 DOUGLAS, Ariz., Aug. 26.-Testi- mony of a blood-curdling nature con- corning the brutal treatment of men. women and children in the Warren district on July 18th, 1917, was given before Justice w. C. Jack yesterday afternoon during the second session of the joint hearing of 200 Douglas and Bisbee citizens charged with kid naping as the result of their alleged participation in the deportation dur ing the l. W. w. trouble in the War ren district. The outstanding point about the blood-curdling testimony given by the states witnesses. how ever, was that it was based on ru, moTs or on what the witnesses had been told, while what they said they had actually been depicted a calm state of affairs.

Tovrea prominent Cochise county meat dealer. The witness said he saw Black armed. in front of the Bisbee postoffice on the morning of the day the deportations. and when Black, testified Rodriguez, walked down The railroad track towards Low ell with a crowd of guards aRd de- portees. He also saw Marr acting as if he were on guard at the postoffice. said the witness. Tovrea. according to Rodriguez. got out of an automo- bile with several other men at Bak- erville and joined the line of armed citizens who were marching the de- ported men to Warren. Warrington was another guard in front of the postoffice. said Rodriguez. On cross examination the Mexican admitted that none of the defendants named by him had anything to do with put ting him in line. The man who had him, said Rodriguez, was not in the court room.
