CHIHUAHUA CITY
MENACED BY VILLA
Bandit Leader Said to Have Seven
Thousand Men and His Force Daily
Increasing by Carranza Deserters.

Ell Paso, Texas, Nov. 6.-The As
sociated Press correspondent at Chi
huahua City, who reached the border
last night, was informed before leav-
ing Chihuahua City that DR.. Encar-
nacion Brondo Whit, the physician of
Guerrero, Chihuahua, who has been
made prisoner by Villa and forced to
treat the bandits wounded leg, was in
Guerrero Saturday in charge of Villas
temporary field hospital. DR.. Brodo
Whit is Mexican, not British sub
Ject. He was reported recently by
refugees from Chihuahua City as hav-
ing been killed by Villa bandits. 1t
was reported today to the German
consul at Juarez Belgian subject
had been killed in Santa Rossa!ia by
Villa forces, but this was not con-
firmed. A Spaniard, ,swho arrived from
Chihuahua City last night, claimed to
have confirmation of the report that
DR.. G. H. Fischer, an aged and
wealth American physician at Santa
Rosalia, had been stabbed to death by
Villa bandits. State department
agents received information from Chi
huahua City today that merchants in
that city were shipping supplies to
the border at Juarez for fear they
would be captured by Villa should he
enter the town.
Other refugees reaching the border
assert that Villa holds practically
everything in the state of Chihuahua
save the capital.
Seven thousand is considered by
these refugees to be conservative
rstlmate of the number of men Villa
has. Carranza soldiers, refugees say,
are joining Villa daily.
The arrival here of Mrs. Enriuuez,
mother of former Governor Agnica
Enriquez, of Chihuahua, has caused
Mexicans having relatives in Chihua-
hua City to telegraph them to come
to the border.

TO HOLD
POSTOFFICE JOB?
Signs That He Will Not Be Ousted.
Suggested That He May Garry His
Opposition Before House of
Representatives..

Washington, Nov. 6.-Developments
which have been awaited here for
some time in the Greenville postoffice
matter and which, so far, have failed
to materialize, tend to make more au-
thentic rumors recently heard that
ID. b. Traxler, postmaster, will con-
tinue to enjoy all the rights, privi-
leges and emoluments of the office un-
til his commission expires, something
like two years hence.
At the postoffice department it is
very difficult to secure a direct state
ment as to what course is being Dur
sued to ascertain whether or not Mr..
Traxler has been guilty of "pernicious
activity" as alleged by Representative
Sam j. Nichols, when he saw A. S.
Burleson, postmaster general, about
the matter short time ago. 1t has,
however, been persistently rumored
here that when Mr.. Traxler rendered
his resignation as postmaster, subse-
nently withdrawing it, he acted in
the latter instance with the depart
ments consent, and there is nothing
the department can do in the way of
penalizing him without admitting that
the officials themselves were at fault.
and that this will not be done.
To make long story short, so far
as the ousting of Mr.. Traxler is con-
cerned at the hands of Mr.. Burleson,
about all has been done that can be
done, if rumors are reliable. This
means that the large number of can
dldates who were hoping to step in
MIR. Traxler's shoes must bide their
time and wait two years for their po-
litlcal appetites to be appeased.
1t Is not likely that the president
will raise row with his postmaster
general regarding the appointment of
an official to any particular offence, it
being fully recognized that such func-
tions are, as matter of course. strict
in the hands of the various depart
that unless a real wrong has been
done their actions stand.
Should Mr.. Nichols "take the mat
ter to congress-" he will probably in
troduce resolution in the house call
ing upon the postmaster general to
send to the house, should the same
be compatible with the public inter-
est, all information and data concern
ing the matter. Then what will Mr..
Burleson do? He will inform the
house that he will do no such thing.
MIR. Burleson has been a member of
the house and knows all the rules,
customs, precedents and regulations
and If he has made up his mind that
Mr. Iraxler is to remain postmaster
at Greenville until his time is out
then there he will remain unless
something not now seen should hap
pen. Mr.. Burleson when he takes a
notion to do a thing or not to do a
thing is as stubborn as a stable full
of Kansas mules.
1t is recognized here that the way
the Greenville situation has been
manipulated is entirely irregular and
likely to cause much confusion and
misunderstanding should this particu-
lar case be taken as precedent, but
unless congress can find some way of
making Mr.. Burleson reconsider his
action in permitting Mr.. Traxler to
withdraw his resignation, the latter
stands good to hold his place until
his commission expires.

SAYS WOMEN WERE-BURNED.

FL Paso, Nov. IA Mexican refu-
gee from Chihuahua City who ar
rived here last night brought the re-
port that Villa bandits had soaked the
hair of two Mexican< women in oil
and had burned them at Santa Rosalia
on October 26. The refugee claimed
to have talked with an eye witness of
the tragedy. He also reported Gen
Uribe, Villa commander, had declared
at Santa Rosalia that he intended to
kill all Americans and Chinese caught
by his forces.
