HAVANA. Cuba, May 22. (Special
Cable.) A graphic story of the flight
of Carranza and his followers from
Mexico and of how the president fear
lessly fought at the head of the gov
ernment troopB in their last stand
prior to fleeing into the mountains is
told here by J. H. Durrell of the
National City bank of New York, an
eye-witness.
Mr. Durrell, who is the bank's rep
resentative in Mexico City, was on
the 23d and last of the fugitive trains

against the revolutionists. Alter a
t.mnpstfinun iourney. during which
his life and those of three Americans
and one Jfinglisnman wiin
constantly In danger, he arrived here
yesterday. .
In this party were W. A. Body. Brit
ish vice-consul at Vera Cruz, and J. C.
Pickering. J. A. McKee and M. M.
Black, Americans. This is the story
told by Mr. Durrell:
Mexico City In Panic.
With the approach of the rebel
armies, Mexico..Clty was in a panic
tt was with difficulty that tne gov
ernment troops were able to round up
Carranza's followers and get them to
the trains, of which there were 27.
Four of these, on which were 2000
fifrima soldiers and nearly all of
the federal artillery and airplanes
were caught by the rebels and did not
' crAt out of the cltv.
"Our train. tha -23d, was the last
to get away and at that the rebels
were on our heels. : we naa oeen on
the train all night and it was nearly
noon of May 1 that we got away.
We had no 'more than passed
through the suburbs when the rebel
forces came upon 'us, rode up along
side the train and took the engineer
off. We were unable to proceed. Just
when things began to look black for
us a student of the military school,
who was In our car. which was occu
pied mostly by women, children and
civilians, opened fire on the rebels.
He shot one in the neck. As the man
fell from his horse, he -and his com
rades returned the fire, seven bul-.
lets splintering the woodwork and
smashing the windows.
"During the excitement the fire
man, who was being held at bay be
side the engine, jomped into the cab
and before the rebels could prevent,
the train was under way. A shower
, of bullets accompanied us and one hit
the military student who was leaning
out . of the car window still firing.
Rebels Cat Arrom Country.
The rebels did not give up the
fight, however. At this point the
tracks curve around a mountain and
by cutting across country on their
horses, the rebels were able to fire
upon us again. This time all the pas
sengers crouched upon the floors of
the cars and there were no fatalities.
After a run of 20 miles we caught
up with the line of trains ahead and
from that time on there was trouble
every day. At Rlnconada we were
stopped again. Rebels were in pos
session of the town and hadj fortified
the hill overlooking the railroad
tracks. They had torn up the rails
. also.
"It was at this place that I saw the
most thrilling fighting of the trip.
The battle -continued for two days.
On the morning of the first day Car-1
ranza led his men successfully against
the rebels, taking every point of van
tage except the hill overlooking the
trains. In this battle the president
seemed to throw off his years. He
jumped into the fray -with all the
spirit of a young commander, seem
ingly oblivious to the bullets and
shells flyins around him.
"On the morning of the second day
General Murguia led the federal troops
and took the town. I was told that
200 rebels were killed and 400 cap
tured. "As we were about to. proceed, one
of the captives revealed that further
down the track mines had been plant
ed and that the presidential train was
to be blown up. Men were sent ahead
and the explosives were dug up. After
taking on water, we continued to San
Andres."
Pans Tkrootk I.lnra Obtained.
"True to his prom'ise. Carranza the
next day gave us a pass through the
lines. There whs a civilian on the
train who had his auto aboard. He
expected to lose the car and we had
little difficulty in making a deal to
purchase it outright. It took us so
long, however, to get the machine off
the train that the fighting was re
sumed before we were ready to at
tempt to escape to Vera Cruz in the
machine.
"With a white flag held aloft, we
started, intending to go straight
ahead of the Carranza train. The reb
els didn't seem interested in the flag
of truce, however, and their bullets
were so numerous that we were be
ginning to give up the idea of the
automobile trip when shells falling in
the path of the car convinced us. We
turned back.
"When we got back to the train
we found Carranza, Murguia. Barran
gan and all of his soldiers had been
persuaded also. They were preparing
to run for it.
Mounting their horses. Carranza
and his followers fled to the moun
tains, with the rebels close behind.
We continued our way back and
when we reached the last of the
trains we again were fired upon by
the rebels. Then we decided to take a
chance and surrender.
."General Cerebino was the com
mander of this outfit, and he offered
us safe conduct for any place we
chose to go. We spent several days
among the rebels.
"I believe Carranza could have es
caped to Vera Cruz had he kept the
trains moving instead of stopping to
fight. However, I suppose he knew
best. He and his men knew the moun
tains so thoroughly they' probably
thought this was their one best way
out of danger."

ON VICTORY AT POLLS.
Rumor of Intention to Run as In
dependent Candidate Is De
nied in Statement.
Thomas A. Sweeney, who was a can
didate for the republican nomina
tion against C. N. McArthur, in con
ceding his defeat at the polls Friday
has telegraphed Representative Mc
Arthur stating that he will vote for
and support him at the November
election. At the same time. Mr.
Sweeney issued a statement in which
he spiked the rumor that he was to
run as an independent candidate. Mr.
Sweeney's telegram to McArthur fol
lows: "I concede your renomination and
wish to congratulate you. I shall both
vote for and support you in the gen
eral election."
The following statement was issued
by Mr. Sweeney to the voters of the
third congressional district:
'I wish to express my thanks and
appreciation to my many loyal friends
who supported me during the cam
paign just ended and, further, I de
sire to especially thank the newspa
pers of the city of Portland for space
and publicity that was accorded to
me. I also state at this time, so that
my position will be understood, that
I shall not be an independent candi
date, but shall vote for and support
C. N. McArthur in the general election
next November."
Eugene E. Smith, defeated repub
lican candidate for congress from this
district. yesterday telegraphed to
Representative McArthur. his suc
cessful rival and present incumbent,
pledging his earnest support in the
campaign and congratulations upon
the clean conduct of his campaign
and the victory won. Mr. Smith's
telegram was is follows:
"The republican voters of this dis
trict have again chosen you as tl.eir
nominee for representative in con
gress and I cheerfully submit to their
will. Permit me to assure you of my
henest and earnest support and to
congratulate you on your clean cam
paign and its attendant victory.
"EUGENE E. SMITH."

successful candidate in the republican
primary contest.
Since the death of Governor Withy
combe in March, 1919, Mr. Olcott haa
held the offices of both governor and
secretary of state. For the latter of
fice, however, he has claimed no com
pensation.
It was said here today that the gov
ernor is extreme'.;- anxious that three
persons shall compose the state board
of control, and for that reason he is
expected to retire from the state de
partment within the next few days.
This would make it possible for Mr.
Kozer to participate in the proceed
ings of the board of control at its
meeting early In June.
Although not officially announced
by Mr. Kozer, his close political
friends said today that John W. Coch
ran at present secretary of the i
publican state central committee
would be named chief deputy In the
state department. Mr. Cochran has
been a life-long republican and served
as chief clerk in the senate during
several sessions of the state legisla
ture, in private life ho is a news
paper man, having been employed on
ine Uregonion in Portland for a
.lumber of years. He has a wide ac
quaintanceship throughout the state
and is in close touch with local gov
ernmental affairs.
It is not believed here that Mr.
Kozer will make any other changes In
the personnel of his office staff, with
tne possible exception of one or two
promotions made possible through
tne enactment of laws creating new
positions.
