end came at last, and in the decisive battle
! fought on the 14th inst. Cajeme's forces
were annihilated.
But little has been heard from the seat of
war. Senior Acosta, writing from Guaymas
under date of 10th inst, says This
! morning there arrived at this port Senior
General Martinez from the Rio Yaqui, ac-
! companied by Generals Camilla Guerra
and Vega. Governor Torres was here when
they arrived, and all day they have been
| comforting over the sad situation, inasmuch
as there are thousands of families homeless
| and destitute since the recent battle with
Caieme, which lasted four days and was
most terrible in its consequences"
| Under date of 22d inst, Senior Acosta
writes as follows In few days will be
published the details of the battle of Vata-
chive, fought recently for the subjugation
OF the Yaquis- After three days desperate
fighting, the Indians succumbed to the
united arms of the State and nation. The
battle was a horrible one for among the
slain were found old men, women and
children. Cajeme had placed about 1000
families near the mouth of the CANYON in
which the action was fought, and during
the action this spot became the point where
| most OF the bombshells exploded and the
result was terrible for the Yaouis.
| Already several chiefs have presented
themselves, praying for peace aud elem
| ency, and their followers, almost 1000 in
number, have petitioned similarly up to
this date. Caieme has not been found. and
his location is unknown, but | have good
reason TO believe he is wounded, and for
this cause has been hidden by his tribe"
AN AMERICAN VIEW.
| TOMBSTONE, May 2Sth-The Yaoui war.
which was so triumphantly settled in last
nights dispatches, is not yet settled. The
settlement of the Yaqui war depends ON
the capture of Cajeme. He is the soul
and spirit OF the movement, and is looked
| upon by many Mexicans as a patriot and
| the peer OF Juarez. The Yaquis them
selves, II should be remembered, are a stall
wart and industrious race. and their chief
| Caieme, an educated man and skilled fac
ucian, having drilled in the French army.
The reported Mexican victory over 1000
| old men, women and children is here re-
| garded as bombast. The Yaauis have too
| many sympathizers, and until Caieme him
| self is captured the Yaqui war is far from
| Its termination.
| TROOPS SENT IN PURSUIT.
NoGALEs May 2Sth.-A party of Mexi-
| cans, from San Lazario, small settlement
twenty miles from here, in the Santa Cruz
| mountains, arrived from there to-day and

south. 1t is generally believed that this is
the same band who have lately been raid
| ing the country near Casita, Sonora. and
afterwards went north and committed the
many depredatlons near Tucson They
are probably now returning to the noun
| talns near Casita, and we may soon expect
to hear of more murders in that vicinity.
| Company X, Second Cavalry, Captain Ad-
ANS, stationed at this place, received orders
| from Colonel Royal TO start immediately
in pursuit of the hostiles, and scout the
country thoroughly. The troop left here
at 3 o clock P. M, accompanied by a Pima
/ indian and a Mexican, as trailers. They
] intend going to Cibula, where the Indians
| are expected to cross the railroad. In case
the troops do not arrive in time to inter
| cept the hostiles, they will take uD the
| trail and pursue until they capture or
drive them from this vicinity.
