REMOVE HuERTA.

The FL PasO Times has repeatedly
and earnestly requested the Federal
authorities 10 remove Huerta from
III Paso. calling attention TO the cir.
cumstance that his presence so near
the border is an invitation TO blood
shed and violence through possible
efforts OF misguided Mexicans TO I'M
dertake the foolhardy task OF rescu'
ing him from Fort Bliss, as well as a
menace 10 the peace and safety OF
that city. II Is correct In its insist
ence that the old Indian should be
removed 10 San Antonio. which not
only has the advantage Of being far
Their from the border. but Is fully pro-
tected by troops at Fort Sam Houston.
As the case against Huerta is set
for trial In San Antonio in December,
there appears to be every reason why
he should be transferred to that city
and none why he should not. It is hoped
that the Federal authorities may rec
ognize the imperative necessity OF
Immediately taking necessary action
before serious trouble results.-Aus.

Monday.

Brownsville. Tex, Sept. IA. - The
bodies OF three Mexicans were found
today at different points following
yesterdays resumption OF hostilities
along the border. Two OF the bodies
were found more than twenty miles
from the scene OF Mondays fight with
soldiers. and II is not believed they
belonged to that gang A third body
loated past Brownsville chained 10 a
tree trunk. II Is not known whether
MeNicans or Americans killed this
one.
The finding OF two canteens today
near the scene OF Mondays fight In
which one soldier was killed and two
wounded. traces back to the fight OF
August 3. when soldiers lost them In
a fight with Mexicans. 1t is believed
the same gang had done much depre-
dalton in this section.
