s. FRANKFORT, KY, Dec. THE st ate
election commissioners convened this
morning with, thin crowd of specta-
tors. Judge Thomas!F. Hargis closed
his argument. He devoted the greater
part of his time to the Louisville con-
test, contsnding the en- tire vote of the
city should be thrown out because of
the militia being at the polls, the
usurpation of Judge Toney, and of
fraud and intimidation generally. He
cited authorities in support of his ar
gument.
Mr.. Poyntz, member of the board,
declares that Goebel is entitled to the
certificate. and if Members Pryor and
Ellis adhere to their present view to
give Taylor the certificate, Poyntz
may in dissenting opinion set forth
his views. There is possibility of a

Among the passengers south on tn e

About these concessions the gentle
nah had nothing to say, but he both
expressed himself freely in the matter
of the Ysqui war and discovered some
interesting news.
'There has lately been severe fight

Iglesias, and, in spite of the thrashine
they are receiving and in spite of the
deputaoion of squaws recently sent to
the authorities at Guaymas, waose
message was forwarded through Ell

the Indians are ready yet to stop
fighting.
Il came out of Sonora in company
with a courier from General Luis
Torres, who carried dispatches to the
minister of war; and while could not,
OF course, see the official dispatches
which were mailed at Ortiz, 1 learned
from this orderly that there had been
heavy fighting for ten days beginning
Nov. Goth, in the direction of Tonichi,
toward which point the. Indians re-
treated. While the fighting was be.
tween small bodies, in pursuance of
the plan of guerrilla warfare
lately adopted by General Torres to
meet Indian methods, it
was general and fierce, and
the Indians were driven back to
strongly fortified positions near Sa-
huarips. Even from this position they
are expected to fall back on the main
body recently defeated by Gen. Torres
