 NOT LEAVE SENATE

Washington. December 2-'Retire," ex- claimed Senator Tillman, repeating an in- quiry, "I shall not retire until they bury me: have no idea of quitting the game"
 The South Carolina senator. who ar rived here today. was in his committee room at the capitol and appeared to be as vigorous as he was before he was stricken down by severe illness during tie last session of Congress.
 MT. Tillman expects to remain here four or five days only, however. He will re- turn to his home next week, but counts upon coming back to Washington early in January, when, he says, the real busi- ness of the session will begin. He said he felt in good condition for work, but would not apply himself so assiduously as for merly. Mrs Tillman emphasized the last remark by declaring that she would keep him as quiet possible.
 Yes, said the senator. "she is running the airship, and I guess she will be able to keep it pretty close to earth
 Senator Tillman attributes his restora- tion to health to the fact that since he got out of bed he has been giving his at tention to the building of big barn on his plantation. He said the work ben efitted him by giving him something to think about besides himself.

Mexico City, December 2.-News dis- patches received from Chihuahua today state that Mexican soldier arriving there wounded reported that the govern mert forces lost 20 killed and wounded in the fight at St. Andreas last Sunday, after which they withdrew to Pedernales, where they halted for food. According to this version of the battle, which has been earlier reported as having resulted in the rout of the revolutionists, the gov ernment forces were attacked in the morning by 400 rebels.
 The lightning continued for eight hours, when the soldiers had exhausted their ammunition. The rebels closed in and were met with bayonet charge. With their bayonets the loyal troops fought their way through the enemy and subse- quertly 30 of them reunited and started for Chihuahua
 The rebels gave. chase and made three attacks. Each time they were repulsed. The soldiers. however, suffered severely. The inhabitants of the country through which they retreated refused to give them water or food, and in some instances fired upon them from the hilltops. Most of them were wounded and suffered severely from hunger and thirst.
 Tho military authorities stated they suspected the railroad men along the line of the recent fighting were in col fusion with the insurgents.
 Telegraph operators, they said, had ad- vised the rebels of the movements of the troops trains, which also were stopped without orders at points where ambushes had been prepared.
