TELLS OF HORRIBLE
CONDITIONS IN THE
MEXICAN CAPITAL

vegetables and other farm products to
reach the city for some days. During
the night quantities enter, but not
nearly enough to supply the demand,
and meat is something with which
thousands have had no acquaintance
for days.
Neither the forces loyal to President
Francisco Madero nor those commanded
by the rebel, Felix Diaz, had been de-
feated at the close of fighting in tho
center of Mexico City on Monday night.
Nor did neither side show indications
of giving way.
The operations of the day added an
other chapter to the records of the
desolation and anxiety caused by the
constant bombardment which had last
ed over q week. The scene of the
struggle remained in the streets of the
capital. which were practically deserted
by all but the military. the inhab-
itants having either departed to the
outer suburbs or taken refuge in cell
lars
Action Throughout Day
The government maintained in action
throughout the days fighting the usual
number of batteries of artillery and
added a heavier piece than any pre-
viously used. Late in the afternoon
the federal commander placed at the
guns which had been intended for the
fortifications of Salina Cruz, the Pa
cific terminus of the Tehauntepec rail-
road
In spite of these heavy pieces being
brought into action against the rebel
positions Diaz and his followers ap-
pear to have suffered only slightly.
Shot for shot the rebel artillery re-
piled. at time silencing temporarily the
governments runs
1t was another day of artillery fight
ing without any decisive results being
achieved. Late in tho evening, when
the firing had become more or less
casual. there was no reason to believe
that Tuesday would not see a continua-
ton of what had become one OF the
most remarkable battles fought on the
American continent in recent years.
Felix Diaz had at the end of the day
succeeded in holding all his central po-
sitions and had even advanced his lines
In a number of directions, especially
towards the west
Beside the heavier artillery, he brought
into action during the day some small
bomb throwing pompoms whose peculiar
roar added materially to the never end
ing noise of firing.
Rifle balls slipped far out of the actual
zone of fighting into all quarters of the
city, one of them embedding itself during
the day in the kitchen of the United
States embassy.
Many shells burst over the central part
of the city. On the line of fire from
the rebel center at the arsenal towards
the federal headquarters at the national
palace the destruction of private and pub
lie buildings increased considerably.
Almost all the American residents took
advantage of the Sunday truce to seek
places OF safety. Most of them retired
to the vicinity of the United States em-
bassy. but by Monday night it became
evident that the safety to be found here
was more fancied than real.
The government, however, was honest
In its efforts not to involve foreigners.
Up to a late hour the federal commander
had not placed any of his batteries in
such positions as would draw fire in the
direction of the foreigners.

Apprehension Among Refugees


Some apprehension, however, was felt
by the refugees on account of the steady
advance of the rebel lines. The insurgent
outposts had crawled far out to the west
of the city, apparently with the object
Of obtaining position whence they
could attack from the flank the federal
artillery in the north and west which
had kept up its pounding of the rebel
positions with monotonous regularity.
If the rebels succeeded in carrying out
their thanking movement it was only
natural that the federal artillery should
fire across at them. This would bring
the embassy district directly into line
The embassy building itself was not more
than two blocks distant from the repel
outpost
General Victoriano Huerta, commander
in chief of the federal troops. issued or
ders to Col. Rubio Navarette, chief OF
artillery, under no circumstances to use
lis cannon to rid the district of rebel
sharpshooters or small groups. but to re-
serve their fire for attacking the rebel
fortified positions OF to resist an assault.

HOUSE VOTES TO END
VOTERS ASSISTANCE
Bill Limits Aid to Those Act.
uaI,y AeIpless.

Harrisburg, Pa, Feb. 2O.-The "as-
sistance to voters" bill, introduced al
the instance of the legislative COM
mittee of the Republican state COM
mittee, passed finally in the house by
a vote of IA to 81, after a debate
which was productive of much polltl-
cal oratory intended for hole con-
sumption"
The measure was introduced by j..
R. Jones, of Schuylkill county. 1t pro-
vides that a voter, to receive ASST
ance at the polls, must be blind, must
have lost both hands or be paralyzed.
Jones, arguing for the strict limita'
ton placed upon assistance, declared
that the Committee of Seventy OF
Philadelphia reported that in the fall
election of 1910 in that city no fewer
than 4O,O16 voters had been assisted
in 833 precincts.
Mr.. Speiser, Republican organiza-
ton member from South Philadelphia,
challenged the accuracy of the Seven.
tvs figures.
II do not believe" he declared, that
the committees figures are correct.
They were made for political effect
If the committees money had not run
out I suppose that 1t would have had
little trouble in increasing the size OF
it's assertion as regards the number
OF voters assisted in Philadelphia"
March II was fixed by the house as
the last day upon which bills may be
introduced, unless the measures are
local legislation requiring advertise
ment before presentation. This action
wa staken on a report from the com
mittee on rules. The resolution was
adopted without opposition.
