Decision by Secretary Straus Has

Tribune from Washington says:
As was anticipated, the decision by Sec
rotary Straus of the department of COM

themselves are not bound by the contract
labor law, has aroused more or less of a
storm of protest from labor bodies and
from some other people. In almost every
case however there is a distinct misuil-

solicitor of the department, which was
approved by the secretary
In point of fact, there has been no
change in what was the clear intent of
congress in regard to the rights of states
No undesirable immigrants who were
barred out by the general law will be adj

grants are coming to this country by hum
dredS of thousands. The effect of the de-

of the better class of immigrants. from the
Sums of great cities. where they are not
needed, to the fields and forests and in

where there IS and always has been q
demand for legitimate la Dor.
IT is not at all likely that any American

NO RIGHT TO INTERVENE.
Americans in Yaqui Country Go
There at Their Own Risk.

washington. Dec. 27.-The right of
the United States to intervene with the
view to suppressing the alleged MUIR
derous acts of the Yaqui Indians in
Mexico is seriously questioned by Of
fcials of the state department. From
the highest official sources it was ex-
planned today that Americans and 9TH
ers who go into that part of Mexico in
habited by the Yaquis do so at their
OVID FISK. The case was said to be
analogous TO the early days of the far
west in the United States. when pros
pectors and others went into Indian
country. where it was unsafe for white
People to be. and it was added that had
some foreign subject been killed or in
Jured there the government would have
resented interference from the outside.

fore any attempt at defense could be
made.
The band of outlaw Indians is said to
NUMBER about 100. RumorS of their
depredatiOns were rife on Saturday,
when MANY rdnchers fled TO the towns
for safety and reported a number of
murders in the district southeast of
Guaymas. = 1t was not believed, how
ever, that the Yaquis would dare to at
tack railroad station.
