 MAY FREE HUERTA.
 FL PASO, July 5.-There is a strong probability that Huerta, who is held here under Sl5,O00 bonds, charged with attempting to incite a revolt against a foreign country on American soil, will be liberated to- day.

Huerta is loud in his dew citation of the off cials here, and is very restless and unhappy in jail.
 BONDS CONDITIONAL.
 FL PASO, July 6.-Friends of General Huerta have informed off cials of the government that they are ready to furnish the bonds de- manded for the Mexican's release. but they want the government to promise that Huerta will not be re- arrested on additional charges or kept under surveillance while he is at liberty.
