Work began Wednesday on the grading of the Fort Huachuca branch of the Fl Paso and Southwestern rail road. The grading is being done by the McArthur Brothers Construction company, which also has had the contract for the building of the Tue son extension of the southwestern.
 The Huachuca branch begins at Lewis Springs. Arizona and runs to Fort Huaehnca, a distance Of 14.S miles. The ground is generally level and there will be few engineering dif- faculties to overcome. There will be one large bridge, built of steel, that will be erected just outside of Lewis Springs, but the construction of thIs bridge will be under the supervision of the engineering department of the Southwestern A number of smaller bridges, all of wood. will be put in along the line.

Col Emilio Roster litzky, at the head of 200 soldiers, made the trip by train from Empiame. arriving at Ia Dura at a critical per iod of the fight, which lasted two days.
 There was also two days fighting at the city of sah1aripa. the federals managing to stand of the rebels and finally driving them out into the open country. They later went to La Dura. There has been no com munIcation between La Dura and Sa- huaripa since August 3, and reports from that portion of the state are contradictory.
 Rojas and MascaTenas are said to be the leaders of the rebels in the Sahgaripa district They entered the state from Chihuahua, coming by way of Dolores. Among the Sa- huaripa towns reported to be in the hands of the rebels are Yacora, Trini- dad, Tepoea. Tarachl and Arfyechi.
 A report which has not been con firmed is to the effect that 300 Yaqui Indians are on their way from Baca- nora to join the rebels in Sahuaripa.
