JuareZ, Mex. Nov. 244.--Relterat- ing his enmity to President Carran- ga, but eXp1 essing confidence that justice will be meted out to him, General Felipe Angeles, the V;iia leader, captured recently near Par ral, Chihuahua, was brought to trial before court martial at Chihuahua City today. The hearing will last at least thlee or four days, it was said.
 Three thousand tickets to the trial were issued by General Manuel M. Dieguez, commander of military op- erations in Northern Mexico. accofu- ing to report brought here tonight by newspaper man of Chihuahua City.
 On his arrival at the state capital, General Angeles found awaiting him a telegram from Mrs. Angeles, who with her children, is in New York.
 "Whatever may happen to me-" the rebel leader is quoted as saying, q do not have to worry about my fam- fly, because Mrs. Angeles and the children are provided for"
 In a telegram to General Dieguez, Mrs. Angeles asked that her husband be given every attention "so that he will not suffer-"
 Angeles presented as strange an appearance as could be imagined aft CT his capture" the Chihuahua newspaper man, who interviewed the rebel chieftain in a box car on the way to Chihuahua City last week, said tonight. "He had two books, 'The Life of Napoleon and The Life of Jesus Christ, which he had been reading on the train. The only oth- CT thing he carried was red blanket. His face was covered with long, gray whiskers.
 Angeles told me that when he was captured he had not eaten for six days. On his arrival at Cam argo he was given suit of clothes by order of General Dieguez.
 'Two of the three men with An geles have been executed"
 General Gabriel Gavira, former commander of the Juarez district, is head of the military board that is trying Angeles. Another member is General J. Gonzalo Eschobar, the present commander at Juarez.
 Washington, Nov. 24.-There was no word today from the Mexican government in answer to the sharp note from the state department de- manding the immediate release of Wm. O. Jenkins, American consular agent at Puebla,
 All day officials waited for note they thought might be handed them by the Mexican embassy here, in view of reports Sunday night that a long dispatch relating to the Jenk- ins case had reached the embassy from Mexico City. even an intimation that the Mexican government had prepared it's an- swer. So far as the state depart ment was able to learn, Jenkins still was sick and in her Mexican peni- tentiary on charges that he had conspired with rebel bandits who kidnapped him and forced him to pay 2 ransom of approximately $15O.00O.
 The department was in constant communication today with the Amer can embassy m Mexico City and was advised that the cabinet had discuss ed the American note and called Governor Cabrera into conference regarding it. Governor Cabrera is brother of Luis Cabrera, secretary of the treasury in Carranza's cabin ct and known to be one of the most bitter anti-Americans in Mexico.
 President Carranza has found the situation to be so acute that he has returned to Mexico City from Quere- taro to take part in the consideration of the Jenkins case, reports today said.
 Mexican officials have cause dre- ports to be circulated that the gov ernment was amply justified in hold ing Jenkins. No reports has been made to this government of it's rep resentatives, however. as to the ma. ture of the evidence on which the American consular agent was locked
