Washington, Oct. 9.-Reply has
been made by the secretary of state
to Senator Perkins inquiries in be-
half of Charles F. O'Brien and D. :.
G. Grigsby, who asked for permission
to return to the Yaqui valley, in Mex
leo, whence they and others fled on
the advice of Consular Agent Vail.
The secretary gives little comfort to
the Americans, who left their prop
erty, because they were virtually Or
dered to leave the country under
pain of suffering whatever conse-
quences might follow.
O'Brien is general land sales agent
for the Yaqui valley, with offices in
the Union Oil building, Los Angeles.
DR.. Grigsby is in San Jose. He rep
resents the Sonora Land Investment
Company, Sonora.
The letter of the secretary of state,
dated October 4, and addressed to
Senator Perkins, who has left for
Callfornla, is as follows:
"Sir: Referring to the contents of
your two letters dated September 2r
and September %, respectively, this
department, acting on the presidents
message to congress, has endeavored
to have all Americans in Mexico in
formed of his position so that each
might have opportunity to retire from
the country, thereby insuring personal
safety; property rights and losses can
be adjusted as rapidly as is possible.

double paving with a double street car
track running down the center. The

a thirty-foot paved roadway on either
