At Mexican Capital.

City of Mexico, Nov. 22.-Revolution
lists in large numbers captured Gomez
Balacio, an important town in Torreon
During the fighting the government
troops were driven out, but later they
were REINFORCED, and under Colonel
Ismael Zuniga they returned, driving
out the insurgents and chasing them
into the mountains. Many were killed
and wounded on both sides.
Well grounded reports are in circu.
Intion here that the mill workers at
0rizaba have joined the revolution and
are being armed rapidly. Nineteen of
fcers and privates Of one Of the reg
ular regiments were arrested and shot
to death in the Milvalley province
Saturday.
Trains from Orizaba are laden with
laborers fleeing from the mills. They
say they left their homes to keep out
or trouble.
The tenth regiment of regular in
fantry has been rushed from here to
Orizaba by special train. General
Luaue, who put down the recent upris-
ing in Yucatan, was in command, and
ed by two companies of infantry which
took part in the recent fighting at Pue-
bla, where more than $50 persons were
killed.
There have been insistent reports of
: serious trouble at Orizaba, but owing
to the strict censorship which has been
maintained by the government, which
has seized all the telegraph lines, It is
impossible to get at the facts in the
matter.
at the war office here all attaches
are working at top speed, and troops
are being sent out to all points as fast
as they can be modified and trains
obtained for their transportations.
Diaz In Personal Charge.
President Diaz himself has taken
personal charge of the situation and is
planning the various movements de-
signed to quell the uprising. 1t is evil
Gent that he regards the outlook as Sc
rlous, as'he has summoned Vice Presi-
dent Corral from Tehuacan, where he
went on account of i'll health.
Alarming reports were circulated
here of dissatisfaction in the army.
government officials strongly deny
this, but 1t is known that agents of the
reVolutlonists have been working
among the soldiers in the various gar
rlsons, and it would not be surprising
to learn that they had won over many.
Troops have been asked for by the
governor of the state Of Nueva Leon,
In which Guerrero is situated. Not
only is further trouble expected there,
but at Puebla, Guadalatara, Pachuca
and Orizaba.
An American of the name of James
M. Reed was shot and killed in the
Alameda, a park in the center of this
city. The policeman who did the shoot
Ing says that Reed and another Ameri-
can by the name of Loller were drunk
and that when he tried to induce them
to go home Reed drew a revolver and
fired n shot, which barely missed
the policeman. 1t was then chat Reed
was killed. When the body was
searched no revolver was found. IioI,
Ter is in Jail.
They're Using Water.
Word came from Puebla that ten
companions of AquIles Garden, who
headed the revolt at that place, are
concealed in a suhterranean passage,
and the soldiers have tried in vain to
dislodge them. Streams of water have
been poured into the passageways, but
the men have not been driven out.
1t is reported that President Diaz
contemplates putting this city under
martial law and that the edict to that
Bnsct may be looked for at any time.
1t is known that revolutionists have
been gathering here, and as the city
has been depleted Of troops owing to
their need elsewhere fear is felt Of a
revolt here.
