COURT MARTIAL
OF MEMBERS IN
MEXLCALL RIOT

MEXICALI, 5uiy 90. = Court
martial trials on charges OF sedition
have been ordered by the federal
government ct Mexico city against
members of the Mcxicali city coun-
ell as result of the fatal riot last
Saturday night. Three policemen,
including Assistant Chief Cullen,
were killed.
Upon receipt of the order from
the federal government, members of
the council, who were liberated
Tuesday from the city hall where
they had barricaded themselves fol-
lowing the battle with the police,
were taken into custody by the mil
itary authorities. Several among
them, including Mayor Juan Loera,
were wounded during Saturday s
battle and these were removed from
the municipal hospital to the mill
tary hospital and placed under
guard. Congressman Covarrubias,
who, it is alleged, was the leading
figure in Saturdays clash, remains
undisturbed at a local hotel, being
immune from arrest under the Mex
lean constitution while n member of
congress. 1t is believed this i'm
munity will be removed eventually
and that he too will stand court
martial.

cided that the Mexicali municipal
council ceased to exist on May %,
last, and all subsequent acts of the
council declared void. Governor
Lugo will appoint committee of
five men to conduct the city's af-
fairs.

Court Rules For
Is Defendants IN
Auto Stage Case

Judge M. W. Conkling this morn
ing filed his decision in the socalled
"stage case,' in which Frederick
Ernsting, O. A. Iadley, and 13
other defendants were charged with
violation of the state motor trans
portation act and conspiracy, the
court upholding the demurrer which
the defendants s attorney had made
to the complaint, and dismissed the
charges against the defendants.
In making his decision, Judge
Conkling ruled that the state rail
road commission had exceeded its
authority in revoking the franchise
granted to the defendants by the
state legislature in May, 1917, and
the defendants were therefore just
flied in continuing operations des-
pitc the contrary order of the rail
road commission.

United Stages, Inc, an dthe United

under which Ernsting and his asso-

damages claimed for the use of the
stage franchise for the past five
years, and for malicious prosecu-
tiOn.

ciates, originally operated stages III

CABINET FAILS

NOTE DEL YED
Discussions of Important
Documents Still In
der Way
BY LLOYD ALLEN,
Urited Press Staff Correspondent

LONDON, July 20.-The British
cabinet, even is unaple to agree up
on the terms of the reparations
note that is to be sent to Germany
and further consideration was un-
der way today, while the allies and
the late enemy waited.
. Discussion of the draft Of the
note and its covering letter, which
were to have been sent to France,
Belgium, Italy and the United
States last night, was resumed at
Downing street.
1t is expected that the documents
will be ready to be handed to rep
rescntatives of the allies here to-
night.
Two factors are understood to
have delayed unanimous cabinet
agreement upon the note, which is
Britain S answer to the latest Ger
man offer and an important an
nounccmcnt of British policy to-
ward the whole question Of rcpara-
tions rs well.
Germany is understood to have
intcrposed certain suggestions.
The diehards, - whose one anXi-
ETY. is that there shall be no breal,
with France, arc understood to
have been bringing pressure to
bear upon Premier Baldwin from
quite the opposite quarter. They
seek to prevent the premier from
criticizing frances Ruhr venture
and from adopting too lenicnt an
attitude toward Germany.
1t is suggested that delivery OF
the note will be followed by general
pour parlers between allied pre-
miers and foreign secretaries.

MEXICO CITY, July 20.-Pancho
Villa is reported to have been as
sassinated. The erstwhlle hero of
revolutionary Mexico, the former
bandit and rebel chief, who defied
the American government and led
the famous raid upon Columbus, n.
NJ, is reported to have been shot
down by his own men near Parral.
Villa has lived a quiet ire of Il
farmer during recent years. His
! name has not figured in Mexico s
political affairs.
The report was received AT gov
ernment offices here from tele-
graph clerk at Parral. 1t was said
Villa had been shot to death in
row near his ranch las, night.
Colonel Miguel Torillo, chief of
Villa S staff, and the former rev.
olutionary leader S secretary, is al
so reported to have been shot and
killed.
Causes Sensation
News of the reported Staying of
Villa, caused a sensation in Mex
iNo WY ihc idtcSt ucbdilo lcCciN-
ed stated that the shooting took
place early' this morning.
Villa and his secretary, were said
TO have been enroute to Parral
from Villa S ranch. They were
accompanied by Villa S usual escort.
Members of the escorting party
| suddenly turned and began firing
upon their chief. Villa fell shot
| through the body with several bull
lets.
A dispatch from telegraph clerk
brought the report of Villa s assas-
sination to the government officials
here. This report told of a quar-
rel among the men living on the
| Villa ranch.
| Such IN end would be in radical
contrast to the life of the famous
leader before his surrender and
! agreement with the existing Mex
lean government to lay down his
( arms.
Had Checkered Career
1t. was in March, 1916. that Villa
staged the Columbus raid, the re-
! suits of which threatened 10 plunge
| America into intervention. During
this period Villa, a poor peon, made
himself one of the most powerful
and most feared men in his country.
Little has been heard of villa in
the last three years. When in 1920
he gave up his bandit life for the
peaceful pursuit of ranehing at the
instigatioa of the then Provisional
President, Adolfo de la Iiuerta, he
passed from the international stage
on which he played such an inn
portant role.
1t was Villa and his bloody dep
relations that drew General Per
shing into the desert of chihuahua
in 1916 in fruitless pursuit.
Villa, however, met his Waterloo
in 1915 at the hands OF General
Obregon, now president of Mexico
( in bloody battle in which VIVA \
formidable army of 100000 men
was routed.
Francisco Villa, commonly known
as "Paneho" Villa throughout Mex
leo. was still regarded rs one Of
/ the big men of the republic despite
his apparent retirement, and was
expected to take prominent part
in the coming presidential election.
