SEEK HUERTA'S EXTRACTION
Villa Governor Of Chihuahua Makes
Request Of Texas Governor-Ac-
cuses Dictator Of Murder.

Washington, July 3. - Formal re-
quest for the extradition of General
Victoriano Huerta on various crimi-
nal charges has been presented to
Governor Ferguson of Texas by the
Villa governor of Chihuahua state.
This latest complication in the
status of the former Mexican dictator
facing prosecution at Ell Paso for al
legged violation of American neutrality
laws. was brought to the attention of
the federal government by Governor
Ferguson, who forwarded the Mexican
governors request to the state de-
partment. Secretary Lansing referred
the matter to Solicitor Johnson for
consideration.
So long as Huerta is wanted by the
department of justice the charges pre-
ferred by federal agents will take pre-
cedence and until they are disposed of
it is not expected that the extradition
question will be decided.
Both the Villa and Carranza factions
charge that Huerta was implicated in
the murder of President Madero and
Vice President Suarez, which followed
the overthrow of the Madero admins
tration and Huerta's assumption of
power.

When the courier started, practical

lacking Carranza forces under General
Pablo Gonzales. Gonzales had been
driven back with considerable loss and
was waiting for re-enforcemeuts from
Vera Cruz before renewing the as

No mention was made of attacks on
foreigners, so officials assumed they
were safe. Many stores had been
