Nogales, Ariz., Oct. 22.—The state of Sonora, and in fact the entire republic of Mexico, is in a fever of excitement by reason of the Yaqui Indians along the Yaqui River having declared war and entered upon a campaign which promises to be a bloody and troublesome one. The Mexican government is concentrating troops as rapidly as possible, and preparations are being made for a vigorous campaign. The importance of the situation leaked out through contracts being made in this city for a large supply of cartridge-belts and canteens, and the urgent request that orders be filled with all possible haste, regardless of expense.
