Witnesses who can give the jurors detailed and accurate information along these lines have been subpoenaed and appeared at tha investigation today.

The session today was devoted to the exam­ ination of men employed at the Chi­ cago* stockyards and packing houses.

A p ril 9.— John St Clair, a well known prospector, whose statements are considered reliable, has returned from the Yaqni country near Urea,'Sonora, and reporta that the In ­ diana are still on the warpath. He says that Malpuche, the old chief, is at the head o f a band of over 60 and ia devastating the whole country, mur­ dering, pillaging and burning. Grain and cotton ranches are being abandoned and the people are goi£g into the towns for protection - The whole country is in a state of panic. Mail routes between the small towns have been abandoned and pro­ visions are getting scarce. Although the country ia overran with soldiers, he says, the Indians are fearless and continue their depredations. St. Clair does not believe it is safe for Americans to go into tbe Yaqni country at this time, as tbe Yaqnis are very hostile to Americans. W h ile going from Ures to his camp in the mountains, St. Clair heard firing and ran into what had been an Indian ambuscade. He found two dead Mex­ icans who had been killed only a few minutes before be reached the place. Tbe Yaqnis are armed with riflea and are well supplied with cartridges, St. Clair says.
