Completely Demoralized.

General Alfaro Obregon, commander OF
west, remained here today The federal
officers who arrived assisted in locating
the scattered groups OF deserting federals.
The deserters did not constitute any one
command, the officers said but came
from various regiments and battalions.
This was taken as an indication OF. the
complete decentralization OF the federal
garrison.
There are 100 Mayo Indians troops sta,
toned here under command OF General
Juan Ca brai. and 1900 insurgent troops

impoverishment and an increasing or
ganization among scores of rebel bands
have reduced the provisional govern
ment TO what appears TO be desperate
situation, but conservative residents OF
the federal capital profess to believe,
in view of the recent military opera
tions and the fact that Provisional
President Huerta continues to secure
money, even though in small amounts,
that the government may not fall for
many months unless some unexpected
turn for the worse occurs.
This was pay day for government en-
p!oyees and in almost all departments
there was little delay in meeting the
pay rolls. That the government may not
be able to float another loan is con-
ceded by Mexicans generally, but none
has lost sight OF the fact that the
country is rich and that General Huerta
as last resort would not hesitate to
take money where he could find it.
Already the cabinet has discussed the
confscation of the property OF all in
dividuals who are known to have ar
rayed themselves against the Huerta
government. The measure has not yet
received the full approval of the min
listers, but if adopted it will prove a
rich resourre

Collections that fall little short Of
being forced have been made In cities
outside the capital, and Provisional

the failure Of the rebels to take Tam

Monterey Of 5000 federal troops, are
looked upon by military men as indi-
cations that the swinging advance of
the rebel army has been slowed up and
that from now on, as their campaign is
carried further into the heart OF the re-
public, their progress necessarily must
be slower.

Why They Remained.

AS this In essence Is not wholly the
truth OF what has taken place. 1t
gives me great pleasure to Inform
you that all those who had intended
TO leave have not done SO, not be-
cause have detained them, but be-
cause they would not leave unless ac-
conpanied by certain individuals who
for which they are responsible. Up
TO the present time no orders have
been given which prevent any families
who wish TO leave from SO doing:
On the contrary, ! have even offered
to give them special train, which
would convey them to the frontier,
which I am st!Il disposed to do.

Plan of Rebels.


Tampico will be easy prey for the reb-
els or the next attack and that after
capturing the port they may be expect
ed TO do one OF two things-eitber ad-
vance to the center OF the country and
attack San Luis Potosi or return north
ward and fight for the possession of
Monterey.
Military men believe the rebels are
unlikely TO commit the tactical error
of moving on San Luis Potosi and leav-
ing the largest modified government
forces in their rear at Monterey. The
same military authorities do not believe
that q successful attack On Monterey
would be a simple task,
At the war office here IL is not con-
ceded that the rebels would be able TO
take Tampico defended AS it is by 1000
or more federals. with the guns of the
warship Bravo and Vera Cruz. On the
other hand the rebels, it IS known, can
bring TO the attack at least 5000 men
and a few pieces of artillery. General
Zapata g threats TO enter the city of
Mexico, while creating some slight
anxiety, are not taken seriously by
most people, who believe that ne will
obey General Carranza and wait until
his forces are joined by men from the
north.
A report that President Huerta ha:
almost no ammunition left in the city

Makes Comparison.

I also wish to state. and hope
that with your accustomed imparti-
ality In these matters you will make
Il known to your honorable secre-
tary OF state, that our conduct can
not be compared to that OF the
Huertaistas. for II is well known that
the families Of our followers are
transported by the Huertaistas from
one place to another in trains carry
ing soldiers and munitions OF war,
thus hoping to avoid attacks by our
forces. Our families also are sent TO
the Maria Islands. which have been
the abode OF petty thieves and low
born criminals.
I take pleasure In treating in de-
tail with matters which bring to light
the difference OF procedure between
the government OF Usurper Huerta
and that which we are trying to i'm
plant for the welfare OF our coun-
try-a legal and noble one.
