The Yaqui forces, 1000 strong, de-

Guymas. Gen. Torres was informed
IN advance Of the intention Of the
hostiles by Geronimo Ascarate, who
was In the employ OF the Mexican gov

and participate in the battle.
Gen. Torres concentrated his forces,
numbering 5000 men, at Potam Thurs
day, and divided them equally. One
division was sent up the river with
the gunboat Democrata. The other
was swung to the northeast for the
purpose OF thanking the enemy. Thir-
teen miles from Potam the river force,
which was commanded by Torres per-
sonally, encountered the Indians, who
were we'll fortified. The soldiers as
saulted the works, and the gunboat
threw shells from the river.
The Indians had procured a Maxim
gun from the United States, which is
supposed to have been smuggled in
with mining machinery, and this was
used to good advantage. The Mexi-
cans were repulsed In disorder, and
the Indians swept the decks OF the
Democratic at long range, wreaking
havoc. The gun was we'll handled. and
1t is said it was in charge of American
gunners.
Many Mexicans on the Democratic
were killed. Others jumped in the
river and were drowned. The Demo-
crata was seriously disabled during the
action, and quit the fight, floating
down stream.
After being repulsed the Mexican
forces reformed five miles away. and
renewed the attack. Chances OF VIC
tory were in favor OF the Yaquis, when
the second division swept down from
the north on the position occupied by
the Indians. The Yaquis made a
brave stand for several hours, but, see
Ing that resistance was useless, re-
treated up the river, taking their
wounded with them.
Seyenty-three dead warriors were
left behind after the Indians had re-
treated.
