than a score of Sabinas women after
cutting off their ears, as well as kill
ing every policeman. These reports
lack verification.

his surrender included statements
that he had from 300 to 5000 men
with him and that unless he could OBJ
tain satisfactory terms he would wage
relentless warfare.

Many plants have only limited sup

of the city can be taken care of for two
weeks by regulating distribution of
coal on hand.
