HELENA MAN, WHO
 KILLED WIFE, IS SUED BY CHILDREN
Supreme Court, in Revers- ' ing Case, Upholds Right
 of Married Women.

Little Rock, May 29.-The estate and children of Mrs. F. M. Owens, who was killed by her husband, from whom she was estranged, may sue F. M. Owens for damages, according to a decision of the supreme court today, which reversed decision of the Phil lips circuit court and remanded for further proceedings an action for $75, ,000 against F. M. Owens, former ly in the saloon business at Helena.
 The shooting occurred in Helena August 15, 1915. Owens has been in- dicted, and has not been tried on the criminal charge.
 After the death of Mrs. Owens, c. s. Fitzpatrick, who was appointed ad- ministrator of Mrs. Ovens estate, brought suit in behalf of the state and the six children. The suit on behalf of the estate asked $5O,OOO from Owens, and the children asked a judg- ment of $25,000 from their father. The supreme courts decision upheld the validity of the law enacted by the last legislature removing the disabil- ities of married women, giving them the power to sue and be sued.
 When the suit was filed in the lower court demurrer on the grounds that the right of action on the part of either the administrator or the next in kin was not set forth. The de- murrer was sustained. The decision of the supreme court was called upon to determine whether woman may maintain an action against her hus- band to recover damages for acts committed by him, and the supreme court, acting under the act of the last legislature, held that she did. The verdict of the lower court in sustain ing the demurrer was reversed, with instructions to overrule the demurrer and for further proceedings.
 At the time of the death of Mrs. Owens, who was shot, she and the de- fendant in the damage suit were sep arated, but not divorced.

 Lower House.

Washington, May 29.-Majority Leader Kitchin made his promised speech in behalf of the naval appro- priation bill in the house today.

Carranza's Agent Reaches Washington, But Says He
 Didn't Bring Note.
PABLO LOPEZ WILL
 BE SHOT TUESDAY
TreyinO Announces Date for Execu- ton of Villas Chief Lieutenant, TampicO Oil Men Protest to Wash.
 ington Against Carranza Tactics.

Washington, May 29-The state de- partment officials were somewhat mvstified today over failure of the new note from General Carranza to reach the department or the Mexican embassy. The departments advices indicated that it was to be expected yesterday. Manuel Mendez, the for eign attache from Mexico City, who was supposed to be acting as special messenger, arrived here today, but de- clared he had no knowledge of the note, and merely came to Washington on vacation.
 Eliseo Arrendondo, Mexican ambas- sador designate, said that none of his messages from the foreign department contained any reference to the note.
 Word that the note was coming, and that it probably would renew the question of the suggestion that Amer lcan troops be withdrawn from Mex ico, reached the department last week. Mr. Arrendondo had no ap- pointment at the state department to- day, and as tomorrow is holiday, it is certain the note will not be pre- sented until Wednesday, should it ar rive tonight or tomorrow.
 Oil Men Protest.
 Protest of S4 American operators in the Tampico region against decrees of the de facto government, affecting their work, is still awaiting considera- tion at the state department. It was received at the white house and re- ferred to Secretary Lansing. Navy advices reported quiet at Tampico. The seizure of several American owned tank cars has been the only disquieting incident in that section that has been officially reported.
 Rumors transmitted by border mili- tary commanders as matters of in- formation, said 22,000 Carranza troops were mobilized near Chihuahua City. Officials here showed little in- terest in the rumors.
 Another rumor said Mexico City papers quoted Gen Luis Herrera as saying he was ready to attack the Americans if they did not withdraw from Mexico before June 1.
 Special Agent R. Rodgers has not mentioned this report. Herrera is the officer whose alleged revolt precipi- tated many alarming reports at the time of the Columbus raid.
 DduulI DduuS NedT FerSnlnR.
 Columbus, N. M., May 29.-Reports brought here by arrivals from the interior said that number of small bands of bandits have been encamped in the rear of General Pershing's rear post.
 One report placed them within 15 miles of the American column. At military headquarters nothing was known of the report, which, it was pointed out, may have originated with the movement of the Carranza troops pursuing the bandits in the vicinity of the American camp.
