' Tapestries Sold
For $2,000,000
Purchasers of Famous Collec

Bought for Any American or
; European Collector
(By Associated Frees.)
NEW YORK. April 11.—Art experts
declare that the sale of forty tapestries
composing the J. P. Morgan collection
1 for approximately >2,v00,000, announced
today, is the largest single transaction
ever made in such works of art. The
' tapestries are now on exhibition in the
Metropolitan Museum of Art where they
were placed by the late J. P. Morgan, Sr.,
along with other collections of paint
ings. furniture, sculptures and porce
lains of a total estimated value of from
550,000,000 to 875.000.000.
The firm of art dealers to whom the
tapestries were sold stated that the col
lection was not bought for any American
or European collector. They were col
lected during the last fifteen years of
the elder Mr. Morgan's Ilfs on ths advice
of well known experts.
The most notable tapestry in the col
lection Is the Mazarin, once owned by
the famous French cardinal. This is
considered one of the world’s greatest
tapestries. It dates from about the year
15ew and its subject is “The Triumph
of Christ and the New Dispensation.”
Another notable example Is the Dollfus
“Crucifixion’ woven about 1525 from a
design created by the Flemish artist,
Bernard Van Orley.
Twenty-one tapestries comprising the
Knole collection are included in the
sale. Os these one of the most notable is
the St. Veronica. Others are entitled
“The Tournament” and “The Knight’s
Repentance,” great panels more than
thirteen feet in height and twenty-three
feet long. Another well known piece is
the “Esther and Ahasuerus” dating
f-om the second quarter of the fifteenth
century t>ad showing Esther kneeling at
the throne of Xerxes.
The noted set of tapestries once
owned by the king of Spain acquired by
Mr. Mongan, it Is said, for >350,000 and
representing episodes in the Don Quixote
story are included in the Morgan collec
| tion Others represent scenes from the
comedies of Moliere woven in Beauvais
in the eighteenth century.

DEATH OF VILLA IS
HUMORED POBPOSEW
TO IMHIS TRAIL
Mexican Leaders Believe
American Cavalry Pursued
Rear Guard While Chief
Sought Safe Hiding Place
lßy Aaaociated Proas.)
EL FASO, Tex., April 12. —Masking his
tnui with the fiction spread broadcast
by peons that he had died of his wounds,
Francinco Villa is thought t>y Mexican
military officers in Juarez, to be safely
hidden away today in the Sierra Madre
mountains, while the American cavalry
are pursuing a rear guard band of ban
dits, whose strategy it is to beguile Vil
la’s pursuers away from his hiding place.
Mexican followers of Villa say it was
a favorite trick of the bandit leader,
when the chase became hot, to have the
story spread that he was dead. Army
ou.cers at Fort Bliss declare that if the
Villa death story Is a hoax it not
affect the pursuit of the “fox of the
Sierras.”
General Pershing has established a
new base at Satevo, according to infor
mation here, but no word has come from
the flying columns of American cavalry
under Colonels Dodd ana Brown, whose
pursuit is said to have extended beyond
Parral. There are reports that the ad
vance columns have been forced to halt
until the line of communications has
been established south of Satevo.
There is nothing official here or at
army headquarters at Columbus to con
firm a report that troops K and M, Sev
enth cavalry killed a number of ’ Villa
bandits and captured thirty-five others
last Saturday south of Satevo. Military
officers at Columbus do not credit the
report.
Supplies In Increasing quantities are
being steadily forwarded to Casas
Grandes, Namlquipa and other points.
Army Supplie.s Are Being
Forwarded on Mexican Roads
(By A»»oci*ted Proxx.)
WASHINGTON, April 12.—Reports of
a battle between -troopers of the Sev
enth cavalry and Villa bandits south
of Namiquipa were not mentioned In
the war department’s early dispatches
today and there was no further mention
of the reported death of Villa.
Major General Funston reported the
progress of a new plan for sending
supplies forward to Brigadier General
Pershing's columns. A trial shipment
of forage has been sent over the Mex
ican Central line, which has a more di
rect line to Chihuahua than the Mexican
Nortwestern. Nine cars of hay and oats
for the cavalry compose the shipment
which probably vyill be transferred to
the Mexican Northwestern at Chihuahua
and sent on south.
“If this shipment is successful,” Gen
eral Funston reported, “other large ones
will follow. It is hoped the shipment
will reach General Pershing through the
American consul at Chihuahua."
Major General Scott said today that
direct use of the Mexican Central, in
that way. Instead of shipping through
mining companies or brokers would
greatly simplify supplying the troops.
PROTEST THAT CENSORS
IN CANADA OPEN MAIL
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, April 11.—Several
protests have been made to the post
office department recently by the postal
authorities at offices along the Canadian
border that American letters have been
opened in the dominion and passed upon
by a censor. No action nas been taken
and it was understood today to be the
feeling of officials here that mall in
Canada is subject to such regulations as
the Canadian government may make.

Vilia Gave Out
Story oj Death
To Fool Troops
Reliable Mexican Cattieman
Tells How Bandit’s Men
Boasted of Deceiving “Grin
goes” With False Rumors
(By Axsociated Press.)
EL PASO, Tex., April 12. —An entire
ly new version of the story of Villa's
death was brought here today by a
Mexican cattleman, who claimed to have
suffered a visitation from a band of
Villa followers on his ranch near Bach
iniba. This man said that Villa was
neither dead nor wounded, but that Pab
lo Lopez, the bandit’s notorious lieu
tenant and executioner-in-chief, had died
and that Villa had deliberately used his
death as the basis of the story of his
own finish.
The cattleman told the following sto
ry:
“I was in Guerrero at the time Villa
came there and afterwards when the
American soldiers arrived I believed it
was safe for me to return to my ranch.
“Last Thursday a band of twenty of
Villa’s men rode up to the ranch house.
They to >k a little grain that I had and
killed one of my cows and had a great
feast. They had several bottles of liquor
that they had secured at Guerrero and
Minaca and got pretty drunk before they
were through.
RIDICULED SOLDIERS.
“They ridiculed the American soldiers
and boasted about the way Villa had
fooled the ‘gringoes’ by sending guides
to the American officers with stories of
different places in which he was hiding.
Then they talked about Lopez and said
he was dying and that as soon as he
was dead the gringoes would be told
it was Villa and then they would all
go home. • •
“They did not say anything different
about the whereabouts of the Villa ban
dits, but I understood from their talk
that he was far to the south and that
they were under orders to meet him
somewhere near Parral.”
The Mexican who told this story Fs
well known to several Americans here
who considered him .reliable.
Villa’s ride south has been a disas
trous one for the villages and the small
towns through which he has raided, ac
cording to numerous reports received
here. His men have looted at will and
have been ruthless in their destruction
of property. Several reports relate in
stances of women being assaulted and of
Mexicans who were shot because of their
supposed friendliness to Americans, but
none of them has been corroborated.
Practically every naan in El Paso has
a map of Mexico on which he picks out
a new location for the fugitve bandit
daily, but the most reliable information
is to the effect that he is in northern
Durango, trying to arrange for a con
centration for the Villa adherents who
have been operating under Canuto Reyes.
