ESCAPED DRAFT
FOR TWO YEARS,
THENSURRENDERS
(By Associated Press)

CHILLrCOInk, mo-, May 10
Stories of how a neighbor deserted
from the Union army during the Civil
war and when brought to bay was shot
brought visions of similar fate to
Carl Amerine and impelled him to
hide in the hills for two years.
Amerine was drafted into the army
and left wife and two children to go
to Camp Sheridan but impelled with
the desire to see his family returned
home.
His father, who was Civil war vet
eran. told him he was a deserted and
Amerine hid in cave living mostly
on berries, wild herbs and game. The
military authorities abandoned the
search for him and last week an at,
torney, a friend of the family induced
him to give himself up, declaring
there was no longer any danger OF
a firing squad.
Today Amerine surrendered at
Camp Sheridan and said he was
pleased it was all over.

Members of the congregation of the

this morning through their attorney
prepared the following statement on
behalf of Rev. L. II. White, removed
by the board several days ago. The
statement presents Rev. Whites side
of the case. 1t is as follows.
"The controversy between the board
of trustees and the pastor of the Col

the East Side has reached the acute
legal stage. The board day or so

the Rev. l.. ii, White had been sus-

no longer pastor. The reported of The
Press was unable to get statement
from Rev. White yesterday, but it
seems that the pastor is a man of ac-

he filed a petition in the Superior court
for a writ of prohibition against w.

General Oregon Reports
Successful Escape of Pres

Severe AS Reported.
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, May 15.-Presi-
dent Carranza's escape from the rev.
dictionary forces which attacked
his troops near EperanZa was re-
ported today by General Oregon in
a message to tn revolutionary
agents on the border which forward
ed it here.
General Obregon said the deposed
president had succeeded in breaking
through the revolutionary lines and
accompanied bv small escort was
moving southwark into the mountains
The message added that Carranza
was being pursued by the revolution
lists.
Recent information indicates that
the fighting has not been as severe
as it was reported unofficially. APP
parently the revolutionary command
ers used tactics calculated to inflict
the least possible loss on Carranza's
men.
His chances of escaping capture are
regarded as mparatively slight be-
cause of his age and physical condi-
ton which make it difficult for him
to undergo the hard riding and ex-
posture which he will be forced to face.

Interview to the Imperial

Wrathy at Tales of Revolt

Eve shall continue in the usual
tenor OF our way. $50. and shall be
governed by the constitutional gov
eminent OF Mexico, whatever that
may be-" so declared Governor Can
tn in proclamation issued the lat
ter part of this week, which indi-
Gates the governor will be loyal to
the governing power in Mexico City
whether it be Carranza or rebel.
In taking thisJ stand, the governor
announces that he is not mixing into
the affairs of the central government,
one way or the other, unless he is
forced to make the move, it was point
ed out by Mexican official living on
the Calexico side of the line. The
governor sees the situation as man
in his position should see it. Lower
California has nothing to gain by de-
claring herself with the rebels, for
they have nothing to offer the state
of Baja at present. other than anarchy
combined with grief and murder, he
continued.
EXPECTING ATTACK
1t was pointed out by the officials
however, that nothing was preventing
the rebels from attacking them on the
east at Andrade, and from all indica-
tons this would probably be done with
in the next week.
1t was conclusively proven last
night thatt should trouble result in
Lower California, it will be by direct
INVASION and not by mutiny and re-
volt within the bounds of the state,
because of the loyalty of the populace
to Gov. Cantu.
Governor Cantu was very wrathy
yesterday at an article appearing in
an Ell Centre morning paper, resume
of which appeared in a Los Angeles
morning paper. Particularly was the
governor wrathy at a tale of an al
