RevoIt Near American LIne,.

Vera Cruz. July 7.-Word Of a revolt
on the part of a large number Of the
federal troops stationed along the line
in front of the American outposts
reached constitutionalist agents in this
city late tonight. The advices convey
ing this information also expressed the
fear that General Huerta would send a
punitive expedition from Cordo b Q
against the mutineers.
In order to prevent a clash between
forces loyal to Huerta and those re-
ported in revolt near the American
lines, which might result in complica-
tions with the American outposts, 90
tavio Campero, Carranza's agent here,
appealed to General Funston for per-
mission to pass the lines last night in
order to instruct the mutinous troops
TO move rapidly away from the neigh
borhood Of Vera Cruz into territory held
by the constitutionahsts.
General Funston, who already had
been informed that unusual develop
ments Of some kind were taking place
within the federal lines, had given or
ders to the outposts to maintain un-
usual vigilance. He refused Campero's
request on account Of the existing arm
istice and in order to maintain the neu-
trial position OF the American forces.
Campero and other eonstitutionalist
agents hope to be allowed to pass the
American lines tomorrow. They plan
to join-the revolving federals and hope
to be able to avoid any action which
might bring about firing within range

BIG POTATO CROP AND

That the potato crop throughout
southern Idaho is at least 80 per cent
greater this season than last, and that
at least 1900 cars will be shipped out

is the opinion of A. F. Dechman of Po-
catello. general sales manager for the
association, who with Harry L. Yost,
general inspector of the association,
has made an automobile trip from Twin
Falls to Weiser and also covered many
of the valleys in which potatoes are
raised in addition to the territory about
Idaho Falls and st. Anthony.
Mr. Dechman believes Idaho pota-

fall and will be in greater demand than

DOUBLE MURDER
CAUSFSCOVERNOR
TO OFFER REWARD
Two Men Are Shot Down in
Their Cabin Near Hope,
in Bonner County, by I'm
known Men.

Hoping to Lead to the arrest of the
person or persons who brutally muir
dered Howard Shipley and Pat WEIGH
in their cabin near Hope, Bonner
county, Governor John M. Haines last
night officially posted a reward of $500
on behalf of the state for their capture.
The reward was offered on the urgent
request of many residents of Bonner
county, who sent petition to the gov
ernor, together with the facts with ref
erence to the double murder. The re-
ward stands for the murderer or muir
ders, dead or alive.
The crime was one Of the worst in
the history OF Bonner county. Shipley
and Welch Jointly occupied a cabin
three miles from the Green Monarch
mine, near Hope, and had prospected
in that part of the county for years.
Between June II and 10 both were shot
down and killed in the cabin The po-
sition of the bodies showed that they
did not have a chance to defend them
selves. One was reading when killed
and the other was at ease, sitting in
chair Between them there were Ave
shots in their bodies, fired from an
automatic gun of some kind. The muir
derer later placed the bodies on the
floor with their heads toward each
other and had partially covered them
with blanket. Blood spots outside of
the cabin showed that their faithful
dog had also been shot and had prob
ably wandered away into the timber to
die
So far as is known neither Of the
men had an enemy. 1t is considered
peculiar coincidence that one Of Ship
ley's brothers was shot down and killed
in a gambling Joint in Montana. Both
Shipley and Welch were old timers ana
during the early prospecting days of
Montana gambled. 1t has been thought
that possibly some one Of their former
associates in those days held grudge
against them and is responsible for the
double murder.
The first intimation that anything
was wrong at the cabin was when
neither of the men was seen about his
usual haunts in the vicinity Of their
cabin. Shipley had been seen a day
prior to June IT on the river and had
sent his dog, faithful! animal, into the
timber to bring down a deer An in
vestigation Of the locked cabin was
made and the bodies found The alarm
was Immediately given. Since then
every effort has been made to find the
murderer or murderers without success.

his case had come up for trial. Kraf-
chenko made a sensational escape from
the Winnipeg jail. Armed with an au-
tomato revolver which had been
smuggled in to him by friends the
bandit covered the two guards placed
in front OF his cell While holding the
guards with their arms over their
heads. he backed to a window and
swung out on a rope which had also
been struggled into his CELL
passer-by saw Krafchenko on the
street and ran to the other side OF the
building to spread the alarm. When
the officers rushed out, the bandit had
disappeared. For a week the police
searched in vain for the desperate. At
the end Of that time he was found con-
cealed in the room Of a friend almost
within a stones throw OF the prison
from which he had made his escape.
The official investigation of the es-
cape led to the arrest and indictment
of several persons on a charge of con-
spiracy to aid the bandit in gaining his
freedom. Among those concerned were
a member of Krafchenko's counsel and
one Of the jail guards. Two of those
who were convicted on the conspiracy
charge recently met their deaths in the
falling of a scaffold on which they
were at work in the prison.
Early last April Krafchenko was
taken to Morden, where he was tried.
convicted and sentenced to death. A
short time ago Justice T. G. Mathers,
who presided over Krafchenko's trial
and imposed the sentence Of death, sent
a recommendation to the department of
justice at ottawa that no leniency be
sko'"n in the bandits case.

sequently sent all the children to the
children's home for a period of one
month while the differences between
