advices received today. No Americans
wore injured, but all were robbea with
the exception of Charles Douglas. "
80,000,000 la Paper Saved.
William Rosendale of Chicago, one
of the passengers, arrived at Eagle
Pass with details of the wreck. He
beard that $20,000 in Silver had . been
taken from the express car, an.l that
the Carranzlsta paymaster had been
robbed of IJJ.000 in paper money.

El Paso, Texas. May 16. (U. P.)
American cavalry today hotly pursued
70 Villlstas whose scouts attacked
Lieutenant Patton and a small detach

the Rublo ranch to buy provisions.
The withdrawal of the American ex

signal for renewed Villlsta activities,
according to advices. It was reported
that Francisco Villa has recovered
from his wounds and was again con

mountains.
Ten thousand Americans will soon
be concentrated at Dublan, wher mu

Sidney Waghoner, the last crown
witness to be heard before court ad
