in times past, but battle in which
the contendlng forces employed heavy
than half q mile in a densely populated
city was a new and startling spectacle.
Little Warning to NOn-COmbatants.
Beyond that issued by the American
ambassador. practically no warning
was given to non combatants to retire
TO place OF safety. AS a matter of
TACT II was impossible to mark the
limitations Of the danger zone.
As the battle proceeded, shells in
tended for the enemy, four blocks
away, often found lodgment in houses
a mile OF two miles distant. Rifle bull
lets flew from the center to the cir
cumference- Of the capital, making

The heaviest line Of fire was early
established along Balderas street the
cannon OF the opposing forces shooting
The federals at the north end Of the
line used battery OF guns brought
from Cuernavaca-
The extremities OF the dueling ground
were defended by detachments of in
1antry and machine guns a rain of bull
lets from which swept the Intervening
space.
American Consulate Damaged.
It was this engagement which re-
suited in damage to the American con-
sulaIe general The building stands a

It suffered not more than some of
the other buildings, but bursting shells
from the rebel positions rendered the
place untenable, and the consul general.
Arnold Shanllin, and his staff. at the
y suggestion Of ambassador Wilson, eVac-
uated the place and took refuge in the
embassy Their escape from the build
ing was ACCOMPLISHED at great risk.
Diaz Men In Y. N. c. A.
The assault against the rebel posi-
lions in this avenue finally was aban-
doned. What undoubtedly contributed
greatly to the rebels ability to resist
this movement was the position OF the
Young Mems Christian association
| building, a seven story structure, less
/ than two blocks from the arsenal
Early in the morning Diaz appropriated
the edifice, routing the foreigners from
their rooms and the dormitOries and
supplantng the occupants with ma

the roof top the muzzles Of autOmatcs

was the only one left standing, Chavez
reported
From Colonia Diaz Gomez told the
natives that he intended to 90 to the
other colonies and destroy them in
turn, afterwards continuing the work
of destruction until all of the ranch
houses, American and Mexican alike
were destroyed His reason for the
burning Of the homes was that he in
tended to force all Of the Mexicans to
join his movement and he would make
it impossible for them to work on the
ranches and live in their houses.
No Americans There
There were no American settlers in
Colonia Diaz at the time Of the burning

refuge in the United States. The norm

ordered bv Madero, in spite Of the
friendly offer Of Francisco de Ia Barra,
the former provisional president, to
act as mediator and over the protest
of the American ambassador and the
diplomatic representatives OF the other
Foreign powers, even though he knew
that this would entail a terrific bonn
bardment Of the capital.
Chapultepec Not sheIIed.
From above the captured arsenal.
Gen. Felix Diaz flOated his red flag Of
defiance. The rebels appeared no less
ready for battle than the federals. Or
ders were issued to the detachments
guarding all approaches to the arsenal
to retire On the appearance Of any
armed force. But Diaz did not rely
entirely on his forces in the arsenal
district. He detached a few hundred
men with artillery 10 a point in the
northwest of the city.
These guns dominated Chapultepec,
but instead OF Smelling the old castle
they were held in readiness to strike
the federals in the flank or rear.
Foreign Flags Raised.
The American ambassador, Henry
Lane Wilson, published a warning to
all Americans, urging them not to go
unnecessarily into the danger zone.
From hundreds OF buildings nOated the
flags Of foreign nations, and early in
the day a crowd of foreigners cOngre-
gated in the cable office, sending re-
assuring messages to relatives and
friends abroad.
The Zapatistas did not enter the cap

Conferes Labor Through

Democratic Bill.
NO MATERIAL CHANGES
May Pass Resolution Binding
Party Members to Support
Administration Program.

Washington, Nov. 27.-Thanksgiv
ing was spent by the senate democrats
hard at work in conference on the cur
rency bill. Leaders declared the bill
with possibly one section excepted,
would be completed, ready for consid-
Grafton by the senate, when the con-
ference finished the evening session.
In the absence of Hitchcock, no one
presented the amendments he and five
republicans of the committee had
framed. and the conference sped
through section after section, endors-
ing the Owens-Glass bill practically
without change.
1t WAS understood an attempt might
be made today to pass a resolution
binding the democrats in conference to
support the administration bill. Sen
ator Hitchcock was expected to refuse
to support the conference bill.
Lane Remains Out.
Lane of Oregon has so far declined
to go into the conference. and New
lands, while attending. has an original
plan he intends to press on the floor
of the senate. The detection of three
senators might imperil the majority in
the senate if the republican lines hold.
