WILL txTERMlNATE YAQUlS
War on Rebellious Mexican Indians Begins
in Earnest.
Government Troops VIII Pursue
Them ReIentIessiy and Take None
of Them Prisoners.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, August IA special to
the Republic from Austin, Texas, says:
Information received here today by pri-
vate advices is to the effect that the MeXi-
can army will open up active and continual
warfare on the Yaqui Indians today. For a
week the Mexican soldiers already in the
Yaqui territory, have been engaging the
Indians until the main body of troops could
be mobilized. In doing this, they have lost
quite a number of their soldiers, while the
indians lost comparatively few warriors.
II was stated yesterday, however, that the
Mexican soldiers We're about mobiliZed-at
least, there are about 1000 men on the field
and that is considered to be sufficient to
Justify the troops being moved into the
mountains, with instructions to push
through and, if possible. eXtermnate the
Indians. The situation is worse even than
it was during the ten-year war. The In
dians are determined that they will fight
until they regain every foot of the territory
taken from them by the treaty three years
ago, and the Mexican government is deter
mined to effectually eXterminate the In
dians, so as to secure all the land from
them and prevent any further outbreaks.
The Indians have already waded rather
deep in blood, according to official advices,
having killed something like one hundred
miners and as many soldiers. With both
sides thoroughly aroused, the war, which
will open in earnest today, promises to be
long prolonged.
1t is given out that, taking up the line
of march today. the Mexican troops will
advance directly into the mountains and
try to reach the faStneSSeS of the Indians,
giving them no time to rest from one at
tack to another, in the hope that by this
procedure they Will be worn out in short
order and either surrender or all be killed.

The Van Wyck Boom a Make Be-
lieve Affair.
EE-GOV. PAfFIOON 10 Be BROUGHT OUT
Mr. 0. H. P. Belmont to Raise a
Bryan Fund in the East.
G GOSSIP ABOUT STONE

1t is said here that the Van wyck boom
in opposition to Bryan that is now being
inflated at Saratoga by the Tammany
chiefs and others of the snti-Bryan ele-
ment is merely a make-beiieve affair. and
that the man who is in mind to be pitted
against the peerless leader of Nebraska
Is ex-Gov. Pattison of Pennsylvania
Whether this is so or not is question that
must be left to future Developments but
the statement is that anti-Bryan men of th.
inner circle look upon Pattison as the most
available and most promising man with
whom to oppose Bryan. 1t is said that his
party loyalty cannot be questioned since
he supported the democratic ticket In nc
when Harrity bolted, and that his record
from party point of view cannot be ques-
toned, though he has no status as a ma
chine man. 1t is pointed out that in having
the record behind him OF having carried
PennsylN ania for the democratic party he
has better claim to availability than Van
Wyck. who failed in New York the only
time he ran, or German. who has been
shelNcd in Maryland. the opposition To him
having cost the democratic party the loss
of the state.
Gossip About Stone.
There have been whispers to the effect
mat the anti-Bryan people. abandoning the

titled with the gold wing of the party
would seek to compromise by taking some
free silver man other than Bryan trusting

ing Tor him the nomination. Stone of Mis-

in this line of speculation. Mr.. Stones
friends say. however. that he could not be
used in this way. 1t Is acknowledged that
he is ambitious. bat it is shrewiiy suggesl I'd
mat two things would stand in the way of
his being even a receptive candidate for
the democratic nom nation for President
at this time. one is that he is convinced
that there is no way to defeat Bryan for
the nomination in 1900; the other is that he
regards the result of the election as too
uncertain for the democrats 20 make the
prize of the nomination worth what ii
would cost 10 get il.
1t is said that his ambition looks ahead
another four years ana that his oniN aim
now is to gain the greatest possible Tirom-

nominate another man at another time.
Mr.. BeImont's Task.
1t is understood that o. II. p Belmont
has taken upon himself the task Of raising
campaign fund in the east for Bryan.
He is inspired to this difficult work, ii is
said, not by an ambition to get on The
ticket with Bryan, but because he has been
captivated by Bryan's personality. j. an
enthusiast and wants to be on the side
opposed to his brother Perry. Having
abundant means and no business cOnnoc-
tons that can suffer, it is said that he
feels that he can afford to court the peru-
liar sort of distinction that would come
from a Belmont being on the side of poll
tics opposing capital and the banks.

TRANSFER OF AUDITORS.
Much Gossip AbOut It-A Shake-I ID
Predicted.

The transfer of the auditors for the Navy
and War Departments will take place
some time this week. Frank II. Morris,
auditor for the navy, and W. w. Brown.
auditor for the War Department, have sent
their designations to President Mckinley
at Lake Champlain. He will accept the
designations, TO take effect on a certain
day, and will then appoint Mr.. Morris 10
the place now held by Mr.. Brown, and Mr.
Brown will receive an appointment to the
place held by Mr.. Morris.
The change has excited a great deal Of
gossip among treasury clerks. The gen.
eral belief among them is that Mr.. Morris
will make a shake-up in the Office to which
he will be assigned. He will introduce the
same methods which he has followed in
the Office of the auditor for the navy.
