Victim Still Alive But Doctors
Say He Cannot Possibly
Recover
SHOT WHEN HE REFUSED
TO LIBERTE BROTHER
Both Well Armed and Ii Is
Thought They VIII Fight
Until Killed

Auburn, Cal, April -Bloodhounds
were placed today ON the trail of James
and Albert Cox who last night shot and
probably fatally wounded Constable f..
II. Dependence ON the court house steps.
The constable was shot because he re-
fused to release Arthur Cox, another
brother, held on a misdemeanor charge.
Dependerer was still alive this morning
but local surgeons and doctors brought
from Sacramento held out little hops
for his recovery.
George Cox, brother of the hunted
men, believes they will fight to the
death. Both are well armed More
than 100 hOrsemen have joined in the
hunt. The foothills around this city
are alive with riflemen, searching every
cave and gully, holding their weapons
ready for instant use.
Having a premonition of evil, De-
penderer made his win a few days ago
bequeathing his large estate to two lit
tie daughters.
Accounts of the shooting were some
what different today. Some claimed
the constable mad agreed and was on
his way to release Arthur Cox when he
was attacked II is certain that he
lodged behind a post and fired four
shots before bullet from one of the
Cox boys hit his hand, crippling it.
In their wild flight through town
while citizens were rushing from church
to get their guns and join the hunt,
the fugitves fired three shots at a
barber named Richardson who crossed
their path.
All the railroads are guarded and it
is not thought possible for the fugitiyes
to have reached a train. They may be
hiding in the brush somewhere between
Opir and Lincoln. If they reached the
Cox cabin on Soda ranch during the
night, officers believe they may have
rifles in addition to their revolvers,
Roy Cox has a motorcycle in Sacra-
mento, it was stated, which he may en-
deavor to reach.
There are five brothers in the Cox
family, Dave lives in Los Angeles, They
originally came from Oklahoma.

volt threatened by generals opposed TO

lieved falling behind. Villa obtained
fresh mounts at Parral With his great
knowledge of the mountain trails, his
chances of eluding the pursuers for an
indefinite period are considered good.
While official Mexican adviees s,i,i
insist that Villa is wounded, James
Hamilton, British refugee from Par
raj, said he had absolutely authentic
word from Mexican miners that the o.,.-
law is unhurt. Hamilton who is ar-
quainted with the Candida district, said
he thought Villa was practically safe
from capture there.
