LUMBER LOADED
FORD GOES DOWN
WITH BRIDGE
Driver Has Narrow Escape in
Accident in WOodford
STRUCTURE is WRECKED
Both Bridge and Abutments Near
Camp Comfort Collapsed Under
Heavy Load
STRUCTURE is WRECKED

H. II. Kenney, superintendent, and
another employe OF the Plunkett-
Webster company had a narrow es-
cape from injury and perhaps death
early Monday afternoon when the
companys Ford car and trailer went
down with the bridge near the Camp
Comfort property in the town Of
Woodford
The superintendent and his helper
were coming toward Bennington with
n load of two-inch plank. The outfit
had nearly crossed the bridge when
the entire structure. abutments and
all, collapsed. The trailer spilled its
load OF lumber TO one side but the
car landed almost in a perpendicular
position with the frcnt wheels near the
top Of the shattered abutment. The
engine continued to run after the
bridge had gone down.
The bridge originally rested on
stone masonry abutments at least
twelve feet above the rocky course OF
the mountain stream and it is mys-
terry how the two men on the car es-
capped with their lives. Had the heavy
planking moved forward instead of to
one side Mr.. Kenny, who was driving,
could not have escaped
1t IS probable that the bridge will
be replaced with new one for which
concrete abutments will be built. It
may also be further strengthened
with a pier in the center OF the
stream

VILLA REVOLT
IS { VI T EP Nc
OVER MEXICO
Movement Is Spreading Towards
Chihuahua
SUPPLIES ARE SEIZED
Mayor Herrera And Two Sons Are
Haneed-ParroI Has Been
Captured
SUPPLIES ARE SEIZED

Washington, May 5.--A new revolu-
tionary movement against the Carran-
"a government has been started by
Francisco Villa. Parral, Jiminez,
and Bustilla, in Central and Southern
Chihuahua, have been captured by
him. He is planning to extend his
operations toward the cities of Chi
huahua and Torreon as early objec-
tives, according TO information that
reached the State Department today.
Before entering Paral the advices
said, Villa sent word to Mayor Her
rera, telling him that he and his
sons would be hanged when Villa en-.
tered the town.
When the Villistas entered Parral,
the CarranZa garrison went over to
the side of the revolutionists, and
Mayor Herrera and two of his sons
were hanged. 1t was explained here
that this was Villas method of deal
ing with the Herreras for their atti-
tude toward him after the battle Of
Celaya, in which he was beaten by
Obregon.
General Maclovio Herrera. a son Of
the Mayor OF Parral, was the man to
whom Villa gave command of the
Zaragosa brigade in 1914. during the
revolution against the old regime in
Mexico. But when Villa lost the bat
tie of Celaya, and Carranza's star of
destiny rose, Mayor Herrera and two
OF his sons turned against the revolu-
tion and embraced the Carranza
cause subsequently, it was said, the
father induced Maclovio Herrera TO
desert Villa, who was believed to
have lost his strength in Northern
Mexico
Villa has been planning his present
revolution for months and there are
indications. according to advices now
received in Washington, that the re-
newed attack is developing into a
formidable factor in the Mexican stu
alton. Many believe the movement
will hasten the downfall of Carranza,
and that within another month all of
Northern Mexico will be in revolt
against the present Mexican Govern
ment.
According to the informition re-
ceived here, Villa held off launching
his revolt until after Carranza had i'm
ported a considerable quantity OF
arms and ammunition into Mexico and
until some of these munitions had
been sent into Chihauhau. The revo
lutionary leader is reported to have
captured considerable quantities oi
this ammunition. resorting to the
same tactics used when he and Car
rama were together engaged against
the Huerta regime. He is also de
pending now upon the revolt of Car
rama garrisons and deseruons o.
Carranza soldiers in Chihauhau.
