. pE:a;a has been free from attack, or even rumor of attack for the past few days. yet it is plain that the work of insurrecto recruiting has not been discontinued. but goes steadily on, just as the fertilization of Agua Prieta. as told of yester- day, has been greatly improved over the conditions that existed prior to the federal occupation. Not only does the work of recruiting continue but there are gathered within a few days march of Agua Prieta at least five bands of revoltosos, that Iof Garcia, supposed now to be in Moctezuma, being the farthest away.
 Practically all of the insurrecto forces in Sonora are now to the south of Douglas. Apparently au- .thentic information has located five lof these bands and gives the names of the leaders of four of them. As to the size of the forces. so much exaggeration has been practiced in the past, that no attempt has been made to form an estimate. beyond the bare statement that the combin- ed rebel forces largely outnumber the federals now in Agua Prieta. What the result will be if peace nall fail is problematicsl
 ] A large force of rebels, the leader Of whom cannot be learned, is now reported to be encamped between Tenizas Springs and Colonia Mo rales. This force has been reported to number as high as 2000, but Ii is certain that any such figures as those are greatly exaggerated. Al Colonia Morales is Giron with his men, Rogas is just outside of Nacc zari, Garcia having left him there and proceeded on to Cumpas and probably to Moctezuma The fifth force is that of Cabral who is to the southwest of Agua Prieta in the mountains. their exact position not being disclosed.
 Thus it would appear that if ths trouble in Mexico be not speedily ended further fighting win be likely to occur in the districts that are tributary to this city. This. of course does not of necessity mean another attack on the town across the border.
 An arrival from the south this noon states ti,at the Cabral force is encamped west of Fronteras in the mountains, and numbers 1000 men. He states that all forces near this city are in touch with the peace ne gotiations and simply waiting devel. opments and are ready to lay down arms if peace is accomplished. or to continue the wor otherwise.
 Special Order is Given.
 Twenty-three Mexican federal prisoners crossed over from Agua Prieta today on their way to Hermosil- To, where they may receive better at tention than is possible to be given them at AgLa Prieta- They were accompanied by a nurse and a sur geon and on this side were joined by another wounded federal.
 On Monday the United States de- 'partment of war granted permission for the bringing across the inter
 national boundary and passage
 through this country of the wounded
 federals at the battle of Agua Prie- ta- The permission granted the Mexican government made the nee lessary arrangements with the rail. roads and this morning the journey
 of the sufferers began. They were
 made as comfortable as possible m a baggage car. in which they travel l ed over the Southwestern to Benson
 and thence over the Southern Pa ; eifc to Nogales, whence they cross
 back into their own country and re 1 Inew their journey over the Sonora , railroad, the entire trip taking near fly twenty-four hours.
 Some of the wounded were report { ed in serious condition.

 That the insurrectos are strong
 and active in Sinaloa as well as ir Chihuahua and Sonora is the import of a letter received in Douglas iron Mazatlan. which tells of serious ] fighting in the vicinity of that sea r port, and insinuates that the city < ! threatened. While the letter il brief and tells comparatively little
 its tone shows the seriousness o
 the situation when it was written. D An American in this city has re
 ceived a letter from Mazatlan, writ } ten by another American who is alss ' well known in Douglas. This lettel
 tells of figthing that must have oc
