RANGERS
and COWBOYS TO
QUELL UPRISING
Hurry to Aid Of Whites
Surrounded by Indians
and Mexicans.

Globe. Ariz, Aug. "a force Of
mounted rangers led by Deputy
Sheriff Dan. Armer was expected to
reach the scene today of the Apache
Indian uprising in the Sierra Anchas
mountains, SO miles northwest of
here, where nine white men, en-
ployes of the asbestos mines in that
region, were reported to be surround
ed by a mob of more than 100 strik-
ing Indian and Mexican miners,
while a forest fire set by the Indians
was sweeping the mountains.
Other forces Of cowboys and forest
rangers are hurrying to the imper-
illed white mems aid from the Tonic
and from Roosevelt, while still others
went by automobile to Rice, where
they expected to obtain horses for
the ride to the mines.
First news Of the trouble, which
began yesterday when the Indians
and Mexicans employed in the asbes-
tos mine went on strike for higher
pay, was received last night in a tele-
phone message from a forest ranger
who had ridden 25 miles to give the
alarm. The ranger reported that the
Indians had set fire to the forces
and had been prevented from burn
action Of the guards.
Another telephone message said the
nine white men in the camp had been
driven into a dugout on the noun
tains and were surrounded by the In
dams and Mexicans. The men in the
dugout were said to be supplied with
ony a few rounds of ammunition and
small quantity Of provisions and II
was feared that they would not be
able to Withstand the combined as.
sault Of the strikers and the forest
fire.
Because Of the lack Of communities
ton all messages having to be carried
rs miles to telephone, details Of the
uprising are not yet known, but re-
ports indicated that two organizer
of the Industrial Workers Of the
| World, one Mexican who spoke
Apache, had been working among
| the men for the last week and had
! instigated the strike.

1t looks as if the war had pre-
vented a lot of folks from going to
lawyers with their troubles. This is
evident from the fact that only AZ
cases for the September term have
been filed so far in the superior court.
This is about half the number fled,
in this court a year ago at this time
Because the courts are not in session

last year at this time.

PETROGRAD, July 21.-Min-
lister of War and Marine Kerensky
has temporarily been named pre-
mier of Russia, succeeding Prince
Lvoff, resigned, according to an
announcement in the Bourse Ga
zette today.
Kerensky is to retain his place
as military and naval chief.
Tseretelli, formerly minister of
communications, was named min
lister of the interior in addition to
his present post.
Minister of Railways Nekrasoff
is temporarily filling the post of
minister of justice.
The new government is arres.-
ing on the charge of treason, all
of the organizations which par
took in the armed rebellion and
all instigators of the revolters.
Make Last Stand.
Affairs in Petrograd city are in
the immediate charge of General
Polovtzof, chief of the army gar
rison. M. Lebedey is minister OF
war and marine, Kerensky's naval
assistant, and NJ. Skobelov, form
erly minister of labor, is now act
ing special labor commissioners,
M. Nekrasov is railroad minister.
The Kronstadt revolters aud
other malcontents made their last
stand at the fortress of st. Peter
and Paul where the officials OF
the old regime in Russia are i'm
prisoned. Contrary to early re-
ports, they did not surrender.
Crowds in the streets saw arm
ed men on bicycles and other
skirmishers from actual trenches
dug in the approaching cross
ways, run first across Troitsky
bridge. More invaders sneaked
across other bridges, somehow
they managed to gain entrance to
the fortress.
Then the walls of the cid build
ing began to be dotted with fig
ures-some sailors and soldiers
uniforms-other the black CARRIED
Leninites who had occupied the
fortress when they were ousted
from the palace of the dancer
Ksheinska.

This "last stand" was dramatic.
The rat-a-tat-a-tat of the machine
guns sounded in the fortress yard,
mingling strangely with the mel
low chimes that poured their mel
ody from the glittering spire. The
tiny figures to be seen from the
river bank dotting the fortress
walls soon began to thin out. Then
over the bridges came the govern
ment's loyal troops, escorting a
filthy, unshaven body of prison.

They were some of the officials
of the old regime, their valvet
