BAND |NDlANS ON
The WAR PATH
SAID TO HAVE WHITE MEN AT
THEIR MERCY-l. w. W.
is BLAMED.

Globe, Ariz., Aug. S.-The Ranger
forces are expected to reach the
scene of the Apache uprising in the
Sierra Anchas mountains, fifty miles
northwest of this place, some time
tonight.
The Rangers are Fastening to the
scene of the trouble, but there is
some doubt if that force will be
equal to the task of subdoing the n
dians.
A report reaching here this morn
ing stated that nine white men were
in dugout surrounded by band of
one hundred striking Indians and
MeXicans from the asbestos mines.
The report stated that the impris-
oned white men had only very linn
tied supply of food and ammunition
and that unless help reached them
quickly the Indians would soon be
masters of the situation.
According to the best information
obtained here, two organizers belong
ing to the Industrial Workers of the
World and one Mexican have been
among the Indians at the asbestos
mines advising them to strike for
more pay and it. is believed that the
whole trouble is due to the agitation
of these men.

DRAFT NOTICES.
Re MAILED AGAIN
ABOUT TWENTY-FIVE RETURNED
BUT SENT AGAlN-REGIS-
TRANTS RESPONSIBLE.

Some twenty-five notification cards
sent out by the Glynn county exemp
tion board have been returned by
the postal authorities, who have been
unable to locate the parties to
whom the cards were addressed
The notices have been re-address-
ed, additional information secured
and the cards were re-mailed yes
terday in second attempt TO find
the rightful addresses.
The draft regulations provide that
exemption boards shall notify the
drafted men to appear for eXamina-
ton, but the failure of man to re-
ceive such notice does not constitute
an excuse for not appearing for e0+
animation.
The burden is placed on the regis
trant to keep himself informed as to
his order of liability for service and
the posting of the list OF men to be
summoned on the first call is consid-
cred by the federal authorities to Of
fer sufficient facilities to the drafted
men to inform themselves as to the
date on which they are to be exam
ined. The list of the first call men
has been posted in the office of the
clerk of the exemption board.
Therefore, even if man fails to
receive his notification card inform
ing him that he has been summoned
for examination on the first call, he
is supposed to have consulted the
posted list and found out whether
or not he is called Men who fail
to appear for examination are, under
the ruling of the war department,
posted as eligible for service and are
not allowed the right of claiming eX-
emptiCI.
