On the night of the For ot July the management was told theatre would be burned Gown if ft were not immediately closed. The office of the Daily Star had met a similar fate and other buildings bad been blown up. The Empire took no chances. It closed. ‘The actress had to go to her hotel alone. She had no weapon, so she and all were armed,” said the little actress to-day. “I am not going to say I wasn't frightened, but I thought the miners would respect the American flag. They all wore little red flags, but by their side were small American flags, which they said meant liberty. But there was always danger of stray bullets.

JUAREZ, Mexico, Feb. 6.—Seven American railroad men are reported to be prisoners, the Great Cumbre Ratlroad tunnel through the conti- nental divide is in ruins and the Mexican Northwestern passenger train which left here Wednesday morning is a charred wreck at the Mouth of the tunnel as the result of the depredations of members of the Maximo Castillo i. bandits. ‘Thia information, amplifying repo Jast night from Chihuahua, was rv cetved here to-day at the headquar- ters of the railroad, It corrects last night's statement that it was the Drake Tunnel, a smaller bore south of Cumbre, that was destroyed. The Cumbre tunnel is the largest on the road, 8,700 feet long. ‘The names of the prisoners reported here are: M. J. Gilmartin, superin- tendent of the road; H. Bchoefield, su- perintendent of terminals at Juarez; Lee Williams, assistant manager of the railroad comminsary; E. J. Mc- Cutcheon, engineer of the passenger train; J. E. Webster, conductor; H. BE. Marsden, express agent. A seventh American is believed to have been on the train and some were also employed on the freight train which was used to fire the tunnel. Gen. Fransico Villa, commander of the rebel forces, now at Chihuahua, was enraged at the news and, in a telegram which passed through here to-day, instructed Gen. Felipe Ma- clas, operating in the Cusas Grandes district, to shoot every man who could not satisfactorily account for his presence there. ‘The dite are believed to be op- in two forces of about thirt men each, as Cumbre isa hard day’ tide from El Valle, near Casas Gran- des where twanty-one of the robbers toad captured and shot last Tues- ay. The other detachment, believed to be under Castillo himself, did the wreck- ing, probably in revenge for the fate of bis men at El Valle. He captur ® train of stock cara Wednesday and ran it into the tunnel, where it wes wet on fire. The tunnel wan ablase that eve- ning when the passenger train from Juares was captured and sent head- long into the roaring tunnel furnace, ing flames and smoke destroyed two n boring bri } one of them - structed of I, and ran twe loco- motives over the embankment into a deep canyon.

This informa- tion, as astonishing in Mexico and along the Rio Grande border as sim!- lar news affecting a Rockefeller or a Vanderbilt would be in the United States, became known here to-day with the departure of Terrazas for Pasadena, Cal. He was accompanied by his family, but not the usual ret- Inue of servants. Near Pasadena Terrazas expects to buy or lease a small farm w! he can make a modest living. He is one of those who sees no prospect of peace n bis native land and until tranquillity 1s restored the income of the vast Ter- razas family fortune, estimated at from $35,000,000 to $40,000,000, will be beyond his reach. Even in the event of peace it may be lost, for the rebels have declared it confiacated.
