Carranza Troops Join Villa


Douglas. AriZ., March 23-Rcports

Mexican troops had been seen by
the United States soldier observers
marching iutO Aqua pricta from the
southeast early this afternoon, coup
ed with apparent VerilicatiOn from
sources in the Mexican jown, usual
ly reliable, served to arouse much
apprehension here tonight This
sudden hocking to the border, in
connection with the detection of
Herrera, is believed TO be a serious
menace to the American forces.
Gen. p Elias Gales, military gov
crnor of Sonora, stated, however,
that no troops had arrived; that on
the other hand $50 of the 500 men
stationed there had been sent to Ca
bullOna, eighteen miles south, today.
In Douglas civil circles the appar-
ent inactivity Of the military in pa
trolling the city was the chief cause
of uneasiness. 1t is currently re-
ported that the American troops are
under orders TO make no move
which would serve TO indicate to the
de facto forces that the slightest ap-
prehension is felt here.

MARTINEZ SUCGUMBS AFTER
BRIEF SIEGE or PNEUMONIA
Wcll-knOMn Statesman and Finan-
cicr and One of Southwcst'S
Most Able Citizens

III Paso, March 22-FeliX Martin
~. one of the wca;thiest and most
prominent citizens OF I'll Paso. died
at his home in the city at i:20 O'clock
this afternoon after an illness of
about a week from pneumonia.
The condition of Mr. Martinez be
came critical during the day Tues
day. and physicians held out little
hope for his recovery. His death
this afternoon, while sudden, was
not unexpected in view of the de-
velopments in the progress of the
disease.
The funeral was held in El Paso
Friday.
Had Distinguished Career
The death of Felix Martinez re-
moves from the stage of life one of
the really noted figures of the south
west and one who has played a con-
spicuous part in the development of
this section. As a statesman and a
ilnancier he had few equals, and
his loss will be felt nowhere more
keenly than in his native state of
New Mexico, which was the beneii-
ciary of some of his ablest efforts.
Mr. MARTINEZ was born in Taos on
the 2Sth day Of March, 1851, and was
therefore only a week short of 50
years Of age at the time of his death.
He was the son of Felix I and Reyes
CQrdONa Martinez. and was des-
cendant of General Felix Martinez,
who was governor of New Mexico in
l1l5. He was educated by private
teachers and in the private schools
of Mora and Denver, ana was recog-
nized by all who knew him as a
profound scholar and student of
public affairs.
On September u, 1880, Mr. Mar
tineZ was married tu aiiss Virginia
Buster in Las Vegas. AID for some
time afterwards was engaged in
mercantile business in Las Vegas. In
1886 he sold out his mercantile bus
mess and went into the real estate
business in Las Vegas. In 1897 he
moved to FL paso. where he imme-
diately took an active part in the
business life of the city, but at all
times he retained his legal residence
in Las Vegas and was always a DOM
inant factor in the politics of that
section of New Mexico. He was one
of the organizers of the FL PasO
chamber Of Commerce and was
prominently identified with numer-
GUS public enterprises in that city,
including the waterworks, the street
railway system and the erection of
the new terminal station.

the question.
This is probably the biggest prair-

of sheep that were grazing on the
mountain it is probable that some
were lost Lecardo Martinez and
