Sonora Mere officially confirmed here
today by Ives g. Lelevier, de facto
consul, While the consul has receiv-
ed no list OF those killed by the In

received in Agua prieta state that the
casualties have been numerous.
The Indians are making their head

try for food and clothing.
Americans arriving here today
from Cumpas. sonora, said that whilo
depredations had been reported from
the section described by the consul,
1t was stated that the Yaquis are ac-
companied by their families. This
lends color to the belief that they are
awaiting a favorable time to leave
Mexico and follow hundreds of their
tribe who have crossed the border
recently into Arizona. After crossing
the border they are transformed into
peaceful workmen.
Mining men say that Yaqui Indians
are steadier workers than the Mexi-
cans aud easier to handle. Hence all
crossing the border are welcomed in
tho camps of southern Arizona.

The principal business of the day
was the approval Of a plan to confer
on peace plans with the republican
convention
Throughout the day ;ha leaders

any actual hold they had upon the
delegations The same determination
to nominate Theodore Roosevelt was
evident from the time the first dele

Leaders made no effort TO conceal
their belief that d failure Of the con-

some possible basis for an agreement
could result in but one thing-the I'M

only by many promises to place no
obstacles In the way Of the nomina-

content to adjourn and await results
from the conferees.
The convention spent about four
hours in session ending with a per

development without waste: use with

] The civil service law has always
! been sustained by the republican
party, and we renew our repeated dec
lardtion that il shall be thoroughly
and honestly enforced and extended
wherever practicable. The demo-
cratic party has created since March

4i,000,000 10 the taxpayers OF the
country
we condemn the gross abuse and
misuse Of the law by the present dem
ocratic administration and pledge our
selves to reorganization of this
service along lines of efficiency and
economy

maintained by the republican party,
we hold that officials appointed TO

1--WE pledge the republican party
TO the faithful enforcement of all
federal laws passed for the protection
OF labor. We favor vocational edu-
cation. the enactment and rigid aen-
forcement OF federal enid labor
law: the enactment OF a generous and
comprehensive workmen's compensa-
tion law within the commerce power
Of congress, and an accident compen-
sation law covering all government
employees. We favor the collection
and collation. under the direction of
the department OF labor of complete
data relating TO industrial hazards for
the information of congress, to the
end that such legislation may be
adopted as may be calculated to Sc
cure the safety. conservation and
protection Of labor from the dangers

PARIS ADMITS
LOSS OF NAUX

Paris. juno S.-The hombardcd
shell of old Fort NauX has finally
passed into possession of the Germans
after a heroic resistance, In which the
troops were cut off from food supplies
for five days and from all communal
cations for twenty-four hours. The
French on Withdrawing, however, still
held the trenches sweeping around
the western and southern slopes OF the
fortress.
The desperate defense made by
Commander Raynal and the small
contingent left in the fort constitutes
one OF the most notable incidents Of
the Ncrdun campaign. The fort had
been gradually pounded TO pieces in
q terrific seVen-day hombardment
while infantry PUSHES were repeatedly
launched AGAINST the slopes of the
fort its bitches aud outwofks. Early
yesterday morning General Raynafs
force was cut off for the first time
from communicating With the French
trenches soc yards 10 the south. The
means Of transporting provisions and
shells had previously been destroyed
and the stock Of food in the garrison
was exhausted.
In the meantime the Germans
brought up two fresh divisions and
hurled them forward in five success
sive massed attacks which, I'm spite
OF the fearful losses caused hy the
French artillery. finally resulted in
the Germans gaining the inner de-
lenses of the fort and sweeping over
its exhausted defenders. No word has
been received from General Raynal
since communication WIS first cut and
nothing Is known of his fate or that
Of his men.

Protection Of the Country.
'In order to maintain our peace and
make certain the security OF our peo-
