Inc appearance OF Frederick B. Alex

A MEXICAN EXILE

Each evening at sunset, an old man
with silver-white hair and snowy
beard may be seen walking around
and around the plaza taking his dai
ly exercise with his two body guards
He is General Luis Terrazas, the &C.
togenarian exile from Mexico who lost
virtually all his great fortune in the
revolution Of Madero and Villa and
now is forced by politician conditions
in the country to live on the border
When the Madero revolution started
n 1911 Don Louis" was known as
the cattle king of Mexico. His herds
numbered more than 100000 head and
grazed on a thousand hills and plains
OF Northern Mexico His estates
reached from the Rio Grande to Chi
huahua City and he could ride for "a
hours by train over his own acres,
which then numbered more than a mil
lion.
From his offices in the state cap
ital, General Terrazas governed this
vast cattle empire, conducted a bank
and many other industries connected
with his cattle business. He and his
large family lived in luxury in the
marble palace on the Alamada or at
Qunta Carolina, his summer home on
the plains Train after train of cat
razas ranches. His annual export av-
eraged $4,000 head and the "T-Run-
ning-S" brand was we'll known at the
Chicago, Kansas City and Fort Worth
stcckyards as it was in Mexico.
The Terrazas holdings were esti-
estimated to be worth $5,000000 dol
lars (old) but were not for sale at
any price.
Now General Terrazas and his fam
lily live in rented house on Golden
Hill, he rides to his office in an old
automobile and buys his groceries
from a cash and carry store.
The revoMtionists under Maders,
Orozco and other leaders killed the
Terrazas cattle for food, burned his
ranch buildings and looted his stores
and warehouses. Then Francisco vii
Ia acting as commander in the north
for General Carranza issued a decree
conflscating all the Terrazas holdings
including the herds, houses lands and
personal property. General Terrazas
was Forced to flee from Mexico before
Villas advance on Chihuahua from
Jaurez. He made the long trip ito the
border at Ojinaga with the fleeing
federal column in December, 1917.
He has never returned to Mexico.
On July % last, General Terrazas eel
ebrated his seth birthday anniversary
surrounded by his ten sons, rs grand
children and many more relatives.
He maintains an Office down town
where he attends to his private bust
ness affaires daily and he keeps in
close touch with cattle and market
conditions.
1t is his dream to be permitted to
return to his native land with suffici-
ent guarantees to allow him to begin
over again to reestablish the Terra
zas fortune.
