Nenustiano Cauanza is being reached,
fear was expressed here today that com
plications might result involving the
ownership OF 100000 pesos in Caran-
"a currency, smuggled across the border
to Iuarez Saturday by Villas agents.
The currency was shipped here from
Washington, where it was printed. 1t
arrived by express Friday night in
charge Of Captain Santiago Winfield.
Villas agents evaded an injunction
procession secured by Felicitas Villa
real, Caranza's treasury agent and
smuggled the currency across.
Robert V. Pesquiera, confidential
agent OF General Larranza, today noti-
fed Villa telling him of the matter. He
also sent letter to Colonel Tomas
Orenelas at Juarez, denouncing the ac-
tion OF officials who participated in the
smuggling and asking that those impli-
Gated be arrested. BE accused Winfield.
The letter said in part "As the acts OF
Winfield and his accomplices and con-
federates are criminal in their nature
and are certainly violations of the law
1 consider that it is your sworn duty
to arrest them Immediately.
1T is hard for me to believe that
General Villa or any other honorable
military commander would sanction OF
acquiesce silently in such unlawful acts. p
It is learned here that warrants have
been issued at Washington for the ar
rest of prominent Constitutionalist of
iicers in connection with the smuggling

BELIEVE GAME WAS

A plot to attract employees Of the

SO that thieves could steal the thous-
ands of dollars taken ia on Saturday
on the company's lines is seen by the
police and company officials in the mys-
terious runaway of two trolley cars
about o'clock yesterday morning One
OF the ears was found more than a
mile from the barn at sixth and Harri-
son streets, where it was on fire, and the
other was found at Sixth and Madison
streets. nearly two miles away, where
it had stopped after wild flight down
the Sixth street hill from Broome
street.
The cars had been standing on the
main line near the barn, and. to get to
the Sixth street line. they had TO cross
a switch which always is kept locked
10 turn cars into the Woodlawn ave
nue line. II Is believed whoever start
ed the cars planned 20 have the carbarn
employees run after them, thereby leaV-
inc the Offices unguarded, and then ac-
cess would have been comparatively
easy
The crews had turned in all their cars
for the night. and Night Dispatcher
Cook was finishing mp the business OF
the day when the police by telephone
told him one of the cars was at sixth
and Harrison streets ON fire and the
other at Sixth and Madison streets
without a crew. "Not our cars Cook
repied. "All our cars are in the barn
The police insisted, however, and Mas.
ter Mechanic McCleary was summoned
and sent to the scene.
An investigation showed that one car
had been slowly started and had push
ed another ahead of It along sixth
street The first one ran away when
II topped the hill at Broome street and
travelled at express-train speed until II
struck the incline at Sixth and Madison
streets. The car ON which the current
lad been partly turned ON caught lire
AZ Sixth and Harrison strets and stop
ned there when the machinery lammed
rs result. The cars had been stand
inc at the barn some time before they
were started away, and the police are
satisfied someone opened the controller
with no other view than to attract men
from the Offices and thereby give them
an opportunity 10 rob the place.
