Hth him. Campo ran the train back
to Aqua Zarca. 81 kilometers north,
where the telegraph wires had been
cut recently. There the passengers
were ordered into the frst-class and
Pullman coaches and two men of the
train crew were ordered TO take a
hand car to Nogales, where they were
to tell the railroad company to send
out another engine to bring the pas
sengers back to Nogales.
The rebels then detached the two
rear coaches and ran the train south.
placing one OF the cars on every
bridge, setting fire to the latter and
consuming the cars with them. Be
sides the passenger coach and the
mail car, IL is reported that two cars
of ties. one of cord wood and an emp
" cattle car were burned on bridges.
The rebels repeated the tricF OF
tearing the telegraph line down,
poles and all. with the assistance OF
the locomotive. to which they fast.
ened the ends of the wires. Three
kilometers of wire are said to have
been destroyed.
Engine Turned Wild
When the rebels had finished their
destruction. they ordered the engine
crew TO jump from the engine after
they had been forced TO throw open
the throttle. and the locomotive was
sent down the main line on a Wild
run. What damage was done by this
rece OF work has not been heard.
Proceed on Westward
The rebels left for the west after
finishing their job and II is now
feared that they will prey on the
small unprotected towns in the Altar
district. There are a few towns in
the district. such as Altar. Caborca,
Pitiuuito and Sario. which are said
to be protected only by small garri-
sons. II is expected that Campo is
headed for the last named town.
Fence TeIegraphy
When the trouble man of the rail-
road was sent to repair the tele-
graph line on the Cananea-NacO line,
he was forced 10 use his ingenuity
to span the gap of two klomsters
which was caused by Campo tearing
down the line. posts and all. It
would have taken some time to re-
construct the line, and was not to
be thought of so at present the wires
are connected to the barbedwire
fence, which makes an excellent
makeshift for a telegraph line in an
emergency. A similar plan will
probably be carried ont at Aqua
Zarca.
Train Sept. 20
II is now believed by the railroad
officials that 2 passenger train will
| be run from Naco 10 Csnanea on the
| twentieth OF this month. There are
! az present about 150 men at work re-
I pairing the bridges and working at
both ends of the line, under a guard
Of soldiers. numbering about 300.
No Famine in cansnea
There is not a remote chance of
1 Cananea's being starved out or suf-
/ feriug from famine. as the store OF

( company has Sufficient supplies on

I company is not wholesaling anything

any parties to secure a corner on any
thing in special lines. and thus force
up the price, the people perhaps be-
ing forced to pay exhorbitant prices
for necessities OF life.
Shutdown Unlikely

No danger of being shut down, as
there is a large supply of coke and
oil on hand. besides other necessary
suppIies in the operation of a large
pIant. II is believed that there il
a sufficient stock on hand to run the
smeIter for So or 20 days without
bringing in another pound to the city.
