release of DR.. Smith and the Villa
band was forced to liberate the Amer

the ransom could be made, e. Munson
reported after his return from a par
ley with a Villa commander, accord
ing to a report brought to the border
here late last night by an American
mining man who was present when
Munson made his report.
Munson stated at Santa Eulalia.
upon his return from meeting the
rebels that they at first declined to
accept the $4,000, insisting that the
ransom was $4,000 (gold) and not six
thousand pesos or $4,000. 1t was
finally accepted, however, upon the
understanding that the remainder was
to be taken to a point between Picha-
cho Peaks and Rancho Alamitos at
noon yesterday and DR.. Smith re-
leased at that time, according to the
agreement.
While Munson was at the rebel rem
devious he had a long talk with Ruiz,
the Villa captain. He told Munson he
and his command were in the battle Of
Juarez, June 1916, but said neither he
nor his chief had any bitter feelings
against Americans or the American
government because United States
troops crossed to Juarez and drove
them away, Munson stated upon his
return to Santa Eulalia.
According to MunsOn's report of his
talk with Ruiz, the Villa captain said:
my chief (Villa) does not blame
the Americans for crossing to Juarez
during the battle for possession OF
the town. The Carranza troops we're
doing the firing Into El Paso and the
Villa forces were careful not to fire
across the line.
