Carranga’s commission is said to have gathered convincing evidence that coh Fidel Avila, commander of the rebel garrison in Juares, ordered the execution of Gustav Bauch, a Ger- man-American, who was tried as @ spy, but in whore case no verdict was rendered. Denials that Bauch was killed have been made repeatedly by rebel officers at Juarez and at Chi- huahua. Gen. Fraustro, Prest of the commission appointed by Car. rant to investigate the death of Benton and the disappearance of Bauch, to-day tsaued a denial that the commission has made any report in the matter to Gen. Carranza or to anybody else. He branded as false the report circulated here that the commission had found that both Ben- ton and Rauch were murdered and that two high officers of Villa’s army, one in Juarez and one in Chihuahua, were the murderers. Fraustto said that If Major Fierro had been arrost- ed 4t was not on commission's order or recommendation.
