Douglas, Ariz., Sept Is. Rebe
bands in northern Sonora are report
ed to be mobilizing at Colonia Mo

has been twice devastated by the in
surrectos. The rebel band Of Antonio
Rojas, which arrived at MoreIos Sun
day, was joined there by Salazars
rebels after they evacuted El 1'igre
and today the insurrecto force OF
Alanis. which has been operating
south Of Nacozari, merged with the
rebels at Morelos.
Ten men were sent out by Alanis
at breakfast time this morning to
the Cuchuverachi ranch, 25 miles
southeast of Aqua Prieta. They were
APPARENTLY making for the internation-
al line, presumably to smuggle across
ammunition. The foreman of the
ranch Immediately rode to the nearest
telephone at San Bernardino ranch
and telephoned the news to Douglas.
The rebels are reported to have al
large supply Of ammunition cached in
a canyon about five miles from Ell
Tigre. where a heavy guard is main
tanned.
After holding communication with
Colonel Munoz and Colonel Ebregon,
commanding the federal forces at 81
Tigre and Nacozari respectively, GEN
eral Sanjines ordered preparation for
the sending of 500 men from the Aqua
Prieta garrison to the south. The
combined force Of rebels now at Mo-
relos is estimated at 1,7O0, men and
with the troops at Nacozari and tal
Tigre, Sanjines expects to put as
many men into the field against the
rebels. The federal general declared
today that he would make an aggres-
sIve campaign against the combined
rebels now that the several strong
bands have combined, greatly IN
creasing the jeopardy of the Ameri-
can mining towns in Sonora south Of
here. Great anxiety is felt here lest
the rebels again put out Of comms
sion the Nacozari railroad, repairs to
which have nearly been completed.
Forces Of Antonio Rojas and Inez Sal

of 81 Tigre and are preparing to re
capture that town. Although informa-
ton was received yesterday by Gener.
al Sanjines that Rojas and Salazar
had quarreled and would not combine,
