With numerous parties securing the
county for the two murderers and rob-
bers who killed Cashier w. A. Bowles
of the Palo Verde Valley Bank at
Blythe Tuesday and robbed that in
stitution, the two men We're captured
in bed at the Franklin hotel in Ell
Centre at $3.50 this morning by Sheriff
Meadows, City Marshal Delaney and
Deputy Sheriff Cummins. The two
murderers were escorted to the county
Jail by the officers and strong body
of Ell Centre citizens.
At the county Jail the two men gave
the names of Paul Case and Tom
Green. Case gave his age as "a and
Green said he is % years old, but ow-
ing to the hard chase they have been
given they look much older, having
had no sleep since they committed the
robbery and murder at noon last Tues
day. Besides their general bedraggled
appearance, Green had suffered the
hideous loss of an eye with which he
had collided with a branch of sage
brush in the mad rush to escape the
pursuing posses. He has been with
out medical attention and has suf-
fered agonies, but is taking his trou-
bles without whimper. In fact, both
of the men took their capture stoically.
Since the finding of the mems
mounts between Holtville and Calex-
leo last night where they had been
abandoned exhausted by Chase and
Green, posses headed by Sheriff Will
son of Riverside, Burns operatives,
Deputy Sheriff Stancel of Ell Centre,
Deputy City Marshal Henson of Ell
Centre, Constable F. Gardner and
Charley Utting of Blythe, Under Sher-
iff Applestill and officers of the other
valley towns had been securing the
valley in an effort to prevent the es-
cape of the murderers into Mexico,
in which direction the men were head
ed when their horses gave out.
After Sheriff Meadows found the
mems horses last night between Holt
vile and Ell Centre and had given a
general alarm, he went on a still hunt
for his men, tracing them to Ell Cen
tro at an early hour this morning. He
sent available officers here to comb
the city.
Deputy Sheriff f. E. Cummings and
City Marshal Delaney worked together
and about o'clock this morning To-
Gated the men at the Franklin hotel,
where they were asleep in bed. En-
tering the room quickly Cummings
and Delaney each took a side Of the
bed, and simultaneously jerked the
mems six-shooters from under the
pillows, covering them with their own
guns. Deputy Sheriff Cummings then
called Mr.. Blanks, the landlord, and
had him telephone the sheriff's office.

Juarez, Dec. 5-While looting by
isolated bands, or confiscation of
property by the rebels, may con-
tinue, the days of fighting in Northern
Mexico are numbered, so far as the
present revolution is concerned, ac-
cording to opinions expressed by rebel
leaders today.
General Francisco Villas assertion
that there is not much to fight for
in the north because of the bank
rupt condition of the federal army,
which caused them to evacuate so i'm
portant a city as Chihuahua, has
spread among the rebels. What most
Immediately concerns the so-called
constitutionalist party now is the
elaboration of its civil government.
This embraces a more systematized
customs to be enforced along the bor-
der. The rebels hold all the i'm
portant border towns except Nuevo
Laredo and Piedras Negras.
There remains also to be put in
force uniform currency system, for
rebel and federal currency are now
in conflict, one kind being acceptable
in one place and another kind in an
other. Rebel postage stamps already
are in use.
Many governors and state officials
are to be selected. For all practical
purposes within short time, the
leaders say, a government will be in
operation in the northern half of the
country, which will be entirely de-
tached from that at Mexico City.
The settlement of the civil cues
tion is one reason why Villa has
asked General Carranza to meet him
at Chihuahua.
Sylvestera Terranzas, a newspaper
editor of Chihuahua, who is not re-
lated to the wealthy Terranzas family.
has been selected for governor of the
state. Villa expects to leave to Car
no 70 cly IF ctnI IL,
government, devoting himself to the
military campaign southword towards
Mexico City.
With 1000 rebels, General Villa, en-
route from Juarez to the evacuated
city of Chihuahua, has reached Mon
tezuma, 115 miles south of the bor-
der. Five thousand more rebels will
join him on the way to Chihuahua
giving him a combined form of 1000
men.
A force of 1900 men has been left
to garrison Juarez.
The fact that General Mercado, the
federal commander at Chihuahua.
sent a peace commission to Villa
through Federico Moyo, the civil
governor ad interim, is regarded by
the rebel leader as a mask to enable
Mercado to get away. So far the
rebels and federals have had no par
leys of any character and Villa said
he did not think Huerta's officers
would expect clemency from him.
