Choate, the United States Embassador to Great Britain, was interviewed to-day by a rep- resentative of the United States in re- gard to the recent ‘‘war or arbitration” speech delivered by r Wilfrid Laurer, the Canadian Premier. He said: “Thcre will be no war. It is safe to say that no amount of political talk by politicians in other countries could occasion war in this connection.” The Embassador, continuing, said that the Canadian Parliament was on the eve of dissolution and the leaders of both par- ties nad to speak. Mr. Choate seemed to think that the latter circumstance ex- LONDON, Aug. & he was inclined to attach smail impor- | tance to the Premier's remarks. r. | Choate added that the negotiations were | “But,” he explained, “they | Iways slow and I can say nothing | t present as to their status.” | Regarding Mr. Choate's statement the Canadian High _Commissioner, Lord Stratncona and Mount Royal, said to a | csentative of the Associated Press: | Wilfrid Laurier's remark was | y a figure of speech and not a po- tical dodge, as intimated by Mr. Choate. Sir Wilfrid Laurier would not descend to such a thing, nor did he in any way mean to challenge the United States.

We selieve President McKinley s thoroughly in earnest in his endeavor to have the ques- tion honestly settled. The misinterpre- tation of Sir Wilfrid Laurier's rcinarks by the United States is unfortunate. Any bitterness or abuse by the Canadian press is absolutely unauthorized.

MEXICO T0 BLAVE FOR FAQUL WiR Treacherous Treatment of the Indians by General Carbo. 0D FELD AWIKENS Extermination of the Tribe Means Disaster to the State of Sonora. ity By GUSTAV EISEN. The seriousness of the Yaqui war in | Sonora cannot possibly be overestimat- ed. The question at issue is not merely if the Yaquis are to be conquered or not, but the whole welfare of the coun- try is at stake. If the war is continued until the Yaquis are pacified or exter- minated dire disaster is sure to befall that beautiful State. The extermina- tion of the Yaqui Indians simply means the destruction of the manual labor in Sonora. The Yaquis are not only the best and most trusted workers in Sog nora, but they constitute the largest number of able workingmen in that State. The Yaquis can in no way be com- pared with the Indians of this coast. | nor with any other Indians in the United States, except, perhaps, the Cherokees and a few other tribes known for their peacefulness and for their love of application to agriculture. Since the very first settlement of So- nora by the Spaniards the Yaquis have inhabited a small triangular territory situated in the delta of the Yaqui River and extending from the Gulf to a place inland called Buena Vista. A few Ya- quis are settled as far up as Comurifa, but the principal Yaqui country is as just stated further down the coast. In this territory the Yaquis were found by and their tradition is have resided from im- memorial times, For centuries the Mexican Government acknowledged the right of the Yaquis to live in and to cultivate this territory and for centu- ries the Yaquis remained peacefully at their work of cultivating the soil and as general labor ewhere. Within their territory the Yaquis have even now retained independent govern- ment, with chiefs to decide according to their laws and to mete out punish- ment to the gui and so perfect has been their method of self-government that the Mexican Government has had no occasion to interfere. The Yaqui is by nature moral and industrious and no complaint can be made against him on that account. All over Sonora there are found Yaquis in time of peace working in the fields and in the mines and even as laborers on the railroads. In the latter capacity they are more and more trusted than any and we know of instances where railroad agents have preferred Yaqui section bosses to those of other nationalities. AS a laborer the Yaqui is hard-work- ing and faithful and can always be re- lied on. He does not shirk his work when his foreman turns his back and he does not shorten his day’s work by continued cigarette smoking. No won- der, therefore, that he is highly valued for the work he can and does perform. As do many other laborers, he gets drunk when pay comes on Saturday evening, but he confines his carousing to the rancheria in which he lives and keeps his family and when Monday morning comes around every man is at his work. The Yaqui country from Buena Vista to the gulf has always been held as common property by the Yaquis as a tribe and has never been portioned out to individuals as in other communities. The reason for this is found in the na ture of the territory itself. The fer- tility of the Yaqui delta depends en- tirely upon the overflow of the Yaqui Rive: In times of heavy rains the delta and adjacent river bottom lands are covered by water or made moist by subirrigation, while in dry seasons the contrary is the case. As the ter- ritory is large, each individual can always find a place suitable for cultivation for that particular season. Next season he may have to move to another place in order to find moisture and other conditions necessary. Now it is evident that if the land were not held in common and if every Yaqui had his own allotted piece some would pos- sess suitable land for cultivation while others would have dry lands, which would be worthless unless properly ir- rigated, All the recent trouble with the Yaquis arises from this fact. ~The Mexican Government wants the Yaquis to divide their land so that every individual may This the Yaquis refuse to do. The trouble originated some years ago when under the presi- Qency of Juarez the Mexican Govern- ment passed a law that there should be no more public lands in the repub- lic, but that all lands so held should be surveyed and sold. The same law required every individual community which possessed a ‘“common” to have the same surveyed at its own expense and to have it divided and portioned off, if not sold in a body for the good | of the community by which the *‘com- mon” was held. Thus In 1863 the town of Hermosillo, now the capital of So- nora, had to survey its common and dispose of it. That this law was a most unjust and illegal one no one can very well deny. Suppose the United States Government should pass a law that San Francisco should divide up its Golden Gate Park and its Yosemite reservation and give every man a piece in order that he might better and more undisturbed en- joy his share. What would be said of such a law and how would Americans stand such oppression? They would un- doubtedly object and the chances are that they would forcibly resist any in- terference with their personal and pub- lic_rights. That is exactly what the Yaquis have | done. Indeed, so vested were the Yaquis | in the possession of their land that the Mexican Government hesitated to ap- ply the law to their territory, but al- Jowed them at least for the time being to possess their land undisturbed. While all other public lands in Mexico were surveyed and distributed, the Yaqui country had remained intact for about twenty vears when the first Yaqui war broke out. The outbreak of the war, which ex- terminated one-third of the Yaqu was, strange to say, not brought about by the Mexican Government, but by one of its generals in order to further his own selfish ends. At that time General Jose Gulllermo Carbo was commander of the federal forces in So- nora. Having illegally spent mony in- trusted to him for paying his troops, he corcelved the idea mnot only to cover his peculations but also to bring about a war In order to gain all he could. In time of peace every general is obliged to send in strict accounts to Yaqui | FAMINE DRI THEM V driven desperate by famine. gouth by the Danube and the 2URONONTD g g g g f=g In case of war, on the Government. > draw _supplies the contrary, he may and money for expenses, and a large part may then find its way (0 private pockets without chance of discovery. The only nation on which Carbo could think of making war was the Yaquis, then partly living on their reservation, partly distributed over Sonora, Arizona and even New Mexico as workers in the fleld and in the mines. At that time the Yaquis were governed by a chief called Cajemi, an honest and skillful man, generally esteemed and | against whom no one had —ever had | any complaints. seneral Carbo found | as a pretext that Cajemi had not ful- | filled the Mexican law regarding the | partition of the land and brought | against him other trumped-up charges. | “*Without any right whatever Carbo | appointed another chlef over = the Yaquis, cne who was an outlaw and | outcast from his own tribe. Carbo promised this man every help it he could oust Cajemi and bring about as much disturbance as possible. This new chief and desperado got small band of dissatisfied without warning surprised wife and children and murdered them in cold blood. Cajemi himself was ab- | sent from home at the time or he would have shared the fate of his | family. Z | Cajemi at once prepared to attack i narauders, when to his and every- astonishment he found them backed by the Maxican Federal Gov- ernment, through General Carbo. po’ put 3000 men in the field against Cajemi, but was signally de- feated in two open battles. The war, | once begun, could not be stopped, and raged with more or less activity for | at last| fourteen years. Cajemi was enticed into a palaver with Carbo, who offered him safe conduct. Hardly had Cajemi shown himself before he was captured and shot and me of his principal men were slain with him. This, of course, did not stop the war. Other chiefs took up the strife, only to pay with their life for their foolhardi- ne And the war dragged on. cost the Mexican Government millions and millions of dollars and thousands of men. How many soldiers were killed in the last will know with any certainty, estimate gives the number a diers laid low by Yaqui bulle every For fourteen years this would n over 20,000 men. Mexican | Government was bliged to keep a standing army at San Marcial of be- tween three thousand and four thou- sand men, and comparatively few of these ever returned to the State from ; which’ they came. | " On the other hand the Yaquis num- bered at the beginning of the war about thirty thousand men. When in 1897 peace was made there ten thousand Yaquis. The tactics of the Yaquis are to attack suddenly and to ambush and immedi- ately after the assault to run back into the mountains, where no one can fol- Jow them. After a Yaqui has fought for some time he suddenly becomes a peaceful Indian and leaves the terri- tory in which the war rages. This hap- pens when his ammunition is all spent; he must then provide himself with more. This he does by working in Ari- zona and New Mexico, as in these places he can procure arms with his but a low 1500 sol savings and return when he has enough. When he has accumulated enoush he returns by passing from Arizona through the Sierra Madre Wilderness, where he is free from sol- diers’ bullets and from observing eyes, and when least expected he turns up fully equipped with munitions to carry on the war. The Yaqui is not the bloodthirsty | beast that some reports have made him | out to be. He is brave, industrious and peaceful; he does not torture his pris- oners, but neither does he allow them to | escape. The Yaqui looks upon the na- | tive Sonoran as his friend and brother, and both Sonorans and Americans are tarely the subject of his attack. But the Mexican soldier, who is always | drafted from some distant state, is al- | Ways the especial object of his hatred lan(l considered as his mortal enemy. In 1897 peace was made with the | | Yaquis. The Government promised | them a certain sum of money and they | in tur veyed and partitioned. During the last two vears the Yaquis have quietly | been working in the mines of Sonora and Arizona and have saved their earn- | ings in order to procure arms to renew the war. Whatever will be the out- come of the war, it will be a most ruin- | ous one for Sonora. If the Yaquis are | exterminated, as the reports tell us is the intention of General Torres, then the effect will soon be felt. Tt will mean the extermination of the manual labor in Sonora; it will mean the crippling | of her wheat and mining industries. | The Mexican Government have afforded to allow the Yaquis to remain in possession of their land, as | their value as laborers s many, many times greater than the price that can | be realized by selling their land. Sonora | is a country with immense resources, with enormous tracts of fertile soil where almost anything might be grown profitably. Such crops as wheat, sugar- | cane, beans, corn, oranges, dates, | peaches. apricots and many other fruits | hre hardly surpassed anywhere. What | Sonora requires is not the Yaqui terri- | tory, but a development of its own irri- | gation facilities. The present Governor of Sonora is | one of the most farseeing and enlight- ened and peaceful men in Sonora, and it is a great pity that the settlement of | the Yaqui trouble could not have been left with the civil authorities instead | of with the War Department. Sonora ean well afford to dispense with the Yaqui country, but it cannot afford to kill off the Yaquis. MAYOS MAY JOIN IN THE YAQUI WAR Young Braves Are Dancing and a Rising of the Tribe’s Fighting Men Is Feared. AUSTIN, Tex., Aug. 8.—A dispatch ffom Chihuahua, Mex., states thatmuch uneasiness is felt in military circles there over the attitude of the Mavo | tribe of Indians in the State of Sonora toward the Mexican authorities in the present uprising of the Yaqui braves. | The fighting force of the Mayo tribe is much better than that of the Yaquis, and they have in the past for many years been at peace with the Govern- ment. But the younger braves of “he tribe are now aroused over the war- fare that is being waged just to the west of them and an open revolt is threatened. Dancing has been going on among the Mayos for the past three weeks and a rising may occur at any moment. The Mayos have long been friends of the Yaquis, but they have held aloof from them in their previous wars Troops Sent to Quell a Rising Russia Kill a Score of Peasants.

On the arrival of the artillery | and the machine guns the Mexican gen- | eral will close in on the Indians and | precipitate the biggest battle ever | fought between the Government and | the Yaquis. | The reports from General Torres re- | garding the killing of Remley and Mil- | ler say their bodies were found hang- | ing from a tree with the hands and feet cut off.

RECOMMENDS A GOLD STANDARD FOR INDIA Lord George Hamilton Says It Is the Only Financial Safeguard of The ened forcements are the Country. LONDON, Aug. 8.—In the House of Commons to-day the Secretary of State for India, Lord George Hamil- ton, in introducing the Indian budget, said that after careful consideration the Government has deliberately con- cluded that a gold standard was re- quired in the interests of India and that they should not be deterred from prosecuting this policy by all means in their power merely because the next phase in the advancement was coinci- dent with abnormal or temporary fail- ure of the recommendation. “If,” continued the Secretary, “we nks of England and France, it would bé‘a fruitful ally in establishing a gold standard.” Continuing, Lord George Hamilton said he hoped the new century would be associated with a series of financial surpluses in India available for the re- duction of taxes, an industrial develop- ment which would combine to give In- dia the fullest value of its association with the cheapest, largest and most fructifying market in the world. The surplus, he said in conclusion, | this year will be 44,000,000 rupees. e NO JOINT COMMISSION. Transvaal Volksraad Declines Cham- berlain’s Suggestion.

HAVANA, Aug. 8.—General Jun Isidro Jiminez, the aspirant to the presidency of the republic of San Domingo, s that several Dominican generals have already declared in his favor, in spite of his ad- vice to them to delay definite action. He denies that the Dominican Government has 3700 troops under arms, and asserts that the present executive will not be able to make an effective resistance, owing to Aug.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8—From the character of the instructions sent to Gen- eral Brooke to-day it is evident that the sident and Secretary Root have been ng serlous consideration to the threat- €ned San Domingo revolution.
