ED SEVERAL DAYS

At General Orozco's Headquarters
Jimenez, Mex, May 24.--General Oroz
co today declared the revolutionary
cause in Mexico had not suffered as
a result Of the defeat at Rellano yes
terday by General Huerta's federal
forces. Scarcity Of ammunition, the
superior artillery fire of the federals
and the intolerable heat made it nee
essaryf to cease fighting.
The rebels did not disband nor re-
tire in disorder. They stood valiatnly
in their positions until ordered to turn
from the battlefield. General 0rozco
arrived here today making this town
once more his headquarters while the
vanguard of the army is at CorraIitos.
Il do not consider this as indicative
Of the overthrow Of the revolution (
said General Orozco. we shall CON
tinue fighting and in the end we shall
win. Guerrilla warfare will not be
resorted to as has been stated by enc
mics OF the revolution"
The rebels today prepared for re-
OF the campaign. All can
non were saved The rebel loss is
placed at not more than 100, Bachim-
ba, 46 mides south of the city OF Chi
huahua, probably will be the scene Of
the next combat. The fighting Is grad
ually drawing closer to Chihuahua,
he largest city in northern Mexico.
Many bridges were burned in the re-
treat by the rebels and if they move
even further north beyond Bachimba
o Ortiz, the destruction Of a large
bridge there is likely to delay the fed
eral advance a long time.
