As Being n Part of the Campo ign OF

the Ynquf Indians.
Phoenix Ariz., September Harry Lo-
gan, formerly of Phoenix, returned today
from trip to Sonora, Mexico, leaving
there two weeks ago. He was three miles
from the seat of the first Yaqui uprising
when it occurred and the shooting and
yells OF the Indians We're plainly audible
He says the uprising is great deal more
serious than was reported by the news
paper correspondents. 1t is difficult to
trace the operations OF the Indians, and
many lives were lost which were not re-
ported. The Yaquis tortured a number
OF captives.
Logan was one OF a party which dis
covered the bodies of several Mexicans
and two Americans on the Yaaui river and
the way the victims met death was ap-
parent. Their ears were cut off and por-
tons of their bodies removed with knives.
After this the soles of their feet were re-
moved and the unfortunates compelled to
dance over beds of cactus. When rem
dered unconscious by pain their heads
were split open with axes.
