Local Man Former Regular Will Or eanize Machine Gun Company to
 Aid in Fight on Border

Fred J. Wright. of the Huntsman- Uotchklss company, a former news papeT correspondent in Mexico for the International News Service, and for mer member of the regular army, called upon Gov. Hunt and Adjutant General Harris yesterday and asked for their support in the forming of a ma chine gun platoon to be added to the First Arizona Regiment.
 The governor and adjutant general were enthusiastic over Wrlghts prop osition and informed him he could have all the official backing necessary.
 Wright has taken the common sense rlan of forming his company first and then asking for the equipment. Up to last nigh, he had succeeded in enlisting 2S men. IS of whom are ex-regulars, and { Of whom have either served in the militia or attended military schools. Wright needs about 30 more men. In an interview last night he stated that he did not want inexperienced men, bui wanted to recruit men who have had serV ice. preferably in the regular army
 l Wright detailed his plan of action as follows. He is going to form the com l pany, tken Adjutant General Harris | will sec;fre the SIX guns necessary and ! the equipment. The company will not 1 go to the border to do border partol bu; ! will mold itself in readiness to. join 1 the regiment in case of bad outbreak | on the cor3er Wright explained last 1 night that there was nothing more tire

 secured were all possessed of good po-
 sltions they did not feel like going tc

Indications that the First Regiment Arizona Volunteer Infantry will soon be recruited to full strength of 1900 men. have started to come into Ad iutaux General Harris office.
 From reports he has received from all over the state it will be but a short time, providing the same spirit which has moved those who have en- listed up to date, continues to mani fest itself for a few days.
 A detachment Of twenty recruits under the charge of Sergeant George Curnutt left last evening for the camp at Douglas. A good sized oVa- ton was given the men as they trudged toward the train in civilian clothes, each one carrying bundle of personal effects under his arm. and presenting anything but mili- tary appearance.
 About forty more men came in from the north last night over the Santa Fe, and will leave this even ing for Douglas.
