Washington, Mar. 11.-Relatiyes and
friends of Americans Kidnapped by
Francisco Villa need have no concern
as to their safety and may dismiss all
fear that they may be held for ransom
if they repose full confidence in a
communication recently received from
the Mexican bandit leader. According
to his note of reassurances, he has
adopted the only practical means he
can think of to get a friendly CONVEX
sation with various representative
Americans who cross his trail, and
while they are his guests" they will
be treated with every consideration
and returned unharmed and unrobbed
to their friends.
The substances of Villas communi-
cation was transmitted unofficially to
officers of the intelligence branch of
the war department coincident with =
consular report received at the state
department announcing the release of
Joseph Williams, who had been car
ried off into the mountains by Villa
last week after an attack on a train
in which Williams was passenger.
Williams was the fifth American cap
tured by the outlaw in two months,
all of whom have been released with
out the payment Oh fdnSoh-
1t was explained in the message
Villa succeeded in getting here, that
only a vague idea of what was going
on in the outside world could be had
where he was and the desire to learn
more, to gain the Americans point of
view and a determination to give op-
portunities to carry back with them
some of his own theories of what a
government in Mexico should be had
caused him to determine to gather in
his guests where he might find them
regardless of their Willingness 10 ac-
cept his invitation. He added that
from time to time others would be
| brought in, but urged those interested
not to become alarmed for it was no
part of his plan either to injure them
or collect ransom.

possible future development of the
Boise project and other territory
awaiting irrigation in southwestern
Idaho and then launched into TRADE,
against the Idaho Power company

might be better served.
