Cattle combine is NO 1rust

NEW YORK, Aug. 4 The dispatch
from Austin, Tex, to the effect that
Attorney-General Smith has not given
consent to the forming of the cattle
combination if it constituted a trust is
correct so far as it goes, said George
b. Loving, of Fort Worth. last night.
Mr.. Loving is in New York seeking to
interest capitalists in the stablish.
ment OF an immense ranch in Texas
and New Mexico, on which GOO, 1000
cattle can be rounded up.
1--WE do not intend to create trust"
he said. 81 had some correspondence
with Attorney-General Smith and he
endorses the scheme on the lines we
pursue. A cattle trust is impracti-
cable and therefore, could not be sue
cessful. Matters are progressing
slowly but satisfactorily, ana 1 have
received an option today from one
person alone of one ranch and several
thousand acres and 10000 cattle in
New Mexico.

FOR CLOSER
ORGANIZATION
Philippines to Be Divided
Into Departments.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-A special to
the Herald from Washington says: 1t
is understood that the plan of opera
tions for the fall campaign in the Phil
ippines contemplates division of the
islands into several military depart
ments, and General Lawton will have
command of the department in which
the cavalry troops will operate. 1t is
probable that General Wheeler will be
given command of brigade of cavalry
in General Lawton's department..
The boundary line of Lawton's de-
partment will EN- mbrace the territory in
which there will probably be the
heaviest fighting, so that Lawton will
be in direct charge of the most impor
tant forces in the field, and in this way
General Otis, while not being officially
discredited, will be relieved of much
of the responsibility in connection
with the conduct of the war and will
be left free to perform the duties of
military governor.
Secretary Roots short experience in
the war department has already con-
vinced him that the views of the mill
tary commanders subordinate TO Gen.
eral Otis, who favor larger military
force than recommended by that Of
Acer, are worthy of serious considera-
tioI. There are reasons to believe he
will recommend that the force be fur
ther augmented.

INDIANS ARE
NOT IDLE
Mexico Finds Them Live
ly Foes

CHICAGO, Aug. A special to the
Tribune from the city of Mexico says
Dispatches from Guaymas show that
the Yaqui insurrection is constantly
growing in extent, and all the Indians
in the towns along the river are rising
in arms and taking tothe woods and
mountains to join their companions
already arrayed against the authorities.
Jack Ramsey, the famous frontier
character, and the American photo
grapher, E. N. Miller, were on the
way to Alamos when they were at
tackled by the Indians and killed.
1t is reported that the Romero family
were captured as they were abou. to
embark on one of the sloops and that
they were killed. Troops are pursuing
the band supposed to have the family.
The telegraph line south from Alamos
has been cut. The Indians along the
Mayo river are quiet and do not seem
to be inclined to join the insnrrection.
Colonel Angel Garcia Pena tele-
graphei yesterday that Don Carlos
Hale, the noted merchant, has not
been killed as reported. Official ad-
vices up to Monday, however. state
clearly that after General Torres
forces took Bacum they found ten dead
of the troops from Cocorit, and four of
the body guard of the Yaqui chief,
Maldonado, and the body of Hale.
They say ntohing has been heard of
the chief.

A WOMAN IN
THE CASE
Believed to Have Ineited
the Yaquis to REBEL.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. IA special to the
Republic from Ell Paso, Texas, says:
Santa Teresa, the Mexican woman who
has long been revered as saint by
and who is believed to possess the power
of healing the sick by the laying on of
hands, is believed to be more or less
responsible for the present outbreak
amoug the Yaqui Indians.
George Harold, an old Texas ranger,
now policeman of Ell Paso, says that
he is confident that Santa Teresa is
responsible for the outbreak. Harold
is one of the officers who rounded up
the ringleaders that raided the custom
house at Palomas, chihuahua, a few
years ago.
"Santa Teresa" he said, twas impli-
Gated in that rebellion, which was
crushed in its incipiency. Every rebel
captured on this side of the line had
picture of the woman in his possession
and on the back was incribed one of
her prayers"
After the Palomas raid, the Mexican
government made an effort to appre-
hend her. as she was looked upon as
dangerous character. She escaped to
Ell Paso, however, and remained here
a year or more. While she was visited
by thousands. About year ago, the
woman disappeared from this locality
and it afterwards turned out that she
had gone to Sonora, and had taken up
her abode in the edge of the Yaqui
where she was safe from mo-
by the Mexican government.
Itis believed she melted the Yaquis
to revolt. The woman is described as
frail and delicate looking. She un-
doubtedly possesses great magnetic
powers. Harold and others are conf.
dent that her presence in the Yaqui
country mad great deal to do with
the uprising now assuming alarming

Yaqui Indians Are Encouraged by Their
Successes.
CHIACAGo, Aug. 6 "A special to the
Tribune from the City of Mexico says:
The rebel Yaqui forces are now thought
to have been swelled 5000 or 1000 men.
Their temporary success has encouraged
Indians from all the along the Yaqui
river to flock to their stronghold in the
mountains. The government decided
to reinforce General Lorenzo Torres
and the seventeenth infantry sailed
yesterday from Mazatlan on the gov
ment transport Oaxaca on the mouth
of the Yaqui river, leaving Mazatlan
intirely without garrison.
General Torres now has his forces
consisting of the Fifth cavalry and
Eleventh and Twelfth infantry, mob
ilzed in the Yaqui valley, and probably
will not ATTEMPTED forward move
until he receives his reinforcements
A regiment ftom the. interior is also
being sent to him. Up to the last
accounts the Mayo Indians were re-
naming tranquil. --z-5

CLEVELAND, Aug, An addition to
the attempt to blow up Jennings av
enue car on the south side last night,
reports received at police headquart-
ers show that cars were stoned in
various parts of the city, although so
far as learned, no one was injured.
The troops have been gradually with
drawn from the city during the past
few days until now not to exceed 500
remain. Fear is expressed in many
quarters that as a result of this the
lawless element will! again resume the
outrages that marked early stages of
