the sections needed to make them legal

'would bo no way In which the best points

It wns difficult to see how the rec-ela
I'Vilerals Are llrlnforcrd.
The federal forces were reinforced last
night by the arrival of detachments of a!l
arms of the services. Many of the rebeU
had fortified themselves In the district,
tho center of which, the arsenal tell Into
their hands lately.
The rebels, howevor, had not lncreasd
in number and the size df the army under
th command of Diaz is believed to be
only a little over 2,t00.
Most of the federals who arrived In tho
night were those commanded by Gcniral
Angeles, which he had called from
Cuernavaca. The total of these Is said
to be I.S00, and they brought with then
two pieces of heavy artllcry wlth much
ammunition and stores.
Lieutenant Colonel Daron, who has con
ducted dashing campaigns during ' the
revolution In Mlchoacan and Guanajuato,
arrived with a small force, while Colonel
Ocaranta, another young' oflcer with a
reputation for brilliant work, came In r.t
the head of 5)00 federal troops from Vera
Cruz.

Straggling federals who arrived at the
American embassy at noon declared that
a detachment of government troops -was
shot to pieces on the western edge of tho
city early today. This Indicates that
Diaz has a mobile force outside his lines
In the central district.
United fitatcs Ambassador Henry I vine
Wilson prevented the Issuo of a general

were conserving their fire, although they
continued to throw shells toward tho

in action at the Oolonla station, on thn

Thn, first sharp small arm engagement

lp to noon, when tho shells of the
contending forces had torn their way
through tho heart of the city for four
hours, nothing like a decisive result had
been achieved, either by the federals or
the rebels. It had been practically i an
artillery duel, although occasionally
small arm fire played a vicious part In
the battle.
The swift and crushing action promised
by the government was not eullzed. On
the contrary tbo fighting was of a
monotonous regularity, tho federal troops
slowly pounding tho rebel position and
endeavoring to silence Diaz's guns In
order that the final charge might be
made with lesa sacrifice of life. To this
the rebels replied with' a steady fire, but
they were more chary. In throwing away
their ammunition and appeared to take
better aim than ever.
Much of the rebel flro was directed at
the fedoral batteries, but one of Dlaz'a
batteries from time to time dropped

Trouble Due to Attempt

Prisoners,
1SL PASO. Tex., Feb. 13. The riots at
.Chihuahua City were .caused by an at
tempt of rebels to liberate prisoners in
the penitentiary, say American refugees
who nci-lved this morning on a bela'-d
pascnger train.
They reported that a truce had bce.i
mado between General Antonio Itabago,
the federal commander of the northern
military zone, nnd Marccllo Carraveo, a
rebel general. The rebels were permitted
to camp within five miles of the city
and on Tuesday they attempted to opon
the prison. Federal troops prevented the
attempt without bloodshed. A riot fol
lowed.
- Jt wa-J said that the situation
showed Uie best feeling between the
rebels and government troops, but that
General Ttabago lnslsted"that opening the
stato prison was going' too far. Quiet
had been restored Wednesday when the
train departed, only to encounter two
burned bridges below Juarez. These were
repaired, but all telegraph lines to the
s.tate capital remain cut.
Tho refugees reported tho federal, troops
were expected to welcome the Plaz revolt

account of the most disquieting feature
of the fighting In Mliclcb' Clty-the killing
of two American women yesterday.
Administration officials look with much
apprehension on the offect of tho killing
of two Americans, nnd one of the first re
sults of the Incident was last night's
order to Ambassador Wilson to warn all
Americans out of the danger zone.
Ambassador Wilson's course so far naa
the unqualified approval of tho admlnlK
tratlon, though some of the army nun
question his attempt to stop hostilities
Admitting that his aim was to protect
lives of Americans and other foreigners,
they believe there will bo less bloodshed
and a speedy termination of tho rebellion
If the combatants are allowed to fight :t
out
Secretary Knox and his Immediate ad
visers, however, do not accept this view
and although instructions have been sent
to the ambassador to do everything pos
sible to Induce the American residents
of Mexico City to vacato their homes
tempdrnrlly and go to somo place of
