that the men who murdered John B.

General Emaliano Zapata, is expected
momentarily by the state department.
The Itexican capital was reported to
day to be quiet, with Zapata's soldiers

There also is considerable apprehen
sion as to what might follow tho exe
cution of the Blatwrs. of McManns.
Zapata's men are mostly desperate
characters, and it is feared that if Gen.
oral Snliiznr, post commander, fulfills
his promise speedily to execute the mur
derers, fheir companions may attempt
reprisals. Such conduct on their part
would start a general riot, officials say,
jeoi) irdizing still further the lives of
i'oiei;;n residents.

Shot Two Zapatists.
Chicago, March Kl. Mrs. Mury Dur
gnu, sister of John B. Mc.Mnnus, who
was murdered by Zapatista soldiers in
Mexico City, took steps today to have
his body returned to the United States.
She has been officially advised that
Mrs. McManus and her children are
safe.
If the Mexican authorities attempt to
block the removal of the body under
the luw which prevents removing a
corps from the country until two years
after death, Mrs, Dargnn will usk the
aid of the United States government.
It develops that n price was put on
McManus' head during the regimo of
General Victinianu Huerta. He fled to
Chicago, remaining several months. Af
ter Huerta had been deposed, McManus
returned to Mexico City and got into
trouble with Zapatista soldiers. In n
letter he wrote to his sister recently,
McManus admitted ho had shot two
Zapatistas.
Secretary of State Bryan announced
this afternoon thai he had telegraphed
General Villa regarding punishment for
the slayers of McManus. The message
was sent to American Agent Carothers
for delivery to Villa.
