Inspector Says Lieut. Saenz Was His Actual Assailant.
Special to The New York Times.
    EL PASO, Texas, July 28.— United States Immigration Inspector Charles B. Dixon, who was shot at Juarez Saturday, is now in the El Paso Hospital, and the doctors have given him fresh assurances that he will live. In Juarez the men who were implicated in his arrest are being held by the Federal military authorities, and an investigation has been ordered by President Huerta. Lieut. Saenz, the half-breed Mexican negro, is being held as the one who fired the shot which passed through Dixon's body.
    Dixon was able to-day to tell the story of the shooting. He says he was trying to reach the office of the Mayor, Guillermo Cruz, in the Municipal Building, when shot. With a bullet through his body he outran his guards and fell only half a block from the Municipal Building. He says Saenz fired all four of the shots from the high-power rifle which he carried, the others of the squad having only six-shooters.
    Arthur Walker, the negro who is supposed to have framed up the arrest of Dixon and to have planned his subsequent execution, has also been arrested. The case against Dixon for kidnapping will not be tried for at least four weeks, if at all.
    The Americans who planned an invasion of Juarez to get Dixon to the American side Saturday night were persuaded not to make the attempt by friends of Dixon, who insisted that he would be killed in the attempt.
