Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico, July 11— Reports from outlying districts indi- cate renewed activity on the part of the Yaqui Indians. T has been an- ticipated by those familiar with condi- tions in Sonora because the campaign inaugurated by the de facto govern- ment in January for the purpose of ridding the country of the Yaquis has not as yet been a success. Approximately 7,000 troops were mobilized under General Dieguez to drive the Indians from their strong- holds in the but the soldiers were poorly equipped for the undertaking. They lacked dis- Bacatetebe mountains, cipline, organization and spirit, and although the Mexican government may have desired an aggressive cam- paign the local leaders nd men had no intention of taking the offensive against the savages, whose fighting ability is well known throughout the republic. Arizona, the Yaquis have committed For this operate Like the Apache tribes of the most fiendish atrocitie reason the troops fear to against the warriors. 4,000 Are Well Armed. The strength of the Indians accurately known, but is estimate! being about 10,000, of which appr imately 4,000 are well armed fightir men. This force generally operates in bands of fifty to one hundred or more, which make swift and unexpect- | ed raids upon outlying ranches and villages during the harvest season and at other times, if their food sup- ply happens to run low, as is the case at the present time. Spies are main- tained throughout the farming dis- tricts who keep the. tribe well in- formed and ist in the raids. The Indians dress as do the peons with shirt and trousers of faded blue denim or khaki, usually the latter it is more easily procurable, for many Yaquis have served in the revolution- ary armies. A large straw hat, not unlike that worn by northern farm- ers, with brim turned down, protscts them from the sun and conceals their identity when necessary: and their feet are protected from the rough country by leather sandals—guara- chos, as they are called.
