FIRING SQUAD PUT THREE VOL
LEYs INTO COL. GARCIA AND
TWO COMPANIONS.
VETERAN PLEADS FOR HIS LIFE
Given Time to Write to His
Family-Asked to Be Shot
Two Mercy Shots Fired.

Ell Paso, Texas.-Colonel Rosario
Garcia, Villa commander from Sono-
ra, and two of his men were execut-
ed in Juarez Saturday, after being
convicted by a military court on the
charges of treason. They were cap
tured at Hacienda, Santa Ana.
Colonel Garcia weakened when the
moment of death came. After march
of a guard of IL Carranza soldiers
and an officer Colonel Garcia asked
permission to write a last letter to
his family in Sonora.
Writes Long Letter.
Seated on log in front of the sex
toms house the Villa commander
wrote a long letter, which he read
aloud to the group of witnesses. In
this statement he declared he was
not Villa bandit, but was a con-
stitutionalist, and said he had been
forced to carry papers to Villa.
Tied to Colonel Garcia were two
others of his command. One was a
beardless boy of II years, who lick
ed his dry lips continually and wiped
the tears from his eyes with a soiled
handkerchief The other was a Ma
20 Indian in denim, who sat and
smoked a cigarette while Garcia
wrote the statement.
After delivering this statement to
the officer Colonel Garcia made an
impassioned plea for his life in a
voice which broke with emotion and
ended with a request that his family
be cared for after his death.
Shoot me through the heart" he
said, sitting down in front Of an
adobe wall, pockmarked with the bull.

boy next to him also sat. while the
Indian squatted against the wall smo

Executioners' Aim Poor.
The execution squad fired. Garcia
and his companions rocked violently
from the force of the fusilade. Gar
cias knees doubled up with pain. He
motioned to his heart and begged the
squad to fire again. This was done
deliberately, while the bandit com
mander's body quivered in the agony
of his wounds. The second volley
failed to end his suffering and it was
not until the captain of the guard
had fired two mercy shots" point
blank at his head that the bandits
body stilled.
A mercy shot" each dispatched
the boy bandit and the Indian, the
boy still clutching his soiled hand
