 Sunday last Major Charles Hine, general manager of the Southern Pacific of Mexico, arrived at En- palme with supply of arms and ammunition for the employees of the railway at that place, to be used in their own protection, in case of an attack upon the town by Yaquis. The shipment was passed into Mexico under orders from both the American and the Mexican governments. With the arms thus supplied the employees of the company can put up stubborn defence in case of an at- tack, and they feel much more secure.
 This week there appears in THE OASIS the Articles of Incorporation of the Mexican West Coast Packing Company, which has been framed to operate in the Yaqui delta and other parts of Sonora. The cor pOration named holds the shares in a Mexican corporation the legal name of which is La Compafiia Empacadora de la Costa Oeste de Mexico, s.

They are described as we'll armed with an abundant supply of ammunition, and they are under leadership of Sibulame, the tru- culent chieftain who has been at the head of the small band which has refused all along to treat with the government. The members of the party relate that of the Amer jeans in Alamos about all that are left are MT. Marion s. MacCarthy, the consular agent. Mir. J. R. Obermuller and Mir. Al Lloyd.
