But Alex Mcmillan Failed to Get His
Wish in Montpelier Court.

| Montpelier city court presented a bus
ier appearance this forenoon than IL has
for many a Monday, several intoxication
cases being disposed of and two cases in

Illegal selling being continued.

judged guilty Saturday afternoon after

grand Juror, A. C. Theriault, recommend
ed that he be sent to Waterbury for a
period of six months. Mcmillan notified
the court that he had new job in Barre

offender. The court observed that Barre.

be an ideal place for one who appeared
to be inclined to imbibe much too freely
on numerous occasions and Mcmillan was
sent to Waterbury for six months, after
a fine of SIS had been suspended.

laborer, who was arrested Saturday by
Officer Baldwin after he had tried to
take out a hunting license at the city

offense and was fined SIS and costs. He
had scant hopes of raising the money
but was given a chance to do so in the
custody of an officer.

A Villa Lieutenant Held Responsible for
Murder of II Americans.

Fl Paso, Tex, April 24.-Pablo Lopez
Villa lieutenant, held responsible for the
murder OF II Americans at Santa Ysabel
and who was shot through both legs in
the raid on Columbus, n. NJ. was cap
tured Saturday by Carranza forces near
the scene of his crime. according TO in
formation received yesterday by General
Babriel Gayira, commandant at Juarez.
This news was contained in messages
from the Mexican government operator
at Santa Ysabel, who said he had him
self seen Lopez. 1t was hoped informa-
tion regarding Villa might be obtained
from Lopez.
Three of Lopez followers were cap
tured with him, the four being taken in
a mountain cave where they had been in
hiding in starving condition. All are
being taken to Chihuahua City.
Residents of Santa Tomas also notified
General Gavira yesterday that their
town was attacked yesterday morning
by Manual Baea, recently reported killed
in an engagement with American sol
diers and Is other Villa bandits. They
said they defeated and scattered the ban
dts after. killing Baca and several 9th
ers.
The news from Washington that there
was no present intention TO withdraw
the troops from Mexico was received
with satisfaction by army officers here,
although they frankly admitted they
were puzzled by the wording of Secre
tary Bakers announcement. The words
pending an opportunity for further CO.
operation with the forces of the de facto
government" was particularly the sub
ect of discussion. The only cooperation
which will prove really effective in the
opinion of local officers is the use of the |
and they assume that Secretary |
Bakers statement means a halt in the |
Villa pursuit until the railroad question |

SETTLED THRICE
AND PAID S143.76
FOR FISHING
Two Disciples of Isaak Walton Fined
First for Fishing Out of Season, Next

Berlin, April %, via Copenhagen tc
London, April 24.-The imperial chancel-
lor, DR.. Won Bethmann Hollweg, returned
to Berlin this afternoon, which would
seem to justify the assumption that the
empires responsible leaders at great
headquarters have finished consideration
of the American note and reached a de-
cision concerning Germany's reply. What
this reply will be is naturally unknown
to any but the highest officials.
The chancellor's return, it is under
stood, was not expected until Tuesday,
hence general decision appears to have
been reached earlier than looked for.
There is no intimation of when the reply
will be formulated. but there seems to
be much significance in the fact that the
Lokal Anzieger, which is consistently
strength and prestige have so increased
in the last 20 months in the eyes of the
whole world that the German govern
ment has, indeed only to follow the
commandments of wisdom"
The obvious deduction. according to
the view here, is that there is nothing to
prevent Germany from making certain
concessions if the leaders feel that they
can properly do so. Whether they do
feel that they can go thus far is, of
course, another question.
There is unquestionably a consider
able peace party in Germany, which in
cludes powerful financial interests repre-
sented by the Bourse organs and the
Frankfurter Zeitung, and including also
the Berlin Tageblatt and Socialist or
gans. Certain high officials, also, would
consent to breach or war with the
United States only most reluctantly and
under pressure of what seemed to them
an unavoidable necessity.
