Governor Not Surprised

Denver, Colo, Feb. 2S-When in
formed that the Las Animas county
grand jury had submitted report to-
day after three months investigating
Of conditions and disorders in the
coal district without returning any
true bills. Governor Ammens express
ed the opinion that the state officials
could take no action in the matter He
explained that the mnitary prisoners
had been turned over to the civil au-
thorities and the failure Of the grand
jury to indict probably would end the
matter, unless new disorders ocelTred.
There was no change today in the
military situation Efforts we're made
to reduce the militia IN the field as
rapidly as conditions warranted, in ae-
cordance with the policy announced
some time ago by the governor. This
reduction was being delayed by unsat
isfactory conditions in some localities

No Hope Of Punishment

Laredo. Tex, Feb. 2S.-EAmericans
along the Mexican border we're not
hopeful today that the slayers Of
Clemente vergara, the Texas ranch,
man, killed by Mexican federals, would
be identified and punished by Pro
visional President Huerta's govern
ment. It was pointed out that the
Mexican war department exercised lit
tie restraint over the isolated bands
Of federal troops
The location of the body was still
unknown today. 1t is hoped to bring
it back to the United States.
The detachment of Mexican feierals
at Hidalgo, near where Vergara, an
American, was executed, was report
ed today to have evacuated that
point. one report said the detach
ment had been ordered to another
station in the course Of regular duty
Hidalgo is on the Rio Grande and in
close touch with the Texas border
It was to the Hidalgo command thai
Apolonio Rodriguez and the five 9th
er Mexicans accused Of kidnaping
Vergara were apparently attached. Nc
reports We're available here as to any
action on foot looking TO the recovery
Of Yergaras body.

Wants Troops Continued
A recommendation that the state
troops be kept in the strike district
until the strike has been settled Is
contained in report submitted by
the Las Animas county grand jury to-
day to District Judge A. W. McHen-
drie. The report declares that troops
are absolutely necessary in the dis
turbed districts, and mat to withdraw
them at this time would be unwise.
The grand jury was in session about
three months. The report submitted

tion with strike disorders.
