This information is contained in a

protection Of his guns.
Rebel Force Double Federals
How many rebels are engaged in the
attack on Tampico is not known. but
it is estimated that their number is at
least twice that of the Federals and
their operations indicate that they ex-
pect more men from Victoria. capital

done this line, while enough to pre-
vent the operation OF trains, is not so
great that it will long delay a re.
sumption of traffic. Most OF the de.
stroyed bridges being small ones can
be easily replaced. Repairs to the
road southwark from Victoria also are
being rushed. and it is not improbable
that the rebels will Ue able TO trans
