DOUGLAS, Arls., Nov. 5. General
Villa has ordered the release of Doc
tors Thlgpen and Miller and the two
American chauffeurs whom he re
ported dead yesterday, according to
a message received this afternoon.
The men were prisoners at Ca
nanea. The doctors, however, will
remain at Cananea to care for the
wounded. Villa says he was mis
taken when he reported tho foru
killed.
He said h,e now believed the men
slain southwest of Agua Trteta
Wednesday were four American
teamsters, who came with him from
Chihuahua. Pylant and WlUon, the
chauffeurs, will return to the border.
DOUGLAS, Arls., Not. 6. Infor
mation from several reliable sources
today definitely contradicted Fran
cisco Villa's statement to General
Frederick, Funston and other Amer
ican army offlcors at Naco, Arls.,
yesterday that Dr. II. R. Thlgpen,
chief surgeon of the Cananea Con
solidated Copper company; his as
sistant. Dr. James Miller, and two
American chauffeurs, J. D. Pylant
and Ay u Wilson, had been killed
Wednesday by Carranta riflemen
near Agua Prleta, " i
'.The four men are declared held
prisoners at Villa Verde, twenty
miles south of Naco, and the belief
is generally expressed that Villa de
liberately told tbe story of their
death in order that be might hold
them and supply his urgent nsed ot
surgeons without being subject to
Inquiry or the necessity of giving
them up.
The Cananea Consolidated company of
ficials diplomatically assumed, however,
that Villa merely had been mistaken and
want to th Mexican outlaw chief today
with a request that they be released.
Villa was preparing to leave Naco this
morning and did not immediately reply,
Story Told by Villa.
NACO, Aria, Nov. . Francisco Villa
reached the border across from here to
day with 1,000 ot the army defeated by
the Carransa forces Monday at Agua
Prleta and told American army officers
that Dr. R. H. Thlghen, chief surgeon of
the Cananea Consolidated Copper com
pany; his assistant. Dr.' Miller, and two
American chauffeurs, J. D. Fylant and
A. L. Wilson, had been killed yesterday
morning by Calles' fir In front of Agua
Prleta.
They war succoring wounded at th
tlm and wandering Into th line ot fire
and were all shot down white under ths
Red Cross flag. They were buried whir
they fell, but Villa, while formally es
presslng regret at their death, declined
tonight to say where they wer burled.
He could not permit any bodies to be
disinterred, even to clear a doubt thai
they actually had been kiiied,

This doubt was caused by th statement
of Dr. Frederick H. Wick man of St.
Louis, Mo., who dashed across th line
this afternoon shouting that he wss about
to be shot and afterward declared that

o'clock last night. Wlckham, ' however,
appeared to be somewhat dased from fa
tigue and the' experience which be de
clare he underwent while under a death
watch awaiting execution for some un
known offense. , '
Four thousand of Villa's men are at

LONDON, No. 6. King Constan

on the defeat of his ministry In tho

patch from Athens. M. Zalmls re
fused to accept the offer and a coun

INDON, Nov, 6. The all-nlpht
meeting of the Greek Chamber, tho
new attack of former Premier
Venizelos on the policy of tho gov
trnment and his criticism of King
Constantino's Interference with "con
stitutional liberties" of the Greek
people, are recent stages of the new
I olttlcal crisis, which for the time
being has overshadowed the military
rltuatlon in the Balkans. According
to latest Information from Athens,
the king is expected to continue the
Zalmis cabinet and dissolve Parlia
ment rather than accept the other
alternative of permitting M. VcnUe
los to return to power.
King Constantino Is said to be In thor
ough sympathy with the conduct before
the chamber of General Yanakltaas, war
minister, whose remarks brought on the
crisis and to have demonstrated appre
