OFFICIALS NOT NOTIFIED.
Seizure Believed Result of Landing on
Mexican Soil.

Neither the State Department nor
the War Department has been notified
today of the capture by Mexicans Of
Capt. c. H. Reynolds and Staff Sergt.
Gus Newland of Fort Sam Houston.
In the absence Of official reports the
assumption was that the men had
been taken in custody when they
landed on Mexican soil. which would
not be an unusual procedure in such
cases.
Hope that the IS Americans and II
British reported trapped by radicals
in their homes at the Amparo mines
in Mexico, are in no immediate dan.
ger, is entertained at the State De.
partment. although messages have
failed definitely to clarity the general
situation at the mines.

on the other hand, advised the de.
partment that at l pm. Saturday no
Mexican federal or state troops, for

yet reached the mines. but that the
governor of Jalisco had arrived on the

take action against all foreigners in

100000 Damages Asked.
No further advices have reached the
State Department regarding the train
attack near Acapaneta August %. in
which Miss Florence Anderson Of Los

WIFE'S HOPES RENEWED.
Venezuela Report Strengthens Belief
Redfern Is Safe.

BRUNSWICK, Ga, August 80 (P).
Renewed hope that Paul Redfern
may have reached South America
was given to the wife and friends of
the aviator here today on receipt of
the Associated Press bulletin from
Caracas, Venezuela.
The news was communicated i'm
mediately to the young wife Of the
aviator, who has been staying with
friends here since her husband hop
ped off at 1916 pm. Thursday for
Brazil.
Redfern's mapped schedule called
for his passage over the Grenada
Islands and the town of st. George
Friday morning. A stretch of 489
brought him over the Tobago Islands,
4S9 miles from continent land.
Friday afternoon he expected to
reach near Port of Spain. Isle of Trim
idad, and Friday night he hoped to
pass over the continent through
Dutch Guiana, but If he encountered
severe head winds he would have
been held back possibly until Satur-
day morning before entering South
America.
The south 45 degrees east course
would have taken Redfern inland over
South America at the mouth of the
Copperame River in Dutch Guiana.
west of Paramaribo.
Food for 10 Days.
Since Redfern was alone and had
no radio, he had to>figure out as best
he could his course in case winds or
storms swerved him from the plotted
route. The hope was held here that
the aviator. in trying to dodge storms
reported I'm the lower Caribbean,
turned purposely from his course and
had descended safely somewhere in
the interior Of northern South Amer.
lea. perhaps at some point where
there is no wire communication.
If Redfern was forced down in the
interior and escaped hurt he had suffi-
cient food to last for 10 days and
safety apparatus by which he predict
ed before leaving he might almost in
definitely exist in the jungles.
Apprehension for Redfern's safety
was increased Saturday night when
reports were received from aviators
returning to Miami that severe gales
had been experienced off Hopetown,
Great Abaco. on the eastern fringe Of
LuS IkeulcTH Idu
out a course which would have placed
him in the path of this moderate
storm had he followed his schedule.
It's intensity. according to the belief
Of the Miami pilots. led to the con-
clusion that Redfern might have been
forced to swerve from his path and
in so doing may have made an error
in reckoning his position.
Hope He Landed on Water.
Faint hopes are entertained here
that Redfern, when his gasoline gave
out, may have landed on the water Or
possibly near some island along his
route, either near the Bahamas or
somewhere in the Caribbean Sea. The
plane was constructed to keep afioat
for considerable time, and the
chances are declared to be far more
favorable for his rescue on the water
than If he had been forced down
within the jungles N mountainous re-

CLASHES MARK FUNERAL
Boston Police Forcibly Divert Process.
sion from State House.

BOSTON, August 20 LP.-The Gre
mated remains of Nicola Sacco and
Bartolomeo Vanzetti. executed radi
calls. today were in charge of Mrs.
Rose Sacco. widow of the one. and
Miss Luigia Vanzetti. sister of the
other, after funeral procession which
was diverted forcibly from the State
House and was marked by clashes
with the police.
More than 100000 persons looked on
yesterday when through eight miles
of rain-soaked streets the hearses
carrying the bodies of the men were
driven to the cemetery. often through
crowds that had to be cleared by two
score mounted police.
Hoarse occasional shouts from the
throng, as police attempted to check
the following thousands, were the only
demonstrations that came from the
multitude For the most part, the
march was orderly.
Clash Near Cemetery.
Plans of those who had charge of
the procession to route it past the
State House were changed without
consultation by the police, who held
the leading cars to a more direct way.
Numerous distractions had been
placed in the streets leading to the
Capitol. Signs warned that the
thoroughfares were under repair.
parked city trucks left no room for
other vehicles, while squads of police
men were ready to enforce the obvious
blockade.
Only near the crematorium at the
Forest Hills Cemetery was there real
clash, and there police drew clubs to
enforce their efforts to keep traffic
clear and speed up the funeral fol-
lowers.
Address Read i'm Chapel.
In a chapel stripped of religious
insignia, the sole spoken word of the
service was an address read by Miss
Mary Donovan. a member OF the
Sacco.Vanzetti defense committee, who
termed the men victims of the
crassest< plutocracy the world has
known since ancient Rome"
