SAY CLARK NEVER WAS IN

Assertions are made in Mexico
City that Henry Clark, who was sup
posed to have been captured by
bandits and held for ransom in Chi
huahua, las been playing little
comedy for some purpose and that
he has never been in the hands of
bandits.
No effort is made to explain Why
Clark should have attempted ID
ceptio1 beyond hint thai he might
have thought Of collecting a ran
som fo- himself.
Clark IS said t7 be 4 British sub
ject and not an American. He is
employed by the international
Land and Live Stock Goa Chicago
corporation which owns large tracts
in Northern Mexico.
The assertion that Clark told Of

had figured in a sensational $780,
