Washington, March 24.--Dr. Vas
quez Gomez, head of the confidential
agency OF the Mexican revolutionists
mere, issued a statement today, criti-
cising the utterances of Dr, G. +.
Naricristi who said yesterday tnat
President Taft would intervene IN
Mexico If tranquility had not been re-
stored before May |. DIR. Gomez as
serted that DIR. Caracristi was mot a
member OF any regularly established
revolutionary junta In the United
states, nor can he be in any way a
representative of Francisco |. Madero'
president of the provisional govern
lnent.
While believing that DR.. Caricristi
may be sympathizer with the revoin-
uonary movement said Gomez, as
are many others in the United States
! am convinced that the opinions
given BY that gentleman must be pure
y personal. as many OF them are ao-
sointely contrary to the official pro-
gram OF the revolutionary party anu

TWO VICTORIES
FOR INSURRFCTOS
REPORTED THAT FEDERALS DE-
FEATED IN TWO ENGAGE
MENTs NEAR CHIHUAHUA
Messenger Says 100 Federals Were
Killed and SO Taken Prisoners at
Chihuahua.

Preside, Tex, March 20, Via Mar
fla, Tex, March "a. According to
mes4enger who reported today to

sieging the town of Ojinaga, insurrec-
tos under the direct command oi
Francisco |. Madero have won an i'm
portant victory in the Vicinity of the
city of Chihuahua, routing the federal
troops after 160 had been killed and
so taken prisoners.
The messenger came from the town
Of FalmOre, the terminus of the Kan
sas City and Orient Railroad, the only
line of communication out Of Chihua-
hua not interrupted. He could give no
further details of the reported bat
tie other than that American physi-
clans were brought from Chihuahua 10
care for the wounded and the state
anent OF an American train conductor
whom he quotes as saying that the
railroad line up to the city limits was
being patrolled by insurgents. Fal-
more is in the hands of the rebels.
Another report received at the in
Isurrecto camp today was that in a
clash at Chocolate Pass in the state
OF Sonora, the column OF troops com
manded by General Rabago was de-
feated This report, however. is
without confirmation.
The daily battle between the oppos
ling forces at Ojinaga occurred today
at Canada Ancha, a group OF buildings
mile from the Mexican federal posi-
ton. Twelve soldiers were killed and
three Mauser rifles We're captured.
Later in the day an attempt to re-
lieve an outpost. failed. and the rein
forcements driven back iuto the city.

That President Diaz and Minister

that Minister Limantour returned to
Mexico with the intention of urging
the president along some line leading
to a peaceable solution of the revolu-

lief tonight was that the action of
the ministers today is the indirect re-
