operator in the vicinity of San Marial.  He, like 
Sullivan had been attacked bythe Yaquis who killed
him and his Mixican servants.  It is said that the bodies 
of the victims were badly mutiliated.  General Torres left 
Hermosillo for the scene of the recent murders to see what

Mexicans at every opportunity.
