Zapatistas Break Loose Again; Massacre 100 In Cars.

An indiscriminate massacre of nearly one hundred women, children and Carranza soldiers, who were travelling on a train near Contreras, state of Morelos, which was followed by Zapata followers, is reported in Mexico City newspapers. After the attack on the train the dead lay in piles beside the cars. When a relief train reached the scene of the attack several hours later, the Zapatistas had scattered into the hills.
