"We heard of a fight at Madera as i
bad a one as they had at Gomez. They I
said Madera had been taken. They '
sent 25 rurales, poor fellows. "We heard
that 300 troops sent down to Parral
had been killed as fast as they got
off the train. Instead of stopping cut
of town and marching up, they ran.

like a lot of sheep. Everybody seem

all right. "We heard lhat they had shot
the chief of police at-Parral, shot him
all full of holes.
Everybody Armed at Jimenez.
"At Jimenez they had bought up all
the guns, and were distributing them.
Even the porters in the hotels were
given arms. They said, 'here is a gun,
now fight for your home. I could
have got one if I had wanted it. They
would take your name and deliver the
rifle. They seemed to think that the
people would fight against the revolu
tionists, but it didn't look that way

"Talk about the spirit of the thing:
It was general; everybody was either
excited or frightened. The govern
ment officials were promising advance
ment If they fought well. But the revo
lutionists had got in -first. Somebody
had played traitor, it semed. I saw a
translation of a circular which had
been distributed among the troops. It
was signed by Francisco I. Madero, i
and said that the soldiers were noth
ing but slaves, and asked them to turn
before it was too late. On the bottom
of the paper was a coupon. If that j
coupon was torn off and returned It i
signified that the men would fight
against the government. The circular
cited the revolt in Porfugal and Tur
key, and warned the revolutionists not
to harm Americans. "They are our
friends it said, 'although they have
received the best from the govern
ment. Every circular was numbered."

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
"WIRES ARE ALL TAKES.
An attempt by the "Western Union
Telegraph company to secure the use
of a wire over the federal telegraph
lines from Mexico City to El Paso to
connect -with the Denver office of the
Asociated Press has been unavailing.
Officials of the federal lines in Mex
ico City stated that they were compell
ed to refuse the request as they had
more than enough business to keep
their only line from Mexico City to
Chihuahua fully occupied.
For the first time in 15 years of
operations, the leased wire of the As
sociated Press from Laredo to Monte
rey and Mexico City has been- com
mandeered by the Mexican government
on the plea of military need.

REBEL LEADERS
MAKE WILLS HERE
Two of Madero 's Lieuten
ants Were In El Paso
Last Week.
Two Madero leaders were in El Paso
last week to ma.ke their last will aatl
testament before going to the front to
lead the insurgent forces against the
towns of Parral, Gomez Palacio and
Madera.
Jose de la Luz Soto, a wealthy cat
tleman, of Jiminez, and one of tho
most influential men of the state of
Chihuahua, accompanied by Abraham
Gonzales, president of the Antlreelec
tionlst club" of Chihuahua, and state
leader for the Madero party during the
recent election, came from Jimenea
"V ednesday to make their wills hero
before joining the revolutionary
forces at Jimenez and Gomez Palacio.
They arrived here "Wednesday morn
ing on the National railways train
from Mexico City. They went immedi
ately to a notary public where thoir
wills were drawn and signed. They left
the same evening for the front antI
are thought to be leading the fighting
at Gomez Palacio or Parral.
"While in El Paso the insurgent
leaders warned their friends to watch
the situation closely in Mexico, as
something significant would happen
within a Very few days, they said. The
uprisings in the towns of Gomez Pa
lacio, Madera and Parral are thought
to be what they had in mind.
The revolutionary leaders were in
communication by .cipher with Frar
cisco Madero, who -was at San Antonio
at that time. They represent the bet
ter element of the revolutionary forces
and are in close touch with the entire
movement against the government.

.Chihuahua Merchants Eeach
El Paso and Confirm
Reports of Trouble.
That the trouble in Mexico is seri
ous, is believed by Primitivo Enrlques
and Louis Estrada, two Chihuahua
merchants, who arrived in El, Paso
Tuesday morning with their families?,
over the National railways. Both are
endeavoring to secure houses in El
Paso and have announced their inten
tion .of remaining In the United States
until the trouble is over.
The hasty exit from Mexico was due,
Mr. Estrada said, to the effort of
army officials to enlist himself and
partner. Upon their refusal, a com
pany of rurales was sent, but the Chi
huahua merchants left the city before
their arrival. Estrada states that he
and his partner are members of a Ri
fle club in Chihuahua and that an
effort is being made to force all the
members of the club into the regular
army.
Estrada confirms the report that a
tralnload of soldiers left Chihuahua
Monday afternoon for Parral, as a re
sult of the serious trouble there.
Estrada also states that a telegraph
operator at Chihuahua told him that a
report had gone over the wires that Ro
dolfo Valles, the mayor of Parral, had
been seriously wounded and was ex
pected to die.
