For the protection of Phoenix and the farm lands adjacent to the river, the county and city will start clearing the river shortly preparatory to building dykes for flood control It is impossible tu estimate the loss to the county and individuals caused by the floods. The damage to the county bridge and causeway by last winters flood alone, cost the county Sl000. The improve Rent will be made as soon as the own CTS of the land on the river bottom grant the county and city permission to re move the brush and timber from their property.
 lt is hoped that an agreement be- tween the ranchers and engineers rep resenting the county and city will be reached at once that the dykes might be completed before the late November rains. If the floods are to be con trolled it would be advisable for the ranch owners to get together, many of whom have already signified their will lingness to cooperate with those who have the movement in charge.
 The clearing will extend from Central avenue two and one half miles on the east and ne-half mile on the west and dykes will be built wherever necessary. Work will be begun on the extreme east as soon as the agreement is reached.

MILITARY RULE,

Republican A. p. Leased wlrel


 DOUGLAS, Oct. 6.-The political sit uation in Cananea, Sonora, which has been critical since General r. Elias Gales. military commander of the Car ranZa forces in the state, and Adolfo de la Huerta, governor of Sonora, refused to recognize and seat city officers elected September 15, is said by ar rivals here to be improved as a result of stern oppressive measures adopted by Gneral Manuel SoVarzo and three hundred infantrymen, sent by General Gales from Empalme last week. The anti-CarranZa and anti-AmeTican sen timent of a majority of the towns in- habitants is said by the arrivals to underlie the situation.
 MarSarito Rios an editor, for mayor, and five councilmen, said to have had the backing of a party composed of Villa sympathiZers and members of the new legalista party, carried the cleo tion by an overwhelming majority. Part of the campaign propaganda of Rios ticket is alleged to have been that as soon as Rios took office all Americans in Cananea were to have been arrested ana he& as hostages to compel com pliance with a demand for the with drawal of General J. J. Pershings ex- peditionary force from Chihuahua. When the expedition had beeen with drawn, the Americans were to have been released but expelled from the country as undesirable foreigners un- der Article 8 of the Mexican oonsti- ! tuition.
 General Gales refused to allow Rios to take office, the arrivals say. Gen eral SovarZo and his force entered Cananea unexpectedly with the result that number of men alleged to have | been connected with plot were arrested Six executions are reported to have i taken place, including the men backing | Rios in his candidacy. The report that 1 Rios was jailed and later executed was i denied semi- officially in Agua Prieta today. It was said that he and a body i or symp2thiZers estimated variously al from twenty-five to 125, escaped to the mountains and were pursued by troops.
 In suppressing the threatened disor. der, General Sovarzo is said to have made house house search for fire

the men found that each weapon was
a tritie off from absolute accuracy on
account of gas in the chambers, so
that in shooting at a bulls eye, 1t was
necessary to aim a little to the right

point blank at more than a hundred
yards.
The briefest report of the fight was
that brought back to the advanced
base by Sergeant Chicken. the oldest
of the twenty Apache Indian scouts.
No one with this expedition seems to
know Sergeant Chickens age which is
estimated at from 10 to 90. He was
in the van during the pistol battle,
where his experiences were said to

he knew, Sergeant Chicken said:

Further details he refused to dis

village 125 miles in Mexico and the
bandits rushed out. leading Deemer
and a captive negro named Monroe
Payne. Payne and Deemer are being
brought back to Texas, Terry said.
Their rescue alive. it is said, was due
to the refusal of the residents of the
village, where they had been left, TO
to kill them if the American troops at
tempted their rescue.
The report came from Colonel Fred
erick Sibley, who received his infor-
nation from Major Langhorne, whose
command now is about 100 miles
south of the border. A detachment OF
Major LanghoPne's force found the
Americans at Ell Paso, 80 miles south

Americans had been left there by their
captors in charge of the residents
None but the unarmed inhabitants OF
the town was there when the &meri-

was made.

Sibley that he was pushing forward
and hoped to overtake the bandits
during the day. He added that nc
federal troops had been encountered
and that the attitude of the residents
in the territory through which he had
passed appeared friendly.

retary Baker that the Carranza gov
states has no intention of intervening
in Mexican politics, and that conse-
quentlN resentment against the punt
tive expedition is rapidly decreasing.
General Scott. chief of staff of the
army. brought this word to Secretary
Baker from his conference at FL Paso

for the Carranza government. Among

Promises of ObFegon
Ten thousand selected Mexican

about Parral, the southernmost locality
from which American troops are beins
Withdrawn, and to search diligently

storekeeper, carried off by the bandits
mo Mexican troops were to be
moved from Sonora State through
