one can drive from thirty to fifty miles
a day without meeting a man on foot, on

FORCE
ACTION

Havana, Nov. 1S.-A conservative and
apparently impartial American arrived
Yesterday from the Isle OF Pines. lie
states that IN SaturdaX-a-secnnd meeting
Of Americans was held at Nueva Corona,
tho capital OF the island, and that about
50 per cent Of throse present confirmed
tho decision OF the previous meeting to
elect legislative officers and a delegate
to congress under the American territorial
form Of government.
The ticket nominated at the previous
meeting was confirmed. and It is under
stood the election took place Tuesday.
the day the informant left for Havana
one American protested at the meeting
that it's action might ~irritate the Cuban
government. Others replied that this
could not be helped, and that the situa-
ton could he no worse than Il was.
The informant saw no interference by
the Cuban authorities. A number of Gu
bans attended tho meeting. as lookers-on
and several Of them subscribed To tho de-
cision. There were no threats Of violence
Of any sort. but there were much sup
pressed excitement.
Tho determination OF the Americans
was apparently arrived AT with the idea
OF forcing a decision on the question by
tho United states by sending a delegate
60 knock at the doors OF ngres
The informant understands that the
Americans did not secede from Cuba,
hut ratified their previous position. that
tho island belongs TO the United States.
some declared that n their contention Is
not accepted they will sell out and leave
the island.
Another American practically confirms
the foregoing. The government officials
know nothing OF the matter officially. but
are inclined to regard u as unimportant.
Il IS held by some persons that the
whole anal was prompted by real estate
dealers. with the idea Of increasing the
value Of property on the island by hav-
Ing the islanders appeal 10 the American
people.

people are themselves responsible for the

4 dispatch from Tucson, Ariz., says
that at least twelve ranchers and several
women and children met death at the
hands of a band of a hundred Yaqui In
dams which has been raiding the coun-
try along the San Miguel river in the
Ures district of Sonora. A party com
posed largely of American mining men,
headed by Joseph Dewitt, has gone from
POGO Station to rescue the survivors,
who are in danger of being massacred
by the Indians. DIR. Frank j. Toissant,
who has returned from Ures, brought
news of the trouble. After several fam
lilies had been murdered by the Indians
ranchers made a determined stand at
Buenos Ayres ranch, where, aided by
about thirty employees, they succeeded in
Tepulsing the Indians. 1t is believed that
fully twenty Indians were killed, al
though the number can only be estimat-
ed, as the savages carried away the
dead and wounded when they retired
The nearest armed force is stationed at
Ures, and when DIR. Toissant left Hermo-
sillO it had been sent to the scene of the
0utrages. Five Yaquis taken just out
side of Lachumata and thought to have
taken part in the massacre were hanged.
