BROWNSVILLE, Tex. June 8.
In a spectacular battle, which
lasted from 10 a. m. until late
this afternoon, federal troops were
driven from every position they
occupied in and around Matamoras
by constitutionalists, and the city
Is practically in the hands Of the
rebels tonight. Reports indicate
that the losses OIL both sides were
heavy. The fighting was desperate.
The federals are now entrenched
within the city, but it is believed
that they cannot hold out much
longer, as the copstitutionalists
are constantly receiving reinforce
ments.
Matamoras is the Mexican port
of entry opposite Brownsville.
Major Estaban Ramos, federal
commander of tho garrison, was so
badly wounded in the dght that he
died in a Brownsville hospital to-
night. Captain velez. two lieutcn-
ants and 4 score of other federal
officers also were killed, it is re-

While handful of men still was offer.
ing dogoed resistance to the rebel
troops Of General Lucio Blanco, econ
stltutIonalist commander chief of
the state of Tamaulipas, at 10 clock
tonight, Matamoras, Mex. practically
is in the hands of the rcvoIutionists,
after a battle waged without inter
ruption since 1880 o'clock this morn
ing. Colonel Esceretasta, with 100
volunteers, remnants of the federal
garrison, is making the last stand from
the roofs of the cathedral and theater
in Hidala plaza, but their subsection
before morning is regarded as certain.
Early tonight flames in several sec
tions of the battle-scarred city lighted
the sky for miles around and for a
time it was feared that the town was
doomed.
At 10 o o'clock, however, the fires had
burned down. The toll Of death on
both sides has been heavy.
u. S. Soldier Wounded.
A soldier Of the United States
cavalry was wounded by stray shot
while patroling the border on the Amer
lean side OF the Rio Grande, and ru-
mors are persistent that Miguel Bar
ragan, mayor of Matamoras, was shot
and killed late today. These could not
be confirmed. Authentic estimates Of
the dead and wounded will not be
available before tomorrow. One re-
port brought by refugees was that be-
tween 200 and 300 of the cornbatants
had been killed and double that num-
bcr wounded.
The United States consulate, where
Consul j. H. Johnson and his staff re-
mained throughout the fighting, was In
the direct line Of fire the greater part
of the day, but 1t was stated that none
of those in the building was wounded.
One hundred and twelve Of the fed
eral troops crossed to Brownsville this
afternoon and surrendered to the
United States military authorities.
Dynamite Is Used.
Shortly after 10 'clock tonight the
firing slackened, but the rebels CON
tinued to hurl dynamite at intervals in
an effort TO dislodge the Escherta
force. The rebels began general ad-
vance toward the main part of Mata-
moras at $3.50 o'clock this afternoon.
Within an hour they had taken the
customs Office at the terminus of the
bridge and almost stimuli
the customs house at the
ferry connecting Brownsville and
Santa Cruz, suburb of Matamoras.
After that the fight was gradually
narrowed to Hidala plaza,
Among the buildings ignited bv
rebel shells and destroyed were twelve
dwelling houses in the center of the
city, including the home of Mayor
Barragan.
1t was estimated that Blanco 3 army
numbered about 1900 men. while the
federal garrison was composed Of less
than third of that number.

Musky short stop failed to handle a

the locals would rally ind win de-

fact could not be accomplished. Miller

the sixth inning.
Curtis, who was the first man at
bat for Muscatine stepped into one

ball into deep right-deeper than It
had ever been planted on the home
lot before. He would have been out
