MUT|NOUS SOLDIERS
CONTROL CANANEA
Though They Have Been Paid, They
Refuse to Pissrm.

Caramel, Mexico, July 15.-AlthOugh
every soldier here was paid twenty
five pesos last night, they refused Ia
surrender their arms today. Some
demanded to be paid hundred pesos
while others wanted even more. Mu-
tinOus bands are in entire control OF
the city tonight. 1t was hoped that
everything would be settled by to-
morrow. as there is some prospect of
the soldiers leaving the city by that
time. 1t was said today that they re-
fused TO surrender their arms be-
cause of their possible punishment
for their recent actions and if they
left the city il probably would be to
avoid an encounter with other sol
diers who may be sent to disarm
them.
Col Juan Cabral is apparently I'M
able to control the soldiers. Captain
Miranda, said to be their leader. is
acting as spokesman in conferences
with officials. II is reported that il
was he who set some city Jail prison
ers free. Among those liberated none
has been recaptured. There were six
alleged murderers.

many American papers reporting that
at a breakfast which followed Fourth
of July exercises. the American am
bassador. Mr. Wilson, failed to respond
with customary recognition when the
American national air was played, and
that he rose to his feet after everyone
else had done so.
This story is evidently without foun-
dation: no such incident occurred and
no conversation on the subject took
place and the first news to the Mexican
public that there was a charge of such
indecorous conduct came with the ar
rival of American papers containing

day Of Patrick Cushing. a resident
American and former day watchman

no cause for alarm a strict quaran-
tine has been established at the home

In the opinion of DR. Doty, Cushing
contracted the disease from So
called cholera carrier. as there has
been no recognized case of cholera
on Hoffman Island seventeen DAYS
prior TO his leaving there AS soon
as the first case occurred among the
passengers Of the detained steamer
Moltke. DR.. Doty instituted a search
for Gushing, and learned that he was
in a hospital.
deputy health officer examined
Gushing and ordered his removal to
Swinbourne Island hospital. where he
died. While Cushings death reveals
the first native case OF cholera in
the present epidemic, three deaths
from the disease have occurred at
Swinbourne Island in the last three
days. According to DR.. Doty. six
other cases exist at quarantine Two
of these are serious. Three OF the
six were brought i'm by the steamer
Perugia last night from Naples. The
Perugia is still at quarantine.

there are doubtless many tracts list
cd. unknown to those who are most
concerned. the lands not being in
their names. attention is again called
10 the matter for their special ben
eft
There are some people no doubt
who have sold their land to others on
a partial payment plan, taking a
mortgage on the property. They may
not he aware that the assessment is
not paid ard Will he glad to be re
minded to look into the matter. They
should see the present holders Of the
property and urge them to pay the
assessment, or pay it themselves by
some arrangement. rather than have
it go to sale and cloud the titles
There are others who have recently
bought property. perhaps under an
arrangement with the seller to pay
the assessment, and the latter has
failed to do so. They should get aft
er these former owners and make
them keep their contract, or like the
class above. pay it themselves by
some arrangement, and avoid cloud
ing titles

when in fact they are outside the
corporation lines. Their assessments
are probably a matter Of only a few
dollars at most. and their property
might go to sale when it was the
last thing in the world they were
thinking about
There is still another class Of land
owners some of whom persist in not
understanding the situation They
are the owners of lands on the fringe
of the district, that have not yet
been able to secure water, or at least
have not done so. Some of them
think that so long as they are not
getting water they do not have to
pay the assessment. They are in err

signed in the hope that they may
secure water making them valuable,

To sum il all up, it behooves every
land owner to assure himself in ad-
