THE YAQUI "JUNTA"
CONTINUED from LIST page].
so-called Yaeui Junta are.

so-called Yaaui Junta are.
First, rs to the allegation that the
Indians desired to help the Americans
during the war with Spain. If this be
true, whoever had heard of 1t. There
| has been much news from the Yaqui
country concerning the operations in
the field, aud if this could get through
to the United States, how much more
readily would you have heard in this
country anything pertaining 80 much
more directly to your own affairs.
''Gen. Torres, who has command in
the field, and who is my cousin, would
certainly have known of such move
ment of $500 men, If there had been
such an one. And with equal Ger
tainty I, both from my official position,
and because of my relationship, would
have been informed. Believe me, no
such movement existed.
INDEPENDENCE A MYTH.
'As to the intention to give indepen-
dence to Sonora, 1 can only refer you
to the fact that the Yaqui element does
not constitute majority of the popu-
lstion, aad even If it did, it is not of
such a kind or character as to be the
dominating class.
1.-The allegations that Mexicans kill
Americans are of course beneath con.
| tempt.
CONVICTS IN ARMY.
''The statement is true. in a meas
ure, that the Mexican army operatiu g
in Sonora, is composed in part of ex-
convicts. 1t is customary in the
United States to observe She three
fourths rule in the confinement of
prisoners. That is, good behavior in
most state penitentiaries entities a
man to discharge when three-fourths
of his term shall have expired.
'The Mexican government has been
sadly misunderstood in its method of
dealing with good behavior prisoners.
Instead Of turning them loose without
an occupation. to mingle and mix again
with criminal classes, the men, at the
expiration of their good behavior time,
are allowed places in the army. Thus
they are given regular occupation

and made to be of benefit to the coun-
try. In that sense the Yaqui allega-
tion that they are fighting criminals is
true.
81 really know nothing about the ex-
istence of a helping organization of any
kind in America, and 1 do not believe
one does exist.
CAUSE OF REBELLION
"The probable primal cause of the
Yaqui rebellion is the fact that Mexico
does not have q system of Indian reser-
vations as does this country. There
are other Indian tribes right here in
the state of Sonora, and the Mexican
government wants them to intermingle
with the remaining population of the
state, and become q part of it. The
Yaquis want to hold themselves aloof,
and to have an absolutely separate and
Independent government, and this is
impossible in view of the policy of the
Mexican government"

DEATH FROM LOCKJAW
LEVI COLLINS, A DRIVER, THIRTY
NINE YEARS OLD, THE VICTIM.
Malady Brought on by Rusty Nail
Penetrating the FIesh-COIIins's
Awful Sufferings.

Levi Collins, thirty-nine years old, driver
for the NJ. C. Steinhauer Coal Company.
died at the home of his sister, Mrs. Rich
ardson, 1119 Bates street. at 1910 yesterday
morning, of lockjaw. The duration of the
disease was a little more than two weeks,
but the patient did not lose consciousness
until within a few hours of his death. The
trouble was brought about by stepping on
a rusty nail in ~alighting from his wagon
near the Atlas engine works two weeks
ago last Tuesday. The nail penetrated the
flesh about two inches.
The wound was painful. but an attempt
was made to treat it with home remedies.
These failing, a few days after the acct
dent, DIR. j. c.. Alexander was called, but
it was too late, and he could not check the
disease. The suffering Of the man was ter
rible, and how he bore up under the pain
as long as he did and retained conscious
ness was a rare example of nerve and will
power. In the last moments the muscles
became contracted, drawing the head back
ward, and the jaws were firmly set. II
was in this condition that he died, without
regaining consciousness or any relaxation
taking place.
Collins came here from Clarksburg, and
boarded with his sister, who is a widow.
The body will be taken to his former home
to-day for burial.

THE ~SIXTY-DAY POLL.

FOR TROPICAL SERVICE
GOVERNMENT DESIRES TO ENLIST
DESIRABLE COLORED MEN.
Local Recruiting OfHcer Received
Twenty-FOurth Infantry.

Orders were received at the local recruit
ing station from Assistant Adjutant Gen.
eral Ward yesterday. to enlist desirable
colored applicants for tropical service for
the Twenty-fourth Infantry, designed to go
TO the Philippines. One battalion of the
Twenty-fourth is now in the Philippines
while the remainder of the companies are
scattered far and wide. One company is
stationed in Alaska and the others are
distributed at various posts throughout
the United States. The order directs that
recruits be sent to Fort Wright, Wash,
near Spokane, which is supposed to be the
mobilization point of the regiment pre-
paratory to sending it to the Philippines.
Captain Black, who had charge of the
local recruiting station in this city a little
more than a year Ago., has a command in
the Twenty-fourth Regiment.
This is the first order the local station
has had to enlist colored men. for nearly a
year. Heretofore, only colored men who
had been in the service were enlisted. and
then, MY the most desirable applicants
were considered and they had to enter the
army by special permission from the War
Department. Now it is not necessary to
have a special permission and desirable
colored men can be enlisted at the local
station whether they have seen service or
not and may be forwarded direct to the
mobilization redezvous.
The order was received with pleasure at
the station as many colored men have APP
piled for enlistment OF late and were turned
away because they did not meet the re-
quirement of the special dispensation. Now
it is thought that colored recruiting will be
prosperous since the long sought for OBJ
portunity has arrived and colored men
who want TO become soldiers lave a
chance. Another feature of this order is
different from others, in that a recruit
knows exactly where he is going when
he enlists, a departure from the usual
method. A colored man when he enlists
at the local station now knows that he is
bound for the Philippines, and If his
aspirations run toward the far East they
will be satisfied.

MGREGoR IS INDIGNANT
INCENsED AT THE ATTACK MADE
ON HIM BY A NEWSPAPER.
Difficulty Over the Courthouse EIec-
tricsl Work Not Settled, but
Promises to Be Soon.

The difference between the electrical
workers and Sanborn & Co., contrac-
tors over the work that is being done at
the courthouse, was not adjusted yester-
day. but it is given out that everything will
be made right. Commissioner McGregor
was much incensed at a statement pub
lished in a morning paper attacking his
fidelity to organized labor, and says the
charges are absolutely false. Mr.. McGregor
is a member Of the Stone Masons' Union,
one of the strongest labor organizations in
the city, and is a member of the Labor day
committee. He says he has always tried
to make opportunities for union labor, and
will, to verify his assertion. solicit indorse-
ments from the heads of the different trade
unions in the city.
So far as the commissioners are con-
cerned the contract for doing the electrical
work is beyond their jurisdiction. The
contract for most of the work, including
the wiring, was let to Joseph T.. McWil-
liams & Co., of Louisville. The McWilliams
company is a union contracting firm. The
contract for the electrical work was sub
let to Sanborn & Co., and the commission
ers had nothing to do with II.
Mr.. Sanborn said last night that 1t was
agreed, when he took the contract, TO en-
pioy union labor and that an effort was
made to do SO, but the union refused TO let
him have men. He claims he agreed 10 pay
the union scale, but men were not sup
piled, while, on that particular job, he
says union men were given preference. His
company has been boycotted by the trades
organizations of the city, and he says this
fight is being made TO drive him into sign
ing a contract to employ none but union
men. He emphatically stated that his
company will not go into such an agree
ment, although it is willing TO employ
union men. Further. Mr.. Sanborn denies
the statement that he or the officers of the
company said union men that have been
employed are incompetent. He says no
union mar was ever discharged by his firm
and that they worked until they quit Of
their own free will.
Regarding the commissioners Mr.. San
born said: THE commissioners have al
ways been in favor of union labor. They
asked that we employ union men and we
agreed. They have fulfilled their part of
the contract and since we lave employed
union men, tried to get them, and they
have left US, We feel that We have full
filled ours. We tried to get union men,
| agreed to pay the scale and now we think
that We have done our duty. We are now
out of the jurisdiction of the commission
ers and have the affairs on our own
shoulders"

ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the State.

Following the announcement Of the CEN
sus returns interest in political circles is
now centering in the reapportionment of
the State into congressional districts. 1t
was thought by some that the increase
shown by the returns would be sufficient
TO warrant Congress allowing Indiana one
or more additional congressman. Whether
Marion county will be a district in itself
is a matter of conjecture. The fact that
a reapportionment will draw lines in such
a manner that Marion ounty will be one
district, if population alone is considered,
is the encouragement some entertain.
Others think that the increase has not been
large enough to make Marion county a
Separate district.

MORE ROUGH RIDERS.
New Company Mustered Into the Ma
rfon County Regiment.

A new company was mustered into the
Marion county regiment of Rough Riders
at West Newton last night. Sheriff Clark,
the colonel of the regiment, was present
and a a few remarks. Gilbert P. New
SOM. who served in Company c of the n
hundred-and-sixtieth Indiana during the
Spanish-American war, was elected cap
tain of the troop. Owing to the enthusiasm
which prevailed at the meeting the whole
evening was taken up with impromptu
speeches, and as a consequence the COM
pletion Of the organization was postponed
until next Saturday night.
