It is known I'that the tribe retains a political or- i an ganization. What appears to be almost mythical supreme chief reigns in the hills-above their valley and is said to direct the actions of the minor chiefs who have taken groups of the tribe into the Mexican warfare. The Associated Press correspondent during a recent trip to the west coast with Carranza, learned this and, a number of other interesting things concerning the Yaquis, about whom little true material has hitherto been pubiished. Although they have been in almost constant warfare since the organiza- tion of the Mexican nation, the Yaquis never have been fully conquered = or won over to European . civilization. But their struggle against the ad. vance of civilization did not assume threatening proportions until the re- cent revoluticnary activities ' gave them modern.war muhitions and ‘mil- itary training. warlike’ Mexican Indian had confined himself to guerilla fighting. The, arming of the Yaquis to take part.in | | Mexico’'s domestic .quarrel made pos- sible their more extensive miilitary movements, threatening not anly the American colonists in: the Yagqui val- ley about Guaymas; but the sovereign- ty of the Mexican race . along ‘that rich' portion of the west coast.

It has been only recently that their assaults were directed against the American settlers in the valley, ‘who had given the Indians profitable -mployment as laborers. The Yaqui was not considered an especially dangerous neighbor until the ‘advent of the (‘onsmuuonausu révolution. With the'separation ot the Carranza and Villa ‘factions, a; struggle began between ' those two parties. in Sonora state. . The Indians aiready had been armed and enlistea as troops . in the ' Constitutionalist army, doing the bulk of the despérate fighting in the cantests for the towns along the ' Arizona-Sonora :border. These Indians were considered ‘‘pa- cifico,” or peaceful Yaquis. But on opportune occasions they demanded the return. of their tribal jands, and only would remain in the reyolution service after securing promises from the factional ' leaders. For more than ‘a year, however, it has become evident that the supposedly friendly Yaqui was working, in ' conjunction with his wilder brother who had re- mained in the hills. Arms and am- munition in large guantities given to the Indiags enlisted.in the Constitu- tionalist army were smuggled on the backs of,Yaqui runners into the moun- tain passes and there were -hidden. The enlisted Indians would return after an insignificant skirmish ' and demanded more ammunition. Their Mexican officers did not dare to're- fuse it. Situation More Serious. The sityaticn became more serious Wwhen Jose Maria Maytorena, = the Villa governor of the state, brought the Yaqui troops into northern Son- ora. Previously they had been used only against Huerta’s federal troops about ‘Guaymas. Maytorena's Yaquis took part in the attacks on the Car- ranza garrisons at Nogales, Naco and Cananea. In former years under the Diaz administration these Indians had been driven into southern Sonora by continued fighting along the Arizona border in which they met the feleral “rurales,” Mexico's rural police which was considered the most efficient fifghting arm of the former dictator. The forceful exiling into southern Mexico of large numbers of Yaqui men had failed to break the warlike | spirit of the, race. Rumors asserted ' that the Yaqui | leaders were controlling the Maytor- ena government. These were denied officially until the more recent de- { velopments showed that the so-c&]lad “pacifico”. Yaquis were working conjunction with their “broncho” or wild brothers in their life-long at- tempt to regain the valley farming lands now developed to a high de- | gree by the American farmers. The 'American colonists had bought the land from the Mexican owners, who in | i n | | ‘ment or private concessions in about | the sameé manner as the American | Indian’s territory in the United States was colonized and developed. The .| state government found itself power- less to prevent the raids by the “broncho” settlements since the large propor- tion of Indian troops would not per- mit warfare against their hill tribes- men. This led to the sending down the west coast of American marines with orders to land if necessaty to save the lives of the American set- tlers who though in grave danger would not leave their farms in fear of losing their crops and property. Mayo Tribe Yaqui Rival. | The Yaquis' rival, but first cousin, is the Mayo Indian whose lands close- | 1y adjoin the Yaqui valley.

Orders . to that ecect’ had “been .issued,’ it was said. Sir Robert Borden, Premier of Canada, is"opne of the passengers, bound for and frequently victorious over the Yaqui tribe, is of a more peaceful in- clination and has retained by diplo- matic ‘means some valuable farming land. The Mayo also entered revolutionary struggle. Large num- bers of the Mayo braves joined the Carranza ranks, and have been assist- ing materially in the Obregon vic- tories over the Villa army in central Mexico. This left the Yaqui in undis- puted control in Sonora. formerly suggested, of playing ‘The Mayo against the Yaqui could not be employed since the bulk of the Mayo fighting men- had been removed, ! “The racial - characteristics of ‘the Yaqui of Mexico are similar to those of the Apache, who caused continued thg southwestern United States. Yaqui is credited with direct rela- tionship' to the Apache. Like his northern cousin the Yaqui has been guilty of all manner of brutality di- rected against his prisoners, known to have employed modes of torture as skillful as those of the ancient Chinese. This has caused a fear of the Yaqui which was not due entirely ' to his.military ability. - The Yaqui was the first Mexican tribe to become fulyl armed with rifles, and to become skillful in their use. Other tribes along the west coast still em- ploy the bow and arrow for hunting and in some cases in fighting any alien invaders. Skilled 'in Military Methods. ‘While retaining his tribal tongue and savdige customs, the Yaqui be- came skilled in military methods. He kept his skillful manner of guerilla warfare, but adopted to a large extent some European methods.

These drums took had the advantage of their peculiar noise of making it difficult for the enemy to. locate the: source of the sound. Mexican neighbors . the Yaqui de- veloped a more extensive system of drum signals, until his officers could command. large numbers of men fo make all manner of movements. The Yaqui unlike other Indians had marched in military until deployed for action. tles were won merely by the noise of their Yaqui drums which seemed to terrorize the enemy when the sounds of the beats appeared to come from all directions. Yaqui drummers would crawl to the enemy’s flanks and by beating out some signal make it appear that the position was being surrounded. Numerical Strength Unknown. No reliable information is dvailable as to the Yaqui's actual numerical strength, so varying are the reports | of the Mexican military -authorities | and American settlers. But it is known that several thousand rifies, mostly of | the military model, are in the hands of the Indians, and that large amounts of ammunition have been obtained by the hill tribesmen. The Yaqui’s man- ner of warfare, and familiarity with the country would make most difficult, it is believed by the valley settlers, his complete defeat and disarmament. ARCTIO SOWN WITH MINES.

Berlin, July 3.—The war has fe~ veloped what might be termed .an| “artillery 'ear” . especially among the /soldiers in this branch of the servi i'Which enables them to judge acour- {ately what kind of a shell'is being fired at them, and whether or not it | is'aimed ‘at their battery on at some other spot. Many lives have been saved by this gradually developed oral alertness. The artillerist, explains an officer, , who has been in the field for montas, is ‘able almost instinctively, to tell whether a shell is headed for his bat- tery or not. The men have learned to pay not the slightest attention to a shot that gives off the ' pecullar sound indicating that it is aimed at some other batery or position, Because of the confusing noise of | the artillerist’s own battery, fhe squad | tending it usually is divided. into two groups, one of which listens for fhe { shells of the opponents, and gives warning to dive for the shelters back of the guns. The men learn to talk with pauses between each word, list- ening meantime for the = tell-tale i whistle of the dangerous shell. . Only, in' the case of the small field cannon, fired at a range of. say 2,000 yards, is it impossible to hear the shell in time to dive into the security i of the sheltering ‘“‘understand.”” Theose Shells 'nave reached their mark about as soon as the sound of ‘their dis~ charge. The = 12-centimeter flat-trajectory | guns on the other hand gives just j enough warning so that the ‘men ¢an make one dive, There isn't one frgc- tion of a second to be wasted, but by quick action the artilerist ¢can save himself. The big howitzers however give nearly half a minute’s warning. = As the officer puts it, one can hear tae shells from these guns, and still cut off a slice of wurst and take a swal- low from one’s “field bottle” before seeking shelter. The shelter in this case must be a genuine shelter, con+ sisting of about three layers of heavy wood, and two yards of earta and stone. Else the shelter and artiller« | ists are gone, MASCOT OF RUSSIANS, Tiflis, July 3,—Hadzhina, a wild little six-year-old Kurdish girl, has become the mascot of a Russian ar- tillery regiment operating on the Per- sian frontier. She was left behina when the population of the Armenian village of Hazar fled and Russian soldiers found her, clad in a filthy shirt, hiding in the depths of a bake oven. After she had recovered from fright under the kind treatment of her captors, the little one told through an interpreter how she had been left behind by her mother who escaped taking with her = another child. Her father, she said, was a soldier and had been taken prisoner by the Russian troops. Youngest British Baronet.
