FIGHTING IN MEXICO.
Pitched Battle Between Troops and
Yaqui Indians.

AUSTIN CTex), Dec. 12.-Informa-
ton reaching here to-day is to the eff
feet that on December Sd the Yaqui In
dams and the Mexican forces under
General Torres had a pitched battle
engagement was with the main body of
Indians, the Mexican forces numbering
some 1000 men.
About ten days ago several rowing
bands of Yaquis who had been out on
scouting and depredating tours began
gathering at the main camp of the
Yaquis, located in the mountains on
the Paphigochic River. The Mexican
troops attempted to head the small
bands off, but they were unsuccessful,
and in a short time all of them had
Joined the main body Of the Indians.
Evidently fearing that the Mexican
troops were preparing to invade their
camp, the Indians pushed the fighting
themselves by attacking the Mexican
forces in their camp.
The onslaught was vigorous, but not
very effective as the Indians did not
advance in a solid body, preferring
their their old warfare of man for man
behind boulders and *reas. In this
manner they began their attack ON the
soldiers camp, and, according to re-
port, the fighting was most severe, and
lasted for a day and night, when the
Indians withdrew, having sustained
considerable loss.
The militia made several attempts to
dislodge the Indians from the woody
country without success and upon each
deploy the soldiers lost quite a number
of men killed and wounded.
While the military troops were en-
gaging this main body of Indians, there
were number of small bands roaming
around the mountains, laying ranches
in waste and otherwise playing havoc.
1t is learned that the Mexican forces
have the Twentieth Infantry marching
to their assistance, when they hope to
follow the main body of the Indians and
either capture or annihilate them.

Princeton Varsity Shows Good Form
--Notes of the Local Teams.

Much disappointment is felt at Prince
ton over the condition of the Varsity
eleven. Ever since the scrubs scored
against the Tigers and the general FUN
bling has been noticed much apprehen-
sion is felt. Yesterday the coaches put
the men through a short hand practice
against the scrubs and Varsity scored
a touchdown. The practice lasted only
a very short time and three sets OF backs
were used while the candidates were all
given a chance at the ends.
The work on the whole was not en-
couraging to the coaches, and last night
considerable apprehension was felt as to
the outcome of the games today and to-
morrow at Baltimore and Annapolis. The
men are in very poor physical condition
and but few of them will be able to play
out any Of the games.
All the formations that will be used
today were run through yesterday after
noon and judging from the amount OF
fumbling and ignorance of signals, there
will be- some disastrous mistakes. The
team left this morning at 1923 for Balti-
more. Twenty-Five men were taken be-
sides coaches, trainers and attendants.
