Waiihiiietun, June 22.--Conditioiia in
ihi) Yaqui Valley, where the United
,States is faced with the possibility of
landing forces to protect settlers
•tgainst raiding Indians are described
MS desperate in today’s St:»to Depart-
nii'nt advice.
One settlor who left the valley on
I lie last train and arrived at Nogales
jesterday said half of the valley had
been devastated without protest from
the forty Villa troops who were the
only soldiers in the region.
One ranch, presumably American-
bwned, had been surroundfd by four
(lays, he said, by 500 mounted Indians
and 1100 on foot. The settlers were pre
pared to defend themselves against at
tack until American marines should
arrive. Ho expressed the belief thai
Maytorena’s Mexican forces would be
unable to check the Indians.
Odicials here believe, however, that
the settler left the valley before any
»f the additioiuil troops ordered to the
Yaqui region by Governor Maytorena
had bi’en dispatched. More recent ad
vices from American olTicials and
«ithers near the valley, it was said, had
not reporliMt any new attacks on for
eigners .

Ijresumably by Zapata raiders. Olli-
cials thought that might mean that

capital and that raiding forces might
be operating between (JentTal Gonzales
and Vrra Cruz.

New York, June 22.—Harry K.
Thaw's fourth legal effort to gain
freedom was called today before Jus
tice I’eter H. Hendrilk and a jury in
the supreme court. There was some
thing about Thaw, his relatives am!
friends that indicated tliat they were
very hopeful of success.
Justice Hendrick, however, pointed
out that the jury wan an advisory body
anil not a trial jury. "If they come
to one conclusion wtiile I reach an
other, 1 shall not be bound by their
tindings.” he added.
Thaw was so contident of sucress
that he was planning to attend the
Panama I’aeitic Kxposition after the
trial.
Dr. Raymond Kleb. superintendent
of Matteawan Asylum, and Dr. (’ar
los MacDonald, an alienist, were pros

The Greenville Chautauqua is now
in full progress, the performances of

Their imitation of grand opera at the
evening performance in which they
sang the "Anvil Chorus”, taken from 11
