Yaquis Trained By Maderistas Now
Turn Bandits.
Slaughter Follows Victory of In
dians -Young Women Carried
Oft Into Mountains.
El Paso, Tex.— Yaqui Indians, after
an attack lasting two days, have cap
tured the Sonora town o f San Marcial
slaughtered many o f the inhabitants
and carried otf several girls to the
mountains.
The inhabitants o f the town, the
Bpecial says, fought until their ammu
nition gave out, when the Indians,
who attacked in force o f several hun
dred, gained entrance.
Scenes of
terrific slaughter followed, only a few
escaping to carry the tale to the out
side world.
The Indians retreated to
the mountiatins, carrying the young
women with them.
San Marcial is in the center o f the
Sonora ctal district, a little more than
60 miles southeast of Hermosillo, This
is the first time so far as known here
where Yaquis successfully assaulted so
large a town.
The Indians are said to' be using
military tactics acquired during two
years o f training in Maderos forces to
advantage, gathering force 'until they
have practically what might be termed
an army. A ll are armed with high-
power rifles secured during the gov
ernment service.
Official apprehension o f another re
bel attack on Juarez was aroused by
the operations o f the Yaquis in San
Marcial.
A recommendation from the State
department in Washington in Septem
ber that 1000 men be kept rn Juarez to
avoid a repetition o f the casualties in
cidental to the Madero revolution has
not been complied with. The town
has a garrison o f 500 men and a small
artillery force.
TA FT ENROUTE TO ISTHMUS
jffB B c a a r o i
London The peace conference was
launched only to be interrupted by a
complication resulting from the policy
o f Greece in waging war and negotiat
ing peace simultaneously. The Turk
ish delegation announced that it was
empowered to confer only with the
three Balkan kingdoms which signed
the armistice at Tchatalja, and as a
consequence adjournment was taken to
obtain instructions.
A ll the conferees expressed the be
lie f that the suspension is merely tem
porary and that a’ pathway toward the
resumption o f the meetings will be
found.
The prospects for a successful issue
o f the conference are enhanced by the
declaration o f the Turks that they
have plenary powers to arrange and
sign a treaty o f peace. How far their
improved military position, with the
encouragement Austiia is credited
with giving them, may stiffen their
backs against the allies’ terms re
mains in doubt.
The first sitting o f the ambassador
ial court o f ^appeals, as it is called,
was held in the foreign office.
The
ambassadors o f five continental powers
conferred with Sir Edward Grey, the
British secretary for foreign affairs,
for more than three hours. The differ
ent nations advanced their views on
the Eastern problem.
The contingency that mediation may
offer the only solution o f the war has
been the subject o f much discussion.
The heads of the Bulgarian and Serv
ian delegations, in interviews, recog
nized that the United States might be
in a position to act as peacemaker.
The naval fight off the Dardanelles
in which both Greece and Turkey
claimed victory, was resumed Thurs
day.
Athens announces that the
Greek army is about to capture Janina.
The friction between Austria and
Servia appears not to have abated.
The Servians complain that Austrian
gunboats in the Danube are indulging
in provocative tactics, throwing their
searchlights on Belgrade, which has
caused a panic among the residents.

“ Human Bomb” Gets Writ.
Los Angeles — Attorneys for Carl
Riedelbach, the “ human bomb,” who
captured the Central police station
some weeks ago, obtained a w rit of
habeas corpus directing the county au
thorities to appear in court Monday
and show cause why the prisoner
should not be released. Riedelbach’s
attorneys argued before Judge Willis,
o f the Superior court, that their client
had committed no crime, according to
the state’s statutes. He merely ap
peared at the central station carrying
an infernal machine.
Naval Battle Is a Draw.
Sedil-Bahr, Dardanelles — Another
naval battle was begun between the
Turkish and Greek fleets Thursday
morning near the entrance to the Dar
danelles. The firing was heavy.
A fte r the naval battle off the Dar
danelles, the Turkish warships re
turned to their anchorage with flags
flying and bands playing amid the en
thusiastic applause of the crowds lin
ing'the shore.
According to an eye witness who
verifies the official report o f the en
gagement, after a long-range ex
change o f shots, the smaller Greek
vessels retired, leaving the pride o f
the Greek navy, the cruiser Georgio
Averoff, to bear the brunt o f the fight
ing. The cruiser seemeij.'to be using
only her small

showed signs o f having been sturck by
three or four shells.

Robbers Find Bank Empty.
Tremonton, Utah — A fte r laboring
half the night to break into the old
concrete money vaults o f the State
Bank o f Tremonton, four robbers were
dismayed to discover that the bank had
moved away the day before.
Miss
Anna Rauber, a telephone exchange
operator in the building opposite, dis
covered the men just as they broke
through the three-foot walls. She tel
ephoned Marshal Brown and a running
fight followed, but the robbers escaped
in a buggy stolen from a physi
cian.
Servians Drunk With Future.
Puts Eggs in Her Hose.
Richmond, Cal.— Mrs. D. Kavinet,
a shoplifter, was caught with enough
eggs in her stockings to make a family
omelet. Eggs have disappeared every
time she visited a market, conducted
by T. D. Morgan. He marked some of
the eggs and waited.
They faded
from sight on her next visit to the
market and Morgan called a policeman.
A woman at the jail made a search
and reported nothing doing in the egg
line. Morgan averred that Mrs. K avi
net had the eggs.
More searching
brought them to view in her stocking.
Aid for Park Asked.
Washington, D. C.— Senator Cham
berlain has been urged by the Mazama
society, o f Portland, to aid in obtain
ing an appropriation o f $250,000 from
this congress for widening the road
into the Mount Rainier National park,
in the State o f Washington, from the
south construction o f the branch road
to the Indian Henry hunting grounds,
the construction o f horse trails in the
park and the survey for a highway into
the park along Carbon river.
Garrison Has Typhoid.
Hanau, Germany— An epidemic o f
typhoid fever has broken out among
the troops o f the garrison here. Two
hundred and eleven soldiers are lying
in hospitals suffering from the disease.
The river Main is believed to be in
fected and i f this is proved to be so,
the health o f the entire population
will be imperiled.
Paris — “ The Servians are drunk
with the future and forgetful o f the
past, and perhaps o f the present,” ac
cording to Rudolph Sieghart, who was
recently appointed governor o f the
Credit Foncier o f Austria by Emperor
Francis
Joseph.
W ritin g to the
Temps, Sieghart complains o f what he
calls the campaign o f detraction and
suspicion against Austrian policy cur
rent in Europe. The Austrian govern
ment, he says, has been observing for
some time the massing o f Russian
troops on the Austrian frontier.
Flynn Succeeds Wilkie.
Washington, D. C. — William J.
Flynn, o f New York, was appointed
chief o f the United States secret serv
ice by Secretary MacVeagh, o f the
Treasury department, succeeding John
E. W ilkie, chief supervising agent
of the customs service.
For many
years Mr. Flynn has been in charge of
the New York division o f the secret
service, and during the early days of
Mayor Gaynor’s administration was
deputy police commissioner.
Swiss Prepare Against War.
Berne, Switzerland— The Swiss gov

A con

the expected note o f representation
this government is preparing to send
to the Mexican government demanding
protection for citizens and their prop
erty.
This action is taken as a further
evidence o f the intention o f the ad
ministration to
deal circumspectly
with this delicate situation. The com
munication is being prepared with the
greatest care in the State department,
and will be transmitted to the United
States ambassador early in January.
The deliberation with which the
officials are moving is expected to re
sult in the ’production o f a b rief that
is expected to be well-nigh unanswer
able except by a promise o f prompt
and adequate action on the part o f the
Mexican government to meet fairly
and fully the demands o f the United
States in the matter o f the plain
American interests in Mexico.
Justification for this demand by the
United States is declared to be found
in the numerous reports from every
quarter that conditions in Mexico have
grown worse since the dispatch o f
Secretary Knox’s note o f protest last
September, and that there has been a
marked increase in brigandage and ’ n
the kidnaping o f citizens o f the Uni
ted States for ransom and in the levy

launches o f the Arkansas, together
with Mrs. T a ft and the remainder of
the presidential party, and was taken
to the battleships.
A few minutes
later both the Arkansas and the Dela
ware, which will act as an escort, had
weighed anchor and were steaming out
o f the harbor.

The presidential party will spend
three days in the canal region.
Pres
ident T a ft plans to get back to Key
W est on December 29, and two days
later to be in Washington.
Investigations o f conditions in the
canal zone to determine whether the
time is opportune for establishing civil
government there is the announced
purpose o f the presdent’s visit. Mr.
T a ft has said that he expected to issue
the order establishing civil govern
ment immediately i f he found condi
tions favorable.
The president for six hours rode
through the fruit-bearing country o f
Florida and part o f the everglades.
His train then passed out over the
open sea railroad extension.
A spe
cial observation car had been attached
to the train in Miami and the Presi
dent spent much time in it.
A short talk was made by President
T a ft in Miami, in addition to the one
here. In both addresses he said he
thought it incumbent upon him to es
tablish civil government in the Pana
ma Canal region and not leave the
task to President-elect Wilson.

you stole the watch of the doctor who
had Just written a prescription for
you at the free dispensary.

hole. His prescription said a spoonful
every hour, and I had no watch.”
