Evening Republican, Volume 18, Number 60, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 11 March 1914 — Huerta Must Punish The Slayers of Vergara. [ARTICLE]
Huerta Must Punish The Slayers of Vergara.
Secretary Bryan has informed Huerta that he must sec that the murderers of Clemente Vergara, the Texas ranger whose body was mysteriously brought to the American side of the border, must be punished. This is the nearest act of recognition this country has given to Huerta’s government since he caused the assassination of Madero and assumed the presidency. There is to be no complication because the body of Vergara was restored to his widow on this side of the border. It was not performed by Texas rangers as at first reported but was an act of individuals who were rewarded by Vergara’s widow. F. T. Cromwell, a mining man from Vancouver, B. C., is reported missing from Sonora, Mex., since last December. He Is wealthy and an investigation is to he made.
