MEXICAN REBELS
BADLY BEATEN
Army is Routed By MaderO'S
Regulars

Mexico City, Nov. S.-A crushing
defeat was administered to the Zapa-
tista rebels in the fighting around
Cuernavaca. The rebels left more
than 100 dead on the battlefield and
the remnants of Gen. DeLaos band
sought refuge in the mountains, where
pursuit is difficult. The federal loss
is reported slight.
The fighting around Cuernavaca,
which is the capital of the state OF
Morelos, continued for four days. The
number of dead and wounded left on
the field indicates that the federal
artillery which arrived Wednesday at
a critical moment in the fighting,
wrought havoc in the rebel ranks.
The column of infantry brought up
by Gen. Banquet was composed og
veteran warriors, who with the artil-
lery soon turned the tide in favor of
the government and put the rebels to
flight.

lion Short Tons.

Owing to the great activity which
is now manifest in the Bull mountain
coal field, Musselshell county, Mont,
the United States Geological survey
has made a careful estimate Of the
amount of coal in that field to sup
plement it's geological reports pub
lished in Bulletins 3s1 and 43l. Ac-
cording 70 the present figures, the field
originally contained in beds IA inches
or more in thickness 4,797, 100000 short
tons OF coal. A small part OF this
quantity has already been mined, but
by comparison with the total coal
content the amount removed is almost
negligible. In using the figures given
above it should be remembered, how
ever, that they are intended to include
all the coal contained in this field
and no allowance has been made for
waste in mining. According to the
present mining practice throughout the
country probably only 60 per cent of
the total coal in the ground is put
upon the market. but ii is hoped that

efficient methods will enable the opera

The l9l1 assessment OF Nusselshell
county was completed last Saturday
by County Assessor Park and his
force OF deputies and turned over to
the clerk and recorder On Monday
morning the county commissioners
met as board OF equalization and
have been in session all week going
over the figures. Very few taxpayers
appeared before the board to make
objections to their assessments, and
but few changes We're made. The
board expects to get through with the
equalization job tomorrow evening.
\ decrease of 500 $4,000 is shown
in the valuation of the county from
last year. this being caused princi-
pally by the fact that real estate of
the county, not including city and
town lots, was assessed at $444,022
less than in 1911. Practically all the
other items in the list showed sub
stantial gains. 1t is estimated that
had the same rate OF assessment been
followed last year, the total valuation
of the county would have easily ex-
ceeded $11 100000. II this would have
been the case the county would have
advanced into another class and the
expenses OF conducting it increased
quite materially. The state levy also
would be proportiOnately larger
Coal reservations OF the n. p rail-
way were returned by Assessor Park
at approximately $30O,00O.0O, but the
board seems to be in favor Of elimi-
mating this for the reason that there
is a question as to its taXability. This
same item was stricken out last year.
The county commissioners are adj
verse to entering into any litigation
concerning this point.
The total valuation of the county as
returned by the assessor is $6.774S97.
this total not including the railroad
valuation which is added by the state
board. Last year the railroads were
assessed at close to $2,00O,000.
Below is printed the assessments Of
1911 and 1912 SO as to permit ready
comparison.
