FOOLED AGAlN.-At a late hour
last evening, the reportorial corps OF
the TINES was incontinently stam-
peded from the sanctum by the rush
and hurry of mass of people hurry
ing down Main street, as on evil pur-
pose bent. The recent salutary pro-
ceedings of the "60l" at Carson at
first led our staff To think it possible
that similar scene was about to be
enacted here. Not Knowing who
might be the victim, our special re-
porter on suicide and murder items

found at last that no one was 10 be

LATEST DISPATCHES.
Tucson, December %.

Tucson, December %.
Samuel Hughes, a citizen of this
place has just arrived from Sonora
and reports that Ex-Governor Iske-
guerra, with force of 600 troops,
are encamped just south of the line,
and General Sermo, with about 300
revolutionists are In Arizona, just
across the line, having returned
from Sonora last Saturday on the
advance of Pesquera's forces. The
stock of the inhabitants of Santa
Cruz, Sonora, have been driven back
by Pesquera's troops. The latter
sent messenger to the people as
surfing them that those peacefully in
clined would be protected. Sermo
captured the messenger and now
holds him as prisoner. On receipt
of this intelligence Governor SAT-
ford telegraphed General Kantz ask
ing him to send such forces as he
might deem necessary to drive the
armed forces across the line into
Sonora and TO prevent the forces of
the other side from crossing to Ari
Eona. The adherents of Sermo dis
credit these reports and insist that
war on the Pesquera Government
will continue even if they have to
fight from the rock line of the
Apaches. 1t is certain that the rev.
olutionists have more sympathizers
than active participants, and so far
have gained no foothold upon So
nora soil.
SAN DIEGO, December %.
A dispatch from Campo last night
gives no further news of a startling
character. The place is well guard
ed and the people are confident OF
being able to etfeetually resist any
attach the "border bandits may
make. The Mexican officials have
visited Campo aud assured the citi-
zens that they will do the utmost to
prevent trouble.

The Topeka Times SAYS: A telegram
was received here this morning announcing
the accidental killing, at Dodge City, of
Nelson Souther, son Of W. G.. Souther, OF
this city. Nels. was braking on a freight
train, missed his footing, fell of the car
and on the track, ten car, passing over his

their son. The accident happened about 2
O'Clock this morning.
The remains of Nelson Sou,her. saws
the Commonwealth, arrived from the west
yesterday. There were few traces of injury
about the body, 70 few as to indicate that
more than one car had passed over the
body. He was on the engine at the time
the train broke in two, and he took his
lantern and ran back to the break. The
engineer saw Souther's lantern disappear,
and stopped his train as soon az possible.
Mr.. Souther was found ten or fifteen feet
behind the caboose, lying dead, with his
face outside the rail- The theory is that
he fell between the rails and that moe
than one truck Of the last car passed over
his BODY.
