cav
airy, one machine gun platoon of the
Third Cavalry and Battery G OF the
Third Artillery, under command OF
Lieutenant Colonel Guy Carlton, were
rushed in three special trains over
the Southern Pacific lines to Eagle
Pass Tuesday.
Complying with imperative orders
to leave Mexico at once, many Ameri-
can refugees crossed the international
bridge Tuesday. w. w. Vaughn, a
well known American engineer, who
has lived in Mexico for many years,
was peremptorily ordered to vacate
his house as plans had been made to
blow it up later in the day. Afford
| Williams, manager of the Lyman drug
store in Piedras Negras, also was no
titled to leave with his family at the
earliest possible moment. In both OF
these cases it is alleged that the
Americans were living in houses own
ed by enemies of the constituencies
cause and that these properties would
be destroyed regardless of any protest
that might be filed by the American
government.

chIId's Skeleton Concealed in Wall.

Bloomington, Ill.-The mansion at
Clinton, ILL.,, erected forty years ago
by Colonel Thomas Smell, yielded an
other sensation Thursday when it was
learned that the skeleton of a child
in a homemade coffin had been found
skillfully concealed within a wall.
Wreckers tearing down the residence
made the grewsome discovery, which
adds another chapter to the stormy
history of Colonel Smell, who died
about seven years ago and for whose
fortune famous fight was made in
the courts of Illinois. The body of
the child had been buried in a starch
box with a sliding cover, which easily
opened, exposing the bones when the
house wreckers found it.

feat and is in full retreat toward the

At least 1900 refugees from the dis

toward Piedras Negras with the inten-
ton of crossing the border into Texas.
Heavy loss of life is reported in the
two days fighting which began Satur-
day below Aura, when constitutional
lists massed for a desperate attempt
to check the long expected federal in

BANDITS ROB TRAIN AND GET BIG sum
Apparently HoId-up Men Were Youths
Engine and Two Cars Cut
Loose and Run Wild.

Tuscaloosa, Ala.-The Alabama ana
Great Southern passenger train was
held up Friday by bandits, the express
messenger was shot at and about S5o'-
600 in cash taken. After ten suspects
had been arrested as the result OF
the combing of the country about the
scene of the hold-up of the Alabama
Great Southern passenger train NO.
at Bibbville early Friday night, lead
ers of half a dozen posses called their
men in in the belief that the three
bandits are among those now IN GUS
tody. Apparently none of them is
more than 80 years old, and all protest
their innocence.
Reports still are conflicting as to
the amount secured by the three men,
two of whom are described as mere
youths. who held up the train and
dynamited the express safe, but one
report is that the amount will reach,
if not exceed, $4,000. Express COM
pany officials will make no statement.
/ The train was stopped by the set
/ ting of a danger signal at BlDbVllle.
/ When the train came to stop Engl-
neer Daniels and his fireman found
/ themselves looking into the barrels OF
revolvers in the hands of a man ap-
parently still in his teens. Another OF
the men engaged in subjecting the
mail clerks and the third devoted HIM
self to the express messenger. The
next procedure was to uncouple the
mail and express cars from the re-
mainder of the train and run them a
safe distance from the passenger
coaches. Meanwhile several shots
were fired in the mail and express
car to terrify the clerks and when
the right location was reached all OF
the train crew in sight were marched
to a corn field, while the man who
acted as leader wrecked the express
safe with several charges OF nitro
glycerin.
The robbery accomplished, the throt
tie was thrown open, the bandit who
acted as engineer leaped from the cal
and the engine and two cars started
on a wild journey, while the robbers
escaped and the train crew trudged u
Bibbville and gave the alarm. Posses
we're quickly organized and the pur
suit for the bandits begun within TIVE
hours of the holdup. The engine wen
dead after running more than thirt.
miles.

1871 Negative Votes.

Galveston, Tex.-Galveston County,
in the good roads bond issue of $780,
600 voted Friday, carried the PROPOSE
ton by a vote Of more than four TO
one. The vote was very light, due 10
the inciemency of the weather. and, in
the city, to general apathy on the
part of taxpayers.
The roads recommended by the
commissioners under the S25O,OOO Is
sue are laterals, or feeders, for the
man shelled roads already construct
ed. These main roads now parallel
the railroads, for the most part, and
are thoroughfares through the county.
The rural sections of the county more
removed from the railroads and from
these shelled highways are fast set
Ting up with farmers, stock ralsers
and truck growers, and better road
| facilities are needed.
A road from League City to Friends
wood and to the Brazoria County line,
there to connect with the Brazoria
| County road to Pearland, is proposed.
/ A road from League City to Kemah,
and there to connetc with the Harris
| County road at Seabrook, and also a
ro.d from Kemah along the Southern
| Pa,iiic railroad to Bay View, there
to connect with the Clifton road and

A road from Dickinson to San Leon
is 20 be shelled, as is also road from
Hitchcock to La Marque, there TO

County road and the Texas City road
1t is also proposed to grade and shell
other roads through each town IN the
farming section of the county, extend
ing out two or three miles into the
country, thus affording road facilities
for dairymen, truck growers and
others who should desire to haul pro

ger. Granger, who was in the car at
the time of the collision, crawled into
the coach and Intellectually attempted
TO open the safe to get its contents
which he stated consisted OF nothing
but letters. Granger carried away the
face of the safe combination. His fail
ure to open the safe was due partly to
its position and the possibility OF It's
dropping on him. 1t would crash

Country Flooded Near AbbeviIle.

Abbeville.-One Of the heaviest rain
falls in the history of this section has
fallen during the week last past
More than eleven inches of rainfall
has been recorded in the United States
weather bureau gauge here. The en-
tire parish is flooded; Bayou NermiL
ion and other streams of the parish
are out of their banks. Rice fields
are flooded, the rice sheaves floating
on the water. The damage done by
the flood will be enormous. The loss
sustained by the cotton farmers, due
to cotton being whipped out of the
bolls and buried in the mud, will be
heavy.
