After II Hours of
Bloody Fighting.
AGAIN FIRE ACROSS THE LINE

Aqua Prieta, Mexico, April IL
(From the Associated Press cor
respondent in the field ENDING
only with darkness, and then with
out final victory, the most impor-
tant battle Of the Mexican revolu-
ton was fought here to-day between
1000 federals under-.--Lient,-Col~-
Diaz, and 1000 rebels under Bal
asaio Garcia.
Two hundred federals were killed
according to the rebels, who put
their own casualties at twenty.
Despite the previous warnings
given by the United States to the
leaders of both forces, rain of bull
let's poured into the American town
of Douglas, wounding several non
combatants, and causing terror, I'M
til firing ceased at $50 o'clock to-
night.
The federals made two attacks,
each time being repulsed, and when
]
their two field guns behind, to be
taken into the rebel lines.
A hail of bullets from the ma
chine guns gave the rebels notice of
a final advance at dawn. The reb-
els directed their fire at the crews
manning the machine guns. but the
federal fire was so fierce that the
rebels were forced back to their sec
ond line of entertainments.
As the federals advanced, the reb-
els FIRE became effective, and after
three hours fighting the federals
began retreating.
At II O'Clock the repulsed feder-
ais again advanced, with the rebels
encouraged by early success, re-
turning the fire eagerly After con-
tinued fighting. the federals again
found the rebels too strong and fell
mack. firing as they retired, leaving
field and machine guns to the rem
els
More than half Of Douglas watch
ed the battle from beginning to end.
Col. Schunk, commanding the Unit
ed States troops at Douglas, rushed
e6ur troops of cavalry to the bounda-
ry line and took every possible pre-
caution for the safety of the citi-
Gems, keeping ttem out of that por-
ton of the city considered most
exposed.
Every indication points to q re-
sumption OF the fighting tonight or
tomorrow. If the federals should
prove successful, it means that the
. battle will be carried to the streets
of 4 qua Prieta, with increasing men,
ace to the citizens of Douglas.
There is a movement tonight
among the leading citizens of Doug
las to send large number of tele-
grams to President Taft, asking him
TO safeguard at any cost the lives of
the United States citizens.
Desreratc Fi"hting.
Aqua Prieta, April 17.-Bulle-
tin-At 1890 o'clock tonight the
battle between the Mexican federals
and insurrectos which began at
dawn this morning, is still in prog
ress, and the fighting has been car
ried to the boundaries of Aqua
Prieta bv the federals. Bv desper-
ate night attack the federals re-
aained the ground lost in the day,
The indications were that daylight
would find the opposing armies en-
gagged in a hand-to-hand conflict.
