The report of General Trevino. as
 made public by Mr. Arredondo fol-
 lows:
 On Monday, at 1:15 a. m.. special
 tram number 1 left Chihuahua for Cusichuriachic, arriving at Santa
 fsabel at l. 15 D. m and started from there and upon arriving at Fort Kil- ometer 6S. west of Santa Ysabe, it
 found another train of the National
 Railways hauled by engine number
 90l, derailed. Upon persons alighting
 from their train, to see what had occurred, they saw armed men on
 both sides of the road who were fir ing upon them. after which a so- called general named Reina. ordered that the crew be put under guard. He then robbed all the passengers, footing the contents of the cars and express. The murderers followed. "On the same day of the above in cident the general headquarters or dered that a regiment embark at once under the command of Colonel Jose Nillanucva to start ir the direction of Santa Ysabel with instructions to pursue the bandits and endeavor to get in touch with General Cdvazos. | commander of the detachment at Bustilios. Cusichurachio and san An tonic, wno was watching the move | ments of the enemy which had as- saulted the train.
 The bandits upon observing the
 movements of the constitutionalist forces ln all directions. retreated to a place called Carretas. according to the information in hand. scattering | in small groups towards the west and south, presumably in the direction of the mountains of Durango. If any in formation is secured that new bands have appeared in the mountain range they will be localized by our forces and will be hunted down without rest | in orGer to prevent their concentration at any given point.
 l Military headquarters at Juarez informed this general headouarters
 that our Sarrisons at Pearsons, Casas Grandes and Madeira had been in
 creased. With this combined move
 ment of our forces ir two divisions 1 along both sides of the Northwestern
 railways, it will be an easy matter to
 keep all bands which may appear
 away from the place. compelling them
 either to disperse or intern themselves
 on the western slopes of the Sierra Madres, where they will be unable to 1 find any means of sustenance." | State department officials tonight denied published statements that the department has secured assurances of safe conduct for the Americans killed near Santa Ysabel It was said no request was made for such assUr-

FIVE PER CENT ROAD
 BONDS SELL AT 98.65

Texarkana, May 2O.-The commits sioners of the Miller county bridge and highway improvement district have sold at auction $234,OO worth of road bonds at 98.65. The Mer- chants and Planters Bank and the Texarkana Savings and Trust Com pany, both local concerns, were the purchasers.
 The bonds run serially for 15 years and bear five per cent interest. The money will be used for the construc- tion of 60 miles of good roads radiat- ing out of Texarkana to points east and southeast, one of the lines to cross Red River near Fulton and con- meet with other good roads to Hope and Little Rock.
 During the day injunction proceed ings were filed to stay the building of the roads, but it is not believed this action will result in anything more serious than little possible de lay.

MfFTINC MONDAY
 10 DISCUSS ROAD
CONWAY TO SALTIlLO
Citizens Called to Gather at Court house and Discuss Building Per-
 manent Highway.

For the purpose of discussing the proposition of building a permanent highway from Saltillo, eight miles
 southeast, to Conway, meeting will be held at the courthouse in this city
 Monday night at 7:3O o'clock. The
 meeting was called today by E. F. Park, a merchant of Saltillo, and others interested in the project. It is the intention of those inter- ested in the matter to organize an inn provement district under the Alexan- der act and issue bonds for the pur- pose of building the road. The pro- jected highway runs through a well populated and progressive farming community and is much-traveled road. Passing through the Palarm creek bottom, it's condition becomes very bad during rainy seasons. The citizens of the community are said to be very much interested in the pro- posed road and most of them enthu- siastically favor it.
 At Monday nights meeting speak CTS will explain the provisions of the Alexander act, under which the dis trict may be organized, and will also give data as to the probable cost of the improvement.
 Citizens of Vilonia and the country between that flourishing little town and Conway are also reported to be greatly interested in a proposition to permanently improve the road known as the Beebe road, distance of about IA miles. A number of these citizens are also expected to attend the meet ing here and it is considered possible that those living on the two roads may unite to form a single district, as the cost of supervision would thus be lessened and the bonds sold to a better advantage in a large rather than small issue.
