at whose mines in Cananea the riOting
occurred early this month, charges that
agitatOrs from the Western Federation of

warned of a plot to dynamite the bank

things;

con the night of May 81. I was informed
by man working in the CObre Grande
that a Mexican working there had told
him that trouble was going to start in
Cananea on the morning Of June l at ,

three meetings at midnight on the night
Of May 80 at which a large number OF
agitatOrs Of sOcialistiC tendencies were
present; that the agitatOrs of the West
ern Federation Of Miners had been
through the mines melting the MeXicans,
for the sociaIistic club that had been es-
tablished at Cananea- He also gave US
a couple Of copies of revolutionary cir
CuIar that had been widely distributed,
together with a number of other details.
While it looked ridiculous to me that
thing of that kind could be done, their
programme included dynamiting the
bank. where it was reported we had 81
