 J. ogden Armour is head of the Roosevelt Business Mems Organiza- ton in Illinois. The organization of the entire country by states was be- gun in New York eight days ago and is purely a voluntary movement, MT Satterlee explained. It is understood the business men will render effective aid in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin and other states which have "favorite son" candidates for president in influencing delegates to support Roosevelt as a second choice in the convention.
 Managers of the Hughes, Roosevelt, Cummins, Fairbanks, Weeks and Root campaigns have turned their at tention to the contests over delegates which will be heard by the republican national committee beginning June 1.
 There are forty contests involving the seats of siXty-two delegates and the managers for the different candi- dates will closely watch the progress of the fights especially those in the southern states.
 Mrs, Frank & Lusk of Missoula, Mont. elected a delegate to the repub- lican national convention at a direct primary arrived here today. She is | instructed to vote for Senator Cummins.

MARATHON, Texas, May 30.-Re- ports that six hundred armed MeXicans are encamped across the Rio Grande from Santa Elena, an isolated ham let about 80 miles south of here, W ,e brought here today by F. E. White, resident of Marathon. White said that he did not know whether ths Mexicans belonged to any faction or were wandering marauders, but he as serted that residents of Santa Elena, who seemed somewhat alarmed told him camp fires had been perceptible on the Mexican side of the river for about week.
 Military authorities here could not confirm Whites report, it being point ed out that there is no American patrol stationed at that point.
 Company K, of the Texas national guard, left here today aboard motor trucks for Terlingua, Texas, 90 miles south, where they will assist in the border patrol.

Second Phase of campaian

DOUGLAS, Ariz-, May 3O.-The sec ond phase of the campaign against the Yaqui Indians in Sonora is rapidly developing according to the statement today of Ives G. Lelevier, defacto Mexi- can consul here Twelve thousand in- fantry men under General Francisco Martinez are taking their stations in the towns of the north of the Bacatete mountains and south of Ures to cam paign in the Ures Hermosillo and Sauhuaripa districts, against the re- maining bands of hostile Indians.
 Eighteen hundred cavalrymen under , supreme command of Colonel Miguel s. Samaniego, but divided into five columns, are in the field to pursue the Indians, without ceasing, Consul Le- levier says.
 The consul said that his statement 1 yesterday had been misinterpreted as, when he spoke of the troops coming northward, he did not mean that they would be placed near the border but that they would campaign north of the 1 Yaqui river valley. The border will not be menaced by their near approach, he said, as under the present campaign plans of General Elias Gales, com mander in chief and General Rafael | Estrada, field commander, they will not come nearer than more than one hun dred miles from the international line.
 After conference with General Gales, Enrique Moreno, secretary of state of Sonora, left today for Hermo- sillo to resume his office. Prior to his departure he denied the rumor reach- ing the border a few days ago that he had resigned his office.
 Although registration of Mexican citizens at the Douglas consulate be- gan only yesterday, Consul Lelevier saids that many local Mexicans have complied with the order, originating from H. Perez Abreu, director general of consulates. The object is to obtain an accurate census of Mexican citizens
 in the United States as well as to Se able to afford protection to Mexicans in case of a break between the two gov
 ernments or any other eventuality, Mir Lelevier said.
