GOVERNMENT UNABLE TO
ROUT GENERAL DIAZ.
Diaz Holds His Position and An
nOunces He Will Fight to
the Death for Cause.
Madero Expects to Compel Diaz to
Surrender To-day-Colonel
Castillo Killed.

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 1.-THE fed
erals and rebels fought a seven-hour
drawn battle in the heart OF the city
today. When darkness put an end
to the fighting neither side appeared
TO have gained any marked advantage.
Estimates of the casualties run an
high as 1000. although accurate in
formation cannot be obtained at this
time. The dead certainly will be
counted by the hundreds.
Foreign residents for the most part
kept under cover. but three Americans
were known to have suffered injuries
from stray bullets. They are Lloyd
Osbourne, the author, who was shot
in the thigh; DIR. X. II. McCrosson, OF
Lincoln. Neb, and Mark johnson. a
negro, of Madison, Ill.
Artillery played the chief part in
the days fighting. but rife fire was
Kept up continuously though more
or less ineffectively. President Ma
dero and his ministers expressed sat
isiaction tonight with the days work
and ventured the opinion that to-mor-
rev would see the overpowering OF
the enemy.
Diaz Defiant.
General Felix Diaz. in his arsenal
stronghold, appeared as defiant as at
any time since he was released from
prison by the mutinous soldiers, and
promises a repetition tomorrow OF
the terrific bombardment, the fierce
ness OF which is attested by the many
partially destroyed structures within
radius OF half a mile.
The greatest toll resulted in a
charge OF rurales who. with a dar-
ing amounting to foolhardiness,
moved against rebel battery, which
moved down men and horses almost
to extinction.
The execution done in the prolonged
engagement OF to-day was sufficient,
In the belief OF Senor De La Barra
and che diplomatic representatives
To warrant a further attempt to pre-
vent another battle within the city.
Demands Disz's Surrender.
Senor De La Barra ser. n message
to President Madero, saying:
In the name of humanity and as
Mexican who is free OF ali political
and revolutionary parties. I wish to
offer my services in any way possible
20 effect peace without further blood
shed"
Madero replied. thanking him, but
declaring that no terms other than an
unconditional surrender could be made
with Diaz
That the president is determined TO
make this a finish fight Is evident,
though not more so than Diaz, who
realizes that there will be no clemency
In case OF surrender
Almost within a stones throw OF
each other. these two fighting forces,
each armed with more than twenty
cannon, are tearing at each others
throat. and they expect to continue
the struggle regardless OF the Incl
dental lot.
Madero Silent.
