 TuTloNALlsTs AT oJINAGA,
LONS SEIGE IS EXPECTED
City Occupies Commanding Hill and Is We'll Fortified by the Federals-De sertions Reported from Federal Army at Guaymas.

Juarez, Mexico. Dec 1l.-Convincel that Gen. Salvador Mercade with his 1000 soldiers, the largest body of fed. erals in the north, is preparing at Ojinaga, on the border opposite Presi- dio. Texas, to make a desperate stand against an attack, thge rebel forces to day sent an artillery regiment with ten cannon to reinforce the 3.509 rebels already approaching Ojnaga.
 Until the outcome of the situation at Ojinaga is determined Gen. Fran. cisco Villas march with his rebel army southward to Torreon and Zaca. teas will be checked The rebel lead. CT, now at Chihuahua, informed his headquarters in Juarez that he would not leave the north with federal troops behind him. He ordered the artillery sent to Ojinaga in the belief that the town would have 10 be beseiged be- cause the federals have built exten- slye defenses there. II is believed an attack at Ojiuaga would Dc of long duration, as the town stands on a hill and from the forts the fcde-als have a sweeping survey of the approaches During the Madero revolution the place held out long against superior nun, bers, even though the water supply had rcen cut of and a fortified ditch from tae river mad to be dug.
 The only guns the federals have at Ojnaga are those which they car. ried with them in their retreat from Chihuahua and these are believed by the rebels 10 be few because the fed. erals lost heavily in ammunition and arms in their fights south of 1uarez.
 Five federal soldiers were killed eight miles south of Juarez today. They had taken refuge in an adobe house. when the federals retreated soutp more than ten days ago, Before be- ing taken they held off several nun dred rebels for hours, but finally wero OyerCpoWereed.

Fighting at Tampico.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The fighting between constitutionaists and feder- ais at Tampico, Mexican seaport of strategic importance, was recognizes by administration officials here as likely to have a considerable effect on the immediate progress of the reyolu- tion in Mexico.
 The possession of port where mum itions of war could be landed safely from abroad, as well as the revenues that would be acquired through the collection of customs receipts there, would greatly aid the constitutional- ists' cause, in the view of the of iicials.
 Reports of the fighting received ss the Navy Department today showed that the constitutionalists were mak- ing an aggressive attack.
 Secretary Bryan conferred during the day with Secretary Daniels ove- dispatches from Rear Admiral Fetch CT, and both seemed confident that Americans and other foreigners would not be endangered. The taking of British and German refugees aboard English and German vessels and the gathering of a number of Americans on the American ships relieved of- ficials somewhat of anxiety. Though there is every assurance that foreign CTS who had gone to a zone assigned as neutral, would not be Iioies ted ted, f a.. a: Admiral Fletcher will be expected to take them aboard ships in the harbor if danger arises.
 Automatically there was no develop ment in the situation. It became known that the movement of British vessels from the West Indies to Mex ican waters was in accord with pre- vious notifications to the State Depart ment

COLD STORAGE TRUST
 PROVES ONLY A MYTH
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE CAN NOT DISCOVER ONE IF IT Ex-
 lsTs IN THIS COUNTRY.

Washington, Dec. 11.-After seyeera. weeks of investigation over the entire United States officials of the Depart ment of Justice have reached the con clusion that there is little ground for belief that a nationwide cold storage trust exists. Every United States at torney in the country was pressed ill to service for quick survey of the cold storage field and their reports to Washington indicate that while com pines have been formed in a few oi the large cities, there is no reason Je believe that there is cold stora ge trust controlling the price of eggs and other products in all parts of tine coun Itry.
 Sufficient evidence has been forth coming, however. to show that in some of the cities such combinations do ex ist and the department already has turned it's attention to more careful scrutiny of the operations of cold sto rage men there. Its next step will DC to trace the lines of interstate com bination between the dealers in these large cities, for without connection be tween them across state lines tine Sher man act would not be available and the departments effort to bring down the cost of living by the breaking O. monopoly Or two would hardly bt successful
 The nationwide inquiry has tended to put the Department of Jsutice oI the side of the Department of Agri culture placing much of the blame fol high egg and poultry prices, not oI cold storage men. but on the hen. Ac cording to reports so far at hand, colt storage men have suffered from marked lack of eggs and other prod ucts and the prices have gone up fo this reason. United States attorney have sent word to Washington in man,
 instances that cold storage dealer
 in their territory have stocks on han
 far under stocks in previous years am that they sec little prospect of relic
 unless the hens heed the appeal an | get busy at once.

Huerta Not Disturbed.

Mexico City, Dec. 1.-The knowl- edge that Tampico was in danger of falling into rebel hands did not appear to disturb President Huerta in his routine of affairs and this afternoon he was the guest of honor at q ban quet at -Tacubayaa a. suburb, to cele- bTate the inauguration of the interur- ban railway. Gen. Huerta gave the impression that he was not troubled by the possible outcome of events at Tampico.
 At the time of the celebration, ac- cording to private message. fighting was in progress at Tampico, the reb- els being in possession of the freight yards at Dona Cecelia, between Tam pico and the coast. from which point the federals had been forced back into the city. Official messages indicated that the federals would be able to re- sist the attack, but the same note of optimism was lacking in the few mes sages received here.
 The anxiety felt at the capital on account of the foreigners at Tampico
 has been allaysd by the information that many of them have been taken aboard foreign steamers, including the Kronprinzess Cecilia of the Hamburg American line. This steamer was to have left Tampico today, but her sail ing has been delayed indefinitely in order that she might become the ref uge of foreigners as long as necessary.
