April 9.-Although beseiged by a force three times their number Ojedas federals today continued their aggressive fighting by brilliant sallies state troops attempted to attack. the little bare footed soldiers met them not alone with fire from the trenches, but in charges, retreats and counter charges.

Gales soon fell back and the full force of three hundred federalS continued on until it encount- cred the command of Bracamento and theYaqui Indian division. All but one machine gun of the constitutionalists was silenced, but soon the gunners re- maining with the piece were slaught- cred by shrapnel steel from the ad- vancing federals. Then Ojeda retreat ed rapidly to his base.
 In close fighting, the state troops for while pressed the garrison defenders but with no result. Ojeda, however, lost many capable men among them Captain Mendosa, who had shown gre at valOr in the early fighting.
