San Antonio, Tex., June 27.—A special
'to the Express from Del Rio says:
Las Vacas, a small town in Mexico
across the Rio Grande from Del Rio, was
attacked at 5 o’clock yesterday morning
by about one hundred bandits. Capt.
Herrez, in command of the Mexican
troops, was wounded in the first attack.
Nester Lopez of Del Rio was killed. Bas-
sillo rtamirez, a United States citizen,
was also wounded and brought into Del
Rio.
It is impossible to ascertain if there
were any further casualties. Some build-
ings in the town were burned,
thousand shots were fired.

Thaw has obtained a new writ of ha-

Court Justice Mills at White Plains
Monday morning, when counsel for

trial to pass upon his mental condition.
The writ was served this morning,
Undersheriff Townsend, in anticipation
of Judge Morschauser’s signing the or-
der, at 11 o’clock this morning recom-
mitting Thaw to Matreawan. The writ
has the effect of holding Thaw here

Stock Market Remains Dull Through-
out the Entire Day.
By Associated Press.
New York, June ^7.—The stock mar-
ket opened today without any decided
tone, some of the most prominent is-
sues starting at prices unchanged from
yesterday. St. Louis and San Fran-
cisco second preferred advanced 1%
and Atchison %. The market closed
heavy and lifeless. The drift of prices
in the second hour was downward. The
decline was slightly emphasized in the
final dealings.
Advices reached here this morning
that William Heineman, formerly of
Galveston and for two or three years
a resident of this city, shot and killed
his wife and himself last night at Mar-
shal], Tex. Details were not given be-
yond the fact that family troubles
presumed to be responsible for
double tragedy.
Heineman was a journeyman tinner
and worked at his trade in Galveston
for two years or more, having come
here from up the state, and left here
last fall for Longview, Tex. He was
about 34 years of age and had a wife
and two children—a boy about 7 years
old and a girl about 4 years—when the
family left here.
His friends , in Galveston say he was
of a very jealous disposition and that
while his wife was a devoted and lov-
able woman and companion, Heipe-
man frequently quarreled with her.

Six days later he went back and was
examined. There were no indications
of a return of the condition, and he
was finally discharged with instruc-
tions to return at once if he was
troubled with headaches. He did not
return to the hospital, but on Satur-
day last noted a slight feeling of pa-
ralysis of the right hand and arm. This
numbness reached his throat and Dr.
Pothier hearing of the case went at
once to the deceased’s home where,
with a consultation with Dr. P. A.
Moore, the case was declared hopeless.
It was simply a matter of time, the
expert said, until death would come,
as nothing could be done to save the
patient.
Mrs. James Finnigan of 917 Milan
street, sister of the deceased, was also
bitten by the same dog. She took the
same treatment but is apparently cured

Princeton, N. J., June 27.—Grover
Celeveland’s body lies buried today in
the Cleveland plot in Princeton ceme-
tery. At 6 o’clock, yesterday afternoon,
just as the sun was sinking in the west,
a distinguished company silently
watched as the body was lowered into
the grave. Then the simple burial
service of the Presbyterian church was
read and before the last of the car-
riages in the cortege had driven up the
path leading to the burial place the
benediction had been pronounced and
the members of the family, President
Roosevelt and others who had gathered
about the grave were leaving the-
cemetery.
Many of the personal friends of the
dead statesman lingered about the spot
which was to mark his last resting
place and each in turn was permitted to
cast a shovel full of earth into the
grave.
Agreeable to the wishes of Mrs.
Cleveland, the services, both at the
house and at the cemetery, were of the
simplest character. An invocation,
scriptural reading, a brief prayer and
the reading of William Wadsworth’s
poem, ‘‘Character of the Happy War-
rior,” constituted the services at the
house, while the reading of the burial
service at the grave was brief and im-
pressive.

El Paso, Tex., June 27.—In an encoun-
ter between revolutionists and troops of
the Mexican government at the town of
Las Vacas, in Coahuila, Mexico, near
the border, across from Del Rio, Texas,
early yesterday, between 40 and 50 men
were killed alnd the commandant of the
Mexican troops was badly injured,
cording to advices received here last
night. Tlie story of the battle as re-
ceived here is as follows: The quarters
of the Mexican officers and barracks
were fired upon by the attacking band
and the assault centered upon the fed-
eral customs house. Forty troops were
finally assembled.
In the disorder following the initial at-
tack upon the barracks and the discov-
ery that the quarters of the soldiers were
burning, the revolutionists captured about
sixty horses belonging to the Mexican
cavalry.
At the custom house the troops made a
determined stand and the fighting lasted
all morning without intermission. It is
nnid that five thousand shots were
changed.
CUT ALL WIRES.
The revolutionists cut all telephone and
telegraph wires leading to Las Vacas
and thus prevented the besieged town
from sending for reinforcements.
After heavy firing until
the attacking party was repulsed and
communication was established out of
Las Vacas. Troops were rushed to the
place and were expected to arrive there
late last night, but advices from Del Rio
say that a second outbreak was feared
before the arrival of assistance.
The sheriff of Vai Verde county, this
state, telegraphed Gov. Campbell of Tex-
as that the revolutionists had been, re-
pulsed and that many of them were flee-
ing to the United States.
The sheriff asked the governor if ne
could apprehend the fugitives for vio-
lation of the neutrality laws. Under ad-
vica from the attorney general, Gov.
Campbell advised the sheriff that ths

dential nomination, and during the heated term will endeavor so far as
possible to obtain a rest in preparation for the strenuous campaign work:
to come in the late summer and fall.

tions for the reception of the Prince of Wales and the celebration at

New Yor* June 27.—The Clyde line
Bteamship cnippewa, which struck a
rock near Montauk Wednesday morning,
is still hara aground and will probably
prove a totak loss. Since Thursday,
thousands oi watermelons - have been
thrown into the sea and hundreds of
persons, many from the Connecticut
shore, have visited the scene in power
and sail boats to gather the rich harvest.
Whenever a melon is washed ashore
there' is a wild scramble among the beach
combers to reach it. The opportunity for
such a feast of ripe melons is not often
seen on the Long Island shore and the
inhabitants are eager in grasping it. The
wrecking tugs are still standing by the
ill-fated vessel and may make an effort
to float her when she is lightened of her
cargo.

logg was summoned to Oyster Bay by
