 Their Conduct Admired.
 The excitement of the retel occu. patton of Cananea having subsided admiration for the conduct of both Mayor Arnold and General Juan Ga bral grows. The acme of civilized warfare was witnessed by those who saw the federal garrison march out in good order, with all of the honors of war, and the rebel army enter tho city, at one time being not more thau a mile and half apart. It surpassed the so-called convention" at York town in our revolutionary war, whsG Cornwaliis surrenderei with tse hon Ols of war. but without their arms.
 The demand for the surrender ol the city was made by Cabral to Mayor Arnold, the IT essage being sent by Cabral himself from the pump house over the telephone. Cabrai demand ed the surrender of the city at O. clock on the day following his ap pearance before the city.
 Arnold replied that be woui never surrender unless Cabral was able to show him that license would De need less and asked that a conference bc held. Cabral agreed to this. The mayor urged the rebel leader TO con slider the lives of the foreis1 non- conhatants in the city and the large T-operty holdings of foreigners in Al rrrA ed that he was able to take the city by assault and demanded that the city surrender at o'clock of the next day.
 Took Arms With Them.
 At first he asked for the surren- der of the garrison, but modified his demands when it became apparent that Arnold and ChiaTa would rot acce5e to his terms. He then asked that the garrison take only a rife each and tat tNe guns not in use as we'll as the machine guns be 'e't q" hin as the spoils Of victory. The fed erals world not agree to this and the rebel commander finally agreed to allow the federals to carry all oi the munitions Of war with them as well as their or9nance. Cahral wou'd rot, howe~er. delay his entry into the city until the following MondaS, 9 rOint curtended for by Arnold J1d Chiara. The terms were finally agreed to, after being on the verge oF being broEen or several times, and the evacuation and occuDation of the city were carried on with perfect or der.
 A co-nmendsbie Spirit.
 It is said that the two armies were eager for a hattie and that both Ar rold ana Chiapa believed that Can anea could he successfully detend, ed. as # was we'll fortified. Cabral was confident of victory by assault and that both leaders should have s b'rcated their msrtial desires to the i,- jciors and huuane motive Of pro fecting n-corbatants and foreign prorertv has aroused much arimira' ton among Ameri~aus especially, TOT the fine spirit shown by them.
 A well known mining man who was at Canarea at the surrender, speak ing of the situation at Cauanea pre, cediug the rebel occuration. said aTbs federal forNes were Stronqly fortified at Cansnea and had plenty of ammunition. The Naderistos were in far greater nrmher an1 also well armed. A Tattle with thousan3s oi citizel,s living in frail houses within tre zone of rattle wonld have re- s-lted in great and lament7hle loss Of life. nor cul7 among men but wo' men and children.
