RAIL RETREAT OF
GALES SAID
TO Be CUT
MaytOrena Claims to Have Cut
Rail Communication of Gales
to Cananea and Captured Two
CannOnS and two Troop Trains

Information reaching Bisbee from
Nogales indicates that though General
Gales, leader of the Carranza forces
is sun at San Lazaro, he has lost many
prisoners during the two days fight
ing and two troop trains It is stated
that Maytorena succeeded i'm cutting
the railroad communication between
Santa Cruz and Cananea and capur-
ing two engines and two trains OF
provisions.
It is also ayerred that Gales lost
two cannon and rs prisoners i'm the
days fighting How far the Gales
troops have been driven back, it is
hard to say.
General Garcia. a Villa leader from
the state of Chihuahua, who was re-
ported, several days ago, as entering
the state of Sonora near NacOzari has
reached the immediate vicinity of
Cananea and intends to attack from
Gales rear Though the rumor was
current in Bisbee yesterday that Gar
cia had already taken the big copper
camp, no confirmation was to be had
and il is thought that the rumor was
a mistake Il is conceded, however,
that, Garcia is in the state of Sonora
with 1900 men and is advancing to
the support of the troops of Mayto-
rena who during the past few days
engagement, have given good account

Trouble Which He Faces.

NEW YORK, Sept. Dumba,
whose recall was asked by this gov

stigate strikes in American munition
plants, defends his action in a letter
to Lansing He protests against the
request for his recall as unjust and
complains of the restrictions imposed

sored use of the cables, a privilege
denied to him. He declares he asked
leave of absence to explain the situ-
alton
The action of the Washington gov
ernment requeI,ing Dumba's recall
was taken after the receipt of infor-
nation from a copy of a letter sent to
Europe by James Archibald bearing
plans for handicapping labor in Amer
