 The sixteen pr;soners now under ar rest area being held in ines Dougl las City jail, and a strong guard on duty night and day to prevent any at- tempt to rescue them. The Captain stated that he had heard nothing fur ther. from the rangers or officials at Nogales of any trouble or arrests made in that section since those made at the Mowry camp and at Patagonit. The officials there. however, are making some very thorough examinations of evidence that was discovered on the three Mexicans arrested by the rang CTS, and it is thought that some fur ther arrests will be made in that To- eality during the next few days. Sey- eral who were implicated in the move raent at Nogales have left for parts unknown, but a good description has been obtained of them and a close watch is being kept by the rangers as well as the immisration officers to ap- prehend the fugitives.
 Immigration Inspector Connell who was also prominently implicated in the exposure and arrest of the revo- lutionists at Douglas was in the city today as a delegate to the Republican convention. He stated that the off cers at Douglas were still working on the matter, and that a number of oth- CT arrests would be made this even ing or in the morning. The officers are searching in this city for a witness who is wanted to testify before the commissioner at the examination of the revolutionists. but up to a late hour no trace of the witness could be found
 Yesterday afternoon the Review re- ceived the following official statement by wire from General Torres. who was in Naco, having just returned from Douglas: W
 Statement by Torres.
 The article appearing in the Los Angeles Examiner of September, 4th. regarding alleged revolutionary out break in this part of Mexico is abso- lutely false I have personally visit ed today Naco. Douglas and Aqua Prieta. and foun deverything in per feet order. Certain arrests have been made in Douglas and Nogales, Of -t,n deavoring to organize men to attack certain public officials, and these men should receive such punishment as corresnonds to their respective crimes. With the arrest of these men all trou- ble has been stopped. and there is ab- ,solutely no foundation to the rumors that have been circulated that trouble was. imminent.
 Tn Naco. Bisbee, Douglas and Aqua Prieta everything is quiet. and in Can anea all the mines are operating. The smeltin gand concentrating plant con tinue. and all the people are peaceful Iy following their pursuits unmolest. ed. There is no anti-foreign move ment on foot and no reason to expect any. Instead of anticipating any trouble, the minds of the people oi Cananea are completely occupied in making extensive preparatipns for the celebration of the 18th of Septemoe, in the most pleasing manner.
