aiu' is awaiting the action of the
Texas grand jury, which is investi
gating tae charges, continually i
w«e:»s in his cell and is apparently :
iuu.*h de'-rotssed by his treatment by j
Amer'can officials who preferred,
the charges against him.
Washington, D. C., July S — It
U :j developed here today that tho.

lug into court, as General Huerta
lias promised to leave the Mexican
border and reside in the northern

HIS FUNERAL j
MLLITIEflBED
l'arls, July 7—The funeral of
foruuT Prssuletit Porfirio Diaz of

was attended by representsvrs of
trio various governments having
vuibafsies here as well as by a j
h'.r^e concourse of peoylo from the
KEEPS QUIE
S-.'ward Gateway: W\ E. Dunicle,
who has been ia Broad Pass since
List .February for the Guggenheim?,
returned yesterday afternoon, but
prefers uot to give out for publica
tion his views on the mining out
in that region. The only fact
which be could be got to mention is
that rhe miners in there are picking
ua new finds all the time. When
;:^ked as to the extent of the finds,
the v. idth of the ledges already
Known to exist, the result of the
iiSsiayg made of the ore he declared
mereiy that he would not want to be
(juot d. He admitted, however, that
lie wu return to Broad Pass from
-1 i"d ^ soouas ho has had com
judication with the outside. Some
fifty or sixty meu are inthe district,
most of whom are prospecting for
themselves but 110 untoward event
occurred with the exception of a
miners' meeting which was called to
investigate the looting of a cache. A
suspected individual was ordered to
leave the caniD but he refused to
obey and declared his innocence. The
man had the supplies taken from the
cache iu his possession but he was
able to tell at least a plausible story
and the evidence was purely circum
stantial. This man left the dis
trict, just before Mr. Dunkle did,
ostensibly for supplies. Quite a
few people are going Into Broad
Pass but the work has not pro
gressed sufficiently to give any esti
mate of its merits. Mr. Dunkle could
not say what the general opinion of
other* who are there was of the
camp as he depended entirely on liis
own examination, so there is nothing
new by which to judge except that
he is rot urn lag.
