ZAPATA MOVING ON MEXICO
CITY-MEXICANS FLEEING
Vera Cruz, May 15.-Gen. Emilio
Zapata, rebel bandit, is within ten
miles of Mexico City with 5000 men.
The loyal troops in the city have been
sent forth to meet him. MeXicans are
fleeing from the capital in great num-
bers as reports of Zapata's plans for
looting and sacking the city have
spread and fear of his UnOrganized
band spreads hourly.
A courier from the French lega-
ton is prepared to meet Zapata with
a large sum of money, which will be
given the rebel leader in return for
assurances that places over which
the French flag flies will not be mo-
Tested.
If ZaData cOntemplates an imme-
date attack on Mexico City it would
appear that he has broken the bar
gain which he made with Gen. Villa
to hold back until the latter had
taken SaltiIlo. If Zapata should at
tack Mexico City it is understood he
will not oppose the rebels from the
north, but will prepare the way for
Villas triumphant entry.
The capture by the constitutional
lists of TampicO means that both Villa
and Zapata can obtain arms and am
munition through the port and this,
it is believed, will hasten their attack

Douglas Agricultural College Club
Easily Banked by Morse's Pilots

Quite a number of local fans saw
the local league team defeat the club
representing the Eleventh district ag-

afternoon with little difficulty, The
score being to 0.
OF course the Pilots did not present
anything like their regular line up,
as it is expected that number of
changes will be made before the open
ing of the season. However, the boys
all showed up very good. OF the re.
Cruits, however, Weller, who covered
third, seems to be the most likely.
He fielded his position in good style
and came in for two hits during the
game.
Young Manson of Darien twirled for
the locals for six innings and pitched
good ball, not allowing a semblance
Iof hit. Only three men went to
first while he was heaving, two Of
them on free passes and one being hit
He was relieved in the seventh by
Morris, who also did WELL giving up
only one hit.
The Douglas school boys played
coed fast ball. They fielded brilliant
ly at times and no doubt have
strong amateur aggregation.
