AMERICAN GUT ID PIECES
YANKEE IS ASSAULT.
 ED AND LEFT FOR DEAD.
One Hundred Others Reported to Have Fallen Into Hands of Ban
 dits-Condition lndescribabe.

San Francisco, Sept. 16.-Word of the murder of Morris P. Root, Ameri- can superintendent of the Fl Tigre mines at Topic, Mexico, has been brought here by the steamer Peru, which had about 100 refugees aboard.
 Root was intercepted by few ban. dits when he was on his way to de- fend the mine property. He was dis armed and cut to pieces. Root was 50 years old, and had been in Mexico about 16 years.
 Max Lambert, another American engineer. who arrived on the Peru, was injured, and left for dead by ban dits who attacked his home in Topic. Lambert's wife and child escaped by crawling through rear window. Lambert remained to greet the ban dits, whose approach was noticed when they were a mile away. They fractured his skull. When they de- parted Mrs. Lambert returned and summoned aid.
 The refugees were from points along the western coast of Mexico. They reiterated stories of refugees who preceded them. Western Mexico is in a state of anarchy, they said. Rebel chiefs do not recognize each other, and when they are not footing and committing murder they are fight ing among themselves.
 Americans from the state of Du- rango asserted conditions there are beyond description. They said the country is overrun with bands of drunken peons, who commit any and all kinds of crimes.
