HUNKS VILLA . IS DEAD
Tecumseh, Neb., July 8. (Special.)
-Captain Roderick Dew, the Tecum
3ch man who is a member of the
Seventeenth infantry, United States
army, and now in Mexico, has writ
ten a letter home. Captain Dew was
promoted from first lieutenant on
July 1. His letter was written from
:amp at a point near El Valle, some
250 miles south of Columbus, N. M.
The epistle was dated June 29 and
in part is as follows:
"Things have been moving along
quite lively down here for the past
two weeks. My company received
orders on the 18th to move over to
El Valle. We started on the morn
ing of the 19th and, after marching
about twelve miles, we were over
taken by a truck with a telegram
ordering me bjfk to Cruces.
"I went back 'and, reported to the
cavalry commander. ' Two nights
later I took s troop of cavalry, and
left camp at midnight and raided
certain houses in which the families,
parents or other relatives of some
of the Columbus raiders lived. I had
heard that these people were coming
into (own during the. night, a thing
they could easily "do' and without
much danger. . Then they would hide
out in the hills during the day. On
the night in question I captured two,
one of them a captain by the name
of Tomas Camarinos. These, with
the one we already had. made twen
ty-three, whom we started north the
next day. I suppose they will event
ually be tried at Columbus. From the
most accurate data obtainable, from
what the prisoners say, there were
about 467 Mexicans in the Columbus
raid. Of this number over 400 have
been accounted for, being either
killed or captured, and this includes
the leaders.
Thinks Villa Is Dead.
"I believe that Villa is dead. We
knew he was badly wounded in the
Guerrero fight, that gangrene set in
and that he was at last being carried
in a litter. The American troops
were pressing him very closely, with
information as to his whereabouts
coming in all the time. All of a sud
den the trail stopped snd no further
trace of him could be picked up be
yond a certain point Nativea said
he died in a pass while being carried
across the mountains and was buried
there. This was a very wild and
lonesome dace and the crave could
not be found, or any of the men whs '
were with him at the time, loo bad,
as the uncertainty will always exist
Promoted July 1.
"I finished tny --examination ' for
promotion in Namiquipa about two
weeks ago and will be a captain day
after tomorrow, July 1. In the mb
up I may go to another regiment as
there will not be enough vacancies
in the Seventeenth. It akes no dif
ference to me where I go, but now
this Mexican war is seemingly about
to start I want to get into it, or
rather remain in it.
"I suppose you have read all about
the fight the Tenth cavalry got into
over near Carrizal, where Captain
Boyd and Lieutenant Adair were
killed and a bunch of troopers were
taken prisoners. Adair was a class
mate of mine and I saw him about
a month ago when his regiment
passed through Cruces. I received
a leter from him on the day he was
killed, written June 15. I shall keep
it as a remembrance."
