troops In control of all points north Of
the gulf port. The government troops

An unconf1rmed report was received by
wire today that the state troops had
occupied Guaymas with the federals
in full retreat southwark along the
coast
Eight hundred insurgents under
Juan Cabral took the aggressive in the
center of the states advance. De-
ployed along the right flank were the
Yaqui Indians, under Chief Bule, who
pressed against the federal position,
with a wicked rifle fire. Five hundred
cavalry moved down from the right
wing under Majors Trujillo and cutter
rez with General Obregon command
er of the state forces directing the
advance from the center rear
So persistent was the insurgents ad-
vance, forming its semicircle of fire.
that soon the federals began to retreat
despite their artillery. which tossed
shrapnel behind the hills and canyons
where the constitutionalists were con-
cealed.
The federal formation, seen through
high power glasses from the states
right. had 10 cannon in the center and
cavalry to the right a total of 1900
men, the main bodies of which were
two miles apart. Both divisions fell
back toward Guayamas.

SUBTRACT BOMBS
FAIL OF PURPOSE

London. May 1.-Two more of the
now familiar bombs. which the militant
suffragets are attempting to scare the
British parliament into giving the par
liamentary franchise to women, were
discovered this morning. One of them
was found in the passengers waiting
room at the street railway station in
Liverpool and the other in the sorting
room of the postoffice at Reading. The
fuse of the Liverpool bomb had been
lighted by the perpetrators of the out
rage, but had died out before it reached
the gun powder The bomb consisted
of tin tobacco box filled with gun
powder and iron nuts and the long fuse
was laid in the center.
The Reading machine was wrapped
IN bulky parcel to which the atten-
ton of the, postoffice employees was at
tracted by the sound of ticking. The
police We're called in and on examina-
ton found that the parcel contained
an electric battery connected by clock
work with explosives and accompanied
by quantities of the suffraget litera-
ture. The parcel was addressed to a
municipal official at Reading now on
his vacation. The officials express the
opinion that it was timed to explode in
his residence during his absence. The
clock work arrangement was in perfect
working order
