INDIANS OUTRAGE WOMEN DOUGLAS, Aris, Nov. 24.—All | the plans of General Alvero Obregon, Carransa commander-in-chief, to capture in Cananea the Villa forces of General Jose Rodriguez have failed. The capture of Cananea, which Obregon now holds, was an empty victory, it was Intimated in Carranza circles today for Rodriguez, eluding Obregon, escaped. The Villa comimander with a large | force has been definitely located en route to Nogales to reinforce Villa troops already there. In making his escape Rodrigues is reported to have killed an American engineer, who aided in the escape of his army. Pattad Mixerably While no official expression could be obtained In Agua Prieta today it was in- timated in officlal clircles that some of | Obregon's commanders to whom was as. signed the task of closing all roads from Cananea “falled miserably” and that be- cause of the fallure Obregon's plans of campalgn require a complete readjust- ment. The arrival of Rodriguez at Nogales, it was sald, would mean that instead of at- tacking a few hundred Villa troops taking the offensive, would have to fight a force variously estimated at from 3,000 to 7000 equipped with Villa’s heaviest artillery, The method of escape and the eluding of pursuit for three days of General Rodriguez was definitely ascertained by Carranza officlals here today. In leav- ing Cananea, Rodriguez, it was said, in- structed certain of his men to desert him and spread the information that the evacuating force had split. As he left Cananea he dispatched a lightly equipped cavalry force of sev- eral hundred, directly south. Fe then kidnapped an American engineer named Bean and compelled him to drive a train with his main army to ocltos. Engineer's hWody Found NACO, Ariz, Nov.
