Show INDIANS WERE ROUTED. Mexican Troops Have a Lively Fight With Hostile Yaquis. Hermosillo, Mexico, Sept. 2. A company com-pany of valunteers went from here to Pitaya to join Colonel Pienadoe's command com-mand and arrest the Yaquis who had destroyed the telegraph lines to Potam. The troops met a band of about eighty Yaquis and a short fight occurred, in which one soldier was killed and the Indians routed. General Torres's headquarters have been entirely cut off from telegraphic communication with the outer world for the last five days. The Yaquis burned about a mile of telegraph poles and carried the wire away. |
