revolutionists under Red" Lopez, to-
day hold this town, which they cap
tured yesterday after three hours
battle with the Mexican federal
troops. Reinforcements are expected
by the insurrectors, who intend hold
ing their advantage at almost any
cost. The town is an important
point and the insurrectos hope that

from the United States of their be-
ligerency. Further fighting is expect

One American in Douglas was |
killed and eight wounded. one mortal
ly, by bullets in the battle yesterday.
The loss to the engaging forces is
about equally divided and amounts to {
10 killed and 60 wounded. Two feder-
al officers and 29 men fled across
the International line, where they
were disarmed by the American troops
and Captain Gaujot, of Troop X, First
Cavalry, crossed the line with mes
sage to the remaining federals, from
their officers, telling them to sur
render. This they refused to do Tor
some time, but finally consented to
an agreement with the insurrecto
commander, to surrender to the
American soldiers, and for their arms
to be turned over to the VICTORIOUS
rebels.
A thousand, or more Americans
stood on the border, witnessing the
fight and were seemingly careless OF
the danger of stray bullets. Four

Mexico Held RESPONSIBLE

Washington, April 1.-THE Mexican
government, according to the view
of the state department, will be held
strictly accountable for the loss Of
life and injury to Americans at Dou-
glas, Arizona, during the fighting be-
tween the federals and insurrectos in
the battle Of Aqua Prieta yesterday.
No matter whether the fire of the
federals or that of the insurrectos in
flicted the injury, it will be the fed
eral government to which the United
States will look for reparation.
AS soon as official reports are re-
ceived, representations will be made
to the Mexican government and in
due time the claims of those killed
and injured will be presented. 1t is
undoubtedly true, however, that in
some cases Mexico will have counter
claims of contributory negligence on
the art of the injured Americans, who |
placed their own lives in jeopardy in
their anxiety to get as close to the
fight as possible.
The shrewdness of the insurrectos
in making their attack from the north
of Aqua Prieta so as to force it's de-
tenders to fire toward Douglas, has
aroused comment. 1t is believed that
they recognized the possibility that
such movement might result in COM
)lications of the Mexican government
With the United States.
Secretary of State Knox was at the .
White House at $3.50 this morning,
with the president about y
le situation arising out of the battle "

Baltimore police do not know anything
about the letter that was sent from Bal
timore to the Carey girl.
They were arrested last night at
o'clock while strolling about the down
town section Of the city, bent on q
Fourth Of July lark. A description OF
the Rose girl furnished the Baltimore
police, led to the arrest They were
locked up charged with being fugitives
from their parents.
The Carey girl displayed no undue ex-
citement when she was arrested, but
seemed to take it as matter of course.
Considering her Washington police
record and her recent lodging Of Central
office detectives and plain clothes men.
she thought the whole thing large joke
on herself.
It was different with the other girl It
was the first time she had ever been
arrested. and the gloomy rooms Of the
police precinct forced tears down her
cheeks.
She will return to-day to Washington
and be placed in the House of the Good
Shepherd. She is the daughter of Virgil
Polling, who lately received a verdict of
$4,000 damages from the Capital Traction
Company for injury to his legs.
