Wild Rumors of Advancing Red Men Cause Fear of Attack in
 Mexican Village

Residents of Nogales, Sonora were treated to an Indian scare Wednesday night that was surpas- sed only by the shock suffered ten years ago when the Yaquis ac- tually attacked the town Rumors of the presence Of warning braves in the country surrounding the two towns were numerous and visions of slaughter bIanched the faces of the more timid.
 The streets were without pedss- trains at an early hour and the town was as quiet as deserted village, while people behind closed doors waited with bated breath for the sounds Of battle. The word tsYaquis" hushed the crying child- ren quicker than ever did fear of the bogeyman" of fairy lore.
 "Yaqnis are between here and Magdalena and are coming this way in a large body"
 The Indians have already eros sed the Arizona line and are gath ering in the Pajarito mountains west of Nogales, Arizona"
 They are gathering in great numbers near Calabasas and will dash back across the line and at tack the town during the night"
 Such were the messages that were received and circulated by the old system of wireless telegra, phy, used before the Marconi fami- ly tree was planted. Children covered their heads under the bed- clothes and women trembled, while men examined the old guns that were laid aside years ago. But the morning sun peeping over the hill tops saw the town of Nogales.

 Runors of the proximity of the red men began to circulate early Thursday morning.

WINS SECOND SUIT DECISION FOR GREENE CONSOLIDATED
 COPPER COMPANY.
Suit of National Metal Company to Set Aside Judgment
 Heard and Lost

Once again the big suit between the Greene Consolidated Copper Company and National Metal Com pany, has been decided in favor of the latter and the judgment former ly rendered in favor the National Metal Company for S84,000 has been affirmed in the District court now in session here
 Though 2 large amount ofmoney was involved the case was never tried on It's merits, the first judg- nent having been given ID default and the second was but aifirmation of the first.
 Three years ago the Greene peo pie sued the National Metal Com- pany for $S4,O0O, claiming that amount to be due them for metal sold the defendant company. Pre- vious to that the National Metal Company had maintained m of tiee in Nogales, but before the fil- ing of the suit the resident man ager, MT. A. l.. Lewis, had left the town. Before leaving he had ap- pointed A. !. Pellegrin as agent for the company at this place.
 The suit was brought through the late Judge ". H. Barnes of Tucson and the papers in the case given to Sheriff Thomas Turner of Santa Cruz county for service. The papers were served upon Mir. A. b. Pellegrin. who disclaimed being agent for the defendant com pany.
 Mr. Pellegrin, owing to some disagreement with the National Metal Company, soon after his ap- pointment as agent, ceased to act as their representative here. He 70 informed the sheriff 1t the time, bat the latter knew Of 10 other agent and left the papers with the man on whom he had orders to serve them. Judge Barnes had looked up the records in the office of the Territorial Auditor and no agency of the company in Arizona was recorded.
 When Mir. Lewis left Nogales the company was running an ad- vertisement in the columns of TIE OASIS, with his name attached thereto. He ordered his name taken from the advertisement and the name of Mir. Pellegrin inserted. That advertisement was still run ming at the time the suit was instituted and was Judge Barnes authority for having the papers in the suit served upon Mir. Pellegrin as resident agent for the defendant company.
 The National Metal Company. according to the evidence introdu- ced at the trial, was advised of the service of the papers upon Mr. Pellegrin, but paid no attention to the matter, apparently assuming that as Mr. Pellegrin had ceased to act as their agent, the service of

about 1000 feet vertically from
surface. The work was carried on for
a distance of more than 1000 feet. and
the results obtained were sufficient to
convince the management that there
was lots of good ore in sight. This Will
be worked during the coming year, and
it would not be a surprise to the man
agement if some of the best ore In the
mine was encountered here.
The work of exploration was carried
on also on the 400-foOt level for dis
