Who Raided Dig Bend Section.
Marathon, Texas, May 7.--Major
Langhorne and two troops ot cavalry
.surrounded the Mexican bandits tvho
raided (Denn Springs, about 11*5
miles from the bolder, killing six and
capturing 7">. according to a truck
driver arriving to-day from Boquillas.
Army officers here have made no an
nouncement regarding the reported
engagement.
According to thc truck driver, the
bandits were surrounded and di l not
put up a fight. The Americans ceas
ed firing at once.
Tho 75 captured, it was said, were
to be bro ight here for trial.
Americans Rescued.
San Antonio. Texas, May 17.-Tho
rescue of the American soldier, J.
Deeiiior, and the negro cook, Monioe
Payne, carried off as prisoners by the
bandits that raided Glenn Springs
ami Boquillas, was reported to Geu
[''illiston to-day.
Their rescue alive was due to the
refusal of the residents of the village,
where they had been loft, to carry out
the orders of the bandits to kill them
if tim American troops attempted
their rescue.
The report came from Col. Sibley,
who received his information from
Majot Langhorne, now about IO0
miles south of the border. A detach
ment of Major Langhorne's tones
fourni the Americans at Kl Pino, DO
miles south of Boquillas yesterday
morning. Tho prisoners had been
left there by their captors In charge
of the residents. None but thc un
armed inhabitants of the town were
there when the American soldiers ar
rived and no resistance was made.
Major Langhorne reported to Col.
Sibley that he was pushing forward
and ho|ied to overtake the bandits I
during the day.
Ho added that no Federal troops,
had been encountered and that the j
attitude of lite residents in the terri
tory through which he had passed
.iPlicated friendly.
A scarcity of forage was reported
and Col. Sibley said that he was
preparing to send forward as rapidly
as poss!bio hay and grain for the
horses and mules. Col. Sibley was at
a point about 10 miles south of the
border.
Now Pistol Does Deadly Work.
Field Headquarters, May 8.- ( By
Army Motor to Columbus, N. M.,
May 17.-The high mortality of Mex
ican bandits in the Ojo Azules fight
last Friday, when Major il. L. Howe's i
command killed 55 Villa bandits, was I
credited by officers here to-day In !
part to the effectiveness of the new
army automatic . I ."?-calibre pistol.
Most of the fighting was done with 1
pistols by the Americans, who ran ?
down the bandits, at close range.
The blow from the big .45 lead
bullet is said to be nearly sufficient In
itself to stagger a horse.
Accuracy ls the strong point of this
pistol. In former types of army pis
tols the mon found that each weapon
was a t ri Ho off from absolute aeeu- .
racy on account of gas in the chant- '
ber. so that In shooting at a bull's
eye it was necessary to ain. a little to j
the right or left, according to the bias j
of the particular gun. The new pis
tols shoot point blank at more than
1 00 yards.
The briefest report of the fight was
that brought back to the advanced
base by Sergeant Chicken, the oldest
of the 20 Apache Indian scouts. No I
one with this expedition seems to
know Sergeant Chicken's age, which
is estimated variously at from "n to
00. Ho was in lite van during tho
i? i st ol battle, where his experiences
were said to be thrilling. When
urged to tell what he knew, Sergeant
Chicken said: "Him damn fine fight."
Further details he refused to dis
close.
Mexicans Murder Chinese.
Columbus, X. M., May 17. - Stories
of the murder of ten Chinese mer
chants tit San Antonio, Mexico, by
bandits believed to have been follow
ers of Villa were brought to the bor
der to-day by retumig truckmen. Ac
cording to Hie stories, the Chinese
had been selling supplies to the
Americans and were killed immedi
ately after tho withdrawal of thc
American troops.
Mexicans in the district occupied
by tho America".-, have been warned
that they wou'.i be killed if they dealt
willi the Americans, and it is believ
ed here that the slaughter of Chinese
was intended as a warning to the na
tive population.
Rumors that typhus had broken
out among the Mexicans at Casas
Crandes wen; received at tho base
camp. It was said that several
stores were closed, but no cases
among Americans were known.
Mexicans Raid Shock Farm,
Mercedes, Texas, May 17.-Three
Mexican bandits raided the stock
farm of John P. Sewell, south of
Mercedes early to-day, taking seve
ral head of stock and a number of
saddles. Soldiers began search for
the raiders.
Military telephone lines between
here and Donna have been cut seve
ral times since Sunday.
Two Raiders to (?allows.
Austin, Texas, May 17.-The State
Board of Pardons to-day declined to
recommend commutation of sentence
in the cases of .lose Buen rostro and
Melqu?ades Chapa, Mexicans, who
participated in the Texas border
raids last summer, and who were
found guilty of the murder of A. L.
Mustln and his son, Charles, nt Se
bastian, Texas. The men will bo
banged at Brownsville Friday unless

which is not probable.
