EiSUHCUt
Mexico City, Nov. 23.-Advices
were received here to the effect that
Parral and Chihuahua we're attacked
by bandits, who sacked various
stores and then disappeared before
the troops who had been sent arrived
at the towns. A number of police
men were killed In the fighting that
occurred. but the government de-
clares that the men making the at
tacks were bandits and not revolu-
tionists.
1t is stated on high authority that
President Diaz contemplates making
sweeping reforms in the cabinet af-
ter his reinauguration on Dec. 2. It
Is the custom for all the ministers
