BODIES OF BOYD AND
ADAIR ATEL PASO
Corpses of Two Officers and
Seven Troopers Killed at
Carrizal Brought Home.
EIGHT BUSIED IN DITCH
1 Paso, C'cx., july 6. The bodies
of Cipttin Eharle T. Boyd, Lieuten
ant Henry Adair and feven troopers
of the Tenth cavalry, killed at Carri
zal, were brought to El Paso today at
8:30 a. m. Only the bodies of the two
officer and Private Dewitt Rucker
have been identified.
Eight of the Americans were ex
humed from a single grave, the under-"
takers who. brought back the bodies
said. '- ' '
The dead had been gathered from
the field of battle and eas into a
ditch. This was then filled up.
Captain Boyd, Lieutenant Adair and
six troopers, stripped of their uni
forms, were mixed indiscriminately in
the dirt
The body of the ninth trooper was
located two miles distant from the
others. He had been wounded and
apparently had dragged himself away
to die in the gravelly waste beyond
the town.
Arrival Nearly Unnoticed.
' 'Scenes in sharp contrast to those
of a week ago, when the Carrizal pris
oners were brought from Chihuahua
City and turned over to General
George Bell, jr., marked the return of
the American dead. In Juarez the
event was scarcely noticed, while in
El Paso only a few hundred persons,
quiet and subdued, replaced the cheer
ing throng that greeted the twenty
three troopers of the Tenth.
Indifference in Juarez to the event
was explainable in the fact that the
special train bearing the bodies did
' not arrive there from Villa Ahumada
until late last night Before the town
was well awake an engine detached
the car containing the dead and
pushed it out to the center of the In
ternational bridge. The American au
thorities then hitched on an engine
and completed the transfer to the El
Paso side.-;
Escort la Not Ready.
General Bell had not expected the
bodies to be delivered so early in the
mornina and the Eitrhth cavalry.
which had been detailed from Fort
Bliss to act as an escort, was not on
hand. An impromptu guard was
formed, however, from soldiers of the
Seventh infant. ' encamped near the
bridge. Part of these marched beside
the car while the remainder stood at
attention as it rolled off the bridge
upon American soiL
Word was immediately sent to Fort
Bliss and the Eighth cavalry was
started cityward.
Examination of the bodies showed
that Captain Boyd was shot through
the right eye and that Lieutenant
Adair's death resulted from a wound
in the breast
By the time the Eighth had retched
the death car at 10:30 a. m. thou
sands had gathered along the streets,
Full Military Honors. ;
General Bell and his staff were on
hand. The cavalry drew up at atten-
' tion with sabres drawn, while the
. twenty-three negro troopers surren
dered by the de facto government last
week from Chihuahua and the one re
leased from Juarez Monday took sta
tion at the car's entrance, directly be
bind General Bell and the other offi-
. cere. . ' "' ' -'.
Mine ambulances had been provided
. and as the caskets were taken out of
' the car they were covered with flags
and placed in these. The mounted
band of the cavalry played "Nearer
My God to Thee" during this part of
the ceremony. n '
The body of Captain Boyd was first
; taken from the car. Next followed
that of Lieutenant Adair and than
those of the troopers.
When the ambulances had been
loaded a squadron of the cavalry led
the march to the undertaking estab
lishments where it had been decided
to hold the bodies for the present
The band played the Chopin funeral
march, squads of dismounted men fell
in beside the ambulances, behind each
of which a riderless horse was led,
.the officers and men followed and the
cortege moved off between lanes of
people, who bared their heads as it
passed. n i .-.,-
Funeral Service Read. '
. At the chapel of the undertaking
establishment a brief service was read
by Chaplain W. W. Brander, of the
Eighth cavalry.
It was announced that the Identified
bodies would be turned over to the
relatives and that those who remained
unidentified probably would be sent
to Arlington cemetery, Washington,
for burial -
Two of the horses that followed
the ambulances were survivors of Car

airy. None of the others bore iden
tification tin. Armv officers, how
ever, had full description , of the
fourteen missing men and from these
it was expected that the identity of
the remaining bodies which were
in Juarez soon would be determined.

Peters was figured at $75, and Cap
tain Foye and John .Redick also were
expensive buys, especially in view of
the fact that three hours later their
chances were nix.
The golf exhibited in the various
matches of the day was not' nearly
as remarkable as the various upsets
of the dope. Bill Chambers and his
lumbago cultivated a 76 round in beat
ing Guy Beckett, and Bill could have
done a rushing business auctioning
lumbago germs from his own stock
if he had been so inclined. Paul Scott
also shot a 76 in eliminating. Jack
Hughes. Ralph Peters and John Red
ick did not display anything remark
able during the first nine holes of
their match. Peters couldn't putt and
Redick couldn't drive. Both steadied
on the inside and Peters wound up
by cutting par one stroke for his last
five holes. Redick's ability to keep his
drives out of the rough cost him his
title.
Whirlwind Finish.
In the Sprague-Foye match, possi
bly the biggest upset of the day, Foye
had Sprague three down at the turn,
when Sprague cut loose with a 3 on
ten, eleven and twelve, respectively,
evening the match. He took the six
teenth, sinking a neat putt, and the
seventeenth was halved. On the eight
eenth Foye had a chance to even the
match, but his three-foot putt rimmed
the cup and Sprague halved the hole,
winning the match.
The out-of-town delegation fared
badly yesterday, all of the visitors be

championship flight Several still sur

core, nil oiai Deing ,
Hastings took the team cup offered
under similar conditions.
Annual Meeting Today.
The annual meeting of the associa
tion will be held today and officers
will be elected at that time. If Lincoln
wants the tournament next year, it
probably will get it, otherwise the
event would stay in Omaha. Action
on awarding the tournament may not
be taken at today's meeting.
Karl Bock, who was stated to have
filed the protest with the sports com
mittee against Joe William's score in
the qualifying round, feels that he has
been placed in a false light by public
ity regarding the matter.
Mr. .dock, it appears, was one of
three witnesses who were asked by
the committee to tell what thev knew
of the alleged infraction of rules. He
says that he had no animus in the
affair, and does not wish to be under
stood as in any way detracting from
Williams' performance.

VILLA SENDS EE YES NOTE
El Paso," Tex., July 6. Villistaa
pursuing their victory over Carranzis-
tas at Corral ranch on July 4 have
attacked Jimenez, according to re
ports reaching mining men here today.
Military authorities in Juarez were
unable to affirm or deny the reports,
as all telegraph lines to the city had
been cut."
Reports trom Chihuahua City fol
lowing the engagement at Corral said
that the broken Carranzlsta command
had retired to Jimenez, which is 120
miles south of Ch" uahua City, and
had been reinforced there bjK2,000
n.en under General Domingo Arrieta.
The Villista forces are said to num
ber 3,000. .
Another report brought here today
by an American who had extensive
interests In southern uiihuahua was
that Francisco Villa recently sent a
communication to Canuto Reyes, his
former lieutenant, who was recently
amnestized by the de facto govern
ment, asking him to reconsider nis
decision. This message Reyes turned
over to General Jacinto Trevino, Car
ranzists commander of the army of
the north, it is said. The American
asserted he had definite information
that Villa at the time he sent for
Reyes was at San Juan Bautispo.
about thirty miles south of Farral,

Other cesons arriving her today
said they had heard reports that Villa

United States who are serving with
in their departments. Application
for discharge must be made in due
form! through military channels to
the department commanders that the

ceptance of recruits having relatives
depending on them for support."

(Continued from aw. 1.)
After taking out that $69,000,000 to
make good the $266,000,000, we will
then have over $100,000,000 in the
general balance fund.
Bonds for Mexican Mix.
"We propose to finance any possi
ble trouble with Mexico or any other
nation, as this nation and all other
nations have always financed such
emergencies, by the issuance of
bonds."
Representative Fordney of Michi
gan, ranking republican member of
the ways and means committee, at
tacking the proposal for a tax on in
comes, declared the income tax was
a burden being imposed on the north
ern states by the south. The twelve
southern states which control the
democratic house caucus, he said,
have 27 per cent of the country's pop
ulation but pay only 6.4 per cent of
the income tax.
Representative Hill of Connecticut,
another repjublican, declared the bill
"probably puts a heavier burden of
taxation upon the American people
than any other one measure in the
history of the republic."
Delay Action on
Training Eesolution
New York, July 6. The subject of
military training in the public
schools, which has been engrossing
the delegates to the annual conven
tion of the National Educational as
sociation, was held in abeyance to
day as far as official action was con
cerned. The convention wilt hear the
report of the committee on resolu
tions tomorrow.
Dr. Woods Hutchinson, in an ad
dress before the department of child
hygiene today, said military training
in the schools "may prove the great
emancipator to free our system of
education from the clerical shackles
and classical absurdities of the past
and place it upon a hygienic basis."
Educational preparation for for
eign consuls and salaries and pen

Washington Dry . r
Law Crippled by
flrmrt "Dfir.ision
c..i Wa.ii Ti.1v ft. Citv and
JCflltK-l IV JJ f
county officials here were m some
what of a quandary today as to the
extent of their authority under the
prohibition law in view of a state su
preme court decision yesterday which
held that it is not illegal for a person
to possess for personal use any
amount of liquor, providing it was ob
tained in a legal manner.
The court's ruling ordered the dis
missal of charges against W. E. Boe
ing and John C. Eden, Seattle million
aires, accused of having more than
the legal amount of liquor in their
possession, and orders the return to
them of several thousand dollars
worth of wines seized by the sheriff
in raids on Mr. Boeing's home and
the Raineir club last winter.
The decision held that the provision
of the prohibition law limiting the
amount of liquor in a person's posses
sion to two quarts of whisky and
twelve quarts i of beer, applied only
to cases where the liquor was kept '
for the purpose Of sale. A dissenting
opinion held that the decision virtu
ally annulled the prohibition law and
would made it impossible to secure
convictions of persons having liquor
with illegal intent. -
