Members of the commission declared the Jefe . politico caused- to be posted on the gate' of the town a list of dead which was added to Tom time to time. The sacrifice was the' price exacted by the jefe politico for the sacking of the town1 which had occurred several weeks before by rebels.' The jefe politico was powerless to resist the attack and in re taliation ordered the slaughter, profess ing to believe that in killing the people he was punishing the rebels. The butch ery began In the jail, where all the pris oners were killed by the guards. Then citizens were butchered.

Morton, badly hurt today when a package Which they were handling ex ploded with terrific force.

The package is described as an ordinary looking box of thin veneer, bronssd with copper, . fifteen Inches square. aj4 set In side a heavy green painted wooden box. To the inner box a small door was at tached, this being secured by a leather hinge. When the expressmen opened the inner door aide a match was ignited, this lighting a 'fuse which' set oft the ex plosive. ' ' The package had been In the office for several ' months.
