Potam, Sonora Mexico, Feb. 27.-An-

Mexican regulars and Yaqui Indians.
The battle ragged all day Friday, and
the loss on the Mexican side was 800

ticipate in the battle.
The Yaqui forces, 1000 strong, de-
scended from their mountain strong
holds with the intention of assaulting
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
erment at Casas Grandes, Mexico, not
far from the seat Of the Yaqui gov
eminent at Babispe. Ascarate was sent
was sent to convey the news to Torres
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 Democratic. The other
vas 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 struggled 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
it 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 q
brave stand for several hours, but, see
! ing that resistance was useless, re-
treated up the river, taking their
wounded with them.
Seventy-tbree dead warriors were
left behind after the Indians had re.

DEMOCRATS ARE GRUMBLING,
High Rates of tho Kansas City Hotels
Give Great Onensc.


Chicago, Feb. 27-Kansas City may
not entertain the democratic national
convention. If she does, her hotel
rates will have to be greatly reduced
Democratic politicians are grumbling
because OF the rates being levied by
Kansas City hotel managers in reserv-
ing rooms. National Committeeman
Thomas Gahan laughed when he was
told that some of his friends had been
taxed $50 per diem for a room, but was
himself made faint when a reply to
his query for quarters read $500 a day
for four, with bath"
Willard F. Dunlap, democratic can
didate for state treasurer, grieves over
his assessment, which was only SIS
a day, minus bath. Others were
charged Sc day for quarters on a cot
in a room containing seven additional
persons.
Mr.. Gahan says the Kansas City peo-
pie guaranteed no increase over regu-
lar rates, and that the exorbtant
charge would have to be abolished and
reasonable figures asked or the COM
mittee might take a notion to recon-
slider the vote giving the convention to
Kansas City, and locate it in city
that would act fairly.

Rome, Aug. 1G.-A maritime paper
publishes an article by Signor Crispi
in which the ex-premier urges an in
crease of the navy. He says that dur
ing the existence for 1G years of the
triple alliance, Italy has not had an
organized defence. From 1860 to the
present time e2,65O,OoO.OOO has been
spent on the navy which has descend
ed from third place in 1890 to seventh
among the navy powers. Sicily can
not be defended without strong
fleet nor can many Italian colonies be
safeguarded against foreigners. Sig
nor Crispi asserts that the economical
future of Italy demands that she
search for new fields in the extreme
Orient and he recommends that the
government provide for the necessities
of the situation.

ran being unable to attend the anti

ter of regret to Chairman Edwin Bur
rift Smith. The following extracts
are taken from MT. Cockran's letter.
The issue of Imperialism having been
gquarely raised between the two great par
ties 1t must be plain that the only way
in which citizen can exercise any direct
influence upon the result is by voting for
the Republican candidate, who supports 1t,
or the Democratic candidate, who op
poses II.
Nothing can be accomplished by the
nomination of a third candidate that can
not be accomplished equally by abstentior
from the polls, except that the citizen who
remains at home on election day passes
unnotIced, while he who votes third
ticket attracts attention.
When the republic Is In danger the only
place for the patriot Is in the ranks of Its
active defenders. Absence from the field
of contest or shooting In the air can never
be justified.
imperIalIsts unanimously approve Mr.. Bry-
