Mexico City. Sept.* -Pedro Za- Dr George Ellis. prominent

morn, the Jalisco bandit, has threat-1 ^jlprman> died in Fayettevlile,
ened to execute W. A. (Handy) (iardi- Ark., Thursday afternoon at 4:80

:ii nervous shock of a fall received
American citizen, and W.
Ji liuson, a British subject, who were
kidnapped by Zamora's band at Guaie
on August. 20. This information has
been given government authorities by
deserting inembers of the Za mora
force*, who say that the threat to kill
the two captives may lie put into cx-
ccutiou if the men are
immediately, according
not ransomed
to dispatches
several days ago. The body arrives in
Hherman shortly before noon Friday,
and arrangements made for holding
the funeral services.
I)r. Ellis, accompanied by Mrs. El-
lis. went to Fayettevlile about one
month ago. The trip was made both
in the Interest of Dr. Ellis' health and
to be at the bedside of the little ion of
mrlved from military headquarters at, - „all of this city,
(/inmlalajara. 1
it is reported -Zainoru
lias refused
to aiiMwer <«ommunleations from the
government, presumably relating to the
re'ease of the two prisoners, and It is
naiii he has increased the amount of
ransom requested. The Esperanzu
Mining Company, which employed
Gardiner, at Cuale, is holding the ran-
som money ready, upon advice of the
Culled States consul here, but it is tie-
dared it has not been able to com-
municate with the outlaw.
The government Is exerting every
effort to secure the release of the two
men without paying ransom, which
otlicinls way, might encourage every
potential bandit chief to enter the
business of capturing and holding
foreigners until paid large amounts.
Federal trops are said to be close be-
hind /annua, who is reported to have
sought refuge near the El I'andal
mountains iu western Jalisco.

who was 111 here. Dr. Ellis was re-
cuperating nicely until about ten days
ago when he joined a picnic party
near Fayetjteville and on the outing ate

tack of indigestion. A few days later

to see the Americans, ami apparently
bore them no ill feeling for their part
in the war.
Twa Days in Berlin.
Mr. Hauer spent two days in Ber-
llu oud three days In Breslau, whlri
Is seventy miles from the Polish fron-
tier. The unsettled conditions in that-
country prevented him from going
through. At Oderberg. Mr. Sauer-
with fourteen other Americans, were
forced to r-tnrn sevent^-slx miles W
have their Italian vise's approved.
Mr. Sauer's parents reside in Pilsei.
and are 70 and 00 years of age. Hav-
ing left home as a lud of sixteen, his
parents did not, of course, recognise
him.
Besides visiting his parents In Pll-
sen, Mr. Sauer visited ills two broth-
ers. who are engaged in the linen
manufacturing business in Prague, the
capltnl of Cxeeho-Hlovakla. and a sis-
ter. While there he attended the wed-
diug of one of bis brothers, which had
been postponed until his arrival.
French Give Americans No Credit.
On his return Mr. Sauer visited
some of the battlefields of France
The French people give the Ameri-
cans no credit whatever for winning
the war, Mr. Sauer states, but now
say that had America stayed ont they
would have been able to win eventual-
ly. Tourist travel is very heavy in
France ami other countries of EUrope-
at present, Mr. Sauer declared. Many
American firms are buying toys In
Germany. Prices aje - nS-, higher In
these countries than In America. The
trip by air from Paris to London can
be made for about $7.fi0 In American
money. There is a regular passenger
carrying service between these two
cities. Paris lias' reverted to all of
the conditions of before the war
which gave It. the name of the wicked-
est city In the world, according to Mi.
Sailer's observations.
Mr. Sauer traveled to Paris from
Pilseu on a through train running
from Warsaw to Paris. It Is h first
class train, made up entirely of sleep-
ers and diners, and making but four
stops between Warsaw and Paris. The
train is faster than many In America,
but the fare Is higher.
Quick Trip lo New York.
From Paris. Mr. Saner went to
Cheerburg. an eight hour ride from
Paris, where he embarked on the Mau-
rentanla, the fastest vessel afloat. He
left there at 0 p. m. and arrived ki
New York harbor at d a. m. last Sat-
urday. Home delay in landing was oc-
casioned by the longshoremen's strike
iu New York, which delays the unload-
inf of vessels and their clearing for
other vessels to enter. Twenty-seven
hundred passengers, tn'cllidlng many
immigrants, were on the ship In addi-
tion to the crew of OOO. Few of the
immigrants traveled as steerage pas-
sengers as In former days. Mr. Sauei
