OF Terlingua, Texas, where there Is a
guard Of about 30 men
From there they proceeded eastward
through the desolats reaches of the Big
Bend country, over an old wagon road
toward Glenn Springs, = smafl ranch
settlement.
A few miles west of Glenn Springs
an American patrol of eight men from
Troop A of the Fourteenth cavalry, un-
der command of Sergt Smith, was sta
toned. The bandits began an attack
on the little temporary shack in which
the eight troops were quartered before
the single sentinel could raise alarm.
The time was about IL o'clock.
The attackers rushed toward the
shack. shouting "viva Villa" and
viva Carranzai" They were met by
a sturdy defense from the half asleep
Americans. however. and failed in
their evident attempt to make a quick
capture of the patrol guard.
From IL o'clock that night until aft
er 2 O'Clock in the morning Sergt.
Smith fought the Mexicans from the
shelter Of the patrol house. In that
time three of his men-Privates Cohen,
Coloe and Rogers-had been killed
and he and all the rest were wounded.
Then the shack caught fire. 1t was
impossible to stay longer, SO Sergt.
Smith ordered a retreat.
Two Of his men were so badly
wounded 1t was necessary to carry
them. Smith and the other men sue
ceeded In removing the badly wound
ed and took out the bodies of the three
dead men and carried them to place
OF safety.
There was motor truck attached
to the. camp. The dead and dangerous
ly wounded men were loaded into t:.is
and sent toward Marathon, station on
the Southern Pacific, IS miles north.
One man accompanied the truck.
This left Smith and two others to en-
gage the bandits. They retreated to
the Low Hills and fought from behind
rocks and mounds of gravel.
While this was going on, ranchmen
of the vicinity heard the shooting
and hurried to the scene. Although
few in number, they formed an ade.
quate reinforcement, and about four
O'Clock, as dawn neared, the Mexicans
retreated.
This was five hours after the fight
ing began. The bandits rode toward
the east until they came to Glenn
Springs. There they looted a general
store and killed the 10-year-old son of
C. G. Compton. Then they proceeded
to Boquillas, few miles north of the
Rio Grande. where they seized sup
plies and forage and rode on again.
Their next stop was Deemers. Here.
according to the reports received in
Ell Paso, they looted the general store
of John Deemers. Then they crossed
back into Mexico, taking with them
Deemers and Louis Coyer, man in
his employ.
1t is believed that Deemer and Coyer
were killed after being taken to the
Mexican side.

need of better regulation than was
being afforded through the operation
of commission rule
Several Of the aldermen took shot
at the fact that the Kenosha Electric
Railway Company had not removed
abandoned tracks from South and West
Main streets and the council will take
some final action on this matter after
the aldermen have been more fully ad-
vised on the question by the city
attorney. A majority Of the members
Of the council seemed to favor the
removal of the tracks.
The committee on railways and trans

Company with the understanding that
portion of the. expense of opening
the street is to be charged to the prop
erty owners The recommendation was
adopted by the council.
