BROUGHT TO THIS CITY FROM
BAxLEY AND HELD FOR
SAFE KEEPING
STRONGLY DENIES ACCUSATION
He and Another Young White Man,
Who is in Jail at BaxIey, Charged
With Numbering Two Negroes Who
Were Recently Found in Woods.

John Boatwright, young white
man about 20 pears or age, is locked
in the GlynETounty jail, having been
brought here Tuesday night from
Baxley by Deputy Sheriff VHlman, OF
lAppling county.
Boatwright is charged with mur-
der, and the crime for which he Is
held occurred nQar Baxley several
days ago. The bodies of two negroes
who had been foully murdered, were
found in the woods, some distance
from Baxley. At first the officers
were puzzled as to how the negro
men were killed but they went to
wGrk on the case, which resulted
Tuesday morning in che arrest of
Boatwrieht and another young white
man, whose name could not be as
certained and who is being held in
the Appling county jail at Baxley.
Strong evidence was secured by Of
ficers against the two white men,
and, according to all the evidence in
the case, they are guiny OF the
crime. For just what purpose the
two negroes were murdered, or when
the crime was committed Is not
known. 1t was decided, however, to
separate the two white men and
Boatwright was brought to Brunswick
and turned over to Sheriff Berrie.
He denies any knowledge whatev-
er of the crime and says he Is inno-
cent OF the serious charge which has
been landed against him. 1t is lin.
derstood that the other man Arrest.
cd also denies any connection what
ever with the murder
The finding of the bodies OF the
two negroes created quite sensa.
tion at Baxley and for just what pur-
pose they were killed still re-
mains puzzle, but the officers are
slowly unfaveling the mystery.

FL Paso Tex, June 17.-Gen. Villa,
through his agents here, today issued
a general denial that there had been
anv split between himself and Gen
eral CarranZa. He said the arrest of
the Carranza officials at Juarez last
night was the result or a misinter-
probation of orders on the part of
Col Thomas Ornelas, in charge of
the Juarez garrison.
1t was learned, however, that be-
tween twenty and thirty employees
of the Juarez officers were Sent on a
special train early today to Chihau-
hau City the state capital, thence to
be transported to Torreon, where
Villa remained. These men, employees
of the custom house, telegraph office
treasury department and information
bTrau, were arrested late yesterday
by Coy. Ornelas in a raid on the
various national offices whare Car
rama appointes were employed. The
whereabouts of Perez Abreu was the
matter of most speculation. He had
Capmany, Carranza's agent at Wash
ington, as publicity agent of the rev.
Clution whose function it was to is
sue official bulletins to the press.
Perez Abteu disappeared when his
office was taken over by the Villa SOL
diers. He just had issued an an
nouncement that he was transcrib-
ing a bulletin regarding the Zacate-
cas- in which the Natera forces had
been defeated.

busy attempting to find explanation
from the south of the sudden turn
of affairs at Juarez, but the, rigid
censorship on kilograms from Villas
Headquarters at Torreon prevented
arrival of any messages except those
denying in a general way that the
constitutionalist commander in chief
and Villa, his northern chieftain, had
reached point of divorce on account
of the appointment OF Natera as
chief of the new central zone and
other incidents which the Villa ele-
ments have been reported as resent
