Hill Forces Maytorena Back.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE Consti-
tutionalist agency received the follow
ing telegram today from General Hill
at Naco:
Shortly before midnight of Friday
the Maytorena forces made their final
assault AGAINST Naco, attacking our
position from several different points
The fighting was fierce and lasted
about six hours. From our fortified
position our machine guns and rifle
fire punished the enemy severely.
Finally they retreated in great disor-
der toward their encampment.
Several mines had been planted In
the zone that the enemy traversed in
approaching our trenches and when
these were exploded two companies OF
Yaquis. who were charging in close
order were all but annihilated. Our
troops are still engaged in bringing
the wounded OF the enemy into Naco.
Our losses were slight owing to
the fact that we were entrenched and
that our troops acted with splendid
promptitude and valor.'

the situation appear more disturbing
than at resent.
The reports that four soldiers of
the United States forces at Naco have
been wounded in fighting occurring at
Naco, Sonora. early today have not
been confirmed In advices to the War
Department.

Army officers on the scene continue
to report that all bullets firing on the
American side of the line are to their
best knowledge and belief the re-
suits Of accident and not deliberate
intention to fire on Americans AS
long as the army officers report TINS
to be the case 1T IL unlikely that the
President will authorize any action
at Naco.
Governor Hunt telegraphed the
Department today asking that per-
mission be granted to bring over To
tho American side of the line num-
bers of Mexicans wounded in, Naco.
Sonora. He said that two American
physicians were across the line treat
ing the wounded and there was grave
danger OF their being injured unless
the wounded were transferred to
American territory After consulta
ton with State Department officials
the War Department instructed Gen
eral Bliss that no wounded were TO
be brought over unless it was indi+
Gated that Naco was about to fall into
the hands of the attacking forces.
In that event they might be trans
ferred to the American side with a
view to being returned into Mexican
territory at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
