 other commanders of the regulars sent forth orders for their entire forces 10 concentrate in center at. tack.
 Al this stage of the activities. the Warren District army was massed on the northern boundary of Camp Naco. They were in a position in which they were completely exposed to vol leys of welcome followed by success i've charges of pleasantly.

It. Gen. Frankenberg set off a box of Ha- vana perfectos. the dense smoke from which served to put the Regular off cers into a dreamland of content for a time but this advantage proved to be only temporary The defenders of Camp Naco and their thousand-strong troops pressed their advantage and captured the entire army of the War ren District.
 The terms imposed by the victors are considered unusually generous in view of the circumstances. They coy enanted on their part, to maintain their camp at Naco until such time as orders from Uncle Sam made it mandatory to depart to other fields of duty. They also promised to look upon Bisbee. Lowell and Warren as towns to which they possessed all the keys. The Warren District Army through its several commanders. un- dertook to provide generous and hos pitable treatment to all officers and privates who visited the Warren Dis trict

In spite of a brilliantly executed en veloping movement by the entire commercial forces of the Warren Dis trict. they were utterly routed yester. day by the flower of Uncle Sam's forces which are stationed at Naco. eight thousand strong Under the command of General Bliss and his field stan, a continuous howitzer fire Of courtesies followed by a general assault of hospitality completely van quisbed the Warren District Army. The engagement was undertaken under perfect conditions. The mob iliZation orders, issued by Field Mar shal Joe Gray. of the Warren District Commercial Club, were obeyed i'm. plicitly The result was that the sev- eral division commanders in Bisbee. Lowell and Warren, reported at the Plaza promptly st D. m. At that time the flying detachment of auto mobiles was in waiting to convey the attachments to the scene Of activi- ties. The mobilization of the forces attracted a big crowd along Main st. and Naco Road and there wasn't a wet eye in the assemblaEe when Lieu tenant Bugler NJ. J. Cunningham gave the signal for his band to strike up the forward marching song, It's a Long, Long. Way to Tipperary." Corps Commander Bowen. Ralph Pow ell and J. II.

 Chief Scout Fred Ritter did valiant service up to the time when the fore es passed through his bailiwick of Lowell, after which Adjutant Jesse Poland, who has familiarized himself thoroughly with the dry overland route, led the way toward the first trenches at Naco Everything had been arranged in advance SO that the army slipped through the outposts without being observed and deployed to the west where were seen the t'ANo bA NAE V hlAtu olalth ItbuldIb.
